How can i get my music on my labtop

If all of those items were purchased from the iTunes Store, and all those purchased items are currently on the iPod, it is easy. Connect the iPod to your new laptop. If iTunes asks if you want to sync it to the iTunes library on your new laptop, say no or cancel to this offer. You want iTunes to start without syncing. The iPod should appear in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.
Select the iPod in the sidebar. Go up to the menu bar, under File, and select +Transfer Purchased from <name of iPod>+.
If there are songs (or other media files) that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, and you don't want to re-rip then from CDs or other original source, you will have to transfer the files from where they are stored now and copy them to your new laptop. Please post back if this is the case.

How can I share iPhoto libraries across more than one computer?

I am trying to find a solution for multiple users accessing a single iPhoto library.
I want to have just one "master" library for my family, which we can all access via different computers.
I also want to apply the same principle of a "master" library for iTunes and iMovie, plus all our files/documents - see the original question here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4940803.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thank you

iPhoto has never been designed as a shared network database. What you want to do is currently not supported, Jerry, sorry.
Some things to consider - assuming you are using the most recent iPhoto version:
iPhoto '11 will not allow to have the library be opened by more than one user at a time. It will lock the iPhoto library, if it is already in use.
The iPhoto library needs to be on a disk, that is formatted MacOS X Extended (Journaled), otherwise iPhoto will not open it. Most network volumes have a different formatting.
Network access is considerably slower than the access to a locally connected drive. You will have a noticable decrease in performance when working over the network. Editing the images will be no joy, if each and every access to the databases inside the library needs a network access.
Since iPhoto is not specified as a network database, there is no built-in protection against network drop-outs and transmission errors when doing database transactions. You will be risking to corrupt your iPhoto library.
Save sharing options would be:
Let the iPhoto library be managed by one user, but give read-access to your family members using the "Sharing" preferences. You can share all albums or selected albums on your local network for browsing.
Put your iPhoto library on a portable drive and let each family member use the drive in turn.
Use shared Photo Streams to share your photos.
This is Apple's recommendation on how to share a library:

How do I use my music on more than one Windows login.

Does anyone know how I can use itunes in more than 1 login? I have just created a new login and can't see my music in the library.
Can anyone help!

Make sure to read the link in that article Kay posted - about listening to another accout's files.
If you miss this step, you'll get double copies of your media files on your hard drive:
+Deselect the option to "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library file."+

How do I get iTunes to play more than one song at a time on my PC?

I have selected all in a playlist, then click the play button. It plays only the first song in the playlist. How do I get it to play all of those selected?

My iTunes is doing the same thing: when I select a playlist and hit "play," if shuffle is turned on, iTunes plays only one song and then stops. If shuffle is turned off, it plays just fine (one song after another, in order).
Select the songs, right click - get info.
Select the Options tab and Uncheck *Skip when shuffling*.
Also, when I hit shuffle, it doesn't rearrange the songs in the playlist like it's supposed to.
If you are sorting on any column besides the very first on before the track name, the songs will stay displayed in that same sort order.
When you play the playlist, the list will jump around and be shuffled.
If you are sorting on the very first column, the list will be displayed in the shuffled order and play in that order.

How can i get audible audiobooks from more than one account on my ipod

itunes is limiting me from transfering books form more than 2 account to my ipod. is there some way around this so that I can get all my audio books on my ipod

have you heard about Thunderbird profiles? A profile change requires a restart unlike OE and it's change of identities. But multiple profiles is basically functionally identical to the OE identify. Two completely separate set of accounts and address books. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_manager
There is also an add-on https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/index-en.html#profname which make a menu entry to allow you to set te profile to be opened next time Thunderbird starts.
I am guessing crashing into the already existing outlook import folder made the mail an issue. So if you rename the outlook express import folder to something else the import may well go as planned.

How can I get iTunes to play more than one song before stopping?

When I click on a song listed in iTunes, iTunes plays it and then stops. How can I get it to continue and play the next song, and then the next..
Thanks

I just found the answer. iTunes will play consecutively the songs that are checked, if Controls --> Repeat Off is checked. When I asked the question I had unchecked all songs.

How can I see incoming messages in more than one computer?

I live in two locations, when I open incoming messages on one computer , these messages do not appear on the other computer anymore. There must be an option to see the same messages on the other computer too?

one option is to use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol IMAP] . Basically your e-mail will remain on the server of your e-mail provider and you have access to them with TB via IMAP.
Other than that, a second option comes to my mind but it's definately much more complicated, less comfortable and I haven't tried it myself .Try this only if IMAP is NOT an option for you.
You may syncronise the TB E-mail database with some cloud storage provider (like dropbox) on a regular bases.
A good file sync tool is FreeFileSync (Open Source). The problem with this syncing method is that it can't look into e-mails and which side changed/deleted/etc. what. There are various disadvantages here which I can't get into more detail here. Better use IMAP.

ITunes music on more than one computer

I just bought a new 24" iMac and I currently have a mac book laptop. All of my music is on my laptop and I would like to have it on my new iMac as well. If I get the music on both of my computers is it logical to think my ipod will keep both computers up to date. In other words... if I purchase new music on my iMac will my ipod sync it to my laptop. I am assuming both computers can be authorized for all of my music.
Thanks in advance for any help!
24" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

If both computers are authorized to play that music, you can use the iPod to transfer the music between them.

How do I get Firefox to display more than one web site that I am developing using Localhost command?

I write the html code for the four web sites I develop and the one I maintain. I want to view the sites before I put them on the internet. I am able to do this with only one of the five. What, if anything, to I have to change in the browser to allow me to do this? I have edited the host file to include the names of the files on my computer of each of the sites. What should I do now?

You'd like to be able to access each site with its own locally-hosted url, correct? (for example- http://localhost1/, http://localhost2/ etc, )? That's a ''server'' setting, rather than a browser one.
How it works will depend on what software you are running to serve the pages. ''Apache'', for example, uses [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/ Virtual Hosts] (and in this case, specifically [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/name-based.html Name-based Virtual Hosts] ). There's usually an example in the configuration file to experiment with (be sure to back it up first).

Getting digital copy on more than one computer

My son got a DVD for Christmas with a digital copy. He put it on his computer using itunes. Can I also download the movie to my computer using itunes since it is an authorized computer on the account? I don't want to try to download it and end up paying for it again.

The problem is he has a Mac and I have a PC. How can I copy it? It's copy protected so I don't think he can burn a new DVD from it.

Unable to manually manage music on more than one computer

Recently i had some problems with my iphone so i decided to delete all the music and start over again, i enabled the manually manage music in my work pc and then drag and drop my songs into the iphone library, all happened fine, then when i got home i connected my iphone to my laptop and i noticed that the manually manage music are unchecked and my iphone´s library dont allow me to add or delete songs! do anyone knows what´s the problem? i have the same itunes version wich is the latest on both computers, this is the 11.1.3.8
I will appreciate any help!

If you have iTunes on your work computer, it IS possible, I'm just not sure if it's possible with a shuffle. :/ I don't have one.
What you'd do with a 'regular' iPod is turn it to manual, then you can access/play the music from iTunes.
You may want to check the shuffle forum to see if it's possible with that particular iPod.
Good luck!

Can you download music from more than one computer?

My sister and I both have ipod minis and is there a way for me to download some of her music from her to computer to my ipod mini as well as from my own?

Set the iPod mini to manage music manually, and you can then transfer music to it from multiple computers.

Installing Lion on more than one computer

Does anyone know how to install the Lion OS on more than one computer? I downloaded and installed Lion on my iMac today, but want to do the same for my other two computers as well. Is there a way to find the DMG file and save it onto a flash drive instead of downloading it all over again? I searched using Spotlight and could not find the downloaded file anywhere.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

If the iMac was already updated, then the installer is no longer on the computer.
The easiest way to do this on your other Macs is to sign in to the Mac App Store using the same Apple ID as on the iMac, find Lion and click "INSTALL." You will not be charged again.

You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. However, you manage music with more than one computer.. See:
