Need more than 5 computers or link other accounts

Firstly let me say I love Home Sharing! BUT>>>>
We have a household with 5 iMac's, 2 MacBook Pro's 1 MacBook Air, 1 iMac G5, 1 Mac Mini, 3 iPhone 4,s, 3 iPad 2's, 4 iPod's, and an Apple TV. (Just your standard Apple Fanboy)
Here is our problem, I have an apple account, my partner has one and so does one of my kid's, we want to be able to share music (not all bought off itunes but from our CD collection) so that we can each sync our devices from either our iMac or MacBooks. but we cant. why, because I have created most of the content and I can only authorise 5 computers. This means I have to authorise a computer, move the files to that machine, then de-authorise it. This is a pian in the A$$. And if I buy something for my kids like a movie, an app for their ipod touch or music, they must be authorised everytime they sync or want to watch the movie and god forbid you rebuild a computer and forget to de-Authorise it, as I did this week. I have now lost that authorisation as I cant de-authorise that machine (And have de-authorised all 5 once this year so cant do that again) So now I'm down to 4 computer authorisations. given My iMac, MacBook, Mac Mini (Media Centre) and Apple TV must remain authorised for things to work I'm stuffed.
Why cant we link our accounts to give us a toal of 15 computers???????? This is crazy APPLE! you call it home sharing, its not, its personal sharing. You need to seriously look at how you are addressing homes with many mac and other devices. for example:
It would be great if we could have a central repository for everything (ie on a NAS) and each have our own itunes library that points to the NAS. (I know we can set this up but here is the catch) and have itunes CHECK REGULARLY that we are up-to-date. SO if I add music it shows up in everyones library. (And yes I know we could all share a single library, but only one person can open it at a time) This should/could also apply to iPhoto for the same reason (we have 9 camera's in this house and everyone wants to share photos)
Sound differcult? I dont think so, Picasa does it for pictures so iPhoto could. My itunes server on my nas does this so why not iTunes.
Any ideas?????
How do we all solve this problem????
As the trend is to move to apple which have fantastic hardware and software, this will become a major problem for some (like me) real soon. APPLE get off your butt and think beyond the small single users.
BTW: We are a family of 4 (2 Adults, 2 Kids) and One adult Uni-student/relative.

No there isn't a way, the current limit is 5 computers on which your account can be authorised at any one time. Whether that limit will be increased at some point we won't know until if/when Apple announce something (these are user to user forums). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

HT4759 Can you have more than one computer linked to the same icloud account?

Can you have more than one computer linked to the same icloud account? If so how do you add a computer?

Yes, of course - that's the whole point, to provide syncing of data such as calendars, contacts and email between computers and iOS devices. Having got iCloud up and running on one computer, simply sign all other devices in at System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud with the same login. (Lion 10.7.2 and iOS5 are the minimum requirements.)

Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts & what is the use?

Hi FI Experts,
Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts, what is the precise use of two?
I know the retained earnings account is used to carry forward the balances during the year end to the balance sheet and there by making the p&L A/cs balances as zero.
I guess the second one is used for different valueations for example as depreciation accounts for different valuations will have different retained earnings accounts.
Kindly correct me if I am wrong and eloborate on the use having more than one retained earnings accounts.
with regards
Ramesh Y

Hi,
Well, separate retained earnings accounts are used for parallel financial reporting, it means when you need to report in accordance with, for example, local GAAP and IFRS or US GAAP at the same time. Several retained earnings accounts are necessary when the company chooses account based approach for parallel reporting. (GL accounts are broken down into several groups, for example you use different accounts for IFRS valuation, for local GAAP and they are also shared accounts common for both principles.)

Firefox is the only browser that need more than 700 ms accesstime, when others need only 10! Why is that???

I have tested Google Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer. Firefox is using between 500-1100 ms accesstime, using Bredbandskollen.se, while the other two only uses around 10 ms!

