Can ipod Nano work on PC and Mac at the same time?

I have a PC at home, which my iPod is formatted to. I tried to plug it into my iMac at work today and it didn't recognize any of my songs. It gives me the option to erase and sync or transfer purchases, neither of which will let me play anything. If I'm not confused, I was able to plug in my old ipod to any computer and play the songs on it without actually transferring anything - kind of like using iTunes like an iHome or something. Once you ejected your ipod from the "foreign" computer, your songs came with it. Can you not do this anymore? Or is it a mac/PC issue? I'd really like to listen to my music at work. Please help!

No. Standalone serials are platform specific. You will have to get Creative Cloud or a separate license for your Mac.

  • Use one external harddrive on both pc and mac at the same time

    i bought an iomega external harddrive today
    can i use it on both mac and pc at the same times?
    for ex:
    when i plug in both computer
    i could able to read and write on the hdd on both computer
    since i format it into 4 partitions (2 journal and 2 doc)
    so i wish i can use them separately in 2 computers

    Hi Jerry_L and welocme to Discussions,
    using such USB or Firewire connected external harddrives with two computers at the same time is usually not recommended by the manufacturer.
    Doing so might lead to data-loss and the like.
    Check with the manual of that harddisk to verify.
    Using it with one computer at a time with your partitioning should be doable.

  • Can multiple users work on a Numbers spreadsheet at the same time

    We want to acess and edit a spreadsheet with two users in different locations using iPads. Not at exactly the same time but without having to close out of the app like Excel.

    I've seen changes I've made on my iPad show up on the same document that's been open all the time on my Mac, which suggests it might be possible. However, I've also had a small number of notifications that documents on different devices are not in sync with each other. So while it might have the potential to work, I'd be inclined to think it would be quite unreliable.

  • Can I install a new SSD and Yosemete at the same time?

    I have a 2012 macbook 13" and the latest mavericks 10.5.9, can I use disk maker x, then swap my HDD for an SSD and install Yosemite???

    If you mean can you have them both connected at the same time, then it's a yes. I have both connected and use the mouse for some functions and the trackpad for others... works a charm.

  • Can i do this? (wired and wireless at the same time?)

    Hi all
    My first time on these boards, Iam hopefully setting up a wireless network at home very soon. At the moment I have a cable modem that is 'hard wired' directly into my G5 imac that has no wireless cards installed. simple (so far)
    Now... Iam getting a laptop very soon and wish to go wireless roaming the house etc so i will purchase an airport extreme at the same time.. is it possible to have my laptop on wireless and the G5 'hard wired' from the airport station providing 2 connections at the same time one wireless, one hard wired?
    If not, what kit do i need to make this happen? apart from a wireless card for the G5 which id rather not do as id like that connection 100% stable and as fast as the 10mb will go..
    Any help and advice would be appreciated.

    The default settings of the AEBS works with most cable modems without any configuration changes needed.
    The AEBS is a NAT router, meaning that it will be "seen" by your ISP as a single device. In turn, the AEBS will distribute private IP addresses, on the local network, to all of the computers connected to it (wired or wirelessly) because it has a built-in DHCP server. So in this case, each of your computers would be assigned an unique IP address.

  • CC Licence - PC and Mac at the same time?

    I have CC on my windows 8.1 PC - works fine for my current purposes, However if I want to develop an iPad App using InDesgn and Single DPS I need a Mac to complete the Apple process of building the Folio, getting the certificates and actually publishing the App.
    How can I have InDesign CC on both my PC and the Mac (which I have yet to buy!) without breaching Adobe licence rules?
    Or am I allowed to have CC on two different OS machines providing only one is actively being used at any given time?

    As per the following link, it is mentioned under the "Getting Started" menu, that you can install and activate Creative Cloud desktop applications on two computers, regardless of operating system, for the individual associated with the Creative Cloud membership.

