Can I use my computer during a My Password backup?

My first backup using My Password is going to take hours. Can I use my computer during the backup?

Yes. But expect it to be sluggish at times, especially when trying to read from or write to another disk.

  • Why can i use one computer to sync music

    It ***** to find out that with using iTunes, you can only use one computer to sync things such as music. The computer that I was previously using with syncing died on me and now that I am on a new one it says that I have to erase everything on my iPhone just to put one mixtape on it which is complete BS. So I ask you Apple, iTunes support, or whoever, why?

    If you had your itunes backed up then you would not have that problem. You could restore it using time machine, if on a mac, or other backup software, if on a pc. Also if you had itunes match then you don't need itunes at all to sync your music up anymore.

  • Can I use my computer keyboard as a MIDI keyboard in Logic Express?

    Hello,
    Is it possible to use my computer keyboard as a one-octave piano keyboard (as possible in Garageband) ?
    I'm not ready to shell out for a good keyboard just yet.

    Yes. Not only can you use your computer keyboard by pressing the caps lock key, but you also have the option of using a "step input keyboard," a graphical display of a piano keyboard on which you can input and record notes by clicking with your mouse.

  • HT3819 can I use my computer on my tv?

    can I use my computer on my tv?

    If you are referring to using airplay mirroring, then no. That would require a Mac from 2011 or later running Mountain Lion.
    However, you can use 3rd party software like Airparrot. They have a free trial so you can see if it works for your needs.
    If you just want to view your iTunes library, then yes you can.

  • Can i use apple computer to place phone call?

    can i use apple computer to place a
    phpne call?

    If you have an iPhone with iOS 8 on the same wifi network as the computer, and the computer matches the specs required for Continuity and phone calls (i.e it is running Yosemite), then yes, yes you can.
    Phone calls
    With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
    To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
    Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
    Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
    All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
    Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support

    But you can only share the same iTunes library unless you each set up a separate user login account.

  • HT1414 Do I have to use the original computer to update iPad? Or can I use any computer?

    Do I have to use the original computer I started with to update my iPad? Or can I use any computer/laptop?

    Thanks. I asked the question because if you have iOS 5 or later you can update directly from the iPad.
    Now, to answer your question specifically, yes you can, but it may have implications. See this link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972 and the sub heading, 'If you are tempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you do not normally sync'.

  • Can I use my computer as jukebox with external speakers?

    Can I use my computer as a jukebox with external speakers, and if so, how?

    This article should help.

    You won't get as good performance thought, it's recommended that you use one device for ins and outs. Get an adapter for your speakers so that the jack will fit into the headphone output of your guitarpod. But in the meantime aggregate will work.

  • I have an iMac that has no connectivity with the mouse.  I have replaced the batteries in the mouse.  As a result, we can not use the computer as the mouse won't move

    I have an iMac which the mouse has lost connectivity.  Batteries on mouse have been replaced and green light on mouse is on.
    I can now use the computer as it does not respond to mouse or it appears to the keyboard.  Just not sure if it is a problem with the computer its self?
    Thanks

    I would highly recommend you run a test by trying another mouse with the iMac and see if that fixes it.  That would tell you the problem is Not with the iMac itself.
    Hope this helps

  • Can i use iCloud keychain with my own passwords and not with what is assigned and stored?

    Can i use iCloud keychain with my own passwords and not with what is assigned and stored?

    tammersalem wrote:) <-HDMI-> (HDTV)
    My main concerns are:
    -If I use iTunes on my main computer, will it then be available to Apple TV?
    -If I use Apple TV to download will it be available to my Main computer?
    -Can the Apple TV use a media server for storage over LAN (using NTFS Samab or otherwise)?
    Basically iTunes feeds AppleTv with media either syncing (copying to it) or streaming live.
    Media must be compatible with AppleTV.
    AppleTV requires a proper iTunes instance running - it cannot access a NAS directly.
    If you store media in a folder on a NAS and it's part of the computer iTunes library (just stored on the NAS vs internal/external drive), then when running iTunes makes this content available to AppleTV.
    Data will travel:
    NAS > network > iTunes > network to AppleTV
    As the path is potentially slower than internal/external attached drive > iTunes > network > AppleTV, it may or may not work robustly for streaming.
    If AppleTv is set to sync (it can also stream in this mode), when you purchase direct on AppleTV, the media should sync back to where the itunes library is stored (via iTunes) to keep things in sync and to allow you to backup the media.
    You cannot drag/drop media to/from AppleTv across the network, nor can it directly access storage itself - iTunes is an essential cog in the wheel.
    The majority of commercial 'in-built iTunes media servers' will not work directly with AppleTV as it has to be 'paired' with iTunes by entering a numerical code in iTunes and does not simply see 'shared libraries'.
