Getting digital copy on more than one computer

My son got a DVD for Christmas with a digital copy. He put it on his computer using itunes. Can I also download the movie to my computer using itunes since it is an authorized computer on the account? I don't want to try to download it and end up paying for it again.

The problem is he has a Mac and I have a PC. How can I copy it? It's copy protected so I don't think he can burn a new DVD from it.

    How can i get my music on my labtop

    If all of those items were purchased from the iTunes Store, and all those purchased items are currently on the iPod, it is easy. Connect the iPod to your new laptop. If iTunes asks if you want to sync it to the iTunes library on your new laptop, say no or cancel to this offer. You want iTunes to start without syncing. The iPod should appear in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.
    Select the iPod in the sidebar. Go up to the menu bar, under File, and select +Transfer Purchased from <name of iPod>+.
    If there are songs (or other media files) that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, and you don't want to re-rip then from CDs or other original source, you will have to transfer the files from where they are stored now and copy them to your new laptop. Please post back if this is the case.

    Copy the songs to a computer that is running iTunes, add those new tracks to the current library, and then synch those tracts to the iPod.

  • I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I use more than one computer to access my four business email accounts. When one computer is on (and mail is open) emails do not get through to the other computers. This is fine, but how do I make one of the other computers the dominant one?

    I assume these are POP accounts and all computers are set to remove from Server after downloading.
    So on the non dominant ones... Mail Preferences>Accounts, highlight an account, Advanced tab, uncheck remove from Server, just have the main dominant one remove from server.
    Or get/setup IMAP accounts.

  • Can't get internet on more than one computer!

    Hi--
    We recently changed internet providers, and now only one of our computers seems to be able to use the internet at a time. All of them show a full signal from the airport in the toolbar, and there does not seem to be any problem with the airport itself. So even though nothing seems to be wrong, we can't get more than one computer on the internet, a problem that never occurred before we switched our provider.
    I need to fix this, but am not sure where to begin, because I can't determine what the problem is. I'd appreciate any sort of clue as to where to begin.
    Thanks.

    JerryMc, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Is the AirPort Express (AX) the only router you have? If so, you need to make sure that it is configured to "share a single IP address".

  • How can i get apple tv2 to recognize more than one computer in my house

    how can i get apple tv2 to recognize more than one computer in my house, I just got it and can only find one of two computers in my home

    Same here. I have 1 ATV2 and 2 computers and each has separate iTunes accounts (mine and my wife's). The ATV menu says "computers" so I presume you can have more than 1 computer on 1 ATV. The big question is how do you set it up?

  • Can not get more than one computer to access internet

    using airport and can not get more than one computer to access internet wirelessly... currently airport is in bridge mode and internet sharing is set to "off" in network preferences...
    help - what should the settings be in airport and network preferences?

    are using internet connection as dhcp?
    Yes.
    bridge mode seems to only work with pppoe connection to internet which is what my set up is
    But you've never said why you're using bridge mode (I'm not), which -- as I've explained before -- is probably the reason you can connect only 1 client at a time.
    If you'll setup the AX as a regular, main base station, connect using DHCP, and share IP addresses, you should be fine.

  • FINAL CUT WON'T ON ON MORE THAN ONE COMPUTER ON A NETWORK

    I have a Mac Pro, a MacBook Pro, and a Powermac G5 all connected via airport. I am using all three computers to do video editing using Final Cut Studio, but if I try to open Final Cut on more than one computer at a time, I get an error message syaing that there is already an application running on this network with the same serial number. If I disconnect the computer already running Final Cut from the network, then the other computer will open it, but I need them all connected because I am sharing different photo/music/media files between all three computers. I Paid for Final Cut Studio, and I don't see why I can't use it on more than one computer at a time. Is there a way around this without disconnecting them from the network?

    I Paid for Final Cut Studio, and I don't see why I can't use it on more than one computer at a time.
    Actually you licensed Final Cut Studio and agreed to the license agreement when you installed those programs.
    As it states:
    "2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions.
    A. Apple Software
    This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on one Apple-labeled desktop computer and one Apple-labeled laptop
    computer so long as both computers are owned and used by you."

  • Can I have my Adobe X Pro on more than one computer?

    Can I have my Adobe X Pro on more than one computer?

    Well, yes, but I think there's an important point to make; I'm surprised you talk about "downloading it again". That suggests you didn't make an archive copy of the installer you downloaded for the first computer.
    It is VITAL to archive a copy of what you download for software you buy. That doesn't mean just leave the download on disk, because you will need it if that disk fails or computer is dropped on the floor. We constantly see people that didn't get a copy of their old software, and now it is no longer available for download, leaving them just stuck!
    So, please, save a copy on CD or DVD. Also, write the serial number on the disk, and any qualifying number if it was an upgrade. I'd hate you to be another statistic in the "how do I reinstall my old software" threads.

  • Can I install photoshop cs5 on more than one computer, if "owned" by a different user?

    I want to install my recently purchased photoshop cs5 on my macbook, as well as my imac. The only thing I worry about is that the macbook is in my name and the imac is technically in my dad's name, even though he only uses it to surf the web. The only reason he even bought the imac as opposed to anything else is so that I'd have a great place to edit photos. I really need it to be on both, will this work? Anyone have experience with this?

    This is what I was able to dig out
    May I use the software on more than one computer at a time?
    The activation process supports installation on two machines. The Adobe product license agreement allows the primary user to install the product on a primary computer and also on a home or laptop computer for his or her use, provided that the two copies are not used simultaneously. While the activation process supports installing and activating Adobe software on two machines, the usage of the product on the second computer is restricted to the user who licensed the software. Allowing others to use a second copy of the software violates the product license agreement.

  • Can't use the iPod on more than one computer!!!!!!!

    Ok, This has got me so frustrated! We got an iPod and installed iTunes. We thought we had it figured out - we purchased music from iTunes, played it on the iPod and everything was great. Then plugged the iPod into my other computer to listen to our music and it won't freakin' play! says the computer is "Not Authorized" and suggests that by 'authorizing' the 2nd computer, it will overwrite the songs that are already on the iPod. This is NOT desirable. We've downloaded and installed iTunes onto the 2nd computer and used the same login account that we used on the first computer.
    What gives!?!?! I thought this was supposed to be easy, but it's not! I was hoping for a quick and simple "plug it in and start listening to music." This is definately not quick and simple. Albeit, I'm new to this iPod craze, but this shouldn't be so difficult. I've poked around on the website and cannot seem to find an answer to this.
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks
    oh btw, Is anyone else getting annoyed by Apple's rediculous attempt at monopolizing this market by forcing us to use thier own proprietary software?!?!

    First of all, any computer that plays purchased content must be authorized. This can be accomplished by opening iTunes, then store>authorize computer. If you wish to use your iPod on more than one computer & not have your iPod content erased, you will have to have your iPod preferences set on "manually manage". See the following link.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61675
    Also, it's not only Apple that uses proprietary software. How about Zune players, & several others?

  • Playing a track on more than one computer

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know if it's possible to play an iTunes track on more than one computer (i.e., running iTunes) at a time? I have my main iTunes library downstairs, connected to an AirPort Express which is connected to my home surround system. While I'm playing a list through this setup, does anyone know if I can get another computer (Mac with iTunes 7.3)in my house to also be playing the tune at the same time (giving me the same music both upstairs and downstairs). I know I can play the track via a shared iTunes library (doing that now), but I want to have the track in synch as people move through the house. Any thoughts?
    Cheers,

  • How can I synchronize safely from more than one computer?

    First, I have set up my iPod to work with two computers: my primary computer, which is my desktop at home. Later, I also "authorized" my laptop (as a secondary source) to also be able sync to my iPod.
    My question is that when I go to synchronize some podcasts I just downloaded to my secondary computer (my laptop), I get the following prompt: "Are you sure you want to sync podcasts? All existing podcsts on the iPod '<my iPod's name>' will be replaced with podcasts from your iTunes library."
    From this message, since my iPod is plugged into my laptop, I assume it's referring to my iTunes library on my laptop (which only has the few podcasts I just downloaded). And it sounds like it's going to delete the podcasts that are already on my iPod.
    I definitely don't want it to "replace" the ones I already have sync'd from my home computer; +_I just want to add the ones I have downloaded to my laptop._+ How can I make it so I can safely add the new ones without disturbing those I already have sync'd and want to keep? I'm a bit confused about how syncing works when you have more than one computer to sync to the iPod.

    You cannot do what you want.
    The ipod touch can sync with ONE computer/library at a time.
    When you sync to a different computer/library, the ipod touch will first delete the current itunes content form the iphone, then it will sync the content from the new computer.
    This is the way it is designed.
