Profile pictures update to the same picture on different AppleIDs

My wife and have our own unique AppleIDs. Every time one of us updates our profile picture it then propagates to the other's profile picture, as well. We have tried it multiple times, after multiple OS and iOS updates, but no changes. Our iMac is a 2020 Intel-based running Ventura 13.0 and our iPhones are both 13 Pros running 16.6.1. If anyone has a clue, please let me know.

iMac 27″, macOS 13.0

Hi joshuafromfishers,


You haven't specified where the profile picture changes, exactly. It's possible to change this for your Apple ID, or an account on the Mac. We assume you're referring to the local user account on the Mac.


With that said, the only way it would change is if one of the accounts is logged in with the other person's Apple ID.


We'd recommend checking that and making sure they're each signed in correctly as outlined in Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support


Cheers.
