1 iMac. 2 users. Don't want to mix pictures.
I will be buying an iMac and there will be two users (wife and I) both with iPhones. I want to sync both phones to the computer and not mix photos, music, notes, etc. (essentially using it as two computers). Is this possible? I will be backing up to a Time Capsule also. If this is not possible would it be better to buy a second Mac like a Mac Book Pro and back it up to the same Time Capsule? Will the time capsule save individual computer backups?
No idea on Time Capsule.
But make a second seperate User on the new Mac...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new account, for one of you.

I have forgotten my password for iPod Touch 4G and it is now disabled. I tried connecting to iTunes but i haven't synced before and i need to enter the password before i can back it up so i can restore it. I don't want to lose pictures so please HELP!
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
My iphone 5 is telling me to restore - don't want to lose pictures/messages
screen shows the itunes character and usb cord. don't want to restore and lose pictures and messages
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

Gifting the iPod Touch to clients... don't want to loose pictures
We have purchased about 15 iPod touches that we would like to give to clients as gifts for the holidays. We would like to pre-load the touch with pictures from each client's projects that we have worked on (10-15 pics per client per iPod) and maybe pre-set the background with a company logo that says happy holidays and thanks for your business.
I haven't started pre-loading any of the iPods yet just to make sure I don't mess something up. Is it possible to load these pictures and maybe the background on the touch before giving it as a gift? Well... I'm sure that is possible... but what I'm thinking about is... we would probably have to associate each with our iTunes first (giving it a name, uploading the pics, etc...) before giving it to the client. Once the client connects it to their iTunes... it is probably going to erase all of the photos that we put on it... right? Is there a way to do what we are wanting to do without them loosing the photos when they first hook it up? They always have the option of removing them at their own leisure but we think it would be great to have their project photos on their when they first open it w/ the ability to keep those photos on their if they want.
Thanks for your help,
-BrockThat might be an ok (or only) alternative. I was hoping to make it as seamless and easy as possible on our clients... but I guess if worse comes to worse we could brand up a CD with both the pictures and then also instructions on how to get their project photos BACK on the Touch after iTunes has deleted it after the first sync.

Our customers print .pdf invoices to send to patients. Since the Firefox 19 update, a header appears at the top of each page with the .pdf name and our URL. This also occurs for any reports that they print. Is there any way to get rid of this header?
hello, firefox 19 has introduced its own integrated pdf viewer - if you want to switch back to the plugin you've used before to view pdfs just go to firefox options > applications & scroll down and define the default action for the '''portable document format (pdf)'''.

How do i take podcasts out of my itunes12 library? i don't want them mixed in with my songs!
The podcasts in the new iTunes12 appear inside the body of my songs library. How do I keep them separate? There doesn't seem to be an option.
I just discovered a solution! Go to the upper right hand corner in Firefox where the search bar is. Click on the icon and you'll get a drop-down menu. Go to "manage search engines". You can then delete all the no-good ones, like Bing and Yahoo.

I stripped the old iPad (the one I gave my wife), so now she only has the contacts and photos "suitable" for her. When Iwoke up this morning my iphone and my new iPad had only the photos and contacts that I left her on her old iPad!! That really *****! I've lost all of my contacts and quite a few photos. Is there a way to restore the old settings here?
Are sharing an account with your wife?

I record multiple tracks of real instruments and vocals wth Garage Band. I want to share the file with a collaborator so he can add another instrument or two. I have not found a way to do this without the process mixing down the tracks. I don't want them mixed down like when I send them to Itunes. Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes. I thought I saw a method to do this with software instruments, but how do you do it with real instruments? I've tried every process on the "export" list to try to accomplish this, without success. Thanks for any breakthrough advice on this!
As isteveus said - for large projects uploading to a server would be best.
Also I can't seem to just attach a file directly to an email for sending purposes.
But for completeness's sake , you cou can mail a project, if you ctrl-click the project and use "Compress xxx.band". This will compress the project and create a zip file, that you can mail (if it is not too large). But ask your friend for the maximal file size allowed as a mail attachment.
But whichever method you use to share your project, be sure you include all loops and instruments, if your friend does not have the same JamPacks installed. You can bundle the loops into the project by saving it as an archive. "File > Save as" and check the "Archive Project" option.
If this option should be disabled, you can force it to become active by editing your project slightly. It is only available, if the project needs saving.

