i wonder if anyone can help, i recently bought my son an ipod touch and he uses my computer to transfer music etc. The problem is he also gets the apps i have bought on my iphone when he syncronises and vice versa. how do i prevent this?. is this something to do with 'home sharing'??:(
 
While his iPod Touch is syncing, click on his Touch icon, then on applications tab on top of the frame. Uncheck the apps you don't want to share and the resync (they will be deleted off his Touch).

Why dont you want him to have acess to your apps?


It's not so much not wanting him to have my apps, although why would he want my apps?, sat nav, and anything using a camera would be no use to him anyway???. No, the real irritation is other way around.. ,when his apps on 'fart noises', silly joke type apps,etc.. get copied to my iphone when i sync.

i just thought there would be a way to isolate the 2 devices better even though we share the same computer?
