I recently bought an iPhone and I already have an iPod touch but I never connected them to a pc, I've bought all my music on iTunes and I thought that once I registered the iPhone in the same account that all my music would sync on the iPhone but it hasnt
I'd love to know how to sync the music from the iPod touch onto the iPhone without using a pc basically, thank you :)
Not possible.
If all music was purchased from the iTunes store, you can manually download each song one by one with your iPhone without having to pay for it again.

You can also enable automatic downloads with your iTunes account on each device for future purchases.
Settings > Store. Under Automatic Downloads, select Music and Books and Apps if you want on each device. With this selected on each device, after purchasing/downloading a song on one device it will be downloaded on the other device automatically.

Should I buy the iPod touch 5g if I already have an iPod touch 2g and an ipad 2
Should I buy and iPod touch 5g when I already have an iPod touch 2g and an ipad 2
Well it is up to you. But there is some changes between the ipod 4 and ipod 5. I own both ipods and I would recommend getting the ipod5. These are some of the differences.
The ipod 5 has flash. It is very helpful especially if you like taking pictures at night.
The ipod 5 has siri. I personally like Siri, but if you don't you could always go to Siri settings and turn it off. Siri can be convinient in some cases. If you want to know the time in China or if you want to know the temperature in Hawaii.
Also it works much faster!
A ipod 5 comes in color
It is similar to a iphone and the best part f it is that it is cheaper than a iphone! -
My sister and I each have an ipod touch. We use the same computer and itunes but each have our own apple id. Everytime I want to update an app on my ipod it asks for my sisters apple id login!? help!
When it asks for another ID on an App Update, it means that the application was purchased under your sister's ID but downloaded to your device from the iTunes library that you share. Even though you both have your own Apple IDs, since you are syncing on the same computer, you are using the same iTunes library.
Whoever purchased the app is forever tied to it, and you can only have one version of a particular app in a single library....
Does that make sense?

First try this:
- Go on iTunes computer
- plug in the iPod
- authorize your device from store/authorize
- iPod / transfer from iPod by right clicking on the left pane
This will only transfer iTunes purchased music, not ripped CDs. and it is unnecessary now, as the music can just be downloaded from the cloud. -
I have two ipod touch. When trying to join game the second keeps "searching wifi games", we have connected with a friend before here. can't seem to connect HELP
Thanks, Bob! You are correct. And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE). One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind. Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers. Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them! -
If i already have an ipod touch 4th generation, can i upgrade to an ipod touch 5th generation?
I have an ipod touch 4th generation and i really want to get the 5th generation and I was wondering if i could upgrade instead of having to buy one for $300? And if i do upgrade will the new ipod come with the packaging (headphones,lightning cable) and how much would it cost to upgrade? please help!
Unfortunately, unless you actually work at Apple, you will have to purchase a new iPod at full retail price. Sorry.

I need to know how i sync my iphone 4s with itunes when i already have my ipod touch synced to it??
my ipod touch is already synced to my itunes. i want to sync my iphone 4s. when i plug it in it says there is already an ios device synced to this computer, do you want to 1. set up as new phone or 2. restore from the back up of my ipod....what do i do? and will this effecy my ipod??
What itunes is asking is would you like to import the files and settings of your ipod to your iphone? It'll import things like contacts, calendar, mail, apps with app data. If you want your phone set up just like your ipod then use that option. Otherwise pick "set up as a new device" and it'll allow you to keep the two seperate and you will be able to sync them both to your itunes independently of each other.

The best apps I had, now I can not have?
The backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.
As others have said
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

If I have a Mac computer and have an itunes account, can I download songs onto an iPod shuffle if I already have an iPod touch? If so, how do I do that? I'd like to get an iPod shuffle for when I work out. Thanks for your help!
Yes.
Connect the shuffle to your Mac, launch iTunes.
From the iTunes menu bar click File > Sync iPod
If the music stored on the iPod touch you will need to transfer iTunes purchases to the Mac first then sync the shuffle.

I have an ipod touch and recently performed the latest updates of itunes. It said there were problems with my ipod and it need to be restored. I did that and now it says it's in recovery mode and that I need to restore it. It takes 45 minutes and I've tried it several times and keep getting same message. My ipod is now unusable and it has a photo of a plug with an itunes icon telling me to plug it in. It is plugged in??? I restarted the computer, tried another computer, reset my ipod and nothing. Help!
If not successful try:

I want to use the same account for all my apple devices (macbook air, imac and iphone). I can't see how I can amend the iphone account because it is in grey? I also can't remember the password for this account so i can't even delete it and start again?
Help!
ThanksDeleting an iCloud account only deletes it from the Device, not from iCloud. In iOS 8, the name of this setting changed to "Sign Out" as that is a better reflection of what actually happens. Your iCloud data remains on the server, available to devices still signed into the account, but the device you sign out of the account on is disconnected from the account, and as a result, the iCloud data from that account is removed from the device. It will redownload to the device should you sign back into the account.
The only issue you'll run into when you switch between accounts is with my photo stream photos older than 30 days. When you delete (or sign out of) and account, your photo stream photos are deleted along with the other data from the account in question. However, unlike other data which remains on the server and can redownload to your device when you sign back in, my photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. When you sign back in, you will only get back my photo stream photos added in the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer in iCloud to redownload). Like other account data, any my photo stream photos on your other devices signed into the account are unaffected by this. If you want to keep older my photo stream photos on your device as you change iCloud accounts, save them to your camera roll before deleting (signing out of) the account. -
Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?
If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person -
