Syncing itunes across three different operating systems.

Hello
I use itunes on my macbookpro, powerbook, and my pc desktop workstation.
I would love to sync all my itunes library and playlists via wifi,
is this possible? If so how could I go about syncing all my music?
If there already is a relevant post in regards to this could somebody
please direct me to that link?
Thank you

You have got to be kidding! I have been trying for months to do this between my three machines. What exactly is the point to having an iTunes account for multiple machines if you can not have the same library across them? If this isn't the stupidest thing I've come across in years, honest to Pete...
What if I use a thumb drive to keep the directories manually synced? Or does apple go the extra step to prevent this too? Can you point to a library through the intranet? I could just put up a server and point my machines to it, boy wouldn't that be speedy and elegant.
I just want to scream this is so annoying. I might as well go back to a system that works, a Windows phone... The iPhone isn't that much nicer than my old tilt.

  • IPod touch erased when I updated and synced it on a different operating system.  Forgot password to backup file.  Windows 7 is a bust for the newest version of itunes.  Tired of fooling with it, so I tried to update and sync ipod to hubby's laptop.

    Sooooooo sick of trying to fix the bug with the newest version of itunes and Windows 7.  I'm over it.  Tried syncing ipod to hubby's laptop.  When update and sync was complete, all my apps, music, and pictures were gone.  When I open my itunes account on his computer, they are gone from there as well.  I cannot open itunes on my computer because I cannot fix the compatability issue.  Don't tell me how to go to 'computer', click 'program files' etc. etc......  Did that, unchecked compatability mode and nothing is fixed.  About to take a hammer to darned thing.

    Also, I have forgotten the password to my backup file, which could solve everthing.  I don't really remember ever setting a password for the backup file.  Tried every password I've ever used with this device.

  • Exchange Datasfrom different operating systems

    Guys ?
    Without any jailbreaking do iPhones can exchange datas from different operating systems like Android ?

    Sorry no not for music.
    Music needs to be in your itunes library and then sync your phone to it.

  • HELP!! Authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems

    My BF installed Win 7 operation system on his laptop yesterday and re-authorized it when he used iTunes. However, when he finished authorization, a dialog block showing that "*Including this one, you have authorised two computers out of your available 5*" appeared; what's worse, when he connected his iPhone to the laptop, it deleted all the bought apps in the iPhone, instead of synchronizating.
    I also want to install Win 7 operation system, but I'm afraid that the same thing would happen again (to my iTouch).
    We're quite confused that why the authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems is counted as two times. Friends who know please tell us whether this is the case.. If not, please tell us how to deal with it as we frequently re-install operation system for quicker operation.

    It's the *operating system* that is authorised, not the particular user profile or the hardware. Before upgrading/reinstalling deauthorise and you won't run out...

  • Jvm 1.4,1.5 default memory usage in Ram in different operating systems

    Hi ,
    Can anyone help me with the default memory occupied by Jvm in different operating systems ?
    I have practically seen that jdk1.4,jdk1.5,jdk1.3 has around 64 Mb as the
    default size on 32 bit machines .
    I am in need of the similar data for jvms on Solaris,Unix and Linux machines . Also much curious to know about the default memory occupied on 64 bit machines. It would be really great if the statistical data is present in any link .
    Thanks and Regards
    Suman

    Default Heap sizes on 64 bit JVM are by default 30% bigger then the 32bit version to accomodate the extra memory used by 64 bit object pointers instead of 32 bit.
    This link plus documents close to it answers most questions.

  • Java Program in Different Operation Systems

    Just one question? can I use a java program (.jar) compiled in windows, in my solaris only by copying the .jar , or do I need to compile it with the solaris SDK?
    Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for my ignorance.
    Javier

    Hi,
    It is not required to recompile bcoz the .jar file contains .class files which are independent of Operating system which will be taken care (interpreted) by JVM.
    Actually there is different JVM's for different operating systems(Windows 98,Unix,OS/2). No need to have differend java class file for different operating system. Pls, remember Java is platform independent language.

  • Why is DPM 2012 R2 splitting this Co-located Protection Group Set across three different tapes?

    I have 10 protection groups that ran Saturday night.  I have put information about them in the following table:
    I extracted the data in the table using Get-DPMProtectionGroup CmdLet and the job information from the Monitoring page of the DPM admin console.  As you can see from the tape barcode, DPM wrote the first four PGs to one tape, then started a second
    tape, and finally failed when starting a third because it had run out of free tapes.
    All of the protection groups are assigned to the same "Co-Located Protection Group Set" in the "Tape Optimization Setup" dialog box.
    Prior to the jobs running, I painstakingly ensured that each of the Protection Group's "Select Long-Term Goals" and "Select Library and Tape Details" screens are identical as follows:
    Prior to running the jobs I had already disabled autoclean on the tape library.
    I have checked to see if the tape drive is reporting IO error 0x8007045D using the method described in this blog post:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/dpm/archive/2012/05/14/things-you-can-do-to-help-data-protection-manager-utilize-your-tapes-full-capacity.aspx
    There seems to be no mention of 0x8007045D or -2147023779 in any of the MSDPM*.Errlog files.
    These are LTO6 tapes with a capacity of 2.5 TB each.  The total data for all the jobs put together is less than 300GB.
    Why is DPM 2012 R2 splitting these protection groups across three different tapes? 
    What else should I check for that might cause DPM to start a new tape?

