Using ITunes with 2 Ipods

My son and I each have a 30GB Ipod. My son has over 200 songs in iTunes. We listen to different types of music. How do I put only my downloaded music onto my Ipod without checking and unchecking his songs? Can I Tunes be on 2 differnt machines? If it can, how do I move his over 200 songs to his I Tunes? Here is some info that might help.
My computer is running XP Pro(I Tunes installed)
Son's computer Vista(no I Tunes)

Just for future questions, this is the iPhone forum, not the iPod forum. Unless you have an iPhone that you don't mention, you'll generally get the quickest and most accurate responses if you ask in the appropriate iPod forum or, for question about iTunes itself, in the iTunes forums.

  • Using ITunes with Ipod Mini

    My wife and I both have Ipod Mini's using separate Music Libraries(like it that way) . The problem is if she's logged in and iTunes is open when I switch users and log in and try to use iTunes I get a message. It saids something along the lines of iTunes is being used by another user and unable to open. When I click ok iTunes goes away. I have to have my wife logoff to use itunes with my profile. I would think under XP you can run iTunes separately.
    Thanks for the help.

    Fast user switching
    You cannot use this with XP and iTunes. Disable it under start/control panel/user accounts/change the way users log on.

  • I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

    You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
    Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

  • After update 8.1.2 i had problem with sync my content from ITunes with IPod

    After update 8.1.2 i had problem with sync my content from ITunes with IPod. It stucks on moment when its waiting for implementing changes (step 5 of 5) Hours and hours i'm waiting but still the same. So i cant use my Ipod at all. I restarted Ipod and delete and download Itunes again. Still stuck in the same moment. Help please. Someone has some problems like that?

    I have an error message saying that "An unknown error occurred (-54)"

  • Yesterday i made some purchases in itunestore. the download went well. till the synch of itunes with ipod. some of the downloaded music did noch synchronize. the message was: the ipod does not support the file format (mp4). strange, right?

    Yesterday 20 november I have made some purchases in Ittunestore. The download went well. Till the synch of itunes with ipod. Some of the downloaded music did noch synchronize. The message was: the ipod does not support the file format (mp4). Strange, right? All the rest of downloaded music items has been synchronised without any problems. What may be the problem?

    For music files purchased via the iTunes Store, Apple has used the following file extensions -
    .m4a unprotected AAC format music files
    .m4p protected AAC format music files
    .m4b protected Audio Books
    .m4r unprotected ringtones in AAC format
    As you can see Apple have never used .mp4 for music files via the iTunes Store.
    For videos Apple use .m4v and these are in H.264 format.
    You could try changing the file extension to .m4a, first then see if it plays on your computer and then try re-synching it.

  • How can I use iTunes with my Moto Q?

    Can I get QuickTime for my phone? I've downloaded a video for my son, but can't play it in Windows media player. What options do I have to use iTunes with my phone?

    Video purchased through the iTunes store can be played on your computer, an iPod, through AppleTV. It can't however be transferred to a Motorola Q. Sorry.

  • After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

    I have iphone, but I also have an Android can I use itunes with an Android?

    Hello,
    check out FoneSync for Android. It syncs contacts, calendars, music and photos with your Android device and features an iTunes like interface. So it is easy to use and fast.
    Kind regards

  • ITunes is totally frozen with multiple paints of same screen within itself. Also incredibly slow. Are there alternative players I can use with my iPhone, or must I use iTunes with my iPhone? iTunes is effectively unusably slow.

    iTunes is totally frozen with multiple paints of same screen within itself. Also incredibly slow. Are there alternative players I can use with my iPhone, or must I use iTunes with my iPhone? iTunes is effectively unusably slow. I am using Windows 7.
    I only use it once every few weeks and each time it is more disappointing than the previous time. does it run better on a Mac than Windows? Is this app really the future of media? Really?

    I am using iTunes 11.1.3 -- The most recent version. When I select something from my albums it just freezes. I have restarted it a few times with same result.

  • How do I use iTunes with new iPod

    I have my own video iPod, and use iTunes without a problem.
    However, I bought a refurbished iPod for a relative, and am now trying to download music onto this new iPod. When I go into my iTunes with the new iPod connected to my computer, I can't get the new iPod to show up on the task bar -- so I can't download music onto it.
    Do I have to create a separate account for this new iPod, or somehow download iTunes again for this new iPod in order to get music onto it???
    Thanks.

    Using a second iPod is normally just a question of connecting it to your computer choosing how you want to update it and using your existing iTunes. You don't need a separate Windows account unless two users want to use the one computer and maintain separate libraries. You don't need two instances of iTunes for separate accounts. Have you had look at either of these troubleshooting pages?
