Combining iWeb libraries

I have been working on two separate machines on two separate website. I know that the content of my machine 1, iWeb is saved as Domain.Sites2, but the website saved on machine 2 is also saved as Domain.Sites2. I want to get both separate websites onto one machine. How do I combine the two individual Domain.Sites2 files onto a single machine? Thanks

Rename each domain file to reflect what's inside. Then double-click the one you want to work on.
Or manage your iWeb domain files with [iWebSites|http://mistergregg.com/cocoadrillosoftware/iWebSites>.

Husband and Wife trying to combine music libraries and share between all Apple technologies in the house.

My husband and I both have apple ids which we use to purchase music, movies etc... We want to combine our libraries and pull from the same. We've been doing this manually - but wonder if we can use the Cloud to support 2 apple ids or if we have to create a 3rd apple id / email and somehow transfer our individual music to the 3rd apple id / email. Creating the 3rd email / apple id will be a pain since we will never use this as an email. We need Help figuring out the best approach.

You can't combine two Apple IDs... I have the same problem I have an iCloud mail account and an Apple ID i use to purchase music with and I'd love a way to combine them. Apple has said in the past their looking into a possible way of doing this but I'm doubtful they will... :/
However, sounds like iTunes Match will probably be the right solution for you http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

if you want all content on your external, go iTunes > preferences > advanced and point +*iTunes media folder location+* there.

when done, you can delete the media files from your internal drive.

Combining Multiple Libraries

I couldn't find in the forums a mention of combining multiple libraries.
I have two Libraries, A & B.
Library A: 260GB
Library B: 100GB
I'd like to combine theses libraries together, while preserving Folder/Project structure... So exporting projects from say Library B to desktop and dropping them in Library A project panel won't work.
Any help is appreciated! Working on Mac Pro 2.8x8 10.5.8 RAID 0

No, this method doesn't maintain folder structure. If you have Folders & Subfolders in which the projects are contained in, you will remove organization, and have tons of projects disassociated.

How do i combine 2 libraries from 2 ipods onto 1 computer?

How do I combine the libraries of 2 ipods that were on 2 computers onto the same computer? I have one of them on an external harddrive but I am afraid that if I plug it into the desktop computer it will make me choose which one I want! I want to combine them. Please help

Can you create a BI publisher report with two data models that have the Answers Request as a data source and then generate the xml and use the concatenated data set for the BI publisher report? or are there issues that prevent you from doing so?
I believe in your scenario, it is not possible to have a combined Answers request..

Will iTunes 10 & iTunes 11 work together? If not, how do I combine 2 libraries with the same account?

My 2005 iMac (which can't be updated to Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion and so is stuck with iTunes 10) has thousands of my songs, over 80GB of music mostly from CDs and other uploads/downloads. In 2008 we got an iMac for the family room; somehow although we have the same iTunes account for that computer, we started fresh with no tracks, and built up its own library for family use. Now we've bought two iPhones which aren't recognized by the '08 iTunes/Mac OS, so I want to upgrade the '08 iMac (the only one I can) and I have the Snow Leopard software to do so.
But I'm concerned that once the two computers have different versions of iTunes, I will lose the ability to home-share the music library from the '05 iMac on the '08 iMac, and because of that I won't be able to store any of my older Mac's tracks on the iCloud or access them on my iPhone. (Of course I don't want to have to pay for 80GB+ on the cloud!)
Has anyone got two versions of iTunes on two computers with the same account and are you able to home-share together and access tracks on your iPhones from an older version?
What do Apple users recommend? I'm thinking my best bet might be to combine the two libraries, which as I said are on the same account, but I don't know how to go about doing this. How much time would it take with 80GB? (I could probably do without 15% or 20% of those tracks, but it's still a lot, I don't know if it's instantaneous or if it uploads each track one at a time, I can imagine that taking two days.)
The older Mac's tracks, the 80GB, are the ones I really want, it took years to collect and upload all that, finding photos for some of the more esoteric albums/songs, etc. The newer Mac only has 2.5GB in its iTunes and I guess it wouldn't be the worst thing if I had to reload those, if the 80GB library had to wipe out the 2.5GB one.
Thanks so much to anyone who can help me! If I can start this tonight and have it run overnight (if necessary) that'd be great, otherwise I'm hoping I can get this done Sunday. By the way, technologically, I have the '05 iMac hooked up to a 1st Gen Time Capsule and the '08 iMac getting WiFi from that.

