How to import songs onto iPod from two computers?

this probably was posted before, but is there anyway to upload songs from two different computers?
i have songs on my mom's computer that i dont have on my dads.

Try turning off auto-update. Right click your iPod, and go to iPod Options. Under music, click 'manually manage songs and playlist.' It should work after that. You will probabl have to do it on both computers.

  • HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account.  An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
    If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state).  If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
    Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

  • Unable to load songs onto Ipod from Intel Imac

    I am unable to unload songs onto my 5th gen ipod from my Intel Imac. No amount of troubleshooting has helped so far; SMC, restore, swapping usb ports, swapping cables, PRAM, etc.
    I can, however, load songs onto the ipod from my 6 yr old Tibook. This leads me to believe my Imac has a usb port problem, unless somehow my ipod is at the root of this issue?
    The tibook's usb is 1.1, not 2.0, which makes for verrry loonngg load times and I woould much rather be able to load from my Imac.
    Has anybody else encountered anything like this before?
    Of course my Imac and my ipod are out of warranty - if my Imac (or my Ipod) are in need of repair, can anybody recommend or anti-recommend good repair services, preferably in the Seattle area?
    please and thanks,
    dt

    Yes, Itunes starts up, no dialog boxes at first but I can anticipate soon getting a whirling beachball of death oftentimes just by plugging in the ipod, definitely if and when I try to load any songs onto it.
    I often eventually get a dialog box to the tune of ipod could not be loaded to for unknown reasons 1435. Thats the only one I remember right now, though it seems I have gotten slight variations on this theme.
    The ipod appears both in itunes and the desktop, although if itunes freezes I cannot see the whole desktop to confirm at all times. Yes, the ipod does appear in the system profiler under usb.
    Eventually the entire computer will be taken over by the wbbod, forcing a hard re-boot.
    please and thanks,

  • Getting music onto ipod from two different itunes libraries

    I have 2 different computers with different music on each. I have downloaded itunes onto both. I have downloaded music from one computer onto ipod. When plugging ipod into second computer it says that I have to delete content of ipod to allow me to sync with the second itunes library.
    Is there a way around this?
    I have 'authorized' both computers to my itunes account.

    Thanks very much!
    My issue is that I have stupidly dropped my first laptop and broken the screen so it is unusable.
    The music currently on my ipod is from this first laptop so I dont really want to wipe it in order to put music on from the second laptop (and hence now my only itunes store).
    Is there a way to take the music currently on my ipod off somehow and store it somewhere, eg on my new computer, so that I dont lose it when I 'wipe it to sync with my new itunes store'?
    Does that make sense?
    Thanks for the help

  • How to transfer videos onto iPad from multiple computers?

    I have an iPad mini.  Most of the time, I don't use it with a computer, but occasionally, I need to load videos onto it for editing.  I have two comptuers I need to load videos from (work and home).  Do I understand correctly that this is not possible?  I can manage media from multiple computers via iTunes, but it appears that the only way to get videos into the camera roll is to actually sync with iTunes?  And that's can only be done with one computer at a time?  And that changing which computer I use wipes the iPad?
    I've tried both Google Drive and Dropbox as well, and while the videos do show up and are playable, there doesn't appear to be any way to get the videos out of either app.  The videos are in MP4 format.
    Any advice?

    One work around could be: say you sync with comptuer A, use dropbox to get the videos from B to A, then iTunes to get them from A to your iPad.

  • How to import images onto iMac from MBP?

    I know I've made this work in the past but now, I'm not sure how. Came back from a trip with several hundred photos on iPhoto on my MBP(running SL). i would like to import them into Aperture on my iMac(Leopard).I think that in the past I copied the files into my Public folder on the MBP and would be able to import wirelessly into Aperture on the iMac. I have File Sharing enabled on both machines. Now Aperture on the iMac appears to see the MBP Public Folder but no photos show up in it. I must be missing something here but I'm not sure what. Is there some other straight forward to way to move the files from the MBP to the iMac short of burning them to a dvd or connecting the two via firewire?
    Thanks in advance.
    Jim

    If you simply enable File Sharing on the MBP: Sys prefs -> Sharing -> File Sharing -> On.
    And then on your iMac use the Finder sidebar -> Shared -> click on your laptop's name in the list -> choose connect as -> fill in your username/password as it is on the MBP and you should be able to select all partitions on the MBP, and your own user folder (and perhaps public folders).
    And you should have read/write permissions so you can copy the files over.

  • Computer crashed, how to keep songs on ipod from disappearing

    my computer has crashed and i have reinstalled all of my programs including my itunes. I am aftraid to pulg in my i pod to download new songs because i am afraid that all of my songs on my ipod will be erased. How di i prevent this from happening???

    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.

  • How to drag songs onto iPod in iTunes7? Where's the list?

    Honestly, iTunes 7.. thank you Apple. You've added some visual elements, but where the **** did you put my iPod songs list? If I click on my iPod under "devices" (on left), I am greeted with a fancy iPod settings page..
    Where did the iPod song library go? How do I get to it again? Stop changing things around, Apple!

    The same place it was before, under the iPod device name.
    Plug in your ipod, open iTunes if you have to. When the iPod is mounted you will see the device name with a small arrow next to it. Click the arrow, it will point down and you will see a list of everything on the iPod.

  • Dowloading Music onto iPod from different computers

    I have a PC & a laptop, each having different music on them...my question is, I had downloaded songs to my iPod mini & then later on plugged it into the laptop to download different songs & it erased all my music that was downloaded from the pc! Is it not possible to use different computers with your iPod?

    Vanessa,
    That's also my name, by the way lol.
    The reason why iTunes erased your library is because you are copying music from 2 different libraries. iTunes only lets you have 1 library to prevent music stealing.

  • How to use ONE IPod on TWO Computers

    I have an Desktop-PC using ITunes 5.0 and an IPod 20 GB. When I connect my IPod with my Laptop, the complete IPod is deleting by the ITunes on the Laptop. How can I use ONE IPod on TWO Computers without deleting the music hole time?!

    I think you need to manually update on at least the computer that has the smaller music selection.
    it may be best to turn off automatic updates on both machines and manually add and delete songs.
    or you could network both computers to share one music library

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • How can i import songs or videos from my iPod to my computer?

    How can i import songs or videos from my iPod to my computer?
    iTune doesn't seem to be able to get this done...

    You can't sync your music back from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. They will all transfer songs but if I recall, only iPodCopy also does videos.
