When you change accounts on your ipod touch does it wipe everything off it?

My family shared an account on itunes, but my laptop recently stopped working and everything got wiped off it. So when i got it back there was no more spaces to authorise my laptop on the itunes account. I then have made a new account but i don't know if i connect my ipod to that new account all of my games and music etc. will be taken off it.
Sorry if this makes no sense, but please help me!

Why would you make a new account?  This will likely be a mistake and will casue many issues.
There is no reason to do this, that I can see.
Just deauthorize all computers on your old account and then authorize the active computers.

  • HT4623 when you restore games from your iPod touch that are backed up to the cloud, does it restore your game play history as it was at the last backup?

    grandson loaded up the iPad touch we gifted him. iTunes (he uses a PC at home) says to restore factory settings.  we understand that will wipe data from iPod touch - but we did confirm his "Minecraft" app and a half-dozen others were backed up as recently as 1 pm today.  If we restore to factory settings, then "restore" his iPod from the iCloud back up, can anyone confirm his "gameplay" will also be restored as of the last backup?  Not a gamer, never had this concern...  I know his Purchased Apps are still on iTunes, but he's panicked about losing his minecraft "score."

    Yes it you restore from iCloud backup game status will also be restore provided that the app is still avaialbe form the App store.

  • How do you get your album's songs to stay together when you put them on your ipod/iphone, when some songs have a ft. artist?

    How do you get your album's songs to stay together when you put them on your ipod/iphone, when some songs have a ft. artist?
    Even when I try to change the featured artist in my I tunes, it won't stay with my other songs, and I want to be able to listen to my album in the order of the songs that the album has it.

    The iTunes/iPod software isn't set up to let you sync songs from more than one libray, but if you manually manage the iPod you can add tracks from multiple computers without removing the existing content. Personnaly I think syncing with a library is a much better way to manage your iPod, so I'd suggest you just copy the stuff you bought at work onto a memory stick, then take it home and import it into your iTunes library there.

    How do you transfer music from your Ipod touch to the new Itunes?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  the only exception is ituens purchases.
    You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • See if you have THIS in your ipod touch?

    Im on my second ipod touch and i feel it has some problems but i wanna verify first before i go to exchange it for another one.
    1) It has a one lit/dead pixel which appears blue on black background, very tiny thou.
    2) On the upper side of wifi antena i feel it is somewhat transparent and what im seeing is something inside it, but i think it might not be transparent, it might be a slight damage to the plastic, so can you people check if your ipod touch antena is transparent from top or is it totally black.
    You think one dead pixel is good compared to others that people are getting with many dead pixels or you think if i exchange i willl get a better ipod. I dono if ipod has this as a common problem.
    Also how many times can i exchange my ipod, im already on my second ipod, what if iexchange it and get a 3rd one which is worst, can i still be able to exchange it? Please help me out with these questions

    The "damage" you are seeing on the top part of the cover is actually a sensor, all the iPod touches have these. It detects the level of light so that the auto brightness feature works.

  • When restoring your ipod touch, will it erase everything on it?

    hello everyone
    I was wondering if restoring your ipod touch will erase everything on it because my computer does not seem to be recongizing my ipod nor is itunes. And I was afraid that if I restored my ipod that everything will be gone from it. The reason I am worried about this is that I have important notes that i have typed on it and a lot of aps that I do not want to put back on (too much work).

    If you restore to original settings it will erase everything on your iPod Touch.
    Check out some of the troubleshooting documents about the iPod not being recognized in Windows before restoring. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If you must restore you can recover back to the last backup created when you last synced your iPod.

  • How do you know what generation your iPod touch is?

    I have just bought an iPod Touch - my first iPod of any type.  How do you know what generation it is? There is nothing on the packaging and the only clue in the 'About' screen appeared to be the version 4.3.3.  I am trying to purchase a universal dock adapter and need to know the generation in order to get the right one.

  • How do you delete others in your Ipod touch?

    the others bar that is showed in Itunes under my ipod when it is plugged in, took up almost HALF THE MEMORY OF MY IPOD TOUCH!!! My ipod touch is 32 GB, and the others bar took up 13.4 GB!! i don`t want it, i just want to delete it, and i cant restore by the way, it says that my network connection is messed up or something (error 3259). So how do you delete it? please help, i want to put some movies and games on it but i can`t because the others bar took up a **** lot of space!

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • HT1766 If you had already restored your ipod touch without backing up, is there any way to get your old data back?

    Somehow, all my ipod touch's music was deleted so I restored it but forgot to back up. Now around a term past but I still don't how to get my old data back. Now the music thing still doesn't work so I don't know what happened. Maybe my itunes is stuffed??

    i wanna know if my warranty covers it
    No. The warranty covers manufacturing defects and faults that develop after purchase. Your dogs' mauling is neither of those.
