Right now my son's iPod 4s is synced to my Apple ID, however he is now old enough for his own Apple ID. If I create a new one for him, will he lose all of the apps currently on his iPod? If so, is there a way to recover them?
iPod touch, iOS 6.1.5
No, no content will be deleted bu chanign the Apple ID used for Settings>iTune and App Store. If y change it in Settings>iCloud and Settings> GameCenter you wil lose Contact. Calndrs and Notes some other stuff.
The Apple ID is also used for Settings>Messges>Send and Receive and Settings>FaceTime
Note:
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
