Is there a way prevent multiple downloads of iphone update
I have an imac with 4 user profiles and 4 iphones tied to itunes (one in each profile). When there is an update to the iphone, each profile has to download the update. Is there a way to share the update between the profiles to prevent having to download the update 4 different time?
When you update the first one, you can save the *.ipsw (it will be in your users home directory in \Library\iTunes\iphone software update) and use it for updating from a local file for the others. Ordinarily, the ipsw is deleted once the update has been installed, so once the download is complete, and the device is restarting, go and copy it somewhere else before the cleanup script purges it.
Or, you can update those other devices over the air via wifi - the over the air update is MUCH smaller (iOS 7.0.6 on my iPhone 5 and iPad 4 was about 13.3MB-13.6MB). The over the air update just includes the updated material, while the iTunes update includes everything for all previous updates as well (it is the equivalent of the OS X combo-updaters).

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?
Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers. To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Enter your Apple ID and password.
Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share. You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons. Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
Go to Music in your Home Share. Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner. -

I have downloaded a Audio Book from Itunes Store, but rencently i have had to reinstall windows, is there any way to re-download the audio book from Itunes, i know that the audio books are one time downloads, but is there any way to get the audio book back as i have already paid for it once and i would not like to pay for it twice.
If you haven't got a backup copy and if it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I had to reformat the hard drive on my old desktop. It is runninf Windows XP. I can't get Internet Explorer to work so I can connect to the internet via wireless. Is there a way I can download firefox from my new desktop onto a flas drive and then install Firefox from the flash drive onto my old desktop? If so, please explain the procedure.
Go to a suitable download page eg: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html]
Download firefox, use the save option rather than install.
Save it directly to the flash drive, or to somewhere on your computer and copy/move it the flash drive.
However if IE is not working possibly you have some sort of setup problem so firefox may not work either. -

Is there a way I can download this music?
No, not without enabling Home Sharing, which would require using the same Apple ID and the other account holder's consent. -
Is there any way to re-download something on iTunes?
I downloaded an LP from a new album, but one of the bonus videos that came with the album is skippy and I think it might be because I paused the download on the LP and that might have messed it up. Is there any way I can download it again, seeing as I purchased it and it is my property?
I don't know if the bonus material is available for re-downloading, but go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. You can see if the bonus material is listed there. If so, delete it from iTunes and you should then be able to re-download it.
For full instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
If it's not listed there, go here:

and follow the instructions to report the problem with the video to the iTunes Store.

Aperture 3.1.2 no more stores imported pictures in projects. Downloded Update 3.2.2 cannot be opended. Actualisations only via Mac App Store. Is there a way via Internet-Download?
In the Window 'About Aperture' is below the Version: a No: 1530000.1
Are you looking in the "About" panel of your old Aperture installation or the Trial? The old version will show the licence number, if it has one. After installing a different version this chance is gone.
I bought Aperture 3.1.2 on March 2011 in the internet App Store.
If you bought from the App Store and not the Apple Store, your Aperture version has no serial number. Are you sure, you did not buy from the Apple Store? Then you should have received a serial number by email.
Can you give me a serial No
No, sorry I cannot. The serial number is bought with Aperture and only licenced to the person who bought it. -

Is there a way to only download quicktime 7.1.3 and not 7.1.6?
Quicktime 7.1.6 is not compatible with another program I need to use and iTunes says it needs at least 7.1.3 to work. Is there a way I can download that version and not the newer one?
After searching Apple Downloads, the only other version 7 I could find was 7.1.5. Would that help you at all?

Is there a way to watch downloaded shows back to back??!! Help!
Is there a way to watch downloaded shows back to back??!! 'm a Mom to a toddler and the consecutive "play" option apple once had was a life saver when taking long trips in the car. I don't need to play movies, my son lacks the attention span to follow right now but disney junior shows keep him content with lots of singing and colors. I was able to press the "play" button on the screen and it would play all shows under a specific title. That button is now missing under the ios7.1.1 "upate". I don't know why apple would remove ths option but itabsolutley aggravating. Shouldn't updates make the iPad better not worse. The update was bad enough on the iphone but I'm so fed up with apple I'm thinking about switching to a better product. Apple really stionks now. What happened to being intuitive and user friendly?? DOES ANYONE KNOW SOME NOT SO OBVIOUS WAY TO PLAY SHOWS CONSCUTIVELY???!!! Please help!!
Sincerely,
A Desperate MomNot unless you can download the episodes to the iPod. Most of the TV show apps stream the content via WiFi so you need to be able to connect to the internet.
TV shows that you download in iTunes can be watched - after fully downloading - without WiFi.
