Adding a second Nano

My son has had a Nano for six months. Now I just got one and am trying to set it up for use. When I insert the CD software I get a message that states, "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel." I really don't understand what it is that I am supposed to configure, add, or remove. Can someone help me? Thank you in advance.

no problem! glad you're up and running now.

  • I have tried to add a second nano to my computer

    Hi,
    I've just bought a second nano, and when I plugged it in using my existing usb cable from my previous nano, itunes did not recognise it.
    Windows found it displaying a message “new device found” and I think it is now trying to format it with some software? The message on the Ipod says Do Not Disconnect but it’s was like it for hours with nothing happening on my computer, I eventually unplugged it. I have now established that I should have ejected it first, but then when I plug it in now, I think it is still trying to load something to it, and now when I unplug it my computer says writing to Drive I: failed, data may have been lost. I have tried going through the My computer and ejecting it from Drive I: but it still says Do Not Disconnect.
    I have carried out the tutorials on disconnecting and resetting and when it is not plugged in the Apple logo appears and then comes up with the choice of Language, but then if I plug it back in it just says Do Not Disconnect, last night I left it for three hours and came back and it still said Do Not Disconnect.
    Can someone please help me?
    Many thanks in anticipation.

    Hi,
    I tried adding a nano to my existing mini. I ran the program and it automatically downloaded my library from the mini to the new nano. OK.
    The next time I got on it erased everything on the nano and my complete library is gone geez. The mini has all the songs on it but Im afraid to reconnet. I was on with apple and we couldnt fine the missing library. As long as it says do not disconnect your safe it wont erase anything. Just shut down the pc first then its ok to disconnect. Thats as far as Ive gotton so far.

  • I can't get my ICloud started. Each time i try to sign in..it indicates that theres a problem with my email apple address but never indicates what. I added a second email but the same result. Have changed my password numerous times...no result?????

    I have followed the instruction relating to Icloud connection.When i went to system preferences, my Apple address is continually rejected. I have added a second email as suggusted by an Apple site but i still get the same message. Im not told why the Apple ID/email is not accepted when it is accepted in all other Apple sites. I changed my password numerous times to ensure it wasnt the password but to no result. It continued to state that my Apple ID was the problem. I live in Malta,Europe. Have new Apple Mac Pro and Ipod. The annoying thing is that ICloud continually send me the problem notice but do nothing to tell me how to fix it? Can i switch this notice off? Help???????

    Welcome to the Apple community Yao.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • Adding a second time capsule?

    I've reviewed some of he discussion on adding a second Time Machine but two issues arise.  The information relates to older Time Machine software and leads to confusion.
    I have an Airport Extreme with S/W version 7.6.4 and would like to add a newer Airport Extreme to back up the older one.  Reading the suggestions on adding a new TC didn't cover the newer Time Machines and I could find Apple's instructions for doing it.
    Somewhere I read that the new TC could be connected to the old TC but forgot the port setup.  Also, newer instructions for adding a second TC so both the old and the new acquire the same data could not be found.
    Hope This question is clear.  Is there help on this?

    The network setup is fairly trivial.
    Plug TC2 into TC1. (the hardware is Time Capsule.. TC as per your title.. or is it Airport Extreme as per your question..?? Time Machine is software on your computer.. and totally unrelated to the hardware.)
    Makes no difference which way around you do it. Plug WAN of the 2nd device into LAN of the 1st device. And setup the 2nd device in bridge.. wireless is up to you.. off or on?? Roaming or not??
    As far as backup is concerned.. you need to be clear in the question. And sorry it is a bit mixed up now.
    But I can tell you what you cannot do.
    You cannot backup to both units at once. You can however setup Time Machine in the computer to backup sequentially to both.
    See Q34 http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
    The TC itself cannot backup to another TC.
    (extreme with hard disk amounts to the same thing.. with caveats)
    You can backup one TC to another manually via a computer.. it is slow and I do not recommend it.. if a fault creeps into backup1, you are simply copying said fault to backup2.. AND it is poor for another reason.. Time Machine cannot do it.. you will need another utility eg Carbon Copy Cloner.. and even then you will probably end up backing up a huge amount of data every time.. since TM works so strangely you cannot just backup differences.

  • I am considering a Apple iMac but would be interested in adding a second monitor. Does it have to be an Apple monitor or can i add any monitor with a thunderbolt cable and DVI or vGA adapter?

