Is there a way to open automatically open different iTunes libraries in different networks?

I know how to select which iTunes library to open upon launch -- manually. But I'd like iTunes to automatically open a different library, depending on where I am:
1) open the library on my external drive when I'm on my home network, but
2) open the library on my Macbook Pro when I'm on any other network.
Can you think of a way to automate this?

If you setup the PDF with appropriate chapter labels for the pages - yes.

  • Is there any way to sync my two macs iTunes libraries?

    I have two Macs a Macbook Pro and an Imac.  I'd like to sync the iTunes libraries.  Is this possible?

    A not-infrequent question and as yet the answer is pretty much no, there isn't an easy way to do it.  One way is to keep your library on an external drive and move it between computers so you are really using just one library.  Apple has, of course, come up with you being able to download media to various locations as long as you buy all your music from Apple, or you subscribe to Match.  Still, this is just downloading media. It isn't synchronizing the library since that involves more, such as ratings, playlists, playcount, etc.
    There's: iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing.  Still, that just facilitates media transfer, it doesn't update the complete library which is more than just media.
    PowerTunes - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/powertunes/ (commercial software)  - doesn't really look like it does what you want.  I have a link for sync-o-tunes which does, but that won't work on modern Macs.

  • Is there any way to sync ur iphone to itunes on a different computer

    I am deploying to afghanistan and i bought a new laptop to take with me the problem is my iphone is synced to my computer at hoe is there any way to download itunes to my laptop and sync my phone to it without losing all my songs and everything else

    Since all iTunes content on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on the computer that has been used for syncing your iPhone, transfer your iTunes library from that computer to your new computer along with all other important data from the existing computer that you will need or want to access on your new computer such as any documents, photos, etc. Transfer your iTunes library per the instructions included with this link.

  • Is there any way to make Mail open next message?

    Is there any way to make Mail open the next message on the inbox automatically after deleting, forwarding o saving a message?
    I mean, is there any way to, after reading a message, going to the next or previous message without double clicking the main inbox window?
    I used (on windows) to read mail on outlook, or even on entourage for mac, and after I read a message, even if I deleted it, forward it, replied it, or even saving it on a folder, automatically the program (outlook, entourage, hotmail, etc) opened the next message on the inbox, but I am not able to find any way to make Mail do that.
    Is there a way to it? Or should I provide suggestions to Apple?
    By the way, no meant to prefer microsoft for this, I just think this is a cool feature for reading several messages one after another without going back to the main inbox page and double clicking the message to read...
    Thanks for any help

    Down-arrow, Return. Return opens the selected message. I read through hundreds of messages without ever touching the mouse. Once you get used to the keystrokes, Mail is extremely efficient.

  • Is there a way to shorten the "Open With" list?

    Hi -
    This may be a question for Apple because it is a uniquely Apple Finder problem.
    Or maybe some clever 3rd party Apple developer will take this on - because this is an Apple Finder problem (hint).
    Is there a way to shorten the "Open With" list that appears when I right-click on a file?
    Heres why this is important to me.
    1- I'm seeing multiple versions of the same app on the list, like Photoshop CS5, Photoshop CS5.1, Photoshop CS 5.5.  I can't think of any reason why I would ever want to use an older version of Photoshop.  And it's not only Photoshop or even Adobe products.
    2- I see incorrect apps being suggested.  If I right click on an Illustrator file I see that TextEdit is one of the choices.  I get Photoshop as an option to open HTML files.  I see BBEdit as an option to open JPEG files.  These are bizarre associations.  Why are they even on the list?
    3- With so many irrelevant choices the possibility of selecting the wrong application increases and doing so is a waste of time and resources.  Once I accidentally selected a text editor to open a JPEG.  After about 3 minutes of RAM-sucking processing I got a huge file of jibberish text characters that was thousands of lines long.  Waste of time!
    I KNOW I'm not the only one with this question. 
    Is there anyone out there with an answer???
    Thanks,
    JL

    baltwo - thank you for the expert advice. 
    I did as you instructed and the situation is better but I don't believe it's solved. 
    I still get 3 versions of Photoshop when I right click on a PSD.  I also get Dashcode and Textwrangler - which are the oddest associations.  All together I get 25 apps responding to "Open With" on a PSD.  And this is an improvement.
    Do you think I would get even better results if I ran the same command again?
    Thanks again.

  • In Firefox 10, is there a way to add two "Open a new tab" buttons like in Firefox 3.6?

    In Firefox 10, is there a way to add two "Open a new tab" buttons like in Firefox 3.6?

