Can I Use Two Libraries On Two Different Computers?

I use a desktop and a laptop. Can I have a library with different music on both and add those songs at any time, without erasing either library? Sometimes when I'm on the go I download songs on my laptop and would like to add them to my IPOD Photo, but I am prompted to create a new library which would delete my desktop library.

Hi,
only had my Ipod for a couple of weeks but think I can offer some help.
Ive got a PC (boo) with my main Itunes library, Ipod format for windows, I also have powerbook (yea) with another Itunes library. I sinc with the PC. When I connect to the Laptop it offers me the chance to link to that library and as you say if you say yes then it will wipe your Ipod and replace everything.
However if you say no the Ipod will still be recognised. Now go to Ipod settings (in itunes) and change for automaticly sinc to manage manualy. You will now be able to add individual songs to your ipod without affecting rest.

  • Can I use my CC plan on different computers?

    Hi, I had purchased an Individual CC plan. I wish to know whether I can use my Adobe ID on different computer to enjoy my CC features. etc: After I logout from my PC, can I login ID on my laptop to continue using my CC features?

    Yes, I have the software installed on 3x PCs. Only two can be signed in at a time. When you try to sign into a 3rd you will have the option to sign out of all other devices. It works great but this is kind of a pain if you switch back and forth regularly.
    Adobe!
    May I suggest/request upping the maximum number of PCs you can be signed into to say 5x computers? This would still be an individual license where you're only using 1 at a time, but signing out and back in constantly is getting to be a pain.

  • Can I use my Nike+ with 2 Different Computers: my home mac and work PC?

    I use my Nike+ with my Nano on my home iMac and track my runs on Nike+.com. Works great. However, I travel for work and will be back on the road next week with my work PC. I don't have itunes loaded on my work PC (not allowed - its not "corporate" software).
    So, will my Nike+ and Nano store a week's worth of workouts till I can get home and connect to my home iMac? Is it possible to somehow upload to Nike+.com from my windows PC without loading iTunes?
    I want to track all of my workouts, even when I travel.
    Thanks for your help!!

    I have the same question. On a regular basis I use my Nike+ with my desktop. However, I travel quite often and run while out of town, and would like to also use my laptop to send my run info to Nike+. I have looked on the Nike+ website and also found no answers. I do not want to sync my music on my laptop to my Nano, only the run info.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apples Ids?

    Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apple ID's

    What do you mean by "apple ID"?  There's an ID you can use at the iTunes store to buy songs, apps, etc.  there's an ID you can use for your iCloud account - the two can be different or the same. So which service are you referring to when you talk about an apple ID?

    Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?
    I have one 1T Western Digital backup drive that works well with Time Machine and my MacBook Pro.  I now want to back up my wife's MacBook Air using Time Machine on her Mac and want to know if I can use the same WD external drive or if I need to get a 2nd back up drive?  If I can use one external drive for the two Macs do I need to do something special on the drive or will Time Machine do it automatically?

    Yes. You will need to configure Time Machine preferences on each computer to backup to the same drive. Note that you cannot connect the backup drive to both machines at the same time.

  • How can i join two libraries from two different users

    how can i join two libraries from two different users in the same computer?

    I should add that you can turn on SHARING where each user can see the other user's library and play stuff out of it. But they can not import those tracks to their own library or put them into their own playlists or burn CDs of the shared library.
    Also note, to do this you need to have the fast switching option enabled with the accounts so both can be running at the same time and both must have iTunes running at the same time.

  • How do I combine two libraries from two different computers?

    My wife and I have two libraries on two windows computers. She wants to add my songs to her library. I do not wish to add her songs to mine. Can we do this? How is it done?
    All songs on my iPod have been purchased from iTunes. Her library is half purchased from iTunes, using the same iTunes account, and half from CDs that she's loaded.
    OK, rookie question. But we're headed on vacation and I want my iPod back for the trip.
    Thx!

    You can transfer the iTunes songs from your iPod to her computer, just remember two things.
    1) Set your iPod to manual management before connecting to another computer so you don't accidentally erase it. You can change it back to auto-syncing on your own computer when you are finished:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    2) Authorise your wife's computer to play songs from your iTunes Store account:
    About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
    Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • How can one use Mission Control with two monitors?  Please bring Spaces back

    How can one use Mission Control with two monitors.  With Spaces I could treat each space as a single desktop.
    SyBB

    I use two monitors at work and have no issue. I have my mail set to use Desktop 1 and iTunes set to the second monitor of Desktop 1. I have browsers set to Desktop 2 and Fusion and RDC set to Desktop 3.
    Two things that may help you. In System Preferences > Mission Control, disable the setting "Automatically rearrange spaces...". This screwed with assigning applications to certain spaces. And the other thing is don't use full screen on apps that support it. This just makes your second monitor superfluous.