I am attempting to use my Apple TV and Ipad for a public presentation and want to show business pictures on the screen saver, but I don't want personal family pictures shown. Is there a way to limit these photos or set up an album for the screen saver on the presentation?
Put the photos that you wish to use for your presentation or screensaver into a photo stream shared album and then choose that album as your screensaver in your screensaver settings.

Iphone only wants to import pictures to computer
When I connected my phone to the computer the other day it asked me what I wanted to do when the phone is connected. I thought I just closed it but I must have chose import pictures because that's all my phone wants to do now. When I connect it to the computer a window pops up asking me if I want to import the pictures and I click no or close and it just closes and that's it. I'm not given any other options. Since I'm trying to work with music and not pictures, I'm wondering if there's a way to change what the phone does when it's connected. It used to automatically open ITunes whenever it was connected and I could just go ahead and sync it but it's not even showing up in ITunes. I've been to the forum and tried everything that was suggested. I uninstalled and reinstalled ITunes, I restarted my computer with the phone connected, the apple mobile device driver is there, nothing helps. I have a feeling it all has to do with what the computer wants to do with the phone when it's connected, and that's pictures. If I don't want to import pictures then it doesn't do anything. Where do I change this?
Check that your preferences are correct, under iTunes preferences check that under devices this is unticked, this should mean that iTunes opens when a device is connected
For photos go to iPhoto preferences and choose this option under the general tab
Hope this helps -
I have the photographer plan With Photoshop and Lightroom. Now suddenly The creative cloud app says that Lightroom isn´t installed. It is and how do i fix this. I don´t want to loose any pictures. Tried logging in and out. Also restarted my Imac with no luck.
This has nothing to do with your pictures. As long as LR works, nothing happens. The CC app merely has lost an entry in the installer database. Would a reinstall fix it? Sure. Is it necessary? Not really (until the next version or update). So unless you have too much time to spend or something isn't working, I'm sure you can find more interesting things to do with your tiem. Otherwise use the cleaner tool and get to it:

Lost my hard drive and also an Ipad, but have 7 k photos on a Touch that I need to load on fixed IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it. (There were more photos than the 7k, but they were saved on other drives, thank goodness). 7K pohotos on the Touch are no where else, must be saved! Just never went from a Touch to iMac. I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics! New Aperture and IPhoto on IMAC with no other photos loaded on the new hard drive yet.
I'd ask in the iTouch forum where there are more iTouch users there than here and they should know how to off load the photos. It might take a 3rd party app.

Don't want to share apps for 2 users
My wife and I share an iMac and we each have iPhones and iPads. We don't want to share our apps because then we have to remember each other's pass word etc. How do we keep our apps separate when we sync our device with the iMac? We are separate users on the iMac.
Hello drnwv,
As long as you make sure to sync your iPhone in your iTunes on your user and as long as your wife syncs her iPhone in her iTunes on her user all will be good. The libraries will stay separate and you should not have anything to worry about. Take a look at the article below for more information.

When I put my SD card into my imac it automatically starts loading into an autoload program. I don't want this to happen. I want to be able to just open my card and drag my files where I want them to be.
I cannot figure out how to turn this feature off. Please help me with this.
ThanksJust to cover all possibilities, open iPhoto > Preferences and make sure you have the same "no application" marked there:
And, make sure your Finder Preferences are set to show external disks on the desktop - that way, your card's icon on the desktop and you can do with the pictures as you wish.

Can any one tell me how can I move to a different folder pictures, that I've cloned, without them staying aggregated? They all come together to the other folder and I don't want that… thanks
There's more to it than that.
Folders in Aperture do not hold Images. They hold Projects and Albums. You cannot put an Image in a Folder without putting it in a Project or an Album inside that Folder.
The relationship between Projects and Images is special: every Image must in a Project, and can be in only one Project.
Images can be in as many Albums you want. Putting an Image in an Album does not move it from the Project that holds it.
You can make as many Versions from a Master as you want.
What you want to do may appear simple to you, but it still much adhere to how Aperture works. I still can't tell exactly what you are trying to do (specifically: Images don't live in Folders; moving an Image from a Folder is non-sensical).
It can be very confusing (and frustrating) to get going with Aperture -- but it does work, and can be enormously helpful. If you haven't, take a look at the video tutorials on Apple's Aperture support site.
I feel as though I haven't helped you much -- but we need to be using the same names for interface items in order to get anything done -- and my sense is that you still haven't learned the names of the parts.
