Right, I have an iphone 5 all lovely and synced up to my itunes account, syncs automatically etc, no problems.
My son has just been given his uncles old iphone 3gs without a sim card so it can be used for music and apps..basically its now like an itouch.
He is eventually going to want to get some more apps,music etc
So whats going to happen when I plug it into my laptop?
Now I know one option is to have a separate windows account with a separate itunes and apple id, however I do not want to have to buy everything twice.
Ideally I would need it to be on my itunes and manually sync some of my stuff to his phone, but not all, its there an easy way to do this.
His phone still has some apps and music left on there by his uncle, would it be easier to wipe it clean before syncing? as they were bought with his ID.
Im very very cautious wth this sort of thing....terrified of losing all my stuff or something!
I dont really use icloud(dont really understand it), its on with a few things switched to on, but my icloud backup is off, I think this was because when I turned it on it said not enough space, so never bothered with it.does this affect the 2nd device at all?
