[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1838234, member: 46727"] Apple IDs are assigned to individuals not computers. Probably the best way is to have each family member with their own account on the machine, but keep yourself as the only Admin account. Each family member can if they desire create their own Apple ID and password. Be aware though... that each new Apple ID that is created will be required to also invoke 2FA. Do some reading about 2FA before you decide. [url=https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204915]Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support[/url] [/QUOTE]
