    Is it possible to sync 2 different apple devices (iPhone and ipod nano) with itunes on the one computer and to have different music and photo libraries on each?
    I have my iphone synced with this computer, the other computer has an itouch synced with it and there is another computer in the house but I'm not sure if it will be capable of supporting itunes, but we all have different music interests.

    Any help appreciated. :D

    sure there is a way to do this..
    just hold shift key while you open up itunes until a window will popup.. then you just make a new library..
    but keep in mind to always hold shift when you open up itunes with each of the devices just to get the right library..

    Use one library on one computer, just have different playlists, photos etc for each device. All you need to do is plug in the device, and itunes recognises it as an iPhone, iPod Touch or whatever. I have 4 different devices doing this at the moment. Best thing is, all the music, apps, photos, videos etc are all in the one place.

    Thanks guys. Tried this and I think I f'd it up a bit. Created a new library for it but when I went to find my own library I ended up opening up the wrong one now I have my library from a few months ago and can't find my current one to go back to. :( Done a system restore and nothing changed. Any suggestions? Trust me to f*ck it up! :rolleyes:
