I have two icons of the same app in Macbook pro

After updating iMovies I got Two Icons for the app in Launchpad. How can I remove One without deleting the App.

hold down on the trackpad with the cursor over the icon and lift it straight up off the dock and it will disappear and make a poof sound with a cloud of smoke.

Two icons for the same app. appear in dock

Hello. As is obvious to everyone, whenever one launches an app., it's icon will appear in the dock (assuming it's not already there). I have one particular app., however, (a newly downloaded mac game), that whenever launched, it's icon will appear in the dock, immediately followed by a second icon right next to the first! Does anyone know the cause of this? If I quit the first icon, the app is unaffected.
I have repaired permissions, and even rebuilt Launch Services database, to no effect.
The game, by the way, plays perfectly, so it is only a minor concern, but I'd like to know if there's a way to correct this.
Thanks in advance

Some programs open up assistant programs whic really results in two (or mor) programs opening up and appearing in your Dock. For example ffmpeg will open up a progrss app when you start encoding so you see a separate app apear on the dock. You have to quit it separately.

How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer

I have two ipads using the same apple id. My 3 year old uses one to play learning games. How do I set them up so my apps arent displayed on her ipad?

When you connect that iPad to iTUnes, go to the summary page and scroll down, there should be a box saying 'automatically update' or something to that effect. De select that.
With automatically update on, what you buy on one goes onto the other. but with that box off you can choose.
On the iPad itself, it's under
Settings
iTUnes and App Stores
and then you can choose what you want automatically updated between the two devices.

I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends. She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it

I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends. She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it. Really need some help. Shouldnt her apps and details be saved online in the itunes store? Even her apps wont appear

If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.

I have two phones under the same apple ID and I want to put them on two separate apple IDs. how do I do this?

I have two phones under the same apple ID and I want to put them on separate apple IDs, how do I do this??

If you sign out of an Apple ID under Settings > iCloud, you should be prompted for an option to 'Keep on my iPhone' in regards to Contacts and other related data. Then, when signing in with another Apple ID on that same iPhone, you should be prompted to 'Merge'. If you do both, then you won't lose any Contacts, and the iCloud Contacts will then be merged into the new Apple ID iCloud, but also will stay on the old Apple ID iCloud.
In the future, it might be best to post your own question thread instead of bumping a thread that is over two years old.

If I have two appointments at the same time, they overlap in the iOS 7 calendar rather then appearing side-by-side so that I can't read one of them due to the identical colors of the two appointments. Is there any way to fix this with a setting?

If I have two appointments at the same time, they overlap in the iOS 7 calendar rather than appearing side-by-side in the daily view, so that I can' read both of them due to the same background color. Is there a way to change this via a settings change?

I fyou have "all day" event that are taking up the entire day, check the event. All day event only appear at the top of the time line (and just below the week view). I suspect they are not actually set up as all day, but have specific time frames assigned.
In teh screen shot below, "Sample" is an all day event; NFL: CAR@SF is not.

I have two printers of the same model registed in eprintcenter and can't differentiate between them.

I have two printers of the same model registed in eprintcenter and can't differentiate between them.
I've tried change varios names in each printer's settings but they still show up in eprintcenter with the model name. What can I do to change the name so I can diffentiate the two prineters?

Hi mptpro, the way to differentiate between your two printers within your ePrintCenter account is by their email address. The model name is automatically detected when you add the printer to your account and is not configurable but you can set the email address is. By giving each printer a distinctively different and meaningful email address you'll be able to differentiate between the two.
To change a printer's email address:
log in to your ePrintCenter account
click on the Printers tab
select one of the printers and you will see the current email address for that printer just above the job history table
click the Change button to the right of the address and enter the desired name in the dialog box that opens
repeat for the second printer

Is it possible to have two files with the same name on my Zen To

Hia,
Is it possible to have two mp3 files with the same name?; I.e if I'm ripping a Bach CD, there are several tracks that have the name preludium, and I hate to do the rename.
Also, will I be able to sync my Zen so that It will only recieve new files that have been added since I last connected my Zen to my computer?
regards,
Fredrik

I believe same filename is OK because the Zen Player does not really care about filename. As far as I know, the Zen database of the tracks in the player is based on the track information such as Title, Artist, Album and Genre. This means you cannot have two tracks of the same Title, Artist, Album and Genre in the Zen Player.
