2 Ipod with different Itunes accounts...can't get music from other ipod

I tried finding a similar thread but no luck....
My boyfriend has an Ipod and an Itunes account w/his old computer, which he no longer has. I have an Ipod shuffle that I have an Itunes account on my own pc. Whenever I plug in his Ipod to my pc to read/upload music it says his ipod is already linked to another Itunes account. If I chose to sync his ipod he will lose all his music? Is this true? Also whenever I plug in his ipod it recognizes it but does not show any of his music? Is this normal? I just want to be able to access his music on my pc?? Any advice will help?

There is a chance everything will go. If nothing is seen from his iPod on your iTunes then I don't believe anything is on it anyway. Usually you can still see the files, but are unable to play them.

    If you did not configure FindmyIPod on it, I'm afraid you are out of luck.  Report the theft to the local authorities and change the passwords to any and all accounts you have may used/accessed or configured on the iPod Touch.

  • We have two ipads and two different itunes accounts, can I sync my wife's apps and she mine?

    we have two ipads and two different itunes accounts. can I sync my wife's apps and she mine?

    Yes, you can use the apps from both accounts on the same iPad. You will both need to authorize each others iTunes account for use in each others computer account. You may authorize up to five Macs/PCs to use stuff from your account and that computer can then transfer the stuff to up to 10 iOS devices.
    Open iTunes in your account and have your wife sign into her iTunes account in the iTunes app. First authorize your computer account to use her iTunes stuff from the iTunes Store menu. Then have your wife download all of the iOS apps that you want to use into iTunes. Now you do the same in her computer account.
    Remember that only you can update apps acquired with your iTunes account and vice versa. So you will need to either sign into iTunes on the computer or directly on each others iPad to update any apps that need it. It is a little confusing at first, but you get the hang of it quickly.

  • I deleted the playlists on my iPhone and when I now try to synchronize with my iTunes account to put the music back, nothing happens and I do not get the music back on my iPhone. Anyone who knows why that could be? Grateful for any suggestions!

    I deleted the playlists on my iPhone and when I now try to synchronize with my iTunes account to put the music back, nothing happens and I do not get the music back on my iPhone. Anyone who knows why that could be? Grateful for any suggestions!

    I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question.  Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing.  I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
    My playlists "ARE"  in my iphone 4s.  They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer. 
    When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes.  I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes:  Music, Movies, TV shows, books.  That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS"  but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone.  Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
    Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this.  I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

  • How can I get music from old mac to new mac?

    How can I get music from old mac to new mac please?
    Can't seem to make Migration Assistant work. Doesn't ask about or transfer files.

    I just migrated into a new MBP from an old one.
    It did not bring the music over.  Apple's instructions are to use the Home Sharing feature of iTunes.
    Open iTunes on your old Mac.  Select Home Sharing under the Advanced menu.  Sign in.  Do the same on your new computer.  Then when the library appears under Home Sharing on the left-hand panel on your new computer's iTunes, you can select all and Add To Library.
    That's what Apple says, anyway.

  • HT1296 how do you transfer music from one ipod to another with different itunes accounts?

    I have a friend who has a first generation ipod that was synced with another itunes account.  He no longer has access to it and forgot login and password.  I bought him another ipod touch 4th generation.  I opened up a new itunes account for him.  He has 470 songs on the old ipod that we want to put on the new ipod touch.  How do we do it with two different itunes.  We wish to use the new account.  Thanks for any help

    Copy the music for the old iPod to his computer by:

    Then sync the new iPod to that computer.

  • Using multiple devices in iTunes, each with different iTunes accounts

    My husband and I are trying to go from 2 computers to 1 in the house, but cannot figure out how we can run iTunes on one computer, with multiple iTunes accounts and NOT download each others apps, music etc automatically. My son also has an ipod which I want to have as a separate account.
    We still want to be able to share some of the downloads amongst each other - but selectively, and not have them automatically downloaded as they would if there were all on the one library / account.
    From what I can see on the online forums I can create a new library for each device to stop the automatic transfer of purchases, but then cannot find how we can select what we do and dont want to share amongst each other, or if this is even possible with multiple libraries.
    Is there a way that I can do all of the following:
    Have multiple devices on 1 computer in iTunes
    Each device has its own iTunes account
    Each device retains its own library
    Each device can select what purchases we want to share amongst the devices, without it automatically transferring onto each device?
    Many thanks!

  • If I have an ipod touch and an itunes account, can i get a shuffle and transfer songs i have onto it?

    If I have a Mac computer and have an itunes account, can I download songs onto an iPod shuffle if I already have an iPod touch?  If so, how do I do that?  I'd like to get an iPod shuffle for when I work out.  Thanks for your help!

    Yes.
    Connect the shuffle to your Mac, launch iTunes.
    From the iTunes menu bar click File > Sync iPod
    If the music stored on the iPod touch you will need to transfer iTunes purchases to the Mac first then sync the shuffle.

    If my husband and I both have iphone 5's with seperate icloud accounts can we track each other using find my iphone?

    Sure,  all you need is Find My iPhone app.  When using it, just sign in using your husband's ID, not yours.  You'll be able to track his device.   I do that with my wife when she's on a long trip.

    How can i get music on my ipod nano to my iphone 4s?

    iPods (except iPod touch which is really an iPhone minus the phone) only sync with your computer running iTunes.  So it needs to go through the computer.
    Since you loaded the iPod from your computer's iTunes library, you can just load the same songs from your iTunes library to the iPad.
