[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1602606, member: 46727"] OK, I just wanted to make sure that there were not two Macs involved which would complicate things further. You can prevent your husband's iPhone and iPad from syncing to your Mac by having him go to "settings" on both his iPhone and iPad. Tap "iCloud" on both devices and then move the sliders for "email" and "contacts" to off. He can do the same with any other items that he does not wish to sync with your Mac. He should, however, continue to back up both his iPhone and iPad on your Mac as well as to iCloud to prevent any loss of data. Also make sure he's using "Find my iPhone" and that you have that setup on your Mac. Same goes for the iPad. [/QUOTE]
