How do i get my itunes to save everything to my external hard drive instead of the regular one? like back my iphone and save updates to the external hard drive

yea, i'm pretty much maxing out on my memory for my lap top and i want everything to save to my external hard drive. especially when i update my iphone and back it up. does anyone know how to get my macbook to do that?

Type move itunes library into the google serach bar.
It has always been very basic to always maintain  abackup copy of your computer.  Do you not have a backup copy?

  • In outlook 13, How can I get my new mail to populate my existing "account" or "Profile" instead of two separate ones

    I set up outlook, using mainly wizards. I have received some mail from my provider account.

    I finally got it deleted
    I now have my first profile with email I received, and all data (contacts, emails and archived items) but now I can not get new email.
    I tried to "change settings" but there is no account listed to chose to change.
    I create new and again I have two accounts.

    How to set up completely new, and move everything from existing profile to it and get rid of existing, Just do not want two.
    Thank you so much.

    You can open your second profile which is no ability of receiving new mail and export all of messages/contacts/calendar item to a PST file and save it somewhere.
    Then open the first profile, import the privious PST file into this profile to solve the problem.
    Using .pst files in Microsoft Outlook is good way to transfer the data, here is some information how to manage the PST file for your reference.

    Have you looked on all the pages of your iPod?  Have you looked in all your folders?  Have you you tried finding the apps using the iPod's search page.

    Hello! Just connected a used iPhone to iTunes for the first time. I'm trying to restore it to factory settings/default. The phone is connected via Wi-Fi and is updated to the most recent OS that the phone allows. The computer is also connected to the internet. But I still get the error: "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet." I also connected via iTunes and authorized the computer, but still have the same issue. Really, all I need to do is completely wipe the phone and start from scratch for safety's sake.
    Help?

    Did you check your security software settings?
    Third-party security software might conflict with iOS devices connecting to iTunes. Follow this article to troubleshoot issues that might be caused by your security software.

  • HT4847 Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account

    Just got a second iPad for the home.
    Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account?

    Yes, but it's not usually recommended to share an iCloud account within a family.  If you do, any data you sync with iCloud will be merged and you, for example, will end up with each other's contacts and calendars on your devices.  Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting a contact) will be replicated on the other devices.  You will also all be sharing the same 5GB of free storage for all your data and device backups.
    Normally it's best to use separate iCloud accounts for each person's devices.  This will keep your data separated, and allow each person to have their own free 5GB of storage.  You can continue to share the same iTunes ID within the family; the ID you use for iCloud does not need to be the same as the one your use for iTunes purchasing.  (Each person should also use a separate ID on their devices for iMessage and FaceTime to avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.)

  • How can I transfer data (iTunes/iPhoto) MacBook Pro (Late 2011) to my brand new iMac 27" - Apple Support couldn't help me and did not make the promised call-back

    I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro 13" and bought a brand new iMac 27" last week.
    I tried to transfer data (musdic & photos) via Thunderbolt, but i did not run, my system always
    tries to transfer data via WLAN, but that would last more than 80 hours.
    I tried to get some help from the Apple Support, but unfortunately they couldn't help me.
    A promised call-back from the next higher support-level has not been done.
    Does anybody know what the problem might be.
    The Thunderbolt-cable is brand new.

    Instead of using Migration Assistant, the best way is to use the Target Disk Mode, so you will save headaches (Migration Assistant creates a new user with the transferred data).
    To do this, just connect both Macs with the Thunderbolt cable, and then, start the MacBook Pro holding the T key, so a Thunderbolt or FireWire icon should appear on the display. After that, go to the iMac, open Finder, and the hard drive of the MacBook Pro will appear on the Finder sidebar as an external drive, under "Devices". Just access to it, go to the folders with your iTunes and iPhoto libraries, and copy them to the iMac

  • How do I get a new tab to automatically open as my home page instead of a blank one?

    I want to click on the tab button and have my home page appear in the new tab instead of a blank page. Is this possible and, if so, how is it done?

    You can also middle-click the Home button, just like any other link. Middle-click and a Ctrl left click also works for some right-click context menu items like View Image and the list that opens with a right click on the Back and Forward button.

  • TS2634 when i plug in my supra ekey adapter i get the message "accessory not supported by iphone" and i've had the adapter checked. it's ok

    When i plug my supra ekey adapter into my iphone, I get the message "accessory not supported by iphone". I know the adapter works because I took it back to my realtor association and they checked it.

    Try cleaning out the phone's dock connector. A soft dry toothbrush or similar.

  • How do I get direct into P/S cc from a picture in Bridge instead of it coming up in Windows photo viewer when I click on the picture?

    On previous versions I simply clicked on a picture in BR and it came up in P/S at the moment it defaults to Windows photo viewer. I also get a version of Elements editor 12 trial showing in the "open with" table that I would like to get rid of ?

    at the moment it defaults to Windows photo viewer.
    In Bridge preferences file type associations you can alter the application you want Bridge to open that file type in.
    I also get a version of Elements editor 12 trial showing in the "open with" table that I would like to get rid of ?
    The open with shows all applications on your system, if you have not uninstalled the trial version properly you should try to do so or just ignore it.

  • My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address.  I had to quit using this email address as it got hacked.  I created a new gmail account.  How can I get my iTunes downloads into the new gmail account?

    My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address.  I had to quit using this address  as it got hacked.  How do I get my iTunes downloads into my new iTunes account that was created with a new gmail address?  In my old iTunes account (with the old gmail address,  I can't 'update' my email address or even 'add an alternate address' as I had already created this gmail account and inputting the new address into iTunes gives me the 'pop-up' that 'this account is already in use.'   Advice please!

    Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

    You don't use Airplay.  You set up Home Sharing on both and under the Computers section of AppleTV you'll then find it under Movies (or Rentals if rented), assuming it's in a compatible format.
