Using iPod both in Windows and Mac at the same Time?

I was wondering if it was possible to use my brand new ipod both in Mac as in Windows without having to format or restore it every time?
The idea is to use "manually manage songs" on both Operating Systems.
Thanks for your help!

iPods come formatted Windows and will work on Macs and Windows. Unless you Restore it in a Mac, it will stay formatted Windows.
If it doesn't work, put the iPod on Disk Mode and iTunes should recognize in both systems.
If it is formatted Mac, it will not be useable on Windows, even in Disk Mode.

  • Use one external harddrive on both pc and mac at the same time

    i bought an iomega external harddrive today
    can i use it on both mac and pc at the same times?
    for ex:
    when i plug in both computer
    i could able to read and write on the hdd on both computer
    since i format it into 4 partitions (2 journal and 2 doc)
    so i wish i can use them separately in 2 computers

    Hi Jerry_L and welocme to Discussions,
    using such USB or Firewire connected external harddrives with two computers at the same time is usually not recommended by the manufacturer.
    Doing so might lead to data-loss and the like.
    Check with the manual of that harddisk to verify.
    Using it with one computer at a time with your partitioning should be doable.

  • Using a Dell 2407WFP with two Macs at the same time?

    Hi ... I have a Dell Ultrasharp 24" WFP display that I was using with my old G4. Connectivity isn't the issue ... it works beautifully on both the G4 and my new Mini. I've read that I can put the VGA cable on the G4 (no biggie -- it's what I was using before) and I have the DVI on the Mini.
    What I want to know is: Can I (and is it wise to) have both machines running at the same time and toggle the display between the two or should I keep one machine off when the other is on? There is a button on the display for toggling between a variety of displays.
    I've activated file sharing, etc. on the old box, but there are some things I still can't do unless I'm on the G4 desktop -- mostly my graphic apps. I've been holding off from swapping cables around, but now it's getting to the point that I need to get back on the G4 because of apps that I don't have on the Mini.
    I haven't put the VGA cable back on the G4 yet. It seems like it -should- work -- I just need some verification that it will or won't futz up something. I think what I might be most concerned about is that the monitor isn't powerful enough to run both machines at the same time, but I could be wrong.
    The info at the Dell site is somewhat dated.
    TIA!

    I use a KVM switch with a Dell monitor that has DVI and VGA inputs. I only route the K an M portions (keyboard and mouse) through the switch. The computers connect directly via VGA and DVI to the Monitor, and then I use the monitor's switch to make the video switch. Works fine. Don't worry about taxing the monitor.
    I'd suggest buying the KVM switch from a vendor with easy return policies, since it can take a few tries to find a model you like.

  • How to show a picture both on client and server at the same time (X11?)

    Hi Guys
    I want show a picture on my client as well as on the server(in another location) at the same time, pretty much like showing something both on laptop and on a projector. Assume I have a picture sssss.jpg on the server A1, if I want to open that picture to my client, I can simply to do the following from client A2:
    xhost A1
    telnet to and login A1
    setenv DISPLAY "ipaddress of A2":0.0
    Anyone can direct me how to show picture the client that I am sitting at an also show on the server at the same time?
    Thanks

    VNC would let you do that. With a shared connection, both machines could run a VNC client to the same session.

  • Is it possible to run both Netflow v5 and v9 at the same time

  • My macbook internet download speed is extremely slow. I have tried other computers both windows and mac on the same line and speeds are normal. What is the problem?

    My macbook internet download speed is extremely slow. I have tried 2 other computers, another mac and windows and the download speed is over 10mb but with this macbook pro it is less than 1mb. What is causing this and how to fix?

    To find out how much space you have & what is left, open up Disk Utility/Machintosh HD/First Aid.  The info will be at the bottom of the window.
    Sluggish Finder - Bunch of icons on your desktop?  An overcrowded desktop slows down your Mac.
    Get rid of needless Finder calculations - Open a window in Finder/View/Show View Options:  ensure "Calculate All Sizes" option is unchecked.
    Internet related - It's likely that your broadband connection is the bottleneck.  You can check your speed on http://www.speedtest.net to see how fast your connection is.  If your web browser specifically performs slowly, quit and relaunch it.
       If browser remains sluggish, empty its cache.
    Safari/Empty Cache
    Firefox/Preferences - select the Network tab of the Advanced preferences and click the "Clear Now" button in the "Offline Storage" area.
    Application related - Launch "Activity Monitor" - Applications/Utilities - click the CPU heading and see what float to the top.  If an application takes up a large chunk of CPU and won't let it go, it could be dragging down your Mac's performance.  Quit it by clicking the Quit Process button at the top of the Activity Monitor window.
    Too little ram - max out your ram.

  • Can ipod Nano work on PC and Mac at the same time?

    I have a PC at home, which my iPod is formatted to. I tried to plug it into my iMac at work today and it didn't recognize any of my songs. It gives me the option to erase and sync or transfer purchases, neither of which will let me play anything. If I'm not confused, I was able to plug in my old ipod to any computer and play the songs on it without actually transferring anything - kind of like using iTunes like an iHome or something. Once you ejected your ipod from the "foreign" computer, your songs came with it. Can you not do this anymore? Or is it a mac/PC issue? I'd really like to listen to my music at work. Please help!

    No. Standalone serials are platform specific. You will have to get Creative Cloud or a separate license for your Mac.

