How to change ipod from one computer to laptop

I got a new laptop but my ipod is synced with my old computer how do i go about this?

An iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you to try to sync it with a new one, it will erase all the current contents of the iPod and replace it with what is in the new iTunes library.
So as long as all of your iTunes content is in your new iTunes library you can go ahead and choose the Erase and Sync option when you connect your iPod or restore it.

    Hi roseabe
    Please give us more details. What kind of computer (model, speed) are you trying to transfer from and to?
    Besides, you don't hold down cmd/apple+"T" on the target computer - just the "T" key.

    Hi Erik,
    I hope your well and sorry for the delay... busy day in the UK Office!
    So here is some information on SE LE and Full Differences:
    LabVIEW SignalExpress Limited Edition, otherwise known as LabVIEW
    SignalExpress LE, is software included with all National Instruments
    NI-DAQmx supported hardware devices. It allows the user to acquire,
    log, and export data with ease. With LabVIEW SignalExpress LE, users
    are now able to create one log per project and then export the
    collected data to ASCII or have it displayed in Excel. LabVIEW
    SignalExpress LE meets many basic data logging needs.
    However,
    LabVIEW SignalExpress LE does not provide more complex data logging
    functionalities. It is not capable of inline analysis functions, data
    logging alarms and events, documentation view, multiple data logging
    files in a single project and other more advanced data logging
    operations. These features are all available with LabVIEW SignalExpress.
    When
    LabVIEW SignalExpress LE is first installed, the user is given a free
    30-day trial of LabVIEW SignalExpress. After the 30-day trial period
    has expired, the user either chooses to register their copy of LabVIEW
    SignalExpress to continue using the Limited Edition or purchase LabVIEW
    SignalExpress.
    By default, LabVIEW SignalExpress LE displays
    only the features available in the Limited Edition. The settings can be
    configured so that the steps available in the Full Edition are also
    displayed. Select Tools>>Options to display the Options dialog box. On the General page, select Yes for the Show unlicensed steps option.
    For
    a summary of the differences between LabVIEW SignalExpress Limited
    Edition and LabVIEW SignalExpress features refer to the following chart:
    (See Attachment)
    So this leads me to beleive you should be okay.  You can copy and paste the SE.proj file from machine to machine.
    Let me know how you get on,
    Kind Regards,

  • Managing multiple iPods from one computer

    The existing posts re: managing multiple iPods/iTunes accounts from one computer don't seem to address my question. I have been sharing my iPod with the family, and want to get my son his own for his birthday. Can I manage both iPods from the same computer? Does the iTunes software have the ability to "recognize" which iPod unit is attached? I'm dying to get his music out of my iPod ...

    Can I manage both iPods from the same computer?
    Yes.

    Create new playlist and put the music you want in it.
    Open iTunes prefs -> iPod and select Automatically update only selected playlists and pick this new playlist.

  • How to use more than one ipod from one computer

    I've got my 30gb ipod set up and working fine from my pc. I've got my wife an ipod nano and want to set her's up totally separately. How can I do this?

    When the iPods belong to different people, there are basically three ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
    a) Sharing a single iTunes library
    b) Creating Multiple Libraries in a single Mac or Windows user account
    c) Creating multiple Mac or Windows user accounts.
    Note: When you are sharing an iTunes library, you don't have to set each iPod to update in the same manner, you can mix and match from the options below as each iPod has it's own update settings
    Sharing a Library and/or User Account
    If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish): iPod - Syncing Music
    Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Multiple Libraries
    It's also possible to have multiple libraries in a single account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
    Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
    Separate User Accounts
    Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
    I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here: Create A New User Account In Vista

  • End-to-end solution for managing 2 kids' iPods from one computer/iTunes?

    I'm sure this has been asked many times, but the only answers I can find address only one piece of my situation.
    Situation: iPod for minor son, iPod for minor daughter. One computer, one iTunes account. Each earns gift cards for their music. Each needs to put their selections on a wish list so I can review and approve them before they can buy them.
    Problem: How to get iTunes to open to their library for their iPod, let them redeem their gift card for their music, and create their own wish list from the one family computer, all independent of each other (except for me, who has to ensure age-appropriate choices).
    I understand how to create two libraries and the kludgy way to switch between them (BEFORE connecting the iPod). While that is a solution, it's appallingly unfriendly for an Apple solution. Question 1 - is there a way to set up iTunes to launch (in Windows) with a command line switch or something so that I can create a shortcut for each child so they don't have to remember "oh, yeah, shift-double-click iTunes, select my library" or have me there to do it for them every time??
    Second, is there a way to keep gift card balances separate in the iTunes account, so that each child can redeem their gift card and use what they want without using the other's balance?
    Third, and maybe this depends on the answer to (2), is there a way to set up separate wish lists in a single iTunes account?
    It seems that the ultimate answer would be to allow the iPod connected to determine which library got used (automatically), and that each iPod had its own "space" within the iTunes account to handle gift cards and wish lists, so that I only have to log in one place to review and approve the songs my kids requested.
    I'm sure someone has solved this -- any suggestions?

    Question 1 - is there a way to set up iTunes to launch (in Windows) with a command line switch or something so that I can create a shortcut for each child so they don't have to remember "oh, yeah, shift-double-click iTunes, select my library" or have me there to do it for them every time??
    No. The most practical way to allow children to each have their own, fully separate iTunes Store account is to set them each up their own user account in Windows. Then when they log in they'll have access only to their own iTunes library and iTunes Store account.
    Second, is there a way to keep gift card balances separate in the iTunes account, so that each child can redeem their gift card and use what they want without using the other's balance?
    You will need to open and maintain separate iTunes Store accounts, which if you're attempting to use a single iTunes library will require logging out of the iTunes Store and back in for each child.
    Third, and maybe this depends on the answer to (2), is there a way to set up separate wish lists in a single iTunes account?
    Not in a single iTunes Store account, no.

  • How to get song from one computer to another

    Updating your iPod's software, whether a major update or not, will re-sync the music to it from the computer after the software is finished installing.

    Unless the music is bought from iTunes, then you won't be able to transfer it without third-party software.
    You won't be able to transfer music that wasn't purchased from the iTunes Store using an iPod Touch because the Ipod Touch (First-Generation anyway, as far as I know) doesn't allow disk use.
    I do not know of any third party software that is completely free and provides this ability through its demo.
    Here is an article from Apple that you can use if you have any other kind of iPod available to use that allows disk use:

  • Is there a way to un-sync my iPod from one computer and then sync it to another computer with iTunes without losing all my data or downloading software?

    Hi, I'm selling my current computer that my iPod is synced to and want to un-sync (I think the correct term of phase is) my iPod from my current computer, so i can then sync it to my new computer without downloading any software or deleting all my data. Is this possible? If so, please tell me how. As usual, any help would be helpful.

    Do this:
    - iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
    - Then import into your new computer
    - Copy any synced photos to the new computer
    - Backup the ipd to the new computer
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The link directly above says how.
