restore to a new apple id

I want to create a new apple id for a family member, and still be able to share everything. I just did a 'restore' from backup on her new (my old) iPhone, but I don't know how to separate our id's.

Hey there,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today. It sounds like you are currently sharing an Apple ID and want to now create a new Apple ID and share purchases.


Have a look here: How to create a new Apple ID.


After creating a new Apple ID, you can Set up Family Sharing.


If you are concerned about iCloud data (like Contacts or Photos) that was shared on the single Apple ID, you can look into archiving it: Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud and then add what is wanted to the new Apple ID.


Have a fantastic day!
