Is there an easy way to transfer playlist from laptop to iMac?

Hi,
I just made custom tunes and a playlist on my laptop.
How do I transfer the playlist (with the new tunes) to my iMac?
Do I have to find the actual songfile on the laptop - copy to laptop desktop, then through "target mode" - copy to desktop of imac and put in library? Or is there an easier way???
Thanks!

The method I have used is to export the playlist on the first Mac, File>Library>Export Playlist, this creates a text file that you save to say your desktop. Then copy that text file to the second Mac and from iTunes on the second Mac import that playlist, File>Library>Import Playlist.
Note however this will NOT copy the songs from one Mac to another, but assuming you have the same songs on both, this method works well. If you dont have the same songs on both as you said then you first need to copy the songs manually from 1 Mac to the other, either through Home Sharing or Add to Library etc.
Easiest way to do that is to create a new folder on desktop, drag the songs in your playlist into that folder, copy that folder to your iMac then Add to Library from iTunes on your iMac & select that folder you just copied.

Is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file

is there an easier way to transfer your iTunes library on windows to a mac than copying the library to a usb and plugging the usb into the mac and put the library in the iTunes file? I recently swapped to Mac and this is how i moved the library from windows to mac and library is in tact but is there an easier way? My cousin just imported her cd's again, but it was harder for me as i have an ipod with over 150 apps and i needed to move them. i think it would be helpful if i knew of an easier way so i can help a friend move his. Thanks

The general method of use is to download a script (double-click or right-click and use Download or Save As...) to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist or sometimes the entire library.

Easy way to transfer photos from multiple computers to one library ?

Hi,
At home we have a couple of macs and of course every user has it's own iphoto library. I am now looking for a way to backup all those iPhoto libraries to a "main" computer in an easy way. This main computer is an iMac with multiple external drives attached. On this same iMac I already backup the iPhoto library to one of its external disks.
It would be nice if there was some kind of tool that could collect all (new or updated) photo's from the other macs, and put them in the main iPhoto library on the iMac.
Is there such kind of thing, or am I doomed to find out which photo's are new on each computer and manually copy them to the iMac ?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. iPhoto Library Manager will work with iPhoto 08. All libraries must be at the same version in order to be able to merge them.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Is there an easy way to remove photos from iPhoto in the organizer?

I had been using iPhoto, but quit when I started using Photoshop Elements. With version 9, it imported not only photos in my pictures but those in iPhoto. So I have hundreds of duplicates I need to remove from the organizer. Is there an easy way to find the ones from iPhoto so I can remove them?

OK, but is there a way to search/filter on a string in the location (i.e. iPhoto) so I could then easily know which are the duplicates I want to delete?
If there isn't, then it seems that I will have to delete the catalog and start from scratch again. I had originally thought I didn't include iPhoto in the folders to search, but apparently it was somehow included so I will have to be more granular in what folders to search if I recreate the catalog again.

Is there an easy way to remove entries from my site?

I am running out of iDick space. I don't want/need to purchase more. I would like to remove some older entries from my site. Is there an easier way than cut and pasting? I want to save then on my computer, for posterity?

Hi Sharon!
Wow, you must have a very extensive site to be running out of iDisk space! First of all, are you sure you haven't got some unutilized iDisk space sitting around....maybe reserved for email or something? You can change the allocation between iDisk space and Email storage in your .Mac account settings page. Let me know if you need help on doing this...
If you really are running out of space, I can't think of a good way for you to back up a portion of your site locally and only publish the recent entries to your iDisk. As you already know, iWeb loves to publish it all...all the time! Maybe it's time to bit the bullet and just start a new site for your new entries going forward. Before you start the new site, you can backup a read only version of your website to a CD or something by using "Publish to Folder". Then once you are sure you have the working website locally, you can delete the site from iWeb once and for all and then start your new site.
I know it's probably not ideal, but it's a suggestion. You can always "Publish to Folder" and save the resulting folder as a fully functional website to a CD. Keep in mind that if you use any .Mac-only features (like counters, comments, search, slideshows, etc) these features will not be functional on a "Publish to Folder" site.
If you have found any of this information to be useful to you, please take the time to provide me with feedback by marking my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using those little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I'd really appreciate it!

HT1338 Is there an easy way to transfer contacts to imessage in my laptop? instead of manually entering each from my iPhone

I want to know if there is an easy way of transfering contacts to imessage on my laptop from either my iphone or facebook?

Hey Stevonz83,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities, and thanks for the question! You have a few options. You can either enable iCloud on your Mac and iPhone, which stores your contact information and automatically pushes it to each of the devices that you set up to work with iCloud. You can read more about it here:
iCloud: Contacts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2576
Or, you can use iTunes to manually transfer your iPhone's contact information to your computer, which you can read more about here:
