    You can plug the iPod into the same iTunes library as your iPod Touch and sync whatever content you like to it. There is no limilt to the number of iPads, iPhones, or iPods you can sync with one iTunes library, account, or computer.  How you sync one device will not affect the syncing preferences of the other.

  • Can the iPhone 6 be used in China now?

    My friend asked me to get an iPhone 6 from America, which is unlocked and without contract, I am not sure if he can use it in China. The salesperson told me I can not buy it from online and I should get it from an Apple Store. However, in an Apple Store, the iPhone 6 has a T-mobile contract or something and I can not understand. Now I just hope to get an answer from you as soon as possible. Thank you!

    You'll have to check with the Chinese telephone company if they have nano sims and are configures with the same frequency of your iPhone.

  • Can the iphone 6 be used for winter activities?

    Will it handle low temperatures and humidity (perspiration when in a pocket inside the outer wind/water proof shell jacket)? My iPhone 4s has often turned off during my cross country skiing (1-2 hours). Putting it in a sealed plastic bag seems to help, but that is so old fashioned when it comes to mobile phones (and fingerprint scanners will not work). Will the iPhone 6 be any more suited for winter sports use, or is it still made for warm and dry weather / indoor only?

    Yes u can turn off touch ID in the settings  and use a passcode if u want to

  • Why can't I enable disk use on my Ipod touch?

    I wish to use my ipod touch as an external hard-drive. I have watched videos on how to go about it and they show that there is a greyed out check box that must be checked. This check box does not exist for me. Why not? and is it possible to enable disk use?
    MY ipod is an ipod touch 4th generation, 8gb, ios 6.1.6
    Itunes version - 11.1.5

    You just be looking at instructions for the older iPods. None of the iOS devices such as the iPod touch have ever supported disk use. There are third-party utilities that purport to provide workarounds to allow such use, but I have no experience with any of them so I can't make any recommendations.
    Regards.

  • Why can't I carry on using my 2009 iPod Touch and 4 iPod Nano's. I don't wan't to buy any new versions. More and more apps are incompatible with my iPod Touch. I can't upgrade the sofware beyond v. 5. I certainly won't purchase any other Apple devices.

    My advice to any customers: Don't buy new devices. Apple is not looking after customers properly. Not all of us can afford to purchase new devices.

    Complain to the developers. The make the apps incomaptible with previour versions.

  • Can't install iPhone 2.0 Software Update for iPod touch

    I am trying to download the iPhone 2.0 Software Update for iPod touch from http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/whatsnew.html so I can download apps for my new iPod touch. (Although it is pretty bogus that I should have to pay $10 for an upgrade on a brand new device so that I have the privilege to buy apps). I have iTunes 7.7 already installed.
    When I click on the link https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/touchLandingPage , I do not get a download, and iTunes does not open. Nothing happens if I open iTunes before trying this link either.
    Instead, I get a brief page which says "One Momemt Please". Connecting to the iTunes Store. Loading... If iTunes doen't open, click the iTunes application in your Doc or Windows Task Bar" , then my browser is redirected to http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/download/?itmsUrl=itmss%3A%2F%2Fphobos.ap ple.com%2FWebObjects%2FMZFinance.woa%2Fwa%2FtouchLandingPage%3Fign-mscache%3D1 which tells me to download iTunes... but I already have iTunes installed.
    I installed (then uninstalled, reinstalled) the latest iTunes (7.7.0.43) and the problem persists. iTunes works fine for all other uses.
    I have the problem with both Firefox (3.0) and Internet Explorer (6)
    How can I download and install The iPhone 2.0 Software Update for iPod touch directly from iTunes? I cannot find it when I search for it. It is not listed in the App store.
    (P.S. The web support form does not work when I tried to fill out a problem report for "Connection" issues. Although I filled in all form fields, it would not send the report, telling me I did not fill in a field.)

    The upgrade now appears directly in iTunes, so I do not need to access it from the web page. I see many others are encountering problems installing the upgrade, so I'll see how it goes...
    There is no answer to the initial problem that iTunes install does not configure the browsers to handle the itmss:// protocol.
    I still think Apple should not charge for this for a brand new iPod purchased just this week.

  • How do I activate a used iPhone 3 with no SIM card for use as an ipod touch?

    How do I activate a used iPhone 3G with no SIM card for use like an iPod Touch? It was apparently on AT&T previously and I have another iPhone 3 that is active on AT&T if that is helpful. Thanks!

    Copied from the link provided.
    Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:
    Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
    Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.
    Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

  • Using phone as Ipod Touch

    I have an original iphone I was using like an ipod touch for wifi and apps etc... not connected to at&t. After I updated to 3.0 it is prompting me to activate phone with at&t. I don't want to sign up for phone service with AT & T i just want to use my iphone on wifi, for music and apps? Can I revert back to 2.0? Can i register phone without signing up for service with at&t?

    The answer is yes to all questions.
    You need to leave the no longer activated SIM card inserted in the 3G - the SIM card that was used with the 3G when it was activated in order to install a firmware update on the iPhone, or restore the iPhone with iTunes if needed or wanted.
    As it is possible to sync more than one iPod with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer with each iPod able to have its own sync preferences, the same applies to the iPhone.
    Under the Applications tab for the iPhone sync preferences for each iPhone, choose Selected Applications. Select the applications in the window below that you want installed. Deselecting an application in the window below followed by a sync will remove the deselected application from the iPhone.

  • My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

    My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

    There's info here on setting up separate libraries and user accounts. You won't have to reload (or re-import) all the music, just copy it.
    The reason I suggest separate accounts on the Mac is because if you have the two libraries under the same user account, iTunes will also open the last library that was open in that account, and you'll always have to be mindful of which library that is. If you open iTunes and find it's not your library, you'll have quit, relaunch holding the option key and select the other library.
    No, you won't have to log in and out of the Mac. (If I'm understanding your question here.) Multiple accounts can be logged in at the same time. And with fast user switching, you can toggle between user accounts.
    I'll admit that maintaining the two libraries gets a little tricky, because if you share all the same music, you'll have to add it to one and update the other. (That won't happen automatically.) But I think Home Sharing makes this much easier to do.
    Hope that helps!
