Can I use autofill - but reserve space on iPhone for non-music ?

Hi
I would like to autofill my Iphone with music but reserve space on the Iphone for other media.  It seems it used to be possible, but I can't find it anymore on Itunes 11 on my Imac.  Any help? THanks!
Mike

You must have gotten an SSD in your mini, then: I didn't think of that initially.
While it is technically possible to mount an iPod and use it in disk mode to store an iTunes library, the iPod's drive is very slow and not designed for the sort of continuous use having it store your iTunes library would put it to, so I would not recommend using it as such. If you don't want to keep your library on the mini, use the external drive, or perhaps better buy another one to use for your library.  You can pick up a 500GB USB drive for under $60 if you shop around.
BTW, marking your own post as being the one to solve your problem isn't a good strategy unless you did indeed find the solution yourself and do not need any further responses.
Regards.

  • HT1329 Can I use my iPod as the only source for my music?

    I have iTunes backed up from my old computer on an external hard drive, but don't want to use up nearly half of the hard drive space on my new computer for music storage.  My iPod is 160 gig, so there's enough storage for music files.  Just added the library to the mac mini and synced the ipod but don't know if I should delete the library (on the mac mini) after I go into prefrences and change the location of the media folder to the ipod.

  • HT4901 I have HughesNet with a capped amount of Internet capacity. How can I use iCloud but adjust the time it is on to conserve my Internet allowance and not have to backup my information all the time????

    I have HughesNet satellite for an ISP with a capped amount of Internet capacity. How can I use iCloud but adjust the time it is on to conserve my Internet allowance and not have to back up my information all the time?

    Thanks Roger W1,
    Yes, I was using iTunes to sync over cable without problems since orinigal purchase in 2011 and using 10.6 w/o problem. There was an "update" in Nov 2012 that crashed the sync service. I went to the Apple Store and reviewed the problem with the Geniuses there. It was discovered at that time that the update included mandated use of iCloud but enough of the un-updated code remained that he was able to patch functions to allow Microsoft Office to still sync over iTunes.
    This March (+/-) there was another "update" to 10.6 that totally destroyed the patch that was in place so there was no sync service available between Microsoft and iTunes what-so-ever. Then recently, because of some unknown process, all my notes, contacts, and calendars were erased in both my Apple utilities and Microsoft utilities.
    After many hours of frustration I was able to recover most of the information to the Apple utilities only, but those were unstable. At my visit to the Apple store it was suggested that an upgrade to 10.8 might solve the stability problem. That it did but being connected to the iCloud all the time keeps using up all my Internet time and I have nothing left to check emails or do research.
    This, to me, is not my problem but one created by Apple. I have searched the Internet and support groups and there doesn't seem to be a solution.
    The "aircraft mode" turns off all other communication functions and is not acceptable. Neither is disconnecting/turning off Airport on my MBP.
    Thanks,
    Jay

  • I have an ipod touch but i don't have enough memory and 0I get an upgrade soon for my phone and i want the iphone but the thing is, can i have an ipod touch and an iphone on the same itunes account like can i use my money on my ipod account for my iphone

    Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account.  Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices.  You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

    Only the original cellular provider can authorize unlocking. You will need to contact them to determine if they offer unlocking and if the phone qualifies.

    Hello - This isn't a response since I have the EXACT problem.  I paid "MyTechHelp" $100 because they said they could fix it and they couldn't.  I've narrowed my understanding to this:
    1.  The phone does not need to be jailbroken
    2.  Plug the phone into iTunes and back up the phone then restore and it will be Unlocked. I got a message from iTunes saying congratulations "your phone is unlocked"
    3.  Don't pay to unlock or jailbreak ..I wasted $200 already doing that
    4.  The APN needs to be reset to your carrier ... If I figure out how I'll respond soon
    5.  I tried unlockit.co.nz and that doesn't work

  • Can I use the same icloud username and password for multiple phones?

    I have 6 iphones and wanted to use Apple Configurator to install the same apps on all 6 phones.  Some of the apps though, also require further installation by email.  Can I use the same iCloud username and password for all 6 phones to download the apps and also to configure email or do I need to create 6 different Apple IDs?

    If different people will be using these phones, you might be better off using the same Apple ID for the iTunes content...apps, music, etc. on each of these devices, but create different ID's for iCloud on each device. You can use one ID for the iTunes/App store, & a different ID for iCloud. That way, messages, notes, contacts, calendars, etc will be kept separate on each device.

