Can I use 2 different Nano's on the one computer Itunes?

Both my children received Nano's for Christmas & both have different tastes in music.
I know you can manually update each of them but can I have 2 Libraries or do the songs all have to be in the same one?
Do I have them all together & open a seperate playlist for each & use those songs to update?
Any help would be greatfully appreciated to make my life easier.
Cheers,

    can i use two icloud accounts on the same computer?

    You can have content from two iTunes Store accounts in one library, and multiple libraries on a computer.

  • Can i use ipod nano and mini on same computer?

    we have an ipod nano. works great. daughter is trying to use an ipod mini and we get a message that itunes cannot communicate with device and that we need to reinstall itunes. Is there a compatibility problem here? Can we use a nano and a mini on the same computer?
    THANKS!

    You may need to update iTunes to work with the second generation nano; updating iTunes will not erase anything from your library, and it will continue to work with the iPod mini.

  • Can you use two iPod's on the same computer?

    I currently have an iPod Video, and my mother wants to get a shuffle or nano. The problem is, we only have one computer that will let iTunes run. Is it possible to use two iPods on the same computer, or even with the same iTunes?

    See these articles about using more than one iPod on one computer, and with either one or more iTunes libraries.
    Multiple iPod installations.
    How to use multiple iPods with one computer.
    If you have the latest iTunes, an easy way to create a new library is to hold down the 'alt' key whilst opening iTunes (for Macs), or hold down the 'shift' key (for Windows).
    This will give you the option of either using the current iTunes library or creating a new one.
    There are various methods of transferring different songs to different iPods with a single iTunes library.
    One is to manage the songs manually.
    With this setting, you can drag and drop songs/playlists etc onto the iPod from iTunes, and also delete and/or edit songs which are currently on the iPod without affecting the iTunes library.
    If you wish to keep the convenience of automatic sync, then you could set the iPods to sync with "selected playlists". This setting can be found in the iPod summary screen under the 'music' tab. With this setting, different playlists can be transferred and later deleted from each iPod without affecting any playlists stored in iTunes or the playlists on the other iPods.
    Also, on the 'summary' main page you will see the option to "only sync checked items". With this setting selected, if you remove the check marks from any songs in iTunes, they will not be transferred to the iPod. You can restore the check mark if you want to put the songs back on the iPod at a later date.
    Be aware that when playing songs in iTunes, any songs that do not have a check mark against them will be skipped over and will not be played.

  • Can I use my nano to add missing songs to iTunes?

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro, and I've been trying to transfer my iTunes library from my old PC to my new Mac. I was having a lot of trouble with it, so I got in touch with Apple Support, who were very helpful, but nothing worked. In the process, any songs in my iTunes library that I hadn't downloaded from the iTunes store went missing. I haven't been able to find them, and neither could Apple Support. I still have everything on my iPod nano. Can I use that to add the missing songs to my iTunes library on my Mac?

    Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder. You would have to try really, really hard for this method not to work.
    If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • Can't use two i-pods on the same computer

    I recently bought a new Gateway with Windows Vista after my first computer completely died. I hooked up my i-Pod, authorized the new computer but had to back up using my back up CDs. However, all went well.
    I thought I would be able to do the same thing when I hooked my Dad's i-Pod up. Instead my songs show up in the library when his i-Pod is hooked up. His songs show up in the music folder that appears directly under devices, with his i-Pod clearly listed as the device.
    I tried hooking up his i-Pod under a different account and the same thing happens. I-Tunes won't let me backup his music.
    Any clues about how to get out of this mess?

    Yes. Each iPod maintains its own preferences:

  • Can i use my ipod with more than one computer?

    i synched my ipod with one computer, hooked it up to another and it says i can't sync with more than one library? it says i have to restore it but i dont want to delete my music off of my ipod, i just want to add the music from this other library

    I have two different iPods and two computers. I regularly use either iPod on either computer.
    First set the preferences so itunes will not automatically sync when ipod is connected.
    Then connect the ipod and set itunes to manually manage music.
    Drag and drop whatever content you want to the device showing on the left.
    If this was the default setup, there wouldn't be all these posts about people losing all their music when they connect their ipod.

  • HT201250 Can I use Time Machine on more than one computer?

    I have a new Mac Air and would like to back up to my existing Time Machine which I also use for my older Macbook. Can I use back up both on time machine?
    thanks

    General rule of thumb is you need a drive about 2-4 times the size of the total amount of data being backed up. See #1.
    Time Machine FAQ
    I backup 2 computers to the same drive and have never had any problems.

