How can i use different computer to manage iPhone?

I have been using iTunes on a Win7 machine since i had my iPhone4.
Now, since i have some problems in Win7, i'd like to switch to my Mac mini (mac os x Lion) to manage (sync, backup, update) from now on.
If i connect, i am not allowed to backup since this is not the computer "attached" to this iPhone. I do have most of the stuff on both machines (music, apps, and so on...)
How can i change this? Indeed i want to avoid replacing my iPhone content by different things...
Thanks,
Robert

you need to move your iTunes Library from your Windows machine to your Mac. Apple has iTunes set up so that you can't simply use multiple computers to back up and download files to your phone. It keeps us honest and doesn't allow you to share music, movies, books etc.
You should be able to copy your library to a flash drive or DVD on your PC, unless it is really huge.
Or you can turn on home sharing on both machines and copy your files from the PC to the Mac.

How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

You can't, well not easily anyway. The iPad is not meant as a multi account device.
You can Sign Out of your iTunes account in Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out
However if you sign in with another ID and then download past purchases with it you will lock out the previous ID for 90 days. Which means it will not be able to be used on the iPad for 90 days.

How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)

How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries? We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account. Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?

The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
The longer answer: Think of it like this...
You download some music in iTunes. With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network. But the data itself is on your computer. If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device. Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple).
When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

How can I use stored music on my iphone 6 as a ringtone?

How can I use stored music on my iphone 6 as a ringtone?

The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
Iphone will sycn with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.

I just purchased an iMac. How can I use apps purchased on my iPhone and iPad on my new laptop?

I just purchased an iMac. How can I use apps purchased on my iPhone and iPad on my new laptop?

1) Congratulations on purchaing an iMac. But an iMac is not considered a laptop.
2) Apps you bought for you iPhone and iPad can interchange with each other, but can NOT run on an Imac or a MacBook.
You will have to buy the same title again from the Mac App Store. When you do, you can run them on your iMac and your MacBook.

My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac. We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes. How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.

If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

iPhone - Locating wireless carriers
The above will provide carriers in Singapore that you can use. You would get the SIM card from the carrier. Of course if you are somewhere that has WiFi service then you won't need the cellular connection.

How can I use different presets on the same instrument?

I use Session Horns Pro with Kontakt Played in Mainstage 3.
You can choose different presets within Session Horns without having to load additional samples and take up more memory.
How can I create different patches that use the changes of Session Horn Patches without duplicating the samples in Kontakt?
If I copy the channel strip and 'Paste as alias" changes made to one copy are the same as the alias. It seems there must be a way to "Automate" controls in an alias that is unique to each patch. I could also use to do this on instruments like Vintage Clav and Vintage B3 where I don't want to create duplicate instances of CPU hungry plug ins just to use different presets in different patches.
Thanks in advance to anyone out there who knows of a workaround!

Yes. You can sync apps/music/etc to as many of your iphones/ipads/ipods as you like.

How can I use my hotmail on an Iphone

What kind of system is hotmail is it an IMAP? I'm using my hotmail the most so I would like to know how can I use hotmail on an Iphone.

MS does not use an industry standard email account protocol (IMAP or POP) for accessing a free Hotmail account with a non-MS email client. You can access a paid or Hotmail Plus account ($20/yr) as a POP account with the iPhone's email client and the same with any other email client on any platform - Mac or Windows PC.

How can I use different calendars associated with different emails to see appointments separately?

