This way ITunes will see them as separate phones. You can then go into ITunes and choose the phone you want to use. You can tell it to download all your music with one check box. You can also choose which apps you want on which phone. I am running two IPhones and three IPads this way. Hope this helps.

When you get your new device, simply attach it to your computer. Next, you will choose to set it up as a new phone. Next, you will simply move to the various tabs on the device, from within iTunes and manually select which apps, books, and Playlists/music you want on the new device. As long as each device you attach to iTunes has a different device name, iTunes will keep their respective settings, separate. Managing multiple iOS devices is one of the things that iTunes does best. By the way, it's always a good idea to backup your devices on a regular basis.

Re: WHEN I SET UP MY NEW PHONE
E hi Carol, What I plan to do is to get my old phone exactly how I want it with the folders and apps I want on my new phone. Then I will make an encrypted backup using iTunes. Then, when I get a new phone, I will set that up using the encrypted backup from iTunes. This will not do anything for the music I don't think. But it should give me all of my apps and data that are backed up and keep my folder structure. So I hope anyway.

Re: WHEN I SET UP MY NEW PHONE
Thanks, Mark. I thought that I was safe by changing the name and it's good to have it confirmed. Think I'll try to go that route, though my laptop isn't handling iTunes very well. Incidentally, I noticed a new version today. Is it a case of, "Not broke, don't fix it" or is the latest a good version to get? Carol P - Original Message - From: "M.

When you get your new device, simply attach it to your computer. Next, you will choose to set it up as a new phone. Next, you will simply move to the various tabs on the device, from within iTunes and manually select which apps, books, and Playlists/music you want on the new device. As long as each device you attach to iTunes has a different device name, iTunes will keep their respective settings, separate. Managing multiple iOS devices is one of the things that iTunes does best. By the way, it's always a good idea to backup your devices on a regular basis.

Re: WHEN I SET UP MY NEW PHONE
Hi Carol: Another way to accomplish what you are trying to do is to have a different ICloud account for each phone. This way ITunes will see them as separate phones. You can then go into ITunes and choose the phone you want to use. You can tell it to download all your music with one check box. You can also choose which apps you want on which phone. I am running two IPhones and three IPads this way. Hope this helps.

RE: WHEN I SET UP MY NEW PHONE
Hello Carol, You're in the best place when it comes to setting up a second phone as iTunes on your computer will take care of everything. When you get your new device, simply attach it to your computer. Next, you will choose to set it up as a new phone. Next, you will simply move to the various tabs on the device, from within iTunes and manually select which apps, books, and Playlists/music you want on the new device. As long as each device you attach to iTunes has a different device name, iTunes will keep their respective settings, separate. Managing multiple iOS devices is one of the things that iTunes does best. By the way, it's always a good idea to backup your devices on a regular basis. Mark From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] Sent: Monday, September 14, 2015 3:26 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: WHEN I SET UP MY NEW PHONE Hi all, I just want to make sure I know the best way to set up things when I get my new phone, so please bear with me while I describe what I want to achieve: I have a phone already and this will continue to be used mainly in playing music, already transferred from my iTunes account. (Some of this had been copied from CD's and, although I do have copies elsewhere, I really want to ensure iTunes doesn't demolish my music source. I have lots of apps on my current phone, some of which I will want to transfer or at least have on my new phone and some I will not. In addition, I will want to get all of my music onto the new phone also and this will be the same music that is on the older one. I am thinking of doing this, as follows: First, I'll backup my current phone, if I can, using iTunes. When it comes to the new one, I'd rather set up as a new iPhone, ensure its name is different to the one I've been using, add it to the list of items I use that Apple needs to know about and then download those apps I want directly from the Store? Or is there a better way to achieve this without getting messed up with two different phones, one computer with iTunes and lots of apps to sort? When it comes to copying the music, using iTunes and my rather slow laptop, will I be safe if I've got different names for each of my phones, but they'll share the same account and music? If anyone can offer some pointers to help me to do this without too many hitches, I'd be most grateful. Carol P -- The following information is important for all members of the VIPhone list.
