  • Multiple iPods on one Itunes account

    I have had an iTunes account on my laptop for years, and have it currently hooked in withan iTouch.
    My fiance just recently bought a new iPod, and I am wondering if I can hook her new iPod to my laptop w/ the iTunes account, and not ruin anything?
    Also, she is about to buy a new laptop, so if she can put music on her new iPod from my iTunes account, when she puts her new iPod on the new laptop, will it wipe it off?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Make sure each iPod has a unque name and just connect the iPods to the computer one at a time. Check the apps and other items that you want synced to each iPod.  Also see:

  • Syncing multiple ipods to one itunes account

    I have two ipods nano's and two shuffles. I'm having difficulty getting the twonano's to sync to aone account. One is recognized, when the second is plugged in, the sync ipod options is greyed out and not available. I haven't got past this to try the shuffles yet. Any help? All of the directions that I find state that it should plug and play by merely plugging the second in in and selecting sync......

    Check your update preferences. Click on the picture of the iPod in the left pane of iTunes. This will bring up the tabs in the main pane to the right. In the first tab "Summary" check to see if your iPod is set to "manually manage songs and playlists" if it is remove the checkmark and the one against "enable disk use" and click "Apply", your iPod should sync automatically after that.
    If it's not set to manual and still won't sync then try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • Is it possible to synch multiple iPods to one iTunes library?

    Hi --
    I had an old Windows XP machine sitting around with a pro sound card, so I put a 1 TB SATA drive in it and use it as my iTunes machine in my living room. The plan is to put ALL of my 1400+ CD collection into iTunes as full-fidelity WAV files (yes, I can hear a difference, and no, you can't convince me to do otherwise - there are a lot of advantages of using WAV files if you've got the space). Doing this, of course my entire record collection will not come close to fitting on one 160 GB iPod, but in reality I don't need to carry the whole thing around at one time anyway -- BUT -- I do figure I will probably need two iPods to carry around everything I need (I mostly play music in my car and on my boat; don't really use headphones much), AND I can probably separate things reasonably by genre: Rock on one, Blues & Jazz on the other. So my question is this: Is it possible to synch two iPods to the same iTunes library? Are there any problems with this?
    Another question for anyone from Apple: Any plans to offer at least 8X oversampling on an iPod? Even when using WAV files, connected to my control room monitors an iPod still doesn't sound as good as playing CDs on a decent quality DVD player.
    Thanks!

    If you want differnt selections of tracks on each iPod, simply create a playlist for each user and on the Music tab use the options to sync music to selected playlists. I manage our four iPods this way. Rather than use manual playlists I have used the grouping field to record which iPod each track belongs on, e.g. Alice/Bob/Charlie and create smart playlists to be synced to the ipod, e.g. *Grouping contains Alice*. An advantage of using this approach is that the grouping information is stored in the file's tag rather than the iTunes library which makes it a simple matter to recreate the playlists if you ever have to rebuild your iTunes library from scratch. (Since .wav files don't have tags this won't help the original poster)

  • Question about syncing multiple ipods to one iTunes library

    I have an iPod touch (2nd gen Ver 3.1.3) that I sync to my computer. My daughter recently got an iPod touch (2nd gen Ver 4.0) that was under her father's account. I reset her iPod in order to put it under my iTunes store account. Next I synced her iPod with my computer adding only the items she wanted (games mostly and a few songs).
    iTunes didn't seem to have a problem with our devices being different versions. So far so good. I have only synced her device once and haven't synced mine since. We have both purchased apps straight to our iPods and they aren't backed up.
    My questions are:
    1. Before syncing, will I have to go check everything I want every time in iTunes?
    2. We use some of the same apps and games. Will the game data and/or app data be written by another players data? Can you tell I'm really just concerned about my TapFish score?
    I'm holding off on syncing until I know the answers.

    well, it would be better to keep everything checked in your library and instead create separate playlists for each mobile device.

    you can use as many mobile devices as you want with a single iTunes library. iTunes treats each device separately.
    i have two Nano's, an iPod Touch, and an iPad syncing with the same library.

