IPhone - purchased applications on two different computers

Hi guys, I hope you can help:
I have an iPhone 3G, and I have two macs that I use every day - home and work.
For reasons too boring to go into detail here, I have accidentally purchased iPhone applications on both of my computers.
I was wondering since I use the same iTunes account, is there anyway to merge my applications onto one iTunes?
I have found ways to do contacts from one and music from another, but not applications from both?
Is it an iTunes issue or an iPhone one?
Thanks in advance...

Applications would fall under the same rules as itunes content, such as music. It can only be synced to one machine at a time. You may be able to move the application via a flash drive to another authorized computer, not sure. I think you can download the application again(for free) to the other computer, as long as the itunes account is the same.

Syncing iphone to iTunes on two different computers...

Hello everyone.
So I have been wrestling with these trying to find a solution for my issue.
I think this is a two part question.
I have iPhone that I use for both home and work. I have some music, apps and such on it. Basically, when at work, I plug it in to let it charge and do the same at home.
Now, the problem is, I cannot sync my iphone correctly. Seems like my home is different from work and I always end up having to reinstall my apps, download pics and music.
Is there a way to get around this, so I can plug in my iPhone into either iTunes location and it will be the same? I cant seem to figure it out.
The other thing I was hoping to get answered is, I subscribe to a lot of podcasts through iTunes. I usually do this at work on my Mac there. Is there anyway to get the podcasts that I subscribe to at work, to show up on my Mac at home?
Appreciate the help.
Jas

I'm pretty certain you can't have your podcasts show up on your iTunes from a different library but there are some third-party softwares that will allow to you transfer music etc. back to your mac.
I'm not too familiar with the iPhone but there are a few similarities with the iPod.
Unless you 'manually manage' your iPhone then you can put music (and am assuming applications) on it from different libraries. You should be able to listen to your music from other sources when your iPhone is connected.
If at any point you revert to automatically syncing you iPhone it will only sync the contents of the library you've synced it to.

Purchased Songs on Two Different Computers

I have two computers, one at home and one in my office. I have purchase about 30 songs on the computer in my office using the same itunes account I use at home. When I open itunes at home, I only see the two songs I have purchased at home. Once I buy a song, shouldn't I be able to access it on both computers? Do the songs get saved to my account on only the computer used to make the purchase? Thank You for your help...not crazy about itunes support. Danielle C.

To transfer, I would just save the songs to a folder and send them to my other computer for download?
Right-click an item, locate it, copy that file as well as any others in the same area of the hard disk to the new computer, and then drag them into the open iTunes window. Alternatively, back up the library to CDs or DVDs and restore the backup on the other computer.

Can I run two applications at once from two different computers?

Good Evening,
I would like to use the cloud service. I have read over the FAQs and they were quite clear, however I did not seem to find something to the effect of what I need answered.
If I were to download the apps on a backup computer and my personal computer, can I run for example a photoshop application on one computer, while running an encore application on the other computer at the same time?
The FAQs state that I can pick and choose which apps I want on a computer. Will I be able to download a portion of the apps on my personal computer and the remaining on a backup computer, while being able to use a portion on computer and another portion on another computer at the same time?

You could be working in two different applications on two different computers, going back and forth between them.
You can install any of the applications that you wanted to use on either of the computers but still only on two computers overall.
Hope that helps,
-Dave

How do you sync an iPhone to two different computers?

I just got my iPhone and was adding music to it, but I have my music on two different computers, both of which I have songs I want to add to my iPhone. I was just wondering if there is a way to sync music from two different computers without having to transfer all my music to one computer?

iTunes includes a backup to disc feature with an option to backup content purchased from the iTunes Music Store only or all iTunes content - burned to CD.
You can do this and then transfer your backed up iTunes data to the other computer.
The iPhone was not designed nor intended to be a backup device or a transfer device of iTunes content from one computer to another as Ansuz82 provided to prevent music piracy.
It is always the few that would abuse such a feature if available that spoils it for the majority that wouldn't.

I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

Provided they're both for your use, yes.

HT1364 I used these instructions to move my i-tunes library to the external hard drive that two different home pc's access. My playlists do not show on both Is it possible to have one i-pod synch amid two different computers that use the same library?

I have a sole i-pod and two pc's, used the instructions for "iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder" in the hope that I could synch my one i-pod between two different computers that are sharing the same library. Is it possible to have two seperate computers that only share an external hard drive (one wireless, one not) ? When I am looking at a shared library should it appear the same on both machines (ie: playlists/ purchased list etc)?

If it is moved correctly, playlists will display on both computers and it should be possible.
Close iTunes.
Hold <SHIFT> and launch iTunes.
When prompted to create a new or open an existing iTunes library point iTunes to the iTunesLibrary.itl file on the external drive.
The entire library should now show up with all playlists and playcounts.
Do this on both computers.
Keep in mind that only one computer can access iTunes at a time, otherwise errors will occur when each computer attempts to write to or update the iTunesLibrary.itl file.
Syncing may work seemlessly with both computers, but honestly syncing is designed to work with one and only one computer.

