Help with new ipod

Can i download songs from my computers on itunes & go to a differnet computer with different songs & download the songs from my ipod to the itunes & reupload all the songs from the 2nd computer & the songs from my computer?

Hi!
As a general rule you can't load from ipod to computer only from computer to ipod. You should have iTunes on one of your computers with your complete library and that's what you will use to sync with your ipod. With that being said there are some ways around this...I have not used them but you can search on the forum for sure they are mentioned...

  • Need help with new iPod (kind of kong)

    I have a 2nd generation iPod mini with 4GB of music in an outdated iTunes version 5 I think.
    I just bought an 80GB iPod classic, and want to know how to go about installing it and putting the music on.
    1. Should I uninstall iTunes and then download the newest one, then put all of my music into iTunes that I want on the new iPod?
    2. Or just update old iTunes and plug in the 80GB one.
    I am not really tech savvy so any help is appreciated! =)

    Just update iTunes to the latest version, connect your new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions to register and name it. It will connect to iTunes and prompt you to automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like. You can leave it at manual update or choose to sync music - selected playlists.

  • ITunes help with new iPod to replace old iPod

    I have a new iPod 80GB Classic the I purchased to replace the stolen iPod I had before. Is there anything I have to do to connect it to my current iTunes so I can get all my songs from my current iTunes Library?
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Nope, dock it to iTunes, register it, & follow the subsequent instructions.

  • Need help with new ipod nano

    Wonder if anyone could help I had the 3rd generation nano and I have just purchased the fifth generation model. Am I able to plug it into my computer and it will link with my i tunes library even though it was previously linked to the 3rd gen model?
    Sorry if this sounds like a daft question.

    You can sync as many iPods as you want to any given iTunes library. iTunes will recognize each one as unique with its own settings.
    Best of luck.

  • Need Help Getting New iPod Classic to work on system with existing iPods

    I have an iPod shuffle (for workouts) and an iPod photo 60GB which I have had for some time. I have iTunes 8.
    Got a new iPod Classic 120 GB for Father's Day - I cannot get it to work with iTunes yet. Plugged it in and nothing happened. iTunes just acted normal, no setup assistant, nothing. Going to reboot and see if it does the same thing, but in the meantime I am hoping someone here can advise.
    Thanks in advance,
    jf

    Turns out, of all things, it was the cable - seems the 'old' cable does not work with new iPods, but the newer cable that comes with Classics works with everything - cable was updated somehow, per Apple.
    Thanks,
    jf

  • Need help with my ipod nano

    Hi,
    I need help with my ipod nano.
    I haven't turned it on in a while and suddenly it stops working when I try to turn it on again.
    Sometimes it displays:
    "www.apple.com/support/ipod"
    And right now it's displaying "OK to disconnect".
    Could somebody please advice what should I do?
    Thank you

    I need help.
    I have my IPOD nano for a while now and about a week ago. My husband bought one for his newphew and he had me download all the songs into the new IPOD (2nd Generation). Now Im having problems with mine. Everytime I try to charge and usually the screen will pop up to my original music player. This is what it says now when I open or charge my IPOD.
    "The File iTunes Library.it! cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes".
    Now, that I listen to it...all the music skip. Please help me..what should I do??
    Thank you

    Andrew,
    The iPod and iTunes are not compatible with Windows ME and the minimum requirements are Windows 2000 with SP4 or XP with SP2 (although I use several iPods and don't have SP2).
    If you can't upgrade to one of these, then you can use the iPod with ME if you are prepared to fiddle around a little. However, you won't be able to use iTunes.
    See this.
    Guide to iPod and Windows ME
    You can use iPods purchased in the USA here in the UK. Our family uses 3 such iPods.
    You can also use the iPod on any number of computers as this document explains.
    Using iPod with multiple computers
    Whoever gave you you all this wrong info deserves to be shot!
    Just one more thing Andrew. Please start your own topic in future instead of jumping in an interrupting someone else's with an unrelated query. It's know here as "threadjacking" and is against the discussions Terms of Use.
    Good luck with ME!

  • HT1222 hey  i need help with my ipod, i try to download facebook app and it wouldn't let me because it say ios 4.1 require and i dont have ios how do i get it ?

    What generation of iPod touch do you have? If you don't know, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
    If you have an first-generation iPod touch, it can only go to iOS 3.1.3 and hence will not run the Facebook app. If you have a second-generation iPod touch, see:

  • HT1329 hi i need help with my ipod nano i want to get my music from my ipod to i tunes so that i can be able to transfer the music on my i tunes to my ipad mini can you help me with that ?

    hi i need help with my ipod nano i want to transfer my music from the ipod to the itunes so that i can be able to transfer the music to my ipad can you help me with that ?

    You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like"iPod transfer," you should get some links.  (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
    Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your iTunes library, and then sync your iPad.

    Purchased DVD in US for Cdn viewing. Digital download will not work in Cda or US? please help with new Digital code that will work

    You will need to contact the movie studio that produced the DVD and ask if they can issue you a new code valid for Canada. Apple cannot help you, and everyone here in these forums is just a fellow user.

  • Why earphone without mic with new iPod Touch 4g?

