Outlook and iTunes, Home vs. Work Computer
I've been wanting to use my iPod as sort of a PDA. I understand how to sync with Outlook and all that.
If I sync my work computer's Outlook with my iPod, can I then sync my iPod with my home computer and have all my contacts synced to my home computer?
hiya!
hmmmm. i guess it's going to depend on things like your administrative privileges on the work PC as opposed to your home PC, how fast one is at importing, and whatnot.
it might be worth starting off by doing a few trials on each computer to see how well they work with itunes and the ipod. then if you decide to settle on one rather than the other, the following resources might be helpful when it comes to consolidating everything back on one PC:
Using iPod with multiple computers
Transferring songs to iPod using iTunes
Copying music between authorized computers with iTunes for Windows
(or if you decide to do the multiple computers thing, they might be helpful for that too.)
love, b

I recently downloaded a movie from itunes from my work computer and now I can't get it on my home computer. I have already hit the button add recent downloads. Any suggestions?
If it's a purchase, click here and follow the instructions.
If it's a rental, you can't.

I have an iphone and ipad but no other computer at home. I used to have itunes on my work computer. How to I access and make changes to my itunes without another computer? thanks
At this point you have the option of keeping a device optimized version (lower resolution version) of your photo on your phone while iCloud stores a full resolution version. Or keeping the full resolution version on both your phone and the iCloud. If you delete the photo on your phone it will be deleted on the iCloud. I know, bummer. Also it should be noted that the photos app and the library are still in beta and to this point i see why. I would use dropbox or a smiliar app for off device storage.
So far this is how it has been working/not working for me. Whether or not I choose to keep originals or optimized on my phone it will only keep the originals and it has only been uploading lower resolution versions of my photos to the iCloud library. Seems to be working in reverse.
Again these are still in beta so i am hopeful that this will be fixed in the near future.
I hope this helps. -
I wish to transfer all the music on my ipod (synced with my home computer) to my itunes on my work computer. Is this possible? I am concerned if I plug my ipod into the work computer, which has itunes but no music content, that it will automatically sync and wipe all the content from ipod. Can anyone advise?
Only if you use a third-party utility such as Phone to PC and only if you use the same Apple ID for your other computer.

can I download itunes on my work computer, log into with my apple ID and still have my music library at work?

If your employer allows you to do that, then yes.

Music you have purchased from the iTunes Store, yes.
Music you have put in your iTunes Library from other sources, no, unless you have subscribed to iTunes Match and all your songs are stored in Apple's iCloud as well. -
cant install Itunes on my work computer, get error message: "Apple Application support not found, so i uninstall and reinstall again and its the same message
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

Trying to play iPhone library through iTunes on my work computer
I have my iPhone synced with my home computer. I authorized my computer at work (HP laptop) in iTunes with my iPhone connected and recognized. When I click on the iPhone in iTunes, I can see all of the music, but it is grey and you can't click on any of the songs. I just want to be able to play the songs, not transfer them. If anyone knows how to do this, I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks!Is this still the case or have I missed another topic when searching? Its really quite annoying I only want to play my music through iTunes on a work computer (effectivly read only)

My wife had an iPad for a year and synced to our computer with no problem. I recently received an ipad2 and when I tried to sync using separate apple and iTunes passwords, under her computer user name, it appears I over-road her account and synced all her apps with my apps on my iPad. I then set myself up as a new user on our computer and tried to sync. I now get the error that my iPad is synced to another library. How can I start over without erasing all my data on the iPad?
Go back to her login. Unless you deliberately erased apps, they should all be there, both yours and hers! Then, you need to set up each iPad separately. You will notice that they have separate names for that very purpose.
There is no problem with multiple Apple IDs on the same iTunes on the same computer except... Apps are permanently associated with the ID that was originally used to obtain them. If you choose to update an app from inside iTunes and you're logged into the "wrong" ID, you must log out and back in again.
On the bright side, you can configure either or both iPads to sync with apps and music and movies, etc. from either or both IDs. Further, if you choose to update the apps from the iPads themselves, there is no need to log out/in. The device handles that. All you need is the correct password. In my case, I use the same password for both IDs to make things easier. -
I have a Mac Pro tower am running OSX and iTunes will not work. It has always worked flawlessly. I can see all my iTunes content- my playlists, my songs et cetera, But I cannot play anything. The progress bar is 'stuck'...any suggestions?
Thanks. I have been using iTunes since its inception and have never had a problem...I'm using the latest version. The progress bar is the bar that moves when you're playing a song..it just won't start when I double click on a song,..have tried quitting, rebooting etc but nothing works. Apple are useless-they have told me twice they've tried to call me 'momentarily', but I've been waiting by the phone, and they definitely have not tried to call...

After a rescent update on my ipad 3 I can no longer connect to my pc with WIFI. I have tried resetting ipad and itunes but nothing works. Talked to support and they were no help. Any suggestions?
What error do you get if any?
Have you tried connecting to another network besides your own?
Do you use DHCP on your router or static IP address? -

Reloading ipod and itunes on a new computer
I am trying to reload ipod and itunes on a new computer I recently bought. Because of disc management issues, I had these on an external drive (assigned the letter "F") on my old system. The letter "F" is assigned to a disc drive on my new computer. Every time I try to load ipod or itunes, the installer sequence tells me there is no available memory on drive F of the new machine (true enough), but will not let me re assign to a new drive.
suggestions on how to resolve this?
many thanks. BillDownloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Howdy. My Music player has stopped working, but regular sounds and iTunes samples still work?? Can anyone help.
Push the orange music button and the player opens, but when I push the play button nothing happens other than the pause icon comes up.
Both side volume and the onscreen volume read at full.-restore ipod to latest ios if problems still happenes then it's a hardware problem nothing like a good old appointment at genuis bar would help.
