Is it true that iPod's will only sinc to one computer? HELP? Can you disable it by turning on the hold switch?

I highly recommend using Apple's support site (http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/) rather than asking Amazon users. Most don't actually know what they're talking about. You can easily back up, transfer, switch computers, etc (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329) Also, you can switch to manually sync your iPod which will allow you to sync with many computers. The purpose of auto-syncing is to ensure that the changes you make on your computer are mirrored on your iPod. However, there are many other easy ways to manage your iPod such as dragging-and-dropping playlists straight to the iPod. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351)

I've heard it is, but I just did it. I submitted an email to the apple support team and they sent me links addressing how to legally move your music library from one computer to another. Bottom line... It can be done. Don't let the rumors scare you out of purchasing an I-Pod.

I'm using iTunes. There is a multi option when I click the AirPlay icon. I select my three AirPlay devices and the music is in synch with all of them.On iPad or iPhone I can only select 1 device.

This has happened to me. I fixed my problem by resetting my iPod. Please download the manual from Apple's website. Unfortunately Amazon won't let me post the direct link. Go to Chapter 6 (page 55) of the current manual to troubleshoot. If you use Windows version of iPod and you manually update your playlists, your problem may have been triggered by improper disconnection. If that's the case, make sure you always eject your iPod first by using Window's System Tray (much like disconnecting flash drives). Good luck!

I keep all my music on an external drive.....and I have 2 different iPods (a classic for ALL my music and videos, and a nano for certain playlists for workouts and travel)......by setting the playlists to manually sync (as suggested above) for whatever iPod is designated, you can control what goes on what, and allow each one to have a different set of music/videos on them.

I have been able to do this from iTunes on my PC but not from my iPad or apple TV, I have only been able to select one speaker from these devices, but from the pc I have had the iW2 the Apple TV and a pioneer airplay enable device all running at once

I tried three docks and each one of them had a static noise that was very annoying in certain songs. Now, I don't understand when you say that ipod, connected to the aux, doesn't make any static noise? My sansa player or a laptop doesn't produce any static noise in my earphones or other speakers but it does on this dock. So, it must be the AUX port on this dock that is not functioning properly.

Only one at a time, but you should be able to use it with multiple bluetooth devices. I haven't tried, as I only have an iPod, but according to the directions you could connect (one at a time) to multiple bluetooth devices. I'm sure you would need to be sure that others were turned off, so they wouldn't be trying to connect simultaneously.

you need to manually switch. you'll save yourself a lot of trouble if you buy directly from Apple or from a more reputable seller!

I am on my second one now, and it is still that way! I'm going to try to return it AGAIN and maybe get a different ipod. I wish I knew what else to do!

Nothing if it comes with bluetooth connector as mine did... it can go behind screen off at end of usb cable.. I have had mix results on iPod connection so far, though it was made to support them, it works must time.. I was told by Jvc ( who was super at helping) I needed update, when I add that it should work better... some of then come with the usb plug in box, so make sure yours does and it should be okay with updated software bear if luck!

My experience was that I did just that....plugged in my ipod cord and played the music, no extra app required. However, two things happened: a) the ipod's battery was depleted (for some reason, I expected one of the two-pronged cords would provide a charge) and b) the system's preset buttons became unresponsive to the touch. I unplugged the ipod and reset the preset buttons and I've had no problems at all since then (several months ago) - however, I haven't bothered to use the ipod since then. It may have had nothing at all to do with b).....

Not an expert but in general Apple's iOS only lets one bluetooth device work at a time. I'm not sure there is a fix for it.

I have 2receivers set up and I can play iTunes from a laptop to one or to both at the same time this works well if that is what you are trying to do.

i typically sync via the cloud. I just plugged it in through the port and itunes recognizes that it's plugged in - I don't know if you are planning to plug both devices at the same time to sync at the same time. The computer would recognize both but Itunes wouldn't be able to sync both at the same time.

I have linked it with 2 different devices (ipod and ipad) without any problem. So I do not see problem to do that you want to.
