Can I have multiple Touch devices under 1 account?

I will soon have a total of 3 iPod Touch devices. Up to now I have only had to manage one under my iTunes account. Can I maintain my library on all three devices? Are there any ramifications to doing so? And when I set the others up, should I set up as new, or restore? Not sure I understand the differences of setting up as a new device versus restoring and syncing my library up to these. Also, if I have OS 3.1, will that be applied across all 3 devices?
Thanks.

You can sync as many devices as you like to an itunes account/library.
Restore will set up using the backup from the other ipod - this is handy when you are replacing an ipod touch. If you are adding a new one, then I would set up as new.

  • Can I have multiple Creative Cloud under one account?

    If we are a business and want to buy multiple copies of Creative Cloud, I was told that I needed to create an different AdobeID account for each copy of Creative Cloud. Is that right?
    Thanks!

    Thats right for the Creative Cloud individual edition you need to have for each Creative Cloud Subscription a seperate AdobeID.

    Can I buy more than one membership to an individual offering of Creative Cloud?
    No, Adobe has moved to identity-based licensing with a technology that will not support multiple same-product subscriptions, so you can only buy one membership per Adobe ID.  If you need two subscriptions to Creative Cloud, you will need to purchase each subscription with a unique Adobe ID.
    When you install your software, you will be required to enter the same Adobe ID that you used when purchasing your membership, for the following reasons:
    To help ensure that the person who subscribed is the same person who is installing the software
    To enable Adobe to send you important account information in the event your subscription is about to expire or cannot be charged to your credit card

    can I have multiple users use one apple account?

    I interpreted his post to mean that he meant multiple human users, not multiple devices.  Hopefully, he'll clarify.

  • How can i identify multiple apple devices under a same appleID for Facetime usage ?

    hi
    i have an apple ID and multiple apple devices
    i want to be able to use facetime to communicate between my various devices
    so, how can i identify my ipad from my ipod from my mac, so that i can do facetime between the three, using the same appleID ?
    thanks

    I found this discussion because I need to create dozens of Apple IDs for the faculty and staff of the school for which I'm the IT Director.
    This is weak.
    Apple, PLEASE upgrade the Apple ID system so it represents the current needs and paradigm.
    What am I thinking, Apple (like Google) don't follow user discussion forums, except by accident when an employee sees something and is motivated enough to carry the water for users in need.

  • We have multiple Apple devices under one roof. How to we sync our iOS devices to a single iTunes library?

    Hey all,
    Here's the scenario:
    We have Multiple devices
    We would like to have one large library on either our NAS (preferred) or iMac.
    The iMac will remain on 24/7 with the option to sleep. It will wake upon network activity. It has multiple accounts for each user.
    We don't want to sit down and open up iTunes only to find out that library wasn't the same on that mac vs. another.
    Wireless as possible
    Backup's run to the iMac vs. iCloud wirelessly.
    Equipment:
    My MacBook (2007 Black)
    Wife's MacBook (2008 Aluminum)
    "Family/Business" iMac
    My iPhone 4
    Wife's iPhone 4
    "Family" iPad2
    iPod 80gb
    Is this super easy or am I totally over thinking this? It seems to me that this should be a no brainer, but I'm having a hard time on making it work and finding a good reference. Any help is appreciated!

  • Can I have multiple iChat users under a single Mobile me account?

    I set up iChat with my Mobile Me account. But we have multiple users of iChat in the house, and each have their own MacBook log-in, etc. Can I set up each of the other users using a single Mobile Me account? {does this make sense?}

    Can I set up each of the other users using a single Mobile Me account?
    No. Use an AIM account instead.

