I am sharing an i-tune account and want to change to my own - how do I do this?

I am sharing an i-tune account with another user and I want to have my own. All was good until everything started getting shared in the cloud. How do I stop one account so I can add another?

iPhone 4S

You need to create your own Apple ID/iTunes account.


All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID used to download the apps, and the same for any other iTunes content downloaded with the Apple ID that includes DRM protection. Long story short, when downloading an app update for an app that was downloaded with the shared Apple ID, you must use that Apple ID and password to download the update.
