Integrating libraries from all profiles on one computer....

I desperately need to make space on my computer. I have three profiles on it and mine is the administrator. I know that we three have different music on each of our iTunes as well as a lot of the same music. How can I integrate all three libraries onto my profile and delete the other two accounts? I would like to delete all repeats once this is accomplished.

Do you have an external hard drive where you can move the files to?
If the PC is that short of space, there won't be room to make a share folder and copy everything there.
You might chack out gettin an exHD. It's good to have a backup icase hte main PC's hard drive dies, and it would allow you to consolidate everything into one shared folder, delete the duplicate filesonthe PC, and move it back all nice and cleaned up.

    I would like to delete my music on itunes and transfer all music and libraries from my ipad to my computer/Itunes. I´m doing that because I updated Itunes on my computer, didn´t like the new version, delete it, went back to an old version of itunes but now my lists are gone.

  • We have 2 ipods and 1 ipad with different apps all synced to one computer.  How do I prevent these apps from automatically being synced to all three devices each time I do a backup/sync?

    We have 2 ipods and 1 ipad with different apps all synced to one computer.  How do I prevent these apps from automatically being synced to all three devices each time I do a backup/sync?

    Uncheck the option to automatically sync new apps to the device.
    Other than that, syncing is by device.
    Connect one device, tell iTunes what to sync, then sync.
    Connect second device, repeat.
    Connect third device, repeat.

  • ITunes Shared library with all users on one computer

    I am trying to share my iTunes (version 8.2) library with all the users on my computer. So far, this is what I have done:
    1) I have moved the music folder into the shared folder.
    2) I have selected "Add to Library" in all three accounts.
    3) I have tried checking and unchecking the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library."
    Since then, I have added some CDs that had some songs that I already had. When I loaded these CDs, I deleted the duplicates that had the worse sound. Since then, everything is unwinding. The additions on one user account are not being added to the others. When I delete a track, iTunes (obviously) says that it can't find the song anymore. What's odd is that I then delete the one that is missing, and both are missing now: the one that I deleted on the original account and the one that I did not delete on the original account.
    I am starting to think that I need to start from scratch. So, to make a long story short (too late), how can I share my iTunes library with all users on one computer, where I can make a change in one account that will update automatically on the other accounts. If it can't be updated automatically, how can I add/delete files without causing the headaches I am currently having?

    I actually followed this, but I still had problems that I listed above. Is there any way that when you make changes to one account (even if there is only one main account where changes are made), the changes are automatically (or at least easily) applied to the other user accounts?

  • I accientally synced my iPhone to 2 different computers. Now my older apps are on one computer and new apps are on another.  Every time I try to sync all apps on one computer it takes the other apps of and just syncs what is on that computer - Help please

    I cannot for the life of me figure this out.

    What you need to do is connect your phone to iTunes but do not click sync.  Go to File at the top and click transfer purchases from phone, that'll put all your apps into iTunes.  When it's done transferring, locate your phone on the sidebar and click it.  Then find the apps option above the picture of your iphone, you can select which apps you want or don't want on your phone.  After selecting your apps then you can sync.  Once you do this you should never have your problem anymore.

    I would think the about:config entries discussed are ex-factory set to values each user has to change individually, after the installation has run its course. The solution could be to have patched files ready to install post factum:

  • How can I consolidate all photos from different users on one computer?

    We just enable one computer to be the "Family" computer. I want to be able to consolidate all photos from the different users into one location. That way no matter wich user is login they can see and browse all the family photos. How can I do that? Do I need and external drive?
    Thanks in advance?

    Move the iPhoto Library to the Users/Shared folder, or you can use an external disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    Merge the Libraries as Larry says, with the paid version of Library Manager.
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Each account will have full access to the library, in fact, each account will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

  • Combining 4 iPods/libraries from different computers on 1 computer

    I need help! My wife and I purchased 2 iPod minis some time ago, and I set hers up on her laptop. I set mine up on my work computer. Now our two children have an iPod mini and a nano. I want to move everything (all libraries/songs) to one central computer in our house, so we all can share the library. All music in our respective libraries is our own (off of CDs), and we haven't downloaded any songs. Again, I need to be able to have all 4 iPods hooked up to 1 library on 1 computer! Thanks for any help.

    One way would be to use the actual iPods and remove the tracks from them to build one central iTunes. There are a number of third party utilities you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod. This is just a selection.
    YamiPod
    PodUtil
    PodPlayer
    iPodAgent
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive posted in this thread: iPod to iTunes
    Keep your iPods in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return them to auto-sync if you wish.

