Different ipod with same itunes

i recently broke my ipod and my sister gave me her ipod mini to keep. I wanted to erase her songs and jus add my songs to her ipod by plugging it into my computer. Her ipod had been hookd up to a different computer. When i plugged it into my computer it said that computer does not recognize device and nothing else popped up. SUGESTIONS???

Start by uninstalling iTunes and the Ipod setup software and download and installing the latest versions. Try connecting again if it still doesn't see the iPod try resetting it and then put it into forced disk mode before connecting. You could also try posting to the right discussion - this one is for the older, regular iPods. You have a mini.

  • Can I sync 2 apple tvs on different networks with same itunes account?

    I read that you can sync up to 5 tv's with the same itunes library, but do all tv's need to be on the same network?
    I've been able to successfully sync both apple tvs from my itunes account that's on my laptop. The first one works fine but the 2nd one keeps restarting itself while playing.
    I'm not sure if it's me or the apple tv.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Think I have it now. 2 tv's in different locations and on different networks, laptop connected to tv 1 over network 1 works fine, no go with tv 2 with laptop connected over network 2.
    Yes this could be an tv fault, you do however have the opportunity to check this. Swap over the 2 tv's if the problem moves with the tv it could be the tv, if it stays with the same network it could be the network.
    I'm not so sure it makes any difference but I assume you have named the two tv's differently in itunes.

  • How do I sync two different ipods with new iTunes software?

    Up until I upgraded to the new software, I was able to quickly and easily sync both my iPods. One is an iPod touch; the other a classic. Now, I can't sync my classic. Any idea why or what I'm doing wrong? This new software, IMHO, is not that intuitive.

    Is the following document of any help with that?

  • Having an iphone and 2 different ipods on same itunes, syncing iphone

    Is there anyway that there can be 2 itunes programs on 1 computer? The reason i ask, is that its a pain to sync the iphone after syncing an ipod. To sync the ipod you just select everything in the library. With the iphone's lesser memory you have to select, basically, one song at a time. This is a huge pain to do with nearly 6000 songs. Having 2 itunes programs that maintain to seperate library lists but used only 1 library would make syning much more painless. If there is a current way of doing this could someone let me know. Thanks.

    My first suggestion would be that you read the users guides for both iTunes and the iPhone and/or search help for "playlists". You can easily make custom playlists for each device that you synch to the same copy of iTunes. The online video tutorials on iPhone support will also show you how to do this.
    When your iPod, or iPhone, are connected to the computer, click on that "device" in the left hand column and you can select what you want synched from the "options" at the bottom of the page, and from any of the "tabbed" categories noted at the top of the window.
    My kids synch two iPods, and two iPhones, to iTunes on one computer. They each have separate playlists for their individual iPods, as well as their individual iPhones. Another benefit of this arrangement is that they freely "share" their music, videos, and podcasts with each other (of course...it's really MY music as I paid for all of it.)

  • How do i sync different ipods on same itunes/computer?

    I have an ipod classic and shuffle. Shuffle was purchased afterwards.
    I managed to create a separate library and added songfs into Shuffle's library. Now i'd like to sync, but forgot how
    to bring up each account, but can't open that library. Little help>???? Thanks.

    With iTunes, you can only run 1 library at a time. Libra allows you to create more than one library and switch between them. You will have to use something like Libra to import your other library, the one that you create for your shuffle and have libra switch to it. The problem that you will run into is that if you switch to your other library, when you plug in your ipod classic, iTunes will tell you that it was synced with another library and you will need to erase and sync. If you want to sync both ipods to the same library, 1 of the them will need to be erased and synced.

  • Can/how do i use a 2nd ipod with same itunes account? please help

    I dont use itunes/ipod. My husband is in Afghanistan and he would like me to buy him a 2nd ipod perhaps a nano so i can download his music and send that 2nd one to him.
    I dont know much of this but when i connect the new ipod nano to his itunes, wont it erase all his itunes? i somehow remember something about the itunes synchs to what is on the ipod (which would be nothing on this new one).
    any direction will help as i only have a small window to do/send this to him within the next days.

    There are a bunch of ways to pick what you want to sync to his nano. When you plug in the nano, if you make sure the device on the left panel in iTunes, on the main panel you'll see a bunch of tabs in which you can select what is synced. Click on the "Music" tab and you'll see that you can pick playlists, artists, or genres.
    The first option, playlists, is a very common technique. You create a playlist in iTunes ("File" - "New playlist") and then drag-and-drop music that you want to put on the nano into that playlist (and make sure you select this new playlist in that "Music" tab described in the previous paragraph).

  • Wanted to transferr purchases from a different ipod to my itunes libary however, when I clicked transferr purchases it deleted all my music and left with me with only the purchases I transferred this has never happend before please help

    Wanted to transferr purchases from a different ipod to my itunes libary however, when I clicked transferr purchases it deleted all my music and replaced it with the purchase I had transferred this has never happend before... please help

    Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

    how can i sync my iPod with new iTunes on new computer without losing my old library? There is no backup iTunes/iPod files available.

    If you connect your ipod to your computer then look in the hidden folder labeled "iPod_Control" . (This is on a Mac version, but i think it's the same for Windows) and in "Music" is all your music mixed up in different folders. Just drag the MUSIC folder onto itunes then BAM! It's done ;D

  • Can I run 2 different domains with same name but on 2 different machines?

    Yes you can. Make sure that domains configured to use different multicast address. WLS uses multicast for communications between nodes in domain.
              although your configuration will work, you could have troubles if you going to execute inter-domain calls between domains/servers with the same names.

  • Requesting license for two different ssystem with same SID

    Hello,
    Is it possible to request 2 license for two systems with same SID. The systems are on different machines and their HW key are different but both have same SID. While requesting license, will it permit to create 2 different license with SAME SID.
    Regards
    Deb

    Hi Anil,
    The one for which the license is already requested is the main development portal with SID EP2. I have installed one local version of SAP EP with the same SID EP2. Now we need a license for the second system.
    If we change the HW key of the original license which is already applied in the main development portal under SMP and apply for a new license for the new local version, can it have any future implications, if any.
    What is the best way to deal with the situation. Is there a full proof way to change the SID of the EP system, which I can try in the local EP system.
    Regards
    Deb

  • My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?

    My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?

    If it's formatted for usage with PCs, syncing it from a Mac may be slow, it can't store files which are 4GB or larger, and its firmware can't be updated from a Mac without restoring it.

  • My Wife and Ishare the same iMac, as different users, with separate iTunes accounts. How can I share some of my playlists with her iPod?

    When I go to sync her ipod to my account, Itunes wants to remove all her tunes, before it will install the ones she wants from mine. She wants to keep what she already has on it. How can we do this?

    Hello durantophone,
    This can be done by putting the iPod into 'manual mode.' You'll want to enable this with the iPod connected while in her account.

  • Multiple users with different Ipods on same computer

    My household has one general computer that is used by myself and my two teenage daughters. We don't use separate logins because it is used mostly to just go online, check our email, and use Itunes along with updating our Ipods. This works fine for us except that we have different Ipods. My girls have the Ipod Mini's and I have the Ipod (with video screen).
    My question is this: Can one computer (running WinXPProSp2)authorize two different Ipods under the same user name? Also, can two (or three) different Ipods be "authorized" on the same computer?

    Yes, your not really authorizing ipods, you just authorize a PC to play songs you buy from iTUnes. Once its authorized all ipods can play the song that connect to it.
    You can separate the music that is loaded to each iPod (Like your music only added to your ipod and your girls ipods only updating there music to there ipods) By creating your own playlist and setting the ipod to update them. This is covered more here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
