Using an ipod in a different country!

I have a 3rd Generation ipod which i bought in the UK and i used a itunes with my PC, I am now living in Canada and have itunes on the PC i use here but i can not play my music through the PC or upload any music onto my ipod, any suggetions?

forgive me if I'm jumping to conclusions... but it sounds as though you are using 2 different PCs. 1 in the UK, 1 in Canada. If this is not the case then please disregard what I'm about to say.
In order to play music from an iPod on a computer other than the one used to put the music on, you'll need to set the iPod for manual update in iTunes preferences. This will allow access to the music on the iPod for the sake of playback.
Secondly, the iPod can only be updated from one computer or another. You're unable to update the iPod from the music library on two different computers without one erasing the other. If you want to get rid of the music on the iPod the iPod updater can be used to restore it back to factory settings, at which point you should be able to update it on the PC in Canada just fine.
Hope this helps,

  • Using a localization in a different country

    Hi experts,
    I am trying to implement EA-PS (Public Sector) to a country which doesn't have any localization.
    However,  knowing that are several similarities (legislation, reporting, procedures,...) with this one (LOCPTFM – Portugal), is it possible to use Portugal localization in a different country?
    Best regards,
    Pedro Barreiros

    Hi Eli,
    Thank you for your quick answer.
    At OSS note we found a way to instal the Add-on:
    "2.b)  Download
    The software is available on SAP Service Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/SWDC
    -> Download
    -> Installations & Upgrades
    -> Country-specific Add-ons
    -> SAP ERP ES-PS-LOCPT
    -> SAP ERP ES-PS-LOCPT 617
    -> Installation & Upgrade"
    but we can´t find the path/file.
    About this subject, SAP has told us :
    "After checking with Product Manager,  I´m sorry i can not provide you other answer but t he LOCPTFM Add-On is restricted to Public Sector Portugal only .
    In addition you should join an online community and knowledge repository for global exchange of ideas and technical knowledge around my SAP ERP for Public Sector.
    There you can create or find on-line discussion about this topic and more. To access the Public Sector entire Ecosystem,just go directly to: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/forum?forumID=260".
    Is there any mandatory requisite to fullfil?

  • Using a ipod with two different computers...

    I just bought a new laptop and had to download itunes again but when i hook up my ipod it tells me that that ipod is already synced with another computer (my main desktop comp.). Is there a way to use my ipod with two different computers, or can you just use one computer at a time?
    thanks!

    You can use more than one computer, but you'll have to load your iPod MANUALLY if you do, otherwise it will keep erasing things to match the library it's hooked up to.

  • Returning ipod in a different country?

    I was given an Ipod classic as a gift about 2 and a half months ago. At the end of last week, while I was using it, it rebooted itself, loaded as far as the menu screen, and immediately rebooted itself, and has been doing the same thing since then (so, a good couple of days of continually rebooting - its plugged into the mains at the moment). If I run the battery down, as soon as I plug it into a source of power, it does the same thing, and my computer won't recognise it as it doesn't load up for long enough before rebooting.
    Anyway, I tried to get an appointment at a Genius bar in London, but there are none available this week it seems. My problem is that on Sunday, I am leaving England to move to the Netherlands, and I'd like my ipod working before I go. Either I could just take it back to the store and get a replacement (I'm assuming I don't have to go through genius to do this, but they may send it off to check it and I may not get it back before I go, plus will lose the engraving on the back I guess, if they give me a straight swap). But the other option is, that I return it in the Netherlands, and ask them to send me a new one there (with engraving on - it's probably a bit silly, but it was a gift and I'd feel a bit of an idiot if I engraved a lovely message to myself!)
    So, can you return ipods bought in one country to an apple shop in another country? Or does anyone have any better ideas?
    Any advice would be massively helpful!
    Thanks

    As the iPod warranty is worldwide, you shouldn't have any problem filling out the service request when in Holland.
    I've returned an iPod bought in the USA here in England and got a replacement (although it wasn't engraved).

  • HT2864 Hi! is there a way of using my iPod nano with different Nike+ accounts?

    Hi!
    I no longer use my iPod for running since i now have my iPhone 4. I'd like to give it to my girlfriend who is just starting to run. But whenever i open iTunes (even with her account) it automatically connects to my NIke+ account and I can't find the way of linking it with my girlfriend's account.
    Is there any way of doing so? Could anybody please help me?
    Thxxxx

    No.  You can sync content directly from an iPod to another iPod or iPad.  The content you wish to transfer needs to be in your iTunes library first.

