I have 2 computers and need help with ITunes I'm New!

I recently bought an iPod mini and have downloaded the iTunes to put music onto my iPod. This is on my main computer. Now I want to carry all of these songs over into my library which is empty onto my labtop and continue to put songs onto it. I have already downloaded iTunes for my labtop and everytime I go to plug in my iPod, iTunes opens automaticly and this message appears The iPod is linked to another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to this iTunes music library and replace all existing songs and playlists on this iPod with those from this library? I click no and this is wear I am at. If you understand could you please help me. Thanks

If you want to use the iPod with more than one computer, you need to change to manual transfer as outlined here.

  • Recently purchased Mac and need help with iTunes

    I recently purchased a Mac (I had Toshiba and used Windows) and went to add new songs to my iPod on my iPhone.  I logged onto my iTunes account, but cannot figure out how to get my new songs that I downloaded onto my iphone.  It keeps bringing up to replace my Library, which I figure will delete all the songs I already have.  How can I get my iTunes Library on my account from my Toshiba to my Mac so I can add new songs?

    The Apple Store will transfer everything from your pc to your new Mac, or you can call Apple support and they will help you move everything, or you can type "move itunes library from pc to mac" into the google search bar.

  • Need Help with iTunes Library in New OS

    Hi.
    I just switched operating systems from Windows XP 32-bit on a spinning drive to Windows 7 64-bit on a solid-state drive.
    I keep my iTunes data on an external drive with the path M:\data\iTunes. I have organize files on, but all the music is in the iTunes folder and not in a music sub-folder.
    When I set the path in the new OS and add the library the files all show up, but about half of the art is missing and none of the music will play because the file isn't where iTunes expects it to be. Podcasts won't play, either, and audiobooks aren't showing up at all..
    I'm thinking this might be happening because iTunes is expecting the music, podcasts, and books to be in the "proper" subfolders.
    Ideas, anyone? How can I fix?

    Select a track and press CTRL+I to Get Info. Look at the location given on the summary tab. It should begin with file://localhost. Where is the file really? In some cases it may be possible to move the folders around so that the media is where iTunes expects to find it.
    Alternatively you could move things into a more typical layout as shown in this diagram on the right.
    And then use my script FindTracks to fix the broken links. I'd suggest you move the iTunes folder to the root of the drive first. See also my post on making a split library portable for background.

  • Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?

    Hi 
    Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?
    How can I change Permissions for the individual users to see specific projects or all projects in project center and to see specific quick launch items?
    For Example: if i have 4 users, A, B, C and D. what i want is:
    User A can see everything and act as a project manager or Admin.
    User B can view all projects in project centre but can change the schedule or resource assignment etc.
    User C can only act as approver of projects and can view all projects in project centre.
    User D can only view specific projects for which permissions are given.
    can i have some expert help in sorting and understanding permission modes... as i was playing with project server mode permissions and can't figure out how to apply the above scenario to set of my user.
    Thanks in Advance
    Cheers

    Hi Ajay,
    Please refer to this link for detailed explanations about PS2013 security model. 
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197638(v=office.15).aspx
    Actually, it will take a couple of days to explain in detail the security model that is a fundamental and tricky aspect of every PS implementation. But basically, you NEVER set permissions for a single user. You have groups in which your insert users. Groups
    define "what users can do". Then you associate groups to a corresponding category. Categories define "what user can see". Thus the association of a group with a category will set "what the user can do on the objects he can see". Then, for more advanced security
    level, you can use the RBS that will consist in "branches" in which you'll insert users. Based on those branches, you'll customize categories to fine-tune what user can see (for projects and resources) depending on the RBS branch and level.
    I'd advice you to start "playing" in a test environment with the default categories/groups that might probably cover your need.
    Concerning your 4 users:
    user A : add him to the "administrator" group. Be careful that you're mentionning either project manager or administrator, which are 2 groups/categories with totally different permissions level.
    user B : basically can see everything and change everything? it could be in the project manager group, assuming that there are no project visibility restrictions on the category via the RBS.
    user C : waht do you mean by "approver"? Workflow approvals? Then it will be the portfolio manager group. Task update or timesheet approval? Then it is another long topic: please refer in the documentation to the "status manager" and "timesheet manager"
    concepts. There are not related to the security model. In a few words, the status manager is the owner of the project plan, is defined for each task and approves tasks updates. The timesheet manager is an attribute defined for each resource in its parameters
    and approves resource timesheet.
    user D : you have to define which permission level must be given to this user. Basically it could be a team member that will see only projects he's in the project team. Note that team member cannot interact with the project plan in another way than submitting
    timesheets and/or tasks updates which must be approved.
    Once more, those are large and complex subjects that require a deep dive into your business model and tons of tests in a test environment.
    Hope this helps.

