Re: [Apple iPod] Re: iPod music grayed out in iTunes

As you discovered first hand you are right you can only use one ipod for one itunes profile. Probably it has to do a lot that they have to be as tight with music copyright infringement in order to have proper deel with media producers. Probably there could be the (unofficial) way around to reuse same media you have in HD for your other ipod but ull need to google it on the net.

Hopefully in the future apple will find out some more user friendly solution for those like urself who need to use their media in several devices at the same time

I am no expert on this but maybe it has something to do with authorize/deauthori ze computer.

OK - no help yet. I have removed iTunes from my hard drive and redownloaded and installed it again. Still the same problem. I restored my iPod back to original settings last night and resynced all my music. Still the same problem.

I still cannot manually manage my music or podcasts, everything is grayed out on my iPod when I hook it up to iTunes. I cannot right click on anything or move it, delete it or do anything to it. I can still play it on my iPod (not on iTunes with my iPod) so that is one good thing but it is getting frustrating that I cannot manually manage my music.

Anyone know what's going on?

automatically sync all music.
