Adding secondary Apple ID account to family sharing I was hoping to get some advice on how to go about removing my secondary Apple ID from my iCloud account and move that Apple ID to family sharing. I have 2 Apple IDs that I’ve had forever and all my purchases through the years have all gone to one ID so I’m not wanting to part with it. I have just found a lot of confusing information on Apple’s site and I don’t want to get locked out of that account. According to the article that I found I can only do this once every 90 days and if I do it no one can even access the movies and tv shows on that account. I was wanting to know if that was still the case if I added it to family sharing? Also should I sign out of other devices and HomePods before I do this?
