Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.

  • Hello I have a 3G and a 4G iphone, purchased in Australia where I lived. But, now I am living in the USA. I understand both iphones from Australia have GSM language - Is there any way I can use either of these iphones in the USA?

    Hello  I lived in Australia for 3.5 years, using a 3G and a 4G iphone.  In April I moved back to the USA and would like to use one of these iphones.  I understand Australia iphones use a GSM language and AT&T is the only carrier that will allow me to use for the GSM.  When trying to sign up with AT&T, the SIM card would not work.  When visiting Apple in Walnut Creek, CA, they said that these iphones I have cannot be used in the USA.
    Before moving back to the USA, I visited the Apple Store near Sydney and they said I could unlock them to use them in the USA.  THey did something with the 3G iphone, but when I was at AT&T in Walnut Creek, I could not get the 3G to work.
    Bottom line:  can I use either my 3G or 4G iphone that I bought in Australia here in the USA?
    Thank you for your help.
    KInd regards,
    Susan Williams

    You should contact the carrier (in Austrailia I presume) to which they are locked to as they are the only ones that can unlock your iPhone.

  • I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

  • Is there a way I can use Protanopia (Color Blind) profile as a regular profile that I can convert

    I've been trying to reproduce this color blind conditionfor a long time now and I still didn't figure out how I can do this. I've searched for cluts but didn't find any, only this, which has some previews of them, but no any files I can load into Photoshop's Color Lookup adjustment. I've looked into Pixel Bender plugin, but I'm using CC so that doesn't work either... I've also tried it with the Index Color mode, but that really messes up my image as it has a really low color range (256). I've even tried reproducing the same effect with adjustments, channels, etc, but didn't figure it out.
    Since there's a way to perfectly color proof images with this condition, I'm guessing this has to be some kind of ICC profile or something similar. Is there a way I can use it as a color profile?

    There are profiles involved, but I don't think they exist as separate files, and are licensed in a way that I don't think allows for redistribution.

  • I don't have a wireless keyboard or mouse for my 2007 iMac, is there any way that can use remote desktop and access it from my 2010mbp.

    Hi champrider,
    You can use an application such as Apple Remote Desktop to control your iMac remotely. See this article -
    OS X Mavericks: Allow access using Apple Remote Desktop
    This help page will provide you with some other useful resources for Apple Remote Desktop -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

    If you use the LiveSDK to authenticate the user and specify the wl.signin scope, when the user signs into your app and provides consent to single sign-in when they can go to any Microsoft Account supported app or website they will not have to enter their

  • Is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches

    I am a Chinese student,I am doing some research on OLAP.
    I'm in the initial stages of evaluating BI Beans for my research. We have previously not used Oracle in house.
    In attempting to use BI Beans, the first thing you must do is install the latest patches against the Oracle database. Unfortunately, the patches are only available for people with a suport contract.
    Is there any way I can get these patches without a support contract, or is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches?
    thanks alot,

    You must have a valid support contract to access Metalink. You could try contacting your local support centre and ask if they could make the patches available to you.

  • Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

    Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

    Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
    Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
    Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.

    Allan,
    If you get your album artwork from the iTunes Store, it is stored in the folder iTunes/Artwork in an encrypted ".itc2" file.  There may be tools out there to extract it, but it is generally much easier to get the art via a web search in JPG format to use in projects.

    Continuity requires OS X and iOS. At least one of the devices you mention is lacking those... So no.
