Purchased music on more then one iPod?

I'm traveling and purchased music for my laptop computer which is usually used for my daughter's iPod Shuffle. How do I put the purchased music on my iPod without replacing the music library from my home computer with the library from my laptop? The laptop iTunes recognizes my iPod but won't let me drag the songs to it.
Put another way, can I play the purchased songs on more then one iPod?

Does this help?

  • Why cant i sync music from more then one computer without having to erase the music already on my ipod??

    I have music on my ipod and i want to add more music from a diffrent computer but everytime i try it tells me i have to erase all the music already on my ipod. ihave tried to do multiple things and it does not seem to work.

    Yes, you can use the one that's not broken. It just doesn't have the same stuff as your iPod. So when you sync the content will be erased. If you have a backup, then you can save your iPod content. Anyway, those songs, apps and books you purchased from iTunes can be re-download free of charge.

  • Putting games on more then one ipod

    i have purchased texas hold em from the istore. the girlfriend and i have different ipods. can i put the game on hers or does she have to purchase her own copy. thanks

    If they are both video ipods, you should be ok
    do you sync from different users, if so, locate the games original directory on your girlfriends user (probily my documents/my music/iTunes/ipod games/) and drag it into her itunes window, if it asks punch in your username and password for itunes, sync, then weyhey, done! (me hopes)
    Goodluck

  • Can I have more than one ipod with more than  music library on one computer

    I was just wondering if i could have 2 different ipods (one a 5th generation and the other ipod touch) with 2 different music libraries on the same computer and itunes? because right now im using my parents computer and my fiance is using my laptop and we're moving so we'll only have one computer in the next few weeks. So if anyone could try to give me an answer or have a solution that would be fantastic lol!

    See these articles about using more than one iPod on one computer, and with either one or more iTunes libraries.
    Multiple iPod installations.
    How to use multiple iPods with one computer.
    If you have the latest iTunes, an easy way to create a new library is to hold down the 'alt' key whilst opening iTunes (for Macs), or hold down the 'shift' key (for Windows).
    This will give you the option of either using the current iTunes library or creating a new one.
    There are various methods of transferring different songs to different iPods with a single iTunes library.
    One is to manage the songs manually.
    With this setting, you can drag and drop songs/playlists etc onto the iPod from iTunes, and also delete and/or edit songs which are currently on the iPod without affecting the iTunes library.
    If you wish to keep the convenience of automatic sync, then you could set the iPods to sync with "selected playlists". This setting can be found in the iPod summary screen under the 'music' tab. With this setting, different playlists can be transferred and later deleted from each iPod without affecting any playlists stored in iTunes or the playlists on the other iPods.
    Also, on the 'summary' main page you will see the option to "only sync checked items". With this setting selected, if you remove the check marks from any songs in iTunes, they will not be transferred to the iPod. You can restore the check mark if you want to put the songs back on the iPod at a later date.
    Be aware that when playing songs in iTunes, any songs that do not have a check mark against them will be skipped over and will not be played.

  • HOW DO I USE MORE THEN ONE ITUNES WITH MY IPHONE WITHOUT ERASING MY MUSIC?

    I have two different laptops with iTunes on it. I use both of them but my iPhone only works with one iTunes. I plug it into the computer and it says that my iPhone cannot use more then one iTunes. Is there a way I can use both or no?
    YES I AM CLICKING MANUELLY ADD SONGS TO MY iPhone.
    I just bought my iPhone about a week or so ago.
    Please help ASAP.

    I clone my library to a portable drive using SyncToy 2.1, a free tool from MS. I run this both at home & work so that I essentially have three identical copies of my library for backup redundacy, any of which I can use to update my iPods and my iPhone. I use iTunes Folder Watch occasionaly in case I've managed to download, for example, a podcast at one location but overwrite the library with a newer copy updated at the other. It can be done but you need to take considerable care...

    iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

  • Using More Than One iPod On One Computer

    Hi everyone,
    I am sure my question will be an easy one to answer for the right person - who will no doubt have more experience than Apple's helpline which I just tried.
    I have a 60gb iPod with Colour display, which syncs with my iTunes (version 7.0) (currently at about 45gb) on a Windows XP machine. I have seen the new range of iPods and am very keen on getting one of the new Shuffles. My question is: can I use both iPods with the same iTunes, same music library, and on the same computer.
    Any responses would be very gratefully received. If anyone happens to know what the student discount (as in how many %) is on the Apple Store then I'd also like to know.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Edd

