Burning songs from multiple computers

i use my ipod on multiple computers when i connect my ipod to my motherboard computer theres a link at the top of my itunes which allows me to burn all of my purchased music onto a CD however when i connect my ipod to the other computer there is no link at the top of itunes which says 'burn disc' therefore it does not let me burn any of my purchased music onto a CD. How do i get itunes to burn my purchased music on the other computer??? as my motherboard computer does not recognise when i put CDs in so i need to burn the purchased songs onto CD from the other computer please help thanx xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Connecting the iPod has nothing to do with burning a CD.
You cannot burn songs off the iPod. They must be in the library.
Create a new playlist and put the purchased music on it.
Select the playlist and click Burn at the top right of iTunes.
my motherboard computer
Not sure what this means. All computers have a motherboard.
Do you mean your desktop computer?

Upload songs from multiple computers?

Has anyone figured out if there is a way to UPLOAD songs from multiple computers. Note, I don't want to sync. I want to be able to plug my iPhone in at my office and put mp3s which I buy at work onto the phone. This works on the iPod, but not the iPhone as far as I can tell.

I'm also having this issue and it seem to be a silly limitation to me. Using the same iTunes account, I was able to upload music and apps from my phone to my wife's computer. However, I can't put any of the music on her computer to my iPhone....strange that it works one way but not the other. Both computers authorized using the same iTunes account. Never thought that it would be an issue, since I'm able to do this with my various iPods.

Synchronized playback from multiple computers?

My roommates and I have about 5 computers all over the house. We can all access each other's iTunes libraries, but we would like to all be able to listen to the same playlist or songs at the same time as we wander around the house. There must be an app out there that allows the simultaneous playback from multiple computers, so that every computer can be playing the same song at the same time, no?

It looks like I could play my music in VLC, then broadcast a stream over the network, however, this won't account for latency, and won't do any synchronization of the other computers. Plus, I'm not really interested in using VLC for playlists and organizing my music... Is this in the works at Apple, by any chance?

Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?

Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?
IPads and iPod Touches don't seem to have the same media copying restriction that my iPhone has. My main computer is at home. I have music at home and at work and sometimes I like to add it to my iPhone from work. I can do this no problem using my iPad or my iPod touch, but when it comes to my iPhone, I can only copy music to it from my main computer.
Why would the iPhone have this restriction but not the other two devices?
ps. Where's my "add currently playing song to playlist" button? I can't even find a third-party music app with this feature.

Because...!
I've no idea why either.
Although it isn't normally possible to sync an iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers (or manually manage an iPhone from more than one) it can be achieved if all computers have copies of the self same library. See Re: how do i sync on a second laptop without the data on my iPhone 5 being erased?

Can I put an aperture library on a network drive and edit from multiple computers?

I have an Imac desktop and a macbook pro. I want to be able to edit pictures from multiple computers. If I simply put the aperture library on a network server drive in my home, can I edit the same aperture library from both the Imac and the macbook? Rather than always having to sit in my office making changes to files I would love to also be able to do this with my laptop sitting ont the couch or in the kitchen. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Get yourself a small portable external drive for your Aperture library.
An Aperture library needs to be on directly connected drive formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled). network access is not supported and can lead to data loss and library corruption.
See Apple's support document: Use locally mounted Mac OS X Extended volumes for your Aperture library

How do I import songs from different computers with home sharing?

I am trying to share music from my Macbook Pro to my father's Mac Desktop. I was able to get the 'home sharing' to work; I can see and play my father's music and he is able to play mine too. I was trying to import the songs but I am not able to copy & paste and I do not see an 'import' button at the bottom right of our windows when selecting songs. Am I missing a step or is there something else I do not know?

After researching through the forums, I figured it out. You have to make sure you are logged in under the same account on both computers. At first I was logged under my account on my computer and logged in under my father's account on my father's computer. You have to choose one account to log in under on both computers and then you will be abler to import songs from both computers. If you do not log in under the same account, you will be able to listen to both computers' music, but not import.

How to prevent a solaris user to telnet from multiple computers

Hello,
How to prevent Solaris users to telnet from multiple computers? They should be able to telnet from only one PC.
Please help..

ora_tech have a good point, i was about to suggest ipfilter, which is a built-in-firewall in Solaris, but using tcp wrappers would probably be easier. It all depends on which level of security you want (blocking the telnet requests in a firewall would generally be safer than blocking them at the tcp wrapper level, since its prevents some processing).
Since Solaris 10 you can also easily enable tcp wrappers on the inetd services with inetadm, see:

How to transfer videos onto iPad from multiple computers?

