How do i have an ipod touch and an ipad sync to the same pc?

how do i have an ipad and an ipod touch sync on the same computer but they have different apps on them?
i knopw it is possible but i just dont no how to do it. as my ipod touch is only 8gb and my ipad is 16gb so everything off the ipad is making the ipod slow as it has only 8gb memory,
thanks,

When you connect each device and select them on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, then on the right-hand side you can select what to sync to that device e.g. which apps via the Apps tab, music via the Music tab etc. Those selections for each device should be remembered each time you re-connect the device, so you shouldn't have to go through the selection process each time (unless you want to change what you want to sync).

  • Can I sync an ipod touch and an ipad separately to the same laptop

    I have an ipod touch and an ipad. Can I sync them to my computer so that each remains independant of the other. When I first attached the ipad to my computer the option to start as a new ipad or sync from my ipod's content were available. I did neither and just ejected the ipad. I guess my question is: if I choose to start as a new ipad will it wipe out the data from my ipod touch or will it create a new backup?

    I have three iDevices that I sync to one iTunes library and each device has its own unique content.
    If you are Windows - launch iTunes and go to Edit>Prefernces>Devices. Check the box at the bottom that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones, etc. ... From syncing automatically, click ok. Quit iTunes.
    Connect either of your devices to your computer and launch iTunes again. Click on the device name on the left side under the devices heading, now go into each and every tab of iTunes and select the content that you want to sync to that particular device. When you are done, click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes. iTunes will remember what you selected for that device the next time that you sync,
    Eject your device, connect the other one and do the same thing. If you want -- turn auto sync back on using the procedure outlined above.

  • I have an iPod touch and an iPad on the same apple account.  If I purchase the same album on both devices without syncing will I be charged twice?

    Yes. You're supposed to move it to the second device from the computer and not redownload it from the iTunes Store.

  • How can u have lock rotation off and mute feature off at the same time

    How can u have lock rotation off and mute feature off at the same time

    Maybe this will help. The link at the bottom is the same one that was posted above.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.
