HT1203 Why is it that music cannot be shared between two people with apple devices over wifi or Bluetooth ?

With other mobile devices it has always been easy to transfer music from one friend to the the other via Bluetooth so why is so hard to transfer music from one apple iPhone to another via wifi or Bluetooth ?

It would seem that Apple have chosen not to implement general file sharing over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth as a security measure. That said. you have no rights to transfer your music (licensed to you) to your friend. They should purchase (licence) their own copy.

  • I bought music on my ipod touch. Why is it that I cannot put that music on my other ipod(s)?

    Hello,
    I bought music on my iPod touch. Why is it that I cannot put that music on my other Ipod(s)?
    I downloaded my IPodTouch to my computer with no problems. I tried to drag the music I bought on my IpodTouch to other playlists on my computer and it did not let me. It refuses to let me even try to drag it to my computer music Library. It shows on my IPodTouch, but like I said, it will not let me drag it to my other Ipod(s) or even to my Music Library on my computer. Please help me.

  • Why is it that I cannot see my iMessages from my iPad on my iPhone?

    Why is it that I cannot see my iMessages from my iPad on my iPhone? I have both on the iCloud, both have iMessage on, and on my iPhone I show to receive at both my cell phone number and my email address that is linked to my iPad. Any suggestions?

    If its SD DV, check the following:
    · Camera is set to the proper input
    · In FCP, Canvas is set to RGB and sized to "Fit to Window or smaller
    · View->External Video is set to "All Frames"
    Do a search for Shane's Stock Answers ... I belive #8 covers this question.

  • Why is it that I cannot uninstall because the program was from an unidentified developer

    Why is it that I cannot uninstall a program because the program was from an unidentified developer?

    Might have an answer for you if I understood what you are asking.
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
        1. AppZapper 2.0.1
        2. AppDelete 3.2.6
        3. Automaton 1.50
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash 1.8.2
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
      10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

  • Why is the Beats Music app only available on the 3rd Gen Apple TV? This is very irritating.

    Why is the Beats Music app only available on the 3rd Gen Apple TV? This is very irritating.

    Apple TV 2 has reached the end of it's iOS updates. there really won't be any more and the focus will be mainly on the Apple TV 3.
    You can sell the ATV2  for a few hundred dollars on eBay because the ATV2 is special in a way that I can't mention here. Use the money to buy an ATV3.
    I am in no hurry to do so myself and will continue using my ATV2 for some time.

    I enabled computer home sharing between my fiance's apple computer and my windows computer, so I now can play his music on my computer; however, I am making playlists for our wedding and am unable to transfer any of his songs to my playlists. How can I do this?

    Thanks
    Are you sure that if I use my windows log in rather than my husbands, then open itunes it won't delete all his hundreds of songs and overwrite with mine? 
    I want to maintain my own apple ID login and he wants his but without losing his songs.....
    how do i transfer the content of my itunes including apps and songs to the new computer.  There doesn't seem to be an easy explanation on here. Do I just plug my iPhone in and it will all transfer?

  • Help With Ora-19046:Out-of-line table cannot be shared by two top-level tab

    Hi!
    My tutor asked me to store and query the xml files in a "native" way in xml db. First I tried to register the schemas on which those xml files are based. There are about 30 of schemas asscociated with each other, and I have to use "FORCE" to register them , like this:
    BEGIN
    DBMS_XMLSCHEMA.registerSchema(
    'http://www.isotc211.org/gmd/metadataEntity.xsd',
    bfilename('ISOGMD', 'metadataEntity.xsd'),
    TRUE,
    TRUE,
    FALSE,
    TRUE,
    TRUE);
    END;
    Then no tables are created automaticly. And when I wanted to create a XML table based on thses schemas manually, it proped the error: ORA-19046:Out-of-line table cannot be shared by two top-level tab. This has confused me for about a week. Does anyone know what's wrong with the registration? Waiting eagerly on line! Thanks!

