Is there a way to sync to an ipad or iphone selected files from a secondary itunes without erasing everything on the mobile device.

Is there a way to sync jujst selected files to an ipad or iphone from an itunes program that is not the one that is primarily used for that specific remote device?
I sync my ipad to my desk top but also have a laptop that has some files that I want on my ipad but don't want to erase everything to get them on.

Not really.  iOS devices were designed to sync to one iTunes account, not multiple accounts.  Simply email what you want to your Desk Top and transfre them to your iTunes library on that computer.  Or get a Dropbox account.  You can download Dropbox on your iPad and have dropbox on your Desk Top and Laptop.  You could access files, music, pictures, etc., you put in your Dropbox account from any device.  You get 2GB free storage, but you can purchase additional storage if you need it.

    If your cellular plan/carrier allows use of the iPhone as a hot spot, yes. Verizon does on some plans, at least in my area, but I can't speak for other providers.Set up on the iPhone is in the Settings App > Personal Hotspot.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • Is there a way to run a script to create an RPD file from MDS XML files

    We would be interested in using the MDS XML format for the RPD file in saving it in our Subversion source code control system, and I have seen how to do this in the User documentation.
    Our question is whether or not there is a way to use a command line tool to recreate the rpd file without having to use the Admin tool, so that we can automate the deployment of the RPD file from source code control to QA and Production environments.
    If we check in the RPD file directly, then there is a way to automate the process, but we would prefer to use the MDS XML format since this allows us to save changes in text format, not binary, but we still need to be able to automate the process.
    In the Oracle Fusion Middleware XML Schema Reference for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition document, I have found that there is a way to automate the creation of the MDS XML files from an RPD file using this command:
    biserverxmlgen -M -R repository_pathname [-P password] -D output_directory [-8] [-N] [-Q|-S]
    So my question is basically is there a way to reverse this process, to use some command line tool (or Weblogic Scripting or some other mechanism) to create the RPD file from the MDS XML files? Are there options on the biserverxmlexec command that will do what I am asking?

    Hey dmfairley,
    Thanks for the question. You can absolutely export the project as .mp3, as outlined in this resource:
    GarageBand Help: Export songs to disk
    http://help.apple.com/garageband/mac/10.0/#gbnd7cbf5ed9
    Export songs to disk
    You can export a project to your computer as a stereo audio file.
    Exported files can be reused in GarageBand to save processing resources by replacing or bypassing multiple regions, instruments, and effects. They can also be used with other music applications and devices, posted on the Internet (on a webpage, or in the iTunes Store, for example), added to an iTunes playlist, or uploaded to a mobile device such as iPhone or iPad.
    1. Choose Share > Export Song to Disk.
    2. To rename the exported file, select the name in the Save As field, then enter a new name.
    3. Choose a location to save the exported file from the Where pop-up menu.
    4. Select the format for the exported file (AAC, MP3, or AIFF).
    5. Choose the quality setting for the exported file from the Quality pop-up menu.
    6. Click Export.
    Thanks,

  • Is there a way to sync apps and pictures between iphone and ipad.

    I am going back to work in a few weeks and I am looking for a way to sync the iPad/iPhone so that I have quick  saccess to see my son and keep track of his baby app that I use. Plus I want to be able to have easy access to any photos takne with the ipad so I can see them immediatly with the iphone. (if any of that made sense)

    i have the same exact question, so I'll just stay posted except I have my songs stored on an external hard disk connected on my Mac Mini.

  • Is there a way of syncing your Music Library on iPhone 4 to different computers?

    I have synced my iphone library to a computer and I want to sync it to another computer of mine how can I do that??

    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

  • For Christmas I got a new computer after my other computer broke so I am wondering is there a way to sync my iPod touch that I already had with my new computer without deleting all my app data because I have over 200 hundred dollors of games

    I got a new computer for Christmas it is a gateway and I have downloaded iTunes on it I need  to know if there is a way that I can sync my iPod touch with my new computer without deleting all of my app data I don't have my old computer It crashed so u can't even turn it on

    You should be able to:
    Use Edit > Preferences > Devices > Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
    Connect the device to iTunes.
    Backup the device to the new computer.
    Transfer your iTunes purchases into a newly authorized library.
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer.
    Restore the device from the backup.
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps. When you get it all fixed, make a backup!
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.

