not totally sure but i dont think so.

Another Q

If you put songs on your ipod, and get a new comp., if you load up itunes on that comp., and plug in your ipod, would your pod synch w/that comp, and would all of the songs you have be put onto itunes on the other comp??

Thanks in advance

No you cannot sync two ipods together--unless there is some sort of illegal software.


Yes you can use Ipod Agent to upload songs from an existing ipod to your new pc. i dont know how it would go to itunes but im sure there is some sort of way to do it. Hope that helps

I personally recommand Anapod explorer. It's $25 ($30 for the 'universal version', that is the one you'll need if you want to use it with several ipods), but hell, it's a great program. Besides, it's not like I've spend so much on my iPod that I couldn't afford a nice interface wink

check it out. It won't let you synchronize two ipods without first copying to your HD, but it will let you a lot of other things and among them copy from an iPod to a new computer.

I don't like Anapod Explorer. My two favorite programs are iPod Agent (available @ ipodsoft.com) and EphPod, both of which are free. E-mail me at (zman512) at (gmail) dot (com) for more suggestions.

please let us know what you don't like about Anapod Explorer beside the fact it's not free (which in itself, I would agree, is a perfectly understandable and sufficient reason to prefer another program). I'm just curious to know what you think are the drawbacks of this program.

l0th, exactly what you said, it's not free. EphPod has similar functionality, and it's free.
