How do I make a separate library for myself?

My husband has already set up itunes on our computer for himself with a full library of his songs. We listen to completely different music and when I start downloading tunes, I don't want them to be mixed in with his music. I tried searching this, but nothing was very clear to me. I'm thinking it must be possible to have a separate library for me, but can anyone tell me how? Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Hello, Welcome to discussions.
The easiest method would be to create a new Windows user, So you both have your own Windows user account you can log into. This acts like a second computer in a way. You have your own desktop, your own programs customized to your needs. This includes iTunes.
When setting up iTunes in the new user. Tell it not to search for WMV or MP3 files. This will ensure you have a blank iTunes Library. And then from there you can start building it.
You can do a search on www.google.com or www.yahoo.com or any other search engine you use for key word " creating new windows user on Vista " without the quotation marks. And it will give you a list of quite a few sites with step by step instructions and pictures on creating a new user.

  • How do I: Make a smaller library for my laptop?

    I would like to make a smaller "highlights" library on my MacBook based on my full library on my imac. Any suggestions on how best to do this? I'd like to keep my folder structure, and I'm ok adding a special keyword for it. I figure it will be some sort of smart playlist, export then import it on the laptop, but wanted to ask the pros on here first.

    You can "sorta/kinda if you squint" do this with music now. Use iTunes 9 on all the machines, and enable Home Sharing. For my setup, the iMac holds everything, and on the MacBook I can click on the Home Share, browse the library, and then "import" it to that machine locally (there is an import button, and you can even set it to only show items not already on the non-master machine). Anything I buy on the MacBook is automatically synced back to the iMac. Its not completely automated, but it is leaps and bounds better than what there was before (cause there was nothing). This does work with videos and Apps though.

    Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
    This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
    On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
    Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data.  Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
    Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.

  • HT201364 how do i make more space available for mavericks update?

    how do i make more space avaialble for mavericks update

    One place to check is the hidden Library folder under your user account. From the Finder Menu click Go > Go To Folder > Enter: ~/Library/
    IF YOU ARE UNSURE DO NOT DELETE SOMETHING
    You may be able to find refrences to old applications that you have uninstalled. There is another folder inside that one called Application Support (~/Library/Application Support/). Same idea goes here, old software folders can be safely blown away. Don't forget to empty the Trash!
    Bonus Points?
    You can use the same technique on the /Library folder aswell!
    Happy Deleting!

  • I just downgraded from iTunes 11 back to itunes 10.7.5. My iTunes is now working from one of the Previous Music Librabies. How can I make that previous library my current library? Also, I can't empty iTunes 11 frome the trash. Why not?

    I just downgraded from iTunes 11 back to itunes 10.7.5. My iTunes is now working from one of the Previous Music Librabies. How can I make that previous library my current library? Also, I can't empty iTunes 11 frome the trash. It tells me iTunes 11 is still open. What's going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    Without providing details on exactly what you did it is hard to provide an answer.  It's like me saying, "This chocolate cake I made tastes wrong," but not providing the recipe for review.  Maybe it was the garlic in that particular recipe.
    If iTunes is successfully using a previous library which you rename to iTunes Library.itl then that is now the current library.
    Have you restarted your computer and then tried emptying the trash?

    how can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my website's home screen

    You can do this using a meta refresh but the problem is you have to add it to the html file for the page very time you publish changes.
    A better way is to create a splash page and upload it to the server outside of the folder produced by iWeb. Example HERE.
    The meta refresh is added to the head section of the html file...
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="32;url=http://www.domain.about.com/Page-Name.html">
    The delay time in seconds is marked in blue and the URL to the redirect page is in red.

  • How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • 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.

    How do I make multiple text bold, for example scene headings or character names?

    You can do that by editing the template of the document.
    Open the document, go to Edit->Template. A dialog will launch which will have element types on the left and it's properties on the right.
    Select Scene Heading(or Character name) on the left. On the right, go to 'Text' tab and click on Bold checkbox.
    Press OK.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I make a "property node" for a VI?

    Hello!
    If I add a boolean button on the FP then I am able to make a property node for that button in the Block Diagram. But how can I make a property node for a VI? I have several VI:s an that together is one program. What I need to do is to verify what kind of VI some of my VI:s is. I need to verify if it is .exe or .vi-file, and if it is .exe then I want to disable run, abort, run continuously bottons otherwise not. I have hard that this is possible to do programmaticaly but I can´t figure out how. I am aware that I could do that manually in the File->vi properties->customize->windows appearance but theese choises makes it last forever.
    I want to be able to stop and run and everything if it is a .vi file, but if it is .exe-file then all those buttons should be disabled.
    Anyone have an example on this?
    In an other message at this Forum I read "You can use the `Front Panel Window. Allow Runtime PopUp`" property to disable run-time shortcuts menues programmaticaly, but still I dont know how to create this property node.
    /Amir

    You really shouldn't open a new thread. If you don't understand something, ask and we will explain it.
    Like I said in the other thread, you can check if you are running in LV or an EXE by using the Application>>Kind property. To get it, place a property node (from the Application Control palette) on the diagram, click it and find the property.
    To set the properties for the VI, place another property node, right click it and select Select Class>>VI Server>>VI. You should have the properties you want under Front Panel Window.
    To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try searching this site and google for LabVIEW tutorials. Here and here are a couple you can start with. You can also contact your local NI office and join one of their courses.
    In addition, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide and the LabVIEW user manual (Help>>Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf). I believe chapter 17 of the user manual explains about programmatic control of VIs.
