Ipod Question?

Question

i have a computer at my moms house and at my dads house. I also have an ipod with itunes on both computers with different songs on each. my question is how do i keep the music that is on my ipod from one computer and either keep it on my ipod while updating it with songs from the opposite computer, or how do i rip the songs from my ipod to the itunes that doesnt have those songs since they are form a different computer? can either one be done?

Answer 1

You can't take songs form your ipod into a computer, I know it sucks. It's because of copyright laws, they think thta you might take them to all your friends' houses and give them free music, lol.

But you can put music from both computers into your ipod. What you need to do is change the setting in itunes in both computers so that they don't update the ipod as soon as you connect it, and so you can update it manually and choose the songs you want in your ipod. To do that, after you connect your ipod, it should show up like a playlist, in the summary part, check "manually manage music" and that should work. But you have to add the songs every time you get new music because it won't do it automatically.

Answer 2

You can take songs from itunes without deleting the songs you already have by going to Edit, Preferences, Sharing. I've never tried this. So I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that's how you do it.

Answer 3

No, you cannot update your iPod on both computers without erasing the old memory.

Answer 4

Not with the software by itself. It is specifically designed to make that impossible. However, with certain hacks (where you can find these, unfortunately, I do not know but know merely that they exist) it is possible.
