Can two iPhones with same name sync with iTunes?

I've just got a new iPhone 4 and immediately synced it with iTunes, transferring all the data from my old 3Gs including the phone name. This means that I now have two iPhones with the same name(3Gs and 4). What are my chances of keeping my 3Gs as a back-up phone that's still able to sync with my iPhone account or will I have to change to phone's name and install apps from scratch? I'd really appreciate any advice from the experts on this.

You need to rename one of them. I would suggest that you backup and sync each device after the renaming.

  • Two iPhones using same iCloud account with separate contact lists?

    Our family has two iPhones and we each use different contact lists.  If we use the same Apple Id is there a way to separate the contact lists in iCloud or do we need separate account (i.e Apple Id's)?

    I have my iphone and ipad on Apple icloud services and it finds both units. I think you have to have different account names set up in order to use it. Do you have itunes? if so you can add the device from there. For instructions go to http://www.apple.com check under support, then forums to see if that has been posted.
    Good Luck

  • Can two iphones on different accounts sync from the same itunes account?

    I have an iphone through work. The iphone along with four other various types of ipods sync with my accounts on iTunes, including thousands of purchased songs. My wife is getting an iphone but she had to do if through her work.
    How do I make sure she can still sync with my library of purchased songs? We all want to have just one itunes account even though the iphone will be purchased separately. Make sense?

    *Is that all? Wow. Thank you so much. I will try it!*

  • Can't import RAW and psd file with same name different extension

    Trying to import a folder of images from desktop that I have been working with in Bridge CS3.
    LR won't import a RAW file that has a PSD file by the same name. Tried renaming the PSD and deleting the one with the same name, but says it is still there and won't import the RAW file - What is the correct workaround on this? Why can't it import same name files with different extensions?

    A forum search for 'RAW + JPEG' will give you more posts on this than you care to read. This will change. For now, import the RAW and PSD's from separate folders and then move them together for within LR.
    LR is seeing the RAW as a sidecar to the PSD. It is an unforseen effect of the RAW + JPEG thing where they decided to not import the JPEG, seeing it as basically a preview image for the RAW.

  • I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    What fixed it for me:
    On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
    Uncheck "Sync Music"
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
    Let it run and finish
    Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    See if that doesn't work for you.  I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

  • I purchased two songs on my iphone and it did sync with itunes. Then i put the two new songs in a music folder and it won't sync the songs to the folder on my iphone. same phone same computer never had this problem before.

    i purchased two songs on my iphone and it did sync with itunes. Then i put the two new songs in a music folder and it won't sync the songs to the folder on my iphone. same phone same computer never had this problem before.

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • Can I run 2 different domains with same name but on 2 different machines?

    I am trying to setup 2 domains with same name (sharedcds1) on 2 different machines (Machine1 and Machine2).
              When I start the weblogic managed server 1 (sharedcds1managedserver1) on Machine2, it throws an error saying it has some conflicts with the managed server 1 running on Machine1.

    Yes you can. Make sure that domains configured to use different multicast address. WLS uses multicast for communications between nodes in domain.
              although your configuration will work, you could have troubles if you going to execute inter-domain calls between domains/servers with the same names.

  • Hi All, I am using iphone in UAE and ipad in India usinging same apple id. Earlier I could do imessage  to my Ipad with different name but with  software update,I am unable to do, as signing id for the iphone and ipad is same.How to restore back

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick

  • Two methods with same name but different return type?

    Can I have two methods with same name but different return type in Java? I used to do this in C++ (method overloading or function overloading)
    Here is my code:
    import java.io.*;
    public class Test{
    public static void main(String ar[]){
    try{          
    //I give an invalid file name to throw IO error.
    File file = new File("c:/invalid file name becasue of spaces");
    FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(file ,true);
    writer.write("Test");
    writer.close();     
    } catch (IOException IOe){
         System.out.println("Failure");
    //call first method - displays stack trace on screen
         showerr(NPe);
    //call second method - returns stack trace as string
            String msg = showerr(NPe);
            System.out.println(msg);
    } // end of main
    public static void showerr(Exception e){
         StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
         PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw);
         e.printStackTrace(pw);
         try{
         pw.close();
         sw.close();
         catch (IOException IOe){
         IOe.printStackTrace();     
         String stackTrace = sw.toString();
         System.out.println("Null Ptr\n" +  stackTrace );
    }//end of first showerr
    public static String showerr(Exception e){
         StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
         PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(sw);
         e.printStackTrace(pw);
         try{
         pw.close();
         sw.close();
         catch (IOException IOe){
         IOe.printStackTrace();     
         return sw.toString();
    }//end of second showerr
    } // end of class
    [\code]

    Overloading is when you have multiple methods that have the same name and the same return type but take different parameters. See example
    public class Overloader {
         public String buildError(Exception e){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( e.getClass().getName() )
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( e.getMessage() ) ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
         public String buildError(String msg){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( msg ) ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
         public String buildErrors(int errCount){
              java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date() ;
              java.text.DateFormat format = java.text.DateFormat.getInstance() ;
              StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer() ;
              buffer.append(format.format(now))
                   .append( " : " )
                   .append( "There have been " )
                   .append( errCount )
                   .append( " errors encountered.")  ;
              return buffer.toString() ;
    }Make sense ???

  • Two soa domain with same name "TestSOADomain" sharing same SOA schema ?

    I tried creating two soa domain with same name "TestSOADomain" (different path) sharing same SOA schema .However one domain came UP to Running mode and other domain going to AdminMode and "soa-infra" application of that domain is not active.
    I do want to understand can this be possible with SOA ,ie. two soa domain sharing same SOA schema ?
    If possible what are all the problems might come
    1. While executing soa composites with asyncronous behaviour ?
    2. How the polling services will work ?
    3. will the XREF_DATA table ROW_NUMBER column inserted uniquely while inserting data from two different domain into same SOA schema ?
    4. Other issues ?
    Thanks

    Each domain is expected to refer to its own unique database schema. Same SOA schema should not be shared by multiple SOA clusters/domains. It is technically possible though, I suppose, and still can run fine any one SOA environment at any given time with the other SOA environments/domains (sharing the same SOA schema) shutdown. It is not the general/recommended practice to share SOA schema across domains and there could be potential implications and unexpected behavior, particularly when the SOA environments pointing to the same schema are all running at a time.

  • How to create logical directories with same name on two databases

    Hi,
    OS: Windows
    Oracle Version : 10g
    I have to databases in one oracle home. I have created some logical directories in one database. When I am trying to create logical directories with same name in another database, it is overwriting the first database directory paths with the second one
    Can't we create directories with same name but different path in two databases on one machine?
    Pls suggest me on this
    Regards,
    Vijay

    I am trying to create logical directory using CREATE
    DIRECTORY statement. I am very much aware that the
    create directory statement doesn't create directory
    on OS. But we can attach the physical directory on OS
    to logical directory in oracle
    My requirement is to create logical directories in
    oracle mapping the OS directories. Both the
    databases, wil have same logical directory names but
    different OS directory mappingsIf I understand you correctly, you can do this:
    On DB 1
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY same_dir_name as 'C:\myoracle\mydir1';
    On DB 2
    CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY same_dir_name as 'D:\myoracle\mydir2';
    What stops you from doing that ?
    Note: If what you have is one database but different connections, then you are connecting to one database. The above second statement will drop and replace with the first one

    you can... while saving the target,give a different name.. for eg target-2
