How can I copy tracks from one computer to another using network sharing?

NOT using Migration Assistant. All of the tracks are in one of two formats: MP3 and AAC.

Here's my standard instructions for doing this via Home Sharing.
First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document. If material on the original PC was bought from the iTunes Store, I'd use the AppleID you used for the purchases to set up the Home Share on both PCs.
iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.
If there's a lot of stuff in your original PC's library, the transfer may take some time.

How can i copy apps from one computer to another?

how can i copy apps from one computer to another?

You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

How can I copy extensions from one computer to another?

I use about a dozen extensions on one computer, and would like to use the same ones with the same settings on another computer. Copying the cryptically-named folders from the ...Profiles/xxxx.default/extensions folder doesn't work - FF doesn't seem to know they are there, even after a restart.
Using FF 3.6.8 on WinXP Sp2

After you copy the extensions folder and all sub-folders, in the profile folder delete extensions.cache, extensions.rdf and extensions.ini, this will force Firefox to rebuild the list of extensions. The problem with this approach is some extensions will create files and folders elsewhere in the profile folder, and many will add preferences to the prefs.js file. I find it easier to have copies of the .xpi files for the extensions and re-install them.
Another way to do this is by using another extension, [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2109/ FEBE].

How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

Welcome to the forum.
I can think of three basic ways to accomplish what you wish to do:
Use the Project Archiver to archive your Project (and check the box to gather the media files), to an external HDD. Probably the easiest way to do it.
Copy the Project and ALL media files to an external HDD, but be prepared to relink the media files to the Project, as the drive letter (part of the Absolute Path) will have changed.
Edit loosely, and Share to an AV file, which will be Imported into a New Project on that second computer. Or, edit VERY tightly, and do the same. I like the first, as removing, replacing Transitions, etc., can be much more difficult, unless that "tight edit" is 100% done.
Good luck,
Hunt

How can I copy songs from one iPod to another?

I received a new iPod Classic (last generation) and I'm trying to transfer my songs from my old iPod Nano (also last generation).
My iTunes library is also split up between my two parent's houses and I only have half the songs on my Nano in this computer's library.
Is there a way to copy only the songs on the +iPod Nano+ (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?

*Is there a way to copy only the songs on the iPod Nano (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?*
You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, you have to copy the songs back to iTunes and update the new iPod from there. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iRepo Mac and Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows

There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

How can you copy properities from one object to another?

If you create a number of boxes and then decided to change the color of all of them (or add a stroke, shadow, etc), is there a way to copy your style from one to the others? In Photoshop you can copy layer styles, so you don't have to re-do everything for every layer you want the styles to be on. How is this done in InDesign (CS3)?
Thanks.

From the object styles panel. Click on the object, define style (new object style), click on the next object, apply that new style. Even quicker than copy/paste. Then, if you make a change to the style, all objects are updated. Just want to do one? Alter the object itself (and create a new style while you're at it ).

How can I copy settings from one account to another on same iMac?

A week ago, my Nik plugin to Aperture and Photoshop crashed the these two apps. I created a new account, and now the plugin works without crashing int he new account. i want to transfer all my settings to the new account. How can I do it?

Create a new folder on the desktop, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide ~/Library/ as the path, move some of the items inside to that folder, keeping track of what you moved, try the plugin again, and repeat as needed.
Moving the wrong item to a different user account will transfer the problem.
