ITunes renaming 'Favourites' playlist to 'Favourites1' after sync? + 2 iPhone's on 1 iTunes?

Good Morning,
2 questions here ...
1) I created a Playlist on my iPhone called 'Favourites' comprising of, wait for it ... my favourites! But yet when I then sync to iTunes it splits the Playlist into two on my iPhone - ones is titled as I made it 'Favourites' and then there is another one called 'Favouries 1'.
All of the tunes I originally selected on the device are now split between the two playlists so what I have been doing is deleting both after the sync and then having to manually re-add the Playlist on the device but I'm getting a little bored of this - any advice?!?
2) My GF is expecting her 4S today - we have one laptop, and of course 1 iTunes. I dont want to set two different user areas on it really, and am hoping we can share the 1 iTunes just with two difefrent Apple ID's.
What are peoples thoughts on this?
We will have different contacts/music etc so I'm hoping that the two ID's will be enough.
Thanks in advance,
Giles.

The backup for each iPhone should be different, but having a different name for each iPhone ensures this. Go to iTunes > Preferences. Under the Devices tab you can view the backup for each device. You can delete the backup for each device from there also.
The backup for an iPhone stores data such as most iPhone settings, email account settings, contact info, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, photos in the camera roll, and 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app.
The operating system is included with the firmware update that is downloaded when you choose to download a firmware update when notified a firmware update is available for your iPhone. When restoring an iPhone with iTunes, the iPhone is completely erased followed by re-installing the current firmware version from the firmware download that remains on your computer.

After syncing my iphone to my itunes on my pc, all the music on my phone is gone. I don't have a backup. Is there any way I can get them back?

If you had no other backup....NOPE! However, if you purchased your songs from iTunes, check out: iTunes Store - Finding Lost Music FAQ

This year, the government has canceled the daylight saving time , that's why happening this problem to me so I changed the time zone in iPhone from Cairo,Egypt (GMT+2 with daylight saving) to Harare,Zimbabwe (GMT+2 without daylight saving , no change in time from summer & winter) & now working good, no change in time after sync. , But it's very stupid thing from apple that they didn't add an option in time setting to enable or disable the daylight saving time like any other mobile.

Caller id not working after syncing my iphone to my pc?

caller id not working after syncing my iphone to my pc?

Syncing with iTunes has nothing to do with this, especially when not syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer which very few Windows users seem to be inclined to do.
Caller ID is not working in which way?

HT2513 one of my caledars disappeared after sync with iphone? where is it? How do I get it back?

one of my caledars disappeared after sync with iphone? where is it?

Generally your library will be in your music folder in an iTunes folder, more specifically a library.itl file. If it isn't there then for some reason it has disappeared and can be restored from the backup you make of your computer.

After syncing my iphone I found that all of my notes were erased from the phone. Is there any way to retrieve the notes now that they have been erased? I had some very important notes that I have to be able to find. Anyone know how?

I think those contacts still in iphone database. So you can back up you iphone with itunes to get iphone database off your iphone. Then access the SQLite batabse.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
All data included with the backup is stored in a SQLite database format with the data within various folders not easily accessible.There are some 3rd party utilities that provide for extracting select data from an iPhone's backup and iphone database such as this one.

Solution toiCal crashes after syncing with iPhone?

Since the 1.1.1 iPhone update (at least it seems related to this), iCal crashes when I start it on my Mac Pro (10.4.10) after syncing my iPhone. I can fix this by opening iSync, going to preferences and choosing to reset sync history. After that, iCal runs fine (although it adds a new calendar (with a blank label on it). I can open it, close it, etc. But as soon as I sync my iPhone again, it crashes and I have to open iSync again and reset the sync history. Any ideas on how to solve this issue?
Thanks

Thanks for posting this - I am having the exact same problem right now! I tried your solution and I can reopen iCal, but not sure what happens if I sync my data again...has anyone found a solution to this??

HT1386 Change of order in playlists. Problems after sync

I have my ipod classic for many years, but recently encountered problems after sync. Itunes changes the order of tracks in my playlists. I want them be ordered by album, but itunes ordered it by "ticked". I tried to change it before sync. First this seem to be work, but now the order is again wrong. I find this really annoying, because "ticked" seemed to mean to be similar to "by name" of tracks. This does not make any sense for my music.
Any ideas, what I can do?

This is the iPod touch forum.

Extra playlists show up after sync

I have only 4 playlists in itunes. When I sync any songs at all with my iphone, about 20 playlists show up only on my iphone; all old playlists I had deleted long ago. This problem didn't show up until I updated to itunes 11, anyone know how to fix this?
i delete them on my phone but they show up again after i sync, even though they're not on my itunes.

Hello dylanwang,
You may want to try recreating your iTunes Library and playlists, as there may be some data in the iTunes database that is displaying correctly in iTunes, but causing problems through the sync process.

Why itunes doesn't start anymore after sync another iphone?

Hello geeky friends,
please help me to clear the following matter. I tried to sync another iPhone using the mobile owner account for the iTunes as well. After an error window popped-up (error 13014) than i'm even unable to start the program anymore, why? how to solve?
thanks for the support & god bless Steve Jobs!!!

the problem is solved ! I completely removed Itunes and all other Apple Software from my computer. Then I downloaded Itunes64Setup.exe again and installed it, without being connected to the internet and with my antivirus and firewall turned off.
This worked !

Application disappeared after sync'ing iPhone to iTunes

I rarely sync my iPhone with iTunes. Tonight I plugged my phone in, and decided to sync apps with my mac b/c I had downloaded an app on my laptop that I wanted on the phone. I'm not sure what dialog I clicked on, but one of the 10 apps on my iPhone (which I purchased) wasn't synced to the Mac and has now disappeared from my iPhone.
It's a paid app, and so I don't know if I can simply download it again w/out being charged.
Ideas on what I should do?

Redownload it. There's no charge. See this kbase article:

Events not showing in iCal after sync with iPhone

A whole week of appointments don't show up in iCal after syncing with my iPhone - all the appointments are on my iPhone but they won't copy over.
Funnily enough, the week that is not showing up is changing every Monday...
Anyone seen this before?

I found this solution in another discussion. It's from this website: http://iphonewriter.blogspot.co.nz/2008/05/how-to-fixing-ical-iphone-sync-issues .html)
"You'll know the syncing issue when you see it, because the new events you enter into the Calendar on your Apple iPhone will not appear in iCal. Said another way, you'll enter a new event into your iPhone, use iTunes to sync with your Mac (or MacBook in our case) and the new event on your iPhone will not show up in iCal. Keep trying, synch as you might, iCal and the Apple iPhone just won't get along.
Here's the down and dirty fix:
Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
Re-Open the iCal application and Restore your calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier.
At this point all my appointments were showing up properly in iCal, and did not disappear after syncing again with the iPhone.
