IPod sync problem - wrong library but I only have one

trying to sync with either iPod touch or iPod classic. I'm told that both are synced with a "different" library and program wants to delete everything on iPod and replace with this library. but I have done a search and I only have one library on my computer. the library seems to be complete and up to date. Should I go ahead let it delete and replace? Sounds dangerous and drastic.

But my concern is that my ENTIRE library will then be placed on my Touch, where I now only have two playlists plus apps and contacts
So your ENTIRE library conatins more than what is in these two playlists?
If you want to sync only these two playlists...
Select the iPod in iTunes.
Click the Music tab.
Select *Sync music* and *Selected playlists* then tick only the playlists you want to sync.
Add or remove songs from these playlists to change what is on the iPod.
The terminology used by iTunes is very unclear to me.
Okay.
It seems very clear to me.
It tells you it will erase your iPod and add what is in iTunes.
If everything will not fit, it will tell you.

    i've never had but one library on all four previous laptops.     ?como?

    Sometimes a computer glitch wil cause that problem. You just have to restore the iPod and resync.

  • When I connect my ipod to my computer, Itunes tells me the ipod is synced to another account.  I only have one account.  My only account is blank now.  I'm not sure what is going on but I don't want to plug in my iphone or ipad now.

    I need help to sync my ipod.  When connected to my computer, itunes tells me it is synced to another account.  I only have one account.  I had tons of stuff stored on itunes, now my itunes account is blank.  I fear connecting my iphone or ipad now.  I would like to use my itunes to download movies and shows to my ipad2' but I'm not sure I want to risk it.  I have signed onto my husband's computer and tried to assess my itunes account but get the same result!  Help!

    " I had tons of stuff stored on itunes, now my itunes account is blank."
    How did this happen?
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.
    You can sync iphone/ipad to one and only one itunes library at a time. Syncing to another will indeed erase the iphone.

  • I am looking to swtich from an individual creative cloud membership to a team membership, but I only have one employee.  Is it worth it to make the switch to team if we are both only using Photoshop?

    I am looking to swtich from an individual creative cloud membership to a team membership, but I only have one employee.  Is it worth it to make the switch to team if we are both only using Photoshop?

    Hi ,
    Team subscription can be done for only one software ( for example team for Photoshop ).
    The advantage of team is that you have one charge and one invoice for all users.Also when a member of your team leave the company ,you can delete his invitation and assign it to another employee ,you can also add seats if you have additional employee without contacting adobe or changing your plan,you have more storage volume ( 100Gb ).
    Here are the most important advantages but it's your decision .

  • I can't sync and iPad because it says I'm maxed on authorized computers but I only have one.

    Help. I'm in Apple ****. iTunes is telling me that I've activated 5 computers and I can't sync a new iPad. When I look at my account I only have ONE activated. I have to keep deauthorizing and authorizing the same computer over and over to be able to sync the iPad but that only happened once. When I start the sync it then says this over again and I basically have a .9lb paperweight.
    On both iTunes and my account view it shows I have just one computer activated. I delete the computer I'm on and it shows 0 but when I try to sync and then authorize the computer it again shows 5 and says that the apps on my iPad will be deleted if I don't authorize it. I don't want to delete them obviously but I need to get some images on the iPad. I'm a photographer and this is hugely important.
    I've spent probably 2 hours trying to clear this mess.

    Get a newer device. The original iPad can't be updated past 5.1.1.

  • Apple id says my gmail address is already used by another id but I only have one.  I'm trying to change my apple id to my gmail.address

    I want to change my apple ID to my gmail address to use with FaceTime.  I went to appleid.apple.com and signed into my account.  I don't see anyway 'edit' to change my email address.
    When I tried to use it as my alternate, I get the message saying that email is not available because it is being used by another apple ID, but I only have the one.

    I haven't used my Apple ID since I last had an iPhone over 2 years ago. Yesterday when I ordered my iPhone 6 I decided I wanted to create a new Apple ID, because I no longer use the email that I used to use.
    Simply update your old AppleID.

  • Updates is unavailable for my ID, but i only have one ID.

    I just found a problem today that i am unable to update my apps. It told me that "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded of cancelled' ~ Both iphone and ipad. I am sure i only have one Apple ID. What happen to this ? It only happen today !!

    Yes!  This just happened to me today as well, and I only have one Apple ID which is signed in correctly. I have no clue what is going on. It is frustrating to be unable to update my apps.

  • ITunes says I have the max (5 computers) authorized, but I only have one..