    I am considering a Apple iMac but would be interested in adding a second monitor. Does it have to be an Apple monitor or can i add any monitor with a thunderbolt cable and DVI or vGA adapter?

    I found that the Thunderbolt input accepts the mini-DVI (in my case converter to VGA for a tutorial use monitor)
    BUT, you have to really oush it in 'til it clicks.  I thought it too loose until I tried it.  works just fine!!
    i get a solved for my own  LOL

  • Adding a second internal HDD on a Satellite A350-20s

    I have a Satellite A350-20s.
    It is described in its documentation as having the option to add a second internal 2"5 hdd, and a indeed there is a place reserved for it..
    The problem is that when I remove the cover to insert the hdd there is no connector.
    So, how to do it ?

    Hi buddy,
    Well, I have even checked the manual of my Satellite A350 and there you can see that the manual shows second HDD slot. But as Paolo30 wrote installing such a HDD is depending on the HDD controller You can only install such a HDD if you have a second HDD connector.
    In my opinion all its ok because the manual doesnt mention that adding a second HDD is possible on every notebook. ;)
    By the way: If you need more disk space you can use an external HDD, for example 2.5 one. Such HDDs dont need an additional power supply, you need only an USB cable to connect it. ;)

  • How to change security questions after adding a second email address?

    I'm at a loss and really really frustrated with Apple for the first time in my life.
    I've added a second email address and tried over the last 3 days on my iPad and Mac to change my security questions. There is no option present that I can see that allows you to do this without first entering the answers. (to which I don't know anymore)
    I called Apple support (even in english) and every time the call has been dropped.
    In all the years since switching to Apple I've always been impressed with the level of customer service. This is the first time that I've felt this level of sincere frustration.
    I'm not sure why I have to book a time to speak with someone. Updating or changing security questions, should be a process one can do over the internet. I'm confused either way why questions are necessary if the apple password entered was correct. It's not my bank account; why the need for such extreme security just to download an app paid for by an iTunes card!
    Any help or direction would be appreciated!!
    Thank you
    Kate

    Hello there, Kate.
    Apologies for your frustration. For your security the existing questions need to be answered before new ones can be created. The following Knowledge Base article provides some additional steps to try if you are unsure of the answers to the existing ones:
    Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
    Specifically:
    What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
    Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
    If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
    If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
    sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers. 
    If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
    If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
    contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
    Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • Adding a second optical drive

    Hi,
    I've have just added a second optical drive to my MP, it's an LG, "HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4120B" according to system profiler. I'v left the original apple superdrive as-is, and put this in the second bay. I'm pretty sure I've set it's jumpers to "slave", but it was in an external bay and I don't have a manual or anything, so I'm not 100% sure.
    Both drives work fine, on their own, but they don't seem to want to work together. Programs seem to have to wait for the 2nd drive to finish whatever it is it's doing, before they can get access to 1st drive (or vice-versa).
    I was under the impression that both drives can be working at the same time, and it would seem pointless having two drives if they can't work at the same time?
    I don't have to change anything about the original superdrive when adding a second drive, do I?

    Looking at your specs. the drive is an LG. I have an LG as well not the same model but I set my jumper to Cable Select, that is what worked and it is the same setting as the original Sony SuperDrive.

  • Adding a Second Airport Express

    Is there a trick to adding a second Airport Express?  My network is created by an Airport Extreme.  Six months ago, I added an Airport Express to get better coverage upstairs (no problems).  Now I want to add a second Airport Express to extend coverage to the back of our house.  I plug in the Airport Express but it never shows in the Airport Utility.  I have tried over and over and it never appears.

    The second Express can "extend" the signal provided by the AirPort Extreme, but it cannot "extend" the signal from the AirPort Express that is already "extending".
    The Express always needs to be located where it can receive a strong signal from the main router in order to "extend" that signal.
    Might that be the issue here?  The second Express is possibly located too far from the AirPort Extreme?
    If we need to do some more checks, is your Mac runnign OS X 10.6.8 as your profile indicates?

