How can I use my ITunes library currently on my desktop, on my laptop?

Having a family party and wanted to play some of the ITunes songs I have on my desktop using my laptop. How do I do this other than with home sharing which if I understand correctly, only works within your home while both computers are on. Party is not in my home and I also want to play more than just "purchased" tracks.

i am sure there will be no problem with access to itunes through your laptop, if you still stay in your country:)

  • How can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    how can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    Here's a possible workaround:
    Create the slideshow in Iphoto and add a theme and music.
    Install Picasa  and it will include the slideshow on it's indexed list.
    Upload the slideshow to PicasaWebAlbums and send the link to anyone you wish.
    The music and theme is preserved.
    Caveat: My playback pictures appear darker than usual but that could be just lousy photography...:)

  • HT1660 how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

    how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

    You are most of the way there. Each user having access to hard drive is the key. If users are limited in file privileges this is harder.
    Any files you add to your library and any files she adds to her library are available to the other. Just not automatically. Each user must add the files to their own library using the add file or add folder option from menu bar.
    What I have done is set library location to a location outside of My Documents\My Music. On my network storage I have a folder names s:\itunes. Both accounts iTunes are set to use this location for the library.

  • Can I transfer my iTunes library from my dying desktop to my laptop?

    My desktop is on it's last legs and I have ALL my itunes songs, videos, etc. on this computer (Windows XP). I want to pull all the songs off this desktop and put them all on my laptop (Windows Vista). My desktop does not have a cd/dvd burner but I do have a large external hard drive which I can use to transfer the songs, etc. Is there a document that will tell me how to do this or could someone help me out and tell me how to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Could you just move them to the external HD and use them from there? See this link which is titled "iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Music folder"
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305451
    I moved all my music off my PC to an external HD and repointed iTunes to this. All worked great. Only one issue - somehow I have everything noted as installed when I moved them rather than original load date. Maybe I did something wrong and could have avoided that, but it is not a biggie.

  • A friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use mine which I want to sync with my Ipad and Iphone?

    A Friend gave me her VAIO laptop.How can I remove her ITUNES library and use my library.  Want to sync my Ipad and Iphone to My library.

    I believe when you plug her old iPhone in to your computer it will notify you that the phone is synced with another library and ask if you want to register it with your library.  At least this is how iPods work.  I'm not sure about iPhones.  If you want to actually use the phone as your own you may need to go through AT&T.
    If you're just looking to use the iPhone as an iPod (without the phone portion of it) you may run in to some problems.  The iPhone really wants to be on a cell network all the time.  I think you'd have to jailbreak it to get it to work properly as an iPod.
    Let us know what happens when you plug the phone in to your computer.

  • How can I share my iTunes library with 2 iTunes accounts?

    How can I share my iTunes library between me and my wife?
    I do not want to set-up 2 seperate accounts on my mac. Do not want to do home sharing or anything like this. 
    I just would like to connect my iPad to ONE itunes library and at the same time connect my wifes iPad to the SAME itunes library. Can this be done? How? Thanks! Maybe the answer is something really easy like "just connect both to the computer and sync them".
    Thanks!

    Plug them in and use them.
    That is all you need to do.
    In the answer from Apple I do not find anything about how the 2 exisiting iTunes accounts will be handled.
    They will be handled fine.
    All purchases from both iTunes accounts can be sync'd to both/either iPads with no problem.
    I have three iTunes accounts (me and two daughters), 3 iPhones, an iPad and a few iPods.
    Any/all content can be sync'd to any device, no problems.

  • I just purchased a Macbook, iPad, and iPhone and I am trying to sync my iTunes library from my Windows laptop.  How can I sync my iTunes library to all devices?

    I just recently purchased a MacBook Pro (13 inch with Retina display), an iPad Air 2, and an iPhone 6 plus.  Before these purchases, I was using a Windows 7 laptop to manage my iTunes library and iTunes purchases.  I am in need of syncing my iTunes library on my iPod classic (160 GB) with all of my new Apple devices.  How can I sync my iTunes library with all of my new devices?

    Devices can only sync to one library at a time. You can, however, have multiple copies of libraries on different computers though it can be tricky making sure they are always synchronized.  You can put your Windows iTunes on your Mac.
    Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
    When this is to a new computer put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • How can i share my iTunes library with my fiancee, he has new iPhone 5 I have an iPhone 4s,iPad, and Mac Book Pro. I signed on to his phone with my account and the library is in iTunes but it is not showing up in his music?

    How can i get my itunes library on my fiances' iphone 5?  I have an iphone 4s, ipad and a Mac book pro.  I thought I could have my music on up to ten different devises?  I signed in on his phone and my music is in his itunes account but it is not in his music file.

    I regret to say that you need a new computer. That G5, as good as it still is, simply cannot run the required software to be used with the latest iPhones and other software.

  • How can I "refresh" my iTunes Library?

    How can I "refresh" my iTunes Library? I recently moved my library to an external and made the source folder change in preferences. My library now shows all exclamations asking me to locate the files. What is the quick fix to locate or "refresh" all?

    Michael,
    Your response here seems exaclty like the answer that I need.  My logic board broke and I had to get a new one.  Sent to Apple and all is working again.  I didn't have an super recent time machine back up....my last one was 2 months old.  I was able to salvage my music from the computer before sending in for repair and when I got it back, I reloaded my music file onto my machine.  I use iTunes match so maybe that kept many of my files/playlists etc in order.  But my iTunes is asking me to download many songs that are showing in iTunes and are in a folder in iTunes.  These are songs I downloaded during that 2 month break between time machine backups.  I think a refresh will fix this issue.  But when I follow your steps above, I not certain what file to choose.  I tried to go to my itunes ---> itunes media ---> music but that doesn't work.  Do I need to choose the "iTuens Library.itl" file?  I use my playlists for my job so I don't want to just guess here and lose everything.  I did do a backup of my playlists so hopefully I'm protected if something happens but just want a bit more guidance on this.  Thank you for your help and your time and let me know if you have any questions. 
    Best,
    Kirk

    Hello Solid Buck,
    Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone. 
    In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone.  I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.

  • My computers hard drive has stoped working, how can I retrieve my Itunes library from my computer?

    My computers hard drive has stoped working. How can I retrieve my itunes library? My back ups were on this hard drive as well.
    When I brought my computer to be fixed they said they would retrieve photos and music and documents but loose my programs. That being said I am not sure if I will recover my music from itunes because it may fall under the program category. I support itunes by purchasing from itunes, but now i am in a position where i may loose years of purchassing music and it has me feeling a little bit sick to be honest...the stress this is causing is really big. DÙoes anyone have any experience with this type of problem?
    Help is appreciated, thank you.

    If the data is recoverable from the drive then they should have recovered the entire iTunes folder which includes the library database. Restore this into the <User's Music> folder of a replacement system, install iTunes, and it should be as before.
    See also  Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Even if you don't have one there should be some useful links...