  • How can we use Custom MessageBox in SelectionChangedEvent of LongListSelector for Windows Phone 8

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    but all that page is in stuckup i mean that page is not working and not doing any event.
    My C#.net Code
    private async void userPageLongListSelector_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
    if (e.AddedItems.Count > 0)
    if (userPageLongListSelector.SelectedItem == null)
    return;
    if (dbTenMin == null)
    dbTenMin = new Database(ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder, "tenMInDBSchema.db");
    await dbTenMin.OpenAsync();
    var res = (sender as LongListSelector).SelectedItem as _10Min._10MinClass.minUserPages;
    var resIndex = (sender as LongListSelector).ItemsSource.IndexOf(userPageLongListSelector.SelectedItem);
    string selectedPageName = res.userPages.ToString();
    string selectedPageDesignUser = res.pageDesignUser.ToString();

    But It is not working in Selection Changed Event in LongListSelector control in Windows Phone 8.
    Please help me,as soon as possible.
    Thanks & Regards,
    SrinivaaS.

    What happens if you leave the implementation for LeftButton empty as well , does the page gets stuck in that case also, if you press left button?
    i.e.
    CustomMessageBox messageBox = new CustomMessageBox()
    Caption = "Message...!",
    Message = "This form need offline datalist,Please load now.",
    LeftButtonContent = "Open",
    RightButtonContent = "No"
    messageBox.Dismissed += (s1, e1) =>
    switch (e1.Result)
    case CustomMessageBoxResult.LeftButton:
    break;
    case CustomMessageBoxResult.RightButton:
    break;
    case CustomMessageBoxResult.None:
    break;
    default:
    break;
    messageBox.Show();

  • Can I use my 2TB WD My Book Essential for the Time Machine feature on the MacBook as well as two other Windows computers (one running 7 and one with Vista)?

    Can I use my 2TB WD My Book Essential for the Time Machine feature on the MacBook as well as to store information from two other Windows computers (one running 7 and one with Vista)?

    Yes you can but you need to partition the drive into at least 2 separate drives.
    To do that you need to use a Windows PC to do the first partitioning. Say you split the drive into two partitions each 1TB (or close to 1TB) each.
    Partition fand format both partitions on a Win PC as one NTFS and the other FAT32.
    Then move it to the Mac and Reformat the FAT32 partition Mac Extended (Journaled) with a GUID Partition Table.
    I have that same drive and that is what I did originally with it. I now have it just for the Mac as I have other externals for the Win systems.
    Good Luck.

  • HT204023 Can I use the personal hotspot on my iphone 4 to gain internet access on my Nexus 7?  Do I need a tether cable?

    I have an iPhone 4 with ios 6 with hotspot capability.  Can I use this hotspot to gain internet access for my Nexus 7?  And if so, does it require a tether cable or can I access via bluetooth?  Was given the Nexus as a gift, would not have been my choice because of wi fi access capability restrictions.   I am very technically challenged.  Any help would be appreciated.

    clearly they are trying to create a hotspot from a wifi internet connection but don't want to use cellular.
    Perhaps it's the only device that can connect ( ie Hotel wifi)
    If the iPhone can connect to the wifi, the computer can connect to the wifi.
    Why use the iPhone to connect to wifi then connect the computer to the iPhone via wifi to get the computer onto hotel wifi?

  • Can we Use T Code MIRA instead of MIRO for posting incoming invoice?

    Hi All,
    Can we Use T Code MIRA instead of MIRO for posting incoming invoice?
    While trying to post a incoming invoice using MIRO, I am getting a error "HKONT is EMPTY". But when using MIRA i could get the invoice posted.
    And in which situations we use MIRA?
    Thanks in Advance
    Gopi Krishna

    Hello
    MIRA is for Invoice Verification in the Background
    Purpose
    This process is suitable for the following transactions:
    Posting invoices with mass amounts of data for which no item check is required
    Posting invoices referring to transactions not yet entered in the system
    Entering Invoices for Verification in the Background (Without Item List)
    When verifying invoices in the background, you enter only a small set of document header data, such as the invoice amount, the currency and the tax information. You also allocate the incoming invoice to a purchasing document or a vendor. The system saves the data and allocation criteria you enter.
    At a later point, the system verifies the invoice in the background. It uses the allocation criteria you entered to determine the item list. It then calculates the net total from the item list.
    If the net total = gross amount invoiced - tax amount (+/- tolerance), the system posts the invoice in the background.
    If the net total ¹ gross amount invoiced - tax amount (+/- tolerance), the system does not post the invoice in the background. It saves the document header data and the items determined in the background; the saved document then has to be processed manually in Invoice Verification.
    With Invoice Verification in the background, the system does not check for any quantity or price differences at item level. Since you do not enter any actual invoice item data, the system uses the default data for comparison.
    Regards
