How can I sync 2 different iPhones with different music, videos, ringtones?

My problem has already existed for quite a while, but I didn´t find a solution myself. Problem: My wife and I each have an iPhone 3G. I do the sync for both using iTunes. I start the PC with my account for syncing my iPhone and for my wife I start the PC with my wife´s account. But nevertheless the iTunes mediathek shows the same music etc. So both of us get one´s own and the partner´s music on the iphone. But we want to have different ones. Does anybody know a solution for that problem, so that each of us can have his/her own music, videos, ringtones etc.?????
Thank you very much for your help!
Regards
Klaus

Let me see if I understand you correctly. You are using two different users on your PC and syncing each phone on a single account? If that is the case, each one of the iTunes can have a different library for it. If you do that, then you can sync whatever music you want to each, or if for some reason you have the same library on each of the users, you can do as the other poster suggests and that is create different playlists for each user and only sync that playlist to each phone. Playlists are how I did the sync for my original phone, however since I got my 3G last year, I just sync my entire library. It isn't that big.

  • I can't sync/back up iPhone data to my computer b/c iPhone screen is shattered and i cant unlock it to enter in my passcode. How can I sync my broken iPhone with my computer and back up my data so I can sync and transfer the data to my replacement iPhone?

    I can't sync my iPhone and back up my data with my computer because iTunes says to enter the passcode into my iPhone to unlock it, but I am unable to unlock and enter in my passcode on my iPhone because the screen is shattered. I have my replacement iPhone with me and I'm not going to activate it until I can sync/get the data from my broken iPhone. I have the envelope to send my broken iPhone back to the Verizon store or whatever so that's not a problem. I just can't sync my old iPhone with my computer.
    Thanks.

    No I haven't synced my iPhone with the computer I'm currently using. The computer that I normally sync my iPhone with is being repaired.
    I read a nearly identical question to mine (in which you answered) and I found my the answer. Thanks!
    Now I have a few more questions: If I mail my broken iPhone to Asurion, will I be able to get my data off of my iPhone once Asurion has it? And what will happen to my old iPhone and the data on it if I activate my replacement iPhone? Will my broken iPhone just become de-activated and will the data be erased or lost or something? Could I still sync it (with the computer ir originally synced with) and back up the data?
    Thanks.

  • How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
    Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
    Backup Phone A.
    Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
    When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
    After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

    How can I sync my pc contacts with my ipad and iphone?

    Do you normally sync via iTunes and your computer? If so, there's an option in iTunes - that you see as you plug each device in - to sync contacts. If you don't normally sync via iTunes you can download and use the iCloud control panel and use that to sync your contacts.

    " how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
    You cannot.  Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
    it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
    Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content.

  • TS3999 how can I sync my icloud calendar with a google calendar

    how can I sync my icould calendar with a google calendar?

    The calendars reside on different servers and as far as I know there isn't a way to sync between them.  You can, of course, add your Google calendar to your devices and continue to use Google to keep it in sync.  If you open the Calendars app on your devices and tap Calendars on the top left, then tap Show All Calendars, your Google and iCloud calendar events will appear together your calendar.  You will only need to decide which one you wish to use as your default when adding new enteries, then set this in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar.
