How do I set up multiple ipods on one itunes account?

I know it's possible as I've done it before but I've forgotten how to do it, can anyone help please? :-(

Make sure each iPod has a unque name and just connect the iPods to the computer one at a time. Check the apps and other items that you want synced to each iPod. Also see:

How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

How to update software on multiple iPhones using same iTunes account?

Here are more details on my situation which should help clarify things...
I purchased three iPhone 4 models back when they first came out (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library. The problem is (as I understand it) that I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct without wiping out the separate contact lists, etc. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates and still be able to manage separate contact lists, etc. If I go this route, I assume we will lose all the apps on phones #2 and #3 that we have been "sharing"... correct? Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, one of you can help me??
we have 2 iphone 4's synced to the same itunes account for apps and music since the day we bought them, but each has a different icloud acct. they have both been updated on the same itunes account with every update that has come out since we bought them in december of 2010. nothing on either phone has ever been lost or duplicated. having said all that, maybe i'm missing something here, but we have had no problems. we do have itunes setup to sync manually. i do believe i'm a piker compared to lawrence finch, but i'm just telling you what happens in my house. maybe check with apple? is there a store near you?

Can/how do i use a 2nd ipod with same itunes account? please help

I dont use itunes/ipod. My husband is in Afghanistan and he would like me to buy him a 2nd ipod perhaps a nano so i can download his music and send that 2nd one to him.
I dont know much of this but when i connect the new ipod nano to his itunes, wont it erase all his itunes? i somehow remember something about the itunes synchs to what is on the ipod (which would be nothing on this new one).
any direction will help as i only have a small window to do/send this to him within the next days.

There are a bunch of ways to pick what you want to sync to his nano. When you plug in the nano, if you make sure the device on the left panel in iTunes, on the main panel you'll see a bunch of tabs in which you can select what is synced. Click on the "Music" tab and you'll see that you can pick playlists, artists, or genres.
The first option, playlists, is a very common technique. You create a playlist in iTunes ("File" - "New playlist") and then drag-and-drop music that you want to put on the nano into that playlist (and make sure you select this new playlist in that "Music" tab described in the previous paragraph).

Setting Up Multiple iPhones On One iTunes Account

Our business supplies iPhones to our technicians out in the field and I've set each phone up under the same iTunes account.
Can someone please help me out on the below things that I need to be able to manage?
I need to be able to back up each iPhone to the work iTunes account on a regular basis, so that I can restore the data if needed. (Windows pc)Is this just a matter of plugging the phones in and setting up as a new iPhone and giving each one a individual name (tech 1, tech 2 etc)? I know it will mean that they'll loose all data and I'll have to set each one up again.
I would like it if each of the phones can share any apps purchased (music is not used but some productivity apps have and will be purchased)
I need to ensure that none of the phones share any user sensitive data (messages etc)
I had a massive issue with all the phones recently - They were duplicating iMessages accross all the technicians phones.
I've rectified this by disabling iMessages, but is there some way i can allow them to have iMessage without all the phones (which are on the same work iTunes account) duplicating messages or any other user sensitive data?
Thanks in advance!

Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers. I have made substantial changes to improve readability and syntax.

Multiple iPods on one Itunes account

I have had an iTunes account on my laptop for years, and have it currently hooked in withan iTouch.
My fiance just recently bought a new iPod, and I am wondering if I can hook her new iPod to my laptop w/ the iTunes account, and not ruin anything?
Also, she is about to buy a new laptop, so if she can put music on her new iPod from my iTunes account, when she puts her new iPod on the new laptop, will it wipe it off?
Thanks for your help in advance.

I need specific directions on how to set up 2 iPads to same iTunes account.

I need specific directions on how to set up 2 iPads to 1 iTune account. I want both iPads to receive some things alike - calendar, contacts, etc. I want same book on both but to open to correct page for each iPad reader. Games on both but levels for each iPad user.

