Syncing iPhone and iPad

Can I direct some apps to my iPhone and others to my iPad?  I don't want everything on both devices.

Hi,
Yes,you can sync different app to each device.  You can either do this in iTunes by selecting apps in the 'Apps' tab with the device connected, or delete the app form the device if it is already synced.
Best wishes

  • Syncing iPhone and iPad with iTunes

    I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2 which I sync to the same iTunes on my home PC. Every time I connect my iPhone to my iTunes, it invariably gets synced with whatever apps, music, movies and books which I synced to my iPad 2.   How do I configure my iTunes in such a way that I sync different sets of apps, movies, music, etc. to both my iPhone and iPad? Thank you.

  • Syncing iPhone and iPad with Mac Book Pro

    Is it possible to sync my iPhone and iPad to my Mac Book Pro and have the same screens and apps? I see where all apps appear in my iPad syncing window, but I cannot make it exactly like my iPhone... Is this possible? Thank you!

    Hi Kristi,
    Connect your iPad and your iPhone to your MBPro. Launch iTunes. Under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window you can select either device then select Apps from the menu.
    You can drag home screens and rearrange apps right from that window. Very smart idea on your part to do that. That way it's the same (or close to) on both devices.

  • Syncing iPhone and iPad with same id

    Hello, I have an iPad and an iPhone and when I sync iphone he "gets" all I have on the iPad, as if by synchronizing id. How can I do to avoid this?

    open itunes, connect ipad, select what you want, sync, disconnect ipad.
    Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync.

  • I can no longer sync iphone and ipad - 'cannot access conflicts' unable to retrieve conflict info from sync server' - any ideas please?  Previous enquirer with this didn't seem to find an answer?

    anybody found this and got the answer?  both ipad and iphone used to be ok, just started happening last couple of months.
    See from communities question that I'm not the only one, but don't seem to be able to find solution posted anywhere.
    It's really annoying cos now ipad, iphone and outlook are all saying they don't match appointments and contacts - aaaarrrgghhhh!

    Here is the solution. 
    Rationale: You want to be able to have the dates on your items (notes, contacts) on your iphone to be the same as on outlook.  This will eliminate any sync conflicts.  You will also notice that if you modify something on the iphone and sync, you will lose the modification you made.
    Steps:
    1) In outlook, export the data (contacts, notes) to a CSV file
    2) Delete you notes/contacts in outlook
    3) Sync your iphone and select replace information on this iPhone (in iTunes)
    4) Now your contacts and notes will be empty on both your iPhone and Outlook
    5) Now import your contacts and notes from the CSV files back into outlook.  What this does is put the current date and time on every individual item
    6) Sync your iPhone to iTunes normally
    7) everything will work correctly now with no sync issues and no conflicts.

  • ICloud syncing iPhones and iPad but not to iCloud nor my Mac

    I have two iPhones, an iPad and two MacBooks. iCloud is used for syncing the content. This all works ok, except for the Address book. Address book content is synced only between the iDevices but neither to the iCloud Web-Portal nor to my Macs. This is very puzzling because I thought all the synchronization is done through iCloud, so how can the iCloud Portal and my Macs be left out. Especially given the fact, that the calendar sync works perfectly.
    Here's what I did to verify:
    - create a new address record named "test iPhone" on my iPhone. The record shows up on my iPad, but not in the web and not on my Macs
    - create a new address record named "test iPad" on my iPad. The record show up on my iPhone, but not on the web and not on my Macs.
    - create a new address record named "test Mac" on my Mac. The record shows up in the web and on my iDevices
    - create a new address record named "test Web" via iCloud web interface. The record shows up on my Macs, but not on the iDevices
    any ideas?

    You can have each individual service turned on or off, so while you may not be using 2 iCloud accounts, it is perfectly possible to use 2 accounts and get exactly the results you are getting.
    Why don't you look to see if you are using 2 accounts, you could check settings > mail, contacts and calendars on your phone and iPad or just look at the contacts app.

  • Syncing iPhone (and iPad) to new Computer

    I will be switching computers (a Dell to a MacBook Pro) and will need to move all my music to the new MacBook Pro and use the MBP as my host computer to sync my iPad and iPhone to.  Is there anyway to not lose my playlists, photos, etc. when I sync to the new MacBook pro for the first time?  Thanks. 

