Hi I have one itunes account and one computer - but I have an ipod and both my children do. How do I download to each of our ipods separately? Please help. Thanks

Hi and welcome to iLounge.
At a basic level, it's really as simple as connecting the iPods to the computer. iTunes will recognize each one as a distinct iPod, and each will have it's own sync settings for what you want to put on it.
You can even keep some in "manual" mode and automatically synchronize others, or you can choose to sync selected playlists to each and only include playlists with the content that each person likes.
Alternatively, if your musical tastes are dramatically different, you can set up different libraries on the same computer by using different user accounts (each account will get it's own library by default), or by holding down the SHIFT key when starting iTunes in order to create/select a new library.
