Can you use V. Ipod on 2 computers?

Hey guys and thanks for looking at this question.
My question is, I have 2 computers, Is it possible to upload songs from both computers into my video ipod??
Thanks in advance for the reply

YES as long as you have your ipod on MANUALLY MANAGE SONGS.
if your in automatic, whatever itunes libtary you connect your ipod to, it will copy it (MIRROR IMAGE) and will erase all the songs previous to it. if on manual, you can transfer from pc to pc with out loosing any song
hope this helps

When using the migrate tool to migrate from windows to mac, can you use ethernet to connect the computers to each other?

When using the migrate tool to migrate from windows to mac, can you use ethernet to connect the computers to each other? In the Migration tool, I was only given the option of choosing the computer when it appeared on the same network, and didn't see an option to connect them to each other. Even though they're both connected to the same network with a wired connection, the migration is painfully slow.

Yes. The following quotation is from About Windows Migration Assistant
These are the preferred network connections, in order:
Use a CAT6-certified Ethernet cable that is in good condition to connect the Ethernet port of the PC directly to the Ethernet port of the Mac or Ethernet adaptor (USB or Thunderbolt). You shouldn't use an Ethernet cable that has any kinks in it or is missing connector tabs.
Use CAT6-certified Ethernet cables that are in good condition to connect the Mac and PC to your home network router/hub/switch. You shouldn't use an Ethernet cable that has any kinks in it or is missing connector tabs.
For wireless, use the fastest wireless signal possible (802.11n 5Ghz). Try to have the PC, Mac, and the wireless access point all in the same room close to each other.

Can you use a iPod nano 4G With iTunes 10

I was wondering can you use a iPod nano 4G with the new iTunes 10

Yes. All previous generations of your iPods should still work with the latest version of iTunes.

Can i use one ipod on two computers?

Can anyone help me please?
My son has ipod shuffle and has a separate itunes account, but before he got an ipad for his birthday, we set up itunes on my home computer, using my itunes account.
His account has lots of credit whereas mine now doesn't as we have to use my account to purchase his music!
We need to know if it's possible for him to purchase music from his itunes account either directly from his ipad or from my computer using his itunes a/c and ipod. A friend told him that he can't use his ipod on another account as it would wipe out his songs. Is this correct?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help.

I think you need to manually update on at least the computer that has the smaller music selection.
it may be best to turn off automatic updates on both machines and manually add and delete songs.
or you could network both computers to share one music library

Can I use 1 iPod on 2 computers if 1 is a Mac and the other is a PC?

I am a Mac user primarily and I use my iPod with iTunes on my Mac most of the time. Every so often I want to connect my iPod to my PC but after installing the software that came with the iPod and then connecting it to the PC it tells me that I need to format the iPod for Windows.
So the bottom line question is....how can I use the iPod on both and be able to go back and forth without complications?

Here's a link that will give you some of the information you need. The most important thing when switching between OS is that the iPod will have to be formatted for Windows. A Mac can handle a Windows formatted iPod, a PC can't handle a Mac formatted iPod. Hope this helps.

Can I use 2 ipods on 2 computers??

I want to buy my girl a Nano, I have a Mac G4 and an iPod already. Can I use 2 ipods with 1 computer, and are they separate accounts ie different choices of music??

Each user account has a separate music library, and you can set each iPod to only sync selected playlists or sync manually if you want a single library. The iPod shuffle doesn't have a manual sync option.

Can you use two iPod's on the same computer?

I currently have an iPod Video, and my mother wants to get a shuffle or nano. The problem is, we only have one computer that will let iTunes run. Is it possible to use two iPods on the same computer, or even with the same iTunes?