I have an iPad mini. Most of the time, I don't use it with a computer, but occasionally, I need to load videos onto it for editing. I have two comptuers I need to load videos from (work and home). Do I understand correctly that this is not possible? I can manage media from multiple computers via iTunes, but it appears that the only way to get videos into the camera roll is to actually sync with iTunes? And that's can only be done with one computer at a time? And that changing which computer I use wipes the iPad?
I've tried both Google Drive and Dropbox as well, and while the videos do show up and are playable, there doesn't appear to be any way to get the videos out of either app. The videos are in MP4 format.
Any advice?

One work around could be: say you sync with comptuer A, use dropbox to get the videos from B to A, then iTunes to get them from A to your iPad.

Is it possible to access a single Lightroom catalogue mounted on a shared drive from multiple computers, each with an individual Lightroom install?

No, Lightroom catalogs cannot be on a networked (shared) drive, and they do not support simultaneous multi-user access

How do I have catalog on an external drive and update tags from multiple computers?

I have catalog on an external drive but the tags are on the computer. Is there any way that tags can be placed on the external drive so that other computers can access and update?

In case its just the tags that you want to have in one catalog that is easy.From multiple computers save the tags to the xml file.Copy the xml file to the external drive where the catalog resides.From there you can import the tags into the catalog.
Command for exporting tags ->Save tags to file in the tags panel of the application
Command for importing tags->From file

Help with uploading photos to iPod from multiple computers

I uploaded photos from my computer at home quite easily. Then I plugged my iPod into my computer at work, went to the Photos tab in iTunes, and asked it to sync photos from My Photos on my computer. It proceeded to delete all the photos I had uploaded from home. How can I prevent it from deleting photos previously on the iPod?
Thanks.

You can't load photos from multiple computers. There's no manual mode for photos, just different ways to sync. Syncing on a different computer will erase what's there. You can read a bit more here: iTunes and iPod: Frequently asked questions (FAQ) about Photo Sync

Cover flow albums show songs from multiple albums

I love my iPod classic. the only issue I'm having is that when reviewing some albums via the coverflow feature, about 5 albums shows songs from multiple albums. they play correctly. It appears just the listing is messed up. I've tried deleting, adding the albums back to the library and resyncing, but it's still happening. Anybody seen this?

