Putting Itunes on more than 5 computers - is that devices or computers?

Hello,
We have a number of macbooks, ipads, ipods and one macs. What are considers computers for those itunes licenses? We get the warning about deauthorizing if we want to put it one of the macbooks. I'm not sure if we had old macbooks that we reformatted and gave away that are considered itunes computers.

computers. iPods, iPads, TVs do not count against the limit.
if you reached the limit, you get the option to *deauthorize all* machines (one a year), then reauthorize those that you still own/have access to.

  • I have music files by the same artist but they are listed in itunes in more than one album hod can i add then to just one album pf that artist

    I have music files by the same artist but they are listed in Itunes in more than one album hod can i add then to just one album of that artist I am using windows 8.1 .

    iTunes will group songs into an album when:
    All songs have the same value for the Album and Artist field, or
    All songs have the same value for the Album and Album Artist field
    All songs have the same value for the Albumfield and the Part of a Compilation flag is checked.
    If you want to group all the songs by one artist into a single "album" you can do so by following one of these rules.  However, it may be more useful to create Playlists to group music like this and retain the original release information.  One Smart Playlist for each artist you're interested in would meet this need without over-writing information about the source albums.

  • How to make iTunes support more than just one harddrive

    The title of this topic says it all: How do I make iTunes support more than just one harddrive? I cannot afford to buy a really huge drive just because iTunes doesn't support more than one.
    There must be a way around this! Anyone?

    I sure hope so. I run iTunes on an iBook G4 with limited space. I've got about 15gigs of music on an external harddrive. I only use the harddrive at home so I like to keep a handful of albums with me on the lappy. There should be some way to designate a primary folder on the laptop for imports, and a secondary (external or whatever) for the bulk of the library. Maybe some nifty way to do quick transfers between them within iTunes. Like a relocate function.
    Say I want the new death cab for cutie album on the laptop this week, but next week I want to swap it out with something new that comes out. It would be nice to highlight an album and select "transfer to secondary" so that iTunes can move the files for you, keep them organized, and keep track of them.
    That doesn't sound so difficult...

    Yes, you can install them on more than one device.

    As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

  • Can you install itunes on more than one computer?

    Hi all,
    I want to install the software for my first-generation ipod mini on my friend's computer, but I heard somewhere that you can only install the software on one computer and obviously I also want to be able to use it with my own computer as well. Can you install itunes software that comes with your ipod mini on as many computers as you want or only one?
    Many thanks,
    Samantha

    Sure you can. But instead of using the (more than likely) outdated CD, see the iTunes Download Page

  • ITunes on more than one computer - how??

    iTunes tells me I'm registered on more than one computer, but I'm not aware of it!
    1) How do I find out which computers I'm on? I can't find where to go.
    2) How do I delete them if I don't want them?

    There is no way to tell what specific computers are authorized. Apple can't track them...only count them.
    You say you were unaware that you had two authorized. Have you perhaps replaced the hard drive in your computer? If so, that would count as a second one if you didn't deauthorize it before the hard drive replacement.

  • Can I load my Itune on more than one computer?

    Can I have ITunes installed on more than one computer, and sync with I-Phone and IPAD2?  How do I keep the files the same on both computers?

    you can authorize up to five computers you control for your iTunes store account.
    you can use home sharing to keep the libraries on them in sync.
    by design, iPhone and iPad can sync with only one library at a time.
    however, you could consider Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod.

  • Can iTunes utilize more than one external hard drive at once?

    A couple of years ago we had the bright idea to get a mac mini with an external hard drive and load it up with movies and such, so when we wanted to watch a tv show or movie, we could just scroll through the titles and pick without having to deal with the actual DVD (the mini is hooked up to a flatscreen tv). Needless to say, this monster has grown to epic proportions and we have since upgraded to 2 external hard drives (totaling 5 TB), and we now use another program that utilizes both hard drives without problem.
    The issue I am having is that we bought an AppleTV tonight, and have not had any problems getting iTunes to see the movies in the "Movies" External HD, but the tv shows are on another External HD and they take up a little more than 345 GB of space. I kinda liked having the two drives separate, but was wondering if there was a way to make the mini think these two drives were just one? I know it is a strange question, but I can't think of a solution at this point.
    Is there a way to tell iTunes to look in two locations for content?

    I am wondering if this set-up will work if I daisy chain the external drives. My iTunes library is stored on a 1.5 TB external drive. I have about 350 GB of storage left. I have been trying to find a way to add a drive instead of replacing the drive with a larger drive. If I can daisy chain, this will allow me to add storage without losing another firewire port. I just want to make sure this all works before I attempt any changes. Thank you.

  • Can you put music in more than one genre without creating a new genre?

    My question is more specific than the subject. Is it possible to put albums and music in more than one genre category and not have it make a new genre in itself?
    (I view my music as a list, column browser on top. Genre is the left-most category and I narrow down what I'm looking for from there, left to right.)
    For example, I would like to have one album (Kundun) in both the "classical" genre category AND the "soundtrack" category. When I highlight the album and view the information("info") and at the bottom write "classical, soundtrack" in the genre drop down box, instead of listing the album in both classical and in soundtrack, iTunes instead creates an entirely new genre called "classical, soundtrack." This defeats the purpose, because it now separates it out from the rest of my classical music, or soundtrack music.
    Is there a solution to get what I am looking for? The album shows up in the soundtrack genre, and can show up in the classical genre.
    Thanks.
    Running iTunes version 9.0.1

    iOS devices and Apple TV's will only send the audio to one Airplay speaker at a time. However, iTunes on a computer will send audio to multiple Airplay speakers. With the help of Home Sharing and Apple's free Remote app on an iOS device you can control iTunes as well as the speakers connected to it.

  • Use of same iTune for more than one iPod

    I need to find out whether I can use the same itune in one computer for more than one iPod nano and one iPod video?

    I looked at the article, but it doesn't help me know how once I have downloaded onto a nano, for example, the itunes knows that the next thing I connect is something different. My son hooked up his 20GB ipod last night after updating his sister's nano and now the itunes thinks his ipod is a nano. How do I get the itunes to recognize his ipod as the 20GB it is?

  • Can I use itunes on more than one computer?

    Hello all, hoping you can help me.
    I have itunes on an old ( and therefore very slow!) laptop. Hoping to get a new laptop soon, but can I just install itunes on this new one and use it with my ipod?
    My ipod is set to update manually so I think it should be ok. Just don't want to do it before asking just in case I lose my music!
    Thanks.

    You're welcome. One word of caution though if you are using an iPod that holds more than your computer and you want to fill it to capacity. If you delete songs from your PC and have no back up other than the iPod you will risk losing them permanently if your iPod fails or you find you have to restore it to solve a problem. You should consider investing in an external hard drive to store/back up your music. Alternatively at the very least back up songs you can't replace such as iTunes downloads to CD or DVD. Forum member Buegie has compiled a very extensive procedure for backing up your music which you'll find at this link: Backing up iTunes. Take care.