Downloading songs from two different computers, and not recognizing songs

On my home computer, I downloaded about 40 songs onto my IPod from CDs. Then, I installed the program on my work computer, and purchased four songs from ITunes. When I plug my IPod into my work computer, it is not recognizing the songs I downloaded from my home computer. However, if I plug my IPod into my work computer, I can listen to these four purchased songs, but once I try to listen to them without having it plugged into my work computer, only the songs I downloaded from home are on the IPod.
Has this happened to anyone else who has tried to put songs from two different computers onto their IPod?

Just to elaborate a bit, you need to copy the purchased files and put them on your home computer.
Don't burn them as an audio CD as you will lose quality when you re-import them.
You can use the Shuffle (instead of a CD) to do this

How can I use the same "I Tunes" on two different computers

I’m using two different kinds of Personal Computer: One is Desktop PC And the other one is Notebook .
In each computer there are the same songs and when I get the new ones to the Desktop I want them to be placed on the Notebook or reverse.
Where does the I Tunes save the playlist on the hard drive ?
I have prepared a playlist on my Notebook and want it to be seen on the Desktop but I dont want to fallow the steps File > Library > Export Playlist on the Notebook. Is there any other way to make this issue instead of the mentioned steps.
How can I see the same Playlists and songs on two different computers ( notebook and desktop) including the updating processes.
Operating systems of the computers:
Desktop: XP Pro
Notebook: Vista Bussiness

I use SyncToy 2.0 to keep two instances of my library in sync. SyncToy's preview will show which files it is about to update giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the changed files will be copied saving lots of time.
As long as I sync after making updates at one instance of the library before making any updates at the other then everything works just fine. I periodically run iTunes Folder Watch to check for any orphaned entries or new items that haven't been imported into the active library. If your machines are regularly networked together this process is fairly straightfoward. Mine are in disparate locations so I use one of the (physically) small WD My Passport host powered drives which I take between home & work, synchronising at either end. This gives me three complete copies of my library so I'm covering backup & synchronisation in the same operation.
When connecting my iPod at either location iTunes recognises itself as the "home" library for the iPod so I'm able to use the sync with selected playlists option without getting warning messages about the iPod being synced with a different library.

Same iTunes Account on Two Different Computers

Is there any way for someone to create an iTunes that allows a person to access the same iTunes account on two different computers? Like if my mom wanted the same songs on her computer as the ones on my dad's computer, but she doesn't want to go through the trouble of using a flash drive. They both want to have access to the same account on two different computers.

if the computer cannot be turned on, one option would be to remove the hard drive and put it in an external enclosure that can be connected to the working computer.

Can i have the same application in two different oc4j containers?

Hi,
I have developed one J2EE application and still the updation is going on. So i wanted to to deploy the application in two different oc4j containers. so that one will be having the working version of my application and the users can use that application. I want to use the second container as my test application, in that i can modify and test. The deployment of my application in two different containers went fine. But when i try to access the web application with the context, it is serving from the latest deployment for my request.
My question is :
1) Can i use both applications with different Oracle HTTP server port numbers??
2) All the HTTP requests are passed to the oc4j containers by AJP13 protocol through AJP port to the OC4J containers. where is the mapping between the OHS and AJP protocol defined ??? ie., the requests from this http port have to be transferred by AJP protocol through AJP port to this OC4J container ???
3) Or i have to have two different installations of Oracle9iAS ???
Please help me to solve my issues...
Robert D

Different ohs port numbers would not help as there is only 1
$iashome/Apache/Apache/conf/mod_oc4j.conf
You can pick a different context_root name for your test app.

When I set (on two different computers) the Location Bar to "Nothing" it resets to "History and bookmarks" as soon as I close and reopen Firefox.

When I set (on two different computers) the Location Bar option: When using the location bar suggest: to "Nothing" it resets to "History and bookmarks" as soon as I close and reopen Firefox. I am using the latest vesion on Win8 on both computers. One has Bitdefender the othe McKafee. I have no obvious Addware, I use Iobit Uninstaller Advanced Care and and Driver manager on both computers. Until now I have always used Firefox as I refuse to use Explorer and I do not want to have to use Opera or another browser instead.
Can you please help?

Have you seen this general article: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]?
Also, this might be a glitch with using automatic private browsing mode. Some settings changes might not be saved in that mode.
If all else fails, do you want to try a manual hack?
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window (Windows Explorer window) showing your current settings files.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then open '''prefs.js''' in a text editor by right-clicking it and choosing Edit or Open With. (Double-clicking leads to Windows attempting to execute it, so I do not recommend that.)
Paste this at the end of the file on its own line:
user_pref("browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled", false);
Then save the file and close your editor.
Start Firefox back up again. Did the manual change work?
