Main computer reading laptop
My laptop accesses the internet, my pc accesses the internet, but I cannot get the two pc's to talk to each other...read hard drives.
have you enabled file and printer sharing?
are they using the same Workgroup name?
does the firewall allow each others IP address?
have you actually shared any folders/drives on the two machines?

Try rebooting your router. Turn it off for a minute or two, then back on.

Using lightroom on laptop as well as main computer (Mac)
Does anyone know if you can use the same serial number to install on both main computer and laptop or is a separate serial number required .
ThanksI'm very interested in this answer too. More importantly, I'm running a mixed Microsoft/Apple environment and my desktop is still a Microsoft XP machine (Will change pretty soon tho).
I've always been able to run the same serial number for Photoshop on my Desktop AND my Laptop. But, I've understood that Adobe is very resistant to allowing people to run cross platform with the same licenses. AND, to make matters worse, the answer you get seems to vary with who you talk to at Adobe. Its like they have not really made up their minds about this.

I would like to change my main computer to my laptop from my desktop
I bought a new laptop and I would like to make that computer my main computer for my itunes, but I cannot seem to get it off of my desktop.
- Move you music to the new computer:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Copy/move the iPod backup from the old to the new computer. It is located her. You may have to have show hidden files turned on.
iTunes gives your backup a unique name for each device. To find the backup you just created, sort the window view by date and time created or last modified. iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
- Connect the iPod to the new computer and restore the iPod from backup and sync as necessary. -
I Have bought Elements 12 on a software card from PC world. I have registered it on my main computer. Can I also download it on to my laptop/ iPad?
Laptop, yes providing it meets the technical specs required to run Elements
System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements
Download the trial version from the Adobe website, install then enter your serial number.
iPad, no. Elements will not run on iOS, the Mac mobile operating system.
The only way to get software on to your iPad is via the Apple App Store. There is no version of Elements for the iPad. -
Question
I installed Firefox (10) sync on my laptop instead of my desktop. How do I uninstall, so I may install on my main computer? In tools the only sync option is "sync now."It won't let me install it on the other computer as a new account, saying that my address is already in use (on the small one) -- that is the crux of the problem.
When I try to set it up as a not-new account (clicking that I already have an account), there are different problems.
Am I right in assuming it needs to be installed on the main computer first (so that the smaller one doesn't wipe out the (more extensive) stuff on the main computer as they sync? I would love to be able to uninstall it on the small one, and start from the beginning on the big one. -
I have a laptop which I use away from home and would like to download itunes so if i download something on my laptop, i can transfer it to my iPad straight away without having to transfer the music to my main computer. How can i have my library on my laptop itunes like i have on my main computer? is this a possibility?
These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

iTunes was deleted off the main computer where I installed my ipod nano. Now, itunes cannot read my ipod on my second computer. What do I do? I use a PC. I just want to be able to download songs again and put them on my ipod.
Hey
Does it charge when connected, if not you may have broken it..
You can always try an apple Genius at an Apple Store,

