Saving Saving separate app sets for two iPhones?

Hi,
This has probably been asked before, sorry if redundant.
I have an iPhone and an iPad, my wife has an iPhone. We prefer different apps on pur phones and a different set for the iPad. iTunes recognizes the devices with different names when they are attached, but the app set from the last device attached is still checked.
It's a real pain to have to go through, checking and unchecking each time, just to Sync one or two new items.
Is there a way to "save" your app set for each item so that when you connect a device, it recognizes it AND the last app set you choose for that device?
Probably a real easy solution but darned if I can figure it out.
Thanks
Joe

The recommended way to handle things is with separate user accounts on the Mac. You'll both have separate iTunes libraries and address books/calendars. You can also each use your own iTunes account much easier that way.
IF you insist on sharing one user account, you can select which groups of contacts sync to each phone in the iTunes preferences. You could also forego syncing contacts with the Mac and sync them with a service like Google or Yahoo instead. This will keep them separate.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

  • 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.

  • TS1702 We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    This happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck the other phone's phone number, if present.

    HI
    I was trying to take my Mac air to factory default settings.
    I've done all that it says in the documment i was following, and them during the process it asked me the APPLE ID.
    I put the apple id i have in my iphone. But it's not the one... it's said that i don't have any OSX associated with it... so it can not install the OSX.
    So what can i do?

  • I setup a separate itunes account for my iphone. I put my ipod music onto it. The music will not sync to my iphone. It tells that all info will be lost if I do it. HELP! The music is showing in the library.

    you can connect the iPhone to your mac and import those iPhone photos and videos to iPhoto assuming you have iPhoto. You can create a folder and export all those photos to the Finder. Keep safe somewhere.  Also keep the iPhoto library for safe keeping. When you restore your iPhone you can sync all those photos back to the iPhone. so you will lose nothing. Just remember when you export from iPhoto select jpeg for photos and original for videos taken with the iPhone.

  • How do I create different contacts lists for two iphone/users?

    How do I create different contacts lists for two iphone/users?

    Sorry. This doesn't make a lot of sense. Each iPhone user should have their own cloud accounts with which to sync contacts.
    The iPhone is not a multi-user device.

  • Can I use same result set for two queries?

    Hi,
    Can I use the same result set for two queries?
    For example:
    ResultSet rs = null;
    rs = ps.executeQuery(query1);
    while (rs.next()) {
    rs = ps.executeQuery(query2);
    while (rs.next()) {
    Is it OK to use? or Is there any preformance issues?
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sure. You have a variable of ResultSet type. First you create a ResultSet and assign it to that variable. Then later you create another ResultSet and assign it to that same variable. Assigning an object reference to a variable takes essentially no time, and at any rate it isn't any faster to assign it to a different variable. Also, no matter whether you use one variable or two, you are still creating two ResultSets.
    However, you really should be closing your ResultSets after you finish using them. That's nothing to do with the assigning-to-a-variable question.

  • I used te same email for two iPhones

    I used the same email for two iPhones all the contacts from the other phone came to mine how to undo that or how to erase

    On your iPhone go to settings, then iCloud, at the bottom of that screen click the big read button to delete account. Save your contacts just in case when it asks, you can delete them later. Now start over and create a new apple id. Use re new id to create your iCloud's account. Do this for every phone. Every phone has its unique apple is for iCloud, but in iTunes use the original apple id so you can continue to share music and apps
