How NOT to have ATV purchases sync to computer...

I purchased the ATV mainly so I can utilize it as my main video hard drive, so I want to be able to transfer all of my videos from my computer to the ATV so I can free up space on my computer and be able to watch the videos straight from the ATV rather than have my computer on during viewing... Please help.

Files on the ATV hard drive can only be synced from an iTunes library. If the files are deleted from the library, they will be unsynced (deleted) from the ATV drive. If you want to free up disk space on your computer, your best bet would be to move your library files to an external hard drive or a network drive.

    Water was accidentally poured on my computer and it was completely ruined, I lost everything I had including all of my applications.I have now purchased a new computer and would like to redownload the copy of Photoshop Elements that I purchased last year can I do this? How can I do this? And for crying out loud how do you get to talk directly to a customer service representative?

    Which version of photoshop elements and operating system?

  • Not sure if ATV is synced up...

    Long story short, I accidently erased my hard drive 2 nights ago. Luckily I had a lot of things backed up. When I opened iTunes I noticed all of my playlists were gone. I did import all my songs back into my library but no playlists are listed. The same with ATV. It's not even showing up on the side under Devices like it did.
    When I turn on ATV its still showing my playlists, photos, and music videos. When I open Preferences in iTunes and click on ATV it says its Syncing but I think that is false...its not doing any kind of syncing.
    So I need to figure out how to get my playlists back for my iPod and the same for my Apple TV.
    Any suggestions?

    Not really gonna get your playlists back unless you back them up to (they can be saved off as simple txt files...else you have to remake playlists.
    As for ATV, it has to be repaired with your iTunes library (AppleTV menu, Settings, Computers, tell may need to tell it to forget old computer as you have as far as it is concerned, a new computer since you muffed up the hard drive, then tell it to sync with new libary and it will give you a pin...then go to iTunes with that PIN still on the screen and enter it (should now see ATV in devices menu), click on it to enter pin...you did this long ago when you first got the ATV....then it will erase all on the ATV and you have to resync....sorry,that is the way it is. Playlists as I said were just simple txt files/settings...if you didn't back up, you have to remake.

  • Unable to have iTunes purchases sync to iPod

    I'm fairly new to iTunes, and started buying a few songs and an audiobook through iTunes. When I first purchased them they were on my iPod, but today when I try to charge my iPod to the computer I get the following error message:
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "Nothing at All", were not copied to the iPod because you are not authorized to play them on this computer."
    Has anyone encountered this before? Why does this happen? And how can I get my purchases on my iPod? I have tried the five "R"s to no avail.
    Thank in advance for your help!

    In itunes top menu click on store. Under store it says authorize this computer. Authorize your account to play songs on your computer. If your computer is already authorized, deauthorize it and authorize it again.
    here is the link for some help.

  • Purchase order quantity round up - how not to have it?

    Hi,
    When we create a purchase order for, let's say 2.5 kg of some material, it is getting created saying 3 kg (the price is correct, but the quantity is rounded).
    So, when we send the PO - vendors send up 3 kg instead of 2.5 and it creates problems.
    How can i fix that? I dont want to have any ABAP code developed - i believe there is a standard config piece for that.
    Does anyone know?
    Thanks!

  • Auto-syncing ipod with itunes: how not to have it synced with whole library

    I remember a year ago when I had itunes automatically sync with my ipod, it created a playlist, something along the name of "NAME's iPOD SONGS" or something like that. And then every time i connected my ipod, it would only look into that playlist to see what's been added or removed, and so it would sync only with that folder.
    But now, it wants to sync with my whole library, which doesn't fit on my ipod. How do I make it sync with only a playlist instead?
    Thanks

    Connect your iPod to iTunes
    When it appears click on the iPod icon in the left hand pane
    Select the Music tab
    Near the top of the tab select *Sync Music* & *Selected playlists:*
    Check the playlists you want to include, uncheck those you don't
    Click Apply

  • How not to allow creating purchase orders if there is not info record

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to configure the system in order not to allow saving a purchase order for one material if record info hasn't been created. Right now, if record info for this material and the chosen vendor doesn't exist, the system creates it automatically, but I don't want this to happen.
    I also would like know how  to configure the system in order to show by default last price introduced for this material and vendor by when I create a new purchase order. 
    Thanks in advance,
    Luis.

    One more option, you can use badi ME_DEFINE_CALCTYPE. when there is no inforecord you can reset value of net price area. Here is a sample code we did for a customer;
          SELECT SINGLE INFNR FROM EINE
           INTO LV_INFNR
           WHERE INFNR =  IM_X_NEKPO-INFNR
           AND WERKS = IM_X_NEKPO-WERKS
           AND EKORG = IM_X_NEKKO-EKORG.
          IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
            CH_X_LF_CALCTYPE = 'C'.
          ENDIF.

  • 2 ipads 1 account how not to show wifes purchases on mine

    wife and I have ipads my account is there a way so that her game purchases don"t show on mine

    If you are using the same account then they any apps that she purchases will show in the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPad (and similarly music, films and TV shows will show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store app). Whilst you share the same account then only to stop them showing is to hide them via a computer's iTunes, which will also hide them from Purchased on her iPad (so won't show there if she wants to redownload them) : Hide and unhide purchases in the iTunes Store - Apple Support (on the current version of iTunes the 'x' is invisible, but clicking on the top left corner of an app where it should be should still hide it)
    If you mean that they are automatically downloading on your iPad then turn off 'automatic downloads' in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad - that will stop purchases made on that account on a different device or computer automatically downloading on it.

  • I have recently purchased a new computer and want to move the music i have on my iPod touch to this new computer. Can someone advise me on how to do this?

    help please

    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer.
