I have 2 users set up on my MacBook Air running macOS Monterey. Right now they are both set up with the same Apple ID. I would like to disconnect one of the MacBook users from that Apple ID. If I log out one of the users from that Apple ID, will the other user still stay connected to that Apple ID? I don't want to lose everything on the main user when I log out of the secondary user.
Thanks!

Hi PGAdams,
Logging out of an Apple ID for one user account would not effect any changes on the other. When signing out you may see a prompt to keep or delete the information for that user that's associated with the Apple ID but again, this should have no bearing on the second account. Sign in or out of your Apple ID on Mac details these steps further:
"Sign out of your Apple ID
Sign out of your Apple ID account to prevent others from accessing your account information and Apple services on your Mac—when you sell or give away your computer, for example. See the Apple Support article What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac.
> System Settings, then click [your name] at the top of the sidebar.Regards.
