“I have an iPad and the iPod touch, I don’t want my iPad apps to sync to my iPod touch or my iPod touch apps to sync with my iPad. How do I select which apps can sync with certain devices?”
How to choose which apps to sync for each device such as the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch:
1. Plug in the iPad, iPhone or iPod touch.
2. Click on your device on the left hand side.
3. Select the “Apps” tab.
4. Select which apps you don’t want to sync on the device by clicking on the check mark to un-check it.
5. When you’re finished click “Apply” at the bottom right hand corner.
6. A pop-up warning will appear asking if you’re sure you want to remove the apps, click “Remove” and move on with your life.
7. Now iTunes should automatically “Sync” and remove the unwanted apps.
8. Do the same thing with the other device(s) so the right apps sync up with the correct device.
