Share on two computers

Can my wife and I share a subscription on two computers at the same time?

You can install subscriptions on up to two computers if it is for personal use, but beyond that, I would recommend Creative Cloud for Teams http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/teams.html?promoid=KBYQU

Can't share between two computers, and I've tried everything in this forum

Two Computers - iMac G3, Intel MacBook Pro, both running 10.4.9 and iTunes 7.1.1. I've got iTunes Firewall through port 3689 turned on on both. Both are on a wireless connection on the same subnet. I've got Share library" turned on in iTunes and also "look for shared libraries". Still can't get the libraries to show up. This has worked in the past, but I haven't used it much. The MacBook is new and this is the first time trying to do this, but it did work with the PowerBook it replaced.
Could it be an authorization thing?
At my wit's end on this, and wife is getting P.O'd that I'm spending so much time on it instead of what I should be doing. Save my marriage and help me out.

I've got a similar problem. I have just copied my music library to an external HD connected to my Airport Extreme Base Station. I would like for both computers to share a single library so that I could import a CD, or buy a song from the iTunes Store, on either computer and the library file would be updated. At the moment, both computers can play songs from the external HD, but, for example, if I add a new song to the library from my G4, then turn on my MacBook Pro and open iTunes, the new song doesn't appear.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Both computers running OS 10.4.9 with iTunes 7.1.1. I've tried sharing the libraries as Micalk mentioned... no dice.

Home Share on two computers

I've been able to set up home sharing on two computers but the library doesnt show up on the second computer? Both computers have homeshare enabled.

Hello scollins60,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting

"Error -3150"
This alert is often related to a lost connection to the iTunes Store.
If you encounter this alert and you have verified you have a connection to the Internet using Wi-Fi, please reviewAirPort and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference.
If the issue persists, and you're using iTunes for Windows, you may need to flush your DNS and remove pop-up or ad-blockers.
Finally, this can occur due to timeouts caused by security software.
Best of luck,

Is it possible to share 1 bluetooth keypad and 1 mouse pad between two computers in target mode?

Is it possible to share 1 bluetooth keypad and 1 mouse pad between two computers in target mode? Grab a drink and let me tell you my story.
I purchased two computers... an iMac 27" i7 3.4 16GB RAM and a Mac mini 2.3 i5 8 GB RAM. Both have Thunderbolt capability and are in fact connected by thunderbolt. I have 3 problems...
1. My Mac mini WILL NOT recognize any bluetooth keyboard. Let me back up for clarification. I set my iMac up first. No problems there. I then went on to set up my mac mini. A couple of interesting things happened concering bluetooth activity. First thing is that the keypad, which was already paired with my iMac wouldn't be recognized by the mac mini, and yet my bluetooth mouse which was paired with my iMac became paired with my mac mini and thus wouldn't be recognized by my iMac anymore. I had to go to my back room and dig out my other bluetooth mouse so that my iMac would at least recognize my second mouse. So now I have two "mice"presently. One for the mac mini, the other for the iMac. Thankfully I also had a USB keypad for my mac mini. My bluetooth keypad is still paired with my iMac but won't pair with my mac mini, which brings me to another question....
2. CAN 1 KEYPAD AND 1 MOUSE PAIR WITH TWO DIFFERENT COMPUTERS SO THAT WHEN I GO INTO TARGET MODE VIA THUNDERBOLT I CAN USE THE SAME KEYPAD AND MOUSE FOR BOTH COMPUTERS? Anybody have some thoughts on that problem?
3. WHY IN THE WORLD IS MY MOUSE CURSOR DISAPPEARING EVERYTIME I EXIT TARGET MODE VIA PASSWORD AND COMMAND F2. I'm using target mode to access my mac mini. But when I exit target mode to get back into my iMac I'm looking at my iMac screen but I can't see the mouse pointer! I can move the pointer around even though I can't see it. Wierd. And this has apparently been going on for some time with other users for over a year. I am presently completely up to date on Lion updates. Both systems are running 10.7.4. Does anyone have a solution or heard a rumor of a solution coming soon regarding the invisible mouse cursor "curse". I hate having to restart my iMac everytime I exit out of target mode just so I can get my mouse cursor visible again.
Food for thought.... Wouldn't it be really cool to have a target mode capability to see your other computers desktops in seperate window screens on your main display. You then could go back and forth from each window by just double clicking or by certain key commands. You could drag and drop from desktop to desktop. Tell me this is coming soon.
Thanks

Can two computers share same ITunes library over Airdisk?

Hi all,
I have a Macbook and a PowerPC G5 and a Drobo (external hard drive) hooked up to my AEBS with only ITunes music stored on it.
I want to be able to edit and browse my ITunes library from both my G5 (which I can already do) and my MacBook (which I can't). When I try to change my ITunes library location from within my MacBook, nothing shows up. It's a blank library, even though I can edit and browse the Drobo (as an Airdisk) through the finder. How can I edit and browse my ITunes library from my Macbook if my G5 is also using the same library? Two more quick points...
1) I have tried the "sharing" feature and don't want to use it. It doesn't allow editing of my library and won't show cover art.
2) The above situation happens whether my G5 ITunes is open or closed.
Thanks everybody for your help.

They aren't using a single library. Each computer is using its own copy and you have two sets of library files. It can certainly be done that way but if between copy sessions you edit a bit of each library then it is a bit of a muddle trying to make sure your versions are synchronized with each other. For example, ratings are stored only in the .itl file, so if you rate a song on your second computer it will get lost the next time you copy over from your first.

Can two computers share one iTunes library?

