TS1363 I'm trying to set up my new ipod nano, it appears in windows and not in itunes- if I reinstall itunes, will the files of other ipod users on the computer be lost?

I'm trying to up my new Ipod Nano, it appears in Windows and not in Itunes, if I reinstall Itunes, will files previously set up by other Ipod users sharing the computer be lost?

You said " I sign in but her music list shows up mixed with about 1/3 of mine."
Sign in where?
What music list?
It also sounds like that computer is not authorized for the account. You can only have 5 computers authorized for one account. If yo go to iTunes>Store>View account and then sign in it will tell you how many (but no what computers) are authorized. There is no way to find out what computers are authorized.
You can deauthorize all computer once a year.
See:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

    Some free advice.  If your son is 8 years old, put him on your account, and set parental controls so that he cannot accidentally run up giant charges within the games.
    If your son is 25 years old, get him his own AppleID and make him responsible for his own bills.
    In between ... use your judgement. 

  • Just tried to set up my new Ipod touch but nothing restored

    Just Tried to set up my new Ipod touch and it does recognize it bu tI did not get any of my music or books or  notes, nothing, what's up?

    How did you restore?
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:        
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store         
    Notes are associated with the iCloud ID used. Are y using theme ID as the old device?
    Do they still show on the old device?

  • TS1363 "iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes" Isn't working!

    I've tried all of the things in the "iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes" but none of them work.
    I'm on Windows 8 and those are the instrucations I've followed.
    The only thing I haven't done is reset my computer to factory mode but that Isn't an option for me cause I got saved games that can't be backed up.
    I've literaly tried everything in that help page and it doesn't work.
    All I get is the iTouch charging, asking me to trust the computer, I say trust, nothing happens, I check the device manager and it doesn't shw the USB no matter what, I restart the ipod services and the apple software services, nothing happens, I completely take dwn my McAfee firewall and scanning system, it doesn't work, restarting it to make sure no viruses attack, uninstalled Razer Synapsis because it has been a pain in the butt before, that doesn't work, I emptied my Temp file and that didn't work, And in the end the iTouch is charging but not even being see by Itunes and no updates, restarts, reinstallations, uninstallations, checking, researching, and anything else I can do works.
    Can someone please explain why apple tech is such a pain when it comes to Windows 8 and how I can fix this without losing 2 years worth of school and saved games?!?!?!?

    Try a full teardown as in Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates?
    A recent poster to forum is suggesting uninstalling WMP from Windows?
    Connect the device to a different compuer and back it up there. You should be able to copy off the library to a portable hard drive. See also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I tried to set up my new ipod shuffle and a error message popped up saying Ipod not found cannot update.  I can't sync my ipod now but it is showing on itunes.  What should I do?

    I bought a new 4th gen ipod shuffle and tried to sdet it up last night.  I installed the latest itunes software and started to sync my ipod, but error boxes kept popping up saying ipod not found cannot sync.  It was showing in itunes, then it would disappear, then it would come back.  I am not very good with computers so I don't know what to do.  Can someone help?

    Do you have an iCloud backup?  If you backed up your old phone to iCloud you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Erast All Content & Settings (which will erase your phone), then go back through the setup screens again and when prompted choose Restore From iCloud Backup.  However your backup won't contain everything in your iTunes library (such as your music) so you'll need to be able to sync with your computer unless you purchased everything from iTunes and want to redownload it to your phone.

  • I am trying to set up my new ipod touch and the system does not recognize my apple id.  How do I reset and start again.  I'm not sure what to do now.

    I can be reached at this email during the day [email protected]

    Try to change your Apple ID back to your old email address (http://appleid.apple.com) in order to set up and activate the phone. After the set up please sign out of iCloud and turn off "Find My iPhone" (Settings > iCloud) - do that on all your devices -, then change your Apple ID to your new address again and then add your iCloud account on you devices again.

  • Trying to set up brand new iPod shuffle (4th gen) in iTunes, but it says "The iPod software update server could not be contacted."

    I just bought a 4th generation iPod shuffle from the store.  At the end of the iPod set-up in iTunes, whenever I click "done" a message pops up that says, "The iPod software update server could not be contacted."

    Hello, curieuse. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when receiving this error.

  • Trying to set up a new ipod touch

    Keep getting the msg server error, what should we do differently?

    You can't have multiple IDs on one account, but you can use multiple IDs for different purposes on the same device.
    Just use the one AppleID for iTunes and the AppStore so you can all share your music and app purchases. Then each person should have their own individual AppleID with associated iCloud account for mail, contacts, calendars, iMessage and FaceTime.
    You don't have to use the same AppleID for all services.

  • TS1363 I pad is registering in windows and not in itunes

    I just bought an Ipad from Sams club and When I came home to sync it my computer windows is registering it but not itunes so therefore I have not been able to sync it and of course Apple care support keeps hanging up on me

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
    If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • HT201274 If you erase your iPod content, would it erase the music from the iTunes on the computer which that iPod is connected with?

    I'm giving away my old iPod touch so I want to restore everything, deleting all content but I also have an iPhone connected to the same iTunes account on my laptop. If I restore all music, setting, apps, etc. will it also erase all those things from my iTunes on my laptop?

    No. Erasing your iPod wiol not effect iTunes on the computer.

    I am trying to set up a group contact for my golf league, but can't find a way to do this on the iphone

    That's because you can't.  You make the contact group on the computer application with which you're synching your contacts.  Or you can find an app in the app store.

    Lost all contact info.  All my Aps are there but all the data/progress is missing.  When I plug my iphone into the usb fto synch up with my itunes on the computer a message comes up and says "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup file".  This is very frustrating

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.