I have iTunes on an old laptop with my own apple ID for my iphone and ipod.
My husband has iTunes on our main computer with his own apple ID for his iphone and ipod.
I am shortly purchasing an iPad using my apple ID.
How can I transfer my songs, apps and videos from my iTunes onto the new computer using my apple ID, not his.
Is it possible to create a new account on his iTunes?
How do I ensure all my apps and songs come over from my iTunes?
I have searched on here and online but have not been able to get an answer.
ThanksThanks
Are you sure that if I use my windows log in rather than my husbands, then open itunes it won't delete all his hundreds of songs and overwrite with mine?
I want to maintain my own apple ID login and he wants his but without losing his songs.....
how do i transfer the content of my itunes including apps and songs to the new computer. There doesn't seem to be an easy explanation on here. Do I just plug my iPhone in and it will all transfer? -
How to "In Effect" Turn Off Time Zone on iCal AND main computer
I am hopeful that this will help those of us who don't want to have any form of Time Zone on our computers or iCal. I read some of the other posts and see that it does not appear an option to completely turn off all Time Zones on the computer and iCal.
What I am thinking about doing, is trying to "Trick" my computer & ical into thinking it doesn't ever go anywhere and thus leaves all of my appointments where they are - no matter what time zone I am actually in.
I hope those of you more knowledgable can please help me see if this will work, or not?
I am hoping that by leaving Time Zone Support turned "Off" in iCal and leaving my computer at a 'manual' Mountain Time Zone (meaning I don't have it set to have it automatically set to the right time - I will set it manually), my appointments will stay put (not move around 8 hours when I go to Italy &/or back to the US)?
I can set the time "manually" to the correct time when I am in either US or Italy so my computer will reflect the current time, but still be set in Mountain Time Zone? Will the alarms still work on calendar events?
The only drawback I can see so far, is that all of the times on emails are messed up (i.e., off by 8 hours) when I am actually in Italy because I still do have the main computer time zone set as Mountain Time - US.
I am willing to live with this (I think?) if it leaves my appointment times alone.
Someone on a similar thread had wanted iCal to function like a paper planner - that is exactly what I am looking for as well! (it looked like that thread was a bit older, so that's why I posted this new question. It is my first on this type of forum, so forgive me if I am doing something wrong - and please advise! :~)
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)I am being driven crazy by, what I suppose to be, the same issue. I have used the Time Zone Support feature to somewhat limited success.
I frequently travel between different time zones am confused on how to set up iCal to show the times of my events *in the place where they occur*. When I am in LA and I have a concert in Chicago later in the week, I don't need to know what time the Chicago concert is in LA.
Syncing my Treo 650 adds another problem. Publishing the calendars adds another as the published times are not listed in the time zone where the events occur but rather what time zone my laptop is in.
This seems simple to me, but I may be missing something. Here are my wishes:
1. As I travel with my MacBook Pro that I can change my Date and Time preference to actually list the time zone where I am. Easily done...but...
2. That the event times in iCal are unaffected by the changing of the Date and Time preference adjustment...(after all the concert in Chicago is still at 3pm on Friday, even if I am in Tokyo on Monday. I need to know the time of the Chicago concert in Chicago time, not Tokyo.)
3. That calendars that I publish list the time in the place where the event occurs. I have students that need to know their lesson times but are consantly confused because the published times reflect whatever time zone I happen to be in...not where the lessons take place.
4. That when I sync my Treo the event times automatically adjust to whichever time zome the treo picks up off the network time server. When I land in a new time zone, I need to know the the rehearsal starts at 10, in the city where I have just arrived.
I have recently switched to the Apple PIM apps from Entourage...where, if I never changed the time zone, everything was fine.
Sorry for the longish cry for help.

I have 2 ipod shuffles and one nano. One of the shuffles is registered on the main computer, the second on my laptop. the nano I just got. Can I download music from my main system even though my second is registered on the laptop, or does all my stuff have to be registered on my main system?
If those older shuffles work and have the songs on them...
For songs purchased from the iTunes Store, you can use iTunes to transfer from iPod to computer. The command (in the current version of iTunes) is at
iTunes Menu Bar -> File -> Devices -> Transfer Purchases from [name of iPod]
However, you may need to have your current computer authorized with the Apple ID (iTunes Store account) used to make the purchase. If you do not, the purchases from that Apple ID may not transfer.
There are third-party methods and utiltiies (not using iTunes) to transfer song files from iPod to computer. These should not care about Apple ID or that a particular song was purchased from iTunes Store or not. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files from the two older shuffles are transferred to your computer, you can add those songs to your iTunes library. Then, sync your 4th gen shuffle from the "consolidated" iTunes library. -
I have WRT54G Wireless Router on my main computer (VISTA...
I have WRT54G Wireless Router on my main computer (VISTA) and I am trying to set up A Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter (WUSB54G) on my other computer (XP). It is all setup, however I am getting the message "You are connected to the access point, but the Internet cannot be found." To further complicate the issue, when I check the IPCONFIG on the XP computer, I get back some weird IP address that is outside my router's network, even though I'm using DHCP.
I know the router is working - my laptop associates through the wireless network with no problem, and I can access the network printer that is also wired to the router. The problem seems to be in the configuration of the old XP computer with the new WUSB54G adapter.Try following settings ....
Uninstall the drivers for the Adapter from start >> All programs ....
>> Insert the Setup CD in the cd drive>> Click on Exit when the
Linksys welcome screen appears>>Click on start. Unplug & replug adapter ...>> There should be a "" Found New Hardware Wizard ""
that pops up on your screen>> Click on “Install software
automatically “, and then click on next. Once the installation is
complete>> Right click on the wireless network connection icon in the
system tray besides the clock >>Click on view wireless networks and
then connect to your network name.
