Can I transfer iTunes and other applications to second user on same Mac?
I am hoping I can create a second user account with just iTunes and Traktor (music software) to help eliminate any problems with Traktor from other programs running in the background etc.
Can I transfer my music to the second user's iTunes? Can I move Traktor to the second user, it is an instaled application? If so, how?
Thanks.
Move the iTunes library in the Music item of the Finder's sidebar to the /Users/Shared/ folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, and point it there.

i can't transfer music and other files from library to my iphone 4 by dragging it.can anyone help me?is there any other way to transfer files into iphone?
If you want to drag and drop ( don;t know why you would do this), you will have to check manually manage music.
Why not just sync?

HT4437 Can't get iTunes and monitor mirroring to work at the same time.
When I turn on my airplay on itunes it turns off the airplay from my monitor. I don't know how I've done it before but I sometimes can't play itunes and have it mirror my screen at the same time so I can use the visualizer. Whenever I turn one on, the other shuts off. I've done it before. Is there a specific sequence you need to run itunes and have the mirroring work too?
AkYou might try a simple headphone splitter like this:

ITunes and other applications "not responding" after impoting CD's
Hi....After I import songs from a my CD collection into into my iTunes (version 7.02) library, many applications, including iTunes, freeze up and are "not responding", and I'm forced to CTRL-ALT-DEL to "end task" on the unresponsive applications. For example, if I have my AOL browser running, I can no longer open new web pages after importing a CD on iTunes. Also, after closing the applications (via CTRL-ALT-DEL), nothing happens when I double click on them again to reopen the programs (again, including itunes itself). To be able to run the programs again I have to either restart the computer or log off my user ID and log back on. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Dell Dimension Windows XP Pentium 4 - 2.52 GHz, 768 MB of RAMI am having similar problem. After I imported songs
from CD and exit itunes, I try to log off and my
computer freezes up. It doesn't log off, screen goes
black. I can't do anything, not even ctr-alt-del. I
have to push button to power off. Does anyone know
whats going on? Help
Ok, I'm embarrassed that I didn't try this fix before posting my initial question, as any sane Windows user should know to try this troubleshoot early on for many Windows problems: Running the disk defragmenter solved the problem of my PC feezing after I imported a CD into iTunes. Katikat..I'm not sure how close your issue is to the problem I was having, but I suugest trying it if you haven't already. If you've never run the disk defrag it's easy: START -- All Programs -- Accessories -- System Tools -- Disk Defragmenter, then choose your hard drive(s). Depending on how much stuff is on your hard drive and how long it's been since you last defrag, this can take anywhere from 10 minutes to over an hour. Not sure if this will help with your problem, but worth a try. Best of luck. Piachet

How can I share Quicken and other apps with another user on the same iMac?
I would like to share some apps including Quicken with anoter user on the same iMac. I have put the Quicken app and the .QFX file in /usrs/share and changed the permissions to R/W on both files but when I log in as the other user and run Quicken it does not use the .QFX file and instead comes up with no accounts.
The Quicken app. should be in the Applications folder at the root of Macintosh HD. It's accessible to all users from there.
To share a file, (this from Finder Help menu)
"Sharing files with others who use your computer
You can share files with others who use your computer by placing the files in the Public folder in your home folder. Anyone with an account on your computer can read or copy the items you put in your Public folder (except for your Drop Box folder, which only you can open).
To share files using your Public folder:
Copy the files you want to share into your Public folder, inside your home folder.
To give a copy of a file directly to another person, copy it to their Drop Box folder (inside their Public folder), where only they can see it."
When opening a file just double-click the file - it will open the application automatically. -
Can I transfer money to other accounts on my iPad with iOS 5.1.1? I created another account and put an iTunes gift card on it, but then I realized that all of my apps ere on another account, so when I recovered the password of my previous account, I had money on an account that I do not want to use. Can I transfer the money over?
Not on your own. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.

I am considering buying an iPad 3. I have an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. On the iMac I have many photos and work with iPhoto and Photoshop Elements on the computer. Can I interchange or transfer photos and other work from the iMac to the iPad? How?

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want. -
My iPad will not charge, it can sync to iTunes and transfer data/music to it, but when plugged in to a USB or an A/C wall adapter all it says is not charging.
A lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
In terms of the wall charger, have you tried a different charger and/or cable, or do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?
Have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
how can i transfer my rarely used applications and files so i can make room on my computer harddrive?
Well the applications you should leave alone as they install files elsewhere that are needed like preferences etc that won't be on the external drive if you attempt to run it from there.
Some programs are completely self contained and will run just fine from a external drive, but applicaiton's are usually small.
Now your user files! That could use some thinning for sure! Especially stuff you don't use that often and Video files which take up a lot of space.
You can buy a external USB drive at any office / computer supply store and just plug it in and backup files via drag and drop.
What happens when you plug in a drive is TimeMachine will pop up and ask to make it a TimeMachine drive, this just backups up everything on your computer to restore from in case your OS X or boot drive fails. It's a image of your drive and so whatever is on the boot drive is on the TM drive. So that doesn't server your purpose which is you want to free some space off your main boot drive.
However you should get another drive and allow TM to do it's thing to that drive, also to make a hold option bootable clone of your boot drive (using yet another external drive) using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper so in case your boot drive fails you can quickly and easily boot off the clone and have a working machine right away.
One of the posters here has a excellent instructions what does what, both should be used to backup your data.

My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps. How can I correct this?
If you are sure that you have sound in other apps - and if you can still hear keyboard clicks and get notifications, then system sounds are not muted. Try this and see if it works.
Close all apps completely and reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
