    CHANGE ID

    The ID is used in the following locations and you  have to change them.

    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive

    Settings>FaceTime

    Settings>GameCenter

    Settings>iCloud

    and Settings>iTunes and App store

     

    You  have to sign out of ID (for iCloud you delete the iCloud account from the iPod) and sign in with other ID.

     

    Note the following are resolved if you  use Family Sharing (iOS 8 and later):

    - 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.

     

    If the iPod has iOS 7 or later then you have the enter the password for Apple ID presently sign in Settings>iCloud.

    Also, a Restriction can be set (Settings>General>Restrictions) the prevents changing accounts


    NOTE yo have to be at least 13 to create a regular Apple ID. However, with iOS 8 and Yosemite you can create a new Family ID for under 13.
