How come only 5 users a day can access shared music?

I just moved into the dorms, and all the other people's shared music keeps saying that it will only allow 5 users a day to access others' shared music. How can we change that so we can all share each others' music?

Sorry, but you can't change it. That limit was incorporated into iTunes by demand of the record companies and is not user-settable.

  • Only 5 users a day - sharing issues

    I'm using iTunes 6.0.5 (20) on my Powerbook. Others on my network can see my shared music, but they get a message indicating that only 5 users per day can share my music. This happens even when I just get on the network and have someone check right away.
    My firewall sharing ports are set properly. Sharing is set properly in iTunes preferences. I can see and share/listen to others' music on my network (although some of them give me the same error message).
    I would like to share my 8676 songs with others, and I've been able to in the past. Any ideas?

    This problem clears up when you trash your iTunes preferences.
    User->Library->Preferences->com.apple.iTunes.plist
    Then restart iTunes. You'll have to go through the start-up panes, but sharing works after everything is set.
    I figured this out back in September, but forgot to post the solution. The same problem just reared its head, perhaps with iTunes 7 upgrade.

  • How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?"  Wth...i am using the 64version.

    Hi. How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?"  Wth...i am using the 64 bit version of itunes. Why does it keep saying that? Will someone Help me please!? This is is getting frustrating. I already had done a full removal of everything! I even removed and deleted my library...then had to put all 500 songs back on one by one. So, i don't have to remove everything again, just to get my ipod to work on here. You, know before the itunes update, my ipod and itunes were working just fine.

    wow, that was a quick reply. lol. but i have removed everything. I wasn't even able to get iTunes on my computer for a little while. i kept getting errors on that. Now it's saying that the required software isn't installed. Hmm, could it be referring to Apple Mobile Device Support? That is supposed to be installed with when iTunes gets installed right? I only ask, because that  didn't get installed with the itunes setup.

    I have 2 email addresses on the phone. How come only one accepts a alert tone. When I receive an email from 2nd email it does not notify me of its arrival. What am I doing wrong?

    Each email account can have its own alert or notification settings.

  • How come only one of my podcasts play?

    How come only one of my podcasts play? If I download it then it will play, but they won't play in itunes. Only 1 will play.

    How old is that enclosure? Sounds like it has an ATA controller inside that doesn't have support for 48 bit addressing and can only address 128 gigabytes.
    Send it back and get an enclosure that supports the ATA-6 48 bit addressing standard or don't use a drive larger than 128 gigabytes in it.

    I need to generate a report like name and responsibility. Thanks

    That query gives the Supplier information.

    I assume it should be based on the Responsibility.

  • How to make more than one person can access the database at one time

    how to make  more than one person can access the database at one time 

    Please post further f'up's in the Access forum.
    In short: for different reasons it is best practice that each user gets its own local copy of the database. This means that you need to split it into a front-end which only consists of the forms, queries, reports etc. Everything which doesn't need to be
    shared. And a back-end, which only stores the data.
    Take also a look at Allen Browne's article:
    Split your Access database into data and application.
    When you've splitted your database, you may often consider to use SQL Server as back-end. Here you may read Armen Stein's
    The Best of Both Worlds: Access-SQL Server Optimization.

  • HT204074 I just joined apple itunes match and I want to know if I can access my music on my wife's iPhone if she uses a different ID and password .  If so how can I do this?

    I just joined apple itunes match and I want to know if I can access my music on my wife's iPhone if she uses a different ID and password .  If so how can I do this?

    You would have to sign in with your account. Be aware that an iDevice or Mac or PC can only be associated with a particular iCloud/ iTunes in the Cloud account once every 90 days. So if you associate your iTunes in the cloud/Match account with her iPhone ,she will have to wait 90 days before going back to HER itunes in the cloud account.

  • In itunes, when i plug my 16gb iphone in, it says i have 5.8gb of "other" filled on my phone, what is "other" and how do i delete it so i can put more music on

    In itunes, when i plug my 16gb iphone in, it says i have 5.8gb of "other" filled on my phone, what is "other" and how do i delete it so i can put more music on

      I know by the date of this thread that I'm probably too late to help you but I had the same problem and just figured out what the "other" really was. It is application archives.
         I'll explain it if you're curious, if not just skip to the next paragraph. When you sync your device and it is trying to update apps it doesn't want to lose the old app while its doing that. So it uploads an "application archive" zip file. Those files normally get deleted once the sync is over, but If that sync gets interupted you have all those zip files there taking up space.
         You don't have to restore your iOS device and lose all your contacts, messages, app data. All you have to do is use a iOS device file browser and delete some old partial apps from incompleted syncs.
         I use "DiskAid" or "iFunBox" but you can use any app that can change the files on your device. I'm going to tell you how to do it using DiskAid.
         First download and install DiskAid
         Once it's installled open it and plug in your device.
         Click on your iPhone/iPod/iPad then on:
              Storage, then
              Media, then
              Application Archives,
         Then just delete all thos zip files! (they will usually have weird name such as "com.NameOfTheCompanyWhoMadeTheApp.NameOfTheApp.zip" (Except it would have the name of the company and the app instead.
         It won't change anything else on your device. It's perfectly safe.
         I hope this helps you as much as it helped me!

  • Can I Sharing Music Between I-tunes Libraries

    Hope someone can help.........
    I recently copied our itunes music from our desktop to our laptop. Kids can used the desktop and we will use the laptop. I have "authorized" the new laptop to purchase and play itunes music. If our daughter purchases a song on her account using the desktop, can I then also pull that new song from her library onto our ipod?
    In other words, if I merely plug our ipod into her desktop, can I pull that song out for me since I paid for it? Can ipods accept music from more than one computer? Hope this makes sense.
    Thank you.

    *if I merely plug our ipod into her desktop, can I pull that song out for me since I paid for it?*
    Yes you can. You can also copy purchases from one computer to another (you can authorise up to 5 computers to play your purchases). iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between authorized computers
    *Can ipods accept music from more than one computer?*
    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
