We bought a new Ipad, and when setting it up it is showing all my contacts, but also my daughter's contacts. We have tried to fix it and think it is something to do with Icloud, but even with Icloud off it still shows both sets of contacts.
How do we disable daughter's contacts and details off Ipad, but keep mine?
iPad, iPadOS 15
Are you currently, or have previously, shared the same AppleID account between yourself and your Daughter? If so, your Contacts (and potentially other personal data) may have been merged between AppleID accounts. Similarly, if you have given away (or acquired) a previously used device without first properly preparing the device for reuse, data may be unintentionally merged between user’s different AppleID accounts.
If all your devices are sharing a common AppleID for iCloud, you’ll encounter all kinds of issues with unintentional and/or unwanted sharing of sensitive/private information (including Contacts). You’ll not be able to reliably maintain any kind of data separation.
The Golden Rule: Don’t share an AppleID between users. Each user should always have their own AppleID for their own exclusive use - linked to their own primary email (and secondary/recovery email addresses and trusted telephone numbers).
If you haven’t already done so, you would be best advised to separate your digital identities and configure a new AppleID for those that don’t already have their own account.
After separating your identities, you can selectively share purchased Apple Services, Subscriptions, Apps and Media using Apple’s Family Sharing features:
Set up Family Sharing – Apple Support
Share App Store, iTunes Store and Apple Books purchases with Family Sharing – Apple Support
