Can icloud sync an app between 2 iphones and an ipod?
I was wondering if the icloud can sync an app between 2 iphones and an ipod under the same ID
Yes per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 setup iCloud on all devices under the same account and backup to the cloud. If its two iPhones, are they both one owner? If not,it's best to not setup iCloud on a device that is not the same owner.

How can I sync magazine purchase between iPhone and ipad?
Just subscribed to a few magazines on the newsstand via my iPhone but can't see them on the ipad? What's the way out? Thanks.
Hey Lkr100,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to sync calendar events between your iPhone and iPad (3rd gen). I would recommend using iCloud, which you can read about here:
Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.

Syncing PoketLife app between iPhone and iPad.
I have the PocketLife calendar app on my iPhone 4s and want to sync it with my new iPad. I've already downloaded the app on my ipad from my appstore account. It pulled in all my templates but not my saved calendar items. I've tried all I know to do and the app's information says it should work. Can anyone help?
Yes iBooks can only be bought via the iBookstore which is only accessible via the iBooks app (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch). I don't think that if you purchase it on your iPhone that it will automatically appear on the iPad, but she should be able to (re-)download it for free (as long as she is using the same account as you purchase it with (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4059) :
Yes, you may be able to redownload certain books from the iBookstore, free of charge. To redownload a book, tap Store, then tap Purchases. Find the book you wish to download again and tap Redownload. You must be logged in to the iTunes account from which you originally purchased the book in order to redownload a title.
You can also make a backup of the book(s) on your Mac by copying it off your iPhone (File > Transfer Purchases), just in case it ever gets removed from the iBookstore and therefore can't be re-downloaded from it. -
HT3819 can you home share apps between iphones and ipads?
just wondering if we're able to share apps in the house hold. I have iphone 4, ios 5.1. My husband has iphone 4, ios 4.3, (still hasn't upgraded to 5....lazy.)
and we have an ipad2.
I'm just learning about the home sharing thing.....any help is appreciated!Sounds like you got the answer you were looking for, but I wanted to add that when you have home sharing up on the computer and the home share account is activated, the home share account listed in iTunes has a little triangle to the right of the account name, and if you click that a submenu appears that lists the apps videos etc. on the other account you then can add those to your other devices/computers the same way you add songs, just drag them into your iTunes library listed at the top of the column.
I just wanted to add this to this thread since I found that it clears things up for other people searching for an answer. -

How to sync mailboxes / folders between iPhone and iPad
How does one sync email folders between iPhone and iPad ?
Hi Doc,
I have just been on the phone to Apple for over 2 hours ! Both devices were already on IMAP . It turned out that one particular folder was a rogue and did not sync between desktop, iPhone and iPad. I created a new folder dragged every email into it from my desk top , deleted the original folder and all emails in that folder are now synched. Even Apple was baffled but the problem is now resolved so thank you for your assistance .

