Connecting two iPods to computer at same time

Question: Am I able to connect two iPods (Nano and Shuffle)to my computer at same time? I would want to do this to mainly charge the batteries to these units. My computer has a four high-speed USB connections and I would like to know if this is possible and/or advisable. Thanks very much.

I'm not sure if you're able to use both at the same time (for data transfer)... You should, however, be able to use both for charging.
If you eject the iPods it shouldn't be a problem to use more than one at the same time. To eject the iPod in iTunes you would go to the iPod in the source list (on the left, under library, podcasts, etc.) then click on the little eject button, it'll stop being recognized by the computer so it should work.
I hope this works for you, if not, just update and I'll try to help more.
Good Luck,
Joey.

  • Can't connect two iPads to Internet at same time

    I recently got an iPad2 for Christmas - my husband already had one. We have realized that we can't both get online in our home at the same time! All other devices in the house are connected (iMac, Roku, my work laptop, etc.) and we can get one of us connected to the wifi network, but then the other one seems to get kicked off. I checked IP addresses for both devices and it seems like we have different ones - the last digit of the IP address is different at least. I was going to call Apple but was thinking they would assume this is an issue with our Internet provider and not the iPad. Has anyone had this problem?
    We have tried restarting the iPads, rebooting the modem/router, and clicking "renew lease" in the iPad network settings (I don't even know what "renew lease" is but we tried it anyway...)

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Can not connect two computers to net at same time

    I have a desktop and laptop connected to router.  I can only have one on the net at a time.  If one is one and I try to connect the other it will disconect or say busy.  Any suggestions?

    Make sure your modem is connected to the "Internet" port on the router, not one of the numbered ports.
    Are you using any fixed LAN IP addresses?  If so, list the addresses that you use and also list your DHCP server range.

  • How to sync with two computers not at the same time, I'm registerd with one computer

    How to sync with two computers (not at the same time), I'm registered with one computer and am trying to connect with second computer with same iPhone. To sync the first time with the second PC "Firefox Sync Option tells me Create New account or Connect, when I connect it gives me a Passcode and on iPhone it also gives me a Passcode, than how do I connect? Both the iPhone and PC gives me a Passcode and have now idea what to do with them.
    Where do I find my Sync Key ? so I can install manually if it works ?

    Use the Sync Key ''(Recovery Key)'' from the PC that you used to initially setup your Firefox Sync service, when setting up that 2nd PC with Sync. You need to use '''Add a device''' to setup the 2nd and subsequent devices on a Sync account. <br />

  • How do  connect two iPods at once.

    Hello, I have two iPods that I connect to one computer (1 a 5th gen ipod, and 1 a 4th gen ipod).
    I can only ever connect one of the two iPod's. When ever I try and connect a 2nd iPod, iTunes disconnects the 1st iPod, and only shows the 2nd iPod, and this then gives a windows error on the 1st iPod.
    Has anyone ever been able to connect two iPods at once in itunes for Windows?

    i have the same problem. With one ipod and another ipod nano, the itunes doesnt works, and need to restart it.

  • Can i power my iphone from the mains and connect to my mac at the same time

    HI
    Here is my dilemma, my daughter dropped my wifes iphone in the bath and it will now only power up when plugged into the mains. When plugged in it cannott find the sim and according to the local apple store the wifi antenna is also broken.
    We are not bothered about the phone it is the 1500 photos and videos of our girls which we dont want to lose. The phone hasnt been backed up recently and she is not registered with icloud so that is out the window.
    So, i thought that if the phone could be powered by the mains and somehow connected to my pac at the same time i could perhaps get the photos synced and then the phone can be traded in at the store for a £119 replacement, thank you by the way Apple!!! you pay full retail for a product (£419) and all you get told is "your phones knackered, that will be £119 please"
    It worht pointing out that the USB doesnt turn the phone on when connected to the mac.
    Is there such a cable in existence which has two usb leads from the iphone dock connector??
    I just cant beleive that the photos and videos cannot be accessed and saved by a company that always tells us they are cutting edge and ahead of the rest of the market, especially as the phone traded in will get, repaired, wiped and sold on as a refubed phone, if they can do that they can get us our files off.
    Anyway, any advice, assitance, product reccommendations would be very very welcome.
    Many Thanks

    How, exactly, would you propose connecting it to both an AC power adapter and your computer when it has only one dock connector? If you don't want to set it on fire, I wouldn't try.
    If it can power on when on AC power AND it can connect to either the cellular network or WiFi, plug it in and power it on and e-mail the photos to yourself. Not the most elegant solution, but it beats losing all of them. I assume you were not in the habit of backing up very often.

  • Two processes running at the same time in Lookout

    I have installed Lookout 5.0 with 200 I/O Points onto our server computer. The application of motion control is next to the 200 I/O points through OPC PMAC server/client. Now I would like to have a second process in the same server for trouble shooting and testing without stopping the motion control process. However, this second testing process could have also many I/O points through Serial and USB ports. I assume that the total amount of I/O points of both processes will be greater than 200.I prefer to have independent processes for control and testing because access levels. Can I have these two processes running at the same time when needed?

    Hi,
    From your description you are using a third party OPC server for the motion application. You could have a second Lookout process communicating with the same OPC server with no problems, as long as you do not exceed the number of I/O points your license supports.
    Also, the process you are using for testing obviously could not overwrite datamembers (or registers if you will) that would interfere in the overall application, in other words you can test your application as long as you keep the coherency of the test.
    So the answer would be, yes it is possible, however you are still limited to the number of I/O's your license supports... You may even consider upgrade the number of I/O's you have in your license.

  • How can I log into two differant accounts at the same time in two windows without the second window affecting the first.

