Don't know how to sync my iPod and my sisters iPhone to the same computer.

We use separate iTunes accounts. I reformatted my computer and need to sync both. My iPod says it will delete all my apps and replace it with hers if I do. Anybody know how to do this?

Here's some advice:  How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495

  • HT1386 I bought a new computer and I don't know how to sync  my ipod and the new itunes on my new computer, thanks :)

    Help please!!

    You cannot transfer from the iPhone to the computer.
    You must move the contents of your old computer to the new one directly.
    Use an external hard drive perhaps or restore your old computer backup to your new computer.
    The iPhone is not the source of your data, that is the computer, the iPhone is only a slave device to iTunes.

  • How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

    How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

    Simply connect them.  One computer with one iTunes can manage multiple devices.  They're tracked by S/N but you might wish to assign them unique names so that you can track them yourself.
    The only minor issue is app updating and purchases while on the computer.  It's necessary to log out and back in to the "correct" ID.  Much easier to do these things from the iPods.

  • My menu for "file" "tools" ,etc. has disappeared and I don't know how to get it back and keep it there at the top. Also, my e-mail (gmail) has disappeared and when I try to get a new gmail account, it doesn't "take". What to do????

    I thought that my account had been hacked and that might be the reason I could not get my 2 different e-mails. Also, at the same time this happened, I could not get into Internet Explorer. I could still get into and use Open Office during the above problems

    Thank you for the info re. the main menu. Your answer I used worked; however, the menu bar all the way across is solid black. The only way I can find out the names on the menu is to point the cursor from left to right over the black bar to find "file" "edit" tools", etc. What do I need to do to get these menu titles to be seen?
    As regarding the GMail --the menu bar used to have an envelope symbol which was white and outlined in red. That disappeared. I googled "mail.google.com" to try to get back my email. This didn't work. I then tried to get a different email address and password--after 8-19 attempts, this never worked. My other email (sbcglobal.net) has never returned. So I don't know where that went or how to get it back

    Hey zurichzurich
    Check out the article below to setup the syncing of your bookmarks to your iPhone. You could also use iCloud to sync those for you automatically.

  • Help! Going on holiday in 6 hours and I don't know how to turn my iPod off!

    Hey there,
    I'm going on holiday in 6 hours (In an aircraft) and I have an iPod Photo, and I might be stupid but, I'm paranoid about the aircraft crashing, and on top of that, I don't know how to turn my iPod 'off'
    There isn't time to make it turns itself off over 48 hours as I only have 6 >_<
    Does putting it into 'sleep' (Holding down the play/pause for a few seconds) and sliding hold have the same effect as 'off' or as good as?
    Thanks for everyone's precious time and thanks in advance!

    Thanks,
    That really helps my confidence =]

  • HT1373 So i bought music on a different computer but oAn the same itunes account and on the same ipod and when i get on my original computer and i sync my ipod my purchases that were on the other computer didnt show up. How can i put them on my computer/i

    So i bought music on a different computer but oAn the same itunes account and on the same ipod and when i get on my original computer and i sync my ipod my purchases that were on the other computer didnt show up. How can i put them on my computer/ipod

    Download them to the computer to which the iPod is synced, re-sync.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • How to Sync Multiple Iphones on the Same Computer

    Does anyone know how to Sync two different Iphones on the same computer?

    You have given almost no detail/information at all, so ti is hard to say.
    What apps? Are both iphones new? Were they synced with other computers? Same account?
    What is it that you are trying to do?
    The iphone will sync itunes content (music/apps/video) and pics with one and only one computer. If you sync to another it will first eras the content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
    You can transfer itunes purchases. Authorize the account, do not sync: File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do you manage an Ipod and Iphone on the same computer

    Hi how do you manage an Ipod and Iphone on the same computer?
    I have my ihpone but for running and cycling i also have my ipod nano, every time i connect one or the other it wipes songs that i want to keep?

    create a playlist for each device and sync only that playlist.
    i'm syncing four mobile devices to iTunes and each has its own playlist. works like a charm.

  • If you already have an iPod..Can you use an iPhone on the same computer?

    If you already have an iPod, can you use an iPhone on the same computer?

    Yes, you can sync as many iOS devices on one itunes as you like.
    Make sure to give them different names.

  • HT1386 Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    Can i sync multipler iOS devices like iPad, iPhones on the same iTunes? Can each iOS device have different contents which are subsets of the iTunes complete library

    You can share a library with as many devices as you want but they cannot have seperate subsets like you wish. They would all have access to all information in the library. You could "Manually" sync content to each device by doing the following:
    On Mac: iTunes > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    On Pc: Edit > Preferences > Devices Tab > Put a check in the box next to sentence that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically > Then click ok.
    To manually sync data from iTunes to devices see article below:

    If you do not want all devices to have access to all the media from the main library, you would need to create a library for each device. See the article below for more info:
