Can I have more than one ipod with more than music library on one computer

I was just wondering if i could have 2 different ipods (one a 5th generation and the other ipod touch) with 2 different music libraries on the same computer and itunes? because right now im using my parents computer and my fiance is using my laptop and we're moving so we'll only have one computer in the next few weeks. So if anyone could try to give me an answer or have a solution that would be fantastic lol!

See these articles about using more than one iPod on one computer, and with either one or more iTunes libraries.
Multiple iPod installations.
How to use multiple iPods with one computer.
If you have the latest iTunes, an easy way to create a new library is to hold down the 'alt' key whilst opening iTunes (for Macs), or hold down the 'shift' key (for Windows).
This will give you the option of either using the current iTunes library or creating a new one.
There are various methods of transferring different songs to different iPods with a single iTunes library.
One is to manage the songs manually.
With this setting, you can drag and drop songs/playlists etc onto the iPod from iTunes, and also delete and/or edit songs which are currently on the iPod without affecting the iTunes library.
If you wish to keep the convenience of automatic sync, then you could set the iPods to sync with "selected playlists". This setting can be found in the iPod summary screen under the 'music' tab. With this setting, different playlists can be transferred and later deleted from each iPod without affecting any playlists stored in iTunes or the playlists on the other iPods.
Also, on the 'summary' main page you will see the option to "only sync checked items". With this setting selected, if you remove the check marks from any songs in iTunes, they will not be transferred to the iPod. You can restore the check mark if you want to put the songs back on the iPod at a later date.
Be aware that when playing songs in iTunes, any songs that do not have a check mark against them will be skipped over and will not be played.

Can you have more than one ipod on the same computer?

me and my sister live together and we would like to be able to have two seperate libraries on the same computer. one library is already there and when the second ipod is plugged in, it comes up as a sub-library that is unacessable.

There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and or user account or
b) Creating multiple user accounts.
Note: When you are sharing an iTunes library, you don't have to set each iPod to update in the same manner, you can mix and match from the options below as each iPod has it's own update settings
Sharing a Library and/or User Account
If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish):
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
Loading the iPod shuffle differs slightly but it can still be used with the others, for details have a look at this page: Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Windows
It's also possible to have multiple libraries in a single account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Option key (or Shift key in Windows) when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library:
Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
Separate User Accounts
Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:
Using Windows XP User Accounts

Can you have more than one iPod shuffle in one copy of iTune

Hi,
I've bought an iPod shuffle each for my two daughters, since they live with their mum I won't be able to set them up for them, anyway, they will be using them on a W2K PC, I am wondering, can you have two iPods set up on the one copy as it were, of iTunes?
Someone at the Apple store said they'll have to set up two windows users (they all share one login) and login separately, in order for their two libraries to remain separate, with their two ipods? Or is it as simple as creating two libraries, and naming the two iPods separately?

Hi Angela.
Welcome to discussions. If you want to ask a question which is totally different from the one which started the topic, then it is best to start a new topic. That way you stand more chance of getting an answer more quickly.
Plug your shuffle in. Open iTunes (it will probably open automatically). The shuffle will appear in the source list of iTunes. Click the name of your shuffle (in the list). There is a grey bar (at the bottom of iTunes). Make sure that "replace all songs when Autofilling" and "choose songs randomly" are not selected. Then just put the songs on the shuffle that you want and delete any that are already on there that you don't( drag and drop / delete). Then the next time you plug it in, it won't make any changes automatically.
Basically as long as you never push autofill, then your shuffle should not start doing things of its own accord. So just get the songs you want on there via the drag and drop method (the only method for manual selection). Then never push autofill again.

Is it possible to have more than one ipod on itunes? for example 3 different family memebers have 3 different ipods but use 1 itunes

We have 3 people in our family who have 3 different types of iPods (shuffle, nano and touch), we all use the same iTunes. Is this correct? We are having issues with errors while trying to sync. Does anyone know why? Should all 3 of us have a seperate library/playlist? Would appreciate all the help/assistance we can get!

Yes. You can sign into any account you like from itunes.

Having more than one ipod on one computer

Is there any way to have more than one ipod on one computer? If so how do you make it work without having to have the same songs on the same ipod? Doyou make separate playlists or what? I am clueless as to what to do and I need someone to tell me how to do it without confusing me!!!
Thanks!

If you are adding a second iPod for your own use, just connect the new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions. It will update from your existing library. Depending on the size of your library and the type of iPod you choose you can have it update all songs and playlists, selected playlists only or you can manage it manually. The links in the section below explain the various methods.
If the iPod belong to two people the there are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and user account.
b) Creating multiple user accounts and having separate libraries.

Grouping on fields that have more than one value entered. Please need help fast!!!

Post Author: DennisC
CA Forum: General
I am creating a report that is to be grouped on a particular field that can have more than one entry. My user said they did not care how I did it but to only count the record one time. The field that is selected is a dropdown on an form that is in Alpha order. So the entries always appear in the the field in alpha order. This is for use as an example: Record 1 has a value of CAT in the field, Record 2 has a value of CAT, DOG in the field and Record 3 has a value of CAT, DOG, HORSE in the field. I get 3 separate groupings for the 3 records.
Group = CAT
      Then the detail information appears here
Group = CAT, DOG
      Then the detail information appears here
Group = CAT,DOG,HORSE
      Then the detail information appears here
What is would like to see using this example is one group for CAT with all 3 records appearing under it and ignore the other two. This way there would all be getting counted but the report would look a little more streamlined.
Group = CAT
      record 1 detail information
      record 2 detail information
      record 3 detail information
thanks in advanced for any help!!!!

I am trying resolve the same/similar issue in Crystal Reports 10. For example, on a table there is a column called X with values Xsub1, Xsub2, Xsub3, etc. The user can select a parameter that includes Xsub2 and Xsub4. If this is selected 2 reports are generated (one for Xsub2 and Xsub4). What we really want is one report with the combined information for Xsub2 and Xsub4. How is (or is it) possible to do this in Crystal Reports 10? FYI - When the report was initially created the main body of the report was placed in the Group Footer so if the Group Footer is suppressed the content of the report is suppressed, too.
Thanks

That's correct. They cannot be merged nor terminated. You can stop using them. Note that anything you purchased (free or paid) is permanently connected with the Apple ID used to purchase those items. Only Apple has the ability to make those changes, so you would need to ask them for help.

I have more than one copy of the same song in my iTunes. Some have the icloud symbol next to them and some do not. I need to clean this up but I am afraid to delete the songs for fear I will lose them.

On top of that my Mac keeps telling me my start up disc is full and I am deleting stuff like crazy!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
It won't be a problem if you delete your extra copies.
I don't download very much to my tv, I do sometimes if I'm in bed but usually I do it from itunes. However if you have not fully downloaded something to the tv it is possible to start the download from itunes as well, you have likely activated 'check for downloads fin itunes in some way, could be by opening itunes, selecting 'check or downloads' from the advanced menu or that you simply have automatically check for downloads set in your prefs and it has checked coincidentally.
