IPod shuffle and other computers

Dear All
Once the sync process is complete with one computer, can the iPod Shuffle be used to copy music from other computers that have not been synchronised with the it? And can one only work with the Shuffle with the computer with which it has been synchronised?
thank you

An iPod shuffle can only contain content from one iTunes library at a time. Content placed onto it through the Finder or Windows Explorer doesn't count toward the limit but can't be played on it.

VoiceOver for iPod Shuffle and Other

Mengapa VoiceOver di iPod Shuffle tidak dibekali oleh VoiceOver Watch di dalam VoiceOver?
klik 1 kali untuk menyebutkan nama artis dan judul yang sedang didengarkan
klik 2 kali untuk status baterai pada iPod Shuffle dan
klik tombol VoiceOver dengan cara menahannya yang ada di iPod Shuffle untuk memilih Playlist lagu.
Mengapa tidak ada klik tombol VoiceOver 3 kali?
saya merekomendasikan kepada Apple Developer khususnya untuk Developer iPod Shuffle dan lain-lain untuk membuat tombol VoiceOver Watch pada waktu setempat pada klik button VoiveOver dengan cara mengKlik 3 kali.
Agar pengguna iPod, iPhone,dan iPad tidak lagi melihat Jam Tangan mereka pada saat berjalan atau sedang menyetir mobil tetapi dengan cara mengKlik 3 kali pada Tombol VoiceOver yang ada di Apple EarPod atau tombol VoiceOver yang berada pada iPod Shuffle. Saya memberi saran kepada Apple Developer untuk membuat VoiceOver Watch pada iPod, iPhone, dan iPad. VoiceOver Watch bisa digunakan oleh iPod Shuffle pada update software version diatas 1.0.1 dan berada pada IOS 7 atau yang lebih baru. .Terima kasih. _Muchammad Bagoes Setyawanto_ [email protected]_

Unfortunately, you can not. Content can only be synced to the Shuffle via iTunes on a PC or Mac.

I tried to set up my new ipod shuffle and a error message popped up saying Ipod not found cannot update. I can't sync my ipod now but it is showing on itunes. What should I do?

I bought a new 4th gen ipod shuffle and tried to sdet it up last night. I installed the latest itunes software and started to sync my ipod, but error boxes kept popping up saying ipod not found cannot sync. It was showing in itunes, then it would disappear, then it would come back. I am not very good with computers so I don't know what to do. Can someone help?

Do you have an iCloud backup? If you backed up your old phone to iCloud you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Erast All Content & Settings (which will erase your phone), then go back through the setup screens again and when prompted choose Restore From iCloud Backup. However your backup won't contain everything in your iTunes library (such as your music) so you'll need to be able to sync with your computer unless you purchased everything from iTunes and want to redownload it to your phone.

Using iPod Shuffle with TWO computers

I have two laptops (one Powerbook and one iBook) and would like to use my iPod Shuffle with both computers, downloading music from the iTunes of each computer. Is that possible or will it always make me choose which iTunes I am linked to and delete all the music from the other one?

You can set your iPod shuffle up to mount as a disk on the desktop, and copy data files that can be transported from one computer to another. You aren't going to be able to use the shuffle to sync music from one iTunes account and another, however. It was only designed to work with one computer/one iTunes at a time.

HT1689 I lost my iPod shuffle and want to know how to deactivate it from my account using my iPad.

I lost my iPod shuffle and want to know if I can deactivate it from my account using my iPad. Is is possible or do i have to use my computer? It's not accessible. Can someone help?

The only devices that are authorized to an iTunes account are computers. iPads, iPods, iPhones, AppleTVs don't count as authorized devices. There's no need to do anything.

