Can I have an IPOD and an IPOD Shuffle at the same time?

I have had my IPOD for almost 2 years. Recently as a gift I received an IPOD shuffle. Can I connect the shuffle to my pretty robust ITunes that is connected to my 20GB IPOD?
I don't want to mess up my current library, so before I tried hooking up the shuffle, I wanted to make sure nothing bad would happen.

As Samtherocker says, you can use two (or more) iPods with one computer; in fact, you can connect them both at the same time and iTunes will allow you to maintain them separately. The iPod preferences in iTunes will now have a drop down list when they're both connected and you can have separate preferences.
This article goes into more details: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
As an experiment, I connected all three of my iPods to my Powerbook and it worked flawlessly; the only problem I then had was that I ran out of USB ports, so I couldn't use my mouse. Time to get a wireless mouse methinks...

    hello good morning ....how can I have all my PDF files  in Ibooks at the same time in my iPad and my iPhone, Thanks.

    That's exactly how it's going to work. Unless you've set up separate iTunes playlists for your devices, the books will be deposited the books section on iTunes, and will appear as PDFs.
    As Gus2259 said, you can use iCloud or Dropbox, or transport it through iTunes via an attached computer, or even use a cable.

  • How can you listen to music and play a game at the same time?

    How can you listen to music and play a game at the same time?
    I am playing music, by starting the Crash Baandicoot Nitro Kart 3D game it shuts off the music playing. Is there a way around this?
    It seems like this should be possible.

    Select the music play list you want to listen to and start it playing. Go back to the home screen and start the app you want to use, music will stop. Press the home button two time quickly and it will bring up a simple control for controling the music. This works for me with all of the apps I have purchased including games. Just a note you can pull up the same music control if the iPod is a sleep and locked by pressing the button three times quickly.

  • Can I have two projects open on Premiere Elements at the same time? (Elements 13 for Windows)

    Hi there.
    Can I have two projects open on Premiere Elements at the same time?
    The reason I wanna do this is because I've trimmed many hours of clips in one project (One timeline) and I want to start a new project where I have a "clean" timeline and can add clips from the
    first project (Cut and paste). Or how do I bring a trimmed clip from one project into another in a easy way?
    Thanks
    -Dan-

    Your question is in the Photoshop Elements forum.  There is another forum for Premier Elements and this will probably be moved.
    That said, the answer is that Premier Elements has not be designed with the ability to cut and paste from one project to another.  The only "work around" is to "Publish&Share" to a best quality format that matches your project settings.  You can control the output clips with the "work area bars".  You can then add the new clip to the second project.   The output rendering process can, at least in theory, reduce the picture quality.  Depending on formats, settings and footage, it may not be noticeable.
    There is a third party product called Clipmate that some say works, but not always with good results. 

  • How can I listen to itunes and play a game at the same time on my ipad 4?

    How can I listen to itunes and play a game at the same time on my ipad 4? This means I need to run 2 apps at the same time itunes and my game.  The game has its own sound control so I can turn off its sound while i listen to itunes tracks.  But I don't know how to set it up so the ipad does both.

    Anytime you open an app that has a persistant sound stream - a movie, a podcast, some games - it will overide the music app's stream. nothiong you can do to change it.

    No, I believe this is normal behavior, and you should NOT be able to connect both at the same time...

  • Can we have both 9i and 10g db running on the same machine

    Hi,
    I want to to exp/imp upgrade of my 9i db to 10g db.
    Can I have both 10g and 9i installed on the same server?
    Thanks,
    Kavitha

    Yes, provided that the HW, OS version and Patch level are certified for both 9i and 10g.
    Install 10g into a seperate ORACLE_HOME -- whether under the same "oracle" account or a different (e.g. "oracle10g" account).
    However, you should consider 11g as 10g is being desupported this month (i.e. no new patches / fixes will be available for 10g)

  • Can I use both Wifi and a Lan connection at the same time?

    With me back in the dorms I have been limited to a slower connection than what I would like. Now we are able to use both Wifi and a Lan line so I was wondering to somewhat "double" my speed if there was any way to use both connections at the same time.
    Now I know that you can have both plugged in at the same time, I guess what I'm asking is, is there a way that I could set programs to use one or the other? Or some kind of virtual desktop that is set to use the other connection or anything that would allow both be used at the same time.
    Or am I just wishing for something that doesn't have any possible way to work?

    MacBook pro 2.16 C2D 2gb ram   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    You can use both at the same time, but not gor Internet access if that's what you're asking.
    Now there is a thing called Link Aggregation, which combines a number of interfaces for speed/redundancy, but it really only works locally, and then only with ALL special equipment in the route, and most likely OSX Server involved.
    Sorry.

  • Help I can only have max. 3 osx apps. open at the same time ?

