Yes, you can use them on up to five devices. You can also download apps you lost or deleted again for free: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

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.

I really don't know what this means.
What do you mean "when I try to change the email on my itunes"?
Where on itunes are you changing an e-mail? and for what reason?
Not sure at all what you are trying to do an it seems that you are confusing e-mail, itunes accoutns and libraries.
Please explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish.

Sorry, unless she backup up the new phone before or is using iCloud to save the photos, the photos are gone.

Multiple iPhones with 1 iTunes account in iOS 6

I updated my phone to iOS yesterday. When my husband did the same today, his phone is now set up to text using my name and id. It looks like everything he does comes out of my phone. We share my iTunes account and he avoided using iCloud when it came out because it seemed problematic. Are we going to have to set up and iTunes account for him?

" how can I sync her iphone and mine using the same iTunes account on our Mac book we have and at the same time not have every purchase or app downloaded onto both phones"
Each device will only sync what you select to sync. If your wife does not want an app, then she should not select it to sync.
" Also since we share the same wi-fi network at home is there a way to make it so that when I get home or she gets home and had downloaded apps while away that they don't automatically get sent to each other's phones or the iPad which I use for work?
Again, if she does not select them to sync, then they will not sync.
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

Syncing multiple iPhones with 1 iTunes account questions.

Hello community. Just had a few questions about my iphone and my wifes. I have had an iphone for almost a year now and have had my login email address and password set up since the beginning. I have the iphone 4. My wife today received her iphone 4s in the mail. I also currently have my iphone set up on the cloud to sync my contacts and calendar. We also have an ipad 2 which is set up through the cloud and I am the only person who uses this for work purposes. One of the main questions I have is how can I sync her iphone and mine using the same iTunes account on our Mac book we have and at the same time not have every purchase or app downloaded onto both phones? I use a few apps for work which she doesn't want but if she was to sync with the cloud or itunes she doesn't want to constantly delete the app or un-select it from syncing to her phone. Also we do enjoy playing some of the same games especially against each other but is ther a way for her to have her own seperate login for either downloading apps or a different login for getting into the game center? Also since we share the same wi-fi network at home is there a way to make it so that when I get home or she gets home and had downloaded apps while away that they don't automatically get sent to each other's phones or the iPad which I use for work? Sorry if I'm a little bit of everywhere with the questions but just trying to get this resolved the best we can. Thank you for all your help!

but i CANNOT get itunes to or her phone for that matter to recognise that they are on the same account and all i want to do is share them with her..............
any help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
i need you

Yes. She can just download it from her iPhone as if she were purchasing new and the iTunes Store will notify her that the app has already been purchased and allow her to download it again. If by "same iTunes account", you mean the same iTunes Store account, there shouldn't be any problems. Otherwise she'll have to sign into the iTunes Store using the account under which the app was purchased.
Alternatively, she can copy the app from your iTunes library to hers (if hers is separate) and sync from the computer.
Regards.

IPod touch + iPhone on same iTunes account?

Just curious if I can have an iPod and an iPhone under the same iTunes account? We've had an iphone for a few months now, and just recently got the iTouch, but the apps I downloaded to the iTouch (via wifi) were taken off the iTouch when I synced up last night.

Yes, you can. But you can't sync either an iPod touch or an iPhone to more that one computer, so if you were synching either with a different computer, anything on the iPod/iPhone will be erased if you sync to another computer that doesn't have the same content. So make sure everything you want in your iPod touch and iPhone are in the copy of iTunes to which you wish to sync. If you buy something directly on the iPod or iPhone, don't let it sync until you use the "transfer purchases from iPod" command under the iTunes File menu to get those apps into iTunes.
If you've lost any apps, you can download them again without extra charge. I'd suggest using iTunes so you don't have to use the extra "transfer" step. Just go through the purchase process and eventually it will tell you that you've purchased the app already and can download a zero cost.
Regards.

Syncing two iPhones with one iTunes account, archive and install

I had a blue screen and had to archive and install.
I re-synched my iPhone and at that time put my iPhone contacts in my address book with
my group name, that I just created. I created a group for her and now want to re-synch her iPhone
with my computer and with my iTunes account, like before. I get a message that the info on that her iPhone is synched with another user account. A choice to merge info from this user account or replace info from this user account. I want to make sure that her contacts go into the address book, under
her group. I don't want to lose her her contacts on the phone, when I re-synch her iphone.

I want to make sure that her contacts go into the address book, under her group. I don't want to lose her her contacts on the phone, when I re-synch her iphone.
You should select the Merge option. If you don't, the existing contact information in the Address Book on your Mac will replace all contact info in her iPhone's address book.

Sync two laptops with same itunes account

I have two macbooks that share the same itunes account. The data is not synced, so I have some songs on one but not on the other. I am sharing, but I want to sync them so the data is the same on both. Any ideas?

you could see if Doug's AppleScripts has a script that helps with the pre-home sharing content.
alternatively, you could move your library to a centralized location and have your Mac's access the same library file. click here for information.

Yes, you can sync as many as you like.

Purchasing Apps for different non-linked iPhones with one iTunes account

Hi:
Is it possible to use my iTunes account to purchase apps for different iPhones without linking those phones to my iTunes account?
I am trying to purchase a specific application (WhatsApp) for some friends who have iPhones but not iTunes accounts. I don't want to link those phones to my iTunes account, just buy this specific app for them.
When I try to purchase directly from their iPhones, I get a wrong password message. Is Apple blocking this purposely?
Thanks,

All 3rd party apps - paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the app, so the answer is no.

How do I sync my Iphone to two seperate machines with same itunes account.

I have two laptops one for home and one for personal. But I download music on both. Both are logged on under my own itunes account. But when I try and put the music on from the second computer. itunes will let me know that it will sync, but its going to erase everything from phone first. And I dont want to do that. How do I leave my phones data intact and just add music from my other computer?

Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
It isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries, however it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync, otherwise iTunes will want to erase the content and reload. Manual management isn't an option with an iPhone since it still wants you to use a single library, and that won't sync plays.
I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed slightly but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entries and import the local content you have on that box. However you lose the other benefits of syncing.
