If I get the Iphone, can I create a separate account and move all my music sucessfully from my Ipod to my new Iphone?

I want to know if I can create a separate account from the one that my ipod belongs to and transfer all my music and movies to that new account which will have my iphone on it. Not all of my music is bought from the Itunes store though. I downloaded some from youtube and CDs. Can I also transfer those songs onto my Iphone?

There's various ways of managing multiple devices on a single computer. The following document is worth checking through:

Hello ryane84
The easiest and most efficient way to copy your music is to follow the steps under the External drive section. Make sure that you have organized the iTunes library first before you copy it over. Then put the copied iTunes folder in the same Music folder on your computer.

You need to transfer the iTunes library, not just the music.
Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.
Launch iTunes.
This is all you need to do

Good lord.
I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
Quit iTunes first.
In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
Is "Burn Playlist to Disc" showing up in the contextual menu now?

I currently have one iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch and for my work iPhone and iPad. Can I create a separate account for work and keep my current account for my personal use - on the same computers?

I have an iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch - have had for several years. When my work provided me with an iPhone and now and iPad 2, they all fall under my personal iTunes account. Is it possible for me to create a separate account for my work devices and apps, while leaving my personal account intact? I use both my compter at home and at work to sync occasionally.

A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
Let's start with iTunes.
Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
Really?
OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

I am a coach and are wanting to make sharing videos with my coaches easy. Can i create an icloud account and attach 4 coaches to that i cloud accout so they recive the uploaded video to thier phones also?

We are all iphone and ipad users and would like to share videos over icloud. Idealy i would like to create a team icloud account and giver permission to the coaching staff and players. I could upload game film to the cloud and it would share to thier devices. Is this possiable with the icloud?

Welcome to the Apple community.
iCloud video sharing is limited to 5 minute clips, there are better ways of sharing longer clips, such as YouTube or DropBox.

How can I get my music off my old ipod onto my new iphone?

I just got a new computer and have an ipod from a long time ago. I would like to get the music off the ipod and onto my computer and then put it onto my new iphone. I already have the cables and have installed iTunes but I don't know what to do. I'm afraid if I tell it to "sync" it will erase all the music already on my ipod because there's no music in my iTunes library currently.

I recently gave my old iPod touch someone after restoring it Etc. the iPod was completely cleared off. However it's only taking some of their music. How do I get it to sync with their iTunes account and sync all their music ?

I recently restored my iPod and gave it to my mom. It accepted some of her music but not all of it synced. How do I get all of her music to sync

1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

How to get Apps from my ipod to my new Iphone

Hello Altogether,
as already mentioned in the headline, I am proudly possessing a new iphone since last week.
I also have an ipod touch for which I bought some games over the last month. Now of course, I want to bring those games to my new iphone!
How can I do this? I am not willing to pay for the games a second time of course.
Can you help?
Many thanks!

All 3rd party apps on your iPod Touch should be available in your iTunes library on your computer and would be if you have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPod Touch sync preferences with iTunes which should be selected. With this selected, after downloading an app with your iPod Touch, the app would be copied to your iTunes library the first time you sync your iPod Touch with iTunes after doing so. This also allows for downloading and installing an app on your iPod Touch with iTunes on your computer and removing an app from your iPod Touch by deselecting the app under the Apps tab followed by a sync without deleting the app permanently. If you want to re-install the app again later, reselect the app under the Apps tab followed by a sync to re-install the app on your iPod Touch.
The very same applies to the iPhone.
Since you apparently don't have this selected under the Apps tab for your iPod Touch sync preferences, with your iPod Touch connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPod Touch. After confirming all apps were copied to your iTunes library, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab for your iPod Touch sync preferences making sure all apps currently installed on your iPod Touch are selected below.
After all your apps are in your iTunes library, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences, select the apps below you want installed on your iPhone followed by a sync.
BTW, you can re-download an app with iTunes on your computer or on your iPod Touch or iPhone and you won't be charged again for a purchased app as long as you use the same iTunes account to re-download the app that was used to purchase the app originally.

Can I create two iCloud accounts and separate family and parent - only content?

I want to take my existing iTunes including music, movies and tv shows and put it on iCloud but also want to separate into family and parent-only accounts.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you cannot transfer purchased content from one account to another. If you created a second account, for specific content, you would need to start purchasing again.

If I get the Iphone, can I create a separate account and move all my music sucessfully from my Ipod to my new Iphone?