See these articles about using more than one iPod on one computer, and with either one or more iTunes libraries.
Multiple iPod installations.
How to use multiple iPods with one computer.
If you have the latest iTunes, an easy way to create a new library is to hold down the 'alt' key whilst opening iTunes (for Macs), or hold down the 'shift' key (for Windows).
This will give you the option of either using the current iTunes library or creating a new one.
There are various methods of transferring different songs to different iPods with a single iTunes library.
One is to manage the songs manually.
With this setting, you can drag and drop songs/playlists etc onto the iPod from iTunes, and also delete and/or edit songs which are currently on the iPod without affecting the iTunes library.
If you wish to keep the convenience of automatic sync, then you could set the iPods to sync with "selected playlists". This setting can be found in the iPod summary screen under the 'music' tab. With this setting, different playlists can be transferred and later deleted from each iPod without affecting any playlists stored in iTunes or the playlists on the other iPods.
Also, on the 'summary' main page you will see the option to "only sync checked items". With this setting selected, if you remove the check marks from any songs in iTunes, they will not be transferred to the iPod. You can restore the check mark if you want to put the songs back on the iPod at a later date.
Be aware that when playing songs in iTunes, any songs that do not have a check mark against them will be skipped over and will not be played.

Can you use the iPod connector cable to charge the iPhone or

only the cable that came with the iPod?
Also, I put the iPhone briefly into my old inMotion speakers and a message
came up saying that the device didn't support an iPhone and would either not
charge my iPhone or have bad consequences for my iPhone-i wasn't sure-it did
work in the speakers tho.

I use an iPod connector almost all the time and have never had a problem, even after market iPod connectors, but you'll get a different response depending on who you talk to. The guy at the Genius Bar told me yes, but phone support said no. Short answer...You should be able to use the iPod connector.
When you plug the iPhone into some 3rd party devices, you'll get a message stating "not compatible with iPhone" but that is because you are going to get interference because of the cell signal. You can put it into Airplane mode to avoid the interference or just deal with the interference and just click OK. That being said, I have read other posts where these devices do cause damage to the iPhone so proceed at your own risk.

YES OR NO-Can you use one ipod and it's library on more than one computer?

I cannot seem to access my library from this additional computer I have authorized and synced already...is there something I am missing or is an ipod loyal to only one computer at a time?
Thank you

Can you use your ipod nano as a flash drive?

Hi,
I read somewhere that someone used their ipod as a flash drive and just wondered if this is possible? If so how do you transfer files from your Mac to your ipod and vise versa?

Thanks I found the features guide here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search&src=support_site.psp.ipodnano.sear ch&q=iPod%20nano%20features%20guide
as I have no idea where mine is and it shows how to do it on page 45. I'll try it out and post back if I have any problems.
The only downside is I have to clear things off my nano to use it as a disk drive. Thinking maybe having a USB Flash drive is a better idea than using my nano this way. It's great to know it's possible to do this though if I need to.

Can you use your iPod as an external hard drive?

Sorry if this has been posted before . . .
I have a 160GB iPod and like with most people, my iPod is larger than my laptop and subsequently I am running out of free space on my laptop due to all the movies and music.
I’m not so worried about the music, but I would like to remove the burnt movies from my laptop, but leave them on my iPod. Is there any way of using the iPod like an external hard drive? If I delete the movies from my laptop – the iPod tries to Sync and I lose everything?
Thanks in advance,

Thanks Chris,
When I use iTunes through the normal sync window
Devices > Ipod > movies
and select ‘Sync - selected movies’ and tick the ones to sync it removes the un-ticked items from my iPod. If I tick all of them and sync (and the movie has been removed from my hard-drive) it brings up an error message saying ‘the movie or data file cannot be found’.
I would be happy to use iTunes to store the movies, but I think I am missing a step.
Appreciate the help,

Can you use iTunes on two different computers for one iPod?

My computer broke and it is currently being fixed, but in the meantime I want to update my iPod. Does anyone know if I can download iTunes on a different computer and plug in my iPod to put the songs I currently have and put different ones on. Also, if I do that will it be able to work on my computer when I get it fixed? Thanks

Can you use two iPods on the same account?

I just purchased a new iPod because my older one has been having trouble. When I logged onto iTunes it would recognize my new iPod because it said another user was logged on. My question is, can I add this second iPod to my account so that I can use all the music I've purchased with it? How do I do it if I can? This is very frustrating, please help!

Yes you can. My wife and I each have iPods and use the same iTunes store account. Only plug one iPod in at any given time. Also, turn off fast user switching if you choose to set up another user account.
