HT3819 can you select the items you don't want your family to be able to see?

I want to get some of my dad's songs he has on his ipod without buying them so i was going to try using the home sharing but i dont want to share all of my songs. Before i turn home sharing on i would like to know if i can select the items i want and don't want my family to be able to see

I really do appreciate everyone's input to my question. I guess what I wanted to do, and how it can be done aren't as simple as I had hoped. But I know what will work now. Thank you again and have a nice holiday season.

  • Firefox fails to import history, cookies, favourites etc. from opera; cookies etc. are not listed in the space where you can select the items you want to import any idea how this comes? thanks!

    In the importing operation Firefox detects Internet Explorer and Opera as installed browsers. When i select Internet Explorer cookies, history, favourites etc. are listed in a box where you can select the items you want to import in Firefox. When i select Opera no items are listed that can be imported. Any idea how this comes?

    Hi,
    I think that what you are searching be in Tools >> Options >> Privacy >> On Firefox will: change to "Use custom settings for history" then Button Show Cookies will be allowed and you will see the cookies in your browser in the next window
    If you uncheck "Accept cookies from sites", probably the sites that need cookies will alert you that you need active the storage cookies

  • I'm trying to restore my 3GS but can't remember the password, I don't want to do a complete restore as I'll lose all my data. HELP!!

    I'm trying to restore my 3GS from a previous back-up point on my PC, but I can't remember the password and if I wrote it down I can't find it. I don't want to do a complete factory restore as I'll lose all my data (phone numbers etc) and I still won't be able to access the restore data. Can anyone help?

    If you forgot the passcode for the lock screen, follow this article, connect in recovery mode iOS: Unable to update or restore and restore:  iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    If you can't remember the password for your encrypted backup, you'll have to start all over again:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    iTunes and encrypted backups
    In the iTunes Summary screen, select "Encrypt iPhone backup" if you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a padlock icon, and a password is required to restore the information to iPhone. You may want to write down the password for your backup and store it in a safe place. If you use a Mac, when you set a password you can select to store the password in the keychain. With iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the iOS keychain backup to a new device if you encrypt the backup.
    Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
    If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

  • How can I delete the apps I don't want to update, from the App Store Notification list?

    The number of apps, waiting to be updated is growing, and growing!  I want that number to go away.  I am not going to update the ones I don't want.
    How can I clear the list, so I only see the number of ones I have not looked at - the new notifications?

    You can't clear the notifications unless you udate the apps. There is nothing that you can do about it - unless you delete every trace of those apps everywhere - in iTunes, your iPad, all iDevices .... and I still don't think that totally eliminates the updates. If you download an App and it is tied to your ID, the notifications will appear somewhere - maybe not on the iPad - but in iTunes at least.

  • I can't select the US area code i want. What gives...

    I can't select the area code I want for my state. Im trying to get an Atlanta 404 number right now but only albany 229 numbers show up for Georgia. What gives SKYPE?

    TThe separate section at the bottom with the grayscale bar is not color. That's that alpha channel control and adjusts the transparency of the clip. Use the color swatch to access the Apple color picker.

  • I just started up with my IPod, I download music to my library and I accidently changed the artists name in an entire category.  I can't figure out how to undo it. I read the edit help stuff but I can't select the item I need to edit

    I just started using my IPod and I downloaded my library.  I accidently changed the artist names for an entire genre category and I can't undo it.  I read all the edit help stuff and I either can't select items to edit or I'm an idiot and I can't figure it out.  I keep trying and I get a pop up that asks me if I want to change multiple items.

    Did you ever resolve the iCloud problem.I am in the same position and its driving me mad!!! If you have a link to an solution I would appreciate it.

  • How do I sign out of iCloud on my iPad, I can only select the disable feature and I want to get the software back to pre iOS.8. My account tracker app will not sync now because the update was installed.

