Hello all: I understand how to sink apps between devices and from the pc and back and so on, but now something bother me a bit here, to be more spisific, if I sink apps from another phone or pc wich using the same apple I d, will the data within the app also sink? And will anything that I buy from within an app also sink if I resink that app again to another device using the same apple I d? For example, if I sink Ootunes, will it sink my radio stations to the second device, and if I have an app where I need to upgrade from within the app such as BrailleTouch, or if you have a case where you can buy extra sounds from within apps like nature space, can those sounds be sinked with the actual app to the second device using the same apple I d, or must I then redownload the sounds or create another fayvirit list?

Hi Nano Junky, the key word on your question is "syncing." When you sync any iDevice to a different computer, it will only sync your purchased media or apps to that computer, it will not back up your data. Therefore all your settings or configurations is not going to be saved on that computer. However, You can back up the settings and data any of your iDevices to a different computer by right clicking, or pressing the application key if you are on Windows PC, on your iDevice in the iTunes, and and then press the enter where it says, "Back UP." So here is the tricky part of your question, will you be able to sync and get your setting, configuration and back up from another computer? For your information, iDevices are supposed to be synced only from a single iTunes library because it suppose to mirror that library to your iDevices. So if you sync your iDevice to another or different computer or iTunes library, It will wipe out all the contents on that device and replace it with the library from that iTunes library. Hopefully, I answered your question properly. regards, Musicruz