ICloud not pushing apps between iPad and iPhone what am I doing wrong
I have a new iPad2 and a new iPhone4. I put iOS5 on both of them. My understanding of this was when you purchased an app on one device it would push to your other devices. I did this and the apps do not push to my other device. I use the same Apple ID for both if that matters. I set up iCloud on both devices, turned everything "on" and created an @me account. What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance for any help...feeling like an iDiot
I believe you are misunderstanding. You don't sync apps between iPad and iPhone, and iCloud has nothing to do with any of this. There is a setting in Settings -> Store where you can set each device to automatically download NEW apps, meaning that when you buy a new app on one device, the other automatically downloads it. However, this is for new downloads only.
For your existing apps, you can simply connect each device to your computer and move the desired apps to it in iTunes. Or you can go to the App Store and re-download those apps. -
The syncing works between my iMac and iPhone on one hand and between iMac and iPad on the other. I'm using IOS 7.1.2. I made sure iCloud is on on IOS devices, same iCloud account, made sure there is no problem with the WiFi...I appreciate any help I can get. thanx
Finally I got a solution from an Apple guy today. First we did the following steps on an iPad and then on iPhone.
Basically, it comes down to this:
general/restore/ erase all content and settings
set up the iPhone/iPad as a new device
type your iCloud account info
once everything is up and running, wait for a while and first check on contacts, calendars, notes if it's syncing with the iCloud, then open safari and look for the other device. In my case it worked and iPad finally detected iPhone and I could see the safari tabs from the iPhone on the iPad.
But then, Iphone still couldn't detect the iPad, so the guy said the original problem was probably in iPhone. And so we did the whole thing again on iPhone and then I finally had my tabs from all devices visible on every device.
Thanks for your help anyway. -
Sync Apps between iPhone and ITunes before install of IOS6?
I use an IPhone 4. I always purchase my apps directly from the IPhone, and never from my computer.
The consequence is that there is no sync whatsoever between the actual screens/folders/apps on the IPhone and what is displayed on ITunes, in the TAB "apps".
Last year, when I installed IOS 5, I killed all my apps on the IPhone, and it took weeks to re-install my apps and the folders.
I am not prepared to suffer this exercise again, and I am even considering to skip the install of IOS 6 to avoid this pain.
How can I mirror the content of my IPhone such that the apps and the folders content/position actually present in the phone are memorized in Itunes?
Your help would be much appreciated.
PatrickI figured out to click on the "transfer purchases" to get my apps synced.
Now I have a new question. How do I delete apps from the list that I do NOT want to install?
Thanks. -
ITunes: How can I sync my podcasts between Macs and iDevices?
Hi,
Using iTunes for a decade now, I still having the same problem that I don't know how to solve:
How can I sync my podcasts subscriptions and play states between Macs and iDevices?
I am having two MPBs and one iMac, as well as an iPhone and iPad (yes, making someone rich in California), all of them are linked to the same iTunes/Apple account, they are not in the same Wifi.
What I would like to have that all these iTunes (plural) have the same Podcasts with the same played/unplayed states...
Is there any way to do that now, possible with iCloud? I am completely confused now that they have introduced podcast.app for iDevices...
Thank you for any idea for good solution!From what I can tell, the Podcast app should do for your iOS devices what you're describing--as long as they all use the same Apple ID. Here's an article with some helpful information about the app:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5295
To keep your subscriptions in sync across all devices, the article says this:
"To subscribe to a podcast on your device, tap the Subscribe button from the podcast provider's page from the Podcast catalog. Enable subscription syncing to keep your subscription up-to-date across your iOS devices. On your iOS device tap Settings > Podcasts > Sync Subscriptions > ON.
To sync playback position, the article says this:
"Playback Sync automatically allows you to sync your playback position to all of your iOS devices with the Podcasts app installed, using your Apple ID. In order for Playback Sync to sync your playback position, you must be signed in to the iTunes Store using the same Apple ID on your iOS devices."
As for keeping playback position on your iOS devices in sync with iTunes on your Macs, you'll need iTunes 11 on all your Macs. So if you're still using iTunes 10 or earlier, you'll need to run a software update to get the latest version. Incidentally, I came across this discussion, which offers some helpful setup/troubleshooting tips about using this new podcast playback syncing feature:

Hope this is helpful! -
How do I sync game progress between iphone and ipad
I have several "long term progress" games on my iphone 5.I bought an ipad mini and would like to sync the progress of each game on both devises.I have have game game progress erased in the past, possible from incorrect procedure.
What is the best was to sync devises. I was told at the Apple store to sign in each game with Facebook and the progress would then be the same on either devise. Any proven methods that work ?Hey Lkr100,

I am trying to sync my calendar between the mac and my iphone now that I have upgraded to Mavericks. I understand that I have to use iCloud (which I am not at all excited about) but I'll be damned if I can find out how to do it. I've read several postings in the community but they point me to broad troubleshooting pages and I can't find anything that simply tells me how to get my calendar into icloud to begin with and then how to sync. i was pretty happy syncing dircetly through itunes. I am feeling very sour about Apple right now.
Actually it is pretty easy to do through iCloud,
On your Mac(s)
System Preferences > iCloud
Be sure the services you want to sync through iCloud are checked
click on Account Details and be sure your Apple ID is correct
On your iPhone
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
On your iPad
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
That is literally all there is to it. The first sync will occur when your iPhone or iPad is plugged into power and on WiFi. After that any change made on one of the synched devices will appear on all of the other synched devices the first time they have an internet connection. -
Syncing Different Apps to iPhone and IPad
I sync both my iPhone and iPad through iTunes on my desktop. The way they sync is that iPad apps only go to the iPad, but iPhone apps go to both. I would like to sync iPad apps to the iPad and some, but not all, iPhone apps. Is there a way to sync different apps to each device?
ThanksIt sounds like you activate/synced your iPad on another computer already. An iPad (and other devices) can only be synced to one computer. Therefore, if you since to your computer you will lose all your apps, and more importantly, all the information associated with those apps. You can get the apps back by just re-downloading them. You will not be charged again as long as you use the same iTunes account you used the first time.

I have a question. I just got a new ipad. However, I have had an itouch for a long time and have many itouch apps in my itunes library.
I just connected the ipad for the first time since I started downloading apps on it. I see the ipad picture to the right. If I check "Sync applications", it says "all existing apps and their data on the ipad will be replaced with apps from this library". Does this mean I will lose the ipad specific apps I just bought/downloaded directly from the app store to my ipad?
I know you can use itouch apps on the ipad, but I am afraid this first sync will cause me to lose stuff.
help!!
thanks.