    I Always down load the updates but now I find that my account App does not sync. I cannot seem to be able to revert my software back to the pre IOS 8.0 update.
    on the settings page , I am only able to switch off the I cloud drive and not really signing off from the account.
    I Would appreciate you advice.

    I used this method yesterday and everything was done:
    On your iOS device, open Settings menu then choose the Game Center menu.
    Tap on the Apple ID (yellow line in the above image) menu then choose Sign Out.
    You have done.

  • HT1414 How do I sync my device to a different device's library?  Do I have to restore to factory settings and start over? Or, is there a simpler process where i can just select the library/device that I want to sync with?

    Is there an easier way other than restoring to factory settings and starting over?

    Open itunes, connect ipod, select what you want, sync.
    No need to restore.  Just sync.  It will erase the current content and replace with the content of the new computer.

  • I scanned an item from my computer to my documents and it said then scan was complete. However, when I searched my documents the Item was not there. Where can I find the item?

    I scanned an Item from my computer to my documents. The scan was completed.  However, when I searched in my documents, the Item was not there.
    Where can I find the item scanned?

    Most scanners default to Pictures folder or the Desktop.
    If you select All My Files and Arrange by Date Added you should be able to find the file.
    If you turn on Show Path bar and Show Status bar for your Finder Window under View in the Menu bar, when you select the file you will see the path of the file in the bottom of the Finder window.

  • I can't seem to open (view) my photos.  I get an error message that says "the file couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it. To view or change permission, select the item in the finder and choose File. Get info."

    Try the following:

    2 - Run Option #1, Repair Permissions.

  • I can get to itunes but when I select anything an error comes up 'your request could not be completed.  The item you've requested is not currently available in the US store'  What is this and how to I fix it?

    no comment

    When I open the store in general (from my PC - Windows Vista), I get a message saying "Your request could not be completed. The item you've requested is not currently available in the Canadian Store."
    On my iPad, Apps opens, but I can't browse new apps listings, but not their details.
    Help?

  • How can I download my issues with Reader's Digest when each time a pop appears and reads " the item you tried to buy is no longer available"?

    I can no longer download my purchased Reader's Digest magazine since August as it requires updating the RD app. So when i try to download the RD app a pop up appears and reads " the item you tried to buy is no longer available". What does this mean and what do I do? I have 2 pending reader's digest issues that needs to be downloaded.

    I don't have an answer for you but it may help to have a look at the "More Like This" section at the far right of this page. Reading those additional threads may get you some idea of the actual issue and how to resolve it. It could be that problems were found with the app and it was temporarily pulled for some reason which may be the reason for the "the item you tried to buy is no longer available" message.

  • TS3297 iTunes puts up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one. How I can clear that messag

    I've been running iTunes on WinXP for years with few problems.  I have all my iTunes files on an external USB drive. I just bought a new PC running Win7, 64-bit.
    I connected the external USB drive to the new PC and installed 64-bit iTunes on it. When iTunes started up, I pointed it at the iTunes directory in the external drive, using Edit > Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Media Folder Location. It showed a progress bar that it was updating the iTunes Library. I signed in and authorized the new machine. I have one spare authorization.
    Then iTunes put up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one.
    When I click OK, the iTunes Store page remains blank, apart from saying "iTunes Store" in the middle of the page.
    I went to "View My Account" and pressed the Reset button to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading items", but that doesn’t fix this particular warning. I also tried Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Warnings and Rest Cache.
    But still, every time I click the “App Store” button in the iTunes Store window, the message appears. If I click the Books, Podcasts or iTunesU buttons, these display normally.  So I’m stuck with being unable to purchase apps, other than through my iPad and iPhone.
    If I move the external drive back to the XP machine, the same thing happens.  If I go to another PC - a notebook running Vista - everything is normal.
    Any idea how I can clear that message?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Further info on my question above.
    I have tried re-validating my credit card, which apparently fixed it for some. 
    I have also tried uninstalling, re-downloading and installing again.
    Neither of these steps fixed the problem.
