I want to let my 90yo MIL use my old ipad so the kids can facetime with her. However, I don't want the older grandkids who may play around on the ipad while visiting to be able to access my information. I thought I could create her own user ID, but learned there is only one user allowed per device. Is there any way to make this happen?
iPad, iOS 8.1.3
No. The iPad is a single user device.
As Allan says, the iPad is a single user device.
However, you may be able to accomplish your objective using Guided Access, described here:
iOS: About Guided Access - Apple Support
Using Guided Access, you could conceivably hand the iPad to your mother-in-law allowing only FaceTime access.