I am trying to map out a new plan for how we store and play music via iTunes at home. Currently, our music is stored on a windows PC and played via iTunes and an airport express. I recently bought a new macbook and am considering an airport extreme with the hope that I can store the music on a hard drive attached to the airport extreme and play music from either computer. Can the two computers share one library? I already have home sharing turned on and can access my library from the macbook, but if possible, I would prefer having the hard drive separate of the desktop. Any reason this won't work?
Thanks!

Imap wasn't designed for this kind of multi user situation. It assumes that you the account owner will be using it to manage one account via multiple devices. So once you have read a message it has been read, regardless of which device you were using at the time.
You appear to be describing a situation where you want more than one user to read each message, without anyone knowing if anyone else has read it or even dealt with it. Frankly, I can't imagine a set of circumstances where this workflow would make sense or be useful.
You can do various things such as manually setting messages as unread, or moving them from one folder to another to indicate that they have been processed, but much of this relies on users being thorough and conscientious.
You may need to be running your own server to do this sort of email message managing, if you really need to fork a message so it gets to multiple recipients. Managing which users see a particular message is a job for a server, not the end-user's email client.

My assistant and I are using two Lightrooms (i.e. two serial numbers) and need to share between our two computers. I provide originals to her onto a flash drive. She tags them and returns them to me. I then copy the photos from her flash drive onto my computer and load them in my LR. The photos appear but witthout any editing or tagging. We need to be able to have her working on the photos on her computer with her copy of LR and me on my computer with my version of LR being able to access what is already tagged and given back to me. This seems hard. We need advice on if it is at all possible to have two computers simultaneously working on LR . I bought her her own version because I was told at the time of purchasing that that was the only way to share. Please advise urgently! Thanks.

Sounds like your assistant isn't instructing Lightroom to write the tagging and editing to the files themselves, so wehn the files return to you, they don't have editing and tagging information. She need to select the photos in Lightroom and then Ctrl-S (Cmd-S on Mac). Or alternatively turn on the option to autmoatically write this information to the files.
If you are using RAW photos, then this information will be written to a sidecar XMP file, and your assistant must provide you with the sidecar file. If these photos are not RAW photos, then the information is written directly into the photo file itself.
Lightroom wasn't designed to be a multi-user program, and so it is truly not possible to have two people working on the same catalog at once. The way you are doing things, as modified above, is probably the way to go.
As an alternative, you can transfer (portions of) catalogs as well as photos back and forth and then all of these issues disappear, but a catalog might be rather large for a flash drive (or maybe not, it depends)

Is it possible to connect an older Power Mac (running OS 10.5.8) to an iMac running 10.9.5. I want to share the monitor, keyboard and mouse and switch between the two computers.

How to Best Share Music Between Two Computers

My wife and I have two computers with two different iTunes libraries. We'd like to share music. What's the most time efficient way to authorize our respective computers for each other's songs?
I think I could go to the various folders in the file system on my wife's computer, copy each song I want, and store it in a new folder on my own computer. But this seems really time consuming for 500 songs. Is there a faster way, like importing directly from her library after I've enabled it to share?
Thanks.

Unless both computers are on all the time then each computer will need its own copy of any music in the iTunes library. An external neetwork drive may be a good option. Set both computers' iTunes to store music there then the files will be available to both at any time. If that is not an option then you will need to continue copying files from one machine to the other.

Can I share documents between two computers?

Hello All:
I have two computers (MB Pro and MB Air), an iPad and and iPhone, and now I have converted everything over to iCloud. My calendars and mail sync across all devices no problem. But, I want to be able to sync my documents the same way across all devices. Is this possible?
As an example, I want to create a Pages document on my MB Air and save it to iCloud. Then, I want to be able to open in from my MB Pro without having the iPad in between.
Please tell me this is doable.

How do i share files between two computers using the ethernet?

i have bought a cord that is ethernet to ethernet. i do not understand how or where to go after the two computers are seemingly connected. i have a bunch of photos on iphoto id like to transfer. thank you.

Out of curiosity do you already have a home network? If so do both computers connect to the network? In this case just use File Sharing which is enabled in the Sharing preferences.

How do I share my library between my two computers?

I am on business in Montana while my family is at home in Portland. I purchased some apps and some music with my itunes account on my laptop here in Montana because I thought the purchases would automatically also be available on my desktop in Portland. However, my purchases are only showing on my laptop here in Montana. How do I get these new purchases to my family in Portland. They want these purchases now, but I won't be back in town for another 2 weeks. Please help. Thanks.

They need to sign into the itunes store with your account credentials. You have to be OK with them knowing your password.
Then they need to find the same exact app and pretend they are going to buy it again, and press the buy button. A popup should appear saying it's already been purchased. If they don't get THAT notice, perhaps they haven't found the same exact app.
My advice is to just buy stuff on one PC. I wouldn't even buy stuff on an iPhone, but that's me. I'm surprised you posted you'd already connected the iPhone to the new laptop. Didn't everything on it get erased? Apple designs iPods to only sync with one PC. If you want to sync with more than on PC, you have to jump though some hoops like this

How to Share Dropbox folder of Pr CS6 project between two computers

I have one computer that has a dropbox folder and project as c:\dropbox\prproject\proj1 and another computer with z:\dropbox\prproject\proj1
When I open the project for the first time on the second computer, some of the assets are there and some are not. I want to be able work on computer 1 for a while, close it, go home, then continuje to work on computer 2, close the project, then go back to computer 1 the next day.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Yes, thanks for asking. I do have a solution. My directory structure on the two computers is quite different so making them the same so I can work with the same premier project is awkward. I was just hoping I would not have to go through that for each project. To me, it's like telling us that we can not move the project from one computer to another unless the directory below the relative path is identical. I would have thought a sophisticated product like Adobe Premiere would have a better way to handle that.
Say for example I send a project to a colleague who does not have the same name as me and has something like "elena/mydocs" instead of peter/mydocs. Seems like we would be stuck then.