    This UI change is really stupid and useless. People got used to some specified menu items order. Changing this order could only annoy and anger.
    Also the reload button has been relocated. This is another example of stupid Firefox 4 UI change. The good news is that it could easily be relocated to its original place.
    It looks like the Firefox developers are suffering from idleness and boredom.
    CHANGE IT BACK ASAP!!!

  • Is there a way to make InCopy open all documents in normal screen mode, always?

    Is there a way to make InCopy open all documents in normal screen mode, always?
    Now it opens in the screen mode the InDesign page is in when checked in. We don't want that.
    Thanks,
    Frederik

    No, there's no way to get rid of it in InCopy.  InCopy opens layouts in the mode the InDesign user saved them, including Normal vs. Preview, Frame edges showing or not, Hidden characters showing or not, and so on.
    You could try asking the designers to switch to Normal view before saving the INDD file.  Or you could assign a keyboard shortcut to the Normal view in InCopy and tell everyone to use that. We're on Macs so we use Control-N for Normal and Control-Shift-N for Preview.

  • When I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens automatically instead of iTunes

    When I connect my Iphone to my MBPro running Snow Leopard, Iphoto opens automatically instead of Itunes. When I manually open Itunes, my Iphone appears in the sidebar as normal, nut how can I change the settings so that Itunes is the default open program for syncing?
    thanks
    Doug

    If you don't want iphoto to launch, open the image capture app, & under preferences select what you want to happen when a camera is connected. iPhoto will only launch if you have pics in your camera roll.
    When your phone is connected, on the summary page there will be an option to check to open iTunes automatically when iPhone connects.

  • I bought and downloaded some music off of the internet on my laptop that uses Windows 8. How can I get my music to open automatically in my itunes instead of opening in the music app?

    I bought and downloaded some music off of the internet on my laptop that uses Windows 8. How can I get my music to open automatically in my itunes instead of opening in the music app (the orange sqaure with headphones)? Currently I have had to often downloads and sift through all my files to find the ones I want to open into itunes, and it's irritating.

    Media is only where the user puts it.
    Installing iTunes does not and has never caused media to magically appear on the computer.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer (or backup of the old computer) to the new computer.

    Thanks. I know how to select multiple tracks in the mixer, did that and put on group clutch,
    Hi
    Wrong..
    To assign tracks to a group, click in the dark gray box just above the automation (Read/Write/Off etc) on a channel strip, and select the group number you wish to use. The first tim eyou assign a group, the Group Setting swindow will appear automatically, thereafter you need to click on the group area and choose 'Open Group Settings'.
    Make sure that you have turned off Group Clutch (this disables all Groups)
    Maybe this will help

  • Is there a way to have two different iTunes for two different iPhones on one Windows User account?

    Using Windows 7, iphone 4.
    I've read as many threads on these forums and as many kb's as I could find, but I sttill can't figure it out. I have 2 iPhones. Let's call them, "wife" and "hubby". I want to have two separate iTunes, one for each of the phones. Hubby is the Windoows User. I don't want to set up a different Windows User for wife.
    Hubby was the original iPhone. When I plug it in, iTunes recognized it has Hubby's iPhone. Then I unplug Hubby and close iTunes. I plug in Wife but iTunes stll comes up with Hubby under Devices and syncs Hubby's iTunes to Wife's iphone.
    I've tried using the shift key when I open iTunes to set up two separate .itl files to no avail.
    Is there a way to have two different iTunes for two different iPhones on one Windows User account?
    Thanks!

    What happens if you rename the iPhone "Wife" when it shows up as "Hubby", then choose a different set of apps/playlists to sync with? iTunes is supposed to be able to manage multiple devices, each with their own selection of content. Perhaps you "restored" "Wife" with a backup from "Hubby" when you first set things up which is now causing confusion.
    To create a new library press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to start iTunes and keep holding shift until asked to choose or create a library. You need to use the same technique to switch back.

  • I have Office for Mac 2011 on my Mac desktop.  Is there a way to transfer it to my new MBA via my network?

    I have Office for Mac 2011 on my Mac desktop.  Is there a way to transfer it to my new MBA via my network?  If not is there any way to load Office into my MBA short of buying an external DVD player?

    I recently purchased a MacBook Air and set up the machine using Setup Assistant cloning it from my iMac via wifi. Whilst it took a very long time, eventually it worked.
    The set up option included all programmes. When I opened up MS Word on the Air, I was asked to enter my original product key. Once I had done this all other MS Office programmes worked fine.
    I believe the license allows you to install and run on a desktop and a laptop but not be using them at the same time.
    Hope this helps
