Help using multiple iphones and ipods on itunes

Okay, is there any simple way to use multiple apple products thru itunes. I can log in on my account and sync my iphone/ipod, then I log out and log back in with my daughter's account info. I plug her itouch in and it wants to read all of my apps(some apps we both have on our devices). Have problems with music sharing as well. Still a PC user. Get very frustrated with itunes. spend way too much time trying to do things that should be simple. please help! Thank you!

Are you using method 1 with different windows user accounts?

Sounds like you are currently using method 2 and not happy with it.

Can someone help? Multiple Iphones and Ipods in the house- download issues!

Can someone please tell me if you can use one computer for multiple I-product downloads? For example, my daughter has an Ipod and downloads from Itunes on my computer. I also have an Ipod and Iphone, and want to use my computer to download my photos and upload from I-tunes. Are we both able to use the same computer? And if not, why not?

Yes. Each device is different and is recognized as such.

Yes, you can have as many devices - iPhones, iPods, iPads - as you like using the same iTunes account.

HT1386 How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

Yes, I do have multiple devices and it appeared to me that every time I tried to sync or log onto iTunes, the password was incorrect. Consequently, I was and am constantly changing it. Wouldn't it be nice if Apple would simply say that you only need one Apple ID and one password regardless of the number of Apple devices you intend to sync via iTunes.
Barring the above, how about a way to merge all of the Apple IDs and passwords into one.

I have continuously over the last 6 months struggled with syncing my iphone and ipod with itunes The app continually crashes during the picture import. AND by the way it takes 10-15 minutes before it even attempts to import photos. The screen says importing photoes but doesnt try to optimize or anything for 10 minutes. I have a 3gs with 16Gb so its not a cheap phone. I have 10Gb free. I have 6600 photoes. This is very frustrating and undermines my confidence in your products. My ipod is an ipod 4 with 16Gb also. It does the exact same thing to it. The last time, I had to import photoes a few at the time and with it taking 10-15 minutes each time for 6600 photos it is a long frustrating process. But it will import every photo a few at a time. The error message is just that itunes has stopped working. no hint as to why. AND of course, my phone is out of use for the entire time. You guys must not want to believe ur phones are a necessary tool...or maybe you dont want the consumer to believe it is. I have tried to find solutions on your website as well as through other 3rd party communities. Ultimately they were of no use. I stumbled onto my solution by accident since Im a bit of a computer geek...a semi-geek.

I have this issue too, I went into my Windows event viewer. (should have looked at this a year ago when this started)
it said this

basically whenever I try to sync my ipod touch 4G 64GB it crashes iTunes when it begins the pictures. if im lucky ill get 4-5 on there before it stops responding. its not my system or anything im running win7x64 8GB DDR3 ram (Corsair XMS3) AMD FX Eight core processor.
It is silly that iTunes cannot add pictures to apple devices. it shatters whatever incline I may have to buy apple products. knda like the Airport Extreem router my dad bought the new firmware, caused my router to not function... why release firmware that breaks a product. -_- <-- off topic but still

Newbie - Be gentle - Using multiple computers and IPods

I have 3 kids wanting to use my computer and a separate computer at their other parents' house for ITunes. Can this be done? How? We have already had problems with ITunes erasing songs from one computer etc. Any help appreciated.

you need to set up the ipods for manual synching go to edit>prefernces iPod tab. This way you can add music from either PC without deleting what is on the iPod

Can't update the software on my iPhone and iPod on iTunes

I know I've seen other topics about this problem, but I can't figure out what's wrong or how to fix it. Every time I connect my iPhone or iPod iTunes asks me if I would like to download and install the new software available for my devices, but it won't let me. It says that iTunes can't connect with the iPod software update server because I'm not connected to the internet. If someone could please help me to figure this out would be awesome.

