You can Share the Music but you cannot Transfer it to a Different Apple ID.

Uploading (sync) selected music from another computer?

How do you upload (sync) selected music from another computer?

If you want to use more than one computer with your iPod, then I would suggest using "Manually manage music and video" mode. I say that because when you go to the other computer and plug it in then your iPod is going to be erased of what is currently on it, and replaced with what your other computer has on it in iTunes. In order to get to that mode I mentioned up there you load up iTunes making sure that your iPod is connected and listed in iTunes, after it is all done syncing, click on your iPod in the source list, and then click on "Manually manage music and videos". If I were you, I would do this procedure on the computer that you have already plugged your iPod into, then after the procedure, you can use the other one. You are also going to have to go through an "Authorization" procedure. In order to do that, click on "Advanced" in iTunes and then scroll down to "Authorize this computer" and then follow any directions you may see. Oh and don't forget to click "Apply" at the bottom right of iTunes. Then you should be all set to use both computers. This will make it though so you have to manually copy music to your iPod as well as manually eject your iPod from iTunes.

How can I download music from another computer's music library to my Ipod without losing my own music?

How can I download music from another computer's music library to my ipod without losing my own music?

You'll want to enable Manually Manage Music and Videos. Once you do that you'll be able to drag and drop the music from the computer to the iPod.

HT5636 the screen has stopped working. Is there a combination of buttons that might have changed the screen from the laptop to project onto another screen.

hi my granddaughter has an assignment to print off tomorrow and her screen was blank when she turned the computer on. You can hear it is working but not see anything. Are there a combination of buttons she might have pressed that would change the screen to a projector? help please!!!

OK, if you technically can't help as it has been hacked/unlocked then let's talk about another iPhone I have that nothing as been modified since it was purchased from the carrier.
If I had a similar situation with this iPhone, could the camera problem be a software failure, and not just an hardware problem?
Thanks again,
and sorry for being so politically correct - it's definitely not me..

Importing tunes from another computer

Hi. I've been trying to help my wife import song files from her desktop PC iTunes library to her laptop PC iTunes library, without much success (I'm a Mac guy). Her iTunes libraries can "see" each other, but when you try to access them, a message appears along the lines of "please make sure your firewall software enables port 3689", or words to that effect. In other words, I should be able to at least play songs on one computer from another, but I can't even do that at this point, much less import them, which is what I'm really trying to do.
Sorry for the rambling....I'm just trying to include details for you all.
Thanks!

Two issues - Missing songs and retrieving music from another computer

HELP! I used to have a PC that I used for managing my Itunes and photos. Well, a few days ago, that computer went to computer heaven and won't even turn on. So, my husband had a MAC laptop sitting around so I decided to re-import all of my CD's into Itunes on that MAC. I know I can get my purchased music into Itunes on the MAC, BUT, what if some of my purchases were not checked during my last sync, and therefore are not on my IPOD? Are they gone? Surely not! At least I hope not.
#2, Has anyone ever seen the issue where you import a CD, go to your list of music, and only a handful of the songs from that CD are there? I'm having that issue as well.
Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated.

*what if some of my purchases were not checked during my last sync, and therefore are not on my IPOD? Are they gone? Surely not! At least I hope not.*
If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on the link at the bottom of this page you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

Load video/music from another computer

How do I add music or video from a computer other than the one I use to sync?

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:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
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

IOS6.1: Can't sync music from another computer?

Previously on 5.1.1 this worked just fine, no I seem to be having problems. Has Apple updated allowances across multiple computers?
I sync and backup my phone to MacBook Pro 1. From here I maintain my iPhone and sync some photos. I sync music from MacBook Pro 2 by dragging and dropping. Manually manage music & videos is checked on both computers when iPhone is plugged in. Both MB Pros are almost the same spec and same OS.
Problem is, when I plug the iphone back into MacBook Pro 1 after adding music from MacBook Pro 2 it removes all the tracks I have synced?
Anyone managing to still do this or has something changed in iOS6.1? Or am I missing something in iTunes 10?

I discovered that my MB Pro 2 had been deauthorized from my iTunes account. Re-authorized and works just fine!

Getting music from another computer

I am trying to download music from a different computer onto my iPod but I don't seem to be able to override the "auto-sync" function. I don't want to erase what is already on there, I just want to add new songs, but as soon as I choose "cancel" (when it asks if I want to "erase and sync") all traces of the iPod disappear from the computer. I can't even get to a point with the iPod on the "devices" list in iTunes. And I can't get to the iPod from "My Computer" after I have chosen to cancel the automatic sync. Does anyone know how to help me with this?

You can't do this.
iPod shuffle's can only have music loaded on to them from one computer at a time.

I was trying to update my ipod touch and an error occured. Now it says I'm suppose to connect it to itunes and restore it to it's original settings. That's going to make me lose all my pictures and stuff right?

Okay, while I was updating my ipod an unknown error occured. Now It's telling me I need to connect it to itunes, even though it's plugged in already. And when It does connect it shows up as a generic "ipod". It doesn't even show my ipod anymore. And it wants me to restore it. It said something around the lines of "restore ipod so it can connect to itunes." Isn't that going to delete all my pictures and stuff? I don't think it saved the reboot from when it was updating!I just want all my settings and stuff back! I don't want to lose all my stuff especially my 2,000 pictures on there! Ugh! Help!

Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

How Do I Get Music From Another Computer That Already Has ITunes/Ipod insta

Here's the story - I have a Video Ipod. I have music on it from my ITunes that I installed on my computer (PC). My sister has her own computer with her own itunes and her own ipod installed on it (same model Ipod and same version Itunes and also a PC). I want her music. I want it on my Ipod. How do I do this?
When I connected my ipod to her computer it said that another user was using Ipod software and that they had to log off before it would recognize my ipod. How do I do this without affecting her Itunes/Ipod settings? Help? Thank you....

what you are asking is illegal.. sharing music is illegal.
