No support for editing library with second computer

Am I wrong about this?
There is no way to edit the songs, books, movies, etcs on an ipod/iphone unless you have the computer that has your library on it?
I have my main computer which has my library of songs, books, etcs which my Ipod is synced with.  However I recently moved and put that computer in storage.  So now I only have my laptop which has no media (songs, moves, etc) at all.  My laptop is Authorized for my account but when I try to remove one of my audiobooks or songs I get the message that I need to sync it which will remove all prior media on the device (not what I want).
Really all I wanted to do was remove a song or 2, an audiobook and get information about how much each app is taking up (HDD space). 
If I am correct and there is no way to do this, where do I go to put in a feature request for this?  How did something so basic get over looked?  Is this an intended limitation and probably never be fixed since it is something apple is meaning to do.

nevermind found my answer here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090114155845AAzvnYB
which basically states you need to go to summary and select Manual Library Management

    Having exact same problem, only it's with a book I've paid for, so it hurts more . Any ideas?

  • My itunes seems to be looking for my library on my computer C drive,  rather than my external drive ( originally set up to as default ).  How do I re-set itunes to look for my library on the external drive ?

    Suddenly, after a year of good operation,  my itunes seems to be looking for my library on my computer C drive, rather than the external drive it had been set up to as default   How do I get it to search for the stored library on the external drive again ?

    Quit iTunes.
    On the external drive;
    1 - Create new folder called iTunes (or whatever you want).
    2 - Move your music folder into this.
    3 - Go to the the C: drive iTunes folder.
    4 - Copy the iTunes library.itl file into the iTunes folder on the external drive.
    5 - Start iTunes holding the Shift key.
    6 - Select Choose existing library and select the iTunes library.itl file you just copied to the external.

  • Feature Request -Support For All Library Assets Formats

    I would like to request an update to the application to allow full support for all Library asset formats.
    I have recently started using Comp CC to draft layouts. I have found that none of my graphics Library assets can be used due to their format type. This has limited the usefulness of Comp CC as many of my assets are Illustrator vector graphic.

    Thanks for opening our eyes. I spent a good hour trying to place vector graphics into an image place holder before I posted.
    In my defense I find this method less than intuitive. I don't understand Adobe's thinking on separate methods of placing vector graphics & raster graphics. I personally treat all graphics the same vector or raster the are both graphics. This has been the standard workflow for placing image into DTP apps since the beginning.

Also, for anyone having problems with the parameters - we used the exact same parameters listed in Peoplebooks or on the delivered virusscan.xml file, just update the IP address.

  • How do I get my artwork to show up when I move library to second computer?

    Like many, I've spent a lot of time getting my music and artwork correct and the way I want it.
    I want to move it to a second computer but no matter how I try, much of the artwork doesn't follow the music.
    iTune's "Get Album Artwork" will not find many of the missing ones and in some cases gets the wrong one or of low quality.
    How do you duplicate iTunes exactly?
    The apple support I've talked hasn't been able to help.
    Thanks!

    I have my itunes in a shared folder. ITunes is all that is in the folder
    Exactly what iTunes folders and files are in the Shared folder?
    Is the folder named iTunes or *iTunes music* (or iTunes media).
    The iTunes folder with library files and artwork files and music are stored in /user/music/iTunes/ by default.
    If you change iTunes prefs Advanced - iTunes music (or media) folder to another location, the media files are stored in this new location but the iTunes library files and artwork are still located in /user/music/iTunes/.
    I may have deleted songs but not trashed them. As far as I know it's almost impossible to find them now.
    Use this script -> List Music Folder Files Not Added v2.0
    This script recursively searches user-selected folders for files not added to iTunes and creates a text file listing their file paths.

  • IMac display with second computer?

    Is anyone driving the 27" iMac display with a second computer?  If so, can you switch between the iMac and the second computer to see what is happening on each machine?

    Yes you are.  The two machines I use are mini displayport.  Thunderbolt must hook to Thunderbolt.  I wasn't thinking of the new iMac 27".   Old timers moment.

  • Support for using CS5 with Joomla

    So far, the information to get dreamweaver working with Joomla has been non-existent and/or extremely vague.  I've spent my entire Sunday, trying to simply get this to work.
    I ran a local server and followed the adobe tutorial, I uploaded my mysql database file and I either get an error saying that the dynamic-related files could not be reached etc etc etc. error, or I get simply a blank page when I try to view it in the localhost/FOLDER file.
    I am lost.  There is little support for this specific task.  It's my only interest in DW considering I work exclusively with Content Management Systems.  So far setting this up is time consuming, confusing, and well, it simply doesn't work.w
    IS THERE understandable documentation available for setting up the most TALKED ABOUT feature of DWCS5!?!?!?  Is it really even possible?  At this point I am starting even doubt the validity of the posts of people claiming they got this to work.  So far I get a string of unpredictable errors in an extremely complicated and confusing workflow, again, just trying to get the most talked about feature of CS5 to work as advertised.  I'm so frustrated, words cannot express.