    If I have 3 apps. open, and try to open a 4th. this message comes up :
    The application "Mail" cannot be launched. -10810
    Of cause if I'm trying to open up something else than mail, lets say iPhoto, it will say "iPhoto".
    This is very weird to me, and I'm normally pretty good at solving issues myself, but I'm stuck with this one.
    Please help out

    I've had this quite a lot too. Do you find that under these conditions you can't load a disk image either?
    At first I put this down to Rosetta taking up a lot of resources. I was running OmniWeb with a lot of pages open in the workspaces so I've switched back to Safari until OmniWeb is UB. This morning I read that having Windows file sharing switched on helps to cause this problem. I switched this off, rebooted and ran disk utility to repair disk permissions and I've been running OK since then. I've currently got 13 apps open plus Finder and Widgets. They include 2 bigguns, Eclipse/MyEclipse and Visual Paradigm for UML. It'll probably stop working now I've written that.
    I run a MBP 17 with 2GB memory. My guess is that Windows file sharing does cause problems. I just hope Apple has resolved this in 10.4.7... whenever that is.

  • Can a single AE receive and deliver multiple signals at the same time?

    I've looked through the forums and the AE pdf manual and have not been able to find a definitive answer so far.
    We have a (all Apple) cafe in a remote location with no Apple support and we presently operate wireless music and wireless internet for customer use from one iMac and one AE. The iMac is also our cashier station. We have another iMac for customers who don't have their own laptops. The iMacs switch to screensaver displays promoting the cafe when not in use.
    Our wired TV monitors that are currently not associated with our AE display either satellite TV, cable TV or from DVD player using a manually switched hub with the three separate receivers wired to the hub.
    We want to add streaming TV from the internet to the TV monitors so we will have four sources. I am looking at connecting this internet streaming TV source to the TVs via AE hence I want to also allow the other TV sources to operate via AE. If possible, we would also like to switch in the screensaver from one iMac on a timed basis (or using Apple remote to one iMac) if there is nothing else of particular interest on the TVs.
    The AE has multiple ports that can be expanded using hubs that we can hopefully connect the existing 3 TV sources, and can receive / transmit to multiple computers but can it operate the iTunes, internet distribution, and TV output (with switching TV inputs via the iMac & AE Utility) at the same time or do we need multiple AEs and another computer?

    The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) does not have a TV or video output.
    The AEBS, just like any other router, supports multiple clients simultaneously. Of course there is always bandwidth limitations for any device. So in theory the AEBS can support all of that. In reality the performance of each service will depend on the bandwidth used by each and the bandwidth available. This is no different than any router.

  • Can you have more than 3 Bluetooth devices active at the same time?

    I have trouble getting my Sony DR-BT101 to link when my mouse, trackpad, and keyboard (all wireless) are connected. I need to link by stereo headphones for music analysis and cannot get all to work at the same time. My Sony headset either won't pair or connect or causes alert that interfere with the running of other programs during my work. Even when I answer one of the alerts and turn off the Mouse it refuses to connect and finishes with a Stop Using Headset message. Even if I choose "Ignore" instead of turning off the Mouse or Trackpad, same thing. I once had everything working at the same time, so I can't figure out what is going on but it won't honor more than 3 devices, it seems. And also, when a new email arrives in my mailbox (iMac OS Lion 7.1 Mail), the alerts stop popping up and go through 3 iterations as each new email arrives. Weird. Any response on how to deal with this?

    @kalos
    Uninstalled everything PA, also uninstalled mangler which was the only thing that depended on PA. It didn't work anyway.
    No pulseaudio --kill command so I couldn't run.
    Checked systemd journal and there is no mention of PA this time.
    Checked top, and grepped ps aux and there is no PA there either.
    I also rebooted the machine completely just to make sure. However VLC and HTML5 have the same incompatibilities.

    I see. That's too bad. At least we're not alone.

  • How can i send multiple videos and photos, via mail, at the same time?

    you allowed to send only one video or 10(+) photos via mail.
    but can you send both at the same time? so 10(+) photos and a video (or more than one) in one mail?
    because if my mom has birthday pictures or something like that. She likes to be able to send it directly from her iphone to every person she knows in just one mail.
    anyone any tips or tricks?

    Those restrictions are generally part of the email provider, not just the phone. Attachments are restricted due to size, bandwith use, etc. Trying to send that much information in an email attachment is even restricted on a computer. Sharing via photo sites is generally a better option for large amounts of pictures and large video files.

  • Can i have 2 ipods connected to the same computer and itunes

    if i have 2 ipods how do i get all of my music to both of them and can u even connect 2 ipods to the same computer????

    If you want all your music on both ipods, just plug them both in and iTunes should automatically sync them. If you want different music on each, then read this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432 or set them both for manual update in the iPod preferences.
