Syncing 2 iphones with Mobileme account and family pack account

I can't seem to get this answered.. I have a .mac (mobileme) account and I just upgraded the account to the family plan which give me 4 additional accounts. I am trying to sync the second email account up with my ical and contacts and I can't figure out how to accomplish this. The ical and contacts are under my email and not the family pack email. I would like to know how you share ical and contacts with multiple iphones..........

Probably, but that would result in much logging in and out as we both access the home computer many times in one day. Also, I find that Windows XP slows down a bit with multiple accounts. (Still haven't upgraded to Mac yet... It's coming!) I'll give it a shot when I get home and see if it works. Thank you.
Does anyone else have any experience with this setup?

  • Wann sync iPhone with work PC and home PC

    Hi,
    please help!!! Wanna sync my iPhone with work PC and home PC without deleting always the whole content on it.
    thanks

    The iphone will sync itunes content and pics with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync itunes content and/or pics to another computer, then the itunes content and pics ( photo album) will first be erased from the iphone, then replace with content from the new computer.
    What is it that you are trying to sync?

  • Syncing iPhone with MobileMe and iCal

    I know that when I'm set up right the changes I make on one device (iPhone, iCal, MobileMe) sync to all other devices. Here is my question. iPhone calendar *****; so, at work I want to be able to create calendar events on my personal Mac and sync through iTunes (Mac will not be connected to internet and I can't access MobileMe from work computer). I need to be able to create recurring events that are custom (beyond the bare-basic the iPone calendar offers).
    Can I use the option to sync with iCal through iTunes while Mac is not connected to the internet and still use MobileMe? I have tried this but keep getting duplicate calendar and contacts entries.
    Do I have to use one or the other?

    Doing both does nothing but duplicate the calendars and calendar events on your iPhone. When doing both, each is synced and stored separately and differently on the iPhone. The calendars and calendar events synced direct with iCal via the iTunes sync process are stored separately and not synced over the air with your iPhone and vice-versa.

  • Syncing iPhone with new MBP and/or iMac

    I'm ready to upgrade my white MacBook 13" and I'm a new iPhone user as of Jan'10. My question is will it be painless to connect my iPhone to a new MacBook Pro or iMac and have iTunes recognize it? Would there be any complications maybe? Thank you in advance for any assistance!

    Restore iTunes on your new Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382
    Disable autosync in itunes, connect your phone, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures taken with the phone and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer. Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your phone got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

  • Problem with syncing IPhone with Outlook mail and calendar

    I followed all the instructions to reload, replug, turn on/off iphone & computer, but my new iphone still will not sync. The message says that sync is in progress; syncing calendar, and then:
    Error message: "Could not sync calendar to the IPhone because the IPhone disconnected."
    Any other suggestions?

    I am having the same problem with my phone.
    It works sometimes but usually it stops syncing in the middle of the operation.
    The syncing prompt dissapears from the iPhone and then Itunes locks up..
    Hopefully sombody has an answer?!

  • Syncing my iPhone with my Mac and MobileMe, leaves 2 Sets of calendars

    After I sync my iPhone with MobileMe & my Mac I have 2 identical sets of calendars on my iPhone.
    They are named "me.com" and "On my iPhone".
    All calendar items are shown twice on the phone.

    Deleted the contacts from where?  The device? the computer? both?
    Use the backup of the computer to put them back if they have been deleted off the computer.  Once that is done, they can be synced to the iPhone.

    You do the opposite of how you got them on your phone, you unsync the pics using iTunes.

    Hey there rmflint,
    It sounds like you are wanting to update the Apps that were synced over from your computer to your new iPhone 5s. If you are clicking Updates in the App Store in the bottom right corner, would you mind clarifying what happens when you are trying to update them?

    When you saw this dialog box, did you choose "Erase and Sync"?
    If you did, your iPhone was erased, then your iTunes Library was transferred to it. If your iTunes Library was empty, your iPhone will be also.
    Your previously purchased music, apps, books, and videos are still yours. You just have to download them again.

  • HT4972 The computer that I normally sync my iphone with has crashed and all info was lost.... Im trying to sync to my new laptop... how do I do this without losing iphone purchases, apps etc???? Help??

    The computer that I normally sync my iphone with has crashed and all info lost.... I'm trying to sync and update with my new laptop but I am getting an error meassage that if I continue all purchases, apps etc will be deleted..... How to I do this without losing all my stuff??? Help I have no clue about technology!!!!!

    The official way to do it is to restore the iTunes library that was on your old computer to your new computer using the backup of your whole system you regularly update.  Then you are syncing the phone with the same old library.
    Some of the information below is summarized by turingtest2 in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18842615
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

    Did you check the box that says 'Synchronize Apps'? This happened to a friend and after she enabled this synchronization she was able to use her apps as she did before.
