2 iphones on one account

i just set up an iphone 4s and i already have an iphone 4 .. someone gave me an article to restore the new phone using itunes from my current phone but now my current phone is not listed in itunes .. how do i have them both??

You should be able to connect both iPhones and sync them individually, see this Apple doc -> How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
If one iPhone is showing up in iTunes but the other isn't, try restarting the iPhone that isn't recognized.

    I have three email accounts on my iphone.  one of the accounts is now constantly downloading old emails and marking them as unread. I can I stop this from happening?

    iPhone mirrors the content of your accounts. You can turn off that account by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > account > turn off mail. Then access your email account via webmail/website and delete them there. Once you turn on the account again in your iPhone it wont download them all. Otherwise to leave it downloading then mark them all read once downloaded.

  • Can I use messages and iMessage of my iphone as one account?

    I am using my apple ID for my messages, and it's separated from my iphone's iMessage,
    Is there any way that I can merge the two account so that all chats could be appear together on both devices ?
    THANKS !

    If I am putting your post together properly, it sounds like you have two Apple ID's.
    At this time, apple does not support "merging" the two Apple ID's. You will simply have to begin using one alone for all your devices.
    I see that the Mac Messages Beta supports more than one account, but not more than one account of a particular type, either.

  • Setting Find iPhone for one account and find Friends for another

    Hi
    Just updated one iPhone 5 to 8.1.1.  Previously I had find my iPhone for one .me account (I keep all the family devices under this .me account).
    For the Find Friends app I had used a second .me account so I could locate the phone.
    I can't recall how I configured this previously.  It seems settings wants to keep me locked on one account, not two.
    Thanks

    If you want to keep everything in sync, you need to set up your mail using IMAP. I'm not familiar with Sky as to whether they offer an IMAP option or its just pop, you'll have to check with them. If they don't offer an IMAP option, you can get a gmail account, set that up as IMAP and then forward your Sky emails to your gmail account.

  • The limitation of the number of iphones on one account at the AppStore

    Don't you believe that this limitation should be done in some other way?
    In my opinion, there should be a limit for a number of iphones of the same generation.
    I had 2 Iphones 2G (i broke one), now I use 2 iphones 3G, and one of them was replaced due to warranty issues. That means I've already used up the limit of 5 phones for one account and as I wanna update to 3GS, i'll have to buy all the software from the store again! Do you think it's fair? It is all for my personal use, I just want to have the up-to-date gadget and they break down quite frequently, that's why I change them!

    The limit is on COMPUTERS not devices. You can have an unlimited number of iPhones and iPods on your iTunes account, but only 5 authorized computers.

  • Can you run two iphones on one account

    Can you ? Two phones sync on one account .

    I have two iPhones and daughters basic cell on a family plan here in US (AT&T). Each iPhone requires it's own data plan (charge) to be applied to the one account (bill).
    But I would say call the cell provider as they are the ones that provide service for the phone, while Apple is about the hardware. We all here are users and can tell you what we think or heard or experienced but only fact can come from the provider.

  • 2 iphones with one account

    Forgive me, I know this question has been asked before but I can't find the info I need. I am going to get a 3g iphone when it comes out. But I may keep my current iphone. can two iphones be used on one account? thanks for your help.

    You can have two iphones on one computer and you can choose entirely different items (playlists, songs, podcasts,etc) to sync with each iphone.
    You can also have two iphones on one AT&T account, but you do have to pay for the unlimited data plan on each - if you want all the features (i.e. visual voicemail) to work on each iphone.
    As far as itunes(mobile - iphone app), If you want to buy music from both iphones itunes application, I'm not sure how that would work, sorry. But if your not planning to use each phone to purchase music - no issue. Maybe someone knows about this issue.
    Hope this helps.

  • 2 iPhones on one account mishap....help!

    I connected a new iPhone to iTunes, but instead of choosing "connect new phone" I picked "back up the old one". So now, my wife's phone has all my apps, contacts etc. - how can I go back and get her phone connected again, so just some apps transfer...? She wants some of my apps, but contacts etc. are mostly separate. all help is appreciated greatly!

  • Gmail accounts added to iphone. only one account will work.

    I have a new iphone5. I have 2 gmail accounts. I can only add one account but it will not accept my other account either by itself or with the other account. the second account that won't be accepted is protected by the google verification code. Any ideas?

    Have you visited Google's website regarding how to create and access a 2nd Gmail account with an iOS device that is protected by the Google verification code?

  • How do i set up multiple apple iPhones with one account?

    Iphones are merging contact info and text messages.  sharing icloud.

    If you do not want to share contacts, calendars and email, then you need to create unique iCloud accounts for each device.  If you use the same iCloud account for all, then they inevitably end up sharing the same information.
    As far as iMessages go, again, if you use one AppleID for all devices, then they all share a single iMessage account.  You can get separate AppleIDs for each and create separate iMessage and iCloud accounts for each, and then each device has complete privacy and separate information.
    You can have as many AppleIDs as you wish (none need have any payment information associated with them, and none need be used for iTunes or App store purchases).

  • Two iPhones. One account. Can I have separate calendar alerts?

    I have a new 4s. My wife has my old 3GS. We are using the same iTunes/iCloud apple I'd account. It's nice because she can make her own calendar and I can make my own calendar. If I don't want to see her calendar I just deselect it in the calendars to view menu. I can see her stuff if I want to and she mine by going the other way. The problem is Calendar ALERTs. Even if I've deselected her calendar, my iPhone still beeps a reminder at me from one of her Calendar alerts and vice versa. Is there some way to make it so that the alerts only occurr if I've selected her calendar to view?
    I also have kinda the same problem with reminders. She gets mine and I get hers even though I've got two separate "lists" of reminders. Can I stop that?
    Also a similar deal with contacts. Can we have separate contacts lists and only see the others when we want to?

    No, sorry.
