Can I use one LR license on both a PC and Mac?

Do I have to buy two of the Lightroom product to be able to use it on my Windows computer at work and my MacBook Pro at home?

You can use the disks on both Windows and Mac unless you purchased a single platform download.

Use one iTunes Library for both my MacBook and Mac Mini

Hi,
I want to make a few changes in my configuration, but before something will go terribly wrong, I want to make sure I use the correct approach.
Yesterday I got a and on an older Mac Mini Model (G4 - only 40GB hard disc). It runs Leopard. It does not have Wifi, but it is connected to my modem/router.
I also have a MacBook. Currently I have my iTunes Library on an external HD (WD mypassport 320GB) that I hook up to my MacBook when playing music and syncing my iPhone and iPod.
However; I want to use the Mac Mini as a 'Mediacenter' (Big term, because it cannot play HD movies (processor is too old; I mean I want to use it for iTunes and as a DVD player). I have another external HD (Lacie - 500 GB; bigger than the one first mentioned, but this one is not a mobile device). I want to hook this HD to the Mac Mini and put my iTunes Library on this HD so it can be approached through the Mac Mini. Subsequently I want to approach the same library on my Mac Mini on my Macbook…This to control and manage the iTunes library and to keep syncing my iPhone through my Macbook (this is easier to do, because the Macbook has a Keyboard….)
Few questions;
1: is this even possible?
2: to transfer my library I will use this method http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751?viewlocale=en_US
First copy the library from the WD HD to the Lacie HD; then choose the library on the Lacie in iTunes on the Mac Mini
Then I will have my iTunes Library copied to the Lacie and connected to my Mac Mini.
Then for the second and 'harder part'. The Sharing of one Library over two Macs.
I think I can use the homesharing option. The above mentioned method transferred the whole current library and I can choose the option to automatically transfer new content from my MacBook to the Mini (correct?). But this leaves me with two libraries with the same content (one on the Mini (Lacie) and one on the Macbook (WD).
Is it possible to use only one library (the one on the Mini) and approach and manage it on my Macbook and also syncing my iPhone through my Macbook? I understand that it will loose some speed as the data will be transferred through Wifi from the Mac Mini to the MacBook. But as I will not listen to the music on my MacBook, but only will use it to manage the library, I can handle this….

I managed to transfer all music, movies and tv shows to the External HD (Lacie) and connected that one to the Mini. Then imported all files to the library on the mini. Quite easy!
The second part I left out. It seems the home sharing option works fine for now. I can still 'manage'the library on the mini from my Macbook with the 'share screen' option.

Can I use logic Pro 9 on both my laptop and my i Mac?

I have iMac 24 for use at home and just bought a mac book pro laptop. Can I use the same program on both computers? One for remote recording and one in my studio at home? Thanks!

If you are talking about the App Store version of Logic Pro 9...
You can actually install Logic on any number of Macs you own so long as you use the same Apple ID and Password to download them via the App Store. Just look under the Purchased tab to find the download button.

Can I use one external hard drive for 3 of my Macs?

I have a 2007 white MacBook, a 2011 MacBook Pro, and a 2013 MacBook Air.
I want to be able to transfer all of my precious family photos off of my MacBook and Macbook Pro onto an external hard drive and then wipe those computers clean, and then I want to be able to backup and wipe clean my Macbook Air so that I can update it to Mavericks.
Can I use one external hard drive to do this for three of my Macs? Will it be compatible with all of them? And will I still be able to use the hard drive with my Air once it is updated to Mavericks?
Which hard drive do you recommend?

1. Yes. Note that anything you want to keep should be on at least two drives in case one of them fails.
2. Yes.
3. Yes.

Can I use *one* iTunes library for both MacOS and Bootcamp/Vista?

Does anybody know if there is a way to use and administer the same library both from MacOS and Bootcamp/WinOS?
I have Paragon's "NTFS for MacOSX", so I could actually move the library to the NTFS partition and use it from both OSes.
The thing is, the changes made on one version won't appear on the other system.
Is there a way to make both iTunes clients read/write to the same files? Is the file format of the Mac-iTunes identical with the one used by the Win version?
And isn't that an interesting question...?
Thanks for replying and cheers,
uu

The music files are currently on the Mac partition of my MacBook. I plan to move them to the Bootcamp partition, so when using "NTFS for MacOS" I can both read and write there from either partition.
To facilitate administration (e.g. when I add music files using the Mac iTunes, the Windows iTunes doesn't realize the change) I wonder if I can somehow teach both iTuneses (the one on the Mac side and the other one on the Windoews side) to write to/read the same (XML??) admin files.
...which then will have to reside on the NTFS partition as well to be readable/writable from either partition.
Is there a way to change the default path for the library files?

