Hi Jason,

Thanks for the feedback.

He USED to sync his phone to my iMac, (Photo’s iTunes.) but has not done so for 
over a year so I don’t believe he is precious about the backup content on my 
machine, but I suppose that means he does have an iTunes account associated 
with the iMac.

Hope that helps.

Steve.

It depends what 'sync' means. Does he have his own iTunes library on your 
machine? Does he sync photos? (for instance).

It will offer to erase the phone as it's synced with another library. You could 
move the library file to the MacBook Pro but then it would carry its record of 
all your stuff (and give errors for missing music and films).

So best to make a list of what syncs, and whether he has his own iTunes set-up 
(eg a separate user account) so we can advise.
