How do you add a device to your itunes account

I am trying to add an old inactive iphone to my itunes account to use for my kids as an itouch type device. Itunes says you can have up to ten devices on one account but when I try to add a device it wants to sync it with my current iphone.

First :
Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan
Then restore the iPod to factory settings/new iPod on the computer your kids will use:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
If you are using the same computer

    i can not figure out how to download a device to my apple account.

    If you want a device or computer to show in the 'manage devices' section then the page that you posted from tells you how e.g. use iTunes Match on it, use automatic downloads on it, or redownload past purchases from the account - it should then appear in 'manage devices'

  • How do I add a device to my iTunes account?

    I just got an iPhone 5S and I have an existing iTunes account from my iPod.  I went into mange devices on iTunes but  I only see the option of deleting a device, not adding.  So how do I add one then?

    Hi, Colbly. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You would just need to sign into your Apple ID through Settings > iTunes & App Store to associate your device to your Apple ID.  This will give you access to all your previous purchases made with your Apple ID.  You may be asked to answer your security questions as an authentication method on new purchases with the device.

  • How do i add a device to a itunes account we already have?

  • How do I add another device to my iTunes account?

    I recently upgraded from the iPhone 3G to the iPhone 4 and I want to take the iPhone 3G off of my iTunes account and add the iPhone 4 to it. I can't figure it out. My main thing is that I want the iPhone 4 on, I don't care as much if the iPhone 3G stays.
