2 ipods, one house -problems? Are there any problems or difficulties we should anticipate since we use the same computer?

Well, there won't be problems, you will just have to sync your ipods manually. That will allow you to have all of your songs on itunes, but only pick and choose which ones go onto the ipod. This is if you have itunes 7.... when you plug your ipod in that little ipod page will pop up. click the box that says "manually manage ipod". With that you will have to click and drag songs you want on your ipod.... yes yes its annoying, but it works. For any other version of itunes, go to "edit" then "preferences". You should see a tab that says "ipod". Click that then there should be something that says "manually manage ipod". Ive got itunes 7... but i think that should be where it is for any other version. What might make it easier is if you create separate playlists for you and your sister. Then you could just drag the whole playlist onto your ipod. Hope this helped!

My daughter uses her IPod 5 with no problem. This panda gets a lot of use in our house. Hope this helps.

Yes. We use 2 iPhones, an iPad, and Windows computers. There is an app for this.

I can confirm that 1 base station works with 2 accounts (1 for me and 1 for my wife). Its a little arbitrary as it will sometimes just stop syncing, and I have to move it to another USB port or something. but it definately will work with 1 base station. The "wifi" on this device is from the device to its little base station, and they are "paired" like you pair a mouse / keyboard with your computer.You probably already know this because of the date of this post, but hopefully this helps someone else.

I have not seen nor heard of your situation before, however, making sure you have the right size does matter. Also be aware that there is a CHANCE that video playback will NOT be an option. I don't know what all you know, but I got a good amount of reliable information from IFIXIT, here's the link: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPod+5th+Generation+%28Video%29+Hard+Drive+Replacement/607

Actually if you look at that same specs page you'll see it mentions a dock adapter coming in the box so it shouldn't be a problem either way. For me the ipod touch is everything that I was looking for. Sure it could have been given a power hungry disk drive with more capacity, but flash is the better option hands down. Lower energy consumption with that nice slim form factor and better battery life for the size (look at specs on the classic 160 and you'll see the difference). I don't know why you would need 16gb of music and videos on there at any one time anyways, manual sync people...use it

The device shouldn't be a problem. Your operating system/environment could be.

I don't know about an Ipod/Iphone as I have nether but I have a flash drive in both and I can switch between each and listen to their content.

Here's another viewpoint for your consideration. You might want a nice big classic with tons of storage for *all* your music and other files (I have a 60 GB with tons o' songs, podcasts, and photos). I am currently considering a cute little shuffle or nano to hold a small subset of my total collection, for taking out on walks or whatnot when I want some of my music accessible and don't want to lug around my heavy 60 GB 'pod. So there's a possible reason why someone might want 2 iPods. :-)

All computers (and that's really what an iPod is) will freeze occasionally. There are two recent posts about freezing (which, I suspect prompted your question)which, aside from sounding like they were written by the same person, were written by people without much knowledge of the device. Like your desktop computer, generally, an iPod is easily reset on the fairly rare occasions when it does freeze. I've had almost every generation of iPod. If they freeze more than once every couple of months, I'd be surprised.

One at a time. I wasn't interested in that, all my old CDs are now on my I touch and I wanted to plug my itouch into the iPod Dock.

Ok great thanks for your comments; was getting scared, thought that this version was coming out with problems. BTW, what do you think about the Zune or the Creative Zen? do they match with iPod?Thanks once again

Hi. On a regular basis, I have 3 smartphones, 3 i-pod touch's, 2 ROKU sticks, 1 chromecast, and 3 laptops hooked up and have no problems. It has more to do with your internet speed (I have 30 Mbps). I would recommend this.

My wife's mac isn't cooperating with her new Clip. Any special steps you took to get it to work? I'm a PC guy, so I'm no help figuring this stuff out. Her IT guy at work - Mac environment - suggested an iPod... of course.

Mine is over 2 years old. No issues. Use it with iTunes on an HP and old Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 and Vista.

I've unplugged it from time to time (really just to move it) and haven't had to reset it up. Since I've written the review, I have seen some AirPlay disconnects (even with setting a static IP address). I know that setting a static IP is the way to go, but again have had a couple interruptions of music.

i found that manufacturer says you can only use one system, but some user are using two system without problem. that's what i've found so far.
