Got a new iPhone, using the same laptop, doesn't sync
I bought my first iPhone.
I installed iTunes to my laptop and setup my first iPhone on it.
Everything I selected to sync, would sync to the phone.
I've recently had to exchange my iPhone for a new one.
I connected my second iPhone to the same laptop.
I setup the second iPhone and it only syncs the previous phone's apps to it.
iTunes doesn't sync anything else, now, i.e. Music, Photos, Podcasts, etc.
I've tried to uninstall iTunes and delete the "Apple Computer" folder in my profile.
How do I fix this?
Well I am more than happy to help out others with sync problems on their iPhone. I'll throw out another post to raise the sync question and if anyone needs help, i'm here for them.
But... I'm not so eager to give out that information to Apple. And why should I? Apple has not only been less than eager to chime in on posts, but they have a nasty habit of altering posts, reshaping them to make them look pretty and disguise core facts, or completely deleting posts regarding critical issues. I realize they want to look good to the public, but you know what Apple, part of a discussion is working out all of the details of the issue, squashing the rumors, talking about all of it. Not ignorning those things.
Call me crazy, good communication, why would that be good right?

How do i share music with 2 iphones using the same apple id?
how do i share music with 2 iphones using the same apple id?
Sync them both to the same iTunes music library. You can also automatically download purchased music to both by going to Settings>iTunes & App Stores and turning Music to On under Automatic Downloads. If you music is in multiple computers, you can enable Home sharing to share your music library across multiple devices (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819).

sign in with your apple id on the new phone, then go to app store - update - purchase - all/not on this phone and hit the cloud next to the app to downlaod.

I have always used the same laptop for all of my iPhones but awhile back this laptop had a virus so my husband wiped out the laptop and now when I sync my iPhone I no longer receive my entire music library (including purchased songs) on my iPhone. How do I fix this?

We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten. Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ? Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?
Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences. -

I'm trying to use my iPad mini for the first time with a previous apple ID and password but it says "iTunes is not working try again"...it allowed me to download an app on my iPhone using the same apple ID & password but all my apps are in "Waiting Status" on my iPad mini because it says "iTunes is not working"...PLEASE HELP ME NOW!!!
Previous user installed iOS 7 beta on that iPhone.
Take it back and get your money returned. You
are running into a new security feature. Whoever owns
the ID that it is asking for is the only person who can
remove the security. That iPhone is worthless to you. -

Does the new iMac use the same memory as the previous?
Right now i have the 24" 2.16ghz iMac and i am considering selling it to buy the newest 24" 2.4 ghz version. My question is, do they use the same ram? The apple specs page for the new imac says it uses 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300) which is what i thought i had in my current iMac. For some reason though on crucial's website it says the new imac uses 800mhz ram, i would likely trust apples specs but i just wanted to confirm if it is the same so i know if i can keep a 1gb stick or not to put in the new one. Thanks!
By using the manual method (Apple > iMac > 2.8 GHz) I only got PC2-5300 (667 MHz) RAM (although I do get PC2-6400 RAM for the 2.4 GHz model - but you probably won't benefit from the performance boost, just like my Mini has now 1 GB of 400 MHz DDR RAM running at 333 MHz). And yes, the new iMac uses the same RAM as the older one.
I'd suggest you visit an Apple store and see the new iMac for yourself though. Your iMac still seems like a pretty good computer, and the 2.4 GHz processor and/or Radeon HD 2600 card may not warrant the upgrade price, especially if you don't like the glossy screen (which is reportedly much glossier than the MacBook's display). -
HT3529 will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id
will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id
It will. If the two phones are used by two different people, however, you will need to implement some careful management of your iMessage settings to ensure that you don't each receive each-other's messages. It is a much safer option to use different Apple IDs for each individual.
On iOS devices, you are able to use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and Facetime, iCloud, and the iTunes and App Stores. -
I have three iPhones using the same iTunes account, can we set something so that all our txt messages are not appearing on all phones?
Settings > Messages > Receive At...
Any iPhone that lists the same email will receive the same texts. This has to be changed in order to stop receiving on all devices. -
Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?
Can two people with their own iPhones use the same computer and iTunes?
Yes. My wife and I each have our own Apple ID and used the same computer to sync our phones with iTunes. The best way to do this is set up separate user accounts on the computer. If you are logged in to your account on the computer and your wife wants to sync here phone, you would log out and she would log in. These keeps all your stuff separate and avoids a ton of confusion.