  • Need help with Itunes Authorization issue

    I've been a Itunes/Ipod user for a couple years. During that time, I've sure spent over $500.00 on Itunes music from the Itunes store for my Ipod. My daugter and I both have Ipods.. There have only been 2 machines with Itunes installed here but I occasionally rebuild my computers to have the latest and greatest hardware for my business.. The other day I backed up all my music and data before rebuilding my machine due to hardware upgrades. Everything went smoothly including importing my purchased music back into Itunes.. The problem is I can't listen to it now. When I try to double click a song I get an error that says "You have already authorized 5 computers with this account. To authorize this computer you must first deauthorize one of the other computers" This isn't possible because the computers aren't around anymore to deauthorize. They were all housed (except 1, my daughters pc) in the same case as I have now.. Please respond...

    The other day I backed up all my music and data before rebuilding my machine due to hardware upgrades.
    okay. you may have ended up with multiple authorisations on that PC due to the system changes. if so the following documents should be of some help with techniques for freeing up authorisations:

  • I need help getting itunes on my new computer. old one crashed

    My old computer crashed, I downloaded iTunes on my new computer and need help getting all of my stuff on it that I had. I did 'home share' to see if that worked, and it didnt.
    Also, on my old computer, when I synced my iPad & my husbands iPod, it didnt sync any music or podcasts, no videos-and i went through each category seperately to sync it and it didnt work. So I can't sync my devices to the new iTunes bc not everything is on there that i have purchased.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comuter for just this occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

  • I need help with iTunes. I just bought a new laptop and I have a few questions

    So I  just bought a new laptop and few days ago. It's an HP. I have the iPhone 4 (8GB). So all my songs from iCloud are on my phone. I want to manually put them on my phone. All of my songs, videos, pictures etc. are on my new laptop. I went to apply the changes on iTunes when I selected "Manually manage music and videos". And a message came up saying "This iPhone is synced with another iTunes library on another PC. Do you want to choose to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?" Under that it says "Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
    So what do I do? I don't want to click sync and loose everything on my phone. I will no longer use the other comuter. I really need help.
    Thank you!

    There are some instructions on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    You should be able to copy iTunes purchased music from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
    If you still have your old computer and you haven't copied your library over form it, then there are also some methods listed on this page about how you could copy it over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - the page refers to music, but I've used the home sharing method to copy apps, films etc between computers.

  • Major Problem Here! I have no idea what to do and need help with OSX

    Hello all, thanks for viewing my topic.
    First of all, I have OSX 10.2.8
    I just got a christmas gift - an Ipod Nano
    I went into my Itunes only to find out that I need Itunes 7.0, but when I went to download it from the site, after running the install, it said I needed OSX 10.3.4
    So, I looked over and over for 10.3.4 only finding I needed 10.3 to run that
    So basically, i'm stuck here. Can I not use my Christmas gift? What do I have to do to get either the newest version of OSX to work with Itunes, or get my new Ipod 4G nano to work with my Itunes. Either solution would be great.
    Thanks

  • Need Help with iTunes and Windows 7

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new Dell laptop and tried to install iTunes for my iPod and iPhone. The first time I tried it out it ran smooth as anything, but if I'm connected to the net things start to go downhill. At my flat in University (no internet connect) it ran fine, but the second I went to the University computer room with my laptop, iTunes wouldn't open.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed several times now, but obviously dont want to have to do this again and again...
    Can anyone please help?
    Thank you in advance

    but the second I went to the University computer room with my laptop, iTunes wouldn't open.
    What security software are you running on the PC, Dan? (Firewall, antivirus, antispyware?)

