So, to finish the question in the hope that this will help others...
I looked on iTunes for videos explaining how to use two iphones on one computer and found a really good one.

After watching it, I chose the option to have a separate user account for my husband. So then, I needed to know how to do that -
And this about having multiple accounts on one Mac and "fast user switching" which is useful when you want to get to the account that the newer iphone is synced to:

You would think that a person who has used Macs for more than 15 years would know these things, but until you need to know, you don't.