I have 3 emails accounts on my Blackberry curve. I want to use different calendars for different type of reminders/appointments. How can I do that? In calendar I pressed menu key and then clicked on select calendar, choose one email address (email 1) then entered an alarm but now if I go to a different calendar associated with different email ( email 2), it also shows me that alarm which I entered in email 1 calendar. Thanks for help

Don't have LV handy to open the old code, but I did read through the thread you referenced. It sounds like the example configured 2 counters to create the variable-freq finite pulse train and configured a 3rd counter to count the # steps generated as verification. That 3rd counter would be a problem for you as there is no internal timing signal connection between your 2 USB devices. You would need to run a physical wire connection and change some of the config code to match. Alternately, you could just delete all the code associated with the 3rd counter for now because it isn't strictly necessary.
Further advice/questions: Are you planning on a pure sine wave of frequency such that you oscillate with both positive and negative velocity (example: varying from -1000 to +1000 Hz clockwise)? Or is there a nominal average frequency with a small sine wave superimposed (example: nominal of 1000 Hz clockwise, variation of +/- 50 Hz)?
I *think* you may be dealing with more of a continuous pulsetrain situation, which is actually much simpler. You would only need 1 counter/timer, though you would still perform the freq changes in a timed loop which uses the pulsetrain as its timing source. You'd just need to keep track of your total elapsed time so you could figure out the right sinusoidal freq value at the moment you're ready to update it.
Another subtlety to watch out for if you're oscillating about 0 velocity -- don't try to create a frequency that is lower than the rate at which you need to update. Also, with steppers you may have mechanical stability issues at low freqs like 10's to low 100's of Hz. These kinds of things may need to be managed as special cases which force you to deviate from a "pure" sine wave.

How can i use different suffix for read-only and read-write?

I have a directory server with 11.1.1.5,I have created the root dn:o=test.com.cn. This dn is replication enabled and it is the consumer.
I want to create another suffix:ou=test1,o=test.com.cn and I wish to write some data from own.
However,when I use dscc to create the suffix,I can not find any entry under the suffix.
When I use the command:
ldapsearch -b "ou=test1,o=test.com.cn" -s sub "objectclass=*"
I get this:ldap_search:no such object
I can not import any ldif to this suffix.
I get the error:
import test1: WARNING: Skipping entry "uid=jwalker, ou=People, ou=test1,o=test.com.cn" which has no parent, ending at line 280 of file "/opt/dsinst/test1.ldif"
When I use dscc to change the suffix to rootdn,I get the same error too.
How can i do now?
Thank u very much.

There are a few issues here, ie
"uid=jwalker, ou=People, ou=test1,o=test.com.cn" has no parent.
Did you create ou=People, ou=test1,o=test.com.cn before you tried to create above dn?
Also, your suffix naming is very poor and will result in more problems later on especially since you want to create sub suffices.
you should use the DC notation, ie dc=test,dc=com,dc=cn that way you can easily attach o=test1,dc=test,dc=com,dc=cn
This way you would be able to keep your separate suffices inside separate database files and you will have less headaches when you try to replicate and do bulk re-initialisations.

How can I use the microphone on the iPhone 5 headphones with my ASUS Laptop?

ASUS Vivobook X202E

Headphone jack is both headphone and microphone jack
How can I manage to use the microphone on my Apple iPhone 5 headphones with my ASUS laptop?
When I plug in the headphones, only the headphones work, the microphone does nothing.
Anyone find a solution.
Thank you in advance for any and all help.

I doubt that the Apple headset is compatible with your laptop. Apple devices have an extra "ring" in the plug and jack for connecting the control buttons. Your laptop does not recognize the extra contact.

How can I use one account on 2 Iphones?

Hello,
I want to use same icloud account on 2 iphones. The problem is with contacts, each iphone use different contacts and if I sync both phones with same account contacts mixes and is added from phone 1 in phone 2 and vice versa.
It is an option to separate the contacts and get them to each phone separately?

If the person have 2 or many iPhones? Why does the person want to waste money?
One iPhone can do it all.
This is a very usual case if someone has a personal phone number and a business phone number. This is done for a number of reasons, including having a separate bill for the business number and so you can avoid taking calls on the business phone when you are technically "unavailable".
Besides the group idea, there is absolutely nothing wrong with having two separate iCloud accounts for one's personal and business use. Just as with the phone number, the email contacts, email account, calendar, etc. can all be kept separate.