    I am die-hard fan of Apple products. Have recently bought iPod Touch 4th Gen. But failed to understand why did Apple ship micless-earphones with new iPod Touch?
    iPod Touch 3rd Gen used to have earphone with mic and remote buttons.
    I know, new iTouch has inbuilt mic, but since mic & volume controls are missing on earphones, I can't talk wih my handsfree! just because the mic is on iTouch panel.
    Disappointed!!
    Any chances for Apple to get this earphone replaced for new iPod Touch owner?

    You can purchase the headphones with mic here:

  • Altec InMotion . . . will it work with newer iPods?

    Got my iPod stolen. I had the old 60 or 80 gig monochrome screen white iPods. try to find them on eBay but it shows every iPod ever made and don't know how to specify the one I have.
    Getting a new one, apart from being unnecessary, is all my peripherals (inMotion speakers and iTalk) and i don't know if they will work with newer iPods.
    On inMotion since that's what I use the most, although the size of the "hole" is big like the older iPods the actual connector seems like it might just fit into the newer iPods. Online Altec says it fits various iPods but I have no way of knowing if it's my same unit they're referring to or a new one.
    Also, if anyone knows how you identify that earlier iPod (bought in 03-04) for eBay searches, I've gone through pages and haven't found a single one like mine.
    thanks

    P.S. It had the track wheel on the bottom and it was either 60 or 80 gigs. Bought in Fall 2004.
    thanks

  • My friend needs help with her ipod

    My friend needs help with her Ipod. Here's what happened. She connected her Ipod to a casette adapter and the ipod just froze. She started doing the reset but to no avail. What do you think cause this? She really needs help so if anyone can suggest what to do that would be greatly appreciated.
    I don't specifically know her ipod but I think that it is the Ipod 30gb.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    She needs to reset her iPod by holding down Menu and Select for 6-10 seconds...
    Resetting iPod
    It may take several attempts. The above link also has "tips" if the iPod does not seem to be resetting.
    If she has tried many times, along with the "tips" and the iPod still won't reset, then she will have to wait for the iPod's battery to die and then she can charge it back up and it should work fine. The iPod should reset though.

  • Serious trouble with new iPod - maybe you can help?

    Please help if you can. 15 hours into troubleshooting this and I am desperate!!!
    I just purchased a new 5th-gen, 60GB ipod. I already have a 1st gen, 10GB iPod. My old iPod is presently working great with no problems.
    The new iPod, however, is not being recognized by my computer or by iTunes. And when I try to plug it in, iTunes freaks. It will stop playing music and freeze on me.
    Here is what happened:
    1. I knew I had the latest iTunes & iPod software on my computer, so rather than running the CD that came with the iPod, I just plugged in the iPod.
    2. When I did so, the computer recognized it as a new device and attempted to (I assume - not sure) install a driver for a while. This went on for about an hour, something seemed wrong, so I disconnected the iPod.
    3. At this point, connecting it always has the same behavior. It flashes "don't disconnect". ITunes freezes. Windows Explorer does not recognize or acknowledge its existence.
    Here is what I have tried to do:
    1. I first tried installing from the CD. This installed an older version of iTunes on my computer. This did not help matters and stopped my current iPod from working.
    2. I troubleshooted this and managed to fix my old iPod by uninstalled all iTunes and iPod versions from my computer and reinstalling all of the latest bits.
    3. I have doublechecked my USB ports to ensure they are USB 2.0.
    4. I have tried restarting my iPod in file mode to see if the computer will recognize it then. No dice.
    5. I have tried an iPod reboot, obviously.
    6. I have restarted my computer innumerable times.
    My gut says this is a driver issue, but I'm not remotely qualified to troubleshoot that. Can anyone help?

    Hey, I've got a few questions for you. 1. What kind of computer are you using? (ie: laptop, desktop, whatever else there is..) 2. Have you ever had the 5th Gen. working on you're computer? 3. Have you tried you're 5th Gen. on another computer which, in the past, has detected an iPod?
    Done with questions for now I believe. Here's my story. My girlfriend got her iPod (5th Gen.) in April and right when she got it, she hurried over to my house because she's "technologically incompetant". Booted up my Alienware (now an artifact after being purchased new around 1998-2000) and installed all the gadgets just like the instructions said. After finishing all that, I slapped the iPod into a USB2.0 port and WindowsXP detected, found, and installed the driver for the iPod. I used iTunes to put about 500MB's of songs on there then sent her off with her new WORKING (at the moment) iPod. A few weeks later, I guess when she killed the battery, she tells me that her iPod isnt working.
    Long story short...
    She's using a brand new Dell Inspiron [some number and letters here] laptop computer with WindowsXP.
    I did everything exactly as you had described in your first post. Few things are different, her computer has never detected the iPod, WindowsXP never found or installed a driver. When her iPod is plugged into her computer, the iPod either brings up a little battry with a lightening bolt (like it's charging) or brings up the "Do Not Disconnect" screen. After a few hours of leaving it like that and I unplug the iPod, it hastn't gained any charge. I checked to make sure everything, ie: plug and play, were all working correctly and all that good stuff; however, one thing phases me. I took her iPod back to my house and tried it on the computer that had the player working before. After a minute of plugging it in, it was detected and I could add or remove songs using iTunes, in other words: IT WAS WORKING.
    I would like to see some kind of solution to our problem (which I believe to be the same) so that I don't have to drive an hour away to the only iPod (Mac) store around to replace it (luckily it is still on the warranty).
    If you make any progress, please let me know.
    Thanks.
