Syncing 2 iphone on same computer...
Hi
I need you expertize
Someone nea to me say that he synced his iphone on the same computer than another friend who already had synced his own phone on this same computer.
The guy tell me that now when i send him text message the otther receive it too...
Question, do you think is lying or is in theory possible please ?
Both phones are tied to the same AppleID, both get same iMessage. But if the text message is not an iMessage and got sent thru the carrier, then each phone is different cause of the phone #. iMessages get sent thru the Internet and the carrier doesn't handle them. So clarify to see if leg pulling is occurring.

Syncing 2 iphones on same computer
Husband and I both have new iphone 4s. Syncing on a PC results in each of us having the other's contacts. How can we stop this??
You can sync multiple iPods and/or iPhones with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer - there is no device limit, and each iPod and/or iPhone can have its own sync preferences with iTunes. IMO, it is best to disable automatic syncing when an iPod or iPhone is connected so you can confirm the sync settings for each iPhone when connected before syncing.

HT1386 syncing multiple iPhones on same computer
How can I sync two iPhones on the same laptop? right now they are both treated as one.
See this support document for help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495, however, there is no way that iTunes can treat two devices as the same, unless you have the settings in iTunes for the two devices set the same. Each iOS device is identified differently in iTunes. It is how you set iTunes to handle the two devices that can differ.
Why are you saying they are treated as one? -
Hi, I need help and advice. Basically me and my ex partner both had iphones and synced it with the same computer under the same ID. We split up and now im trying to get all my apps and info onto my new laptop with a new account but it keeps asking me for the old apple ID which she is still using and she changed the password. i tried backing it up but still nohing. When i try to back up purchased items being apps etc its keeps asking for the old one. help
See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. But you'll still need the password.
Once you have the computer authorized to use the account she could change the password again to stop you buying apps on her card (assuming it's not on yours!). It would lock you out of upgrading them too but they should work unless she uses the deathorize all feature.
It depends on how amicable the split is...

Can someone please help me get my iPhone to sync to your computer?
I can not sync my iPhone to the computer. I keep getting up an error message that synchronization does not want to start. I have uninstalled iTunes and then reinstall it. But the same warning box will appear. How can I get my phone in sync again?Hello lenmin,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To help resolve this issue where you're repeatedly prompted to authorize with your Apple ID in iTunes when syncing, please follow the directions in the article below.

My iPhone has two identical options under "iTunes wi-fi sync" that are the same computer. I only have one user on my computer, and I tried moving my iTunes file in Finder to organize it and now my library's not synced with my phone. Help?
I have the same problem. Right now my iPhone 5S shows 3 instances of the computer to which it is connected under Settings » General » iTunes WiFi Sync. I'm having problems connecting and syncing, and this is probably the cause: the phone chooses one of these connections, and it isn't the one that's actually in use. What's probably happening is that the phone and computer establish a connection using a dynamic IP address, the address becomes "disassociated" due to error, another address is associated, the phone retains each address/link, and each link is displayed as if it represents a separate computer (the fact that the name of the computer is identical is ignored, as the only thing that is considered important is the IP address). But that's all conjecture. More important, I'm not sure how to fix the problem. A network reset doesn't do it.

i have just synced my iphone to my computer and all of my contacts went onto the computer and off my phone !! i have a mac .when i sync contacts i click on all contacts and only seven are going onto the phone !! can someone please give me an awnser
When you connect the iPhone to sync with the new computer, a number of things will happen. If the new computer/iTunes does not contain any music, then yes, you will receive a prompt saying this iPhone is synced to another library, and if you continue, you will lose your music. However, you risk losing a number of other things, such as apps, contacts and calendar data. When you ask about photos, any photos that you have on the iPhone that were synced from the previous computer would also be lost. You need to save the photo folder from the old laptop and transfer that to the new desktop. You also need to sync the contacts and calendar to the same supported application that you were using in the past, such as Outlook, unless you are using an outside web-based sync, such as Google. Also, when you first connect the iPhone, it will make a backup, or at least make sure that it does before you attempt to sync, or you will not have a backup of some of the other things, such as mail settings, SMS, and the contents of the Camera Roll. I would import the photos from the camera roll to the new computer before trying to do anything else in iTunes.

Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!
iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu. -
Syncing 2 iPhones to 1 computer
Hi. My whole family just got new iPhones (now we have 1 original iPhone and 3 3g iPhones). The probably is we only have 3 computers. Is there a way that my mom and dad (who have a 3g and an original one) to sync their iPhones to the same computer without syncing eachother's contacts, photos, notes, and all of that stuff. They might end up sharing SOME music, but not all of the same.
So bottom line: Is there a way to sync TWO iPhones to ONE computer each with it's own information?
THANKS!The easiest way for them would be to create 2 playlists, one for each of them.
-Mom's iPhone Music
-Dad's iPhone Music
Connect the first iPhone (lets say your mom's) and go to the music syncing options, select sync that playlist only. Now do the same with your dad's and select sync his playlist only. Now your parents can drag/drop and delete music from those playlists without messing with the full library at all. They won't have to worry about getting the wrong stuff or deleting stuff on the other person's iPhone. They just make the changes to their list and hit sync and the changes happen.
Also note, each iPhone (and iPod) syncs independently. You can sync as many as you want with a single computer, you just have to set them up to not conflict with other devices by using different playlists and other methods like that. -
I am having trouble syncing my Iphone to the computer. Everytime I connect it....it says 'sync in progress' and on Itunes it says 'backing up in progress' but nothing really happens. It goes on forever...I end up disconnecting......please advise.
If you ever want to cut down on back up times eject your SIM card before starting...you should see the over all time go down a noticable amount.
Disclaimer: this does not mean that it will zip like lightning, just move faster than it dies with the card in...
let me know what you see happen. -

If you are using a Windows based computer, try disabling a/v software and turning off the Firewall.
Disable antivirus software

Then try syncing you iPhone. -