You are referring to OFFICE 2010, not Windows XP or 7.
And which version of Windows do you have?
NEVER begin before you have a backup, ideally one you have tested and know works.
You don't really install Boot Camp, the Assistant is a partition tool utility.
You may just want Office 2008 for Mac.
If you need Office for Windows, perhaps run Windows in a VM like Parallels or Fusion.
Buy some backup drives and start using TimeMachine for one backup, then weekly backup with SuperDuper.
IF there is now a partition for Windows, all you need is to buy Windows, and I would recommend Windows 7 Home Premium (retail) which is about US$149.
Has nothing to do with free space. Office 2010 isn't to boot from. In fact, you can copy the disc to a folder (1.25GB) and run SETUP from there.

IPod Shuffle and Windows 7

I just purchased an iPod Shuffle and attempted to use it on my Windows 7 Beta. iTunes installs and works just fine, but as soon as I hook my Shuffle up, it attempts to sync for roughly 3 minutes and then tells me something along the lines of "Cannot Recognize Disk".
Anyone have any ideas?

Well, that's certainly understandable. However, once Windows 7 is actually out of Beta, this issue may continue to exist. I suppose it's a good thing that it's been discovered now while in Beta mode. I intend on notifying Microsoft about this as well.

So, I bought the iPod shuffle and when I plug it into my mac, the option of syncing doesn't appear. What do I do?

Does the Shuffle appear ini Tunes at all? If not try using a different USB port and double checking to make sure the other end of the syncing cable is firmly seated in the Shuffle.

Ipod shuffle and podcasts appearing before normal songs

hi i have an ipod shuffle 1 gig and i have an odd problem..
i subscribe to some talk podcasts and i download streamlink mp3's of other talk programs and i have an odd problem when i add them to my shuffle.
when i have the order set as the mp3 that i downloaded to play first and the podcasts to play last.. for some reason, every time i try to play the podcasts somehow skip the # order i set when putting the files in.
I've tried the 5 r's once already i suppose i probly did something wrong and will try it again but does anyone have any ideas what i can do to fix this problem?
I have the latest itunes and i think i have the latest shuffle bios. I just can't figue out why it's doing this.. doesn't matter what podcast or mp3's are put in from my file list in itunes, thought that could help too.. thanks in advance.

Hi, I already have a "normal" iPod that I sync my
entire iTunes library with. I would like to get an
iPod shuffle and use the auto fill from playlist
option to put songs on it. I'm just wondering if
this will interfere with my current iPod or does
iTunes play nice with two iPods connected?
IF you're using Windows, TWO iPods connected SIMULTANEOUSLY is a BAD idea. Otherwise a Shuffle will play nice with another iPod...

HT1481 How do I get rid of my music on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs?

How do I get rid of old songs on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs??

This is document lists the four iPod shuffle models and the ways to sync music to the shuffle.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1719
The way you remove songs depends on the model (1st and 2nd gen versus 3rd and 4th gen), and the method being used to add songs. I don't know your specifics (please provide), I'll go with one possibility...
You have a 4th (current) gen shuffle and you use the manual method to load the shuffle, by dragging songs to the shuffle from your iTunes library in iTunes (or using the Autofill feature). If that is your shuffle model and how you load it...
First, in the latest iTunes, the sidebar can be hidden. To show it, go up to the menu bar, under View, and select Show Sidebar.
To remove songs, select the shuffle in the sidebar, under DEVICES. "Drop down" its content list, which is indented below the iPod. Click on Music there. Over to the right, you see a list of songs currently on the shuffle. Select the song you want to remove, and hit the Delete key on keyboard. Confirm action. You can do this with one song, a selection of songs, or the entire list (by selecting Select All from the File menu).
If you have a 1st or 2nd gen shuffle, or you use automatic syncing (not manual loading or Autofill), please post back.

I just got a brand new ipod shuffle and every time i plug it into my computer it shuts down itunes. What's going on?

Its a brand new 2 gb ipod shuffle and has never been connected to a computer before.

It would be interesting if it could "talk" to iTunes on a different host computer..if it couldn't it sounds like it would be some type of hardware problem, and would involve a warranty replacement of the new device.....wish I had a better answer...

Windows 7 detects problem with iPod shuffle and after troubleshooting say it can't fix and disconnects it. What's up?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The music on your shuffle will be in the iTunes library it syncs with.
