Itune questions
SO I got an itune questions
Since you can add up to 5 different devices to a single itune account (iphones, ipads....). Is it possible say use my itune account to install the software I purchase on another iphone (my friends iphone) and then after the software is install have to login to her own itune account on her phone. Will doing this cause all the software install on her phone disappear?
So I guess what I am trying to do is
Use person A itune account to install software on person B iphone
After software is install have person b sign in to her own itune account on the phone.

Yes it is possible, this is a long standing loop hole in the App Store system.
On phone B go to Settings \ iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID and then Logout... Next login as account A and then go to the App Store and select Purchases, install the apps your want. Then go back to settings and sign out as account A and sign in as account B.

i highly suggest you do this via the iphone or ipad and not go through with it on itune. the risk of itune messing up syncing your device and/or your friends device is pretty high.

^ ditto... Dont try to sync through the iTunes software on your computer. Doing so will wip all apps and music from your friends phone.
Follow my instructions done 100% on the device and you wont have a problem. Happy app sharing!

I'm sure you can add more then 5 devices to your itunes account. I have 11 different devices all using the same account (iphones, ipod touch, ipod nano, apple tv, ipad). What you're thinking of is that itunes account can be used on 5 different computers.
Yes you can log into another itunes account on the device and install the app but once you sync the phone on a computer, it will delete all apps that is not registered to the logged in itunes account on the computer.
