How do I use 2 different ipods on the same itunes sofyware

I have a 5th generation (I think) ( plays videos and is 60g.This is the software that is installed on computer. My friends has a nano but no cumputer. Can I use the same software to put songs on her nano.Will her nano work on my software ,will it screw things up, what are the risks involved

so it's ok for you and your wife to share but not kiser and his friend with no computer ?
Correct.
seems weird that 2 people cannot share a computer, what about roomates and 1 computer ?
No one is saying they can't share a computer. I'm saying they can't share copyrighted material such as digital music on a portable device.
so if anyone wants to buy an ipod they have to go out and buy a computer ????????
Not at all. They can buy the iPod and just look at it.
They could also use a family member's computer, or a friend's computer IF THEY PUT THEIR OWN MUSIC ON IT. If they own a CD, there's nothing wrong with bringing that to a friend or family member's computer and using that machine to get the CD put on their iPod.
As long as no one else but the owner of the CD puts a copy of their music on their player... no problem.
It's quite simple. You can only have music on your iPod which you presently own the original media for (CD, Record, etc.), legally purchased iTunes Music Store track, other legally purchased digital media.

Read this article to find out how to set up your computer for multiple iPods.
If you don't want to create a separate user account, you have to set up different playlists to sync with different iPods.
Hope this helps.

How do I use two ipods with the same itunes programme?

I am new to everything about ipod / itunes and I'm sure my question must have been answered somewhere on this forum - but I can't find it.
I have recently bought an ipod for my wife and have of course installed itunes on my computer. So far I've put about a dozen CDs on without problem. I am now considering buying another ipod for myself, so how do I segregate her music from mine.
I don't want her music (as she doesn't want mine) going on to my ipod when I connect it.
Also how can I group several individual songs into one album?
Any help would be most appreciated

How do I sync multiple iPods to the same iTunes Library?

How can I sync multiple iPods to the same iTunes Library?

The same way you sync just one. If y want different media on each iPod then only select the items you want synced to each iPod
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Also, I would go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says prevent iPods... for syncing automatically so that you can more easily check what you want syned

Can I have 2 different IPods on the same itunes account and computer?

I have a nano gen. 4 and a new nano 7.
Can I have them both on my itunes account and computer?
thanks

Yes. You can easily have multiple iPods on the same iTunes account on the same computer. Each iPod will show up with its name when plugged in, and each iPod can have its own set of preferences (i.e., what music, videos, photos, audiobooks, etc. to sync).
What you can't do easily is use the same iPod on multiple computers with different instances of iTunes. One instance of iTunes has to be "in charge" of an iPod.

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 can I use different presets on the same instrument?

I use Session Horns Pro with Kontakt Played in Mainstage 3.
You can choose different presets within Session Horns without having to load additional samples and take up more memory.
How can I create different patches that use the changes of Session Horn Patches without duplicating the samples in Kontakt?
If I copy the channel strip and 'Paste as alias" changes made to one copy are the same as the alias. It seems there must be a way to "Automate" controls in an alias that is unique to each patch. I could also use to do this on instruments like Vintage Clav and Vintage B3 where I don't want to create duplicate instances of CPU hungry plug ins just to use different presets in different patches.
Thanks in advance to anyone out there who knows of a workaround!

How do I use my ipod in the car without it constantly charging? I have to use a docking cable into the USB port because the 3.5 mm to 3.5mm jack I bought doesn't work on the ipod.

How do I use my ipod in the car without it constantly charging? I have to use a docking cable into the USB port because the 3.5mm to 3.5mm jack I bought doesn't work with the ipod (although it does work with an MP3 player). My ipod is a 5th generation 80GB classic.

I know this is old - but did you ever get this working. Thinking of getting a 780 ti card and I have an older mac with the mini-displayport too.

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same computer, against two different Apple IDs. When I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message?

I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same Windows 8 computer, and when I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message. Is it possible to have two different Apple IDs on the same computer?

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

Can I Use 2 iPods On The Same PC?

Hi.. I own an iPod Nano and use iTunes on my microsoft laptop. My younger brother is getting his own iPod soon and he would be using my laptop to put songs onto his iPod.
Can I Use 2 iPods On The Same PC?
& Can He Have The Same Songs As Me On His iPod? Or Are Songs Only Allowed On 1 iPod?
Many Thanks.

Hi gmsunshine,
Yes, it's possible to do this kind of thing. There are a few different methods in doing this kind of thing.
For information on what your options are, and how to manage multiple iPods using one computer, check out this Apple Knowledge Base article, here:

How do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account?

how do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account? can they share apps and music etc. I'm not very good at any tech so advise would be much appreciated.

Yes. You can sync an unlimited number of iDvies that you control to one iTunes library/account. If using the same iTunes library on the same comutr just make sure that yu go to the ap. music and other pane for the iPod in iTunes and select sycn selected items. Not the the whole library. That way each iPod can have it own contents.