  • All Music on one computer, but shared with other computers

    This has probably been answered here somewhere, but I have yet to find it.
    Situation:
    Three PCs in the same house on the same network. I want to store all music on one PC, and share it between the three. I have turned on sharing on all Itunes. I can play Music on all PCs. No album info is displayed from the shared library, and it will not let me create a playlist to burn a CD on the PC that does not have the music physically on it.
    Computer 1 - Main PC - Has Music files stored on it.
    Computer 2 - My PC
    Computer 3 - Kids PC
    What I have done:
    I have created a mapped drive to the itunes music library (computer 1), so that when ever music is ripped from a CD it is placed there(Comp 2 or Comp 3). When ever music is purchased it is also placed on the mapped drive (Comp 2 or Comp 3).
    Problems now:
    If a disc is ripped from Computer 2, it shows up on Computer 1 and 2, but not 3. If a disc is ripped from Computer 3, it shows up on Computer 1 and 3, but not 2. If music is purchased on Computer 2, it shows up on Computer 1 and 2, but not 3. If music is purchased on Computer 3, it shows up on Computer 1 and 3, but not 2.
    So the question is: Is there a way to allow multiple PCs to share a mapped drive and update there individual databases to show current information?

    You also need to map your iTunes library file. If you are on Windows it is probably in your My Documents folder. Once you find the folder it is in, share it, and then the next time you start iTunes in computer 2 or 3 hold down shift and select the recently shared library file as the library to open. This will allow all computers to read from the same library, but unfortunately they cannot all write to the same library at the same time. The last computer with iTunes open will be the last one to write the new iTunes library. Hope this makes sense.

  • Data Managers from all applications into one unique package

    Hi,
    The issue is that we are trying to put all the Data manager packages in all applications into one unique package.
    If BPC admin changes the parameters or currency rates , he just has to run that one package which includes all necessary
    packages and he may look into logs if he has to.
    Firstly , We tried to put multiple run_logic process types into one process chains, but it is giving errors like;
    u201CAn exception with the type CX_SY_TABLE_KEY_SPECIFICATION occurred, but was neither handled locally, nor declared in
    a RAISING clause Line Type Contains a Component with the Name FI_ACCu201D
    or
    u201CAn exception with the type CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB occurred, but was neither handled locally, nor declared in a RAISING clause
    The system tried to insert a data record, even though a data record with the same primary key already existsu201D.
    Secondly, after we read the blog () and we tried to run program
    UJD_TEST_PACKAGE , but we get errors with %SELECTION% prompt variable.
    Is there any other solution you can advise?
    If we use the program UJD_TEST_PACKAGE how do we fill AnswerPrompt paremeter file for the dynamic script below?
    PROMPT(SELECTINPUT,,,"Lütfen bir kategori seçiniz.","%CATEGORY_DIM%,%TIME_DIM%")
    PROMPT(TEXT,%LEVEL%,"XX Level",,"7,6,5,4,3,2,1")
    INFO(%EQU%,=)

    Hi.  I have a similar issue to the one posted below in that I want to run a logic script for one application (call it Application A) from a DM package in a different application (Application B).  This is to stop the user from having to switch between applications to run the logic.
    I have tried the following:
    1. I have tried putting the script logic from App A into App B, but the dimensionality is different so it fails to validate.
    2. I have tried "hard coding" the application name within the process chain, but it fails with an error "u201CAn exception with the type CX_SY_TABLE_KEY_SPECIFICATION occurred ...." similar to the post below.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • ITunes on multiple profiles on one computer using Windows 7

    I have the latest version of iTunes installed on my computer which uses Windows 7.  The initial profile that was made was the profile named Linda. My daughter wanted to create her own profile on the computer named Brie. When we go under Brie's profile and attempt to open iTunes we get the message  "The item referred to by this shortcut cannot be accessed. You may not have the appropriate permissions." 
    I receive the above message even when I go to Start>Programs>iTunes.exe. When I look at where is it trying to go, it is trying to open iTunes in C:\>Users>Linda>Music>iTunes.
    Why is it trying to open iTunes in there? On our old computer, each profile had their own iTunes with own library.  Why will it not allow a totally separate iTunes on Brie's profile?  Is it possible that iTunes was installed in the incorrect place? Should the actual program be in a shared folder somewhere or something?
    All help is greatly appreciated!
    Thank you!

    As a side note, my problem seems to be the opposite of most others.  I do NOT want to share a library between two profiles, but rather give them  each their own and be able to open iTunes on both profiles (NOT at the same time obviously) with their own music in each.

  • Obtain Inventory from Printers conected to one computer and conected to the network in SCCM 2012

    Hi i have a question how can i obtain information about computers in my network and the printers conected to one computer, i would like to obtain information like manufacturer, model and serial number, what do i have to activate to do this i wait for your
    commets thaks.

    If you are using ConfigMgr 2012, you can enable inventory of local printers with the Printer Device (Win32_Printer) which will give you make/model and capabilities information.  I do not believe it reports the serial number, since this is going to be
    handled differently by every printer manufacturer. 
    If you are using only HP, there are ways to script getting this information.
    I hope that helps,

  • How can I merge bookmarks and saved passwords from two computers onto one computer?

    Before I got rid of my old computer, I backed up my profile folder on a thumb drive. Then, I got a new computer and started customizing firefox, adding bookmarks and new saved passwords, without ever uploading my passwords and bookmarks from my old computer 's profile. How can I add the bookmarks from my old computer's profile folder onto my new computer's new firefox profile?

    That is about saving your current bookmarks to an HTML file because you would lose those when you restore a JSON backup from the backup.
    *Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Export Bookmarks to HTML
    *Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML
