    Don't know why you would.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like.

  • Back.  How do put the new serial number on my itunes?

    My ipod nano was recalled and chances are I will not get my original one back.  How do I put the new serial number on my itunes so my computer will recognize the new (refurbished) one?

    I'm not sure that you need to. iTunes will read the serial number from the new iPod when you hook it up. If you aren't talking about the iPod serial number, but instead talking about the iTunes user ID and password, keep using what you have.

  • Syncing a new ipod to my existing itunes

    I've just bought a new ipod as I lost my old one, and I need to sync it to my itunes. The last time I did this, I managed to erase the entire itunes library by mistake so had to set everything up again from scratch, so I want to avoid this happening again this time!
    Can anyone tell me step by step how to connect my new ipod to my itunes without erasing any songs?
    Also, is it possible to have two different ipods synced to to the same itunes?
    Thanks!

    You should be able to just plug it in. itunes will see it is a different ipod serial number and take you through the setup.
    Here's an article on syncing multiple ipods to one PC. I prefer method 2.

  • Using New iPod Mini w/Existing iTunes on Computer

    I already have one iPod, andhave iTunes loaded on my computer.
    I have just acquired a second, new iPod Mini, and would like to start it up for the first time.
    Can I simply plug it into my computer w/the existing iTunes loaded on it?

    First, make sure that the iPod is fully charged.
    iPods come pre-formatted for Mac, so you may need to format it for Windows.
    Make sure that you have the latest iPod Updater software
    You also need to install the Updater software by double-clicking on the file that downloads.
    After you install the Updater to your PC, reboot your computer.
    After rebooting, run the Updater.
    Go to: Start ==> Programs ==> iPod.
    It should initialize then ask you to connect an iPod.
    Connect the iPod when asked (not before) and you should have two options available: Update or Restore.
    -- Choose the Update option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version.

  • Setting up new iPod with my existing iTunes library?

    Hello all --
    This may be a simple question, but I just wanted to play it safe. My original iPod (a classic) has more or less died, so I think I'm going to have to buy a new one. I have a rather large iTunes library and want to make sure I can move my song collection to my new iPod (I haven't purchased it yet).
    Is there any trick to it? Or, once my computer recognizes the new iPod, can I just simply click-and-drag the songs to the new, empty iPod?
    I'm not going to lose any songs, right? The last thing I'd want to do is have to copy all of my songs from my CD to my computer again.
    Please let me know. Thanks so much!

    You just connect the new iPod. iTunes will actually bring up a dialog asking if you want to sync your iTunes library to the new iPod, and let you name the iPod.
    once my computer recognizes the new iPod, can I just simply click-and-drag the songs to the new, empty iPod?
    If you want to do it manually and set the iPod to +manually manage music+, you can. Just say no when iTunes asks if you want to sync. But I suggesting using the automatic sync, unless you have a reason for using the manual "drag and drop" method.
    Also, you should go into the iPod DEVICE tabs (in iTunes) to set up how you want to handle videos, podcasts, contacts, etc.

  • Will connecting a new ipod to an existing itunes account erase anything?

    I have a new itouch and I want to connect it to my existing macbook and itunes account.  Will I have any problems?  I am afraid that I will erase all my songs in the itunes account...

    I have read this, but it does not help. My crashed computer had my iTunes library with MY iTunes ID. The new computer and iPad that i want to transfer my music to, that is on my iPod, is under a different iTunes account. Can I still transfer my music from my iPod to a new computer that has a different ID?

  • How to put songs in ipod shuffle

    how to put songs in ipod shuffle

    This document describes the ways to put music on a shuffle (and also shows the four shuffle models)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1719
    If the shuffle is the current 4th gen (or 3rd gen), here is one convenient way to do it.
    Create a new playlist in your iTunes library, and put all of the songs you want on the shuffle on that playlist.  (Or you can use an existing playlist.)  Back on the shuffle's Music screen in iTunes, check the checkbox forSync Music.  Choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Below that, find that playlist under Playlists and select (checkmark) it.  You can select other items on those lists if desired, including other playlists.
    When you click Apply, the songs in your selection(s) sync to the shuffle.  Going forward, to update the shuffle's songs, just update that playlist in your iTunes library (add/remove songs).  The shuffle does not need to be connected.  The next time you connect the shuffle (or click Sync if already connected), iTunes automatically updates the shuffle with the same changes.

  • HT1695 I know nothing about how to use my new ipod and when reading the little bit of information in the folder that came with it, all I can do is turn it on, but it just powers down after a few seconds.  How do I work this thing?

    I know nothing about how to use my new ipod and when reading the little information that came with it, all I can do is turn it on.  Then in a few seconds it goes black, never having brought up a screen to do anything!  Help!  What do I do to get this thing going?

    You might consider connecting it to the charger and charging up the battery overnight.