It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
It sounds as if you have already found the method to change your card details, but just to confirm: go to the iTunes Store. Click 'Account' under 'Quick links' at the right. Log in.
Where it says 'Payment Information' click on 'Edit' to the right of it.
You should then be able to enter the correct card details.
Is this not working? Do you get an error message?

Multiple ipods with 1 itunes account

I have a 30gb iPod that I have for a couple years and use it with itunes.
I just purchased a iPod shuffle and want to use the same itunes account to put the same music on my iPod shuffle.
Can i do this?
When I connect the iPod shuffle, it says it needs to be upgraded but I dont want to do anything to mess up itunes.
Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can sync as many iPods as you want. I sync between two and four, depending on what I'm using my various iPods for (yes, it's an addiction...). iTunes will recognize each device as unique.
It sounds as if iTunes is telling you that the software on the Shuffle needs to be updated. That shouldn't affect iTunes in any way. If iTunes is telling you that iTunes needs to be updated, it still shouldn't be a problem. However, before upgrading any programs it is always wise to have a full back up of your data files.
Best of luck.

How do I sync different iPhones on the same iTunes account?

I want to be able to sync two different iPhones on the same iTunes account. I want to be able to sync different music and movies. Can that be done?

"is there anyplace I watch a tutorial for this?"
Not really. And it's not that difficult at all.
Plug it in, select it and select what you want to sync.
" An APPLE rep told me to check Sync only checked songs and videos
Manually manage music and videos"
You can do it this way but it's a lot more work.
(Apple reps are just people like you and me and don't always know everything)
"And he told me to uncheck Sync Music in the music tab"
I would not recommend this especially if syncing more than one device.
Create a playlist (or multiple) for each device.
Select the music tab and sync only the playlists you want. Then add/delete from these playlists to add/remove from the iPhone.

How do I set up multiple e-mail and iCloud accounts on an iPad?

Hello everyone,
I have just purchased an iPhone and an iPad, and have upgraded to Mavericks - and that was only a week ago, so the workings of the cloud are not overly familiar with me yet.
I have just discovered to my dismay that unlike my iMac and Macbook, the iPad does not support accounts - or multiple users - in the Mac sense, although looking at the manual and the forums I believe it might be possible to do things another way, but all the postees have more experience of the devices and the cloud than I do.
What am I trying to get the iPad to do?
My use is fairly mixed, but mostly web browsing and music and some Apple TV. I do not have my regular e-mail address joined to the cloud, and don’t want to, as nearly all my e-mails are work based, and I don’t want those on a private device. My new iCloud e-mail address will do for friends at some point.
My wife surfs the web, uses e-mail, and Facebook. She would like all her content private, so I would expect some sort of password usage, or signing in and out of iCloud, or at least certain aspects of it like Mail. I’m not bothered about mine being kept private, and I expect my usage to be light. She does not have an Apple id or iTunes account.
I know you can put more than one e-mail address on there, and the menu on the iPad suggests I can add more than iCloud account?
Unfortunately, this is all a bit of a jigsaw puzzle and I feel I’m missing a few pieces.
Can some kind soul tell me if what I want to achieve is possible, and if it is, I would really appreciate an idiot’s guide on how to achieve this.
Many thanks in advance.

Now I feel kind of stupid, or maybe I need new glasses. I did not see the get an new account link, just kept going back into my primary account. Thank you for your time and help.

How do I back up multiple iphones to one itunes account

I'm sure this is possible, I've seen it where there are numerous back ups listed on itunes for different devices, and how you can hover over each to see the IMEI and serial number etc.
All my devices have the same apple ID and I have a PC with windows 8.
I backed up an iphone 5s back in February. Now I want to back up this iphone 6 that I have borrowed from work so I can restore this one on to my own new iphone 6 if that makes sense. But when I connect the borrowed iphone it just asks me do I want to restore it from the 5s back up or as a new device like this:
If I press new phone will it reset everything that is already on the phone I borrowed? Or will it then allow me past this screen so i can set up a separate back up?