  • Please Help: Brand new to Logic and Mac at the same time

    Dear Board,
    I joined the Mac family yesterday and have done pretty well with getting Logic and Cubase 4 installed on the Mac. (It's like trying to learn Spanish when you're from Alabama)
    However, when I assign an instrument track to ESX sampler, no libraries or presets come up. I can hear one sound, but when I pull down the menu to load another sound, there are no other sounds to be found. Do I have them stored in the wrong place or did they not automatically load when I installed Logic?
    Specifically, I am looking for a decent acoustic piano sound, but can't make it work.
    I migrated from Logic 5 on PC to this setup yesterday, so it's all new to me. Any help you can give will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    B3

    Well a fellow Las Vegan, that is something I
    havent seen since I have been on this forum.
    Anyway welcome and good choice to go with
    Logic Pro 7. This app is a constant challenge.
    First I have to ask an obvious question, did you
    install the contents disc? That is the one with all
    the samples on it. Since you have been using a
    different version, I assume you know how the
    EXS works so that should not be the issue.
    If you click on the black area no menus come up?
    Or do empty menus come up? We will get it going,
    this sounds like misplaced files. Phil

  • Upgrading Logic and Mac at the same time?

    Hey, I need a bit of help. I am curenttly running Logic 7 on a 2.0 dual core powermac G5. When Apple release the penryn chips I will sell my G5 and get a new mac book pro. I want to upgrade to Logic 8 (the UK upgrade price is about £130). However would I need to install logic 7 on the new mac to be able to use the upgrade? Sorry if this sounds stupid! I don't really wanna be installing old software on my new mac. Could someone explain how this would work. I would prefer to keep everything new and simple, for some reason I have an image of installing 7 and then upgrading to 8 is gonna eat all my memory and hardrive space and muck up the new machine?! Kinda wanted to start afresh with new computer, new software etc. There is nothing I need to bring over from my copy of Logic, no tracks or plug-in's or anything. Also another factor is I think I have 7 or 7.1, not sure that will even run on the new intels will it? If I remember I think 7.2 was the intel upgrade. If I had the money I would just buy it from scratch but I don't have the money and spent about £600 on it originally so would prefer to keep costs down!
    Cheers

    No, just install Logic 8 and have your XSkey handy.
    Logic 7 installation is not required (or even advisable.)

  • I can hear both a clean sound and distortion at the same time.

    I can hear both a clean sound and distortion through my monitors and headphones. I am playing into a Presonus USB and directly into a MacBook Pro. Any idea how I can get rid of the clean sound?

    You probably have a mix knob on your interface that switches between dry and wet signal. The knob should mix the signals.

  • Pc and mac at the same time

    hey guys it is possible to use time capsule both on mac and xp, i use my mac as main computer and i just want to use my pc *** access random data on time capsule

    OK, so you just want to know how to access the TC from a PC?
    Run Airport Utility from the Mac. Choose "manual setup", then "disks", "sharing".
    Make sure that sharing is enabled. Set the Workgroup name to be the same as the Workgroup name set on the PC. The default for XP is "Mshome".
    You should now be able to use the TC from the PC, assuming that you have a network connection between the PC and the TC. The TC will be visible in Explorer/My Network Places/Windows Network/Workgroup (or similar, just keep clicking the "+" signs until you find it).

  • Using iPod both in Windows and Mac at the same Time?

    I was wondering if it was possible to use my brand new ipod both in Mac as in Windows without having to format or restore it every time?
    The idea is to use "manually manage songs" on both Operating Systems.
    Thanks for your help!

    iPods come formatted Windows and will work on Macs and Windows. Unless you Restore it in a Mac, it will stay formatted Windows.
    If it doesn't work, put the iPod on Disk Mode and iTunes should recognize in both systems.
    If it is formatted Mac, it will not be useable on Windows, even in Disk Mode.

  • I have on;y one audio port can i use it for input and output at the same time?

    i have the new macbook pro 13 in and i want to connect aguitar as input and output on an amp but i have only one audio port

    You can't use the jack as an input and output simultaneously. The solution is to look for a USB or Firewire interface to get your guitar sound into the computer.