  • Can i use my ipod on more than one computer?

    ok i have my comuter at home and then a computer at work.
    and basically i want to use them both to update my computer but ive heard you can only use it on one computer because if you install it onto another one it clears the hard drive?
    so can i have it on two computer?
    many thanks

    hi reko!
    i am at work now and have just downloaded itunes, and have my cable with me now, and i am wondering if i plug it in right now will it erase my ipod? because i haven been home to set it to "manual"?
    good question.
    if it asks you if you want to associate your ipod with the library on the work computer, say "NO!" (if you do associate it while you're on auto it will replace everything in the ipod with the contents of the work itunes.)
    if it then shows up in the sourcelist of the itunes at work, try switching it to manual on that PC.
    if no joy though, it would probably be best to head back home and switch it manual from there.
    love, b

  • Can I use an app on more than one computer?

    if I buy an app for my mac, can I use it on my powerbook?

    Not if you download it from the Mac App Store. The Mac App Store requires Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later which will not run on a PowerBook. If there is an application that also has a version that will work with the older OS on your PowerBook, they likely would have no way of knowing that you bought it from the Store and you would have to pay again.

    Yes, iTunes can tell the difference between iPods so you can use more than one with a single iTunes library if you want...

  • Can I use two adobe bundle(version) in one computer?

    It is possible to install two adobe version in one computer. Lets say cs3 and cs5 working in one mac.
    Please help me...

    Broadly, the answer is yes.
    However, you must bear in mind the issue of compatibility between MacOS and the various versions of the Adobe products.
    Both versions of CS you propose to use must be compatible with the current version of MacOS you have installed. I use CS4 and CS5 on MacOS 10.6.6 without any problems, but an older version such as CS3 run with CS5 may be stretching things a bit in that respect. Others may have specific experience and may be able to say one way or another.
    If you do have two versions running, you need to set your choice of which version opens if you double-click a file. The default is usually the latest version. Alternatively, you could drag and drop each file onto the icon of the version you want to use.

  • How to use different video formats in the one timeline?

    Hi everyone,
    So I am in the middle of stringing together a rough cut for a surf flick/documentary shot in some remote Indonesian islands…
    Things so far are going well, but I am slightly confused regarding the best way to tackle a slight issue (hopefully slight!) of video format compatibility.
    The main shooting for the film was done with .mov video format and this has been imported/captured into final cut pro 7 using the correct settings, which has now formed the basis for my rough cut.
    However, I did a lot of filming with some other cameras (underwater, POV etc) and so also have some crucial footage in different formats that to my knowledge will not be compatible with the timeline that I have already created in FCP.
    The files are as following:
    AVI
    MOD
    MP4
    I am assuming the best way to go about things is convert all these different files into a compatible form that I can then drop straight into my existing timeline.
    Unfortunately, I am just beginning to learn the more techy aspects of editing and I don’t have the first idea of how to go about doing this…?
    Any helpful feedback would be greatly appreciated…
    Thanks in advance,
    m

    Although there are kinds of standard workflows for best quality in final product, it helps to know a bit more about your setup... what is your primary format? Without knowing that, the best way forward is to convert all of your footage to Apple ProRes. Especially the MP4 stuff. There are different ways about doing that, but I personally recommend Compressor. This can take some time depending on the amount and lengths of your shots, but it is well worth the process.
    Make sure you choose 48k / 16bit AIF for all of your shots that have audio. If some of your footage is 1080p and some is 720p, I personally leave that alone because when you have this type of a difference in footage, I like to set my sequence to 720p giving me the option to move or pan the 1080p clips inside of the 720p sequence. Final Cut Pro is very good at handling that difference.
    Hope the edit goes well; sounds like a nice project!

  • Can't Use Any Other Skins - Only the Ones That Came with DW

    Hello Everyone,
    I am a little frustrated, as I would think some of you may be.
    I love Dreamweaver, but here's the problem I'm dealing with right now:
    I am inserting videos in some webpages, and DW does a good and quick job of it right out of the box... if you use the Supplied Skins.
    I have made some custom skins and it would be fantastic if DW would let me use them.
    I put them in the folder with the included skins, and I can choose them from the skin selector dialog box, But they don't work in Live View, or when loaded into a browser.
    It's not just my custom skins either, I tried using the skins that came with Flash CS4, both AS2 & AS3 with the same results.
    Any Ideas??
    Thank you in advance, your support is much appreciated!