The solution to this problem is described by this Apple support article:

Using multiple iPhone's on one iTunes account

Hello, im not sure if this has been asked, i had a quick look but couldnt get a 100% answer.
My wife and i have 2 iPhones using one iTunes account, both have been updated to iOS5. We both can use iCloud and all the new features of iOS5.
When both iPhone's were set up i sent an iMessage to one of my contacts, they recieved the message and replied, the reply came in and was recieved on both iPhones. I know you can turn off in settings on the iPhone that i do not want to recieve the reply to but in doing so i will turn off iMessage on that iPhone.
On my iPhone i set up iCloud with my default iTunes email, and my wifes set up a new @me account. This has over come the problem of using Find My Friends App, so now she can have her own account.
Now if her contacts do not have her @me email in thier contact for her, she will not be able to utilise iMessage from iPhone to iPhone. Then comes the issue with making purchases on her iPhone as she is logged in under her @me, but purchases must be made with my email account so i can also have the purchases. Now your prob saying just log into my account when making purchases, but if she does iCloud won't work due to the app was not purchased using the same email address.
All i want to be able to do is use 2 iPhones on one iTunes account, be able to have seperate Find My Friends set up, both be able to have each others purchases, both use iMessage to each other and friends, both use seperate iCloud accounts.
If i am doing something wrong please let me know, or if you know how to do it.
My other theory is, i have added a different @me account to my iTunes account, could i set her iPhone up using this account, seeing that this one is linked to my original acount?

The Apple account used for iCloud can be different than that used by the App Store. In other words, your wife can use her own iCloud account and use your Apple ID for the App Store and thus you can share apps. To change the App Store ID, go to Settings/Store and tap on the Apple ID. Then tap Sign out, then log back in using you Apple ID.

Help with Updating Iphone and Ipod after updating Apple ID

I just updated my email/Apple Id and unable to login to my App store or anything on my Iphone or my Ipod what do I need to do to get this corrected? Please HELP!!

Help with multiple iPhones and Apple ID!

I have my iPhone 5S and my iPad Mini hooked up to my Apple ID. I recently gave my friend my old iPhone 4 for his birthday and it is also using my Apple ID. Whenever he changes/deletes the contacts in his phone, it changes mine. Is there any way to stop this but still allowing him to keep using my Apple ID?

No, not unless one of you stops syncing contacts with iCloud. When you share an iCloud account, all devices see the same data and any actions taken on one device is mirrored on all the others.

Help using multiple computers and one shared external drive

I just "bought" the new LR / PS combo special. I have 3 computers, 2 PC's in seperate cities and a laptop that I use on the road. I would like to use an external hard drive as the main drive. This way I could take the drive with me.
2 Questions....First I tried to learn the basics using the internal hard drive on PC#2. I then set up a external drive with multiple folders but within one main folder. I then started importing to the external drive using PC#2 (which is at my vacation property). Everything went smooth until I tried to import from that external drive, It does not open that catalog. I am saving them as digital negatives.
Question #2 which I have not tried yet is PC#1 which is my main home computer does not have LR. I have years of photos in hundreds of files sorted in bridge that have to be renamed and put on the hard drive. It does not have the latest version of PS and I have lots of money invested in plug ins. How can I get lightroom on that computer and will it talk to what I believe is the prior version of photoshop. I don't even want to think about all the plug ins.
It's pretty clear that I am lost. I was going to continue using bridge and PS but there is no bridge on the new version, at least not on the $9.99 special. From what I've seen, LR is the way to go.
HELP

Sync multiple iPhones and iPod Touch's to one PC

I am going to have one iPhone 4 32GB and two iPod Touch 8GB's with one PC. I read up on how to sync different playlists to each device. However, I am unclear on how to sync different Apps to each device. The iPods I will have are much smaller capacities, so I know I won't be able to have all of my apps + music on them. How to you limit which Apps go to a Sync'd device?

Basically the same way you sync different playlists, by checkmarking what you want to go onto the device, but you do it through the Apps tab.
Regards.

It has the error range of 3000's which states
Errors 3000-3999 (3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, an old version of iTunes is installed, an entry in your hosts file redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see error 1004 above), or because of your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try without using one or with a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues. Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again. Error 3194 most likely indicates you do not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes.

connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
also see How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

Nope. Both require iTunes on a computer to sync music from.
Unless the iPod is an iPod Touch and the music was bought from iTunes. In which case the Touch can simply go to the iTunes App, under Purchased and download the purchased songs for free.
