Downloading songs from another pc

I have made a playlist on my pc at home and now I am travelling through South-America for four months. I want to download some new music to my iPod without losing the music that is already on my iPod. How should I do this? When I plug my iPod into a pc in an internetcafe I am asked the following question:
¨The iPod Anton is linked to another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to the other music library and exchange all the existing songs and playlists by the ones in this library?¨
I fear that I will loose the songs on my iPod if I answer YES to this question. Can somebody tell me how to succeed in downloading new songs and keeping my current songs and playlists?
Much thanx in advance!
Greetings,
Anton

Is it possible to download songs from another computer?

I have a new ipod shuffle that i just got it recently. I dont have internet connection currently because I'm travelling. Is it possible to download songs from another computer. My main computer would be my laptop.

Yes but it would probably overwrite the songs currently on your iPod when it syncs to the new computer.

Downloading songs from another computer

my home computer's CD drive wont allow me to copy songs from CDs. Now i am at my brothers house and i cannot link to his without erasing all of my songs. is there any way to get this music onto my ipod?

Not really, the Shuffle works differently from other iPods and is designed to be linked to only one computer. What is wrong with your CD drive?

How do i download songs from my itunes account to wifes ipod nano?

How do download songs from my itunes account to my wifes ipod nano with her own account?

To what iTunes library is the nano normally synced? The iTunes library you use (i.e. all tracks are in a single iTunes library). An iTunes library in a different user account on that same computer? Another computer? We need to know your setup and scenario before we can offer intelligent advice.

Whenever I try to download songs from iTunes store I get an error message

I just got my Ipod and when I tried to download songs from the iTunes store I just got an error message, but it took my money. A sample message read,
"There was a problem downloading 'I Walk the Line/ With His Hot and Blue Guitar/ Johnny Cash"
The file seems to be corrupted. To redownload file, choose "Check for Purchases" from the Store menu.
I tried the "Check for Purchases" several times, but I just got the same message. I then went to the Downloads menu/page where another message was displayed under Status,
zero KB of 2.6 MB - stopped (err = -100008)
Please help me. I don't want to have wasted my money for nothing.

Hi ...
Might be a Wi-Fi issue...
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Now restart the iPad.
Restart your device: Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

I would like to purchase an ipod for my husband. Can I download songs from my itunes library to his ipod without disturbing my itunes?

Yes Deborah,
Actually it's as smiple as plugging in the iPod and registering it, this will be done by a step by step dialog box when you first plug it in. After that it will show up in your device list on the left side. Just drag the song from the music library in iTunes to the iPod device that is his. You can drag single songs, complete albums or even complete genres. If it is a iTouch you get him, you can also click the music tab on the iTouch device in iTunes when you plug it in and you can just check off artist names or just certain albums. Also on a iTouch on the summary screen you can click the sync with iTouch over Wi-Fi check box and you will no longer have to plug it to the computer to sync. Also, since they are two different devices the music on one will not affect the music on another. This goes for any iOS device, iPods, iTouches, iPhones, and iPads.
Hope that helps.

Downloaded song from cloud. Icon changed from cloud to downloaded

I downloaded one of my purchased songs to my computer. The cloud icon disappeared from next to the track. The song accidentally got deleted. Went to the purchased section of iTunes and the song had "Downloaded" next to it instead of the cloud icon that was next to the remaining non-downloaded songs from the album. I can't re-download the song and it also doesn't play from the cloud anymore. Any suggestions on how to get access to the song again?

Thanks for your prompt reply. I did all of that, but it says another user/password is required to play the song. I know that user and he probably did indeed download the song on to my MAC when he was here.
So I checked, and there are other songs he downloaded but they do not flag the user/password requirement.
What I don't understand is how I was able to play the song in question from my library and subsequently download it onto my ipod with no problems until yesterday.
Again, what changed?

Can I download songs from iTunes used for my 80GB to a shuffle?

I want to know if I buy a shuffle can I download songs from my iTunes for my 80GB iPod? Will it mess anything up trying to download to the two separate devices? Also, can I upload my playlist from my 80GB iPod to another computer and then download from that computer to a shuffle?
Thanks,
tim

In the simplest terms, one PC/Mac, many iPods.
Many PCs/Macs, then you must use manual mode.
The exception being the Shuffles. They only work with one machine at a time.

As King Penguin alluded to earlier:
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 (e.g., ringtones), 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.

I "downloaded" songs from my CD, but they do NOT show up in my iTunes "Songs". Tried it two times = zero, what's up?

TS3297 I have an iPhone and recently bought an iPod 4 touch what l am using the same apple ID for. The iPod won't let me download songs from iTunes it is asking me security questions which I don't think I have put answers to in the first place.

It's probably asking you to verify the security code found on the back of your credit card.

Downloading songs from two different computers?

Can you just download music from another computer on you iphone or would that just mess everything up?

The iphone can only download music from one computer at a time.
If you connect the iphone to a second computer and download music, it will erase all the music from the first computer.
However, if you have music on 2 computers that you wont to combine into one itunes music library, this article might help out.

Also, if the music you want to combine is purchased music from the itunes music store, this article might help out.
