How do I access and use my i Tunes library on a different computer?

The iTunes library is only where the user puts it.  If desired to have on an additional computer, put it there by copying the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the existing computer to the new computer.

    How do I access and use my Itunes library from a different/new computer?  My computer is no longer working, so I need to be able to access my library from my wife's computer.

    Your library will only be where you put it.  Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.

    Clarisworks, you need Appleworks, which will only work with Mac OS X10.6.8 or earlier.  See this tip if you must go newer.  Mac Pros with newer hardware configuration than July 20, 2011 can't use Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier without this tip and then it would be Mac OS X Server.  I'm not sure if the new black Mac Pro supports that configuration or not.
    iPhoto, there is an iPhoto for all versions of Mac OS X.
    iTunes, there is an iTunes for all versions of Mac OS X.  Note with iTunes versions 11 and later, which are needed for syncing with iOS 7 or or later, you will lose coverflow, if you liked that feature.  Sadly you can't run an older version of iTunes from within Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
    Sketchup: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/60107 shows the versions that will work with intermediate Mac OS X versions, and this shows the latest version: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/36208 be sure to click on the operating system you choose to use.
    GIF - Viewing GIFs Apple's Preview can do that.  Editing them, I like http://www.lemkesoft.com/ Graphicconverter.
    DMG is able to be opened by all versions of Mac OS X.  This are just "disk images" which store programs on a virtual disk that will open when double clicked.    Frequently you'll find the installer of the said program inside.  To find out if the program itself is compatible with 10.7 through 10.9, see http://www.roaringapps.com/

  • How can I access and use the alphabetical keyboard of the phone ?

    How can I access and use the alphabetical keyboard of the phone ? I cannot find the answer in the manual of use.  Thanks for your help !

    Recently I was abroad and tried to contact my voicemail to check my messages. I was asked to enter a password and did not know how to use the letters below the figures on the keyboard.  I had to give up and wait until I was back in my country (no password is then needed).

  • Does my macbook air have a built in virus scan?  how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

    does my macbook air have a built in virus scan?  how can I access and use it? also any recommendations of what software if this is not avail ?

    Contrary to what Geeks on Hugs is telling you, Mac OS X does indeed have a basic malware scanner. It is not a feature that is directly accessible to the user, and works a bit differently than every other malware scanner out there. Gatekeeper, which has been mentioned here, is entirely separate, and provides a different method for helping to protect you against malware.
    The anti-malware scanner in Mac OS X is called XProtect. When you download an application (or any other kind of executable code), it is automatically "quarantined," so that when you open it you're asked if you really want to do that. I'm sure you're very familiar with this aspect of Mac OS X if you have ever downloaded any apps from outside the App Store. What you don't know, though, is that each time you try to open a new app, that app is checked by XProtect. If it is identified as malware, you will not be allowed to open it, and will be warned that it's malware.
    At this time, there is no known malware that can infect a properly up-to-date Mac. All current malware will be blocked by one or more methods.
    For more information, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • I have an old ipod and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.

    I have an old ipod (it's the very thin oblong one in purple, the one before the one that does video) and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.  I now have an iPhone 5S and listen to music on that, so want to be able to listen to things from the old ipod too.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks very much

    Apple normally does not get involved in handling lost objects like this.  Since a real name is not installed it will be much more difficult.
    You can try contacting Apple support at the US number, assume you are US going to BWI from the listing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and explain the situation and see if they offer any suggestions.

  • How do I access and use my main computer over my local network ?

    I have a wireless internet connection that currently runs from the outside antenna into the house via ethernet. My internet provider is setting up a second wireless system so that a computer 1/2 mile away can share the connection. I believe they are going to run the signal from my existing antenna into a router that will connect to the ethernet wire to my house and to an access point that will shoot a signal from a second antenna to my computer 1/2 mile away.
    I'd like to know the best way to access the computer in my house from the one 1/2 mile away.
    I'd like to be able to access and use files on my home computer so that all changes are kept on it. I'd also like to access any e-mail messages that Mail has recieved.
    My ISP said that they would have to enable VPN.
    I'd like to know if enabling file sharing would be enough, or do I need this Vine program I've read about on this forum, or do I need to set my home computer up as a server, or do I need to do something else ?
    I've read about lots of stuff but don't understand any of it very well.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    But why pay for a solution. You can do the same thing with "Share My Desktop" and "Chicken of the VNC".

  • How can i access my itunes library in a different computer?

    I have my itunes library in my laptop at home and sometimes during my spare time in the office I want to access my library or download more songs to my library. How can I do that?

    your personal library is not saved to the internet, but your itunes account is, so you can download songs on different computers through your accound
    also, if you want all of your itunes library on both comps, then just copy them using some kind of connection.
    And ipod works best

  • Music from CDs that is on my iPod won't transfer to my iTunes library on a different computer I used to use but all music bought from iTunes will? How do I fix this?

    In the past to get music from CDs onto my iTunes library and onto my iPod was all easy and fine, as you would know if you have done such a thing before. I used to use a different laptop for all my music stuff to the desktop I have to use now as the other one is broken. It is an authorised computer on my iTunes, so my issue has got nothing to do with that. When I got this desktop (it is quite an old one, if that makes any difference), i had to download iTunes and put all my music into my library to back it up.
    However, all music that I had bought physically that is currently on my iPod (CDs) WON'T transfer into my new library on the desktop, but all music that I had bought digitally (iTunes) WILL transfer.
    This has led to about 300 missing songs in my library and means I can't transfer all of my music onto a different device (as I am trying to transfer all my music onto an iPhone 3).
    I have tried countless things. All of that "File > Devices > Transfer purchases" stuff WILL. NOT. WORK. I tried copying the music into a file on the desktop and then adding said file into the library, but it won't let me paste any music.
    If someone were to help me in transferring the music I so dearly love then I would be eternally grateful.
    Thank you

  • Accessing and Sharing Common iTunes Library over LAN

    I would like to implement the following: store all of my music on a home server (Windows server for Crestron Compatibility) with iTunes and access it from Mac clients around the house. I would like to buy songs and store them on the server, but so that they are immediately available to very Mac client, so that, if I buy the song from the iMac in the master bedroom, the song gets to the iTunes library on the Windows server and I can see it on the Powerbook iTunes in the kitchen. Is it possible?
    I tried playing around with my two iMacs, and it didn't work so well. As of now, I have the master iTunes library on the new Intel iMac. I went to my G4 iMac and, under the iTunes advanced preference pane I mapped the G4 library to the Intel iMac's iTunes folder. I then bought a song from the G4, and the song showed up in the G4's library, but not under the G4's iTunes folder. Rather, it was correctly stored onto the Intel iMac's iTunes folder. Problem was, it didn't show up in the Intel iMac's library. I had to manually import the song into iTunes to make it show up. So, my guess is that it would be invisible even to the powerbook in the kitchen.
    Do you guys think there is a simple way to map the clients' iTunes library to a common location and make it immediately visible to every client? I think it's something more and more people will want to implement in the near future...

  • How do I set up a new iTunes Library when others on computer already do

    I'm trying to set up my own iTunes account/library, but when I sign on, the computer automatically downloads all my daughter's music, etc. How can I set up an individual account that is separate from everyone else's account who shares this computer?

    Go to control panel_user accounts_ and set up yourself as a new user (Make sure you have administrative privileges - you may not want your daughter to be an administrator). Once you log on as a new user, you can have your own itunes library as well as other nifty stuff like your own Outlook account.
