Howdy, cdpaul!


In order to set up another iCloud account, you'll first need to remove the existing iCloud account from one of the devices. The following article (while it may appear unrelated, I'll quote the relevant bit) contains steps for removing the existing iCloud account.


iCloud: Features that work with one account at a time on iOS 5 and OS X Lion or later

  1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

  2. Delete the secondary account.

  3. Tap the Back button.

  4. Tap iCloud.

  5. Delete the primary account.

  6. Add the secondary account that you want to be your primary account.


Once the account is removed, you can set up a new iCloud account, as detailed in this article:
