Have a new mac air and set up iTunes to home share library. library is empty on new computer?? How can i view the library on both computers??

Have set up homesharing but am still unable to see library on secondary computer?? what am I doing wrong?

The files that weren't inside the media folder on the original machine need to be copied over to exactly the same paths as they had on the source machine. See this thread for an ongoing discussion of a similar problem. See also this post on migrating the iTunes library.

  • I have a lot of bookmarks, and I want to search them, similar to a file search on my computer; how can I do that? Please say it can be done.

    I need to be able to search my Firefox bookmarks. For example, I know I have a bookmark with wot in the name of it, but for the very life of me I cannot find it amongst all the bookmarks I have. There must be around a thousand (not exaggerating). I have no idea at all where I have saved it, and I know it's there, but I cannot find it.
    So how do I search my bookmarks similar to like I would search my computer for files?
    If FF doesn't have this capability, could you PRETTY PLEASE consider adding this functionality?

    Firefox does allow bookmark searching. From the 'Bookmarks' menu select 'Show all Bookmarks' (Ctrl + Shift + B). A new window will open showing the Bookmarks library. At the top right corner is a search box.
    Also, by default, when you start typing an address into the location/address bar at the top, Firefox suggests links from history & bookmarks. So you should be able to find it just there too. Click [[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar|here]] to know more.

  • I transferred settings and files from old MacBook air to new one.  New one now gives popup about failing to connect to server (old iMac).  the new Mac air and old iMac have never met and are 2000 miles apart. How do I stop the popups?

    Change your settings in Sharing preferences, for one, and remove the server out of the Finder's sidebar. Obviously, this is the result of transfering all your other computer's preferences to your new computer.

  • New Mac Air and HP monitor.  The monitor only displays the background.  How Can I get both to display the same thing?

    I have a new Mac Air and want to use my HP Monitor HPLP2475w to save $$.  I attached it to the Mac Air but all I get is the background of my laptop.  How do I get this to match or use in the dual mode.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jackie,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  How did you attach the Macbook Air to your HP Monitor?  What cable did you use?  The article below will explain how to setup the display.  Video Mirroring is the option that will allow you to see your computer's display on your HP.

    You can easily view the contents of your Mac on a display, like an Apple Thunderbolt Display, or on your TV.
    Connect an Apple Thunderbolt Display: 
    Plug the display’s cable directly into the Thunderbolt port  on your Mac. 
    Connect an Apple LED Cinema Display: 
    Plug the display’s cable directly into the Thunderbolt port  on your Mac. 
    Connect a TV or display with an HDMI connector: 
    Plug the cable directly into the HDMI port on your Mac. For more information about using a TV, see Use your TV as a display.

    i recently got new mac air and transferred my old version garageband projects now when I open them in 10.0.2 I can add new tracks but then nothing can record, shows its receiving sound from software inst. but no sound. I checked audio preferences and they are set as they should be. I tried it in all the other older projects and same issue anyone have any experience like this very frustrating.  Can one download old version still ? or can you run both versions on OS10.9.5 ?

    Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
    Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
    When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
    Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
    Two questions, every idea would be great!
    - Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
    - Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
    Thank you again,

  • I have the computer with my itunes library on it but no longer have access to the email account the library was set up with. How can I transfer the library to a new appleid/email?

    I have the computer that holds my itunes library. However, I no longer have access to the email account (and therefore apple account) it was set up with so can't sync/update etc. How can I transfer the library to my new apple id? Any help gratefully received as searched the internet but can't find the answer!
    Have ipod touch 4th gen, ipod touch 5th gen and ipod nano 7th gen all to sync to library.

    Hi Stillme,
    You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another. You need to go into the old Apple ID and change it to the new email address instead of using a new Apple ID altogether.
    Apple - My Apple ID
    If you can't remember the password to the old ID, then click on Reset your Password, and answer the Security Questions. If you can't remember the Security Questions, contact iTunes Support and have them reset:
    APPLE ID SECURITY CONTACT NUMBERS
    Once you get into your old account, Edit the Apple ID to your new email address. Before you will be able to do that you are going to have to change the email address on the new Apple ID to something else.
    Cheers,

  • We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?

    We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?

    There is no "adding" a device.  Simply plug the iDevice into the computer.  iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
    iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit.

  • How can i view the items i copied in my time capsule and back it to my mac.

    Hi everybody, sorry for my bad english, i´m from Mexico City, i bought the time capsule only for used it like a backup, i made all the steps through time machine and all seems very well, but i don't know how can i view the items i copied and back it to my mac.
    Please Help Me.

    I assumed that you are using Time Machine to make backups to your new Time Capsule (TC) ... correct? If so, then you would normally use the Time Machine interface to locate files that have been already backed up.
    For example, let's say that you had a document in your \Documents folder. For some reason you deleted this file, and then, decided that you still needed it. The "normal" process to retrieve it would be to open the \Documents folder in a Finder window on your Desktop ... then open the Time Machine interface. Once opened, you will be presented with not only that folder, but as many versions of that folder as the number of times Time Machine backed it up. Using the forward/backwards (in time) arrows, you would move to a folder that has the recently deleted file. From there you can easily retrieve the file.
    For more information on how to use Time Machine, either use the built-in help or check out this Apple Support article.

    verify tthe issue is with the headset by trying them out in another device which use the std. 3.5mm minijack all computer does and mp3players and you name it
    if it's the headset then it's under the same warrenty rules as anything else and will be replaced in the same way you would an iphone or ipad