Thank you for replying. Both of the accounts are Admin accounts. The Libraries are kept in the user/music/itunes/itunes media folder on each account. However, I do use multiple iTunes Libraries on my Account1. One of the Libraries I use in Account1 is on a separate internal HD. However, the other Libraries I use in Account1 are stored in user/music/itunes/itunes media folder on the main HD (which hosts both Account1 and Account2). It doesn't seem to matter whether I am using an iTunes Library on an external drive or the main drive in Account1, I still get the same problem: only account1 library will load. AppleTV sees that the Account2 Library is there, but it won't load it.

Can i combine aperture libraries?

i have aperture running on three different machines and i wondered if there is a way to "combine" the three aperture libraries into a new library. how do folks use aperture with a desktop and a laptop for syncing work from the feild?

Well the unit of export is a project - most people moving between laptop and desktop migrate projects between the two.
You can combine libraries. the easiest way I would say would be to go into finder and right-click on each Aperture library to say "Show Package Contents". Then copy projects out of two of the libraries into the third. Copy only folders and .approject files, but do NOT copy the folders Aperture.aplib and "Built-in Smart Albums".
Then when you restart Aperture is will see the projects copying into the main one, and import them all. Of course I think it goes without saying that you'll want to back up that library before you start copying other things inside of it... this process should be faster than exporting and importing projects though, and is OK for the larger task of combining this library. Also I would say that either all librarys should have been converted by 1.5 or none of them, don't do it if the libraries are a mix of versions.

Combining Aperture Libraries

I am running Aperture 3.0 on a macbook with about 1,000 images in it and have another library (about 5,000 pics) on an external hard drive. Can someone advise on the best way to import the images from the external hard drive into Aperture on my macbook while making sure that I don't overwrite the existing images. Thanks.

This is easy to do in Aperture 3. Just use "File→Import→Library" while in the destination Library and select the source Library from the dialog. If your Images all have Managed Masters, copy the Masters into your Library. You will end up with two Libraries: the new combined Library, and your older "source" Library. Confirm that everything is in the new combined Library, and then -- if you'd like -- delete the old Library on your external drive.
As with anything you do on a computer, you should always have a backup before proceeding.

How Do I Combine iTunes Libraries? - I just need the content (not playlists, etc.)

I have two very large iTunes libraries that I'd like to combine into one.
To complicate the issue, the "old" library is larger because I had more space on an external drive at the time. The "new" library (the one I want to add to) is essentially a subset of the old library and I'd like to keep it as my main library.
So, how can I bring over the music from my "old" library into my "new" library?
And, is it possible to prevent it from creating duplicate songs?
To help explain the issue further, I have about 29,000 songs in my "main" library. I have about 40,000 songs (including those 29,000 songs) in my "old" library. How can I get those 11,000 songs into my "main" library.
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ALL THE HELP!!

Quick question: Will this result in creating duplicates?
Probably not. If the song is already in iTunes, it shouldn't add them again (but never say never).
If it doesn't add them again, it'll put them in a folder named Not added to iTunes (or something like this) in the Automatically add to iTunes folder. Does this with anythoing you put in there that is not added to iTunes.
You can try with a few dozen songs (that are already in iTunes) and see what happens.
Does't matter if iTunes is open or closed but nothing will happen with the songs inAutomatically add to iTunes folder until you open iTunes.

Combining iTunes Libraries from laptop and desktop--duplicates?

I have been through an iTunes search, but can't seem to find an answer to this question. I want to combine all of the music on my laptop, with my mac-mini iTunes music file (on an external drive). I know I can hook the two together and do an "add to library," but I am running 30 gigs or so on the laptop, and more than 70 on the main computer. Will doing this add two copies of duplicates (which would create a "clean-up" nightmare), or will iTunes recognize and skip the duplicates? There is simply too much time involved not to know in advance. Any help appreciated.
Also, I wrote a year or so ago that I have ITunes start up immediately every tme I reboot and want to know how to turn it off. Other folks said they had the same problem, but no solution was ever offered. Anything new on this?
Thanks--

