We have 2 iphones and 1 computer. Somehow during the sync my phone now is connected to my husband's itunes account - not mine. How do we undo it?!?!?
After syncing, my phone still has all of my apps, contacts, email accounts, etc., but it seems to only recognize my husband's itunes account. When I try to buy an app, it has his account and asks for his password. Also, anything I have in the cloud is actually in his account. When I look at the cloud under settings it has his itunes account, but no way to change it. Help!!! I just want to know how to make it recognize my itunes account again. Thanks for any help anyone can offer!
"Can both be synced to the same computer"
Yes. My wife and I do this. You can sync as many as you like to one computer. Each is a different device and can be set up to sync whatever you like.
"Also, is there a way that she can sync her iPhone at our home computer for her contacts, music, videos, etc. on our iMac and then sync it at her office for just the calendar items?"
Yes. Disable automatic syncing on both computers - to avoid an accidental sync. Then set the work computer to sync calendar and not to sync anything else ( done via the taps in itunes). Do the same at home, only select to sync everything but calendar.

My wife and I have an iPhone 3GS and and new iPad 2 each and we also have separate iTunes accounts.
We have only one computer and whilst I have no problem syncing the computer and my iPhone and iPad, I now need to sync my wife's phone and iPad but for some reason even when we sign into her iTunes account iTunes wants to sync my content to her devices.
Please could someone confirm how we can avoid this and ensure our content is kept separate and distinct
Thanks in anticipationhttp://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495

2 iPhones and 1 Computer PLUS can I sync one phone in two places?
Wonderful people of the community... I need some guidance.
My spouse and I both have iPhones now. Can both be synced to the same computer without problems or do I need to create a new account on the computer for my wife? Do I need to create a new iTunes account for her?
Also, is there a way that she can sync her iPhone at our home computer for her contacts, music, videos, etc. on our iMac and then sync it at her office for just the calendar items?

I have two IPhones and one IPad all with the same Apple ID. I can call facetime between the two IPhones, but I cannot call the IPAD from either of the IPhones and when I call my IPhone from the IPad it rings my wife's IPhone after briefly calling mine.
Each device needs a separate address. Use an email address (gmail.com) on the iPad.

i updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this
Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

if you're in the setup assistant process, all you need is a wifi connection or iTunes + valid SIM also you can include an Apple ID.

I don't have access to my main computer which has the sync account and I want to sync new computers.
What it says on the tin. The laptop on which I had set up the account was damaged and I currently don't have access to it. The problem with Sync is that because I don't have that computer, I don't have the ability to add new computers to sync, which is what I want to do. I don't want to reset my sync account and delete the data it holds. Need be, I will provide proof that I belong to that account.
If you didn't backup your sync key then you won't be able to access that sync account.<br />
The sync key is only stored on the computer(s) that you sync an never on the sync server in a way that you can access it (may be part of the sync data (passwords) though).

Since I unloaded OS7 and started using I cloud, the photos taken are smaller. The picture doesn't take up the whole viewer of the I phone. Therfe is a line,top and bottom. Any suggestions?
Hi shldr2thewheel,
it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
Sincerely in need of help once again,
Kim -

I haven't used my IMac in a long time and went to boot it up, and I find I don't remember the correct username and password (I use several computers..I try to keep the passwords similar, with a number for the chronological order in which I started using them) I've tried all the others I use for passwords. The 'hint" keeps coming up for the password I am pretty sure is the correct one, but, still cannot get in. I also don't remember whether I changed my surname on the computer...it was changed legally a little while ago, but some of my older devices still have my birth-name in there)
HELP
I don't think I ever set up a "master password" on the thing...I never use those. I am the only person with access to my personal devices.