  • CANNOT CONNECT A SECOND NANO TOSAME COMPUTER

    I'm having a terrible time installing and setting up a second Nano to same computer.
    First Nano was installed at Christmas (last year) and works fine; the new Nano (from Christmas this year); the software will not install and the music doesn't show up on the new Nano.
    I have Windows XP and using "Windows Media Player I've tried "Syncing" the music files from my Windows Media Player library to the new Nano and I've tried "Copying/Pasting" the music files from Windows Explorer to the new Nano. When I open the Windows Explorer and click on the drive for the Nano (on my computer it's Drive-E) the music files are there, but the music files DO NOT appear on the Nano's display screen nor will the Nano play the music. I'm sure this has something to do with installing the new Nano's software and I'm at a complete loss as to what to do.
    This is all so frustrating; I cannot understand why Apple makes these things so complicated; my youngest daughter is broken hearted because she cannot enjoy her Nano like her older sister. I feel totally helpless!!! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME???
    I can be contacted direct at either, "[email protected]" or "[email protected]"

    Thank you KaeBFly for your feed back. I understand about syncing from Windows Media Player now. I actually tried that only as a last resort and found that it didn't work either. I first tried downloading the software for iTunes 7 and it didn't work. I'm wondering if I should first delete the software that was loaded with last year's iPod (Gen 1 model) and then download the iTunes 7, or is it possible to use the iTunes that was loaded onto the computer (with last year's Gen 1 Nano) with this year's new Gen 2 Nano.

  • Added a second IP to our server = Now users can't log-in

    Hi,
    I had a server that was working fine. It had one external IP address. I then added a second external (dedicated) IP address to the same ethernet port, by adding a second port in "Network Preferences" and manually typing in the IP configuration - just as I did for the original ethernet interface when the server was originally configured.
    The reason I added a second IP address is so that I could run Apache2 on port 80 on the new IP while continuing to run Apache1.3 on port 80 of the original IP.
    Of course now I've screwed up the reverse DNS and such and my users can't login over AFP (though SMB is ok). My initial IP has a properly configured reverse lookup, the new IP does not. The new IP is using the ISP's default domain name.
    In a situation like this, am I supposed to configure both IPs to resolve to the same computer name? myServer.company.com ? Or should each IP resolve differently..
    Thanks
    Woody

    Of course now I've screwed up the reverse DNS and
    such and my users can't login over AFP (though SMB is
    ok).
    How do the users connect to AFP? WAN or LAN, Hostname or IP ?
    My initial IP has a properly configured
    reverse lookup, the new IP does not. The new IP is
    using the ISP's default domain name.
    In a situation like this, am I supposed to configure
    both IPs to resolve to the same computer name?
    myServer.company.com ? Or should each IP resolve
    differently..
    Reverse lookups (PTR records) shouldn't come into it. If users use a hostname to connect then all you will need is an A record to convert the hostname to an IP. If they use an IP to connect, then no DNS is accessed. So if you cannot connect directly using the IP address then it suggests firewall or config - test for open 548 port etc.

  • Itunes page pops up continually on the pc since we added a second ipod. how do I stop the pop up? help/ to the same pc

    itunes page pops up continually on my windows Vista pc since we added a second ipod and sync it to the same pc. How do I stop the pop ups??

    Many thanks lllaass,
    The Touch Copy third party software for PC's is the way to go it seems and although the demo is free, if you have over 100 songs then it costs £15 to buy the software which seems not a lot to pay for peace of mind. and restoring your iTunes library back to how it was.

  • Problem with adding a second Categories field to my Enterprise Wiki Page template

    I wanted to add a second category field beside the default wiki category. So I did the following steps:-
    Inside my enterprise wiki site collection, I added a new Site Column, named “customer” with a managed metadata type.
    Then I added the site column to the “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type.
    After that using the SharePoint Designer , I added the new “Customer ” column to my EnterpriseWiki.aspx page layout.
    The result was that I got a new category field , but I am facing these two problems:-
    When selecting items for the new metadata column, the items are not clickable, unlike the default Wiki Category field, which allow users to click on the terms , as follow:-
    The new category column was not displayed inside the Tree View , same as for the default Wiki category, as follow:-
    So can anyone advice how I can solve these two problems ? Thanks

    The Visio Web Part displays Visio diagrams that are located in SharePoint.  Once you log out it won't have access to your desktop anymore.  Instead you should upload the Visio document to a SharePoint library and then reference it from
    there.  It would be nice if it was integrated into a single process, but I suspect its not something MS thought enough people would do to spend the time writing the extra code to integrate it.  So at least for now its a two step process.
