ipod question?

How do you add a second ipod to itunes? My first ipod works just fine, but when I hook up a different one, itunes can't find it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any good tips.

    your ipods should have different names so that your itunes can detect them separately

    The ipod could have different version of Itunes on it, meaning you'd have to update that on a different library.

    Just a suggestion.

    When the second iPod is plugged in, can u find it in My Computer? If not, there was a hardware installation problem.

    And no, iTunes can handle more than one iPod. The other guy's wrong.

    Well i don't really know but i think you have to put it in the base thingamagigger and just plug that into itunes and it will probably go "you have a new device"
