Can we use 1 computer w/1 Apple ID, but with 2 different iPhones?

My husband is getting his first iPhone for Christmas, and I'm wondering if we can both use the same computer and same iTunes account for our syncing? Right now, he has an iPod, and we're sharing the same iTunes Apple ID, and it's working okay for us. We just pick what apps and music, etc we want on our respective devices. What I'm most curious about are the contacts. He doesn't need/want my contacts and I don't need/want his. How can we use the same iTunes account and ID, yet essentially have two different phones and all that entails? (Contacts, calendar, etc?) Is it possible? Or should I set him up with his own entirelly on a different computer?

You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like with one computer.
Each will only sync what you select.

No. Return it and get your money back if still within the 30 day return window. All US iPhones are carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked.

Agreed heather. Also, if you have three users on the same account how do you keep phone calls and messages from going to all three phones?

Why can i use one computer to sync music

It ***** to find out that with using iTunes, you can only use one computer to sync things such as music. The computer that I was previously using with syncing died on me and now that I am on a new one it says that I have to erase everything on my iPhone just to put one mixtape on it which is complete BS. So I ask you Apple, iTunes support, or whoever, why?

If you had your itunes backed up then you would not have that problem. You could restore it using time machine, if on a mac, or other backup software, if on a pc. Also if you had itunes match then you don't need itunes at all to sync your music up anymore.

HT1414 Do I have to use the original computer to update iPad? Or can I use any computer?

Do I have to use the original computer I started with to update my iPad? Or can I use any computer/laptop?

Thanks. I asked the question because if you have iOS 5 or later you can update directly from the iPad.
Now, to answer your question specifically, yes you can, but it may have implications. See this link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972 and the sub heading, 'If you are tempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you do not normally sync'.

Can I use my computer as a jukebox with external speakers, and if so, how?

You won't get as good performance thought, it's recommended that you use one device for ins and outs. Get an adapter for your speakers so that the jack will fit into the headphone output of your guitarpod. But in the meantime aggregate will work.

It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

Can I use my computer keyboard as a MIDI keyboard in Logic Express?

Hello,
Is it possible to use my computer keyboard as a one-octave piano keyboard (as possible in Garageband) ?
I'm not ready to shell out for a good keyboard just yet.

Yes. Not only can you use your computer keyboard by pressing the caps lock key, but you also have the option of using a "step input keyboard," a graphical display of a piano keyboard on which you can input and record notes by clicking with your mouse.

If you are referring to using airplay mirroring, then no. That would require a Mac from 2011 or later running Mountain Lion.
However, you can use 3rd party software like Airparrot. They have a free trial so you can see if it works for your needs.
If you just want to view your iTunes library, then yes you can.
