That’s quite handy: The 50 gigabytes of media on your PC wouldn’t all fit on that 8GB iPhone. It’s your choice, though, whether you want it to download the entire song, video, etc., or just display the name with the option to download. With iCloud, whatever you buy on any device-mobile, Mac, or PC-shows up on all the others. You can regularly sync them all through iTunes over a cable, but that's about as likely as you making it to the gym three times a week. Any device can download music, videos and now eBooks, which means you can have different collections on each device. Keeping media up to date began as a headache with the original iPod and grew into a nightmare with the addition of iPhones and iPads. Likewise, you can purchase apps on your computer and watch them appear on the mobile devices that have auto downloads enabled. Whether or not an app is pushed to other iDevices, it will also download to iTunes on your Mac or PC. The one exception: An app designed only for iPad won’t also download to an iPhone or iPod, and vice versa. If you enable automatic downloads for apps in the Store menu (under Settings for iOS 5), an app installed on any iDevice-say an iPhone-also installs on any other device, such as an iPad or iPod. This part of iCloud is wonderfully simple.