    I'm trying to log into two facebook accounts at the same time in differant windows. When ever I log into the second account in the second window it changes the login in the first window. When I hit home or any other link the first window account has been logged out and logged into the second window account. I tried installing a second copy of firefox in a differant folder that the first but it seems to use all the files of the first installation. If I can get 2 toatally seperated instalations that don't rely on the same history, cookies, cache, etc I belive that will solve my problem. Please help.

    Nah, that won't work. Facebook has a feature that gets your IP Address, so as soon as you sign into one on the same computer, it changes the other login for safety purposes (say, someone was on a public library PC. They forgot to log out. Someone else logs in, and it automatically logs them out). You'll need 2 computers to do that.

  • Control two different parameters at the same time

    Two motors were connected each other rigidly. One motor controlled torque and the other motor controlled speed. I generated some torque and speed data which represented one cycle of motion from a motor simulation. I like to send these two different data sets (torque and speed) to two different motors at the same time. Torque data sends to one motor and speed data sends to the other motor to see the response of the load profile. In order to do this, I thought about using multithread, but I am not sure it will work for this application. Usually multithreading delay the CPU time so the overall control process might be delayed, right? If you have better idea, please let me know.

    If you are using one motion controller to control both motors, you will probably run into problems if you try to use multithreading on the PC. However, you can execute up to 10 programs (threads) at a time, in addition to host communication, using on-board programming. For more information on on-board programming please refer to the following tutorial: Developer Zone Tutorial: On-board Programming in FlexMotion

  • Connecting USB and Charger at the same time

    Hello guys, Is there any problem connecting usb and charger at the same time? after that, the Nokia Battery Monitor 2.0 shows 93% after full charge. Any ideia?

    yes, there is a male-female usb extension cable sold on computer store.
    Just pick up the length you need.
    But the price is almost the same with the cheapest 2.0 usb hub (4 port), so you better consider the usb hub one.
    Good Luck.

  • Connecting two ipod nanos

    it is possible to connect two ipod nanos to the PC to transfer music or videos from one to one???
    i have ipod nano 4G
    and my friend has ipod nano 3G
    waiting your reply.

    You can connect two iPods to the one computer, yes. However, you can't take files from an iPod and put it on another computer or iPod normally. There are some programs that allow you to take the files off an iPod and put them on a computer, but I don't think you can transfer directly from iPod to iPod.
    To connect the two iPods to the one PC, you need the connector cable for both of them - one cable will not do. The cable is white, and it has a USB and an iPod connector. It's the cable you use to connect the iPod to your PC normally. Put both of the cables in a different USB slot, and you're set.
    If one of the iPods is not 'registered' to the correct computer, you can click the 'Cancel' button and keep the iPod plugged in. I hope you understand what I mean.
    I've never used a program to get files from the iPod to a PC, but I know of a couple. Here's a list of a few names I know :
    Xilisoft iPod Rip
    iPodCopy
    4Media iPod to PC
    You can find those three on Cnet's Download website (http://www.download.com). They're all for Windows - I never checked if you have a Mac. I don't think any of them are free, but I didn't check.

  • I have an Apple Ipad Air. I'm trying to use two bluetooth earphones at the same time. Can it be done?

    I have an Apple Ipad Air. I'm trying to use two bluetooth earphones at one time. Only one works at a time.  Can two be used at the same time?  If so how do I get them to work?

    The likely reason no one can connect to the mini when it is connected to your work VPN has more to do with your work than your home set up. The administrator at work would have to decide to allow for "split-tunneling", thereby allowing your mac to be connected to work and the outside world simultaneously.

  • Actiance Vantage server duplicates the IM details and both Active Active Vantage servers connection is not established at the same time

    Hello
    Issue with the Actiance Vantage server.
    Env: Lync 2010 Server , Vatage servers - 2 active , 1 passive
    Commn: FE contacts HLB to reach Vantage servers
    Recently we have added one vantage servers to the lync environment and made two vantage servers as Active.
    After adding 3rd vantage servers and made two vantage servers as active , we are seeing the following behaviours:
    1) archived messages are duplicated with different transcripts ID
    2) Two active servers connections were not established at the same time. Only one is active at all times. There is four front end servers.
    Request for suggestions.

    Hi,
    Did you receive any error message?
    Please disable the third Vantage server and test again.
    Please check if all services started for all FE servers and Vantage servers.
    You can enable logging on FE servers for further troubleshooting.

  • How to insert into two differents tables at the same time

    Hi
    I'm newer using JDev, (version 3.1.1.2 cause the OAS seems to support just the JSP 1.0)
    and I want to insert into two differents tables at the same time using one view.
    How can I do that ?
    TIA
    Edgar

    Oracle 8i supports 'INSTEAD OF' triggers on object views so you could use a process similar to the following:
    1. Create an object view that joins your two tables. 'CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW test AS SELECT d.deptno, d.deptname, e.empname FROM DEPT d, EMP E'.
    2. Create an INSTEAD OF trigger on the view.
    3. Put code in the trigger that looks at the :NEW values being processed and determines which columns should be used to INSERT or UPDATE for each table. Crude pseudo-code might be:
    IF :NEW.deptno NOT IN (SELECT deptno FROM DEPT) THEN
    INSERT INTO dept VALUES(:NEW.deptno, :NEW.deptname);
    INSERT INTO emp VALUES (:NEW.deptno, :NEW.empname);
    ELSE
    IF :NEW.deptname IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE dept SET deptname = :NEW.deptname
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    END IF;
    IF :NEW.empname IS NOT NULL THEN
    UPDATE emp SET empname = :NEW.empname
    WHERE deptno = :NEW.deptno;
    Try something along those lines.