    First of all, i create a "filename.txt" that contains all my schemas' names. the names are:
    acquisitionInformation.xsd
    applicationSchema.xsd
    basicTypes.xsd
    catalogues.xsd
    citation.xsd
    codelistItem.xsd
    constraints.xsd
    temporalTopology.xsd
    topology.xsd
    units.xsd
    uomItem.xsd
    valueObjects.xsd
    xlinks.xsd
    there are 72 schemas. Then I register them using "force":
    GRANT EXECUTE ON utl_file to fld;
    create table test (
    fld1 VARCHAR2(50));
    declare
    isto_file utl_file.file_type;
    fp_buffer varchar2(4000);
    begin
    isto_file := utl_file.fopen('MYXMLDIR', 'filename.txt', 'R');
    loop
    begin
    utl_file.get_line (isto_file , fp_buffer );
    insert into test values(fp_buffer);
    Exception
    when no_data_found then
    exit;
    end;
    end loop;
    utl_file.fclose(isto_file);
    end;
    declare
    cursor my_cursor is select fld1 from test;
    v_name varchar2(50);
    begin
    open my_cursor;
    loop
    fetch my_cursor into v_name;
    dbms_xmlschema.registerSchema(
    schemaurl=>v_name,
    schemadoc=>bfilename('MYXMLDIR',v_name),
    local=>TRUE,
    gentables=>true,
    force=>true,
    csid=>nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')
    exit when my_cursor%NOTFOUND;
    end loop;
    close my_cursor;
    end;
    at last, when I check the types generated during registration, I found that only a small number of types are automatically generated. When I try to create table manually ( based on certain element of one schema), it props errors, sometimes "31079. 00000 - "unable to resolve reference to %s \"%s\"" ", sometimes other errors.
    If I manually register them one by one from the base schema, then the registeration fail at some point. this is the script:
    BEGIN
    DBMS_XMLSCHEMA.registerSchema(
    'geometryAggregates.xsd',
    bfilename('XSD', 'geometryAggregates.xsd'),
    TRUE,
    TRUE,
    FALSE,
    TRUE);
    END;
    ERRORS
    22881. 00000 - "dangling REF"
    Is that something wrong with my schemas? I wonder how can i paste them here. there are 72 files.......

  • I cannot pair my Macbook Air (Yosemite) with my iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth.

    I cannot pair my Macbook Air (Yosemite) with my iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth. It is recognising the devices but 'connection unsuccessful'

    That is correct.  Macs do not pair to iPhones, iPads, etc.
    However, pairlng is not required to get Handoff to work.  Both devices must have Bluetooth on, but they need not (indeed cannot) be paired.
    OS X Yosemite: Pick up where you left off with Handoff
    You must be using supported devices:

  • I am looking to create an app that add widgets to iphone, is it ok with apple and what shall I do?

    I am looking to create an app that add widgets to iphone, is it ok with apple and what shall I do?

    In iOS, those would have to be standalone apps due to the sandboxed design of iOS and its use of memory and resources.  There is already an abundance of clock, weather and calendar apps in the app store.  You can certainly make some of your own, but just realize yours would have to offer something really different or unique to stand out in the crowd of similar apps.

    i cant imagine that we are facing this kind of issues with Apple, it is the 2nd time i am writing to you with no reply. i bought my iPhone 6 from Dubai on March first then it stopped working on March 12th, i gave it to you authorized re-seller here in Egypt and they replaced it in 24 days ... after another 6 days the new phone ALSO STOPPED working, i went back to them they said sorry we will replace it again.
    i really cant imagine that i paid more than US$850 2 months ago and until now i didn't use the mobile for more that 2 weeks.
    i really appreciate your help and response

  • Why do we not receive 5 gb of free cloud storage space for the multiple Apple devices my wife and I have purchased?

    Why do we not receive 5 gb of free cloud storage space for the multiple Apple devices my wife and I have purchased?  Seems only fair.

    logical. fair. I can understand the confusion in policy  as another fine cloud service - DropBox - has a different model for increases in free storage amounts for one account = evangelism. As many policies as there are services probably.