    I think if you move the contents of your library to your Mac it should appear in new iTunes, if not you may drag items to it.
    However, you may read this to get it done more correctly.

    as well do not forget to deauthorize your iTunes account on PC when the new iTunes is set up.

  • HT1386 I am trying to sync my iPad with my phone. I don't have a Mac so I can't use the above info. How do I sync iPhone and iPad using the cloud?

    Syncing my iPad with my iPhone via wifi

    It depends on what you mean by "sync the iPad with the iPhone". Technically, you can't sync the devices like you would sync with a computer anyway, so you can't think that way. You can keep the two devices in sync, but if you want two devices with identical content on them, you have to restore one device from the backup of the other device for starters.
    After  that, you would have to download the same apps on the one device that you have on the other device, download all of the same songs, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and so on. The you would have have iCloud enabled on both devices in order to keep app data in sync, if the apps work with iCloud. So enable iCloud on bit devices and go to Settings>iCloud and turn on all of the items in there...mail, notes, reminders, Safari, calendar, photo stream, contacts, documents and data, etc.
    You would also have to turn on automatic downloads in Settings> iTunes & App Store>Automatic Downloads> on for songs, apps and books so that whatever you download on one device downloads to the other device.
    If you have any apps that do not work with iCloud for the purposes of syncing app data, it will be impossible to keep the two devices identical total in content.

  • How do I stop MacBook syncing with iPhone and iPad mini

    My MacBook automatically starts to sync iPhone and iPad when I open iTunes. I only want to sync with my iMac, but MacBook seems to override what I want as default for syncing. I have under preferences device ticked box to prevent syncing but it makes no difference.
    Any help would be appreciated

    On the PC from the Windows Start menu, choose Control Panel > Network and Internet > iCloud.
    Make sure Mail is selected.
    On the iPhone and iPad tap Settings > iCloud
    Make sure Mail is switched ON.
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
    "iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

  • Ok Apple users...Is there a way to delete e-mails on my Mac and not have to delete the same e-mails on my iPhone, and iPad...and vise-versa. I have the Cloud, and thought that everything would sync all of the time. If you know of a setting I need to adjus

    Ok Apple users...Is there a way to delete e-mails on my Mac and not have to delete the same e-mails on my iPhone, and iPad...and vise-versa. I have the Cloud, and thought that everything would sync all of the time. If you know of a setting I need to adjust, please let me know.

    Are you referring to @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com emails? Or some other email providers emails?
    If the former, it should do that automatically. If the latter, no. iCloud does not (nor is it supposed to) sync non-Apple provided emails.

  • Songs I purchased in iTunes, after syncing with my iPhone and iPad, show up in the library and playlist on the computer. They are in the songs lists on both devices but do not actually transfer to the playlist on either though the computer says they have.

    I purchased four songs in iTunes, downloaded them, then did a sync with both my iPhone and iPad.  All songs show up in the libraries of both devices. I then added these songs to a playlist on the computer then synced both devices again.  According to iTunes on the computer, all four songs are in the playlists on both devices.  However, on the actual devices, only two of the four are in the playlists.  All four are still showing up in the library.  I created another playlist specifically for these four songs to see what would happend, dragged them to the playlist on the computer, then did another sync.  Once again, according to the computer, all the songs are in the playlists on the devices.  However, only two of the four are actually in the playlists on the phone and iPad. Any ideas what's going on?

    Lynn,
    I had a very similar issue (same playlist).  After several frustrating hours of various combinations I was able to sync by changing the options to "manuall sync.." and then "dragging and dropping" the needed playlist from the iTunes Playlist list to the iPhone button (on my itunes setup/view that was from the far left column list of all of my  playlist in iTunes to the far upper right "iPhone" button).  To sum up "checking" the playlist and syncing didnt work, "drag and droping" the playlist did... at least for now... then I unselected the "manually manage" in the options and re-synced and all playlist were synced correctly.  Good Luck.

  • I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentione

    I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

    And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
    You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
    But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
    Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?

  • Why can't I update or load new apps on my iPhone and iPad. It does not ask me for my password. I tried to sync from my laptop now I am unable to connect to any sites from internet explorer. When I try to update or load any app it tells me it is corrupt

    Why can't I update or load new apps on my iPhone and iPad. It does not ask me for my password. I tried to sync from my laptop now I am unable to connect to any sites from internet explorer. When I try to update or load any app it tells me it is corrupt

    You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.