  • Can't have multiple wirless devices operating at same time

    I have been trying to figure this out for quite some time now so hopefully someone can help me out. We have two laptops and a wireless printer. My laptop is Vista and my husband's is XP. We cannot have more than one wireless device operating at the same time. The moment a second wireless connection is made the other wireless connection is terminated. It can still detect the network but is "local only". This is only a problem when we are at home and using the linksys router. When we are at the lake where we have a different router we can both be on the internet at the same time with no problem. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this that would be great because my husband has so far come up with nothing and it's getting really frustrating! (Plus I'd like to actually be able to use my wirless printer). We have the WRT110

    On your Vista computer, try turning off IPv6 in the network properties.
    1. Click in Control Panel
    2. Click View Network status and tasks or Network Connections if you are in classic view
    3. Click Manage Network Connections
    4. Right click on your Wireless or Hardwire connection however you are connecting to the router and go to Properties
    5. Uncheck Internet Protocol Version 6.
    6. Hit ok.
    7. Reconnect the device to the network.

  • HT204053 can you have 2 apple ids under one account

    Our family has several apple devices.  Our phones and computers use icloud to coordinate calendars.  However we do not want to receive each others imessages and such.  With several iphones on imessage and icloud and under the same id this has recently become an issue.  How do we stop it from happening but stay coordinated with itunes and calendars?

    Each user should have their own Apple ID for an icloud account.  You can defined shared calendars that all family members can access and edit.

  • HT1918 Can I have multiple payment methods on one account

    Currently, both of my teenage sons and I are sharing an Apple account with one payment method. I would like to have a payment method for each of us.

    If they are teenagers, it is not too soon to set up individual accounts per person. 
    This will address the separate payments issue, and will make it much easier in a few years when they start heading off to university or moving to their own living arrangements.

  • Can I have 20 iPod devices on 1 account, each with a different set of songs (playlist)?

    I Have 20 iPods. One per individual (hospital patient). I have on,y one desktop PC. dp I need seperate iTunes accounts for each person?

    Bananaface82 wrote:
    the iPods aren't for commercial use, just for the patients to have.
    You may find that that counts as commercial use.
    That aside for a minute, I believe you could simply create twenty separate Playlists on the one account.
    Back to the personal/commercial use point. As tt2 states, there are special arrangements regarding copyright and royalties for hospital radio in the UK, which you may be able to make use of - if you're in the UK. It may be in your own interests to clarify this point with someone who has full legal understanding of the rules. Otherwise, you may find yourself in hot water.

  • HT4847 Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account

    Just got a second iPad for the home.
    Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account?

    Yes, but it's not usually recommended to share an iCloud account within a family.  If you do, any data you sync with iCloud will be merged and you, for example, will end up with each other's contacts and calendars on your devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting a contact) will be replicated on the other devices.  You will also all be sharing the same 5GB of free storage for all your data and device backups.
    Normally it's best to use separate iCloud accounts for each person's devices.  This will keep your data separated, and allow each person to have their own free 5GB of storage.  You can continue to share the same iTunes ID within the family; the ID you use for iCloud does not need to be the same as the one your use for iTunes purchasing.  (Each person should also use a separate ID on their devices for iMessage and FaceTime to avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.)

  • Can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account

    can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account? Like a iPad and Mac Book Pro
    If so how can I do this?

    Sure. That is what iCloud is meant for, so you can keep your devices synced.
    When you set up iCloud on the devices, use the same Apple ID on all devices, then the iCloud account will be the same.

  • HT4436 can I have multiple icloud accounts on one device

    can I have multiple icoud accounts on one device (ipad)?

    Are you sure only primary account can use Find my iPhone?
    I added a secondary account to my daughters iphone and was able to use it for Find my iPhone.
    It warns you that the Find my iphone service will be disabled on the other icloud account.
    I think this is a good change so I can use a single account to track all the devices.
    Looks like only photostream and documents/data are tied to the primary account.

    Hi, how can I set up icloud for my ipad and iphone5? I missed tout he initial setup step and now want to have both the devices under icloud. Please help...thank you!

    Go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your Apple ID to create the account.  Then turn on the data you wish to sync with iCloud.  See http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.

  • HT1386 Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    You can share a library with as many devices as you want but they cannot have seperate subsets like you wish. They would all have access to all information in the library. You could "Manually" sync content to each device by doing the following:
    On Mac: iTunes > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    On Pc: Edit > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    To manually sync data from iTunes to devices see article below:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
    If you do not want all devices to have access to all the media from the main library, you would need to create a library for each device. See the article below for more info:

    Hope this helps.