Can I use one infosource to update data to CUBE and ODS???

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me if I can load data to OSD and Cube from one the same InfoSource? As I know, I have to have "0recordmode"(update mode) in communication structure for ODS not for Cube. So how can ODS and Cube use the same Infosucre to update data?
Thank you

John,
Depending on the volume of data and the type of infosource, sometime one update to ODS first and then subsequently update to the Cube or update both cube and ODS in parallel.
For example, if you use AR or AP line item datasources, since you are extracting from both open line and closed line items tables, there could be multiple records for the same thing coming through. First when it appears as an open line item, and when it is paid, it appears again as a paid line item so if you update directly to the cube, you can have multiples of the real value. Thus in this instance you update from infosource to ODS then subsequently use delta update from ODS to cube. CCA and C0-PA on delta mode are example where there are no overlapping, thus you can update both ODS and Cube at the same time.
Hope this helps,
Mary

Can you use one iMac with two iphones for updates and itunes? It erased my husband's apps on his phone when I tried to sync.

I am sure there is a way to sync both my iphone and my husband's iphone on our one iMac...when I connected my husband's for the first time it recognized it as a different phone, but would let me save his apps to itunes like it saved mine earlier... can we have both of our iphone's info on our one itunes account?

When you connected his iphone did you click File>Transfer Purchases?
This would transfer any ituens purchases from iphone to computer.
You can sync as many iphones as you like to one computer/account/library.

HT204380 Can I use same apple ID on both my ipad2s and do FaceTime

I have 2 iPads and same iTunes ID. Can I login in with this but use 2 different emails to do FaceTime? E.g I have [email protected] as ID on both iPad 2s. But my kid is in school and want to FaceTime with me. Can he use his email ID and connect to my email I'd and do FaceTime?

Hi,
Yes you can definitely use the same Apple ID regardless of how many apple devices you have. This way you can install the apps that you have already purchased.
It really does not matter what name your iPad is. You usually rename them under Settings>General>About>Name>
Just a note if you use the same icloud apple id as well, both devices will recieve the imessages and facetime calls.
Hope that helps!

Can i use an airport express as both a bridge and for airtunes?

I have an Airport Extreme Base Station (5th gen) and an Airport Express. The Airport Express is currently set up only for Airtunes. I would like to use it to extend my existing wifi signal to the backyard. Do I have to use the Airport Express EITHER for Airtunes OR as a bridge, or can I do both simultaneously?

The AirPort Express can be configured for the following uses simultaneously: extend a wireless network, AirTunes, and printing. Here I am assuming that you will be using a wireless connection between the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express.
Hopefully, your AirPort Express is the newer "n" wireless version, because this will provide the best network performance, and it is also easy to configure as well.
As to whether you will have adequate signal strength in the back yard, that is difficult to predict in advance. A lot will depend on the distance that the Express is located from the AirPort Extreme, how many walls and obstructions are in the signal path, and how much of the backyard area that you intend to cover.

*can i use the ipod as a hard drive to transfer files to macbook??*
Macs can read Windows formatting so if your iPod was first used and formatted on a PC you should have no issue with using it as a removable hard drive on the Mac: How to determine your iPod's disk format
Just for reference, iPods formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Mac formatted iPods can only be used on a PC that has a third party helper program such as XPlay or MacDrive installed.

If I use an SD card for both Windows 7 and Mac, is there any way to see the documents from the Mac sight while on the windows side?

If I use an SD Card on both the windows 7 and Mac OS (using bootcamp), is there any way to see the data seen on the Mac OS side while using the Windows OS?

Windows Aero style uses a different background image than Mac:
Windows Aero:
#nav-bar {
background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(253,253,253,0.45), rgba(255,255,255,0));
Mac:
#nav-bar {
background: url(chrome://browser/skin/Toolbar-background-noise.png),
linear-gradient(hsl(0,0%,93%), hsl(0,0%,83%));
I can't test hands on, but you might be able to clear that OSX "fog" using a rule such as:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
#nav-bar, #PersonalToolbar {
background-image: none !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
This could be applied using the Stylish extension or by creating/editing a userChrome.css file.

Can I use one CC subscription on both my PC desktop and Mac notebook?

Adobe has long permitted a single purchase of products like CS6 to be installed on two machines (PC desktop plus PC notebook) for use by the same user at different times.
1. Is that still permitted with a CC subscription?
2. What if the desktop is a PC but the PC notebook gets replaced with a Mac? Will the user with one subscription be able to install and use CC on both machines?
