How Can I Sync Multiple Changes at the same time?

Is there a way to configure iTunes so that I can make changes in multiple sections, and only sync or apply them when I've made all of them?
For example: I want to changes setting in Music, Apps, and Books. Today, it seems like I have to go to change settings,hit apply, and wait for the iTunes to sync for each one. What I want to do it make changes in all of them, then hit apply/sync and wait for the iTunes to sync all my changes in one swoop.
The seems very intuitive and saves the user a lot of time. Can iTunes be configured to due this?

The OP's question asked - in iTunes for Windows, if it was possible to "configure iTunes" (not the iPod) and then "Sync those changes to the iPod in one step"
Is there a way to configure iTunes so that I can make changes in multiple sections, and only sync or apply them when I've made all of them?
For the media, one can;
untick songs in the Library in order for them to be removed at the next Sync (and obviously the reverse to put them back on),
the same procedure for books,
create and modify Playlists,
remove or add photos to the chosen Photos folder (in Windows of course, not in iTunes) which then get removed or added at the next Sync,
and then connect the iPod. One can prevent an iPod from Syncing at initial connection time, so that further changes to things such as which Apps to Sync (which does need to iPod to be connected), choices of Selected Playlists only, etc. (ditto) can be made by choosing the appropriate pane. As yet, whenever I've done this, I have never had to Sync one change before switching to a different pane. The first change causes the Apply and Revert buttons to appear. I ignore them and continue to make further changes on the other panes. Then I select Apply. The Apply/Revert buttons are removed and replaced by a Sync button. So, although there is the Apply, then Sync to be done, it can hardly be described as a burden.
Are you saying Chris, that you have to apply one change at a time, followed by a sync before making any other change?

In Elements 7.0, how can I delete multiple photos at the same time?

In Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0, how can I delete multiple photos at the same time? Please be a little specific so I can follow your instructions as I'm not real smart at computers; I'm an intermediate user. Thank you.

Shift-click the photos or Ctrl-click them to select them, then right-click one of them and choose Delete from Catalog. They will all go together.

Here is a script which may be useful.

How do i sync multiple ipads at the same time?

I am a high school principal and I have just received 80 new mini iPads. I know that there is a much better way to sync them than doing all 80 of them individually.

I believe that you are correct. I have seen such devices in the past, but know absolutely nothing about them. You would be much better off posting your question here. I am going to ask the hosts to move your post as well.

How do I sync multiple iPods to the same iTunes Library?

How can I sync multiple iPods to the same iTunes Library?

The same way you sync just one. If y want different media on each iPod then only select the items you want synced to each iPod
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Also, I would go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says prevent iPods... for syncing automatically so that you can more easily check what you want syned

How do I sync multiple iPones on the same iMac

How do I sync multiple iPones on the same iMac

Use another account where? Let's say phone A is being synced to Mac A, and now you want to add phones B and C to Mac A, then they will all be syncing using the same account, the one used on Mac A. Phones B and C can share apps and songs currently on Mac A's iTunes, but they will lose any apps, etc. that were previously put on them from other macs that use different accounts. That's the way it works. If you want to keep the apps on B and C, then keep syncing them to their original macs.

How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?

I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?

*This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.

Label Printing Using Address Book - How can I Print multiple labels of the same name?

Label Printing Using Address Book - How can I Print multiple labels of the same name?

I used to be able to print multiple copies of the same picture on one page using iphoto. There was a customise button when you went through to print and it was there somewhere. I can't see it anymore - maybe since an upgrade.
It's gone. But as a work-around, duplicate your photo (⌘D) to create as many versions as you want copies and select all at once. Then use the "Custom" print layout and set the photo size you want.
After printing, trash the added versions.

Of course, you can combine several deliveries into one shipment. You can set your own selection variant to select deliveries with the same ship-to party.
You cannot combine several deliveries into one delivery. The combination of deliveres is possible only when creating deliveries in VL10*.

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper? Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

Can you opening multiple albums at the same time in Photo (not iPhoto)?

When converting the iPhoto library to Photo most of the albums that were in place in iPhoto converted to albums in Photo . . . .but not all. Some were retained as events mainly those that were folders within an album. In order to move them to the right album I would like to have multiple albums open at the same time (side by side) so that I can make sure not to duplicate photos or move them to the wrong spot.
I cant see how to do this, it seems that I can need to open one album and check phots and then close to look within and other and rely on memory. There must be a more efficient and accurate way to do this?

All of the events in iPhoto were converted to albums and are located in the Folder titled iPhoto Event in the sidebar of Photos.
You can't open multiple albums at the same time. You can create a smart album that will do essentially the same thing with the following criteria:
Album is "A"
Album is "B".
The smart album will display all of the photos in those two albums.
