Sync only photo libraries from two iPhones on two separate accounts

I have an iPhone with about 50 albums(5 to 10 photos in each album) in it. I want to sync only the albums from my phone to a friend's phone, and leave the rest of his phone unaltered. He uses a different computer and a different carrier (we have three carriers in Canada).
Is this possible?
I know that I can accomplish this by burning my library to disc, and loading it on his computer. This would be awkward as I create two to four new albums each day for work purposes.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Transfer of photos (except those taken on the phone itself) is one-way - from computer to phone. Also, connecting the phone to a computer to which it doesn't normally sync results in the content being erased, since the iPhone syncs with only one iTunes library, by design.
You may be better off using online photo sharing sites. There are apps to share photos over Flickr, Shutterfly, etc.

I have an iPad 1 to which I synced my photo libraries from my laptop. Unfortunately that laptop got stolen. I now have an iPad 2 as well with a new laptop. How do I get my photo libraries from my iPad 1 to my iPad 2 and to my new laptop...?

I assume that you haven't got a backup copy of them (?). You can copy photos that were originally synced from a computer off the iPad via third-party apps such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network - you can then sync them to your other iPad. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

When I try to sync a new audiobook from Audible on my iPod, I get the message that's not possible because the iPod "may only contain content from two Audible accounts." I

When I try to put an audiobook on my iPod, I get message the "iPod may only contain content fro two Audible accounts." I had an old Audible account, which I used to download books. I cancelled that and recently opened a new Audible account and downloaded the book that will not transfer to the iPod. I also have an iTouch which I bought second-hand, and the previous owner may have had an Audible account.

How to sync different photo libraries from different apple devices used with the same ID

Basically, I have two iphones (4 and 5s). Both iphones are synced in Itunes as regards apps, music and all documents but for photos.
Each iphone has different photos, being neither of both libraries synced to Itunes or my pc. The problem is that when I bought the Iphone 5s and I tried to sync also the photos from the iphone 4 to later have them synched to the brand new iphone 5s, Itunes was not able to just copy the photos from the iphone into the pc, but rather copying the pictures from the PC into the iphone 4, removing all existing photos.
Also, icloud could not be used because I have more than 5gbs in photos.
Now the problem is that i got a new Ipad, and I would like to got into my ipad all the pictures from my iphone 4 and iphone 5s. Again icloud is not enough due to the 5gb limit.
How could i proceeed to merge both libraries and have them successfully synced in all my devices?
Thank you very much in advance

Also, icloud could not be used because I have more than 5gbs in photos.
iCloud does not store your photos anyway. The photo streams are only a temporary storage to stream new photos between your devices. You could use the shared streams as long-term storage, but shared streams store the photos only at a reduced quality. The photo stream does not count agains your iCloud storage, so that would not matter. (see: iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ)
If you have iPhoto on your iPhones, you could transfer your photos from your iPhones to your PC using iTunes Photo Sharing, see this Help document:
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkee26bc1f
Save photos to your computer using iTunes

Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap one or more photos, and tap Next.
Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
In iTunes, click the button for your device and click Apps at the top of the window.
Below File Sharing, select iPhoto (in Apps).

Is there a way to sync only my music from my iphone to my ipad and NOT anything else like apps?

I have an iPhone 3 and a brand new iPad 2. I was wondering if there was a way I can sync my music, but not everything else such as apps. I don't want my apps from my phone on my ipad, only the music. How do I go about this?
Please&Thankyou!!

iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
For everything else (music from CDs etc.) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.
A selection of iPod/iPhone to iTunes utilities:
Senuti Mac Only (iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

My old iPod touch won't sync my photo videos from my iPhone 5

I recorded videos on my iphone 5 and want to put them on my old ipod touch. When I use itunes to save the videos and then sync it to my old ipod touch it just says could not be synced see itunes for more information on my ipod. PS the ipod touch is the old one without a camera.

See:
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
The phone takes HD videos but your old iPod can only play/sync SD video.
If the Create New version disscussed in the above links does not work you will need a third-party converter like the free Handbrake.

Consolidating two different iTunes libraries from two different accounts

My boyfriend and I have been living together for a while and we need to consolidate our music libraries. We have a new iMac, which we wish to use to house all of our songs. We would like to be able to play any song from either library anywhere in the apt. using our Airplay speakers. How is it possible to condolidate our iTunes library, given that we have different iTunes accounts?
Thanks!

I have a iphone 4s with ios 8.3 and I used to be able to sync only a week or two of emails from outlook email. Now it won't let me do that and it syncs all my inbox. How can I change it back to sync less. I can't find the right place.

I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

How do I copy or sync a photo album from iPhone to iMac (copying album not camera roll)

Is there a way to copy or sync specific pictures just from a photo album from my iPhone (5s) to my iMac?
I don't want to have to select each & every one again from my camera roll when I've already taken the time to organize the photos I want to an album on my iphone.
I usually sync photos to my work PC where I know it only shows the entire camera roll.
Now I'm trying to sync to my wife's iMac, but again it would be nice to be able to select the specific album I want and not have to go through my entire (3000+ pics) camera roll

For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

Please Help!!

You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

Sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts

Howdy Springcheer,
While this is not syncing per se, I'm wondering if iCloud Photo Sharing will do what you need to get photos from two separate iCloud accounts to your PC.
