How can I sync multiple iDevices on one computer?

Chris asks:

So here’s my problem: we have two iPhones & iPads. For some reason whenever we try to sync them, it’s not keeping the devices separate. It’s extremely frustrating. We’ve set up different names for the devices, but the minute we plug it in, it automatically starts syncing to the wrong darned device. Help!

How to connect two iPhones to a PC and not get mixed in syncing contacts, games, application etc…

When the iPhone/ipad is plugged into the computer there will be a menu in iTunes with setting for that specific iPhone/ipad whether it be you or another member. At the top if the menu it will have tabs for music/apps/videos/pictures/…. And under those tabs you will be able to choose which playlists/apps/…. Are synced to that specific iPhone/ipad. Then at the main page of the menu click apply and sync and only the playlists/apps/…. you selected will go onto that specific iPhone/ipad