    Upgrading my operating system and re-installing iTunes on my PC and it says I cannot authorize this version of iTunes because I already have the maximum number of computers (5) authorized.  As far as I know, I only have one.  How can I somehow "reset" my iTunes account so that other older computers I may have had in the past are no longer authorized?

    You need to Deauthorize all then authorize what you want.
    See this -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

  • How to sync with Firefox sync after reinstalling Windows? I only have one device.

    Just like this user I was syncing only one device. After reinstalling windows, I can't reconnect and I don't have the recovery key...
    What can I do? To access my bookmarks, favorites, etc?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately I'm missing the recovery key and don't synch with other devices so I guess that means I'm out of luck...
    Maybe this is something that can be added to the roadmap for future improvements. I don't see a reason why you can't get your information back after a reset if you've only got one device.

  • TS2446 iTunes will not let me sign in with my ID, it asks me to use another ID but I ONLY have one? This is the first time that this has happened and as far as I am aware there are no problems with my account.

    Why has my iTunes suddenly been blocked, every time that I try to sign in it asks me to use another ID?

    Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466, and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

  • HT204053 My husband and I both have iPhones but we only have one iPad. We use the same apple ID because we also share the same email address. How would this work with iCloud because we don't share the same contacts?  Thanks Elainecontacts

    My husband and I both have an iPhone and we share an iPad. We also share the same email address so how would this work with iCloud because we don't share all the same contacts?
    Thanks

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user.  That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) .  When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device.  You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc.  itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
    It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.

  • I have Verizon FiOS service for phone, internet and TV but I only have one TV hooked up for it for just basic cable service with no DVR and no need for widgets.  Can I use an Airport Extreme as my router and not use the FiOs router?

    I want to use an Airport Extreme as my router.  I currently have a Verizon FiOS router.  I have Verizon for phone, internet and TV.  However, TV-wise, I just have a basic service for one TV with just a regular box.  No HD, no DVR.  Don't need access to a menu, widgets, on-demand.  Can I eliminate the FiOS Router and just use the Airport Extreme and still have phone and internet?

    I know that it will increase my wireless coverage in my house but will it increase the speeds?
    Not sure what you are asking here.  The AirPort Extreme is only going to be as fast as the Internet connection that it receives.....which is 75/75. It cannot take a 75/75 connection and make it go any faster.
    If you locate the AirPort Extreme in an area where you need more wireless signal coverage, the AirPort Extreme would deliver 75/75 in that area.  But, keep in mind that the AirPort Extreme must connect to the FIOS router using a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection.
    If you are asking if the AirPort Extreme can wirelessly connect to the FIOS modem router, and extend the FIOS wireless network, the AirPort Extreme would not be compatible with a FIOS product for that purpose.

  • Two serial numbers requestet - but I only have one

    Hello, I bought a version of lightroom 5 today and downloaded it. Now I wanted to start the program and it asked for two serial numbers. The actually serial number was sent per Email but it also asked for an older serial number, but this is the first program I bougt and I do not have any other number. Does anyone has an idea. Sorry if my english isn't perfect. Greets Franzi

    you must have purchased an upgrade.  in that situation you will be prompted for the lr 5 serial number and then when the installer fails to find a qualifying product (eg, a previous lr version), you are prompted for the previous versions serial number.
    if you don't own a previous version, you purchased the wrong lr version (ie, an upgrade).  Return, cancel, or exchange an Adobe order

  • I subscribed to Premium but I only have one month free.

    I bought a $10 Spotify giftcard and on the front it says 'Spotify Premium - 1 Month', but on the Spotify app it said I could pay $0.99 for three months free. Why is it only one now?

    Hi @baby-girl,
    If you use a giftcard this option isn't available.
    You had to make a subscription with your PayPal for example to use such special deals. But often such deals are only active for people who want to join Premium for the first time...

  • Two iPhones showing in iTunes but I only have one

    I had to get my original iPhone (bought 9/26) replaced because it kept mysteriously turning off. I now have two iPhones showing up in iTunes. Ones says "iPhone" and one says "Lisa's iPhone". ANy way to combine these and get rid of one of them?
    Thanks.
    LIsa

    Lisa,
    Where are these two iPhones showing up? Is it in the left-hand Source List of iTunes under the Devices heading? Or are they showing under Edit > Preferences > iPhone?
    If they are both showing under the Devices header in the Source List, what happens when you disconnect the iPhone? Do both disappear or only one?
    If they are showing in the Preferences window, then that is actually a record of the different backups iTunes has made for each iPhone. If the preferences and settings on your new iPhone are how you would like them, then you can remove the old backup.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.