Try *One cover, too many tracks* below:
*HowTo: Grouping Tracks Into Albums*
Excuse the long post, but hopefully covering all the bases (that I can think of) will help you fix the other issues you are likely to run into as you try to organise your iTunes library.
*Use an album friendly view*
iTunes will let you sort music on many columns, some of which are unlikely to group albums together or put the tracks in their normal order. The most useful order for editing the library is probably *Album by Artist*. If you're not already there, select the list view and click on the column heading for Artist until it reads Album by Artist.
*One cover, too many tracks*
The iPod (and iTunes to a lesser extent) conflates two or more albums with the same title, most obviously with *Greatest Hits*. On the iPod this can result in one album acting as a combination of two or more. Selecting any cover gives all the tracks of all albums with the same title. The workaround for this "Greatest Hits" bug is to give each album a unique title - I tend to go for *Album - Album Artist* as this reads clearly in the iTunes browser. Alternatively you could use the wording as it appears on the cover or append different numbers of spaces for each different album. Somewhat oddly, setting different values for Sort Album doesn't work.
*Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist*
iTunes relies on the Gracenote CDDB database when identifying CD's. This often marks collections or anthologies of an artist's work as a compilation. In iTunes, however, the compilation flag has the logical function of grouping together tracks with the same album name, but different artists on each track, e.g. "Now That's What I Call Metal 666!". These compilations are then all grouped together at the end of cover flow. Most of us however, would expect "Greatest Hits" albums to be listed with the other albums by the same album artist. For albums which are essentially by a single album artist or group it is best to set the appropriate value for the album artist and clear the compilation flag.
*One album, too many covers*
For true compilations, where each track is by a different artist, the answer is to set the compilation flag to true and enable the iTunes preference to *Group compilations when browsing*. If the album is not a compilation however, any tracks which list guest artists may be treated as separate items. Filling in the Album Artist field is enough to link things in iTunes. Sadly, however, the iPod ignores the Album Artist field when grouping albums so this is only a partial solution. You can simply mark the entire album as a compilation which seems to be the way iTMS handles it, however that's not an ideal fix. Short of waiting for Apple to address this issue (and as far as I can tell it goes back to the 1st gen. of iPods) we need a workaround. What I do is to put any additional artist info. in square brackets after the song name. E.g. *Track \[Feat. Guest\]* and then set *Artist=Album Artist* for each track. For anthologies where the Album Artist is credited as part of another group, e.g. for Cream tracks on an Eric Clapton anthology, I use *Track \[As Group\]*. For a track where the main Album Artist doesn't receive a credit, e.g. the first track of the Slim Shady LP credited to Jeff Bass, I just set the track name to *Track \[Guest\]* while still setting the artist to the album artist. N.b. I use square brackets to indicate that this is information about the track as distinct from the song title and also use this style for Mix/Live/Bonus info.
*One album, still too many covers*
iTunes may split albums into two or more sections if some tracks from the album have different values for Artist, Album Artist, Album, No. of Discs or Part of a Compilation. Tiny differences such as trailing spaces, accented characters or variants of symbols can sometimes be quite hard to spot. The iPod is also more sensitive to case variations and may split or reorder an album that looks okay in iTunes. Normally overtyping the desired value for each shared field will complete the grouping of the album into one entity. Occasionally, however, this method seems to fail. When this happens I've found that you can force every field to update properly by adding some extra text - e.g. a trailing X, which once applied seems to complete the joining of the tracks into one album. Once this has happened the extra data can be removed and the album should remain properly grouped.
*Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!*
The Sort Artist, Sort Album & Sort Album Artist fields can be used to override the normal sort order. For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.
*One cover for multi-disc album*
Multi-disc albums are often listed as *Album (CD1)* for CD 1, *Album (CD2)* for CD 2 etc. To display these properly using just one cover, each disc should have the correct *Disc X of Y* values set, and then the entire album should be given the single title Album. Being somewhat obsessive I also renumber the tracks sequentially, working backwards from the last track (so that no two tracks ever have the same number) until I reach disc 1. BTW You can still give the individual discs different artwork should it be relevant so that the correct artwork will be displayed as the album progresses.
*One artist, many names*
With some artists, particularly classical composers, you should be aware of alternative representations of their names. E.g. 2Pac vs. Tupac. The menus will work best if for each artist you standardise on just one form of their name. E.g. make a choice between Mozart, W.A. Mozart or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and then apply it consistently. For classical music I tend also to use the Composer as the Artist & Album Artist and either discard the performer details or place these into the Comments field.

Family Pack...posting iWeb from multiple computers?

So I apologize if this is a silly question...but need to verify my hunch. If I purchase a .mac family pack, can we post multiple iWeb sites from each of our four computers to that .mac account? So the sites would be, for example, web.mac.com/smithfamily/amy, and web.mac.com/smithfamily/scott...and such? I guess the real question, is can this happen from multiple computers accessing the same .mac account without them overwriting each other's sites? Thanks.

Hi Amy,
I think this probably remains to be seen.
If you are using iWeb1.1.2, I would say yes, you can definitely do this, as you have described.
If you are using iWeb2.0, I would say maybe not. 2.0 is publishing to a different directory on the iDisk than 1.1.2 did, and each publish to this directory, at least, from a separate/different Domain.sites2 file, erases the previously published site to the iDisk.
It is a good question whether or not this would happen with individual machines, publishing to the same .Mac account, and this would actually be very helpful information about what it is that is causing this problem, should you be successful.
I have two machines myself, and I publish to the same .Mac account from each; however, only one of them is using iWeb2.0.
I say give it a try, using the 60 day trial version of .Mac. If it doesn't work then you haven't lost anything. (Not sure if you can try the family pack in a trial version)

Administrating iTunes Library by from multiple computers pc/osx

Hello.
I need to find a way to administrate same Library from multiple computers. What I need is a opportunity not only to listen my media (that's why original iTunes sharing suit me), but to Add, organize, create playlists e.t.c.
I want my Playlists be available and editable ( ! ) for all my computers.
I want to add music from any of my computers and to have all the rest app to date.
All the data will be stored on a Server computer. So what the OS is needed for the solution?
In addition I have both PC and OSX computers at home and It'll be bettor if the solution will suit this.
Thanks.

iTunes doesn't support this much syncing. Yes you can have all machines saving media files to same location (server) but each machine/account will have different iTunes libraries. Changes made on on will not be reflected on others. This is intentional so that different people would not interfere with libraries of other users.
This is especially needed for podcasts. Each account downloads/deletes podcast episodes independent of other accounts. This allows one to delete an episode without making making another account lose the file.
