Could an ipod touch work with two computers?

My PC dual boots between vista and XP.
the itunes libraries are slightly different, and i would like to save myself the trouble of moving my old library to vista. (re-linking every track, having things missing, all of that fun stuff) I would rather just sync it twice. Is that possible?

Well, you can't "sync it twice" as such, since the 2nd sync will overwrite the first. But your IPT will happily play nice with several computers so long as you set it to manually manage music and videos, and make sure sync applications is unchecked under the apps tab. I have mine set up this way and use it with my imac, macbook and the clunky old G4 Graphite I use in work.
Incidentally, if you fire up your PC in Vista, launch iTunes, open up the prefs and go to the advanced tab, you should be able to point your iTunes directly at the iTunes music folder on your XP partition by using the 'change' button, negating the need to move anything anywhere. Just remember to uncheck the 'keep itunes music organized' option.

    Does the Ipod touch work with airplay mirroring?

    No. Only iPhone 4S and iPad (2nd or 3rd Gen) as it requires more processing power. You can still use airplay with your device though.

    Is your Touch running iOS 5.n? If so, you can administer the AX with the AirPort Utility which you can download directly from the Apple App Store.

  • My Ipod Touch when I try to connect to ANY computer with ANY USB cable I get "USB Not Recognized" Other Ipod devices work with ALL computers and ALL USB cables PLEASE HELP!!!

    I am using an IPod Touch 3. I get the error message USB Not Recognized. Now I have tried three different USB Cables and three different computers...... Same error message. My daughters IPod Touch 4 works perfectly with all of those USB Cables and computers, so this is not a USB problem or a computer problem. It must be something with my IPod Touch 3. Every article I go to wants me to look at stuff on the computer but how could that make sense if other IPod Devices work fine? Please. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    You need to provide more information about your network. What frequency does it use (2.4ghz or 5.0ghz), which wireless protocol (a, b, g, b/g compatibility, n), and what security are you using (WEP, WPA2, etc.)?
    Please also provide more information about your iPod Touch. Which model is it, and which version of the iOS are you running on it?

  • Does an older iPod Touch work with 10.4.10?

    I see that the new iPod Touch requirements are for 10.4.11 and I am wondering if anyone knows if I could still use a second generation or even third generation if I bought it off of ebay? I just can't upgrade past 10.4.10 without making software break so I am curious at what version I would be safe with this OS. Thanks

    Hello Glen,
    According to this Apple support document providing technical specifications and minimum requirements for the second generation iPod touch, it will work on 10.4.10 or later. So this would work for you.

    However, any newer models will not.

  • Ipod touch working with only some earbud brands?

    All of a sudden, the Sennheiser earbuds I've been using when I run for about a year started making tracks sound..."robotic" or with an exaggerated echo. I tried my Apple earbuds and it worked fine as well as a pair of Sony earbuds and no problem. I thought it was my Sennheiser's that were faulty and grudgingly purchased a pair of  yurbuds to replace them. Same symptoms as before with the Yurbuds...Robotic and/or echo. Could this be the new OS? Could Apple have made it so that you could only use apple earbuds? They would not be so relentless would they?

    I just got a beats audio headset and it works absolutely great with my iPod touch. I suggest for you to buy one as well.

  • IPod Touch works with USB 1.0, why not iPad

    I just received an iPad as a gift but I have an old 17" iMac with USB 1.0 and it's not syncing with iTunes to setup. My iPod Touch syncs perfectly with 1.0, so why not the iPad? If it won't work, i guess I'll return the iPad and get credit towards a new iMac.

    Read the system requirements for the iPad to see if your machines have the correct OS and iTunes version.

  • Will an iPod Touch work with the iPod Hi Fi???

    Hi
    I want to upgrade my iPod Classic to an iPod Touch and was wondering if the Touch will work okay with the Hi Fi???
    Thanks.

    i have both the ipod touch and the ipod hi fi (the discontinued one) and yeah they work great together.. too bad it seems that last software upgrades from Apple to the itouch removed its capacity to have the "speakers" settings tab in the main option menu =(
