Switching iTunes Account on iPod Touch

The iTunes account currently set on my iPod Touch is my fiance's, but I need to switch to my own. The manual says you can sign in to a different account after opening ITunes Wi-Fi, but when I open it, it doesn't give me an option to sign in, nor does it allow me to view any account info. The only options I have are to view iTunes features, top ten, to search, and view downloads. Help? Anyone?

Try changing the account in iTunes and syncing.
I did it once, and I think that's how I did it.

One iTunes account - two iPod Touch...

Here's my problem:
My sons have an iPod Touch each. Occasionally I let them buy apps for their iPods from the Appstore, using my iTunes account. So they each have different apps on their iPods. Now every time I connect one of their iPods to my Mac to update the iPod OS or add pics or music, it also syncs all the apps. This means both of them get all the apps the other one has bought or downloaded. This fills up their iPods and there is no more free space on their iPods. When I unselect the Sync Apps in iTunes it warns me that all existing apps on the connected iPod will be removed.
What can I do??? I basically want iTunes to stop syncing apps, but I don't want my sons to loose all the apps they have on their iPods. Anyone, please?

Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes that the user controls. The same apps can be installed on both devices or different apps on each device, which is selected under the Apps tab for each device.
First disable automatic syncing when each iPod is connected. Under the Apps tab for the first device, deselect automatically sync new apps. Deselect the apps that you don't want installed on the device. Select Apply followed by a sync.
Repeat for the 2nd device.

ITunes account on iPod Touch

Hello to all,
I bought an iPod Touch to my 12-year-old daughter.
So far, I've put my iTunes account on it, so that she gets back apps & games.
But the dark side of it is that she cannot use FaceTime or iMessage, because they are "mine".
If I create a account just for her, will she loose all apps already installed on the device ?
Is there another possibility to allow her to use all iPod's functionnalities ?
Thanks,

You can continue to use the current AppleID just for purchased content. Then, create a new AppleID for her and use that one just for iMessage, Facetime and iCloud.
Since purchases are tied to the AppleID used, nothing will be change as far as the purchased content on her iPod.

Itune account and iPod Touch Autherisation

The iTune in my computer autherised to sync with my iPod Touch & iPad.
I have downloaded Apps for my Ipod Touch & iPad in my iTune account to this autherised computer.
Lately my computer HDD in RAID 0 Stripe having problem in one of the Striped HDD. To cut the long story short, I would need to put in two new HDD in my computer.
Do I first need to go into my iTune account in my failing computer & "De-Autherise" this computer prior to change my HDD so that I will still retain "Rights" to autherise for three other computers for my iPod Touch & iPad?
Do I have to redown load all my bought Apps once the new HDD is installed in my computer? If so That will eat into my monthly download limit with the ISP!!.
Could I avoid this ? This brings to another question If I back up ,How could I selectively reach this download in my computer HD that I could selectively get back to my new HDD that will have the iTune? [I remember last year some one telling as to how to reach the hidden folder in iTune where these downloads are preserved]
Regards

Thak you Illaass for that.
Normally a device is allowed to be Autherized in three computers as I understand. Correct me if I am wrong.
Now the computer that I have autherized is to have new HDD [say if I have two other computer also autherised for these devices + the one I intend changing the HDD = 3 computers].
My question :Would I still able to Autherize my computer for the itune account where I had put in my new HDD?
[My understanding is that when new HDD put in the identity of the computer is changed and the iTume would recognise is as a new computer-Am I correct in my assumption] That is why I wish to learn if I need to Deautherize my computer prior to change the new HDD? [Computer may still bootable I hope!! That another issue]
Regards
PS: If 5 computers could be Autherized then I should not worry I suppose.[I am wrong in assuming that only 3 are allowed to autherized?!!]

Music from old itunes account on ipod touch

I used to have an iphone and had my itunes account on it, where I made many purchases. I got rid of my iphone and didn't use my account for about 1-2 years. Now I have an ipod touch and have logged into my account but can not get my music. When I go on my laptop with my account I can see my purchase history, but it won't let me hear my music. Is there any way to get my purchases if I did not record it?

I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
What is the way to actually contact Apple?
I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . .

Error with iTunes Account and iPod Touch

A few weeks ago, I tried to download an app, and after typing in my password, nothing happened, so i returned to the App Store, and downloaded it again. Suddenly, every app I had ever downloaded on my iPod appeared on the iPod's screen, and began to install one by one. After a day of waiting for it to finish, I deleted them all. Then, a window popped up asking me for my password, which I clicked "cancel" to. Then, it downloaded every app again. After a few days, it would download three or so apps at a time, and sometimes would reload (meaning, it took an app I already had installed, and downloaded it again, removing the original icon). Now, it will only sometimes reload an app. However, the window asking for my password constantly pops up, and no matter how many times I enter my password or click cancel, it won't stop happening. (These pop ups occur about 10-15 minutes apart). I've tried restoring the ipod and logging out of the account, but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?

