I want to start using my iTunes Server to Synch my iPhone / iPad Need Help Moving iTunes...

Looking for some advice on a bit of an unusual situation.  I have two Mac Minis. One, (Firefly) is my main machine and my iPhone and iPad both connect to today, I also have another Mini (iTunes_Server) that as the name implies is my iTunes Server for my house.  I figure with WiFi synching I no longer need to have copies of all my music and movies and such on my main machine (Firefly) AND my server, I can simply synch my iPhone and iPad to my server from my home office or bedroom or anywhere in the house. 
Ok my issue is how do I move my sync relationship over to my server without
A: having to wipe my phone and
B: having to migrate my entire iTune from the Firefly Mini to the Server thus screwing up what I have on the Server?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.....
Thanks everybody.

  • Need help moving iTunes library. 32 bit to 63 bit

    I am going to be moving my iTunes library. I have moved from a 32 bit OS to a 32 bit OS, and that is easy. Is there any difference when moving from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows, because I know that the install files are different.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Easiest way would be to download a utility that does it for you.
    For a utility, you should try YamiPod (http://www.yamipod.com).

    If you bought your subscription direct from Adobe, you should not need any codes, only your Adobe ID and password
    -Cloud programs do not use serial numbers... you log in to your paid Cloud account to download & install & activate... you MAY need to log out of the Cloud and restart your computer and log back in to the Cloud for things to work

  • Hi I have just bought a mac book pro 2ghz 8gb ram with haswell.also it's running maverick. I am wanting to start using logic but does it work ok with maverick everything I read says it's no good please help

    Hi I have just bought a mac book pro 2ghz 8gb ram with haswell.also it's running maverick. I am wanting to start using logic but does it work ok with maverick everything I read says it's no good please help

    Which version of Logic? I have 9, but I've yet to install it. I'm just creating the images of the disks atm to install them on my Haswell. Will let you know how that performs.
    Logic 10 would most certainly work fine though.

  • HT1937 I used to have verizon as my phone carrier. But I don't no more. It's been more 5 months that I don't. I want to start using my iPhone 4 with a prepaid plan. Is that possible. Verizon said I'm not longer listed as their customer.

    Verizon offers prepaid service on the iPhone 4. Go into your local Verizon Store with your phone. I'm sure they'll be happy to set you up with service.

  • Old Visor and want to start using again

    Hey all.
    I am brand new to this forum so if this is in the wrong place, please forgive.  I have a Visor purchased in 2001, I think it's a Platinum but can't be sure.  I lost all paperwork and hardware in Hurricane Ivan.  Also the computer that had all of the software for syncing died and had to be replaced since then.
    So. Here is the thing.  I can't afford to get anything new and want to start using this.  It's in great shape but at the moment the only way I have to have info on it is to manually type all contact info, calendar info, etc directly into the device.  I don't have a cradle and don't know of any other way to connect to my computer.  Also, I don't know what type of operating system is on it and can't seem to find that info so I am unsure if it will work with XP.
    I called the company a while back, it was suggested I look on eBay for a cradle but am unsure if that is the best option as what if it's not the right one.  Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Since the hurricane I have become disabled and live on a very modest disability income so even though new ones are really not that expensive, they are to me.
    Having this working would definitely help me keep things like my medical appointments straight, as I have to go to several different states even for my doc appoints and sometimes it can get confusing.
    thanks again.

    If you don't have a cable or cannot get one, the only option is to Infrared hotsync. Your PC needs to have an Infrared port in order to accomplish this.
    On page 183 of the user guide are the instructions for IR hotsync'ing.
    For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

  • I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.

    I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.  Does anyone know how I can get my music?  I know longer own the iPad so I don't have access to it, but I don't think that should be a problem.

    So you had music on the iPad that is not in iTunes and you no longer have the iPad. Is that what you are saying? If that is what you are saying, iTunes won't "recognize" anything that was on the iPad, that was not purchased from iTunes. If the music was purchased from iTunes, you should probably be able to download it again for free as long as you are using the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Did you try downloading the music again?
    Am I understanding what it is that you want to do? If I am understanding you correctly, you will find this to be useful.

    I admit that I'm a little confused by your remark about being logged into your iPad account. You should be logged into your iTunes account.

    If you're really trying to use Windows 2000, then that's the problem. As you'll see on the box, you need at least XP/SP3.

  • Using 2006 iMac running Mac OS 10.6.8. My iTunes App (11.3.1) will not launch. Upgraded to iTunes (11.4) but problem persists. Need help.

    Using 2006 iMac running Mac OS 10.6.8.
    My iTunes App (11.3.1) will not launch.
    Upgraded to iTunes (11.4) but problem persists.
    Need help.

    I have no answers for ya, but I do have the same problem, so we are not alone in this.
    My iTunes stopped working after I did a couple of software updates that got my iTunes up to v. 11.4. Since that update, I can't get iTunes to open at all, neither from my dock nor from the Applications menu.
    I'm wondering: Perhaps these latest iTunes updates are simply too advanced for my 10.6.8 operating system? If that's the case, how can I backtrack to an earlier version of iTunes that is compatible with my computer OS?
    Any thoughts?

    Found the solution at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692.
    In my case, resetting the sync history and disabling the add-ins fixed the problem.

  • When openning itunes, I get a message saying I need to reinstall itunes if I want to burn cds. I already tried removing and installing lates itunes version but does not help. Does anybody know anything about fixing this issue?

    I cannot burn cds from itunes. Every time I open itunes i get a message indicating i need to reinstall itunes. I have already done so but it's not working. I still cant burn cds. Does anybody know how i can fix this? My windows media player burns cds just fine.

    I am having this same issue with Windows XP. The exact message that I get everytime that I open iTunes is :
    The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers forimporting and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes. I have deleted and reinstalled iTunes three times. I also have a problem with iTunes randomly opening itself.
