Can I have an SCCM 2012 R2 server and a SCCM 2012 SP1 server in the same site?
We are currently using SCCM 2012 SP1/MDT 2012 Update 1 to deploy Windows 7, and to migrate existing XP installs to Windows 7 (using the offline USMT functionality in MDT). We are moving forward with Windows 8.1, and understand that
we need to upgrade our SCCM infrastructure to SCCM 2012 R2/MDT 2013. We also understand that this will cause us to lose the ability to migrate XP machines, since MDT 2013 uses a newer version of USMT that doesn’t support XP.
What do we need to do to continue to support our XP migrations, and enable deployments of Windows 8.1?
Can we have two SCCM servers in the same Site running different versions of SCCM? Do we need a separate site?
You don't explicitly need ConfigMgr 2012 R2 to support Win 8.1. SP1 CU3 will suffice although managing a few things like boot images is a little more difficult: http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2013/10/21/how-to-enable-windows-8.1-deployment-in-sc-2012-configmgr-sp1-cu3.aspx
You could create two separate site hierarchies, but that would be painful and involve tons of duplication. There would be other issues also if the systems are located on the same subnets and in the same AD forest.
The best option is to get rid of XP. EOL is in less than 30 days!
Next best is to stay on SP1 CU3 until you get rid of XP. I know that sucks, but keeping XP around is the root cause of this and many other coming issues in any organization wanting to keep it around.

I have 2 accounts in my family and would like to purchase some of the same songs for both accounts, however when I try to purchase a duplicate song from the second account the song says play instead of purchase. How can I get some of the same songs?

I woud like to watch my videos on my Ipad with out loading it on to the Ipad. I can plug my camera directly into my tv and watch, I would like to do the same with my Ipad.
Import the videos into iTunes on your computer and use Home Sharing to stream the videos to the iPad. These should get you started.

My sister and I share computers, but it's really her Mac because she got it for her birthday. I'm using it because there is no other place to hold my iTunes library, documents, photos, etc.
She complains that I make the computer too slow after I downloaded/installed too many apps from the Mac App Store using my admin account and my iTunes account. However, they show up on her account as well, and she doesn't want to see them or have her computer slow down, so she deletes them. Is there a way to make certain apps unseen and inaccessible from other admin users on the same machine?Only by storing them on an encrypted disk image. Anyone who has an administrator password to a Mac can use it to access all unencrypted data on the system.

Hi Currently having single Apple ID for my iPad, iPhone 4S and iPhone 5. Can i have a separate Apple ID for my iPhone 4S and iPhone 5. At the moment since the apple id are same the contact are getting sync between the 2 phones which i don't want to be in Sync.Will having two separate apple ID solve the issue or is there any setting that i need to make.. Pls suggest
Thanks
RaviYes, you can certainly create a new Apple ID at appleid.apple.com (which will have to be associated with a different email address from your current ID) and then change the various settings and applications on one of your iPhones to use this new ID.

i have updated my iPhone 4s to the most recent software. my pone verified the update and switched off, it then came back up with the apple logo and the loading bar, but since it got past halfway through it's stopped and won't go any further. I've tried switching it off and it hasn't responded, what can I do?
Hi l.elvidge,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
In this situation I suggest you try resetting the device first and trying to continue update.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If that does not resolve your issue, you may need to put the device in recovery mode and restore it from a previous backup after the update installs.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Hi julia_smile,
This article has some steps you can try for camera app issues:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Camera
Camera isn't functioning
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Cheers,

I have just got Lightroom 5. Is it possible to install it on two computers (have a MacBook and a Windows Computer)?
Oh, and do I need disk storage to install it (I got it in a software box)?
I'd be grateful for an answer! ThanksYes, LR licenses are cross-platform.

Recently I have developed a problem connecting to any wifi source to include ones I have successfully connected to in the past. I have connected just fine with my other iPad, but continue to not be able to connect to wifi with the first. If I turn on the 3G it seems to work fine. I've made sure my software is updated and tried the old just reboot everything tricks without any success. Any suggestions?
Nothing works except if I use a different wi-fi so it appears that this is not a problem related to my iPad but to my wi-fi.
Any suggestions? -

if you can find a device which take in optical audio from the Apple TV and make it bluetooth to the bluetooth speaker then suppose it would work
but since it would need to be configured it would need controls or a webserver like a router has so very expensive -
I do not want to change this setting so if that is the problem, how do I undo the upgrade?
Just use one Apple ID for App Store, and separate Apple ID's for everything else.
Set one Apple ID for App Store on all three iPhones, and then for iMessage, Facetime, Photostream and iCloud - separate for each headset.
You can't undo firmware upgrade. Just make separate ID's because there is the point of using one Apple ID for App Store (Financial resons), but using one apple ID for iCloud and rest is absolutely pointless. -

I have OS X 10.8.5 and try access to Windows Server 2008R2
I have OS X 10.8.5 and try access to Windows Server 2008R2. Can help me with the steps to do it. Actually at connect show the message "Error de conexion compruebe que gestion remota en el panel compartir de preferencias del sistema esté activado en el ordenador al que intenta conectarse. Compruebe tambien que su conexcion de red funciona correctamente.
I can connect to Windows Server 2008r2 with other programs like 2X or Cord but can't copy o move files, for these reasons I'd buy Apple Remote Desktop but had the problem of conection.
Thanks for your answer.
JLCJLC - have you tried http://www.microsoft.com/mac/remote-desktop-client ? I have been using this and CORD for quite some time with success. As long as you configure to allow access to local filesystem, you can transfer filtes to/from the Windows server you are connecting to.
EDIT: actual download page for client is:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18140
One thing to note though, since I updated my MBP to 10.8.5, copy/paste of text has not worked for me with either of those RDP clients.