  • Need help with Itunes and IPod Shuffle

    I have the latest updates for both Itunes and the IPod Shuffle. I have Itunes on two different PCs, one for the wife and one for myself. I got a new Nano and gave my wife the Shuffle I had and she gave her shuffle to a friend. Everything has worked just fine in the past. When she plugged in my shuffle it asked if she wanted to sync to this PCs library and she said yes. Everything went fine except that no files will copy to the shuffle. It seems to take a VERY long time to sync as well. I tried dragging a song or a playlist but it just sits in sync mode for a long time and then when it's done there is no music on the shuffle. I don't understand the problem. When I attach the shuffle to my PC it asks if I want to sync to the library and everything works, files transfer, no problem. Putting back on her PC and going through the resync business again results in the same situation. Help!

    Hello! no, you haven't stumped the pros. This is a user board. No pros here to stump, just volunteers.
    Shuffles are only designed to sync with one PC. Connect it to your PC and restore it to factory settings. Eject it. When your wife connects it to her PC, it should get recognized.

  • Need help with itune 10.7 and iphone 3gs, ios 6.

    Hi,
    My husband dropped my old computer that my itunes was on. My iphone is 3GS that was using IOS 4.3.2 that it was synced with.
    Got a new computer and downloaded itunes 10.7.
    Was told to backup my iphone on itunes, update my iphone to the latest IOS (6) then to restore from backup.
    My husband did that but he feels something happen with the restore from backup.
    First we can't add any of the app's or songs to the phone or to get it to sync to itunes.
    It will not let us apply only revert.
    Any thoughts?

    Got it to work by following a "More Like This".
    Held down both the home and power buttons until the apple icon showed up.
    Waited until the apple icon went away the pushed the home button and slid to unlock.
    Hooked up the phone to itunes and surprise, iphone and itunes synced up!

  • Just coming from Win and need Help with bootcamp/parallels+general osx stuf

    Well I absolutely love my Mac. I'm just having some problems affording it financially, but when I compare this new MacBook Pro to other like computers, there's a very very small difference in the hardware, and Im usually building laptops that are similiar to this for around 2k anyways. So I'm not 100% sure if I'll keep this or not, and maybe settle for cheaper PC that's under 1.5k (because Apple charges you a 10% open box fee) and buy a mac when I'm in a better position, or just keep this and see what I can do.
    But a few of the things that are making me miss a PC might push me toward a cheaper PC. And so maybe someone here can help me out before I make a decision.
    First off, is there anything that's the equivalent to a disk defragmentor for OSX?
    Second, is the graphics card really powerful in this Macbook 15 inch 2.4 ghz (the newest one)
    Im also having a problem with this keyboard and my favorite game. Basically I need to hold down certain keys (control, alt, shift and space) in order to use skills. But for some reason when I hold down any of these buttons, it only reads it once. So I have to push it every time I'd say, want to heal myself or hit a monster... and that might not seem like a lot but if you play a game for 1 hour + (I'd usually play around 4 hours) it's going to absolutely kill my fingers and make playing the game take a lot longer.
    Now I'm using parallels (the only way to play my game) and whenever I try to install a new KB, because I've found out that the way a KB is wired will determine whether or not you can spam a key or not (Like a cheap USB one wont work, but a more expensive logitech one allows you to) but it either
    1) Crashes Parallels and my Win VM
    or
    2) It sets up whatever kb I use to be used with Mac OSX's drivers which means no matter what the KB is, ctrl alt space and shift cant be spammed.
    I'm also unable to use FRAPS, a PC video capturing program used for games while running parallels. My FPS constantly dips to 0 which lags me in the game, and I can't find a good recording program thats OSX side and that works while Parallels is running (I emailed parallels about what vid they used in their demo but no response)
    Now if use bootcamp, will I have nothing to worry about? Will all of the hardware act like it should act natively on a PC? As in will my nVidia graphics card act like it normally would on a PC instead of it being some kind of virtualized hardware or something like on parallels?
    Thanks for the help guys... 2 weeks to decide on whether or not I keep th is laptop....

