touch syncing problem

coldenmean

ive had a quick look an dont see it posted elsewhere....
i just got a new ipod touch and i have my music on two computers... so.. after i sync it with one... how do i add more music and album artwork etc onto it without it taking whats already on it back off..???
obviously selecting manual sync isnt going to help me.. so what else can i do?
i had no idea the touch would be this difficult....
i dont own it.... itunes does :mad:

why would you say selecting manual won't help? that's exactly what you do. Select manual, drag and drop songs you want from the first computer, dissconnect.......connect to other computer and manually drag songs in again!

oooohhhhh.. i wasnt sure.. because as the name suggests... i thought that it would still 'synchronise' my touch with what is on itunes...
so thats not the case then? im good to go for manual sync and i regain conrtol over what goes on and off it?:D

hang on drag and drop? with itunes?
cause this isnt an ipod.. its a touch... so i cant use it as a hdd.. its flash and everything has to go through itunes...
is there a way i can drag and drop as well?
it is possible that im talking ****e here and i dont know what im doing... its just the last mp3 player i had was a cheap one that i could do what i wanted with *sigh*
im finding it hard to get used to this new way of having my music...

haha yeah once you get used to it it's great.

you still have to go through iTunes though, i didn't mean drag and drop that way, sorry should have been clearer.

Plug it in and select manual. Then highlight all the songs that you want and drag them from the main library window to your iPod on the left taskbar of iTunes.
