    Hi guys,

    Myself and my brother have iPhones. He doesn't have a laptop though and he wants to back up his iPhone on mine. Does that mean I can't back up my own then? Or can you back up numerous iPhones to one iTunes?

    Thankssssss :)

    You can backup as many iOS devices as you wish iTunes just be careful as to what to sync as you will loose contacts and apps if you choose the wrong thing. Best way of getting a backup would be performing an update.

    You don't need to update it to back it up just plug it in, right click on the iphone in itunes and select backup

    Each iOS device will be recognized as a different one, and so each will have it's own backup. i.e. no problem at all
