HT1212 Connecting a second Iphone to an Itunes account.

Can you connect a second phone to an existing Itunes account so both phones have the same music?

Yes.
I sync a personal iPhone 5S, a business iPhone 5, and a personal iPad with the same iTunes library and iTunes account/Apple ID on one computer.

  • I connected my new iphone 4 to itunes but now it wont recognise my old 3gs. My name doesnt appear on the left. i want to transfer all my songs to my new one but cant sync now. can anyone help

    i connected my new iphone 4 to itunes before backing up my old one but now it wont recognise my old 3gs. My name doesnt appear on the left. i want to transfer all my songs to my new one but cant sync now. can anyone help

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • Connecting a second iPhone to wifi network

    I currently have two iPhones in the house. One 16gb for myself and another 8gb for my wife. When I was setting my wifi connection it took a number of attempts and I finally got it to work, which it is doing very nicely.
    Now when I come to try and connect the second iPhone to the wifi network, it won't accept it. I am using exactly the same details as the first iPhone uses to connect successfully.
    Please can you tell me if there is anything I need to check or configure - my wife is all for throwing the phone in the bin.
    :o(

    weestoater,
    Try forgetting the Wi-Fi network on the iPhone that will not join the network. Goto Settings> Wi-Fi> tap the blue (>) to the right of the network name, then Forget This Network. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    If the iPhone still cannot join the Wi-Fi network, we may need to look at the router settings. Make sure the router is set to distribute enough IP addresses. Also Make sure the iPhone MAC address is added to the filter list, if MAC address filtering is enabled(as SisterBlue said). The iPhone MAC address is listed under Settings> General> About, the Wi-Fi address.

  • Having connected my new iPhone 6 to itunes and setting it up as normal... i transferred music to it as normal but when i open the music app and select a playlist it has a download cloud next to each track...

    After connecting my new iPhone 6 to iTunes, i transferred my music as i always have done. After opening the music app and selecting a playlist there is a download cloud next to each track... this is also the case with each podcast. Also once i reconnect the phone to iTunes go to add another playlist, at the top the "sync music" check tick has disappeared. when i re check that box again it says "Do you want to sync this iPhone all data will be erased"
    can anyone help at all?
    Thank you

    Hello henryscott3,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post it appears that you either have iTunes Match on your iPhone, or are seeing items that are available in iTunes in the Cloud and not on your device.  To learn more about both of these features, please see the articles below.

  • Synching 2 3Gs iPhones to one iTunes account on one computer

    I have a few questions regarding synching two 3Gs iPhones with one iTunes account on one computer.
    I had synched both phones (mine and my wifes) to our desktop computer but saw that apps were being placed on both of our phones and contacts were being added to both and duplicated.
    1. If I try to synch my wifes iPhone to a her laptop with a new itunes account and it asks about erasing the data, will it get rid of the photos and contacts? I have looked this issue up and no one really seems to know.
    2. If I try to synch both iPhones to the desktop with the original itunes how do I avoid the issues of transposing apps, contacts being added to both? Several answers out on the Net say to make two seperate accounts. Does that mean two seperate "iTunes" accounts? Or two seperate profiles on the desktop computer.
    The main reason I need to do this is because my wifes iPhone is about two or three firmware updates behind. I would like to update her firmware and back up all of her apps and contacts. I am backing up her photos to Shutterfly just in case, because if something happened to those I might not be around to see iPhone 5. hahaha j/k
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    1. If you manually backup your wife's phone before you sync for the first time to the laptop, you can save all data and settings of the phone and restore from that backup again after the initial sync.
    Here's how to backup manually:
    Set up the same iTunes account on the laptop, disable autosync in iTunes/Settings/Devices.
    Connect the phone, right click on it in the device list and choose "backup" iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, to copy apps and purchased media to the new library.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

    How to back up and restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    How to download apps for free again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    2. If you're syncing both phones on one computer, either create a second user account on your computer, log in and do the same manual backup process as described above, or, take the time to set up each phone individually, including the settings for calendars and contacts, which apps to sync, etc.
    iTunes will remember the settings for each phone and you'll only have to do this once.
    You can only use apps on different devices if you're using the same account you did at the time you bought them.

    How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

    Here are more details on my situation which should help clarify things...
    I purchased three iPhone 4 models back when they first came out (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is (as I understand it) that I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct without wiping out the separate contact lists, etc. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates and still be able to manage separate contact lists, etc. If I go this route, I assume we will lose all the apps on phones #2 and #3 that we have been "sharing"... correct? Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, one of you can help me??
    we have 2 iphone 4's synced to the same itunes account for apps and music since the day we bought them, but each has a different icloud acct. they have both been updated on the same itunes account with every update that has come out since we bought them in december of 2010. nothing on either phone has ever been lost or duplicated. having said all that, maybe i'm missing something here, but we have had no problems. we do have itunes setup to sync manually. i do believe i'm a piker compared to lawrence finch, but i'm just telling you what happens in my house. maybe check with apple? is there a store near you?

    No. If you connect his phone to your iTunes account/computer, ALL iTunes content on his phone will be erased. By design, iPhone syncs or manually manages iTunes content with ONE computer at a time.

  • Can i add an additional iphone to my itunes account and how?

    can I add an additional Iphone on my itunes account or can i have multiple itunes accounts on my computer?  thanks, sd

    You can do both. Adding a second iPhone is no more complicated than adding the first; you can also have multiple iTunes libraries on a computer and content from multiple iTunes Store accounts in a library. If a library contains protected content from more than five iTunes Store accounts, you may run into trouble when syncing.

  • I can't seam to get all my songs from my iPhone to my iTunes account on my mac. any ideas?

    I can't seam to get all my songs from my iPhone to my iTunes account on my mac. any ideas?

    iTunes will not transfer non-purchased media from you phone to your computer (only purchased media).  Non-purchased songs only sync one way: from computer to phone.  If you want to transfer non-purchased music from your phone to your mac you will have to purchase 3rd party software such as Touch Copy.  Purchased media, including music, can be transfered to your iTunes library by connecting to iTunes, right-clicking on your phone when it appears on the left sidebar, and choosing Transfer Purchases.

    You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.
