Home Sharing- back and forth
Hello. I am attempting to utilize the home sharing functionality in iTunes. Here are some details:
2 different computers on Windows operating systems
2 different Apple IDs
both computers connected via same wifi network
If there is Computer A and Computer B, I was able to share Computer A's iTunes library via home share with Computer B. However, I am struggling to share Computer B's iTunes library with Computer A. When Computer B's iTunes is open, I see CompuCom A's library listed under Shared. However, when CompuCom A's iTunes is open, I only see Shared and nothing listed underneath. I've authorized both computers with both Apple IDs. I'm not sure what other information I should provide. Any assistance that can be provided would be greatly appreciated since I am stumped.
Hi,
Itunes match is one solution. You must use the same apple ID on all computers.
Start match on one computer and once match has completed its process, add match to the second computer. Match will scan for music in that computers itunes library and once complete you will see all the music in cloud from first computer - this will be available to download on second computer.
When you go back to the first computer, you will now have second computers music avalable for download. Continue process on other computers.
Alternatively to could use home sharing to move music from one computer to another by using "Not on this Computer Option" when viewing shared libraries.

Transferring back-and-forth from home and work
I need to transfer my Mail and Address book back-and-forth from home to work.
1. Which files do I export from home?
2. Where is it imported into work?
3. Are there any known issues with the database files becoming corrupt from going back-and-forth like this?
Thanks.what os are both macs running on?
i would suggest you look at www.mac.com, the .mac service, if you want to sync various data between two macs - works with tiger and leopard os, but not panther.
manually moving folders may be cumbersome and end up with unintended consequences, as in human error or other glitches.
nonethless the folders that contain data for both mail and ab are respectively homefolder/library/mail and homefolder/library/mail downloads for mail and homefolder/library/application support/address book for ab.
you will also have to copy the com.apple.mail.plist and com.apple.mail.searchhistory.plist - for mail - and the com.apple.addressbook.abd.plist and the com.apple.addressbook.plist files - for ab - all four located in homefolder/library/preferences.
hope this helps -
Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?
If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
This is great. I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad. If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy. I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer.
I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad. I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad. But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad? I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud. I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be. -
This started a week ago, I turned off my ipod, and it could not be turned back on again. So I held the sleep button and the home button simultaneously for ten seconds, and my iPod responded, the logo appeared. And my iPod worked perfectly for a week, when the same problem appeared last night, I tried to use the tip which I used last week. But a new problem appeared. The logo showed up, and when I tried to type in my password, the logo appear on the screen again, and this just goes back and forth. I can't type in my password. This is driving me crazy, Pleeeeaze, someone please help me!!!!
Have you tried connecting the iPod to your computer and restoring the iPod?

Can photos be transferred back and forth from/to iPhoto and an external drive? If so, how?
Can photos be transferred back and forth from/to iPhoto and an external drive? If so, how?
When in iPhoto for iOS you can share your photo to iTunes and then connect your iPad to your computer and use the file sharing window to move the photo to any connected hard disk. Sharing to iTunes is the only way to maintain original file size when sharing a photo in iPhoto for iOS.

My Apple TV (2) works fine with my iPad and iPhone.
My iTunes syncs with my iPad and iPhone.
I have turned "Home Sharing" off and on multiple times - of course using the same AppleID - and NOTHING shows up under Shared (and then Shared goes away) and NOTHING shows up under "Computers" on Apple TV?
Why aren't Apple TV and iTunes smart enought to work with each other on the same network? This should not be this difficult...I think I am having the same problem.
My issue: since updating the software on ATV, I get an issue where shortly after starting a movie or video of some sort streaming from iTunes on my iMac the vid stops and Apple TV tells me that I need to connect to my Home Sharing account. Sometimes I can fix it by turning Home Sharing off and back on in my settings. Sometimes I need to completely reboot the AppleTV!
Any suggestions??? -
Apple TV 2 - Does the display flip back and forth ?
The original Apple TV had an irritating feature whereby the on-screen image would flip back and forth every 30 sec or so. There was no way to disable this feature, and it ruined an otherwise good product (IMO).
Can anyone tell me if the ATV 2 also has this feature, and if it has, can it be disabled ?CNS wrote:

Actually it is unnecessary, unless you use a CRT or plasma TV.
Not in all cases.
http://www.practical-home-theater-guide.com/image-sticking.html
I suspect modern LCD panels are better but I used to get awful image retention on an LG LCD.
It was worse than effects I get on my current plasmas.
Anyway, I agree the flipping artwork is pretty annoying - I usually just turn the TV off with AppleTV 1 and use the iPhone to control the audio. I've not tested AppleTV2 hooked up to the hi-fi but some suggest you can't get audio when TV is off as the loss of HDMI comms puts AppleTV2 to sleep.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit -

Blue background when moving my macbook screen back and forth
When I move my screen past the 90 degree angle, at a certain point, the background on my safari windows will turn a light blue with very small striped lines. Under words or my mouse, however, the background is still white.
Thanks for any help.It is an external HD, yes, but a "portable" HD... I have also tried just the external HD but found it very bulky and I always had to lug around the power supply and cords for the HD. Google "portable hard drive passport 500gb"... for example... that's what I use.
http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&sugexp=pfwl&tok=o-MzmA7RWsR0_HVA9BIvtg&cp=32& gs_id=2n&xhr=t&q=portable+hard+drive+passport+500gb&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb& biw=1176&bih=861&wrapid=tljp1327460600580060&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=116127269428491234 13&sa=X&ei=DHEfT9G5Goeq2gWr2umRAw&sqi=2&ved=0CJgBEPICMAE#
I had originally set up my client files on my desktop... those files not only included the Web site files, but ALL related communication, content, development files (images, videos, Flash). Nothing worse than being away from home and realizing I'd forgotten to take the photo/text/video development files with me. So I just copy/pasted the ENTIRE client file on the the portable drive... which included any DW site files. Now you may have to adjust some drive names (D:, L:, J: or whatever.) but you can hot swap back and forth and always carry the current version with you to whichever computer you are on
A "portable" HD rather than just an "external"...which may need it's own power supply, means that you can hot swap the HD, just like a thumb drive.... only a heck af a lot BIGGER!
....But during testing and set up... always keep a complete backup of ALL files until you get your particular set up working.
Best wishes,

After 2 hours transferred back and forth between billing, one bill, home and wireless no one could prove that I owed money. Wireless said I owed nothing and home said I had a credit for cancelling a couple days before the billing cycle but owed for wireless. After a three-way called between Home and Wireless and Wireless insisting I do not owe anything, the Home representative disconnected herself, the wireless rep promised me a call back the next day to get the other department online and to get everything resolved. No one called me back next day and the day after. Knowing this could go in circles and don't want to do anything bad to my credit, I paid the settlement amount to the collection agencies. Now I saw that my credit score got ding for an amount that Verizon couldn't prove that I owed. I should not have paid it at all. If someone from Verizon reads this message, please get back to me and get this resolved. After more than 15 years with this company, this is making me so frustrated. I liked Verizon services but at this point I am going to start looking for someone with better billing.
I called customer service, spoke to Verizon Wireless Representative but they cannot pull anything on my record. So after two transfers I asked to speak to financial services. Spoke to Ronnie Ext 5100. Representative was very rude, not listening, kept on insisting that since I paid the collection agency I cannot dispute. Said should not have paid the collection agency. Rep was over talking, not listing to me explaining my frustration of being on the phone for hours in November between Verizon OneBill, Home and Wireless and got nothing resolved, and that's why I paid. Said there's nothing she can do except to put a note to Credit Bureau that the account is paid in full. I asked to talk to a supervisor or a manager and she said no one can do anything else. I insisted and she asked me to leave a phone number to call back. After all the calls and speaking to many reps, this is the worst. Now I am back to square one waiting for someone to call me back. And my credit score is still one hundred points lower thanks to Verizon!!!

My iphone 4s is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4g
Hey! My iPhone 4S is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4G. It will remain connected to wifi for about 10 seconds and switch to 4G for half a second. Then the cycle repeats. It's definitely been a drain on my battery. I've already switched wifi off and on, reset network connections on the phone, and rebooted my wifi and router. None of these have helped. When wifi is off, the 4G works fine. The wifi works in other locations, but my home network is not working. However, all other wireless devices in my home are working fine. Seems like a problem between my phone and the wifi.
Everything you've mentioned points to an issue with the home Wi-Fi.
Try forgetting the connection in Settings > Wi-Fi.
Restart the device and then connect to the Wi-Fi. -

Reinstall OS X:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.

(SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer. -
Moving DreamWeaver website development back and forth between a laptop & desktop?
Ok, let's say that I've installed DreamWeaver on my laptop and desktop machines.
I am developing a website on the laptop: I've created a template, and generated all the children webpages from that template.
When I update the template - all the children webpages of that template update! (( This is one of the most powerful features of DreamWeaver, IMO ))
Now I have decided to move the entire website development over to the Desktop - that mean all the files and folders, as well as the DreamWeaver information regarding the Template and the children webpages that were developed from that template...
How do you do this?
Thanks for any help.It is an external HD, yes, but a "portable" HD... I have also tried just the external HD but found it very bulky and I always had to lug around the power supply and cords for the HD. Google "portable hard drive passport 500gb"... for example... that's what I use.

I had originally set up my client files on my desktop... those files not only included the Web site files, but ALL related communication, content, development files (images, videos, Flash). Nothing worse than being away from home and realizing I'd forgotten to take the photo/text/video development files with me. So I just copy/pasted the ENTIRE client file on the the portable drive... which included any DW site files. Now you may have to adjust some drive names (D:, L:, J: or whatever.) but you can hot swap back and forth and always carry the current version with you to whichever computer you are on
A "portable" HD rather than just an "external"...which may need it's own power supply, means that you can hot swap the HD, just like a thumb drive.... only a heck af a lot BIGGER!
....But during testing and set up... always keep a complete backup of ALL files until you get your particular set up working.
Best wishes,
