Chapter 1 Getting Started 11
If you want to watch rented movies on iPhone, transfer them to iPhone using the
Video pane in iTunes.
If there’s not enough room on iPhone for all the media you’ve specified, iTunes asks if
you want to create a special playlist. iTunes creates the playlist for you, and sets it to
sync with iPhone.
Photos Pane
You can sync photos with iPhoto 4.0.3 or later, or Aperture on a Mac; or with Adobe
Photoshop Album 2.0 or later, or Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later on a PC. You
can also sync photos in any folder on your computer that contains images.
Applications Pane
Use the Applications pane to specify which App Store applications you want installed
on iPhone. Any applications downloaded directly to iPhone are automatically backed
up to your iTunes library when you sync. If you manually delete an application on
iPhone, you can reinstall it from this pane as long as it was previously synced.
Preventing Automatic Syncing
You may want to prevent iPhone from syncing automatically when you connect
iPhone to a computer other than the one you usually sync with.
Turn off automatic syncing for iPhone: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes,
select iPhone in the sidebar, then click the Summary tab. Deselect “Automatically sync
when this iPhone is connected.” You can always sync by clicking the Sync button.
Prevent automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods: In iTunes choose iTunes >
Preferences (on a Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a PC), click Devices, and select “Disable
automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods.”
If this checkbox is selected, iPhone won’t sync automatically, even if “Automatically
sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected in the Summary pane.
Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings: Open iTunes. Then,
as you connect iPhone to your computer, press and hold Command-Option (on a Mac)
or Shift-Control (on a PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar.
Sync manually: In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar, then click Sync in the lower-
right corner of the window. Or, if you’ve changed any sync settings, click Apply.
Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts
iPhone works with MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular
email systems.
