Help!  Can't sync due to itunes says my ipod is already synced with another

I deleted and reinstalled i-tunes. Now, when I try to sync, it says my i-pod is synced with another computer. How do I get it to recognize this as the only computer that it is synced with?

Assuming that everything on the iPod is still in your iTunes library, just go ahead and let it re-sync the iPod and now it will be associated with the new library.
Is there anything on the iPod that you do not have safely stored on your computer?

  • IPOD can't be loaded on ITunes, say's that it's registered with another Itu

    I just got a new IPOD, 30GB with Video and I sync'd with one of my computers that had some of my songs on it. When I went to sync it with my laptop it wouldn't load my ipod stating that it was registered with another Itunes.
    Any ideas?

    You can't "sync" that is automatically update an iPod from multiple libraries or computers. If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.

    OR if I cannot update to software 3.0, how can I find apps that will work just for my ipod touch?

    It sounds like you have a 1G iPod Touch, in which case you can only upgrade to iOS version 3.1.  Here is a link to purchase the update.

  • Why when I try to re download my music it says this device is already associated with another device and I have so many days to re download my music back? How do I get around this and get my music back?

    It is telling you that the device has been associated with another Apple ID. Once an Apple ID has been associated with a device, there is a 90-day waiting period before another Apple ID can be associated with that device. Here is a Support Article that explains the 90-day waiting period:

    It says "this device is already associated with another apple ID" and it will not download previous purchases. This is a new iPad 4 as my last iPad 4 was stolen. How can I fix this issue, can I fix this issue?

    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset and Erase all Content
    This returns the iPad to its original state then setup the iPad as new.

  • Can iDS sync with another IDAP server database?

    if i use iDS 5.1 to be a backup server and sync with another LDAP server (Master).The iDS can suppport?
    or need another tools to connect those servers?
    my master server is using:
    Fujitsu InfoDirectory Ver.1.0.9
    thanks
    epee

    hi Kesa_Kara
    you're correct.
    I would do the migration in two steps:
    - migrate the collection from domain1 to domain2 on a dedicated TFS server with no other collections and no users added to TFS.
    -  after verifying the correctness of the migration, detach the TFS collection from this dedicated TFS server, backup and restore the collection database to final SQL Server and than attach the collection on the final TFS server

  • HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

    I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to.  My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean.  I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs.  I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded.  Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod???  Thanks

    Umm.  If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.

  • My itunes erroneously says that my ipod is synced with another computer when I try to sync. What can I do to fix this?

    First, right after updating my iTunes to the latest version, my iTunes will not display album covers. It says exactly "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer." It has never been an issue before, but, anyway... that is where it all started.
    Then I read a bunch of Apple Support topics on the subject, and it directed me to replace my library file with a previous library file. So, I did, and now, not only will my albums not display, but my iPod Touch will not sync with my computer, the only computer I have ever used it on. It says that the ipod is synced with another library and asks me if I want to erase and sync (I have my music on my computer, but I will lose all of my apps and such).
    What can I do to resolve this? Thanks for the help.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    All media content will be erased during the first sync, but you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How can i transfer my music from iphone to itune. currently itune wouldnt allow this as i have also used my ipad? the message i get it says: the iphone is synced with another itunes library. do you want to erasethis iphone and sync with this itune?

    apple..... ypu sale these gadgets which i love but I dont want to earse the music on my iphone i would like to save them into my library, how can i do this? most of the music i have bought and i dont want to loose any of it!!!
    Please someone help me.

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer
