How do I merge two seperate HD's into one.  I upgraded my MBP to an SSD and installed a hybrid in the optical bay.

I intially planned to use my cloned system on the SSD and the Hybrid to be used as backup, media, whatever else.  But I only had access to certain program on another MBP and so I cloned it to a partition on the Hybrid.  So basically I have two seperate computers each isolated from one another.  I have two startup disks, 2 seperate everything.  And I have to be careful when syncing my dropbox and a myriad of issues when swithing from one to the other.  So does anyone have any questions about this or any suggestions as to how I can merge the 2 so that I can run the initial configuration I desired.  Oh and the performance between the Momentus XT hybrid and the Intel-520 ssd are getting closer and closer as time goes by that I almost don't notice a difference, grnted my MBP is only backward compatible to 3gbs so I don't get the performance of the 6gbps capabilities of the intel.  But GD its awesome. 
I really would appreciate any suggestions.  the machine is 15" MBP mid 2010 with 10.8.2.

I don't know that copying them from an external would be any different than doing it internally because they are physically seperated.  I have tried many different configurations.  It won't let me erase or format the SSD so that I can clone the Hybrid to it. Which is what I prefer to do but I haven't boot from the recovery or an external and tried doing it that way.  But even then I have to boot from each seperately, what is holding me up is I've lost both product keys to office and adobe ms 6 due to the fact of not only having them so long and always upgrade using dmg's as well as upgrading os's so often.  So those programs are only available on one computer. Which happens to be on a seperate internal disk.  A slick unix script would be nice.  I am just really tired of trial and error and would like to get back to using my stuff.

  • How do I combine two or more pictures into one?

    How do I combine two or more pictures into one?

    I found out how to do what I wanted and I'm giving my steps in hopes that it might help someone else.  I wanted to put several photos from a file onto a new blank image.  This is what I did.
    1.  Create a blank page.    File/New/ Blank File.   Put in the size.  I used 8x10.
    2.  Bring the photo  you want to use into Elements as you always do. It will list along the top next to the blank sheet.
    3.  Choose SELECT (top of screen)/ Select All.
    4.  Choose Edit/Copy   or Command "C"
    5.  Click on the Blank File.   Chose Edit/Paste  or Command "V"
    6.  Click on Image/ Transform or Command "T".  There should be a dotted line around your pasted image.  You can then move and adjust the image to how you want it.  When finished, press the check-mark on lower right of photo.
    7.   Repeat this with all the photos you want on the new blank file.
    8.  You will see on lower right of Elements,  the background layer and as many layers as you have photos.  These layers need to be permanently placed on the background layer. Go to Layers and press Merge Visible.  This will merge all layers to the background.
    9.  Save as and you are done.

    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • Merge two Livecycle PDF files into one PDF?

    I have a new requirement where I need to take two different PDF forms I'm producing from LiveCycle and merge them together into a single PDF. 
    I have heard that Adobe Acrobat cannot edit LiveCycle files, does anyone know if it is possible to merge two Livecycle PDFs together into a single file?

    Hello Clay,
    This is not available in the standard SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe solution.
    What I can recommend is:
    Step 1: retrive the data back from the PDF files using the getData functionality of the ADS.
    Step 2: Render a new PDF file. The template of this new PDF should contain the template of both original PDF files.
    This should work if both of the original PDF files were created by the SAP Systems ADS.
    Best regards,
    Dezso

  • How do I combine two I-tunes libraries into one?

    I have an I-tunes library and my daughter has her own.  We would like to combine them into one account.  She has her own account and log in a well as her own appple ID.  I also have my own but seems would make things easier to have one so we can share all of the apps and other things.    Instead of buying the same apps for my phone and then for her ipod touch it would make sense to have it all on one account

    Time flies Goldie.
    I'm back with MAC's any luck with merging.  I have a hundred's of CD's waiting to be downloaded to a hard drive but I just don't trust the constant updating with I-tunes.  The cloud is probably the solution and home sharing.

  • How to merge two seperate free space into single partition/volume???

    Hey guys :)
    Please help me on merging two unallocated free spaces in my internal harddisk. I already tried searching for options in diskmanagement but nothing found to do that. The harddisk has two free spaces(1gb and 50.78gb) now, I want to merge them into single one
    and finally as a single parition/volume. Is there any other method or should use any other third party tool?
    I really wanted to attach a screenshot but sadly microsoft couldn't allow me.

    JAJ
    You need a third party tool like Easeus Partition Manager
    Wanikiya and Dyami--Team Zigzag
    Sure I'll try that. Thank you very much :)
    But it is really sad to say that it is real drawback of windows as it doesn't have its own choice in diskmanagement utility.

  • How do I get my music from my account on old computer to new computer? And how do I have two seperate itunes accounts on one computer?

    I had my music on my itunes on my old computer (pc), and need to move it to my husband's computer. My husband and I both have iphones and want to keep using our seperate itunes accounts on one computer, as we both have our own media set up on our accounts. I had burned my music from the old computer onto discs and imported onto the new one...works in the library but I can't put them into playlists, which means I can't put the music on my iphone. As for using two seperate accounts on one computer, it was suggested to me to make another profile on windows (vista), and use the second account on that profile. I did that and have had such a frustrating time trying to get this to work. I don't know if I've done something wrong, but it's just headache after headache. Somehow my apps even ended up on my husband's account? Also, how can we share music between our profiles? It seems ridiculous that we should have to buy an album twice just because we have to different accounts. I would be willing to create a third joint account with my husband, but only if we can still have our own music, apps, etc, and can somehow transfer the music we have to this new account...if possible.  Suggestions please???? I'm so close to pulling out my hair over this!!!

    You'll need to copy the music currently on your iPod to your new PC and into iTunes first before you can sync it to the new iPod.

  • How do you use two seperate iTunes accounts on one computer?

    My wife and I have seperate iTunes accounts and content. We both have an iPod and iPhone. We purchased a new Macbook Pro because our other computers were fried. How do we both use the same computer to access our own iTunes accounts and sync our own iPhone and iPod to it to update our respective toys? I have already transferred all my content to the new laptop and am able to sync my iPhone and iPod. Now I just need to figure out how to get my wife's content on this new laptop so she can sync her iPhone and iPod. Does anyone know how to do this? I assume this is a common request.

    one option would be to create a separate user account for your wife. click here to learn "how to share music between different accounts on a single computer"
    another option would be to authorize iTunes to use/play content purchased with both your iTunes accounts.that's basically very easy. all you have to do is +log out+ of one account (click on the account name in the Store window and select +sign out+ from the pop-up dialog) and into the other, and then they will both be authorized. (be sure to just *log out*, not de-authorize ).

  • Combining two seperate pagemaker files into one pagemaker file.

    We are having done two seperate pagemaking files in two different systems. We are in need to combine/join these two pagemaker publications into one pagemaker publication. How to do this?

    There's several options.
    1. If the two publications are on different PCs, then create a PDF of each and combine them in Acrobat.
    2.Use the Book utility to combine the files when you print.  They need to be on the same PC.
    3. If the two publications are on the same PC (with all the necessary fonts and images), and the files are small, i.e. no more than a few pages, then open both publications in PM.  Tile the two publications side by side.  Add the required number of new pages to the first document, and have "New page 1" opposite "Page 1" of the second publication.
    With the pointer tool selected in the second publication, click Edit - Select All.  Then quickly drag all the objects acroos to "New Page 1" in the first publication.
    Do the same for the remaining pages - hence the requirement for not having too many pages.
    Use File - Save As to save the first publication with a new filename.  All links to images will be preserved.
