Default Itunes9 on 2 pc's?

I have an Ipohone 3g that I usually sync with my desktop pc and I have just purchased a Samsung netbook which I have just installed Itunes on...

I activated my account with I tunes on the netbook and the phone sync'd ok but started removing all my purchased apps!!!

I stopped the sync and am now restoring my phone back on the desktop pc..

Can you sync 1 phone including apps on 2 pc's?

running windows xp on both machines and Itunes 9

thanks

Andy

You can only sync it on one pc unless you have everything thats on ur phone on both pc's as itunes will always tell u when u plug it in that it can only be sync'd with one pc

As above. Backup your itunes library and restore it on the netbook. Then you will be able to sync on both machines. But you will also have to maintain both libraries so they stay the same. Alternatively ditch itunes all together (as this issue alone makes it a pos in my book) and use mediawidget RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting or alike on the netbook.
