  • Syncing music on 2 different iPods/music libraries w/o importing the CDs twice ?

    Hello to you all support community,
         Here's the thing : my brother and I bought together the full 2009 Beatles remaster box with their complete recordings and all.
         We both have an iPod and separate iTunes libraries on separate accounts on the same Mac. Here's the really stupid thing : if we both want to have the 2009 Beatles remaster on our iPods we need to have it on both libraries on both accounts, thus we need to import the CDs twice, once on each account, once for each iTunes library !
         That makes no sense : the data (a few gigabytes worth of music) will be written twice on the very same hard drive, where we only bought the music once, for the both of us. Sharing libraries does not fix that at all as it does not enable cross-syncing of parts of our music. And we don't want to share an iTunes library because we don't have all of our music in common, nor do we want to share an account for similar reasons.
         What is there to be done ? Is it a matter of author rights violation ? That won't change anyways, because the result is the same : the music from CD or set of CDs is synced twice on two different iPods, wether we import it twice on two different libraries or find a way to share the music and then import it just once. Thanks for helping !

    No, not on this computer as i only copy the music i want from this library to my iPod.
    Yes i am managing it manually by copying it myself and now i wanted to switch to syncing the music only.
    The Sync Apps is currently checked but when i try to uncheck it it said to remove all my apps from the iPod.

  • One computer, two different ipods, one shared library?

    Is there a way to setup two different ipods on one computer. I currently have my ipod library setup on an external drive. I setup a separate user profile for my husband. I pointed the library to my external drive, but no music files show up on his account. I also tried setting up home sharing....don't see library files under home sharing.....help please!

    *How to use multiple iPods with one computer*
    The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
    e.g.
    "Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
    "Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
    Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
    etc.
    I currently manage our family's five iPods using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

  • Can i load two different itunes on the same computer for two different ipods?

    Can I load two different itunes on my computer for two different ipods?  Or how can I get it so that when I click on itunes, only my songs come up and not my wifes?  And the same for her.

    Yes.  The simplest way is to have separate Windows accounts for each user.  When either user runs iTunes, he/she will have a separate library with distinct content, playlists, etc., and can sync individual iDevices as needed.

  • HT1386 How can I have two seperate sets of Playlists for two different iPods on one computer?

  • Can I run two different ipods from the same laptop?

    Hi, I am very new to all this. Is it possible to have two different ipods running from itunes on the same computer. If it is how do I separate them so when I connect and ipod it doesn't sync both lots of music.
    Please Help me
    Thanks

    I'm currently syncing three iPods to the same library. iTunes will recognize each iPod as a unique device. My preferred method of managing my iPods is "Sync Selected Playlists". This allows me the convinience of syncing (and all my ratings, playcounts and last played sync) while still being able to control what goes on each iPod. You can set your preferences for each iPod. You could managage one manually and sync the other. Whatever works best for you.

  • I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same computer, against two different Apple IDs. When I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message?

    I am trying to store music for two different iPods on the same Windows 8 computer, and when I try and download content from the Cloud I get an error message. Is it possible to have two different Apple IDs on the same computer?

    Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value).  You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
    In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
    Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
    Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
    Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
    The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these).  Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
    In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above.  As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

  • Synch bombs WinXP  Pro SP2 on two different iPods

    OK, here's my issue and I haven't seen anyone report anything quite like it.
    I have two different iPods: a 60GB and a very new 160 GB Classic.
    Both "fail" synch test in iTunes but the test output is not helpful in explaining "why."
    I have about 40 GB of mp3 and audiobook files in iTunes.
    If I "restore" either machine and put them on autosynch they will gl through importing all 6,000+ items (as indicated by the iTunes progress window) and then, suddenly, you end up looking at a blank black screen (not the GUI) with flat cursor blinking at upper left...computer hung up stone cold dead.
    If you power down the computer, the iPod will recognize it has been disconnected. Examining it (both) then gives you your various playlists, mostly without content, and a few (like 8 or 10) mp3s and audiobooks at max.
    If I load the playlists manually, one-by-one, I can upload all the content and the iPods work OK (but still fail synch tests).
    After uploading the bulk of the material, I can put them on autosynch and make minor changes such as adding a song or two and they will synch to completion. But neither will execute a complete upload without crashing on autosynch although placing the same amount of content manually works OK.
    Anyone ever see this behavior?

    Pull your OS X drive.
    XP and Vista 32-bit only give you 1.9GB of RAM.
    If you don't need native access or 3D you might just want to later use it with Fusion, VirtualBox or Parallels.
    Apple uses GPT (GUID) which creates those small 200MB and 128MB partitions you see that are essential.
    For me, I would just format the drive as MBR, and FAT/MSDOS or if you have NTFS from MacFUSE or Paragon, format as NTFS (preferable), and pull OS X and then install.

    Hi nprguy,
    It sounds like an earlier version of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software installed on your PC may be conflicting with this installation. 
    I would advise uninstalling both versions of the BlackBerry Desktop Software then reinstalling the latest version.
    The following KB articles should provide more information on the issue.
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when uninstalling BlackBerry Desktop Manager www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10220
    "Error 1316" InstallShield error is encountered when uninstalling or upgrading the BlackBerry Desktop Software

    Hi
    Installing the drive into the older machine may work, you WILL get a lot of driver errors and the unit may even fail to boot. The other problem is that the drives may not be compatable, the drive in the broken PC is a SATA drive, older PCs had IDE drives with very different connectors.
    Your best option is to do as you suggest and obtain a USB caddy and extract the data that way.
    Make sure that the caddy you get will support SATA drives (all new ones will).