    Yes, you can use more than one iPod on the same computer.
    If you don't want the same music on both, this article discusses two methods of setting it up:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
    My wife and I use Method Two in that article, and include the Recently Added smart playlist so that if either of us adds a song, it will be on both iPods for a few weeks.
    The one thing to keep in mind is you will want to avoid having them both connected simultaneously. This article has more information:

    So I had to make a SSD or sequence Diagram now we have to make a multi design diagram?
    for the multi design. will we just be creating one big diagram of the assignment for this part?
    or is it going to be a collection of a bunch of separate diagrams. as books shows a few of them? regarding layers?
    For example create a diagram to cover all different layers/steps
    So should be a collection of 3 or more diagrams for Part 3 of TMA3
    do I have this correct?

    Just click on "Buy" one at a time. If you do them all in one sitting, they will be grouped as a single charge on your credit card.
    Some online music download stores have the ability to combine multiple miscellaneous tracks into a single zip file for purchase and download, but the iTunes Store does not work that way.

  • How do I sync more than one Ipod on Itumes (MS Version)

    Hi everyone.
    I have two different Ipods that I want to sync to the same computer, but with different music. I use one Ipod in the car and another at night to listen to relaxing music. Is there anyway to sync more than one Ipod on the same computer so that both have different files on them?
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    I used to have two computer, aech one with a diferent IPods. Both are now broken. I get two new computers, MacBook and IMac.
    *Question: Can I sync my two IPods in both computers without loosing my songs and how?* Remember, I lost all my info in the old computer, everything that I have is in those IPods.

  • How Can I Update More Than One Ipod on the Same Computer?

    I've had my 30G Ipod since April 2006. For Christmas 2006, I bought my sister a 2G Ipod. I cannot figure out how to put songs on her Ipod as we both share the same computer and Itunes Library. I've already asked Ipod Corporate for help via their FAQ section regarding more than one Ipod operating with the same computer, but their advice (which told me to create a playlist small enough for her Ipod and checked as a shared playlist) did not work for me. I'd really appreciate any help with my problem. Owning an Ipod but being unable to listen to it, as I'm sure many people would agree, is quite annoying.

    There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
    a) Sharing a single iTunes library and user account.
    b) Creating multiple user accounts and having separate libraries.
    Sharing a Library
    If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all 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 some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    However since you seem to have a problem with that method you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
    Separate User Accounts
    Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
    If you are unfamiliar with setting up Windows user accounts you can read more here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

  • Can I use more then one apple ID on my computer/osx app store

    Hi,
    I use my MBP/iMac/ipad/iphone for both business and home.  Right now everything is setup to my home apple id (and I have made quite a few purchases with that).  With the release of the osx app store and FCPX,  my company wants to buy these for my computers.  But they want to do this on their apple id.  Can I run more then one id on a mac?  How can I make this work as I know they will want me to start getting more apps as they are released.

    You can have apps from multiple Apple IDs on one Mac. The issue will be that to update Mac apps bought with A ID #1 will require signing into A ID #1 in the MAS. And later when apps bought with A ID #2 need an update you will need to sign into A ID #2 in the MAS to update them. If you can keep that straight and can abide that requirement, there should be no issues.
    The same will be true to update iOS apps, but using iTunes.

  • Since iTunes 7 can't import more then one song at a time

    When I use File> Add file to library, I can no longer import more then one song. If I select more then one file, iTunes wont import anything. I have my music download to my main iTunes folder, therefor I dont want to use add a folder, also there often is other songs I dont want to import at that time. I can drag and drop from explorer, but its annoying.
    Not a terrible bug, but another in the long list for iTunes 7.

  • More then one student license on same account

    Hello. Can i have more then one student license on same account. The 60% of thingy. One for home, one for work and one for the notebook. They may run simultaneously because of the friends using the computer. All 3 computers will use same account name and password.

    You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
    If you install on a third computer, it will request you to de-activate on the other two computers.  You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
    If you regularly need to use the Creative Cloud on more than two computers then it would be best to purchase an additional subscription.  This is the same licensing btw which we have for our prepetual product.  An advantage though for Creative Cloud over the perpetual product is that you can install on Mac and Windows with the same subscription!
    As it stands, the EULA states that you can install it on up to two computers at a time, however, you cannot use applications on those computers simultaneously. This is the case even when you are not using the same application
