    There is no "adding" a device.  Simply plug the iDevice into the computer.  iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
    iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit.

    Apple will only exchange the iPod for a refurbished one for:

  • HT4743 I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3). How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?

    I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3).
    How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?
    I want a refund, but I can't even figure out how to request one through support. Super frustrated and long time Apple customer.

    After a day of trying, both iTunes and my Apple TV are telling me that the episodes of Scooby Doo I purchased are incompatible due to QuickTime. I still don't understand how I purchased something from iTunes that doesn't work with iTunes.
    the exact error I receive when I try to play an episode is the following:
    "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
    Any advice would be great!

    How can i play my avi formatted movies with the new mac OSX 10.9.2 update?

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

  • HT1386 How can I sync itunes songs onto my iphone? Using ios 6.1.3 and itunes 11.0.4.4

    When I connect my iphone to itunes (USB) I am prompted to set up new iphone, or restore from back-up. I've already restored from back-up. I can't sync or manage my iphone with itunes now.
    Background info: I have recently been forced to update the operating system on my iphone - the contact, pictures and most apps restored just fine. But I cannot copy the music back onto my iphone. When I plug in the phone to sync with itunes I am now prompted to set up a new phone or restore from back up. I have already restored from back up and don't need these options any more.
    The syncing instructions I read show screen shots of itunes that I can no longer get to. Any syncing options I can find are greyed out and unusable.
    How can I place music onto my iphone?

    I appreciate your comment however, I sold my iPhone 4 and therefore cannot see how it synched before. What I do know is that I was not using the iCloud with the iPhone 4 and when Ireceived the iPhone 5 in the mail, I took it to the local Apple Store for some user education... The person in the store set this up.
    I have been an iphone user since the first phone was selling. I love the product and this issue is troublesome to me.
    I do wish that this problem would have been brought to my attention prior to purchasing. I waited weeks for delivery of the phone and thought I was advancing into the the future, not reversing in time.
    Looks like I have to re-create about 300 notes by hand!  UGH!

  • My Wife and Ishare the same iMac, as different users, with separate iTunes accounts. How can I share some of my playlists with her iPod?

    When I go to sync her ipod to my account, Itunes wants to remove all her tunes, before it will install the ones she wants from mine. She wants to keep what she already has on it. How can we do this?

    Hello durantophone,
    This can be done by putting the iPod into 'manual mode.' You'll want to enable this with the iPod connected while in her account.
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers

  • My ipod touch 4th gen sometimes is unable to locate my nike  sensor.  works fine with an ipod nano.

    i got an ipod touch for christmas after using an ipod nano with my nike+ sensor.  after a month or so, the ipod touch was unable to locate my sensor after i pause during my workout.  since the sensor was a little old, i got a new one and it worked for about 2 weeks, then i had the same problem.  tried using my ipod nano and it has no trouble locating the sensor.  what is wrong with the ipod touch?

    the first time, settings>nike+ was grayed out and i couldn't turn off the nike+ button.  had to reboot to recover the nike+.  yesterday and today, bluetooth and nike+ are active in settings, however, the sensor can't be located. 
    i'd rather not reset everytime this happens.  do you think the bluetooth is defective?

  • My daughters ipod only plays out of one side on her headphones.  Is there a problem with the ipod?

    My daughters ipod only plays out of one side on her headphones.  I've tried other headphones.  Is there a problem with her ipod?

    First make sure the headphones are plugged in all the way in (it takes a bit of force to get the solid click sound) and sound balance is set in the middle. Second, test the headphones on another device to see if they operate correctly and test the iPod with the original Apple earphones that came with the iPod to see if it works correctly. Lastly, if you are using third-party headphones, make sure that their plug is iPod compatible.

  • 1st question: Can't Sync iPod touch 5th gen to another laptop, How do I sync it without loosing all of my music and info? 2nd question: How do I transfer a single onto the full album?

    I have two questions:
    1. When I first got an iPod touch (4th gen) I synced it (to start it up) on my mom's Mac Laptop. I finally got my own laptop and tryed to sync my music and info from my iPod to my ASUS laptop, but it said that the only way to do that was to clear all of my info. (I kinda forgot what it said my options were) but I am not sure what to do now. I want all of my stuff from my iPod on my laptop, but I don't want it to delete all of my stuff. Do I need to use a hard drive? Or download it another way other than syncing it?
    My second question was:
    2. I downloaded a single from iTunes before, but I ended up getting the full album later (CD) and downloaded it to my computer. Now I have two albums. One of them is just the single. And the other one is the whole album (other than the single). I want to put them together onto 1 album but I am not sure how to. How to I transfer the single onto the alum?
    Thank you

    - For the album, right click on the songs and click on Get Info. Go to the Info tab. Change the track or disk number of the one song so it fits in with that of the other songs.

  • My iPod Touch 2nd gen keeps freezing up, how can I fix this? It will freeze for like a minute, then it goes back to normal, then in a few minutes it does it again.

    Question says it all.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    CAUTION
    Before you restore the iPod make sure that your iTunes library has the version of apps that are presently installed on your iPod. Many apps have been update and the update apps are not compatible with the 2G iPod. I would do that by deleting the apps from your iTunes library and then transfer them to iTunes. See:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
