iPhone and iPod iTunes help?

[Diana B]

" wondering if I need another account for my iPhone or do I use the same one?"

My daughter and I share an iTunes account. She used it for her first iPod Touch, her iPhone and my iPod.

"but only want to put a selection of music and the best games and apps on my iPhone to ensure it doesn't use all the memory, is this possible?"

I don't see why not. Just enable manual management of music and video - that will allow you to drag and drop single songs or batches of highlighted songs to your iPod. I;ve been doing it that way for years and I avoid all the problems of syncing complained of in thousands of questions here. MM works on any range of iPods and related devices, including Nanos, iPhones and iPads as well as the iPod Touch.

With apps, I just drag and drop the Apps from my app library onto the iPod tab on sidebar. You can bring sidebar up (if you don't see it) using ctrl s.
