Apple ID
Your Apple ID is the account you use for just about everything you do with Apple, including
storing your content in iCloud, downloading apps from the App Store, and buying music, movies,
and TV shows from the iTunes Store.
If you already have an Apple ID, use it when you rst set up iPhone, and whenever you need
to sign in to use an Apple service. If you dont already have an Apple ID, you can create one
whenever youre asked to sign in. You only need one Apple ID for everything you do with Apple.
For more information, see appleid.apple.com.
