I have my iPod touch, Outlook and my one computer synced perfectly.

Now I want to sync my ipod to my second computer so Outlook and iTunes are exactly the same.

When I hook up the ipod to the second computer (under the Summary tab "Manually manage...box checked) I have a "Sync" option. But when I click on "Info" tab and check sync Contacts, etc I get an "Apply" button instead of "Sync".

Want to make sure I don't make any changes to the iPod.

What should I do to sync to the second computer?

My daughter syncs two computers all the time. This is what we were told from the Itunes customer service:

Itunes allows several computers (I forget how many exactly) to be authenticated to be used with your Itunes account. When that prompt comes up, tell it to authenticate the second computer. Then, when you buy or download anything (free or paid) from Itunes from one computer and want to sync to the second computer, choose the option to "transfer purchases" that will pop up and it will sync the second computer WITHOUT removing anything from the Ipod.

If you have music from a CD on one computer.......just use the CD to put the music on the second computer. So long as you put the CD on BOTH computers, the Ipod will sync WITHOUT removing anything from the Ipod. Putting the CD on both computers is really not that much trouble......it's certainly less complicated than the instructions in the link posted above.

Thanks for the post. This issue has been driving me crazy.

I'll give it a shot.

Another question if you know.

I had a PalmPilot and I transferred all the data to Outlook so I could sync my calendar, contacts, notes.....

Any experience in that?

No, I'm sorry. I don't use Outlook and have never had a PalmPilot.

I've actually used Palm's and synced to Outlook in the past... Throw the question out there and I'm sure either I or someone else could answer it for you, although it may be best to start a different thread and mark this one as solved (if it is resolved) since it's a different issue.