First of all, thank you for your response.
Below you can find the answers to your questions:
1) YES, I am using version 4, build 0024.00. Forgot to mention that I use Windows 7 64-bit and Firefox 11 (I don't use Chrome or IE)
2) I cannot confirm that, because the problem doesn't appear every time. For example, today EVERYTHING works OK! I haven't change anything or done something different, but since I boot my T410s, every site log in with ONLY one swipe (today even Yahoo for the first time). As I said, SOMETIMES PWM asks for one swipe, other for 2 and rarely for 3 swipes. But I think that when the problem appears, PWM need more than one fingerprint swipe every time I go to the website.
3) The setting for "before logging me into a Web site or application..." is "Every time". As I said, I need this setting to be "Every time", as my notebook sometimes is being used by other persons.
It is really a stange problem and when it appears it is very annoying. Have you any other ideas about what it's going on?

Can I have more than one iphone per email account?

When my son got his iphone 4s I used my email address since he didnt have one yet. I have since gotten an Iphone 4s also, but when I went to activate it I had to put it under another email account, since mine was used for my sons iphone, so I used my husbands. My husband now has an iphone on order and I was wondering if there was a way of having more than one phone per email account?

I would set up a new email for him. That will give you a new icloud account. Also any apps that he downloaded with your ID will forever be linked to that ID and can only be updated with that ID. If that is a problem then you might delete those apps and download them again with the new ID ( and if they were paid apps you need to pay again)

I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this?

I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this? Once I reach 30 profiles and I try to add one - it just deletes one automatically thus only allowing a maximum of 30. Please help.

You are talking about 30 Firefox Profiles on the same Windows Logon User Account?
I never saw that as a limit myself. I had 53 Profiles at one time, although I haven't done that since Firefox 3.0. It was causing an extended launch time and I started using "remote" Profiles that weren't controlled by the Profile Manager and weren't in the '''profiles.ini''' file; launched by command line. Like this in the Target line for the desktop shortcut: <br />
''' "C:\Program Files\Firefox_4.0_zip\firefox.exe" -Profile D:\Mozilla\Active-Profiles\4.0_10-15-10-N '''

HT1420 can i have more than 5 devices on an account

can i have more than 5 devices on an account?

Yes, the page that you posted from refers to computers only (you can only have 5 computers authorised on your account at any one time).
If you use iTunes Match, automatic downloads and/or redownload past purchases then you can only do so on a maximum of 10 devices and computers combined : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - if you don't do any of those 3 things on a device or computer then it shouldn't become associated

PS CC Says I need more than 512 Vram ...

I was using Photoshop last night just to prep a couple of photos for class submission (3 pictures, just reducing their size for web consumption), and I got the message stating that I needed more than 512 Megs of Vram, which was odd to me, as I have 1024 Dedicated available on my video card. I don't run a dual monitor setup any longer, but I do have an ASUS PBs278 that's running at 2560 X 1440. My current graphics card is an ATI Radeon 6800 HD, and my windows 7 system is running on 8 gigs of ram. Up till within the last week, CC has worked just fine, but the other day on boot, it took an unusually long time to get into the software. It eventually did, and I'm wondering if that was an update or some such that's now made the software decree that if it doesn't have the 512 it thinks it should have, the 3d functions won't happen. I don't know if it's a consequence of the larger quantity of pixels being pushed, or if it's the video card getting too old to support CC at such a high resolution now, but some help would be amazing.

Windows 7, 64 bit. I haven't been able to replicate the error, but I have the new drivers as well. I hope this just ends up being a fluke.

How, using Adobe Connect can increase the number of participants in the meeting? I need more than 25 people.

Hi, I use licensed Adobe Connect. Earlier in the meeting could involve up to 100 people. Now only 25. How, using Adobe Connect can increase the number of participants in the meeting? I need more than 25 people.
Thanks for your help.