I found your post because im doing the exact same thing..sort of. I had a mac pro that was ahem taken from me about a year ago. Since then ive been using my macbook laptop for my itunes and my iphone syncing. Now that I have my Mac Pro back, im in the process of merging both to my mac pro and using the mac pro as my "primary" itunes library.
Here is my solution..
1) Make sure both versions of itunes are the same on each computer! Start Itunes, click Itunes>Check for Updates.
2) In Itunes, click File>Display duplicates. Clean up anything that needs it.
3) In Itunes, click File>Library>Organize Library then check the box that says "Upgrade to Itunes media organization." If you have already done this previously, you will only see a grayed out box and a message stating that your media is already organized as a itunes media folder. DO NOT CHECK THE BOX THAT SAYS CONSOLIDATE FILES.
(step 4 is optional, I've been using Itunes for many years and it seems every version they change their folder structure (eg, Audiobooks is now books, etc. also, in the past, the folder was Itunes Music, now with version 9 its Itunes Media) I decided I would start clean with the latest Itunes 9 folder structure so I did exactly that!)
4) In Itunes, click Itunes>Preferences>Advanced. Under Itunes Media Folder Location, change to your new path. for example, mine originally said /users/Geoff/Music/Itunes/Itunes Music. I created a new folder called Itunes Media in the Itunes folder so now mine says: /users/Geoff/Music/Itunes/Itunes Media. Like I mentioned before , the main advantage to this is to have the latest folder structure in itunes 9 and not have a bunch of old folders from previous itunes versions.
5) In Itunes do a File>Library>Organize Library then click the checkbox next to "Consolidate Files". When you hit ok what this does is copies all your music, etc to your new folder that you made in step 4. If you didnt make a new folder in step 4, it will simply just reorganize to the latest itunes 9 folder structure and leave the older itunes folders on your computer. (Im a neat freak so thats why I went with step 4 and made a whole new folder for my Itunes Music) If you did create a new folder called Itunes Media (or whatever you chose to call it) make sure you DELETE the old folder (itunes music or whatever you had originally) or you will have 2 folders with the same things in them, wasting alot of hard drive space.
6) Now you have to make a decision which library you would like to keep. yes, we will be merging, but we need to use ONE of the libraries in itunes. In my case, 75% of my stuff was on my laptop, so I decided to keep its library and use it on my Mac Pro (also, my Iphone is synced to my laptop as well so that was another reason I used that one. If one of the itunes libraries your merging is also used to sync your iphone I recommend using that library. ((just how I did it, YMMV)) For simplicity, lets call the library your going to KEEP the source, and the other copy the destination. Once you have decided which library is going to be the source, create a folder on the OTHER computer's desktop (the destination) and call it "itunes backup".
7) Start up Itunes one last time on the Destination computer and export any playlists you want with the new library. To do this, click the playlist, then File>Library>Export Playlist. When you export, it will ask you what format you would like. I just picked Plain Text. I exported my playlists to my desktop, but you can export them wherever you like.
Also, you need to check the movies, tv shows, podcasts, books and ringtones on each computer and write down a list of things you will need to merge from the destination computer to the new library. (eg, i had a few audiobooks on my destination machine that I didnt have on my laptop. I also had a few tv shows and podcasts on my destination machine I didnt have on my laptop. Since i will be using the library from my laptop on the destination machine, I wrote them down so that I could import them later and not worry about duplicates. (If you dont care about duplicates then I guess you dont need to write anything down and you can sort the dupes later in itunes when your done.)
8) on the destination computer (the one we created the folder on the desktop in the previous step), make sure itunes is NOT running, then open finder and go to the music folder, and then go to the folder Itunes. In this folder you will see a file called iTunes Library. Drag it to the folder you created on the desktop called Itunes backup. Next you will see a file called iTunes Music Library.xml
Drag this file as well to the folder on the desktop called iTunes Backup.
9) Now while still looking in the iTunes folder, you will see either a folder called iTunes Music or a folder called iTunes Media. (depending if you did step 4 or not above). Whichever folder you have, drag it as well to the folder on the desktop called iTunes Backup.
10) now, on the SOURCE machine (the one your going to use the iTunes library from) open finder and go to the Music folder, and then to the iTunes folder. Copy the iTunes folder and everything in it to the destination computer. In my case, since both my computers are on a network, I just copied it to the public folder on the destination computer. You can do this, or use a external harddrive, etc. Just make sure when you copy it to the destination computer, you DONT copy it to the Music folder.
11) After the copy is done, You should now go to the destination computer and go to the iTunes folder you just copied from the Source computer. We now need to copy 2 things (one file and one folder). Inside the iTunes folder drag the file "iTunes Library" to the /music/iTunes folder on the destination machine.
12) Lastly, now drag the folder "iTunes Media" (or iTunes Music) to the /music/iTunes folder on the destination computer.
13) start up itunes and go to iTunes>Preferences>Advanced and make sure the proper path is displayed in the iTunes Folder Media Location (it should be the path we copied the 2 files to, (eg, /music/iTunes.)
At this point, you should have a working copy of iTunes from your SOURCE machine running on the destination machine. next we need to merge the last few things to finish.
14) In iTunes, click File>Add to Library and browse to the folder on your desktop called "iTunes Backup". Inside the iTunes Music folder (or iTunes Media folder) click the music folder and then click choose to import the music.
15) next, if needed, in Itunes, click File>Add to Library and pick any Movies, Tv Shows, Books, etc that you didnt have and import them into your itunes library. If everything was the same on both machines, you dont have to do anything and you can skip this step. But if your like me, and had some things in your destination iTunes library you didnt have in your source, you will need to import them. This is where the list in step 7 comes in handy.
16) lastly, in iTunes, click File>Library>Import Playlist and import any playlists you exported in step 7
17) re download your album art and then the last thing you have to do is delete your music dupes and then your finished. To see a list of dupes, in iTunes, click File>Display Duplicates. You can either manually delete the duplicates (make sure you pick KEEP FILES when it asks if you would like to keep the file or delete it from the hard drive.) or use a 3rd party program like tidy songs or something.
Hope this tutorial was helpful, I spent way too long making it..lol..
And the answer to your second question... to stop auto start of itunes. Try clicking the apple logo in the top left corner, then click System Preferences, then click Accounts, then you will see a "Login Items" tab that shows whats starting up at login. Hope this helps.
If you have any questions or comments let me know, ill follow this thread for awhile to help if you need it.

