We have two iPads. mine is the first one purchased. I opened iTunes to put some photos from the Mac to my wife's iPad. I plugged in my wife's iPad. Both ipads have the same apple id and password. iTunes synced everything from my iPad to my wife's iPad. Now we have two identical iPads looking like mine. Everything on her ipad seems gone and replaced with mine, all her recent holiday photos, emails, settings, etc etc seem gone.
I'm toast!
Help!!

If it really does not work, change your password here https://appleid.apple.com (Manage account) and try to add the account again. I hope it helps.

I have 2 ipod touch with the same apple id and password. Can I change the id and password on just one of them?

I bought a second ipod touch 4g for my daughter for Christmas amonth ago. I wanted to be sure it was Ok so
I "tested" it by signing up with the same Apple ID and password as MY touch. I assumed it would not be a major
problem to "clear" it so my daughter could set it up with her own account (Apple ID/email and password). I am
unsure HOW to do this. I have read several articles but none seem to be very clear. I do not want to cause any
"damage" to MY touch such as messing up my apps and itunes library. Any advice?

Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

I have 6 devices sharing the same apple id and password. when we download an app, for example a game, it backs up on all devise. therefore we can't run individual games. suggestion? thanks.

If you mean that is one persone purchases an app it appears on all device then on each device go to Settings>Store and turn off automatic downloads.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sigh Out of the Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Try using the Find My Friends app.

My husband just got an iphone. I've had mine for a while. We use the same email address so I though we could use the same apple id and password. But now it appears everything on my phone also shows up on his phone and vis versa, even "Notes." Not good.

Does home sharing allow my husband and I to share our itunes content? If so, how do we do that since it requires the use of the same Apple ID and password on each device to do so. His itunes is linked to his email and mine is linked to my email...

Does home sharing allow my husband and I to share our iTunes content? If so, how does this work? From what I've read to use home sharing the devices/computers all require the same Apple ID and password. My husbands iTunes is linked to his email/password and mine is my email/password. So if that's the case how to we go about sharing? God I hope that makes sense.

All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that bought them. To stop your id from popping up, you need to delete the apps on his phone, and then repurchase them under his account.

HT204053 Do you not use the same Apple ID and password as you would use for ITunes, IPhone and email?

Having already established 2 apple ID's. I want to change the ID listed on my iphone. Placing the new, ID on my phone it will not accept it.
Do you not use the same Apple ID and password as you would use for your IPHONE, EMAIL and ITUNES?

Where/how are you trying to replace it and what happens ? You should be able to log out of the currently logged in account for the stores by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and you should then be able to log in with a different account, and for icloud email via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars to delete and then add an account.

Same Apple ID and password

My husband and I both have the same user name and password. When we downloaded find my phone both devices show the location of my phone. How do we get my husband's phone to show up on one of the devices? Have iphone 5s, IOS 7.1.1,

Find My iPhone has to be activated on his device in iCloud, and he has to be signed into iCloud with the same Apple ID and password as you are. Downloading of Find My iPhone app does not activate Find My iPhone on the devices. That app is used to locate other iOS devices from your device, although it will also show the location of your own device. You do not have to have the app installed on the phone for Find My iPhone to work.