  • Is there any way to sync individual songs to your iPhone?

    I have iTunes 11.1.2 and a 4s iPhone. I cant seem to sync individual songs. You would figure Apple would make improvements with new iTunes instead of horribly regress backwards. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Please explain.
    You can simply add a song to a playlist you sync.
    Not sure what you are looking for.

  • Is there ANY way to sync app/game data between iPhone and iPad2?

    I just got a new iPad and sync'd all my apps onto it however I didn't realize it wouldnt sync the game data (levels etc). I don't want to start from scratch on my games if I want to play them on the iPad.
    It's not looking good for a solution but I figured surely someone has found or created something (don't understand why Apple didn't!)
    The main app I want the app data sync'd on is Cat Physics.

    It depends on the game - some will sync scores over Game Center or over their own server (the crossword puzzle app I use gives us two options - their own server or Game Center). You'll have to contact the makers of Cat Physics to find out - Apple did create this functionality in GC, but it's up to the developer to chose to use it.

  • Is there any way to sync essbase heirarchy to MDM ?

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any way to Sync essbase heirarchy to MDM ?
    I want to put essbase outline to MDM...the need is not to create a new heirarchy in MDM and use existing heirarchy/ outline from Essbase ..

    Sure. Install the latest version of iTunes on your PC, and just connect your iPod Touch to it, decline the prompt to autosync (the warning about losing your music), then go into the info tab, select sync contacts, and click apply. Your contacts will be transferred (both directions, i.e. the outlook contacts and your IPT contacts will be merged and the combined set will be present on both lists).
    Hope this helps...

  • Is there some way I can insert and play these additional audio files, accessible via separate button

    I am converting a CD-ROM course to an online format with that software.
    In the majority of slides created I have used the Import Audio function to insert a primary audio file containing important curriculum information.
    This file typically activates the moment you open the slide.
    So far so good.
    However, in many slides I also need to insert some secondary audio files.
    While the Import Audio function permits me to splice several files into one, this isn't what I want.
    Instead, I need to insert one or more additional audio files that can be activated independently via separate buttons on a given slide.
    I can in fact do this with the Insert Button function, but in the process a Windows Media Player file opens when I convert the project into HTML.
    My question:
    Is there some way I can insert and play these additional audio files, accessible via separate buttons, without creating and opening a Windows Media Player file?
    Thanks

    It is hard to assess the situation without sitting at your computer and having a look myself.  First, if you're seeing space savings I doubt all your files are a compressed format.  Frequently if you try compressing a compressed format file such as AAC (don't confuse with AIFF) you will actually find the file gets larger because there is overhead to compression and if it cannot compress any more then you end up just adding overhead on top of no savings.  Second, normally if you zip the iTunes library it would basically make it inaccessible to iTunes and iTunes would make you a brand new library or at least flag all your tracks as missing (as you are seeing ain part).
    I don't know what computer you are running, which operating system, which version of iTunes.  Unless they have done something radical in Lion in terms of letting you zip your iTunes folder and still have it functional, you either didn't zip the whole thing, or... I don't know.  One scenario is that somehow your media have been split up and you have them in several locations.  One isn't really part of your library except for 80 tracks, so when you compressed it (and I still am puzzled by the compression unless it was AIFF files you were no longer using), it didn't really make much difference to the playability.  Then you have an untouched library elsewhere.
    Use the Reveal In Finder command to see where some of those problem files are located vs. where the playable files are located.

  • Football manager handheld: I am playing a game of this on my iPad and was wondering if I can get the same game on my iPhone when I go out the house? Is there a way of syncing them together so the same game is on both devices?

    Is there a way of syncing my game to bothe devices an iPhone 4s and an iPad 2 bro!

    You can sync the saves between devices by using the Apple sharing through iTunes to copy save games (and other items) on and off from a device.
    - Connect your iPod/iPad/iPhone to your computer
    - Open iTunes, then select the device in the panel at the left
    - Select 'Apps' then at the bottom you should notice an area called 'File Sharing'
    - Select 'FM 2012' or 'FM 2011' (depending on which game you have) from the apps listed and you'll see a handful of files in the panel on the rightAny ".dat" files are saved games and you'll have up to 5 of them. "hidden.dat" is the autosave file, while "fm_save1.dat" through to "fm_save4.dat" are manually saved files named according to their position in the save slots.
