Can I put songs in my library onto another library on the same computer???

I have a song on my library, and someone in my family wants it on his library ON THE SAME COMPUTER. Is there a way to put it on his library without him having to buy it for himself???
Please help me. I don't want to have to buy one for his library.

This question really is more about itunes and not about the ipod nano. Please repost this question in the correct forum that regards itunes and windows. THe correct forum is linked below.

You can try this. Does the second person have their own itunes music store account for the 2nd itunes library? What you can try doing is authorizing the purchased music from your itunes account to play on the 2nd persons library. Or it might be easy just to spend 99 cents for the 1 song.

How do I share a playlist from my itunes library with another user on the same computer?

I would like to share a playlist with another uuser on the same computer. We have separate itunes libraries on the same computer. How do gey my playlist from my library to hers?

I'm not sure, but maybe if you activate home sharing. It should also share playlists, not only files.
The only other way I can think of is to export the playlist and import for the other user.

How do I copy iTunes purchases from one iTunes library to another stored on the same computer but with different apple ID's?

I recently set up a new iTunes account for my son by giving him his own Apple ID & own login on the Mac we own.
In addition I have an existing iTunes account with a different Apple ID & different login on the same Mac.
We would like to share some purchases but do not know how to copy or import certain files. The summary is two
different apple ID's, different iTunes libraries, on the same computer, but different parts of the hard drive.
Please advise. Thanks.

Load the library which doesn't contain the songs and drag them into the open iTunes application window. If you need to move them between different computer user accounts, put them into /Users/Shared/.

Sharing iTunes library with another user on the same computer

My husband and I use the same iMac and have the same iTunes login, but have different user accounts on our computer.
When I download things from iTunes, they only show up in my library and do not show up in his. In addition, the two libraries are not syncing. I want everything in my library to also be in his.
I have tried home sharing, and that is not working. I'm guessing that's because the two accounts are on the same computer -- rather than two computers on the same network. The only thing I can figure out is to manually drop the files in the shared folder. But it has to be easier than this.
Please help.

How do I share my iTunes library with another user on the same computer?

I trired to follow the instructions provided by I-Tunes which was to move the ITunes media library to the shared section, however, the computer will not allow me to do this. When I drag the file to the shared section, it will only allow me to drop it into the Airport. I tried hovering it over the "shared" title but it's not working.
Is there another solution?

Hello Kathy,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to move your iTunes Library.
It sounds like you may be trying to move it to the "Shared" titled on the Finder Sidebar. When you see "Shared" in the Finder Sidebar, this is just a title and not an actual folder.
I recommend moving your iTunes Library to either the "Public" folder in your user accoung to the "Shared" folder listed in the Users folder. You can access the Shared folder by clicking Go at the top of the screen with Finder open, and selecting Computer>Macintosh HD>Users>Shared:
Drag the iTunes Media folder to a public location. For example, you could move it to the Public folder in your Home folder (~/Public) or to a location outside your Home folder that other users can access (/Users/Shared).
Important: Don't move the iTunes folder, the iTunes library file, or the iTunes library.xml file.

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly Thanks anyway!

What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?

What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?
Currently I have a common itunes library in a shared folder that each user is linked to. The problem is that when one user adds music to the shared file, it does not automaticaly appear to other users when they open their iTunes. They have to go to the shared library and select the new music in order to make it visable in their iTunes.
Would iTunes file shareing fix this problem?
Thanks

Rick, are you saying that if you try to share a folder outside of home and use sharepoints, then the other mac wont prompt you to log in? Have you tried that? It is hard to believe that is the case
I am sort of saying that. Have you tried it? I know it's hard to believe, but you really need to help us out by trying some steps that you don't believe.
We can't see what your exact situation is. We sort of know what's worked for us out here. Just trying to help you get this going in less than 24 hours!
Sharepoints manages the samba configuration file. It's free software that puts a pretty face on an otherwise cumbersome config file.
Give it a shot.
windows will not prompt for passwords, I have tried this with multiple computer at home for both vista and xp
As I stated. You will not get prompted on windows, if you have set up sharing in an insecure fashion. You are not using a secured sharing situation.
No argument with your statement.

Sharing itunes library with all users on the same computer

I am trying to share the itunes library with 4 users on the same computer. Please tell me how.

I've been trying to find a way to do this easily as well. It would be good if you could set iTunes to use the "All User" documents folder instead of the My Documents folder for the storing the main library and just use the My Documents Folder for individual playlists.
Follow the instructions in the link provided by Mimico Kid.
** It is not important that the shared folder is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Music. It can be any shared folder on the PC. On mine it's H:\iTunes as I don't have the space on the C: drive.
When you've done that make sure that your Adminstrator account's copy of iTunes shows the Library, Playlists and Album art as you want the all the users to see them.
Then copy all of the remaining files from the Administrator Accounts iTunes folder into every other users iTunes folder.
** C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Documents\My Music\iTunes
If any user adds songs or modifies playlists the administrator will need to log on and copy the files from that users iTunes folder to everyone elses.
This might be a slightly cumbersome way around the problem but it works for me. It has the disadvantage or advantage whichever way you look at it that every User will see an identical view with identical playlists.

How can I using tpcall from one service to another service in the same server

ok. However,
when I using tpcall from one service to another service, it's failed?
anybody can tell me why?Basically, tpcall:ing another service in the same server is a no-no, unless you
a) are running a multi-threaded server (requires TUXEDO 7 or newer + compilation
options) or
b) use tpacall() instead of tpcall() and specify the flag TPNOREPLY. This is probably
not what you want to accomplish, though.
The reason is that TUXEDO servers by default (and always in versions before 7)
are single-threaded. If service A and B both reside in server X, server X will
be busy taking care of the call to A. If A makes a call to B, the call will be
put on the queue to X, but X will not look at the queue until it is done with
A, which won't happen until B returns... deadlock!
You can play tricks with starting multiple instances of X, but in the end you
will always face a risk (something lika a race-condition) for a dead-lock.
Solution: Move service B to another server (usually quite easy) OR switch to multi-threading,
if that's possible. Just make sure all code your service calls is MT-safe as well...
thanks
georgeHope this helps you,

Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions

I have an iCloud email address on my iMac. How can I create an icloud email address for my wife on the same computer?

If all you want is an additional email address you can create up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account.
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
If you want to keep her email separate from yours she will need to create a new Apple ID, and use it to create a new iCloud account either on a separate computer or on a separate User Account on your Mac.

Can one obj access a private variable of another obj of the same class

Can one object access a private variable of another object of the same class?
If so, how?

Declaring variable private means you can not access this variable outside class
But other objects of same class can access it. Because each object have separate copy of variable and may have diff. contents for same variable.
