How to synch IPOD Nano with multiple pc's

I will like to add 200 extra tracks from my sister's laptop ITUNES library onto my own very IPOD nano. Anyone can advise how to synch it so that it can add those audio files WITHOUT erasing those already stored on the IPOD?
Do i simply click on CTRL and SHIFT keys to prevent it from auto synching and add the other files manually?

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library. Even when manually managing an iPhone, you can only add content from one iTunes library.

Syncing Music to iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • How to hack iPod nano with passcode??

    So I have this old iPod nano I got in 2007, and I plugged it in for the first time as of 3 or 4 years ago and there is a passcode- idk it. How do I hack it????? PS I still want all, the music on there and/because I don't know the apple ID it uses. HELP!!

    I supposed you could try every combination possible.  Since there are 4 slots to fill in and a possibility of 10 different numbers in each slot, the # of possibilities is 10x10x10x10 or 10,000.  Probably not your cup of tea though.
    Some users have had luck by simply connecting their iPod to your their iTunes library and performing a sync operation with iTunes  Upon disconnecting it, they discovered it was no longer locked.  That would be a worth a shot.  If it does, make sure to immediately either change the combination or disable it altogether.
    Or connect your iPod to your computer.  Enable hidden files and folders on your PC or Mac and browse out to [iPod Drive/Letter] -> iPod_Control -> Device and remove the _unlocked unix executable file.  Then properly disconnect your iPod and reset it necessary.
    Any luck with any of these?

  • Using IPOD nano with multiple PC - song no longer working

    I have 2 nanos and 2 PCs. If IPOD 1 buys a song from PC 1 and then buys a song from PC 2, certain songs bought from PC 1 no longer play on NANO 1 --This happens on just one nano, not both. I can then go to PC 1 and drag the song onto Nano 1 again, the song will now play, but only until I put Nano 1 onto PC 2 again. Support could not help me!!! Says it must be the Nano!!

    Hi Julhic,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Are both your computers authorized? You might want to look at Knowledge Base Document #93014. Is the song still on your iPod? If not you might want to sync your iPod manually.

    Try:

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Can I sync my ipod nano with my second computer/ netbook while travelling?

    Looking for some advice on how to connect my IPod nano with my second computer while travelling. That's what happened: I have my iTunes library on my computer at home and can sync my IPod nano (6 th generation, replaced onyl recently) with that library. While I was travelling and wanted to use my IPod I received an error message asking me to connect the IPod with iTunes in order to recover/restore (sorry, the message apeared in German, so I do not know the exact wording in English) . As I only had my second computer - a small netbook - with me, I downloaded iTunes and connected the iPod - only to receive the message that this Ipod would sync with another computer (sure!) and would I want to sync it with this iTunes library instead now? (Of course not, I did not dare because that library was empty!). So there I was with my computer with iTunes library at home and an iPod stuck in recovery mode and not doing a thing during my vacation. Any suggestions? If I have to take my great big workstation with me to get the iPod running again, I might just as well leave the iPod immobile at home. (;-)

    On your home computer connect your Nano, click on the name in iTunes, move right to the Summary tab then tick the box that says Manually Manage Music. You will now have to er, manually drag your music to your iPod, and manually eject it when done, but you will be able to add music from two different computers.

  • What do they replace a 1st generation ipod nano with now?

    What do they replace a 1st generation ipod nano with now? from the recall.

    Glad you were able to sort it out - iPod cables and USB ports can sometimes by mysterious in their variability - though in your case the symptoms suggest that a conductor may have failed inside the cable you were using.  I've found that, using a selection of cables:
    my 2G nano will occasionally be detected as being connected via USB 1.0 (even when connected to 2.0 ports)
    my 3G nano syncs fine but steadfastly refuses to charge when connected to any of the USB ports on my main computer, though using the same cable charges happily when connected to a USB AC adapter
    Such things are just sent to annoy us
    On your other question, it is possible to completely replicate your library across two or more PCs.  As long as the iTunes database (iTunes Library.itl) is duplicated as well as all your media you then have two physical copies of one logical library, with which iDevices will sync on either computer.  See turingtest2's notes on  Make a split library portable to see how to verify that your library is in a consistent structure to make replication easier, and Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy on one method for replication (typically using an external hard drive that also serves as a regular backup).  My configuration looks like this:
    where the library on my "master" system is replicated, using MS SyncToy and an external HDD, to two other systems - a secondary one at home and one in my office at work.  My iDevices will sync to any of these without the "threat" of wiping their content because iTunes detects that they've been previously synced to a different library - because of the replication method used the "unique" library identifier that iTunes uses in the sync process is actually the same on all three systems.

  • I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.

    Hello.
    I need your expert opinion on how to create a map with multiple conditions.
    I have a procedure (which i cannot import or re-create in OWB due to the bug), so i am trying to create a map instead :-(
    How can i create a cursors within the map?
    My function creates table and cursor.
    Then it will have to check for duplicates in the tables (the one created and another table) - the criteria for finding duplicates is a number of fields.I then need to place few different conditions (if some attributes are not available) and it has to load cursor based on this conditions. The next step is to fetch the data into the cursor based on what attributes are missing.
    The next thing it will do is insert the data into table (if record doesn't exist), output the error in separate table is record is corrupted, or update the record with changed information.
    In short i need to re-create match / merge but with conditions, iterations etc 'built into' it.
    I can read up on available functions - it's just what would be the best options? and what would be the best approach to do so?
    In my function i use %rowtype - but cannot use it in owb - so what would be the alternative? i don't really want to create a lot of variables and then have a nightmare of maintaing it. are there any tips regarding this?
    having looked through Oracle dedupe - it's not really what i need because it is just DISTINCT.
    I would appreciate any help / advise on this.
    Thank you very much

    thanks a lot for your reply - i will look into this option :-)
    it is a bit more complicated now as i have to re-create the match / merge and then somehow 'tweak' it to achieve the result i need.
    At the moment i am looking to breakdown the package into smaller chunks 'functions' and try creating the map that way.
    Anyway, thank you very much for your suggestion.

  • How to design a form with multiple lang(Arabic and Eng) in a page

    Hi All,
    Could you pls help me how to design a form with multiple languages. when I set the form proprties-->Form Locale as Arabic. English text is comming in reverse and when set the FormLocale as English, Arabic text is comming in revese.
    Pls help me how to design
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Jayakar

    I am not sure how you can have two different languages inside the same PDF.
    Alternatively, if you want to place only the static labels, you can convert all the static label in one language to images and set the form language setting to other. And place the images inside the form using Image field. For example, you can keep the form language as English and then convert all the arabic language labels/ Static text to images.
    Anotherway,
         Have same sections in both the languages and hide and unhide based on the user selection of the language..
         if your user chooses Arabic, then you can unhide the Arabic sections and change the form language properties programmatically..
    Thanks
