To much music on my laptop.  Sync and delete my CD's without losing next time I sync.

I have a new ipod classic, I love it, I have downloaded my personal CD collection on my itunes account and snyced my ipod.  All that music is slowing down my laptop.  If I delete my music from my laptop is there a way to sync new music without losing the old stuff?

  • ICloud on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before?

    My nephew set up his own iCloud account on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before deleting his account?? I don't want to lose a single thing...I'm afraid to delete his iCloud account, and risk losing EVERYTHING I have on my phone. Is there another way to save everything without the risk of losing everything from deleting his iCloud account?

    Deleting the iCloud account from your phone only deletes the account and any data you are syncing with the account (that is, any data that is set to On in Settings>iCloud).  However, when you delete the account you are prompted about what to do with the iCloud data.  If you want to keep it on your phone, be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Also, be sure to save any photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else before deleting the account.  To do this, open the photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    Deleting the account will not touch any other data on your phone (music, apps, etc.).

    Go to http://appleid.apple.com.
    To clarify, the mere act of changing the Apple ID on the device will not remove any content. But you cannot update the apps or re-sync them if they get deleted without the old Apple ID. It may be best to download them again with the new ID.

  • HT4061 How do I consolidate purchases from two different ids that are on the same bank account, and eliminate the extra id without losing any purchases?

    How do I consolidate purchases from two different ids that are on the same bank account, and eliminate the extra id without losing any purchases? I want my music to match on both ipad and computer.

    Purchases are forever tied to the AppleID they were bought with. There is currently no way to consolidate AppleIDs. Sorry.

  • HT1414 How do i restore and update my iphone 4S without losing all of my photos and videos and contacts?

    how do i restore and update my iphone 4S without losing my contacts photos and videos??

    Use the device as designed.
    Pictures and videos taken with the device are designed to be regularly copied off the device to a computer.
    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Media should exist in iTunes on the computer.
    If the device has been used as designed then at most, only a miniscule amount of data is at risk.  That data being pics/vids taken since the last time they were copied off the device.  Also at risk is app data created since the last backup to iTunes or iCloud.
    If the device is in recovery mode and it has not been used as designed, it is too late to salvage the data.

    I have about 200 pics that I downloaded onto my iPad 2 from a folder on my computer that crashed recently. How do I update and back up my iPad without losing those pics? Pics of my 4 beautiful kids... do not want to lose these!

    What would you have done if you didn't have an iPad?
    Photos on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data. The iPad is not designed to intended to be a backup storage device.
    The transfer of photos from a computer to an iOS device via the iTunes sync process is a one way transfer only - from the computer to the device. Photos are optimized for viewing on the device the photos are being transferred to - the original resolution of the photos is changed, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported.
    There are some 3rd party paid utilities that support transferring these photos in the opposite direction.

  • I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks.  I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on.  Please help?

    Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
    So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
    The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
    is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
    no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
    take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
    project in the earlier version program.
    If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
    right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
    (Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
    Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Thank you.

  • I have a Mac G4 with a 10.3.9 OS and I want to update without losing any filters from my Photoshop 7. Should I go to 10,4 or higher?

    I have a Mac G4 with a 10.3.9 OS and I want to update without losing any filters from my Photoshop 7. Should I go to 10.4 or higher?

    Why do you need to update at all?
    In order to upgrade you will have to purchase a retail copy of either Tiger or Leopard neither of which are easy to come by, and they tend to be a bit expensive.  And, there's no assurance that the version of PS you now use will be compatible with a newer version of OS X.

  • How can I quit (close) Photoshop and keep all windows so that the next time I open Photoshop the fil

    How can I quit (close) Photoshop and keep all windows so that the next time I open Photoshop all the files that I had open are there already in the same position as when I closed Photoshop?
    I've been a Fireworks user for over 10 years and just switched to Photoshop. I cannot find a setting that will enable all my file windows to reopen when I quit Photoshop. This is really a problem since I often work on several files at the same time.
    Please let me know if the feature exists or point me to where I can post a message for a new feature to be implemented. The feature is a must for any designer working on large projects.
    Thanks!

    There is no such functionality. You could perhaps create a script that stores that info in a custom text file and arranges them accordingly in the workspace, but that's as good as it gets...

    If the Mac's firmware was updated, you can try this Internet Recovery:
    Hold down Command + Option + R during restart or bootup; hold until you see a spinning globe (takes up to 10 minutes). Once in the Utilities window, use Disk utility to wipe the drive, then return to the window and choose to reinstall OS X. If that works, the OS will be installed without being tied to an Apple ID.
    FWIW, if the firmware was updated, you will not be able to use the Snow leopard disk to install - I just did several tests and it does not work. You can, however, possibly install the SL onto an external drive and then clone it to the internal or (if you have a clone), boot from that and clone it back - I just tested that as well.
    If the firmware was not updated, then you can use the SL install disk.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • [svn] 3874: undo init and will redo it with more specifics next time

    It looks more cumbersome as every change will have to be executed 2 times. Which is not only more inefficient, but also more error prone.
    So more reliable for the changes you wanted to make? I don't think so.
    You should use the pfile as a backup only and start using the spfile.
    This has several advantages
    - You can change dynamic parameters both in memory and in the spfile at the same time, using the 'scope=both' clause of the alter system command
    - You can change static parameters by using the 'scope=spfile' clause without having to shell out to the OS to edit the pfile
    - You can restart the database from anywhere, so also from database control
    - The spfile will be included automatically in your RMAN backup, so you won't loose it in the event of disaster,
    You can easily conver the spfile to a pfile by using the create pfile from spfile command.
    All of this is, of course, described in the Fabulous Manual.
