Opening ipod mp3 files on a different computer?

My friend brought over his ipod to show me. We hooked it up to my mac to check out what would happen if I wanted to copy his stuff to my itunes library. Just got a mesage asking if I wanted to replace the stuff in his library with the stuff in my library. Nothing happened. Tried to open up the files in the ipod on the desktop icon and there was nothing in there. BUT. Hooked the ipod up to my windows pc and I could open and play the song files and everything. What gives?

This is illegal?
Yes, sharing copyrighted material such as music is not legal. Your friend owns a license for that content... not you. It would be illegal for both of you to have that content when only one of you paid for it.
But, why can I authorize music that I bought on itunes to be played on 5 other computer's?
You can authorize 5 of YOUR OWN computers. You can't legally authorize your friends computer to play your purchased tracks.
My freind should be able to authorize his music the be played on mine
Not legally.
He should be able to play his dam ipod where ever he wants!
He can. No one is telling anyone where they can and can't play their iPod.
It is legal to make copies of matireal you have bought yourself isn't it?
For yourself, yes. You can make all the backup copies you want, if you're the only one using them.
Wouldn't copying my friends music be legal then?
No, this is a violation of copyright law.

I'm opening a garageband file on a different computer than the one it was made on, and my drum loops are playing as low pitched beeps instead of the jazzy brushes I want. I believe my version is more up-to-date than what I used first. How can I fix this?

I believe I said it all in the question...

Could it be that you had more instruments on the old computer? Or haven't correctly installed the instruments on the new one?
Obviously, GB hasn't assigned a drum instrument to the track that the drum notes are on (my guess: since it doesn't have the desired drum set.) Press cmd-I to make the track info pane visible and pick one of the drum sets for that track.

You will havwe to sign up for some service that supports rights
management, use protected PDFs via LiveCyle/ Acrobat Connect or learn how
to create your own ePub stuff using Digital Publishing Suite. In any case,
it will probably cost you money upfront before you make any revenue.

I cannot view PDF in Firefox at the first time but once I manually open the PDF file from my local computer, I can view other PDF files via Firefox webbrowser

I install Adobe Acrobat 9 in my laptop which runs on windows 7. I use Firefox 3.6.8 and have the problem with the PDF file. The problem is I cannot open the PDF file in Firefox web browser at the first time I launch firefox. It shows a warning box without any message. Only OK button is shown so I can close it. However, if I manage to open the PDF file from my local computer by just using adobe acrobat itself then the PDF can be opened in the Firefox web browser. I followed the instruction on the mozilla help but nothing works for me. The problem still exists. I wonder if anyone have the same problem like me and know how to solve this. Thank you so much

Hi there!
I cannot help you, but I think we have a common problem: We got a system here running Vista SP1 with Acrobat 9 standard on it. When we open a pdf file it works normally, but when we open another pdf file, we see the first one in that second window.
Think that missing option to watch several files within a single window-thing messed up more than meets the eye ... but as we just purchased the 15 licenses, we have to use version 9.
I didn't find any clues on this problem, but I will post any new hints I get.

Opening TC for restore form a different computer

We have a computer down at the Apple store, which backs up to TC each night. How can we restore some of those files to a different computer? I cannot find the way to get in to the account for our other computer.
Many thanks in advance.

In the upper right hand corner of then menu bar near the clock you will see a Time Machine icon (clock face with circular arrow going counter clockwise) Click on this icon while holding the alt/option key, this will give you the option to "Browse other Time Machine disk"
this will allow you to access the Time Machine back up of another MAC OS X 10.5 Leopard system using the same Time Capsule.

I cannot open a website that I could open yesterday. I used a different computer to access the same website, and it worked. How do I fix my computer?

What happens when you try to access the site? Can you access it from a different computer on the same network? Your profile says you have a Mac Pro, but you posted in the MacBook Pro area. If you have a MacBook Pro, can you access the site from another network, such as a public hotspot?

How do i open iweb files on a different computer than what I created them on? - Domain file can't be opened

I started a web page in the lab at school and want to open the file here on my computer. I saved the application support/iweb/domain file and have tried to replace the old one with it, but that doesnt work. I looked up where you can delete the last string in the com.apple.iweb.plist file but that would not work either. I've got the site published to a folder and the domain file saved and with me but thats all

Put the copied domain file somewhere, or rename it and put it in the Application Support/iWeb folder, and double-click it. That should open it.

HOW CAN I ACCESS MY IPODS MP3 FILES

i deleted my music folder by mistake and now only have all my mp3's on my ipod, how do i get them off my ipod to a new music folder ...please can anyone help me ?

There is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not have caught up with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.

There is a new function in iTunes 7 under File, "Transfer Purchases from iPod" which transfers iTMS purchases. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. If it is set to automatically update you will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No* (or "Cancel" if you are using iTunes 7). Pressing "Yes" (or Erase and Sync in iTunes 7) will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. In iTunes 7 Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
You can also use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys (on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘) keys). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer.
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for quite a small outlay.

When i open an mp3 file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

when I open a music file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

If you use iTunes' default settings then when you add a file to iTunes it places a copy of the file in the iTunes media folder and it leaves the original in place. The exception is when you drag it to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder.
It does not convert the file. You can delete the original if you wish.

PLEASE HELP-HOW DOES A LOADED IPOD GET INTRODUCED TO A DIFFERENT COMPUTER

without losing the music on it? What has to happen, how, and when does it have to happen. I sold my IPOD and the new owner does not want to lose any of the music. People have written in that it can be done and it cant be done? please help. Jeff

I have found that the format that the ipod is originally introduced to is the only format that will recognize the ipod. So if you format your ipod on a mac when you first get it, only other mac computers will recognize it and not windows computers. However, if you introduced it to a windows computer first, the ipod can be recognized by any machine. This is what my previous experiences shows. If you want the ipod to be recognized by any computer, you must restore the ipod and format it to windows or whichever computer the owner has (this will result in the loss of music and other files). Sorry.
Hope this Helps!

Opening the same file in by different users

As a newbie to InDesign I got a workflow question.
Working with a team of 6 designers, we would like all to work in the same InDesign document. We need to create a big salebooks book, therefore it is necessary to open the same file in different copy of indesign?
Currently we are working with CS5 and when I have a indd file open, none of my coworkers are able to open the file except for a copy. I understand that really working together on the same file is something you could do. But can’t be like in MS-Office? The moment you open a indd file which is already opened by a other user, you will get a message and you can then either to open as read only or a notification when the other user is ready editing the file
Is this possible? Or do we need some additional tools?

I would actually be surprised if there are no workflow management plugins that do this.
As you imply, it's really not that hard to do.
Making it look really slick would probably require a plugin.
But you could do it fairly easily with some simple scripting, a few hours of work.
One script that runs whenever anyone opens or closes a file and registers that open/closure with a server.
Plus some extra stuff to deal with messaging.
