I got a new iPad and gave my daughter the old one. She is unable to get on it using the password and ID I gave her. So I changed the password on mine -she still can't use that password- is it different on all devices and I forgot it?
IPad – I have 2 iPads. Should they both have the same id

What part of the iPad do you want to add a new Apple ID to? There are several different places to enter an Apple ID.
Messages
Settings > Messages > Receive at:
App Store
Settings > Store > Apple ID:
Alternatively, you can go to the App Store, click on "Top Charts" at the bottom. Scroll to the bottom and you can sign out and enter a new Apple ID.
iCloud
Go to Settings > iCloud > Account:
Groupme is a handy group/topical message app that allows you to create "groups" like "My family", "Pictures of Griffin", "My Bocce Discussion Group" on the fly.
You can access it through a web client, or through dedicated iOS and android apps.
Each group is essentially a private chat room for the people you invite, who can post messages, locations, or pictures that the entire group can see.
It's much more useful than I'd have guessed when you have a group that shares an interest or temporal event (it's awesome for people at a wedding or bachelor party to keep track of what everyone's up to.)
(If you ever used Beluga before Facebook ingested it, it's basically the same thing.)

Best Answer
No, your Apple ID email/password combination will be the same everywhere - on your iOS devices, computers, and online. You can use it on as many devices as you would like and it will always work just fine - regardless of the device.
Unrelated to that though, I would consider setting up a new Apple ID for your daughter and then configuring Family Sharing to link the two. Apple IDs are very much designed for one user per Apple ID.
Aside from that, make sure you are entering the Apple ID username/password combination correctly and it will work.
