    One has nothing to do with the other.  You can sync as many idevices as you like

     

    Please explain your situation.

    I had a IPOD that I was synching to my apple account...I then added the mini to the account and my itunes no longer recognizes my IPOD...when I attach it it does not even pop up as a device option...it only will sych with the Mini....

     

    I have podcasts that I synch with the ipod for running...I was hoping to avoid having to have a second itunes account...there was one recommendation to do a new play list however if it does not recognize the ipod it cannot exchange...

    As Roaminggnome said, adding the Mini is not related to the iPod nano problem.

    Try:

    Does it charge?

    - Try another cable.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
