Question

What is the difference between SPList.ContentTypesEnabled and SPList.AllowContentTypes?

Answer 1

SPList.ContentTypesEnabled

Gets or sets a Boolean value specifying whether content types are enabled for the list.

AllowContentTypes

Returns true if the list supports content types.

The first one can be used to get and set while the second one lets you know wether the list supports content types or not so that you can set the first one accordingly to enable content types.
