Can someone help me please!! I just switched my Samsung phone to an IPhone. The person at the TMobile store used my gmail to switch my data from old phone to the new one. I want to use my Apple ID on my iPad but I also don’t want to lose what he transferred…cell numbers, contacts, photos etc…
Is there a way to integrate them or use both apple id’s??
Thank you in advance!
iPhone 14 Plus
When changing to the new ID, make sure you turn off Find My Phone before signing out of the old ID. Once signed out and Find My Phone is off, then sign in with the new ID, then turn Find My Phone back on. 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.
