Can two iPods/iPhones be synced to the same computer?

Could you please tell me?

Yes they can! Just connect them to your computer and sync them when iTunes asks you if you want to sync them.

They can be connected to iTunes if that's what you mean. I strongly suggest that you do not use "sync" though, which allows iTunes on that computer to control more of your device than you should want to.

I never sync any of my Apple devices to put music on it. Instead my iTunes is set for manual management of music and video. I almost never have problems putting music on my iPod and obviously much fewer than those complained of in questions like yours which are posted here in the thousands - including loss of music to put songs on my iPod.

Manual management is just clearly superior in every way and it works on iPods, iPhones and iPads both new and old. I've tried it on first generation nanos, iPod 4, iPad 3 and iPhone 5

You enable manual management by bringing up sidebar in iTunes (ctrl S if you don't have it up already) and clicking on the iPod tab. The main window should show you the main summary for your iPod. The box for the manual management option is at the bottom of the page (it's probably already checked).

That's basically it. Now you can just drag the songs from whatever folder they're in in WIndows and drop onto the iPod tab on iTunes sidebar.

Every time you update iTunes, you need to reboot your computer.

Very much so.

Been doing that for years.

  • Why do people with iphones also have ipods? A lot of people I know have iphones. But they also have ipod touches. Why? If you have an iphone (which is the exact same thing as an ipod touch plus calling capability) where is the need for an ipod touch? Just doesn't make sense to me.
  • Why do people put passcodes on their iPods or iPhones? My girlfriend has an iPod touch and my friends daughter has an iPhone and they put passcodes on them. I have an iPhone and I don't need one on mine. My friends daughter has a little brother and I understand that's why she has it on hers but my girlfriend doesn't have any brothers or sisters so there's so reason for her to have it on her iPod. I don't get why they put them on there. Why do they have passcodes on their iPods and iPhone?
  • Why do people jail break their iPods/iphones? So I hear all this stuff about jail breaking iPods and iPhones and stuff. How do you do it? And what is the point… I'm confused.
  • Why do girls take their iPhones and iPods into the bathroom? It always seems to be girls rather than boys who have accidents with these things falling into the toilet. This morning, my friend told me at church that she dropped her iPhone into the toilet at home while she was getting ready for church. She went to the bathroom, and it accidentally fell into the toilet just after she flushed it, so it went down along with everything else. Now her parents are going to have to call a plumber tomorrow because the toilet doesn't flush properly now.
