I am setting up an iPad for my wife...

...and would like to share our libraries of music and apps, but we will be syncinc to different PC's that are not on a shared network. Her PC is at home and mine is at work. What is the best/easiest way to accomplish this?

OK, so I think I got it. Purchase and dowload as we wish individually and by turning on the auto download option we can have all music and apps on each iPad becasue we share the same AppleID. This seems to work on and off currently between my iPad and iPhone, so hopefully it continues and/or improves.

Thank you.

That's it you got it - in spite of me ... and Philly! 😁

And remember that you can always download your purchased content again as well as long as you use the same ID.

Maybe we are just getting too old for this .... 😁

I think Brian has the hang of it now and he will be just fine.