Possible to combine photo libraries?

Presumably as a result of setting up my iMac and using it before running Migration Asst. to transfer files from an old G4, I ended up with two photo libraries. I intend to erase my hard drive for other reasons. I believe I have all data folders copied onto an external hard drive and the photo libraries are separately copied. I also have Time Machine back-ups on a separate EHD but don't want to use that since I intend to start clean.
Is it possible to combine the photo libraries by carrying them in from the EHD to the "clean" hard drive? If so, what steps should be followed?
My apologies if this has been addressed before and I just didn't find the answer. A link to the answer would be welcome if it has been addressed.
Thanks for any assistance.
Steve

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
You can merge iPhoto Libraries using the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager. It's the only way to do this.

Combining iTunes libraries from two users. Will this work...

My wife and I have use separate Macs in the past but have lately decided to combine into one iMac and keep our Macbook as a computer either can use. We use the same iTunes account, but she has her purchases, I have mine and we have the stuff we both like. I want to consolidate the two folders into one to get back the space from files that are duplicated. It seems like I could do the following:
1. Import the music from my wife's iTunes library to mine.
2. Delete the files that are duplicates in iTunes (i.e. "check for duplicates" then delete the ones with today's date.
3. Remove (not delete) any imported files with today's date.
At this point, I should have a folder with every song we have, but only the ones I want showing up in my library
4. Open my wife's account account and point her iTunes to the new folder.
Presumably, all the files will be in the same general path location, so her iTunes shouldn't care about whether they were actually the files I had on the iMac or she had on the Macbook (as long as they have the right name and the right location).
Would this then allow us both to maintain our own libraries, but work out of one folder, saving space?
PS It goes without saying that the folder permissions would be set such that we could both Read & Write.

Hi LaVonne;
Yes it will work. I just did the same thing moving my music from my PowerMac Quad to mt brand new MacBook Pro.

Combining iTunes libraries from separate iPads or PCs

My wife and I both use iPads almost exclusively and only keep our old Windows PCs to basically house our iTunes libraries and a large no. of photos. Can I combine both iTunes libraries onto a Macbook Pro either from our iPads or our old PCs? And if so how?

Hello Chet Black1,
Thank you for the question. The article below outlines several methods to transfer your music from your previous computer to your new computer.
Home Sharing is the easiest way to transfer your music from one computer to another, but I recommend reviewing the options available in the table to decide which method would work best for you:
The following table compares the methods to move music from your old computer to your new computer.
Method
Considerations
Home Sharing
The easiest option, as long as your new computer is already connected to the Internet.
External drive
Requires additional hardware but backs up your iTunes library.
Transferring purchases
Fastest, but only moves the content you purchased from the iTunes Store. Also requires an iPhone, iPad, or iPod with the content on it.
Windows Migration Assistant
Works best for migrating from an old PC to a new Mac, and transfers more than iTunes.
You can find the steps for each of these methods in the article:

I want to combine several libraries on several drives into one library, Can this be done?*

I have several itunes libraries and playlists on several drives and directories. Is there an easy way to combine all these files into one library with one play list? Currently it takes up alot of space and I do not have all the media available readily useable.

Interesting. If it claims to do it, then it should; I didn't think it did. Importantly, Acrobat doesn't know how to read INDD files, except that it knows how to run InDesign to make a conversion. If there is any trouble running InDesign on that machine, it will affect it.
Still, I'd recommend exporting. With InDesign documents the export settings used are critical, and you'd want to control them rather than have some default.