  • Multiple iPods for one iTunes Library

    Hi all,
    I currently have a 1st gen iPod Shuffle. I'll be getting a new Nano soon, and am wondering if BOTH iPods will be adle to use the same library.
    I.e, if I plug the shuffle in and update the songs, will I be able to do the same with the Nano?
    Hope this makes sense!!

    I'm currently syncing three iPods to my one library. No problems so far. I have selected the sync only selected playlists option for all of them. This is necessary for even the 60 gig as my library is too large to fit on an iPod. I have some playlists that are for specific iPods and others that I sync to all of them. Now if I could just wean myself down to two...

  • Using multiple ipods on one installation if itunes

    Please help - Is it possible to use multiple ipods with one itunes install with Win XP? background - we have one pc in our family with itunes, I am the only one with an ipod (a nano) my mum and sister want to get ipods too and we have been told all the music would be transferred from the main itunes library to each ipod. We each want our own music area. Is it possible for us each to have a library (or music folder) that won't write over each others ipod? hope this makes sense...I can't find anything clear in the itunes or ipod manual..Jake, aged 9.

    I have the exact same problem..

  • Multiple iPods on one Mac

    I'm a teacher at a music department at a small University. We have digitized our entire CD library to MP3's, and allow students to listen to MP3's at certain designated computers. We protect the MP3's, however, and do not allow students to download them to their own MP3 players, in order to protect copyright law.
    We are considering purchasing iPod Touches for all of our students. What I would like to do have the students sync their iPods at a Mac in our department, and be able to put MP3 files from our library on their device.
    On the Macs in question, the students already have to log in with their University ID, and then they can pull up iTunes and listen to MP3 files on the computer itself.
    Is there going to be a problem with doing this? Can each student log into the same Mac, sync their iPod, and then go on their way?
    Thanks,
    Erin

  • Multiple iPods on One Vista Computer

    I just got a new 3rd generation nano and I'm trying to use both my 2nd and 3rd generation nano on my Vista computer. I want to have different music on each iPod but can't figure out how to do this. Any suggestions? Thanks...

    You can set either or both 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 whenever you choose. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod. 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 either or both of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them:
    Managing content manually on iPod
    iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
    Something to be aware of however when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Need advice on multiple iPods on one computer

    I have found the article on running more than one iPod on a computer. The directions seem simple. I just wanted to post my situation and ask an additional question.
    My wife's laptop recently died but we were able to save the hard drive. So her iTunes library should still be there in tact (everything else is). With the current state of the ecomony we are trying to save money and have her "share" my laptop. Is there a way to copy over her library from that hard drive without screwing up my library?
    In looking at the instructions for running multiple iPods on one computer, option 3 seems like the best method for the time being. I also have an HP Smart Media Server that has an iTunes system for sharing but I have not had the time to explore that in much depth and have not found much in the documentation that comes with the server. I would greatly appreciate any advice you may have.

    Yes, if you are both on your laptop with one windows user login, method 3 can work.....but it can also be really confusing.
    You will both have to train yourselves to ALWAYS do the itunes shift-start before opening itunes, every time. Your ITL file is on the laptop and hers is on the salvaged hard drive. I assume you put it in an enclosure and it's connected via USB?
    You might also need to check the preferences every time.
    For instance if you want your new additions to go to the laptops's hard drive. She wants her podcasts to go to the salvaged drive. You'd have to change your preferences every time using method 3.
    You might want to get he media server going before too much longer! And switch to Method 1 with a shared folder on the server.

  • Adding multiple IPods to one computer

    I would like to connect more than one Ipod to my Itunes. Right now, the second Ipod has a discreet playlist, but I cannot set up playlists under it. Is there a way to have two Ipods with multiple discreet playists connected to one Itunes program running on one computer?

    Are you trying to set up playlists within a playlist? That can't be done I'm afraid. You can choose to sync multiple playlists to the iPod but not create playlists within playlists: How to use multiple iPods with one computer