    The graphics card is a higher performance GPU than the X1600 in the previous MBP models. As for "really powerful" you don't provide any basis for comparison. Visit the ATI site to find out the specifications for the model.
    Well I understand that much. I just mean as far as a graphics card in general goes, is it strong enough to support a variety of games (both PC and Mac)? This is my first computer without a crappy intergrated graphics card which could barely handle games from the late 1990s.
    As for keyboard shortcuts I'm not sure if you're referring a Mac or a PC game. However, this reference may help. If the game is a Mac version you'll need to contact the game's developer about any problems with how to use the game on a Mac. If you read the Parallels documentation it will explain how to generate any special keyboard characters when in Windows.
    Umm it's not that. Like I first figured out this problem with all electronics in general when I was a kid playing with one of those press and speak books. What I found out was that, let's pretend there were 3 buttons. One was cow going moo, one was a cat meowing and one was a dog barking. If you held down the Cow button and pressed the Cat button, the cow would still Moo. If you held down the Cow and press the dog button, the cow would still moo. However if you pressed and held the cat button, then pressed the cow button the cat would stop meowing, and the moo would override it.
    That same principle applies to keyboards from what I've seen. I know there are some keyboards where I can use the control button and the alt button at the same time, and some keyboard I can't use. I can't blame the game, because there ARE keyboards that work the way I want it to. And I'm not talking about keyboard shortcuts. Pressing Control+Alt isn't a shortcut in a game, just two different commands. Like one is jump, one is attack. In the game you can Jump and Attack with some keyboards, some keyboards only let you jump or attack.
    Another example is if I put my jump key on the letter "a" and if I hold a, I jump over and over until I let go. but if I put jump to my space bar, I jump once then stop. For some reason it won't repeat keys while in a game. Same goes for other buttons, ctrl, shift, and alt.
    Does that make things a little more clear?
    but what I'm going to do is try my mac keyboard on a PC and see if it has the same limitations.
    If Parallels is crashing either you have a faulty installation, your OS X installation is corrupted, or you have not allocated sufficient RAM for the VM. You need at least 2 GBs of installed RAM to use virtualization software and should allocate at least 384 MBs or RAM to Windows XP and 512 MBs to Vista. If you have only 1 GB of RAM installed your system won't be very stable when you try to run Parallels with Windows on 384 or 512 MBs of RAM.
    I have the newest 15 inch which has gigs. And I've tried setting Parallels to both 1 and 512 (windows xp) and I worded the problem wrong. Parallels doesnt crash, parallels runs fine. What happens is Windows XP gets the blue screen of death whenever I try to install a usb device. Since I can't find a logitech keyboard that has drivers/software for a mac, I tried using a Windows one and tried installing it on my XP... and thats when I got the BSOD
    Parallels uses all the native Mac hardware via the virtualization software. No special Mac drivers are required nor special Windows drivers.
    If you cannot run a Windows program in Parallels it's not a problem with OS X. Complain to Parallels.
    It's not that a program isn't running. It's running fine, it's just my FPS gets really low. What I'm trying to figure out is if my graphics card isn't good enough in general, or if it's not good enough to handle parallels and osx and a game with a video capture all at once.
    Boot Camp runs Windows natively on the hardware just as if you were using any other dedicated Windows hardware. "Will I have nothing to worry about?" I don't know. Boot Camp provides the necessary Windows drivers for all currently produced Intel Macs. You can install Windows XP with Service Pak 2 or Vista. Read the Boot Camp documentation to find out more.
    Well I meant will I have nothing to worry about as in, will my graphics card be as effective on my bootcamped win XP as it would be if it was a native XP laptop, or will it be slightly less effective since it was based for a mac intel computer... does that make sense or do I need to reword it?
