Wireless synching of your
iPhone to iTunes
Completely cut the cord between your iPhone and computer
SYNCHING AN IPHONE AND ITUNES USED
to mean that you had to plug your iPhone into
your Mac or PC and either sit and watch the
progress bar or leave it and pop back whenever
you thought it might be ready. Happily, there is
now a better solution to synching your iPhone.
Now you can keep your
iPhone and iTunes account on your PC or
Mac completely in tune wirelessly. No more
hunting around for that
white cable. Never
again will you have to scrabble around under your
desk to try to plug the USB cable into
your computer.
Wireless synching works when both your
iPhone and computer
are connected to the same wireless network
and when your iPhone
is connected to a power source. You’ll
have to keep your computer
on and running iTunes, too. This means you
can leave your iPhone
charging overnight and
wake up to fully synched iPhone and iTunes.
The more content you’ve purchased the
longer it will take, but
wireless sync covers everything:
applications, music, bookmarks,
books, contacts calendars, movies, photos,
notes, documents and
ringtones are all synched wirelessly over
your network.
When your iPhone is connected to a power
source and on the
Wi-Fi network it shows up just as it
would, were it plugged into your
computer through a USB cable. This means
you can change settings
and other options wirelessly, too.
Ironically, you have to plug your iPhone
into your computer to
enable wireless synching but, after that,
it’s all wire-free.