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks for taking a look at the logs.  I just wanted to point out that there were actually two changes made just before collocation succeeded:
    Write Period and Expiry Tolerance were increase
    Full Verbose logging was enabled
    This technet article states that Full Verbose logging affects performance.  If the problem with collocation is caused by a race condition then it is
    possible that enabling logging actually caused collocation to succeed. At this point there doesn’t seem to be any evidence pointing to which of the two changes resulted in collocation succeeding.
    I propose I run the following tests to differentiate the two:
    Test #1 - Collocation Confirmation
    Repeat last weekend's test to confirm that successful collocation wasn't an anomaly.  Configuration:
    full verbose logging: Enabled
    Expiry Tolerance: 1 year
    Write Period: 1 year
    Test #2 - Logging Only
    Test to see whether enabling Full Verbose logging enabled collocation to succeed.  Configuration:
    full verbose logging: Enabled
    Expiry Tolerance: 7 days
    Write Period: 6 day
    Thanks for your help,
    Alex

  • Memory Allocation under Different Operating Systems

    Hello
    What is the exact behavior of java -Xmsn -Xmxn under different operating systems?
    I am running my application on windows and linux.
    In linux i specify java -Xms512M -Xmx512M and it seems to only initially allocate 22M (i have enough space on the machine).
    I also do the same on windows and it seems to allocate 97M or so.
    Does any understand what exactly happens when you allocate min and max memory on different operating systems? Are these options fully functioning?
    Thanks

    AS far as I know -Xms is the minimum size of the heap, and when the VM will be created it'll bild a heap of this size.
    Ussually on servers this parameters are fixed to the same size, to the limit of memory that the machine has. This has one advantage: everytime the heap increases your application may be stopped because of the need of ollocate new memory. If you make the initial size of the heap to bhe equal to the minimum this never will occur, despite the starupo of the application will be slower due to the need of allocating big amounts of Ram.
    About what you have seen, I'm afraid you are doing something wrong. This parameter works, and if you stated that -Xms128m, the initial heap of your aplication will be this (I've just checked it under Windows 2000).

  • Numbers of Oracle DB usage on different operating systems

    Hi all,
    I am looking for numbers that breakdown in what proportion Oracle DB is used in different operating systems, specifically the percentage of use in each group of operating systems.
    - Windows
    - OpenVMS
    - Linux
    - Unixes.
    - Others
    Could someone provide some numbers or a link to where I could get the information?
    I am especially interested in windows and OpenVMS...
    Best wishes to all
    Andre

    Hi Andy,
    I'm seeing lot of companies prefer Unix(Solaris, HP, Linux) as a production. My experience working with 3 big clients like Cingular (USA), Orange (UK) & SKY(UK) they have many solaris oracle and few HP oracle (Orange).

  • English download  of Itunes on a Japanese Operating system

    I have tried several times to download the english version of Itunes on my japanese operating system but it automatically downloads the japanese version of Itunes. Is ther ea way to download the English version??? I am using a Sony Vaio with japanese based Windows XP.

    There is only one version of iTunes but you can select the language you want to use by going to the Edit menu > Preferences > General tab as explained in this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.

  • Multicasting using different operating systems

    Hi,
    I was testing the multicast example from the Java Tutorial (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/datagrams/broadcasting.html). The example does not seem to work with machines running different operating systems. I tried running the example server on Solaris machines and the client on Linux machines, and vice versa. The only machines that receive data are the machines running the same OS. The machines are on the same subnet and are all using Java v1.3.1.
    Any ideas on how to get this working?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Did more testing. Seems to work between Linux and Windows (NT/2000). But not between Solaris and anything.

  • Using different operating systems?

    Can compiled code be moved to a machine with a different operating system and still run ok?

    Yes. You should beasble to write a prog in Windows and Run it on a Mac. When you compile it only compile some of the code. Once the program is run the rest of the code compiles. Each OS has its own Java Virtual Machine or Java Runtime Environment

  • DB Restoration in different Operating system

    Dear Experts,
    In SAP supporting Database, which DB will allow the database backup that can be restored in different Operating System Platform.
    Say for example: I will take a database backup on windows system and i want to restore the same in different OS other than windows.
    BR,
    Jai

    Generally: Not supported.
    Each operating system stores the data in different block sizes plus it may have different endianesses.
    For Oracle there are various options:
    - OOO (see Note 1508271 - Oracle to Oracle Online Migration - Triple-O)
    - transportable tablepsaces (Note 1367451 - Oracle 10g: Transportable Database)
    - standard R3load procedure (hetergoeneous sytem copy)
    For all those migrations you need to have a certified migration consultant on-site (see http//service.sap.com/osdbmigration).

  • Just wondering if I can have a different operating system......

    Just wondering if I can have a different operating system on an external drive....
    You know have Tiger in the main, and Leopard on an external. I always thought that the you can only do that with the 2 internal drives....
    Thx....

    I believe you can do that, but for an external drive to be bootable, I think it has to be either FW or eSATA.
