My husband and I share the same apple id on 2 different phones. I want him to have his own id. I made him a new apple id but I can't seem to change it on his iphone. When I tried to add it, it changed all my info on my phone. Will he lose any pictures or his apple music? Can anyone help me change it on his phone? Thanks!
When changing to the new ID, there may be some data loss, but you can minimize it. If syncing photos with iCloud, ensure Optimization is turned off in Settings/Your Name/iCloud/Photos and/or in Photos/Preferences/iCloud. Then make sure full resolution photos are on the device/computer. When signing out of iCloud, if asked whether you want to retain data, choose yes. Messages conversations will be lost if they are addressed to the ID. See the article below for other places that the old ID should be removed. See Winston Churchill's response in the below discussion. If possible, also set up Family Sharing between the IDs to keep access to your apps/purchases.
