If I delete an app on my iPhone will it be deleted from my iTunes or my wife's phone?  (Both phones use the same iTunes account)

If I delete an app on my iPhone will it be deleted from my iTunes or my wife's phone?  (Both phones use the same iTunes account)
It is easier for me to clean up my phone on the phone itself and not on the computer.
Thanks

No. It will only be Deleted on the Device you are Deleting it from.

  • My wife and I have been using the same iTunes account, but would like to have separate apps on our phones.  How can I set up a separate account for her?

    My wife and I have been using the same iTunes account for both our iPhones, but she wants separate apps from mine.  How can I set up a second account in her name, delete the apps on her phone and start from scratch with just the apps she wants on her phone?

    If you have the old phone, connect it to iTunes, right click on the device, and choose transfer purchases.  If you no longer have the old phone, I don't believe there is a way to recover them, as they were on your original device.

  • HT201402 If I delete an App off my iPhone will it automatically delete the App off my iPad ?

    If I delete an app off my iPhone 5 will it automatically delete the same
    app off my iPad ? I use 1 account so I can manage my young sons
    iPad but when I download a purchase to his iPad it automatically adds
    the app to my iPhone 5. I have a 16GB iPhone & a 32GB iPad, my iPhone
    runs out of space with the apps downloaded to my iPad automatically
    downloading on my iPhone. I want the apps on the iPad not on the iPhone
    but I don't want to delete off my iPhone if the app will also delete off the
    iPad. Will the app deleted off my iPhone automatically delete off my iPad ??

    No.

  • I have 2 iPhone 4S's, one is personal, one purchased by work for me. Can I use the same iTunes account to sync both phones while keeping the contacts that are synced as separate lists for personal phone and work phone, but also allow same apps for both?

    I'm hoping someone out there knows if I can use 1 apple ID and 1 iTunes account to sync 2 different iPhone 4S's  - one for personal use, and one for work use. I would like to be able to sync with the same music and app's on both, but need to keep the contacts and calendars completely separate between the 2 phones since I don't want personal data on the work phone or work data on the personal phone. Can you help me figure this out?

    Yes!
    Luckily, if you be very careful and pay attention to what you have selected in itunes, you can separate these things
    Basically, in iTunes, there are tabs at the top for Summary, info, apps, etc..
    These tabs control PER DEVICE what syncs between itunes and the device.
    Therefore, you can plug iPhone 4S #1 in, and select to sync contacts with address book, then do so.  Then plug iPhone 4S #2 in, and not choose to sync with address book.  iTunes will keep these settings separate. However, in that situation for music and apps, you would check to sync both on both, in order to get all music and apps on each.
    The only thing to watch out for, each computer 'user' has only one set of address book and ical, meaning that if you want to sync both phones to the computer, but dont want to mix contacts, only one phone will be able to sync contacts and/or calendars.  Basically, each category in the Info tab will only hold one device's information, so you CAN do contacts with iPhone 4S #1, and calendars with #2.

  • My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop?

    My nephew and I use the same iTunes account and when I add an app it is loaded on to his iPhone and vice versa... How do I make that stop? I have already unchecked the "Auto Update Apps" button. It happens with all purchases in the app store and on iTunes. HELP!

    I also think separate accounts is the way to go....if he is over 13yrs also remember if you do make an account for him and use your bank card all purchases will be charged to your card.

  • My husband and I use the same itunes account .we do not want our I pads or iphone to have same apps ,music , etc. how do i fix this?

    My problem is my husband and I use the same itunes account so everything we download on our i pad or i phone goes to both . Can we change this without losing our personal choices.

    You will want to do this on both devices

  • If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    No, it only mirrors changes to synced data.  This includes mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari bookmarks, notes, iWork documents and data, and photo stream photos (assuming you choose to sync all this data).  Changes to iTunes data such as music, apps, podcasts, etc., are not synced using iCloud.  In your example, if you delete an app from one device it will remain on the other until deleted there too.

  • I have an ipad&iPhone but used the same iCloud account for both during setup.i now have ran out of iCloud storage!

    I have an ipad&iPhone but used the same iCloud account for both during setup.i now have ran out of iCloud storage! If I delete the account from iPhone will I lose the apps from my ipad?
    And will new account that i set up on iPhone give me 5gb storage? I assume its not as easy it sounds, it never is!
    It is the camera roll on both devices that are using the storage up, and I know I can transfer the photos to a hard copy, which I will but if I can get 5gb from two separate iCloud accounts then that's the route I will take!
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    Ps I had originally synced the iPad and iPhone but as far as this apple illiterate operator is aware I managed to stop them syncing a few months at lol.thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I assume that the same account is required on both devices (it would be rather awkward otherwise) and that most of your space is consumed by back up.
    You will need to buy more storage or back up to iTunes instead of iCloud.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • HT1535 I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my i

    I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
    This is intensely confusing, sorry.

    Question.....
    "I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
    Answer.....
    Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
    You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.

  • Different apps on different devices using the same itunes account

    I have two iPads for my kids and one iPhone all using the same iTunes account.  I want to be able to have apps on my phone that the Ipads cannot see.  can this be done by using multiple accounts on my iPhone?

    Hi jacyjflorin,
    Having multiple iTunes accounts can cause confusion.
    Would Restrictions on the iPads work for you?

    You created a new AppleID?
    Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

  • Can I use the same iTunes account for 2 iPads without having the same apps on both?

    Can I use the same iTunes account for 2 iPads without having the same apps on both? Everytime I try to sync my new iPad, it syncs all the apps that are on my account. If I can do this, can someone tell me how please???

    Yes you can, easily.  When you plug the first pad in to sync, note the name of the pad on the last pane.  Set up for that device whatever you want to sync.  When you are done, plug the second pad in.  Make sure it has a different name on the left pane.   Then sync to that pad whatever you want.  I tunes will remember what you did on each pad, and will start from there the next time you plug in.