    Hello out there? Can anybody be so kind an post a link to a good dokumentation? I am experiancing just the same problem and yes - I am frustrated, too. Pleeeese!!!
    Thank you very much for any little hint.

  • Support for using TNSNAMES with Oracle Thin Driver?

    Hi.
    In the official Oracle JDBC FAQ (http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_faq.htm), they say that from the "10.2.0.1.0" release, the Thin driver hast support for using TNSNAMES entries. Thus, you can use URLs like this:
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@GL (thin driver, but connection info defined in tnsnames.ora)
    Does anyone know how could I use an URL like this? Do I have to install the Oracle client? or can I simply copy a tnsnames.ora file someplace on disk and specify its ubication through an environment variable or something like that?
    I haven't find util information in the Oracle site....any ideas are much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I just found some info here:

  • IPhone support for H.264 with B-Frame

    Hi All,
    In the iPhone documentation, it is mentioned that iphone supports:
    - H.264 Baseline Profile Level 3.0 video, up to 640 x 480 at 30 fps. Note that B frames are not supported in the Baseline profile.
    Are there plans to support B-frames in the near future ? Do you think iPhone 3G will have B frames supported ?
    Thank you very much,
    kusno mudiarto

    As noted in the above article, support for H.264 in the native HTML5 player on Windows 7 launched 7 weeks ago in Firefox 21.
    The forum software detected your Firefox as version 18. Is that correct?
    Version 18 is not secure; Mozilla discloses [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html security flaws] after each new release. Is something holding you back from upgrading to Firefox 22? Please let us know so we can suggest solutions or workarounds.
    If Help > About Firefox shows Firefox 22.0, you may need to clear the preference that is misreporting your version number. See: [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]].

  • Why does firefox drop support for a plugin with an update

    Why the H*ll does Firefox drop support for a plugin when there is an update in Firefox.
    FF4 has reported that 6 of my plugins that work fine in 3.6 are now not supported. !! This is a joke, and happens regularly.
    As a user (a highly IT literate one) this is annoying and frustrating, and from a design standpoint, unprofessional.

    Plugins as in Flash, Java, quicktime or such or do you mean Extensions ?
    Plenty of Plugins seems to be detected and in use by Firefox 4.0 just fine according to your system details by your post.
    If you meant Extensions then check for updates, look at addons.mozilla.org or the Extension homepage for to see if the author has provided a update.
    Generally Extensions can need anywhere from a simple maxversion bump to a lot more for it to work properly on a new Major version of Firefox depending on what the Extension does.
    It is professional actually as extensions that were not actually compatible may actually cause problems big or small if they were to still just ''work'' in a new Major version release so hence the need for them to be properly up to date on any changes and hopefully the extension author is quick about it.

  • How to edit a library on second computer and then merge it back?

    Hi there,
    My main 500GB library is on an older Mac Mini and I've got a snappy new Macbook Pro. I want to keep the library on the Mini but it's getting too big for the HD there.
    I've done some tests with Duplicate Annihilator (DA) and it looks like I can really shrink the library by removing dupes.
    I've tried running DA on the mini but it would take several days to complete and I can't seem to keep my family from opening Aperture during that time. According to DA docs it's very dangerous to have both DA and Aperture running against a library at the same time.
    So, I think I want to:
    - Copy or Export my full library to an attached USB drive
    - Connect that drive to the snappier MacBook Pro
    - Run DA against the library on the Macbook Pro and then (carefully/selectively) delete the duplicates it finds
    - Return the USB drive to the Mac Mini
    - Import and/or Merge the smaller libary with the original library, hopefully ending up with the dupes removed from the original Mac Mini library
    To do that I first tried selecting the 'Photos' view in the Library, Select All, and then 'Export Smart Album as New Library' but it seems to have stopped before completing. There's a file in the target folder called "Aperture Photos Export_exporting" that's only 40GB.
    So, my questions:
    - Does the above process make sense?
    - If I simply copy the entire Aperture Library to the USB drive (vs Export) will I be able to Merge when I bring it back, or will Merge only work with a library that was Exported?
    Thanks for any tips.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Léonie, perhaps there is an issue with your system?
    Hopefully not, I am seeing the same on three different Macs with Aperture 3.5.1.  Andy.
    My network is too slow right now to download your movie, sorry - I could not yet view your video.
    But I experimented a bit further and found that occasionally the deleted files will be removed from the original library, but not reliably. It seems to depend on the edits done and the way the deleted images are trashed.
    When I do not empty the trash in the exported library, sometimes Aperture will remove the deleted photos when merging, but I could never get it to remove the deleted photos, if I emptied the trash in the imported/exported library.
    Here is an example:
    1. A test project to be exported as library
    2. The exported library after deleting images and emptying the trash
    3. Reimporting and merging
    4. Selecting to solve conflicts by keeping the imported library
    5. After merging, still all seven image versions.
    The only way that merging sometimes did remove the deleted image versions was, when I did not empty Aperture's trash in the imported library, and when I edited a few images before reimporting.
    KIrby, I see your traces in this thread. Do you have time to try to checkout what happens in your Aperture version? That would be great.
