Q: How do i give my husband his own Apple ID.

My husband had an iphone 2 years ago but didn't have a private email address...so we used mine. I therefore got and Apple ID. I have no got an iphone and as soon as I put my email and password in everything downloaded from his phone onto mine.His phone went mad with emails saying another device had been registered ..ws this correct etc.. We need to seperate his account from mine. How do we give him his own Apple ID without losing anything on his phone??

iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.2

1. Create a new user account on your computer unless he has his own computer: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
2. Have him open iTunes in his separate user account. Click on the Login link.
3. Click on the Create New button to start the process.

He will need to set up a separate email account for his use. That email address will be the one to use for his Apple ID.