  • How can i use my iPod on two different computers?

    I recently bought a new laptop and i plugged in my ipod shuffle but i cant add any new music to it because it was originally set up on my old laptop. Unlike other ipods, when i plug it back into the old laptop, there is no box to check like "Manually manage" or whatver. Is there any way for me to set up my ipod on my new laptop without restoring it to its original settings and losing all the other music?

    If there is no Manually manage music setting, it must be a 1st or 2nd shuffle, not a 3rd or (current) 4th gen shuffle.  The older shuffles act like simple playlists.  You can only associate that shuffle with ONE iTunes library at a time (just as a regular playlist in iTunes belongs only to one iTunes library).
    So, the answer is no.  However, you can put the songs on the shuffle currently into the new computer's iTunes library, then sync the shuffle to that library.
    For songs that you purchased from the iTunes Store, you can re-download them on the iTunes Store Purchased screen.  You can also use iTunes to transfer songs you purchased from iPod to computer. 
    For other songs, you cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer.  But there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your new computer, add them to the iTunes library by dragging the them (or the folder containing the song files) to the iTunes window.  After confirming everything is there, you can sync the shuffle to the new computer's iTunes library.

  • Charging iPod in a different country

    Does anybody know if I will need anything other than a standard plug-in converter to charge my 80GB Classic with the iPod USB Power Adapter from Canada when I go to mainland China?

    No; you can just use the converter. Voltage switching is done by the USB power adapter.

  • Using and iPod with 2 different computers

    As a new iPod user, I am looking for some help!
    Currently, I use iTunes and my iPod with an external hard disc, where my entire library is stored, and my laptop. Now, I would like to use this hard disc with a second computer as well.
    Should I move "iTunes Library.itl" and "iTunes Music Library.xml" from "C" (my laptop's hard disc) to my external hard disc, and then chose the manual synchronisation between iTunes and iPod?
    Thanks in advance for the advice!!!

    Hello podwalker,
    Should I move "iTunes Library.itl" and "iTunes
    Music Library.xml" from "C" (my laptop's hard disc)
    to my external hard disc, and then chose the manual
    synchronisation between iTunes and iPod?
    Yes, I believe that would be the thing to do. Be sure
    to set your manual syncronization for both
    computers.
    If you connect your iPod to a new computer (that now
    would have iTunes on it), however, it may display
    "this iPod is connected to another computer, would
    you like to replace the content?". Be sure to click
    on "NO", and not "yes".

    Thanks iPodnano_1GB!
    Does someone know if I have to create a folder "My music/iTunes" on my external disc and then copy "iTunes Library.itl" and "iTunes Music Library.xml" documents there? How can iTunes know that "iTunes Library.itl" and "iTunes Music Library.xml" are to be found at this new location?
    Is there anything else I should know about this topic?

  • Using power cables from a different country  = fried battery!

    I have purchased a MacBookPro from the US and traveled to Melbourne. I had used my friend's power cables for the same MacBookPro that was bought in Singapore. The batterie was fried and had to be changed immediately. Why doesn't Apple warn us of sharing cables?  Now I have to pay $400 to change my battery!

    Nonsense. The power adapter for all MacBook Pros are multi-voltage capable and will work with voltages from 110-240VAC and 50-60hZ.

  • How to use iphone 4 in a different country

    my cousin is sending me a verizon iphone 4 to Peru South America but I dont know how to get it unlocked. what do I have to do so that I can use it here.

    Not a chance at all with that phone.  The Verizon iPhone 4 is a CDMA only phone.  CDMA phones locked to Verizon cannot be unlocked and will only ever work on Verizon's USA network.
    Tell your cousin to sell it in the USA, as it is useless anywhere else in the world.

  • How to use an iPod shuffle with 2 PC

    Hello
    Definitely, I don't find the option in order to be able to use one iPod on several different PC.
    Each time I connect my iPod shuffle (version 1) to another PC than the previous one, I only have 2 choices :
    - deleting all the files from my iPod and start a new synchronisation, or
    - my iPod is not visible and the manual synchronisation is not available.
    Does someone find out a solution. I'm starting to regret my purchase...
