  • HT4759 Can you have more than one computer linked to the same icloud account?

    Can you have more than one computer linked to the same icloud account?  If so how do you add a computer?

    Yes, of course - that's the whole point, to provide syncing of data such as calendars, contacts and email between computers and iOS devices. Having got iCloud up and running on one computer, simply sign all other devices in at System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud with the same login. (Lion 10.7.2 and iOS5 are the minimum requirements.)

  • Can't have more then one computer online on same network

         Hi there, came across a weird issue. I have a macbook pro, I wiped my iMac and brought it as a gift for my parents. I wanted to demonstrat how we can use ichat. I created an account for my parents and have my own. However, only one computer can be logged on at a time on our network. However at my place when I was working on the iMac, both could be logged in no problem. The only difference here at ther place is I have a aiport Extreme Base Station. Would this be causeing it. Thanks

    Hi,
    In any router you can set how many Computers or devices can be linked or use it to access the internet.
    How it is done can vary and there could be various options accessible on one device.
    This is an older firmware for a Base Station but I am sure you can follow.
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    This is the Internet Tab/Icon at the top and the Internet Connection tab
    The top part is how the Base Station connects to any Modem (uplink)
    The red Box bit is what it is doing to the LAN side.  Share an Public IP is in fact DHCP to the LAN
    The DHCP Tab set the IP range (192.168.xxx.xxx or 10.0.1.xxx and so on) and the Limits of that range (i.e 1 to 254 IP addresses)
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    You could limit the range to 1 IP
    I actually do this on my router so that I know it is limited to the 2 wifi computers and the 4 phones.
    You will notice that the Base Station will get the IP of 192.168.1.1 in this case.
    That also leaves IPs 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.100 "spare" and along with those above .200  til the end of the range (255).
    The Mac can then be set to do "Manually with DHCP" and use a Static Address (Using an IP in the "spare" areas).
    You will also notice that there is a box where known computer or devices can have their IP listed so they always get the same IP.  (reservations)
    Using a limit scope of IP addresses and this can also exclude "newcomers"  as there may not be any "free" spaces in the usable range.
    Now...
    If the first Pic is set to anything but Share an IP then it is most likely that the Base Station is not doing DHCP to the LAN and the computer is set up to use a Static (Manually) set address.
    One option is "Bridge (Off) Mode" which is DHCP Off  (I forget what the other option is)
    This may Limit how many computers can acces the base Station (Particularly if visitors are set to "Using DHCP" in System Preferences > Network > TCP tab in the Advanced button)
    PPPoE
    In the top pic the connection Uplink might be using PPPoE
    This can also be "passed on" to another device,  which may be the Computer, which in turn would isoslate any other computer joining the LAN.
    Hope that give you enough clues to find out what he has set

  • Can I have more than one ipod with more than  music library on one computer

    I was just wondering if i could have 2 different ipods (one a 5th generation and the other ipod touch) with 2 different music libraries on the same computer and itunes? because right now im using my parents computer and my fiance is using my laptop and we're moving so we'll only have one computer in the next few weeks. So if anyone could try to give me an answer or have a solution that would be fantastic lol!

    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 u have multiple Ipods on one Computer?

    I have a iPod and would like to get my husband one but I want to make sure that we can have two ipods connected to the same computer. We use the same computer at home. I have my ipod dock connected now, would I need to add a dock for his or can he use mine? Do I have to change any settings to allow more then one ipod to use the same library?
    Thanks

  • Can you have two ipods on one computer?

    Ok I have a mac computer and an ipod nano and everything works great, but my mom is now getting an ipod nano. Is there a way to have two ipods on my computer, where each ipod has it's own library and account so we don't have to share all of our music?

    There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Just to summarise what's in the link above which is a little out of date:
    Method one is to have individual Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you completely separate iTunes Music folders and libraries.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that any or all of iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library:
    Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Mac
    Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs

    Another option when using a single library is to set any or all of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod

  • Can you have two iPods for one computer?

    I know nothing about iPods so please excuse me for this question that probably has an obvious answer. My sister has an iPod nano that she has been using with our computer for a long time. I just bought an iPod and was trying to set it up. So can I use her i tunes to put music on my ipod or how does it work? I am aware you are not supposed to steal music though. So what am I supposed to do?

    Yes, you can use 2 iPod with 1 computer quite easily.

  • How can I use two Ipods on one computer.

    I was wondering if it is possible to use 2 Ipods on one computer without having to reload all of the music to the new library.

    If you are adding a second iPod for your own use, just connect the new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions. It will update from your existing library. Depending on the size of your library and the type of iPod you choose you can have it update all songs and playlists, selected playlists only or you can manage it manually

  • Can I use more than one iPod with one computer?

    Howdy,
    I have a (hopefully) quick question. Can I use two iPods with one user account on one computer? Can iTunes keep two different iPods separate with different syncing rules for the same user account and iTunes library? I'm interested in the answer for both Mac and Windows machines.
    Thanks!

    You can use more than on iPod on one computer, and you can also use one iPod on more than one computer. Check out these articles:

  • Can I use 2 iPods in one computer?

    I have an iPod Nano and my brother has an iPod Mini. We only have one computer in the house. Can we plug and use both iPods in one computer without affecting the contents of each of our iPods? Because it might delete my songs when he plugs in his iPod and vice versa.

    There are a couple of methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer. Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries. Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. Have a look at this article and see what you think and go for whichever you feel suits your needs best: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Method two, "automatically update selected playlists only" would allow you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod Mini or Nano (around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB). You can read more about playlists at these links:

  • CAN YOU RUN 2 IPODS ON ONE COMPUTER

    HI. I HAVE JUST BOUGHT A SECOND IPOD NANO 2ND GENERATION. I ALREADY HAVE ITUNES SET UP WITH MUSIC FOR ANOTHER IPOD, BUT MY HUSBAND LIKES TOTALLY DIFFERENT MUSIC TO ME. CAN I HAVE TWO VERSIONS OF ITUNES - OR HOW DO I SEPERATE OUR MUSIC SO IT UPDATES TO THE RIGHT IPOD. TOTAL TECHNOPHOBE HERE - SO ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!!!

    Hi Canning0508,
    Yes, you can do this.
    Probably the easiest method in separating your music to go onto each iPod specifically would be to manage the iPods with their own playlist to sync from in iTunes.
