Note: if you encounter problems with iTunes trying to erase your iPhone from one of the computers, read our Prevent iTunes from syncing iPhone instructions
As mentioned in a previous post, iTunes only allows one-way synchronizations from Computer to iPhone
Then, if you connect your iPhone to a Computer whose library is different from your iPhone's, you may end up with unwanted song deletions on your iPhone
To prevent this and be able to Synchronize your iPhone with several Computers, you need to transfer data from your iPhone to the Computers where this data is missing
Once all your Computers libraries are complete and synchronized, you can sync your iPhone with any of your Computers without risking to lose songs from your iPhone
Just follow these steps
- Start by synchronizing your iPod / iPhone with iTunes on your first Computer ( the one that is most complete )
- Unplug your iPod / iPhone from that first Computer
- Connect your iPod / iPhone to the second Computer and follow the procedure to Sync iPhone to iTunes and transfer iPhone contents to iTunes onto the second Computer
You are all set !
Now that you know how to synchronize an iPhone with two computers, feel free to do so with as many computers as you want
Notes & possible issues
- This solution works for both Mac and PC
- In case your songs are spread across several computers none of which contains your complete library, set your iPhone to Manual Mode. Then, transfer the songs from every library to your iPhone and finally follow this procedure to populate every Computer with your whole library based on your iPhone

This solution also works to Synchronize iPhone and iPad, two iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone, etc
As seen in a previous post, there's no problem Syncing several iPhones to a single Computer / iTunes
The problem starts when you try to Transfer Music from one iPhone to another
This would be easy if we could just Copy Songs from an iPhone to iTunes and then Synchronize another iPhone with iTunes
But, as explained in our Sync iPhone to iTunes tutorial, iPhone to iTunes transfers are not possible using iTunes
The solution:
First Import Music from iPhone to iTunes with a dedicated software
Then, Synchronize a second iPhone with iTunes, which, at the end equals to Transferring Songs from one iPhone to another
Just follow these steps
- Copy Music from the first iPhone to iTunes
- Then, just Sync the second iPhone with iTunes
Notes & possible issues
- This solution transfers all personal settings between two iPhones: playlists, ratings and so on ( see complete list )
So, that's a very safe way to fully Synchronize two iPhones
