Can i sync using 2 itunes ... home and work

can i sync using 2 itunes ... home and work .. i want my tunes from home and my calender and contacts from work. i used to use itunes at home and i sync at work ... but cant get the isync to work with the iphone and the imac24 i use ??

I had this same problem. You have to set up the check boxes on each computer of what you want to sync. On your home computer, have it sync a play list that you dedicate to the iPhone. Then at work have it sync everything else. Assuming you activated on your home computer this will work perfectly. If you activated on the computer that you don't sync music from, then it will ask you to erase the original sync and start on this other computer (your home one). Just let it do it and it will be fine. Hope this helps.

  • Sync Mail between Home and work I-Macs....not working

    Hello:
    I am not sure what is happening here..... I am running Mavricks on all the systmes below.
    on My home network i have my I-mac, I-pad, Mac Pro and I-phone. All my e-mails show up for my accounts and when I delte an e-mail say, on my mac pro it will also delete it on my i-mac, i-pad etc..
    However, i also have an I-mac at my office across town and I am signed in with my same id as my apple devices at home and all the acounts are the same. when I delete an e-mail mesage say on my i-phone, it wont delte it on my work computer. Is this because this type of feature only works if allt he computers are on the same network?
    If so, thats kind of a pain becasue I my look at my work e-mail from home and delete 50 messages, then go back inot the office the next day and have to delete them again. Maybe I have something set up incorrectly?
    Thank you in advance for your advice / help
    David

    Go to Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Mailbox Behaviour.
    Make sure these 2 boxes are checked on all Macs.

  • Syncing ipad on home and work account

    Hi there.
    I'm hoping I can articulate this question so it's understandable... so here it goes.
    My sister-in-law has received an ipad from her school for her teaching. They set up an account for her to purchase apps for her teaching. She also wants to be able to sync to her personal account so she can load music and other stuff. When she connects to her home account, it says it needs to erase the contents.
    Is there anyway to "blend" the accounts so she can use both? I believe I've heard that Apple is looking into ways to combine ID's. Is this what I'm talking about?
    Thanks for the help, and I'll try and clarify as need be.
    Michael

    No.
    Ipad will sync itunes content with one and only one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

  • Connecting Home and Work PC

    Hi,
    Ive had an iPod Mini for a while now, and im always hoping that with each new update, i will be able to sync both my home AND work PC.
    My home pc is where I import CDs etc, but occasionally id like to manage my music from work as broadcast to my stereo, maybe even add a CD from work too.
    Is there a way?!!?!?
    Thanks in advance.
    Paul.

    Paul,
    There are several ways you can achieve this. There are third party programs out there designed with just that in mind, to sync an ipod with 2 computers or two ipods with one. The one i have tested and know works is called ephPod. Google it and you'll easily find this.
    A second way you can achieve the results is to set the iPod to not automatically update. Choose the computer you want to fully manage from and associate the ipod with that computer. Next, any songs you have on the other computer can be dragged and dropped onto the iPod through iTunes. Just hook up the iPod to the second computer, but don't let it update. You will see the iPod through iTunes and this will work.
    Hopefully this helps.

  • Select between home and work addresses for Autofill

    I've searched and browsed for this and I think I know the answer but I want to check before I submit a feature request to Apple and give up for now:
    Can we choose between home and work addresses on our contact card when we have Safari perform autofills?
    I think the answer is no, that only the first address listed in our contact card is used.
    It would be most useful to be able to select the address used. Many of us have our contacts synced now between home and work computers and some of us are allowed to do occassional home business on work computers, or use our home computers for work.
    I experimented with an alternative. I set up two contacts for myself, a home contact and a work contact. They both use my name. I find that in the Contacts app I can select which card is "my card", and that will be used by autofill. But I have to open Contacts to switch "my card" to use that for autofill. It would be more useful if Safari would simply provide a way to switch between home and work contact info on the fly, or at least switch between cards.
    Am I missing anything?

    Thanks, fruhulda. I do have both my work and home address on my card in
    Address Book, and I agree that I should be able to choose which to use to fill in fields on a fax form. My question is how do I do that. I want to send a fax; I want it to feature my home information, but it's the work information that's automatically filling in. How do I change that?

