How can I keep my apps (several unauthorized) on my ipod and computer synced?

Most of my apps were bought by an account I do not have access to anymore. I have a new Macbook. My old PC where I used to sync my iPod was authorized by this account. All these apps are in that PC and on my iPod. Obviously I cannot authorize my Macbook because as I have said, I cannot access the account anymore. It's a long story but basically, I can't.
Now, I have transferred all apps that I purchased by an account of mine (different one) that has athorized my new Macbook. Transferred from my old PC to new Macbook (actually just the apps I decided I still wanted). By the way, I haven't synced the apps yet on my new Macbook. So this is how it all looks like: The apps that I need (purchased by my active account and the other one) are all on my iPod; All the apps on my new Macbook (purchased by active account) are on my iPod; The "unauthorized" apps are all on my iPod and my old PC.
When I try to sync the Macbook and my iPod, I cannot because it tells me I will lose these hundreds of apps (I'm not sure if it's because tey are unauthorized and/or the ones on my Macbook are supposed to replace the ones in my iPod). My goal here is to just allow both devices to sync smoothly everytime without losing any data. It can be the unauthorized apps stay in the iPod but it can still sync with the Macbook. Although if you have a way the unauthorized apps to be transfrred to my Macbook then all the better.
So how can I attain that?

So what I've done was delete all existing apps in my new Macbook and transferred all apps from my old PC to the new one. It was successful...until I try to sync it. This message comes up:
This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iPod “Lauren”. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?
If you do not authorize this computer, 137 apps, including “...™”, and their data will be deleted from this iPod.
So I have all apps on my iPod and my Macbook. Only problem is the Macbook cannot be authorized so whenever I try to sync them, it "threatens" to delete all "unauthorized" apps from my iPod.
Oh, and if I continue, I'm guessing those apps and their would really be gone from my iPod, but will they stay on my Macbook and sync the next time I try to sync them? Though if that works I still bet I will lose all data from my apps...

=> is this a different iCloud account for each device? I thought iCloud account ID had to match some iTunes account ID, for which we only have one i Tunes account?
You need to set up a separate iCloud account for each person that does not want to share their iCloud data. If you share an iCloud account with someone, any data you both sync with the shared account is merged, and you end up with each other's data on your device(s). If, for example, you owned two devices and someone else in the family also owned two devices, you would both want your own iCloud accounts, and you would each set up your personal iCloud account on the two devices you own. In other words, you want a separate iCloud account for each person to be used on the devices they own. Each iCloud account has to have a separate Apple ID. The ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for iTunes. Many families perfer to share the same iTunes account/ID, but maintain separate iCloud accounts with different IDs to keep there data separated.

=> what ID, iTunes? So I can have a separate iCloud account "only" ID which I also assume must be some [valid] email address? The children currently do not have email accounts anywhere.
Yes, I was referring to the iTunes ID not needing to be the same as the ID used for iCloud. In order to set up an Apple ID your children will need to have a valid email address that can be verified by Apple. Apple requires this so they have a way of contacting the owner if there is a problem with the account, such as when you may need to reset the password on the account. When you set up the ID, Apple will send a verification email to this email account and you will need to click on the verificating link in the email to complete the process. If they don't currently have an email account you can just set one up with gmail or another free email hosting service. They don't have to use the account but you will need it to set up the ID.

How can I keep synchronized my macbook pro at the office and a traveling macbook air?

How can I keep synchronized my macbook pro at the office and a traveling macbook air?

Have you tried doing the sync via Time Machine?
I thought it would be possible to backup the travelling machine and restore the machine at the office from the new backup.
I read a warning from Apple that it is not advisable.
I would be very interested in your opinion.

How can I keep certain apps from starting at login?

I have Break Reminder installed. It isn't compatible with certain accessibility tools. It isn't something that I want to start every time I use the computer. But it does start every time I use the computer. I don't tell the computer to restart apps at start up. I don't list the apps in the Login Items list. It just starts itself. How can I keep it from starting itself?

go to system preferences / Users Groups / Login items
(make sure your lock at bottom left side of window is unlocked) if it isn't you will be asked to insert your user password if you don't have one just hit enter (unlock)
from there you get to choose your startup applications simply add/remove with +/- under the windows
once you made changes don't forget to lock the lock to prevent changes and you should be set
good luck

How can I keep my apps to stay on my phone everytime I have to backup instead of having to restore them everytime theres an update? Also, would someone PLEASE explain iCloud to me! I have yet to have it work out!!

