My dad made his Apple ID years ago, so everything ever purchased or associated with iTunes or apple whatsoever has been tied to this account. After trouble with linked contacts (mainly me having all four hundred thousand of his contacts on my phone and not being able to delete them because he loses them too) and countless other inconveniences, I've decided it's time to create my own apple id and iCloud account.
However, I've had my iPhone for about 5 years and restored from backups ever since then. I really don't want to have to lose all of my data, not to mention every app, song, or movie I've purchased through iTunes over the years. Also (last thing I promise), I think that any contacts I've added since the linked contacts update would be lost as well since they all seem to be connected through iCloud now. Is there any way to create my own accounts without losing all or any of this? Thank you all in advance!
