On top of that my Mac keeps telling me my start up disc is full and I am deleting stuff like crazy!

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums
It won't be a problem if you delete your extra copies.
I don't download very much to my tv, I do sometimes if I'm in bed but usually I do it from itunes. However if you have not fully downloaded something to the tv it is possible to start the download from itunes as well, you have likely activated 'check for downloads fin itunes in some way, could be by opening itunes, selecting 'check or downloads' from the advanced menu or that you simply have automatically check for downloads set in your prefs and it has checked coincidentally.

  • Is it possible to have more than one copy of a song on my iphone?

    My phone and laptop only indicate that I have one copy of a song.  When I plug into my Apple sync cord for my 2012 Chevy Equinox (equipped for running the phone & ipod) the radio shows several copies of songs.

    You actually can. Start the second IDE using a different user directory:
    sunstudio --userdir /tmp/123456
    Or you can simply start a second debug session in your IDE. It should work as well.

  • Why do I have more than one copy of a TV show on my Mac?

    +Hi everyone, this is my first ever post so go easy on me!+
    I bought an HD TV series via Apple TV. I noticed files were downloading to both Apple TV and my Mac as well - I expect this is normal. I started a sync to clear all but the 5 least recent unwatched HD episodes off the AppleTV as the whole series would not have fit on there. I left the files processing overnight but iTunes crashed at some point so I had to start the sync again. The second sync has now completed and I've got my 5 least recent unwatched episodes on AppleTV (episodes 3-7). So far so good...
    *Now, in iTunes I see that I have two copies of the HD versions of episodes 1,5,6,7,8,9 and 10.*
    *Will it be OK to delete these extra copies from my iTunes library?*
    *Did I do something daft getting it to Sync before all downloads were finished - if so, is there anything I could/should do differently?*
    Any guidance would be much appreciated.

  • Can you have more than one App server on same linux box?

    On a Linux box I want to set up a dev app server and a seperate test app server (on the same linux box).
    Is this possible or do I need 2 linux boxes (1 for dev and 1 for test)?
    Thanks in advance...

    Yes it is possible. I did it on a Sun SPARC
    server. Make sure to install into 2 separate Oracle Home directories and change the port settings. I used a single O/S owner.

  • HT1725 I have more than one apple id,can't remember ID or password.  Have many downloads incomplete and showing up in light gray in my iTunes unplayable. What to do??

    I have 2-3 apple id's and cannot remember what they are.
    I have numerous songs that are under these unknown apple id's that are in light gray
    And are incomplete downloads. ***??

    step 1) search at apple.com/support for the article, HE70.
    this will help you find out what the apple ID's are. the items are grey because either they are not found on the computer to actually be used + they are not available for other ID's than the one they were downloaded from.

  • How can I tell if I've installed more than one copy of Flip4Mac?

    I have a bunch of .WMV files and decided to install Windows Media for Mac.  It wasn't easy and I think between the two installations and attempts at uninstalling I might have more than one copy.  Any help is appreciated.

    That site is a con. It makes you believe it is scanning your system for viruses and then says your infected and offers you an anti virus installer to download.
    Its a con. It is pc-centric if it is offering you some malware then it is in a .exe format and cant run on a mac. I am unsure why your console opened I don't think that is related.

    We have more than one computer at home. How do we get the songs from each computer onto one I-Pod?

    Copy the songs to a computer that is running iTunes, add those new tracks to the current library, and then synch those tracts to the iPod.

  • Can you have more than one alert at a time show up on the lock screen?

    When i recieve a new message, this shows up as an alert on the lock screen when my phone is locked, as its supposed to. However, if a new alert comes through before i open the previous one, only the most recent one will appear on the lock screen. Is there anyway to set it so multiple messages can be displayed on the lock screen at once?

    Yes, you may have more than one "single" subscription, with the photography special counting as a single

  • HT2731 can i have more than one apple id on a computer? As when we go away we want to facetime from our macpro to our main mac at home and both are registered under the same apple ID. Thanks

    Can you have more than one apple id on a computer. We are going away and want to facetime from our macpro to the mac computer at home but both are registered under the same apple ID. What should we do ?

    I will share with you what I have done to manage this with my family.  While the solution isn't without flawes, it seems to do the trick.  First, you need to have one person who is managing the synching of everyone's devices.  In my family, I have three iphones, about to be four, and five ipads.  We all synch to the same apple ID to allow one another to take seemless advantage of our Itunes, which is on our Imac.  To synch individual music or video interests, we simply select which playlists we want and manually synch that way.  A couple of us use imatch and the cloud to make the entire library accessable as well.  With respect to the imessage, mail, contacts, etc. we each have a gmail account for our individual emails, contacts etc.  So for instance, my forth grade daughter has a gmail account that we choose to synch her contacts, calendar, etc to and then that is also the account where she receives her imessages from on her ipad and itouch. My son, who has an iphone and ipad, does the same thing, but under settings, he goes to imessage and checks his phone number and his email as his preferred way to receive imessages and texts.  My wife and I do the same thing.  To avoid having everyone see one anothers contracts etc, we only synch contacts from our individual email accounts.  Here is the downfall to this:  When you update your phone or add a new device, apple always wants to reset everyone's facetime and imessage settings and then low and behold we are all receiving imessages from one another's friends etc.  To work around this, I simply take each of their devices and go to their imessage settings and only check the email and phone numbers relative to their devices.  I dont' know is this is the best solution, but it seems to work for us. 

  • Can't I get my old iTunes that I have purchased downloaded from Apple?  I don't have the old computer anymore.  Also, is there a number to call if I think I have more than one account and would like them to consolidate my accounts?

    I have two problems:
    1.  I no longer have my old computer and want to download the iTunes I have purchased in previous years.  Aren't they all in "the cloud?"
    2.  I think I have more than one account and would like to get them combined.  Is there a good number or email to Apple that I could get that done?
    THanks!
          SHawn

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Have you failed to do this?
    You can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries:

    As provided, you cannot merge accounts

  • HT4314 Can I have more than one Game Center account on the same Apple ID? If so, how do I set it up?

    I am playing Clash of Clans on my iphone and on my iPad. I would like to connect each of my games to a different Game Center ID so I don't lose them if something happens to my device, but I can't figure out how to do that without creating new Apple IDs for each device and I don't want to do that. Any advice? Can I have more than one Game Center account under the same Apple ID? If so, how do I set it up? Thanks!