TS3432 unable to switch between applivations in ipod touch 4

unable to switch between applivations in ipod touch 4.How to.clicking twice homw botton doesnt help.

If you have a 2G iPod, that model does not support mutlitasking and thus ther is not double clicking the Home button.
A 2G can only go to 4.2.1

I've bought a movie in iTunes using my iPod Touch, how can I download the movie for free in my iPad 2?

I've bought a movie, Casino Royale in HD, in iTunes on my iPod Touch using my apple account. I want to put it in my iPad 2 but when I connected to the iTunes using my iPad 2, I got this message: YOU'VE ALREADY PURCHASED THIS. DO YOU WANT TO BUY IT AGAIN?
There's no download icon.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much!

Can you not sync your iPod with iTunes? That should get the movie onto your computer. Now sync your iPad and transfer the movie?

I did both of the above and did a restore from backup but it didn't help.
3) reset networking settings and maybe unplug and replug in your router
I don't think it's a network problem for several reasons. First, I have the exact problem at home and at three WiFi hot spots (McDonald's, the Apple Store, and a shopping mall's network). Second, all other apps that access the Internet are working fine. Third, it's only parts of the App Store and iTunes that don't work. For example, the Update button in the App Store still works but the Featured button still doesn't.
I then went to the Apple Store today and the tech had the exact same problems even after wiping it clean and using their account. They ended up replacing my iPod even though the problem continued on the new one, which hadn't been synced with anything.

YAY! Just checked iTunes via my ipod touch and i've got SOME features back (new releases, genres etc). Still no luck browsing the App Store but i'm guessing this means the problem lays with the stores and not with the ipod itself?
Wish i'd known that before I deleted and reset everything
Yea, I just checked iTunes and some features are working again. Like you, I now I assume the problems are on their end.

My iTunes on my iPod touch is all in Hong Kong dollars where as it should be in English pounds. What should I do?

My iTunes on my iPod touch has changed from pounds to Hong Kong dollars and I want it to change back as I can not buy anything. What do I do to fix it? Please help. Thanks x

Take a look at the troubleshooting steps provided by Apple in this support article:

Hope those help.
Your iPod touch will never appear in Windows Explorer, by the way. It doesn't have the "disk mode" that the older iPods did.

Itunes sees my ipod touch but not my ipod classic; windows 8 sees each of them

I had an ipod classic 80Gb (older device - 4th gen?) as my daily device, a 16gb touch (newer one - 4th I think) as a backup when my ancient PC crashed and died, had to get a new one. This happened 1st of Sept. New PC has windows 8, and I downloaded latest itunes onto it. This latest itunes recognizes my ipod touch, even synced my new library with it (yes, I had to completely redo my playlists etc after the crash as itunes would not recognize the old library I had had on the ipod). But plugging my (older ?) ipod classic into the same usb port, itunes does NOT even recognize that there is an ipod. Here is what happens :
An olive green windowlet comes up (from itunes ?), beeps at me, tells me "there is a problem with this drive please scan the drive now and fix it". I assume it means the drive with the ipod in it because the beep happens right after I plug in the usb cable. I can see this usb port on windows file system, it says "ipod", and can, after some waiting, see the directories... iPod_Control > Music > Fxx etc., under which there appear to be songs ... mp3 and m4a and wav files, but their names are abbreviated with 4 caps, eg. IXOK.mpe, IPDT.mp3 ... but the little earphone symbol shows beside so possibly I could even play one were I to double click it (default player might come up etc.)... have not tried this yet. The default player mentioned would be itunes, but here is a problem : the whole time that my unrecognized-by-itunes ipod is plugged into the usb, itunes is completely hung up... can't even move the window across the screen. Once I pull the thing out of the usb, itunes is fine again.
This ipod that is not recognized has also been behaving as if it needs a new battery ... does not hold a charge more than a couple of hours... this has been the case since shortly before the new computer, however during the time that there is a charge it does play songs, ff, etc just like always. So I am not sure if this has anything to do with somebody's (itunes' ?) perception that "there is a problem with this drive..."...

I ended up Erase and Syncing again just like I was moving to a new iTunes library. The relationship between my iPod Touch and iTunes got messed up. Everything else was fine. Once I did that everything backed up and re-synced fine.
So glad I didn't have to restore. The weird thing that happened was I canceled out from the Erase and Sync both times and iTunes still attempted to do it anyway. Once I let it, it worked fine.

Can I get a refund on a game I purchased and downloaded in Itunes for my Ipod Touch 4g?

Would like to know if I can get a refund for a game purchased and download in Itunes on my Ipod Touch 4g that wasnt what I thought it would be and I dont like the game. Hope Im not stuck with it.

All sales are final. It sounds like you did notdo yourhomewok before yu purchased the app. That is not Apple's fault.
