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.

    We use the Apple mail server to get e-mails from our gmail and comcast mail accounts. Recently we have been getting spam that claims to be sent to a gmail address, but when I check that address directly, there is no such e-mail, either in the inbox or in the spam folder. Is it possible to bypass the gmail account and send directly to the Apple mail server, spoofing the gmail address?

    Maybe some info here for you about spoofing. (and much additional info)

    I have had IPhones since their inception.  Last phone was the 5.  A few months ago, I upgraded to the 6 Plus.
    Here is my issue.
    On my 5, my car radio (which has USB port) allowed me to plug in and listen to radio or music from my phone and the bonus was it charged the phone as well. All worked great.
    Now with the 6 Plus, neither of things work.  The message on the radio (Kenwood) says I Pod error.  The message on my phone say's "this device is supported".
    I have called on this before and was told you are aware and that the issue will be addressed in a future update.  There have been several updates on IOS 8 and the issue remains.

    I have a Kenwood KDC-X695. When I purchased this stereo and had it installed, I had an ATT iPhone 4.
    It worked with the stereo, but had a few issues. I had purchased a few audio books that I would listen to while driving. When I plugged it in it would immediately begin to play the book from the beginning or if I had been listening to music, it would start playing the song that was at the top of the song list.
    The stereo came equipped with Firmware version 3.05. I upgraded to the iPhone 5 a year later. I had that phone for approximately 2 years. The song or book issue remained the same.
    I just recently upgraded to the iPhone 6 and the Bluetooth function still works, however the USB port on the stereo that the phone plugs into to allow files on the phone to play through the stereo no longer works.
    I contacted the service provider (Verizon) and after speaking to several different technical support technicians, they provided me the phone numbers for Kenwood and Apple because they were unable to help me.
    I spoke with Kenwood technical support the following day and after a few fumbling miscues from the technical advisor, it was suggested that I upgrade the firmware, even though the Kenwood literature warns against this if the Bluetooth portion is working, because if there is a problem with the upgrade, it can render the Bluetooth useless and non-functional. The advisor did suggest the latest firmware on the second or third attempt, after I pointed out what I was able to glean from my initial search.
    Later that day, I went back to the Kenwood site (from their homepage) and by using their selection tools, discovered that this particular model was only ever intended to be used with the iPhone 4S (the technical advisor was not aware of this, even though I mentioned this during my phone call earlier in the day). According to the Firmware selection tool, my iPhone 5 should not have worked with it.
    I performed the Firmware upgrade, and it took 13 minutes. This was less than the 15 minutes that was forecast in the Kenwood literature. The Bluetooth still works but the USB cable connection still causes the unsupported device message that I received prior to the upgrade. I am incredibly annoyed and disappointed.
    By upgrading to the iPhone 6, I have three choices; (1) only use the Bluetooth for phone calls without the ability to play other files from my iPhone 6 (2) forced obsolescence of my stereo, requires buying a new stereo (3) return my iPhone 6 and go back to my iPhone 5.
    I do not believe that I should have to be a software/Firmware/hardware engineer, vetting every single device that I own; prior to upgrading a cell phone.
    I am incredibly annoyed with Apple at the moment.
    I have a separate Bluetooth headset that worked with both my iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 that the iPhone 6 simply does not recognize. That is another story for another time.
    Currently, I am incredibly underwhelmed with Apple.

  • HT4623 I'm trying to update my phone to te iOS 7 and it keeps telling me I don't have enough storage room to do it I just need... The thing is I've already deleted everything from my phone so I'm not sure what's going on

    I'm trying to update my phone to the ios7 and my phone keeps telling me I don't have enough available storage... The thing is I have deleted everything from my phone and I have nothing else to get rid of... So I need to know what to do

    Check for 'others' in iTunes against your iPhone.
    Restore from a previous backup to reclaim some of it.
    Still want more, Restore in iTunes, setup as New.

    As Dah•veed said, you can delete an app on one divice, and still have it stay on another. The syncing only applies for downloaing apps when you have "Sync Purchases" enabled for the App Store. This goes for the iTunes, iBooks, and Podcasts apps as well.

  • I have downloaded a game from i tunes but I can't see it in both phone and PC

    I have downloaded a game from itunes but I can't find it in both my phone and my i tuner account. What is the problem?

    When did you buy/download it ? If it's still in your country's store, and it's not an iPad-only game, then it should show in the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPhone, and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. If it's not showing there, and it's still in the store, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

  • If the app I develop for AppStore uses artwork from other sources, and the app is non-commercial, does it have a chance to be approved ?

    My question is stated above, if possible, can anyone answer it ? Thanks a lot in advance.

    I cannot give you a legally backed opinion but I would imagine that if, for example, you were using icons, provided you had permission to use them your App would be acceptable.
    From what I see, there are three distinct types of icons.  Freeware, Licenced ware and original art.  For licenced ware and original art you would certainly need the agreement of the copywrite holder or artist.   For freeware, it would be wise to seek permission in case the situation changes..
    The same would go for pictorial representations.   Unless copywrite has been sold, the artist holds the copywrite and you would need permission to use it.
    I cannot see how the approval of the app would be affected because it would be your responsibility, as the developer, to have obtained all necessary permissions.
    Hope this is of some help.

  • I have a new laptop but when i downloaded my gavin and stacey from my library only 7 episodes from both series and the christmas special have come through

    Why cant i upload all of the episodes in the seires? It doesnt offer the option to delete and reload either??

    You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

    No one here would know Apple's plans. But, if past history holds true, expect a new model iPhone sometime between now & the fall.

  • Headphones plugged in, but sound is coming out from both headphones and speakers

    My laptop has had this problem for quite some time now, it first materialized when I updated to Windows 8.1. I had recently upgraded to Windows 10, and the problem fixed itself. But when I used the laptop the next day, it reverted back to playing from both headphones and speakers, so it's not really a problem with the hardware. I've also restored the laptop multiple times (using restore point), and the problem gets fixed for a day, then comes back the next day. I've tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it, but no luck.
    Laptop does not recognize the headphones even when they're plugged in.
    Any other solutions?

    Hi @Alpha_ ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion 14-b017c  Sleekbook and not playing sound correctly. Here is a document on troubleshooting sound.
    Here is another step to try.
    1. Right click speaker icon (right hand corner)
    2. Select Playback devices
    3. Right click Speakers IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio is your default.
    4. Enable it and set as Default
    5. Click Apply/Ok 
    Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues as headphones or speakers.
    You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
    Hope this helps with the sound.
    Thanks.

  • My wife and I both have the new iPhones.  Is there a way to set up two separate iCloud accounts but have photo stream from both phones sync with one family mac?  So we don't want to share contacts or anything else, just photos... Thanks in advance

    My wife and I both have the new iPhones.  Is there a way to set up two separate iCloud accounts but have photo stream from both phones sync with one family mac?  So, we don't want to share contacts or anything else, just photos... Thanks in advance

    If you turned off Contacts wouldnt that mean that the Contacts would no longer be backed up to iCloud as well? That would make it a pain when upgrading a phone to not easily pull contacts back down.

  • HT204085 Does the keychain have to be set up from only one Apple ID or can it be used among 2 or more Apple ID users? For example, my daughters each have I'd but my cc is on their accounts and my wife also has her own id with my cc.

    Can the keychain from my phone and Apple ID link to 2 other different phones and Apple ID's and 1 new ipod and different id? Both daughters and wife use my credit card on their accounts. 

    We do this in my family now.  We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores).  Each iDevice has this configured.
    Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud.  That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup.  That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice.  You can just restore from it.
    So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
    In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response.  What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures.  Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures.  1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.