  • How can I sync my iphone to my home computer (to sync with itunes music) AND my work computer (to sync with Outlook calendar)?

    How can I sync my iphone to my home computer (to sync with itunes music) AND my work computer (to sync with Outlook calendar)?

    Sorry iphones are meant to be sync to one iTunes media library.
    You could copy your music and put it on your work computer and then sync it.
    If you try to sync to one and then sync to other its going to wipe the phone and remove the old sync with the new sync.

  • A friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use mine which I want to sync with my Ipad and Iphone?

    A Friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use my library.  Want to sync my Ipad and Iphone to My library.

    I believe when you plug her old iPhone in to your computer it will notify you that the phone is synced with another library and ask if you want to register it with your library.  At least this is how iPods work.  I'm not sure about iPhones.  If you want to actually use the phone as your own you may need to go through AT&T.
    If you're just looking to use the iPhone as an iPod (without the phone portion of it) you may run in to some problems.  The iPhone really wants to be on a cell network all the time.  I think you'd have to jailbreak it to get it to work properly as an iPod.
    Let us know what happens when you plug the phone in to your computer.

  • My Ipad did work on my wireless at home and works on other wireless but no longer at home. My IPhone works at home and others can use the wireless Confused that it did work and now does not?

    My Ipad did work on my wireless at home and works on other wireless but no longer at home. My IPhone works at home and others can use the wireless> Confused that it did work and now does not?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.

  • Heretic here! Have just inherited a used IPAD 2 and work on Windows 7PC Home premium. Can they interact?

    Have just inherited a used IPAD 2 and work on PC windows 7 Home premium.
    Would like capability of using IPAD as a "dumb terminal" occasionally to connect to PC to do scut work while otherwise engaged.  Possible?  Not interested in films and music so much as being able to enter home booking system etc. 
      If Yes, what do I need to make it so? 

    iOS has no file system directly accessible to users and cannot really be used as a 'bridge' to control or operate your machine's operating system (whether OSX or Windows).
    When you say, "enter home booking system," there are plenty of iOS applications which would be suitable for creating home inventory system and spreadsheets. Applications such as dropbox can be used to transfer files between the device and your machine.
    Additionally, barcode scanning apps exist where you can, for example, bulk scan ISBN's, transfer the csv file, and subsequently input them into a spreadsheet on your machine.

  • HT4759 I'd bought cloud and I am looking to see how it works and still don't know. So can somebody tell me how it works, and why does money keep disappearing from my account. I didn't used iTunes match, and and copied everything I had in iTunes and am now

    1) How do I use Cloud?  I mistakingly use itune match and made copy of all I already had in tunes! 2) how do I get rid of all the copys?  3)how do I get the money that keeps disappars from my account?

    I got into a similar situation last night trying to enable wireless on my already configured wired my Time Capsule. It was getting the same or very similar 169.xxx IP address for itself.
    I found that I had to change ( I suspect it was restore my previous setting ) the Configure IPv4 item under the Internet Tab in manual setup of the Airport Utility.
    It appeared a "manually" and I changed it (back?) to "Using DHCP".
    That combined with Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode) lets the upstream router that connects directly to my Cable modem be the DHCP server for the entire network.
    As everything had worked fine for weeks until I enabled wireless it seems that the Configure Ipv4 parameter was reset either by me mistakenly or by the updating o f the changed settings. Frankly I' quite sure I didn't change it accidentally (famous last words)
    Other combinations may aslo work, but this works for me.

  • I have a classic that seems to be stuck in restore mode, the screen says "do not disconnect'' and i can't restore using itunes. i have tried resetting it and still no good, what can i do to fix this problem ?

    i have a classic that seems to be stuck in restore mode, the screen says "do not disconnect'' and i can't restore using itunes. i have tried resetting it and still no good, what can i do to fix this problem ?

    Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
    I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
    iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

    I had a similiar problem, with my multiple devices.  I open iTunes and when all devices were connected I went to the info section on each device.  Under info I checked the sync calandars. Under that I click all calanders. I then did the apply in low right. I then did the sync function and it fixed it for me.  You have to do this for each device.
    I also checked the device (ipad,Iphone) themselves and change the calander selection to NO Catagory.  Hope this helps.
