One of the common things among Apple users is for the family to share one iTunes account, so that the father and wife use the same account on their iPhone and iPad, and also on the children's iPod, in order to benefit from using the application in more than one place. For example, the father buys an application so that his wife and children can download it for free. On their devices and also the father can find out the applications that his children have downloaded, which provides quick family control, but sometimes some problems happen to the users and they think that the iTunes account is the reason for them ... like this problem sent to us by one of the readers:
I have an iPhone and my brother has an iPhone, and I did a restore and update for my brother’s mobile, and I found that after the restore was made that my brother’s contacts moved to my iPhone, and that if my brother made any modifications to his contacts, the modification appears on my iPhone and I Likewise, if you made any modification that appears on his iPhone, whether the amendment was to delete contacts, add contacts, or modify. Note: My brother and I are using the same iTunes account

This problem puts the user at a loss, as he does not want to use more than one iToutz account because this means buying applications more than once and also no one can sacrifice his contacts and his calendar also because the modifications do not stop at contacts also, but the calendar is as well if the other party added Any appointment, it appears for you and therefore you are alerted to it and you do not want it And also notes, bookmarks, and even the photo streaming feature, if it is enabled.
The reason for this problem is that the device syncs the contacts list with Apple's cloud service or any similar service, but many users think that the Apple Store account must be the same as the cloud account, and this is not correct, so you can use one iTunes account on the iPhone and iPad And iPod Touch, but you put in each of them a completely different cloud account, so do the following steps on every device that you share with you
1 Go to Settings> iCloud and choose Delete Account, and you will see the following confirmation message

2 Choose Delete and the device will ask you what you want to work with the contacts and calendars on this phone, of course choose “Save on iPhone Not to delete the caller list and other important data.

3 Now create a new cloud account and sync the contacts and all your data with it.

Now if you buy any application, your wife or brother who uses the same iTunes account will be able to download them for free and at the same time if they make any additions or modifications to the list of names in their devices, calendar or reminders, these modifications will not appear in your device, meaning that the devices have become Completely separate. Can refer to This is an important article It offers several methods to save contacts from loss.
Notes:
- Do not share an iTunes account with any stranger, as he may change the password and steal all of your applications purchased on the same account.
- It is preferable that you do not share an iTunes account with more than five individuals because in the case of more than five, you will not be able to upgrade applications through the iTunes application.
- Do not let merchants install applications for you, this is very dangerous and it is easy to install a spy application or even have the device send pictures to their account
- Check your cloud settings, so you can switch off whatever you want and unlock whatever you want, you are a professional guy trust your ability to understand the technology
