Is it possible to sync your iphone to 2 pc's (work/home)and keep outlook calendar?

I had a iphone but returned it, but now I need confirmation that it is possible to have an iphone sync between to PCs (work / home).  I want to know if its possible to have it sync the phone with two computers.  Home has itunes for music and such, work doesn't have itunes on it - but I need to make sure that my calendar syncs between the two computers. 
I am concerned that if I sync at home it will upload fine but then if I try to sync at work it will want to delete all my contact on my computer and replace with what's on the iphone?
So basically - is it possible to have your iphone sync with two seperate pc's?  I use outlook calendar and live my life with it - I must be able to use it on the iphone - can you?
Can you change the way names are stored in the contacts, I have businesses and personal contacts - I want to be able to look up a business not have to remember the name of the person who runs it?

You didn't say what contacts application you are syncing your iPhone with, but almost all give you a choice to list contacts by name or by business. That setting on the computer should transfer to the synced iPhone. Works with my Mac.

  • Is it possible to sync an iPhone to one mac for music only and another mac for everything else? What about shared iPhoto?

    I'm trying to figure out the best way to manage my iphone and that of my wife.
    Our set up is that we share music that is on my imac under my apple store id.  We also like to have all of our photos in iphoto on that imac. 
    She has her own macbook and I'd like to use icloud to sink her personal bookmarks, calendar and other stuff.
    I've thought about seeing if I could set her phone up to sync with icloud as appropriate, turn on wireless sync on her imac for syncing everything but music, then sync that same iphone on the imact but just sync music.
    I've tried to point her macbook to my imac itunes library and that doesn't seem to be working very well.
    The other wrinkle is that she is taking photos on her iphone that I'd like to show up in our shared iphoto library and photo stream.  Currently we have our individual icloud apple ids so we may sync our own bookmarks and such and we use a separate "store" id for music and apps and such.  I'm not sure I see a way for me to merge iphotos into a shared library/stream? 
    1.  Any thoughts on the best way to manage two iphones, each with their own computer, but a shared music library?
    2. Any thoughts on the best way to merge iphoto?
    I've been experimenting with setups and I have a feeling folks with more experience have probably worked this out better than the way I'm thinking of doing.
    Thanks.

  • When is it possible to exchange your iPhone 4s for an iPhone 5s?

    When is it possible to exchange your iPhone 4s for an iPhone 5s? After 3 years, my iPhone 4s is no longer working and I have tried everything, including going to the apple store to get it repaired. It will not sync with the music I have on my laptop: new or deleted, and it also skips through songs on itunes on my iphone. It has greyed out songs and won't play any of them. It also changes randomly from vibrate to ring on and off without me touching the switch on the side. It's like my phone is possessed or something. I have tried everything and have decided to soon buy an iphone 5s. Can I get some sort of discount or exhange because the problem is out of my hands? Also, I have recieved a mophie iphone 4s case for christmas. It is buy the iphone 5s, will I be able to exhange my mophie phone case for an iphone 5s mophie phone case?

    Apple will exchange your defective iPhone for one of the same model for their standard out-of-warranty exchange price. They will not upgrade you to an iPhone 5S as part of that program. Apple does accept trade-ins toward purchase of a new iPhone through retail Apple Stores in the US. I've not seen the amount they will allow, so you'll need to talk to your local Apple Store. In a few other countries Apple also works with a company who will give you some return on an existing device; select your country as appropriate on this page:
    http://www.apple.com/recycling/
    Similar programs are available in a few other countries, and some dealers may have their own trade-in programs.
    None, however, will give you much for a phone that has hardware issues, if they'll give you anything at all.
    I have recieved a mophie iphone 4s case for christmas. It is buy the iphone 5s, will I be able to exhange my mophie phone case for an iphone 5s mophie phone case?
    That would depend on who you bought the case from and their return policies. If you bought it from Apple, then you have fourteen days from date of purchase to return it. If you purchased from a dealer, you'll have to ask the dealer about a return.
    Regards.

    You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not appear to be related to. You will probably get better help by posting in the Using iPhone forum.

    Take a look at this Apple doc -> iTunes: About iOS backups
    It shows the locations of backups and how to use them with iTunes.

    can you sync your iphone to a specific date?

    The only control you have is that, if you're syncing Calendars in iTunes, you can specify how many days back you want to go (e.g. "Last 30 days")
    Other than that, not really - you can do thing slike limit how meany messages Mail downloads, but that's not much help

  • Is it possible to sync the iphone with my company's email server

    Is it possible to sync the iphone with my company's email server (Novell Groupwise)? I have the option of getting a blackberry or iphone. I want the iphone, but I also want to be able to sync it with my work email since I am away from the office a lot. I know I need to contact the IT department, but I thought I would try here to see what experiences people had with this sistuation. Thanks.

    Depends on what protocols they will allow (or can). If they open up POP or better yet IMAP access, then yes, sure. It is all about the protocols available to you (them). Though note, the iPhone checks on an interval where the Blackberry has emails pushed to it. So with iPhone, the min interval time is 15mins.

  • HT1386 After I synced my iphone with itunes, all my contacts disappeared, and I cannot find them.  Need help!!

    After I synced my iphone with itunes, all my contacts disappeared, and I cannot find them.

    You don't.
    You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
    And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer.

    If they really meant that much to you, they would have been copied off to a computer at the earliest possible opportunity.
    I personally find it amazing that people get so upset when pictures "accidentally" get deleted and then scream about how important they are.  You wouldn't leave important paper work lying around to be lost/damaged/stolen, so why take a chance with important pictures on a device that can so easily be lost/damaged/stolen, or deleted by a child.
