*How to use multiple iPods with one computer*
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iPods using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

  • Can i have two devices sharing one itunes account

    i currently have my iphone synced with my itunes account, i have just bought a ipod and want it to share the same itunes account, library etc, how do i do this without wiping it off my phone when ading the new ipod ??

    This won't be a problem, iTunes will see the new device as a separate device, it will have its own settings under iTunes, you can set it up to sync the same content or different content to the first device, it will have no effect on how the first device syncs with iTunes.

  • When I cllick on my device(ipod) in itunes, i do not get any menu items.  I am trying to sync my ipod.  It says it is synching but doesn't.

    Using Windows 8, recently installed Itunes 11.  Just tried to download a cd and synch it to Ipod and it doesn't work.  I clicked on my device (ipod) in Itunes and didn't get any menu choices.  How do I synch music from itunes to ipod?  Also, music purchased that was on ipod is still on ipod but not on the computer.  How do I get purchased songs on the computer?

    Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
    All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

  • Multiple devices on one itunes

    Updated ipad 2 and reboot will not accept my email as my apple id...said "it is already in use" "use another email account" Only have two other devices using my itunes account and I don't want another email account.  Was working fine with the same email before this update.

    If you are saying that you are trying to use the same Apple ID and iTunes account that you have always used on all devices, then try this ...
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap sign out. Restart your iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>and sign in again and see it that works now.

  • Can i use two devices with one itunes account?

    I share a laptop with my husband.  We have had "sync" issues in the past with his contacts and my contacts intermingling on our separate iPhones.  Can I create two different iTunes accounts for us to sync independently?  What should I do about this?  With the advent of iCloud, we're both going to be autosyncing...right???

    This won't be a problem, iTunes will see the new device as a separate device, it will have its own settings under iTunes, you can set it up to sync the same content or different content to the first device, it will have no effect on how the first device syncs with iTunes.

  • HT4436 we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    You need a unique AppleID for each iCloud account.  So grab some free gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo or whatever email addresses to make five new AppleIDs.  Now, everybody make an iCloud account for themselves, and keep the existing shared AppleID and password just for use in the iTunes and App Stores.  You can also each use your own unique AppleIDs to make iMessage accounts and keep those separate as well.

  • Can my husband and I share purchases on itunes, even if we have different apple ID's? Can we sync each other's devices to our itunes account?

    Can my husband and I share purchases on itunes, even if we have different Apple ID's? Can we sync each other's devices to our itunes accounts? Before we had it so that, he had the itunes account and synced my iphone to it as a named device, but the problem was, when I used to send imessages, it looked like it was from my husband and not me!

    You can set up Messages and Facetime separate from your husband and still use the same iTunes to sync things like music, movies, Apps, etc.
    To do this though, you need to get your own Apple ID. You then use your Apple ID to set up Messages and Facetime under your account. This way your Messages and Facetime calls will come from your account and your husbands from his.
    And you will still be able to sync the devises on the same iTunes account.

  • I have multiple devices and one itunes account can they have separate icoulds?

    I have multiple devices on one itunes acccount, can they have separate icoulds?

    Settings > iCloud > Sign in with the desired Apple ID.
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Sign in with the desired Apple ID.
    The two above can be different Apple IDs, mine are.

  • Transferring files from Multiple Devices to 1 ITunes Account

    I have three Apple devices, an ITouch, an IPhone and an IPad and one ITunes account.
    I'm trying to fill my Itunes library with all my files from each of my devices, the files differ so on one I have a tv series the other two don't have this, then I have albums I've imported from CD's on my IPad but they're not on my computer or other device as I have a new computer.
    Is it possible to transfer all files from each device to my itunes ? If so how ? The only options I can seem to find is to update the Idevices from my Itunes and not the other way around ?

    No problem, it is still much the same advice but you'll need to use third party tools to extract the data.
    See this post from forum regular Zevoneer for some options.
    If there is a chance that you've got some overlap you might want to use my DeDuper script. See this  thread for background.

  • How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

    We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id).  I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices.  Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime.  The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
    Please Help...
    I appreciate the help and support.

    P and V-
    If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
    The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID.  Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy".  That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
    On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping.  If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
    From the Home screen, double click your Home button.  You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle.  You will then see a red minus sign on each.  Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background.  (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

  • HT5649 Our family has a shared computer with itune software. We have multiple apple devices and multiple itunes accounts. Can we share the computer and iTunes software to back up each apple device separately?

    How do multiple users with multiple devices share one computer with iTunes software to back up multiple devices and individual iTune libraries?

    Hi Goodguy147,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The easiest way to have multiple users with multiple devices share a single computer is to create a User Account on your Windows PC for each person.  Each person should also have a unique Apple ID.  That will keep each individual's iTunes Library separate from the others and each individual can associate and backup several devices to their iTunes library.

    The article below is a troubleshooting article for Windows.  I'm just quoting the section from it that explains how to create user accounts:

    Follow the steps below to create a new user account in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    Choose Start > Control Panel.
    Open "Add or remove user accounts." (If you're using the Classic view in Windows Vista, open "User Accounts," and then open "Manage another account.")
    Select "Create a new account" and follow the instructions to set up the account.
    Once you create the new account, choose     Start > Log Off.
    Log in to the new user account.

  • How can I have 2 devices on one iTunes?

    How can i have 2 devices on one iTunes so that they share the same music but have different apps? Is there a way to do that?

    Each can sync with the same playlists, or different ones, and can have different apps...
    Uncheck the Automatically sync new apps box on the Apps tab after connecting each device and before syncing. Once this box has been unchecked each device should remember the setting and only sync the apps that have already been selected for it, plus any you then decide to manually add to the list or purchase on each respective device.

  • Multiple devices/Apple IDs & iTunes

    I have iTunes on our PC, then we have 5 various iPods, 2 iPhones and an iPad - currently all with the same Apple ID. Can I give each device or each family member their own Apple ID, but all still use our iTunes library? Thanks

    No.  Devices accessing your iTunes Match library will need to sign in with the ID the subscription is tied to.  Also, if other devices have already downloaded previously purchased media, or enabled automatic downloades, using a different Apple ID there is up to a 90-day wait period before they will be able to sign into the iTunes Match library (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 for details on this).
