IPhone :: Sync Contacts With Multiple Computers?
Mar 16, 2012
Ok i'm been reading up on syncing to multiple computers (through google and apple support) and it seems slpit on it can and can't be done... I got 2 computers, my main desktop which I use to sync everything and my laptop that i would like to sync only contacts (maybe calendar too). How can I go about doing this?
Is there a way to send a gaint vcard to my laptop's outlook to "sync" my contacts, something over bluetooth, or can I use itunes?This is the setting I'm looking to have
Desktop Sync:
- Contacts
- Calendar
- Videos
- Ringtones
- Apps
-- iphone backups
Laptop Sync:
- Contacts
- Calendar
(if you're wondering where my music is, that is on my itouch).
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

I've been able to sync my iPhone with multiple computers previous to iTunes 10 using the following method (HexEdit, iTunes Library.xml)

As of iTunes 10, I believe this method is broken. Does anyone have any new method of fixing this?

I am always using manually manage my videos and mp3 s 5.0.1 ipad with many computer.just bought an iphone with 5.1.1, and i realize this function HT1202 manually manage now was disabled for many computers/itunes management. Every time it manually manage checked on default computer [home] and the iphone plugged into another computer the manually manage not checked.If i checked at those other computer , it will erase and sync.This not happen on 5.0.1 ipad, it still checked at other computers, so i can drag and drop as i want. The itunes said now only able to manually manage only 1 iphone (5.1.1) library/itunes/computer only.

[url] have tried to follow this guide so my iPhone is manually managed music-wise across multiple computers. I set it to that on Mac 1, manually added some music. No problem.Then plug it into Mac 2. iTunes reports the iPhone 'manual manage' checkbox is unticked. If I try to tick it, it prompts me to erase the iPhone and sync with the Mac 2 iTunes.Any tips for why Apple's guide isn't working?

When I press manually manage music and videos it tells me that I can only select this option if I wipe my iPhone and sync it with the second computers iTunes because it can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. I have music on my laptop I want to put on my phone without wiping it!

I have contact list with records for a lot of people (300+), each with several phone numbers each, home, mobile & work, etc, .I can't seem to find a way to have the iPhone announce the name & number or name & type (home,mobile,work) of the caller from the contact list, my old cell phone could do that easily.
At the moment what I've been doing as a work around for a few (important) people is to create a custom ringtone for that caller & that phone number. Since it also seems there's no way to attach a different ringtones to each number in a single contact record I've had to create multiple contact records for each person, each with a different name/number combination such as "John Doe Work", "John Doe Home" or John Doe Mobile" then assign to it the custom ringtone I created for that name/number.
I need to this so that if I receive a call while I'm driving (or whatever) that I can't answer right then for some reason (often happens), the ringtone I created for that name & number helpfully lets me know who & where their calling from. It's very important to know where someone is calling from, if someone's calling from home then I know I've got some time, but if their calling from work then I need to get back to them quickly.
having to make multiple contacts & ringtones for a every person with multiple numbers is a extraordinary waste of time. My old cell phone could do this with no problem but there doesn't seem to be any way to do this with my new iphone.

Using Contacts to enter birthdates/anniversaries - I store some of my contacts as couples/families (contact numbers are the same) (eg Mary & Terry in notes children Peter (birthdate) Anne (birthdate). How can I show these birthdates, anniversary. I know I can enter one birthdate and one anniversary but is it possible somehow to enter more than one and have it labelled (e.g. Mary birthday, Terry birthday, Peter etc) and then show up on the calendar.
