So Frustrated! Please Help the Tech Challenged.

I think the first thing you need to do is go onto iTunes and update your account information. That should take care of the e-mail issue. I don't think you can really start a new account and sync your old songs to the new account. You just need to update your old account with your new e-mail information.

Then, sync your old iPod to your computer one last time. Then, hook the new iPod up to your computer. It will take forever to sync the first time.

Worse comes to worst, I always google my exact problem. There's always a user forum somewhere that can walk you through what you need to do, or call Apple tech support. They're really good and helpful. :)

Got a teenager?

My daughter is walking me through syincing my IPhone on my new computer and setting it up. I know the frustration.

Tech support is also a good friend, just expect to be on the phone a long time.

I'm scared that I have wiped my phone clean, we'll see.

Good luck.

UPDATED: I did it! Yeah!

You can use iCloud to sync everything. That's what we're doing right now with iTunes, my husband's iPad2, son's iPod Touch and my iPhone. All you need to do is sign into the app store with your email and apple ID...on each device.

Tech support is your friend!

Isn't there a tech support phone number for itune or ipod?

Just know that you can not merge 2 different accounts, so change the email on your first account and don't sign in on your "new" account. I makes life much more difficult!