I purchased the 4S for my husband and I. After having the phone sit in the box for 2 weeks, I finally decided to have it activated. Once it was activated the person I spoke with on the phone de-activated my 3GS without even telling me to back up! So here I am with out having anything backed up to itunes or icloud and this person, has no clue about what shes telling me to do! 3 hours and 2 different people later, I find that I have to sync my 3GS to itunes to back it up there and re-store it to my 4S because no one I spoke with on the phone had no clue as to why the progress bar when backing up on iCloud through my phone didnt move after like 10 mins.
Can someone please help me understand what is being done wrong?
Let me also add in that everytime there is an update, I have to manually put all 160 apps from my itunes on my laptop back to my iphone!! This so frustrating!
Yes, I have gone to the Apple store and have had a one on one course with someone at the "genius bar" and they all say the same, "once we back it up to your icloud, you will never have to sync your phone with itunes again, you will be able to do this wirelessly"
I have yet to have that happen
Please help!

How can I keep the ResultSet ???? (Session and DBMS)

Hello :)
My problem is :
When I fetch the ResultSet from the database it's much to big to print all out to the user at once!
I need to print about 10 elements out as HTML first. Then if the user wants to he can ask for 10 more and so on! Well, how can I hold on to the ResultSet I fetched in the beginning for later requests from the user??
Can I save the ResultSet object in an httpSession or is there an other way to do it!
Please help me with an example if possible!
Thank you in advance : )

Yes, it is quite possible to keep the ResultSet in a session, but when you do that, you have to keep the Connection open to the database, with which the ResultSet has been obtained, so, it is not advisable to do that, because, if the Connection is kept open, then if the number of users of your site increase, then it is going to be a problem because, there is a limit on the maximum number of Connections open at a single time, there by causing your server down for an user who comes for the Connection after the maximum number of Connections is achieved.
so, to get around this problem, you can do some thing like this.
I hope you have a column in your table which gives you the serial number,
if so,
you can query some thing like this, if you want to display the first 10 results
select * from my_table where slno>0 and slno<=10;
now when the user clicks on the next 10 link
then
do the query as
select * from my_table where slno>10 and slno<=20;
and so on and so forth.

TS1424 i have downloaded audiobook but is not showing up on my ipod to access. how can I get it to show up on the ipod and access it?

I downloaded an audio book and it shows in my library but is not on my ipod to access. What do I do?

If you downloaded it directly on your iPod then it should be in the Music app (or iPod app if it's an iPod on iOS 4 or below) - when there are audiobooks on the device you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app. If you downloaded it on your computer then you will need to sync it to you iPod via the Books tab, in a similar way to how you use the Music tab to sync music (audiobooks are currently a one-time only download so you won't be able to re-download it on your iPod).

How can I connect a PC with iTunes to an ipod and make iTunes play podcasts directly from the ipod without synching with iTunes on the PC ?

I predominently use my ipod to listen to my favourite podcasts. I download podcasts onto my Home PC using iTunes and then synch the podcasts onto my ipod again using iTunes. This all works fine.
Occassionally I want to connect my ipod to my Work PC via iTunes and listen to the podcasts by playing them through my Work PC external speakers. I DO NOT want iTunes to synch with my ipod, I just want to access the podcasts on the ipod and play them directly using the iTunes on my Work PC. I used to be able to do this, but have recently had a new replacement PC provided and now when I attach my ipod to the new PC iTunes wants to synchronize, and I can't see the podcasts which I know are on the ipod.
I'm sure that this is an easy one for you experts out there. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Arnold

Just to be clear - I have a new Work PC. My Home PC and ipod synching is all still working fine - it's just connecting the ipod to my new Work PC - and not being able to see and play the podcasts from the ipod - which is the problem that I am trying to overcome. Thx.

How can I keep my old things from own apple account and move it to a new one?

I got a new iTunes account today and all of my old things (videos, pictures, music, apps, etc.) are all on the old account, which is my dad's. I want to have all of my stuff on my iPhone, but also have a new Apple Account.

You will not be able to transfer the items purchased or the other Apple ID. You will need to reinstall the data under your Apple ID and pay for the apps.

How can i stop my apps from transferring off my ipod when the software updates?

whenever i install new software updates, my ipod touch takes everything off and transfers it to my computer. when it puts everything back, anything ive paid for i lose. is there is way to stop the apps from transferring so i dont lose everything ive already paid for, or losing my place in a game i play?

In iTunes use the File menu "Transfer purchases from..." item. Ordinarily you will get a warning to do this before an update. Presumably your computer is authorized to use your account and it is the computer to which you normally sync your iPod?

My brother and sister are on my account is there a way to keep the apps the download off my ipod after i sync?, My brother and sister are on my account is there a way to keep the apps the download off my ipod after i sync?

Even though we are on seperate computers, when i sync my ipod to my computer the apps my brother downs loads is downloaded to mine. Is there a way to stop that?

Hi seakat101,
It sounds like one of two things is happening:
1. You have something checked in the "Apps" page when you connect your iPod to iTunes, such as "Automatically sync new apps". Change the settings from there to fix the problem.
2. You have Automatic Downloads enabled on your iPod. Go to Settings > Store and tap the "Apps" switch to OFF to fix the problem.
Hope this helps,
O.C.