The purchasing option through adobe.com only allows up to 25 attendees. If you need more than that, you will need to purchase through a reseller. You can find one that is able to sell in your part of the world, here: Adobe Connect Partners. Just reach out to one of the Global Partners.

NEED more than 15 menu item in Context Menu ????

Hi,
I really need to have more than 15 menu item displayed on Context Menu. I desperately need some workaround or ideas to achieve this
My client has invested thousands of dollar in Flex Project, he definitely need more than 15 menu item.If this project failed , client will NEVER think to invest in flex.
Had I been aware of this limitation before I would have thought some solution by now.This comes as a surprise to me at the last moment ,just fews days before Prod Date.
I cant also user java Scrip heck as my Flex application is running inside Dot net Container , I do not access to the luxury of java script
Pls gents help me get rid of this ...PLEASE provide some ideas.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Dharmendra

Thanks Natasha,
I got your point but as for as I know grouping like Quality is not possibel in Flax Context menu. I also cant go for window style menu(file,edit) because I need them to be displyed on DataGrid right clk . I am designing a trade datagrid where in trader can see all trades and he can approve/reject etc by just right clk and selcting proper menu item form Context Menu.
In case of window style (acrobat.com) menu trader will have to reach to menu instead of getting all options on mouse right clk
I will have to think other alternative wich provides same ease as cotext menu.(God knows what is that )
Once again thanks for suggestion.
Regards,
Dharmendra

Need more than 90 minutes of continual video

,Need more than 90 minutes of continual video? Hi all,
I'm using the Vado HD [first gen] as a "hidden cam" type of thing for a play that I am filming. I have 2 normal cameras set out in the audience, but I want to mount the Vado HD above the stage for a bird's eye view of a sword fight scene that I can cut to when editing footage. The problem is that the fight scene happens near the end of the play and there are no intermissions.
Since the filesystem used on the Vado HD is FAT and not NTFS or HFS+, I run into the 4GB limit and the camera simply puts itself to sleep about 45 minutes into recording even though there is more space on the dri've and the battery is fine.
Can I reformat the Vado HD with HFS+ or NTFS? [i use a Mac but can run windows via VMware Fusion if need be]. Is there any way to squeeze 90 minutes of video in one file on this camera? If I reformat the camera, will it mess it up? [i don't use any of the apps that were installed on the camera - i moved them from the vid camera to my laptop actually, so i don't care about losing anything valuable on the vid camera].
Thanks for any tips you might have!
/vjl/

Could the reason be that you are capturing to an FAT32 format hard drive and it is only allowing you a limited maximum file size? Not sure but I think it is 4GB which would equate to 1/3 of a DV 13GB hour ...or about 20 minutes.
If that is correct, and you should be able to tell because the capture window will display the file size limit as space available during capture, you could do one of two things:
* reformat the drive as NTFS which removes the file size limitation (I have just done this on an external drive for exactly the same reason), but do look up online instructions for this and do it carefully.
* if the material is not long continuous shots of over 20 minutes, switch on Scene Detect during capture; it's wise to cut material up into smaller chunks in any case as huge files become very unwieldy and handling them could slow your machine right down.

More than one web link in a Business Event

Hi SAP experts,
Having created a web link in a business event I was very pleased with myself. Now I find that I would like to add up to two more (different) web links for the same Business Event. There does not seem to be an obvious option to do this. I have tried the route of Create->Create Attachment and Create->Create External Document. These actions subsequently apear in the Attachments List but are not visible to users in the Employee Self Service.
The SAP manual hints that more than one web link should be possible (it refers to 'web links' several times). However in the manual I have, there is no guidance on how to make multiple web links in a Business Event.
Is it possible? What's happening with the 'Attachments' that have been created? Should all the desired documents to be viewed be bundled into one document and then given the one, allowable web link? Is this the thickest question asked on this forum?
Many thanks for any guidance you may be able to offer.
Tony

Hello,
"Having created a web link in a business event I was very pleased with myself."
Could you summarise how you did that so it's clear what you mean by this?
