You can sync as many ipods/iphone/ipad as you like with one computer.
Open itunes, connect device, select what you want to sync, sync, disconnect device.
do the same for the next device.

Hi kimcinma!
Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

No, it's impossible as your iTunes Library containing your new music is on your computer, which you don't have access to.

I got a new computer, downloading iTunes and I need to know how to sync the iPod with itunes so I don't lose songs.

Can you tell me how to sync my iPOD with my new computer. I downloaded iTunes but the library is different.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

HT1296 my computer crashed and I had to reinstall itunes and now I cannot sync my ipod with my computer

My computer crashed and I had to reinstall iTunes. Now I cannot sync my iPod with my computer. Any suggestions?

Was this issue ever resolved?
Ditto for me! I am so upset because about 15 years, I've had the same old Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player which worked perfectly fine until the day Gigabeat (the software) upgraded to a Vista-compatibility program which made the MP3 go haywired!! I couldn't get the MP3 player (again) to work as normal prior to the update. Then, two years later, the business no longer supports MP3 players, nor does it invest in software patches! Now I have a failed equipment ... though it still plays, but just won't let me work the controls to choose or select tracks! I can only operate the on/off button on the Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player! AND, concidentally, the battery seems to shorten (lessen)! Interesting...
Then, I decided okay, I had enough...I can't play over 5.000 songs just to return to start; I decided to purchase the Apple iPod Classic 160 GB Silver! I've had it only since March 2012. It worked wonderfully at first. It took me months to put all the music from my CDs to this magical device. And, then, all of a sudden, my computer CRASHED (ironically in JUNE 2012!!) and lost all on the hard drive ... perhaps it is not ironic afterall.
Here's a tall quesion to Apple manufacturer, are they preparing us to confiscate our equipment? It sure seems that way to me!
No support from Toshiba (which, by the way, are currently investing in so-called "green energy in nuclear projects" in the state of Texas), nor is there any support by Apple ... Interesting! Sorry for babbling. But I'm tired of big money making corporations putting on the bluffer masks on the public! Something just ain't right! Hold tight to your vinyls, tape decks, cassettes, 8-tracks and CDs... This may be just another whim to making big time money!

How can sync the cds from my computer to my ipod?

How can I sync the cds i downloaded to my ipod?

By putting them on iTunes. After that, you can sync directly to your iPod.

I just can't sync my ipod with my computer

i just bought another ubs connecter to sync my ipod. for some reason it is not allowing to sync?

Why not? What happens when you try? Is your iPod not recognized by iTunes? If so, have you worked through each and every troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?

Household of iPhones -- How to Sync multiple iPhones with Multiple Computer

We just purchased two iPhones, one for me and one for my wife. Awesome so far, activation was a breeze, no problem getting on our wifi network. Now we're choosing what to sync. We have two computers -- one macpro for me, a powerbook g4 for my wife. We keep all of our iLife stuff on my computer (all itunes songs, all iphoto pictures, etc.). We keep our respective e-mail, contacts, and calendars on our respective computers.
How should synching work? For me, it's just my computer so no issue. But for my wife, I seem to need to sync once with my computer for music/pictures, then once with her computer for her mail/contacts/calendar. Is this possible?

Hey W.Scheinler,
It is possible to sync the phones from multiple computers, for example you can sync your music from your Mac Pro and Contacts from the Powerbook G4.
This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305741 will give more detailed information.
