Syncing two iphones on one computer

My wife does not want my contact list and my music copied to her phone whenever she plugs her phone into our computer. Is there an easy way to sync each phone separately?

When syncing multiple iPods or iOS devices with the same iTunes library, each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes.
I sync a personal iPhone 5S, business iPhone 5, and personal iPad with iTunes on the same computer. Some of the three have the same content, but my sync settings for each is different.
If she does not want to sync her contacts with the same supported address book app on the computer if this is being done with iTunes, she deselects Sync Contacts under the Info tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
Under the Music tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, she selects the music she wants synced followed by a sync.

    Is there any way to sync two iphones on one computer?

    The easiest least complicated way to keep your info and her info seperate and not worry about things is to take advantage of user profiles on your computer (in XP)...so each of you log into XP with your own accounts, thus iTunes (and any other software like mail, etc) all have your own settings.
    Otherwise, you will have to watch which account is logged into iTunes Store (click store and see what name is up top right in case you both have different accounts)...and make sure you are logged in with the right account before syncing. iTunes does know the difference between your phones so each can setup different settings of what to sync to, but your library on your computer will be mixed unless you do what I said first, use different profiles (user logins) for XP.

  • Syncing two iphones with one computer

    A co-worker and I share a secretary. We'd like to be able to sync our individual calendars (in Outlook '03) on our secretary's PC.
    Is this possible?

    UPDATE:
    Well I thought I figured it out when I realized iTunes gives you the option of syncing only selected calendars. My plan was to check only my calendar to sync with my phone and Gary's calendar to syn with his phone.
    Unfortunately, the option to sync only selected calendars is grayed out in iTunes. I can only check the "sync all calendars" box.
    Surely others have figured out how to sync two phones with one computer and only have the data you specify synced to the specific phone.
    Do I have to create another Windows user account where only Gary's calendar is maintained and then switch back and forth between user accounts whenever syncing?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Sync Two Iphone On One Laptop

    My girl-friend owns a 16GB 3GS running on software version 3.1.2 and I own a 32GB 3GS running software version 3.1.3. After I sync both iphone on my laptop, nothing works on the 16GB iphone. The moment I tap on any Apps, it returns to the home screen immediately. Everything works fine for my 32GB iphone. I am using only one I-tunes store account.

    Can I downgrade from version 3.1.3 to 3.1.2? No reverting to a previous version is not allowed...legally in the TOU rules by Apple
    When I say yes and no... I mean it can be done but the steps you're using is not the best way...
    Best bet is to use a different user log in for that PC and then create two iTunes accounts... you can still share apps and music via Home sharing and copy items back and forth

    How to sync two IPhone with one PC , but with different applications ?
    We have two IPhones , but one PC , we want to sync separately , is that possible ?

    Absolutely, connect each phone, select what content you want on each phone, then hit the sync button. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs, including separate backups.

  • Why can I only sync my iPhone on one computer???

    I was just wondering why I can only sync music onto my iPhone from one computer?? and not multiple like you can with the iPods?? I'm getting really frustrated because i have music on my home computer and 2 other laptops!

    I am unsure on how I interpret the rule wrong, but here is a copy of the actual rule which I made a link to in my previous post.
    Found under, http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/au/terms.html#SERVICE, 10. Purchase or Rental of iTunes Content, Usage Rule (iii).
    "(iii) Your license of Products as authorised hereunder permits you to use the Products on five iTunes-authorised devices at any time, except in the case of Movie Rentals, as described below."
    Also under, http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/au/terms.html#APPS, 9. USE OF PRODUCTS AND THE SERVICE, Usage rule (iii).
    "(iii) You shall be able to store Products on five iTunes-authorized devices at any time."
    When I read this, I understand it that the word Products refers to content on iTunes. But it could possibly interpreted differently.

  • Syncing two phones to one computer

    Without creating two logins for my laptop, how can I sync and backup two different iPhones (iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4) to my iTunes?
    Don't want my contacts (private) to be synced to my wife's.....
    Of course, eventually I am planning to get the MacBook Pro and this will probably resolve the matter.

    Well since a comptuers profile really only has one address book, you can just not sync contacts with one of the phones to avoid mixing them...of course then you risk losing them.
    The right way is to have two logins to your computer as the computer was designed so you each have a profile and your own settings.
    Outside of that, one or both of you can sync Contacts/Calendar with Google instead and that will happen over the air and then you only need iTunes to sync other stuff.

  • Can i sync two iPhones to one iTunes?

    As of above my wife has had an iPhone for just over a month now and is looking to update to IOS 5 as I have. My question is whether when I plug her iPhone in and run the update will all her data be lost and get wiped by my data? We both have different apps, contacts etc and it would be a nightmere for her if this happened. Many thanks, Jack

    When you connected his iphone did you click File>Transfer Purchases?
    This would transfer any ituens purchases from iphone to computer.
    You can sync as many iphones as you like to one computer/account/library.
