How to manage devices on my itune account?

My itunes account has 1 synced device which is my ipad 2nd gen! I also have a ipod 5th gen which i would like to add to my itunes account. Ive read the instructions how to add a device to your account but ive had no success. For some reason it doesnt show the device in the "manage devices" section on the itunes settings. I have tried syncing the ipod and i have also restored the ipod but this has still not worked.

Have you purchased anything?
It is automatic.  You need do nothing.
Itunes verifies your account using your credit card details.  That does not mean that it will charge it.

    Thanks pvonk, I will try downloanding the book from the Iphone right now.......
    Just tried to download and it wants me to buy it again?  Is there some way around this?  I guess I thought that was the whole point of the cloud, buy it once and access from any of your devices right?
    Also, I have logged into the icloud.com as suggested and will plink around there for a bit and try to understand.  It is just all so dang different that what I am used to; Apple's way, that is.
    Thanks again for the Icloud tip and if you know of a way to download without making a 2nd purchase I would sure love to hear it!
    Geez. one other thing (I guess I am complaining) but I bought more space in the cloud, they took my cash fast enough but have not yet increase the size of my storage space yet?  Is Apple sometimes slow to get internal stuff done?

  • I accidentally removed my iPhone from manage devices in my iTunes account.  How do I get back on as a device to use my account?

    I accidentally removed my iPhone from manage devices in my iTunes account.  How do I get my iPhone 5s back on as a device to use my account?

    Hi jakefrombishop,
    If you changed that old ID to your current ID using Manage your Apple ID, try the following to see if it will accept your current password:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and sign on with your current Apple ID and password. EDIT the ID and change it to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Now on the iPhone, where it is asking for your password to turn off Find My iPhone, type in your current password
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and sign on with the old email address and your current password. EDIT the Apple ID back to your current email address. You may need to verify it again.
    Fingers crossed!

  • How to manage 2 iPhones one iTunes account and a shared iPad on iCloud?

    My wife and I both have iPhones with separate contact lists but share the same iTunes account. To complicate matters further we also have a shared 'Family iPad'. I have updated my iPhone and iPad to iOS 5 and iCloud. I am unsure what will happen when I update her phone to iOS 5 and iCloud? Will it replace one of our contact list with the others or will it merge the lists resulting in lots of duplicates on both our contact lists? To be honest I'm happy to share calendars, photos, music etc.. But don't want to wipe one of our contact lists. Any advice on how I can manage this going forward so we can both use our iPhones but share the iPad?

    I updated iOS 5 to my own phone and my iPad. When I updated it on my wife's phone I made sure I selected for it not to sync contacts, calendars etc... With iCloud when asked during install. once it was installed on my wife's phone I then went into settings and turned on the each thing individually that we wanted to share ie it's useful when she adds a calendar date that it appears on all our devices. However, I left off syncing her contacts with iCloud so we retain separate contacts. Problem is that with you iMessage with people from the iPad it goes to both her phone and mine? Think it may be time for a genius appointment.

  • I am completely in the dark about how to manage devices and use iTunes, are there tutorials available?

    I am completely in the dark about how to manage my iTunes and devices.
    I have a desktop with Windows 8 (ugh!!) and I have iTunes for Windows.  My wife has a iPod Touch and I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S.  Currently, the only devices associated with my Apple ID are the desktop and the iPad.  How do I add the iPod and my iPhone to the devices and how do I put "puchased" iTunes on my wife's iPod when attached to the desktop?
    Thanks.

    If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it. 
    To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

  • How do i disassociate devices from my itunes account? I have an old iphone 4, PC, and soon to be old iphone 5.

    How do i disassociate devices from my itunes account? I have an old iphone 4, PC, and soon to be old iphone 5.

    Hey sgallagher5200,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines how to remove an associated device from your account:
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
    Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID
    To remove a device or computer from your Apple ID:
    Open iTunes.
    Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
    Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
    From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
    Click the Remove button next to the device name you would like to unassociate.
    Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90-day timer. You must wait 90 days from the day the device was first associated with your Apple ID before it can be associated with another Apple ID.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • HT4436 we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    You need a unique AppleID for each iCloud account.  So grab some free gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo or whatever email addresses to make five new AppleIDs.  Now, everybody make an iCloud account for themselves, and keep the existing shared AppleID and password just for use in the iTunes and App Stores.  You can also each use your own unique AppleIDs to make iMessage accounts and keep those separate as well.

  • How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

    We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id).  I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices.  Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime.  The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
    Please Help...
    I appreciate the help and support.

    P and V-
    If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
    The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID.  Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy".  That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
    On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping.  If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
    From the Home screen, double click your Home button.  You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle.  You will then see a red minus sign on each.  Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background.  (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

  • How to use multiple devices on one itunes account

    I have one itunes account, three iphones and one itouch.  How do we use the same itunes account be not share data, pictures, contacts etc?

    Connect the iOS device, select it from the left column under "devices" and just don't check those items in iTunes:
    Un-check the appropriate boxes for Contacts, etc. You can set these individual preferences for each iPhone and iPod Touch.

  • HT1660 How can I maintain two separate itunes accounts on one single device without erasing either set of data?

    How can I maintain two separate itunes accounts on one single device (iPhone 4) without erasing either set of data when syncing with itunes?

    Hi,
    Depends on what you trying to setup but for purchases, you can roll down at the very end of the iTunes/AppStore pages to logout of your current account and then login into a different one.  Then your purchase will be billded to this new account.  Everything will sync as you used to but in order to use the purchased content in iTunes or other devices, you will need to authorize them (you can have up to 5 devices authorized for an account).

  • I'm managing several devices from my itunes account.  If I delete a song from my iphone, will it also be deleted from other family member's devices and itunes?

    I'm managing several devices from my itunes account.  If I delete a song from my iphone, will it also be deleted from other family member's devices as well as in itunes?

    Ok, thanks!  I'm pretty new to having multiple apple products.  Another question though, if I delete, say Christmas music, from my device and it is still in itunes, will it automatically sync back to my device next time I sync it?
