Can I sync two Iphones to one laptop?
I have a 4s and my wife has a 4. Can we both snyc to the same laptop, to use itunes to load music onto both phones?
Yes - you can just share the same Apple ID or sync any number of devices you want with separate IDs.
To prevent getting each others messages though after doing this (if you share IDs) - go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure only your phone number is checked.

My girl-friend owns a 16GB 3GS running on software version 3.1.2 and I own a 32GB 3GS running software version 3.1.3. After I sync both iphone on my laptop, nothing works on the 16GB iphone. The moment I tap on any Apps, it returns to the home screen immediately. Everything works fine for my 32GB iphone. I am using only one I-tunes store account.

Can I downgrade from version 3.1.3 to 3.1.2? No reverting to a previous version is not allowed...legally in the TOU rules by Apple
When I say yes and no... I mean it can be done but the steps you're using is not the best way...
Best bet is to use a different user log in for that PC and then create two iTunes accounts... you can still share apps and music via Home sharing and copy items back and forth -

Can i sync two iPhones to one iTunes?
As of above my wife has had an iPhone for just over a month now and is looking to update to IOS 5 as I have. My question is whether when I plug her iPhone in and run the update will all her data be lost and get wiped by my data? We both have different apps, contacts etc and it would be a nightmere for her if this happened. Many thanks, Jack
When you connected his iphone did you click File>Transfer Purchases?
This would transfer any ituens purchases from iphone to computer.
You can sync as many iphones as you like to one computer/account/library. -
Connecting two iphones on one laptop
Hi bought my gf a iphone 4 for xmas and i have a iphone 3gs but upgrading to iphone 4 in january. How can i use two iphones on one laptop without syncing each others stuff. I know people who have had this problem but i dont want to be buying another laptop just for her to connect her iphone to. Any comments welcome please. Thanks
Welcome to the discussions,
creating a separate user account in windows will do it.
But remember that connecting to a new iTunes library will erase your phone during the first sync.
So backup manually and transfer your purchases, set up at least one contact and event on the computer before you sync. After the phone got set up, use the manual backup to restore from.

Computer crashed how to sync TWO iphones on one computer?
Any help is appreciated. My PC that I sync my iphone on has crashed and I tried to sync my iphone on my wifes laptop, but she has an iphone as well. I can log into iTunes, but cannot see any of my podcasts, applications or information.
Is there any way to sync two iphones on one computer?The easiest least complicated way to keep your info and her info seperate and not worry about things is to take advantage of user profiles on your computer (in XP)...so each of you log into XP with your own accounts, thus iTunes (and any other software like mail, etc) all have your own settings.
Otherwise, you will have to watch which account is logged into iTunes Store (click store and see what name is up top right in case you both have different accounts)...and make sure you are logged in with the right account before syncing. iTunes does know the difference between your phones so each can setup different settings of what to sync to, but your library on your computer will be mixed unless you do what I said first, use different profiles (user logins) for XP. -

How to sync two IPhone with one PC , but with different applications ?
We have two IPhones , but one PC , we want to sync separately , is that possible ?Absolutely, connect each phone, select what content you want on each phone, then hit the sync button. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs, including separate backups.

CAn You Sync Two iPhones to the same iTunes Account?
Has anyone been successful in syncing two iPhones to the same iTunes account. I am the main user of our Mac and my wife just uses it for email and internet browsing. Basically she uses my user account and therefore we share one contacts list, one calendar, one iTunes, and both use the same Mac Mail with our own email addresses. Both also want to use MobileMe.
Thanks,
trippjYes.. It is a very difficult process.. First, log into 1 computer with your account and Authorize that computer to use the iPhone. then Sync your phone.. Log out and go to the second computer.. login and Authorize then sync your phone.
It worked for me -
Can I sync 2 iPhones on one Macbook?
Hi
Can someone help? Is it possible to sync 2 iPhones on one MacBook... contacts on both phones are the most critical things that I need back up on the Macbook...You can sync as many devices as you want to the same itunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. Itunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs. Regarding your contacts, you can have the same contacts on each device or a different set of contacts. If you want a different set of contacts, create groups in Address Book on your Mac, then select what groups/group you want on each device. Before you select syncing contacts in iTunes, make sure you have at least on entry in each group you create in Address Book, this will generate a merge or replace prompt when you do sync, with merge being the correct choice.

Syncing two iphones with one computer
A co-worker and I share a secretary. We'd like to be able to sync our individual calendars (in Outlook '03) on our secretary's PC.
Is this possible?UPDATE:
Well I thought I figured it out when I realized iTunes gives you the option of syncing only selected calendars. My plan was to check only my calendar to sync with my phone and Gary's calendar to syn with his phone.
Unfortunately, the option to sync only selected calendars is grayed out in iTunes. I can only check the "sync all calendars" box.
Surely others have figured out how to sync two phones with one computer and only have the data you specify synced to the specific phone.
Do I have to create another Windows user account where only Gary's calendar is maintained and then switch back and forth between user accounts whenever syncing?
Any help would be much appreciated. -

Yes each phone will have its own syncronisation so you can set what goes onto those phones independently of each other
