HT1364 How do you switch media to different computers?

If my previous computer's hard drive broke, how will i be able to get my media from my iPod onto my new computer. It says my iPod cannot sync with my new computer because my iPod can't be synced with two iTunes at a time. And yes, my new computer is authorized already. The new itunes says that i can only have purchased items on the itunes account, but no other media, for instance downloaded cd's.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
The ipod is not a backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do you transfer music from different computers to your ipod?

    I have two computers that are configured to my ipod. Because one is usually in the shop being fixed I have a problem when I purchase music on the secondary computer and want to transfer it to the main computer. It will transfer to my main computer through a cd but it requires that locate on the harddrive. It will play on the computer once I locate it but it won't tranfer to the ipod when syncing. Any suggestions?

    If the music you want to move from computer A to computer B is on your iPod the job is easy. There are free and shareware programs that transfer music from the iPod to your computer. Check out your favorite download site.

    How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I assume you do mean a different account and not simply a different iTunes library. Unfortunately, in order to switch accounts, you would need to log out and log in to the second account.

  • How do you set up two different ipads on one computer ?

    I purchased a new ipad for my wife and want to get her started but we both use one imac as our desktop system.  How do you set up two different uses on one computer.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Other options not covered in the article:
    1) You can plug both in under the same computer username and same iTunes Apple ID and give each device it's own name. You should be able to manage them as separate devices with different media, apps and screen layouts. All of your media would be in a common pool, though.
    2) Under one computer username, you can login and logout of two different iTunes Apple IDs. This option is cleaner with two computer usernames but it can be done with one.

  • How do you set up a different ipad on same computer with different itunes library

    I am trying to update a clients ipad (who does not have access to internet at his residence) on my personal computer.  When I open up itunes with his apple ID, I continue to get my itunes library information.  I don't want to mix my information with his information.  How do you set up a different i pad/itunes on the same computer?  What I need to do is update the version of his i pad as his i pad is version 4.2.1.  Thank you

  • How do you switch output sounds   set to my external monitor that is connected via HDMI.

    How do you switch output sounds   set to my external monitor that is connected via HDMI. 

    Hello gail from Ajijic,
    If you'd like to change the audio output of your Mac, you can do so by accessing the Sound preferences in your System Preferences.
    Before you start, open the Output pane of Sound preferences (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Sound, then click Output).
    Choose a sound output device
    From the list of sound output devices, select the one you want to use. All sound output devices available to your Mac are listed, including the computer’s internal speakers, devices plugged into your computer’s sound port (), USB speakers, and AirPlay devices.
    For any device plugged into the computer’s sound port, choose Headphones.
    OS X Yosemite: Adjust your computer’s sound output settings
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • How do you switch off WiFi - is there an easy way?

    Hi I am coming from SPV MS Smartphones. My mate has got a new one with WiFi in, and it has a lovely shortcut menu to switch in ll WiFi, BT etc.
    How do you switch off the WiFi on the N80, I read in the manual that "WiFi is always on" surely this cannot be true, Nokia cannot be that daft as this would kill the battery!!
    Am I right in saying that the 4 little squares shows that WiFi is on?
    cheers
    My N80 is on Orange purchased in June 2006 firmware v 3.0617.06 03-05-2006
    Cheers
    Andy

    hi there...
    yes u can turn off wifi , menu-tools-settings-connection-wireless lan , from there u can choose whether u want ur wlan to be active or inactive , active gives u options of searching for available networks for ur set time , from every min to every 10 mins ,just choose never in show availability option , tht basically stops wlan to search for available networks automatically . incase if u want to search for available networks , u can do tht easily by going to menu-connectivity-connection manager -available wlan ..
    hope this answered ur question ,
    thnx..

  • How do you switch between 64-bit and 32-bit Java configuration?

    I've downloaded the latest Java plug-in for an online service, but when I go to run the service on Safari or Firefox browsers, I get a message that 32-bit Java is needed and my machine is running 64-bit.  How do you switch back and forth?

    Similar concern here. No 64 bit version. I purchased the Photoshop CS5 downloadable upgrade. I  have installed the program but only see the 32 bit version. Image  / Mode shows 8, 16 and 32 bit versions and no 64 bit.
    Start Programs offers only a single version of Photoshop which based on the splash screen is 32 bits. Did I miss something during the install?

  • How do you switch language for iMovie?

    After installing new version of iMovie, I noticed I chose my home country instead of USA, so that the language is not English but I want subtitles in my movies such as trailers to be English. How do you switch the language? Is there any way that I can install it again without any cost?

    the iApps come multi-lingual and should use the language your System is set to ...
    but there's a free tool, Language Switcher, which allows to set the interface language of any app to any avail language - in use here, to create English Interface screenshots on my German MacOS

  • HT2477 Just bought a Mac book and the set up is with the Voice over key commands,how do you switch this off as it is painfull to use and use the scroll pad

    Just bought a Mac book and the set up is with the Voice over key commands,how do you switch this off as it is painfull to use and use the scroll pad?

    It's the button (key) that is labelled Control.
    Each of the modifier keys and similar keys has its own symbol; this makes listing command keys easier to do. The Command key is usually the only key which has its symbol printed on the key. If you open Keyboard Viewer (in the Input menu, the one which displays the flag in the main menu bar), you can see what symbol refers to which key.

  • How do you devide media into clips?

    Have not used Final Cut in a while and I'm lost. How do you seperate media into clips?
    Thanks

    Step 1: Import or capture the media in the proper format so it will match your Sequence settings.  Once media is imported, it is defined as a clip no matter how long its duration.
    Step 2: Double click a clip in the Browser to load it into the Viewer.  Set an IN point and an OUT point on the clip in the Viewer for the first section you want to use.
    Step 3: Edit the section into the Timeline where you want it to go.
    Step 4: repeat step 3 as needed.