  • CC Licence - PC and Mac at the same time?

    I have CC on my windows 8.1 PC - works fine for my current purposes, However if I want to develop an iPad App using InDesgn and Single DPS I need a Mac to complete the Apple process of building the Folio, getting the certificates and actually publishing the App.
    How can I have InDesign CC on both my PC and the Mac (which I have yet to buy!) without breaching Adobe licence rules?
    Or am I allowed to have CC on two different OS machines providing only one is actively being used at any given time?

    Hi las@mubadala,
    As per the following link, it is mentioned under the "Getting Started" menu, that you can install and activate Creative Cloud desktop applications on two computers, regardless of operating system, for the individual associated with the Creative Cloud membership.

  • Pc and mac at the same time

    hey guys it is possible to use time capsule both on mac and xp, i use my mac as main computer and i just want to use my pc *** access random data on time capsule

    OK, so you just want to know how to access the TC from a PC?
    Run Airport Utility from the Mac. Choose "manual setup", then "disks", "sharing".
    Make sure that sharing is enabled. Set the Workgroup name to be the same as the Workgroup name set on the PC. The default for XP is "Mshome".
    You should now be able to use the TC from the PC, assuming that you have a network connection between the PC and the TC. The TC will be visible in Explorer/My Network Places/Windows Network/Workgroup (or similar, just keep clicking the "+" signs until you find it).

  • Can I use DisplayPort (for a monitor) and Thunderbolt at the same time?

    Hi all,
    I have a mid 2011 MacBook Air 13 inch with a single Thunderbolt port.
    I have the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter cable which I am able to use to run a Dell 24 inch monitor - this cable connects to both the DisplayPort/Thunderbolt port and also a USB port on the Air.
    I want to be able to run this Dell monitor, and also run a Thunderbolt hard drive - one with 2 Thunderbolt ports.
    Is this possible?
    Can I connect the DisplayPort part of the cable to the pass-through Thunderbolt port on the hard drive, and then connect the hard drive to the Thunderbolt port on the Air?
    Thanks, for any advice :-)
    I would like to buy the Apple Thunderbolt display (which would solve this issue), but I suspect it will may refreshed soon. So I don't intend to get one until then.
    Thanks :-)

    OK,
    I have tried this myself and it does work.
    Macbook Air - connect to Seagate GoFlex Thunderbolt (Using Thunderbolt cable)
    Seagate Goflex Thunderbolt passthrough to a Dell 24 Inch monitor (using Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter cable).
    Both the Seagate GoFlex and the Dell 24 inch monitor work :-)
    I am happy with this result, so I won't need to get a Thunderbolt moniter just yet - I will wait for Gen 2 :-)

  • Upgrading Logic and Mac at the same time?

    Hey, I need a bit of help. I am curenttly running Logic 7 on a 2.0 dual core powermac G5. When Apple release the penryn chips I will sell my G5 and get a new mac book pro. I want to upgrade to Logic 8 (the UK upgrade price is about £130). However would I need to install logic 7 on the new mac to be able to use the upgrade? Sorry if this sounds stupid! I don't really wanna be installing old software on my new mac. Could someone explain how this would work. I would prefer to keep everything new and simple, for some reason I have an image of installing 7 and then upgrading to 8 is gonna eat all my memory and hardrive space and muck up the new machine?! Kinda wanted to start afresh with new computer, new software etc. There is nothing I need to bring over from my copy of Logic, no tracks or plug-in's or anything. Also another factor is I think I have 7 or 7.1, not sure that will even run on the new intels will it? If I remember I think 7.2 was the intel upgrade. If I had the money I would just buy it from scratch but I don't have the money and spent about £600 on it originally so would prefer to keep costs down!
    Cheers

    No, just install Logic 8 and have your XSkey handy.
    Logic 7 installation is not required (or even advisable.)

  • Delete un email both on ipad and iMac at the same time

    i have an ipad and an imac. I receive the mails from the same box mail on both computers. I would like, when i delete an email on the imac, that this email be also delete on the ipad. thanks for your help!

    Yes - and if you have the relevant version of iOS on your devices (4.3.3 or later) you can set them up so that they automatically download new purchases (music, apps and/or ibooks) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4539

  • Please Help: Brand new to Logic and Mac at the same time

    Dear Board,
    I joined the Mac family yesterday and have done pretty well with getting Logic and Cubase 4 installed on the Mac. (It's like trying to learn Spanish when you're from Alabama)
    However, when I assign an instrument track to ESX sampler, no libraries or presets come up. I can hear one sound, but when I pull down the menu to load another sound, there are no other sounds to be found. Do I have them stored in the wrong place or did they not automatically load when I installed Logic?
    Specifically, I am looking for a decent acoustic piano sound, but can't make it work.
    I migrated from Logic 5 on PC to this setup yesterday, so it's all new to me. Any help you can give will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    B3

    Well a fellow Las Vegan, that is something I
    havent seen since I have been on this forum.
    Anyway welcome and good choice to go with
    Logic Pro 7. This app is a constant challenge.
    First I have to ask an obvious question, did you
    install the contents disc? That is the one with all
    the samples on it. Since you have been using a
    different version, I assume you know how the
    EXS works so that should not be the issue.
    If you click on the black area no menus come up?
    Or do empty menus come up? We will get it going,
    this sounds like misplaced files. Phil
