Using new i-pod with older i-book

I just purchased a 3G I-pod and I am trying to load it up with music. My older i-book will only hold about 900 songs. What are my options here? Can I increase the memory on my i-book? Is it possible to load songs onto my i-pod from another computer without losing the songs that are already on there?
Please help!

You'll need to set up the iPod to manually update.
With the iPod connected, open iTunes.
Select Edit-->Preferences
Choose iPod
Select "manually manage songs and playlists"
Storing the only copy of your music on your iPod is definitely NOT a very secure thing. A common fix for iPod issues is to Restore, which erases all data on the iPod.
You should consider picking up an external drive for the iBook.
In answer to your other question, yes, you can load music from another computer, but you will need to have the iPod in Manual Update mode.

Help - lost motherboard, auto save saved older script, newer script actually with older date.

Adobe story team:
I had a best script to date, on an older hard drive and the motherboard failed on my HP tower. The sony laptop has a more recent dated script, but not the one I want. How do I replace an "older" date script, one that I want for a newer script. I don't want the newer script, I want the older one that is on a "pulled" hard drive again, from a tower that failed.
Do I save the older file on an offline, using a new ID, new password, forever changed or what can I do?
I need a fairly quick response, timing is critical. HP tower is the problem.
drgm
thanks

You have it half right. the issue is the HP tower I had failed. The mother board failed, I pulled the hard drive which is windows 7, I have a sony laptop which is in 32 bit vista, I am not sure if the different versions will be an issue. can i take a file off the pulled hard drive and put it somewhere in a directory even with the different windows vista vs windows 7 if so which file should i copy on the pulled hard drive and where do i put it on the laptop, directory plus I will go back on online save it in the clouds and reformat the laptop and go to windows 7 then go back to adobe story and go from there. thank you for your quick attention in this matter.
Respectfully,

Hi
I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly, but as far as I can make out you had been working on a script and then it got autosaved and now you wish to go back to the "older" script.
In order to do so you may visit your document's history through the View->History option. There you will see older versions of your document (if you had not turned off autoversioning). You may then open an older version of the document from the panel by double clicking on it. Once on an older version you will get to see the "Make Latest" option. Clicking on that will make the "older" state of your document your "current" state and then you may proceed to edit the document as usual.
I hope this is helpful to your situation. In case you face any issues in following the mentioned steps do let us know.
Thanks

Need 10.7 to sync my new iPhone 5 and new iPad 4 with my Mac Book Pro, but it's 10.5.8? What do I do?

I need OS 10.7 to sync my new iPhone 5 and new iPad 4 with my Mac Book Pro, but my MBPro has 10.5.8? What do I do? I want to fix my problem now, but it wants me to purchase the Snow Leopard software and wait for it to be delivered. Why can't I purchase it and then download? Any ideas?

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

Using Windows 8.1 With Older Domain Controllers

Is there any document that would specify types of incompatibility we might expect when using Windows 8.1 with older domain controllers, either Windows 2000 or Windows 2003?
I assume at minimum that these older domain controllers would not have group policies that are able to support the full security policy feature set of Windows 8.1? For such cases, how do we configure security policy on those 8.1 domain member
computers? Would we use LocalGPO.wsf to import a local security policy, then join the computer to the domain to override just the settings that are supported by the domain controller and windows 8.1 in common?

You can backup 2 computers as long as the TC has enough space.
Your access might be restricted if you set it up with users.. you must log in with the correct user to get access to the files.
Otherwise you should be able to see both sparsebundles just with finder.

Using G5 iPod Video with older Firewire cable

I have an older iPod, the 15GB model that used the Firewire cable with the dock connector, but I just purchased a new 60GB iPod Video. It comes with an USB cable and not a firewire one, but I already have the power brick and stuff that uses my Firewire cable. Can I use my older cable with my new iPod Video eventhough it warns me when I plug it in?

You can use the firewire cable to charge the new iPod, but you can't use it to sync content onto your new iPod.
The power brick with firewire cable will charge the new iPod without any problems at all.

I need guidance on using an i-pad with older people

I represent a UK Charity that is considering rolling out the use of i-pads to older people who attend day centres so that when they are at home they can access, very easily, information about local services, activities, friends, family etc. I have so far concluded that an i-pad with a mobile contract should allow them unfettered access the Internet thus information and e-mails. It would not need another computer to piggy-back on nor a wireless router. Applications specifically tailored to older people who are living alone. I would like some guidance on the realities of persuading older people that the i-pad is not a 'computer' but merely a window to the world. I would welcome guidance on how to set up such a roll out programme, costs, pitfalls, unexpected advantages etc.Help !!?

I would try a few iPads first, may work for some just fine, others likely not at all.
Some of the drawbacks of the iPad for some seniors I've found are as follows:
1: can't scale the UI for their poor eyesight
2: touchscreen issues with colder fingers
3: UI has a lot of hidden and not clear cut references, lots of guessing, harder to learn
4: difficult to hold, no mouse, having to raise their arms to use, fragile device easily dropped.
5: some sites they use are not compliant, or use plug-ins the iPad can't use, like historical records, government sites and such designed for a desktop OS and a mouse pointer
Believe it or not, I've found Windows XP to be the best for seniors as they have had the most familiarity with it, but adopting to Windows 7 themed as close to Windows XP to be the most trouble free on newer machines.
Your results may vary and your learning level of the seniors you work with may vary.
Usually the ones are active will go out and buy their own iPad or computer they like, however with shut-ins your likely looking at doing everything for them and they are more interested in your company and may only feign interest. You'll find out the iPad is only being used while your there.
If you really want to help them, then give them something as close to what they already know how to use or others can assist to take the workload off you.
They mostly prefer a mouse, pointer and a keyboard over a touchscreen.
All I can suggest is s mixed approach, not all iPad and not all desktop computers, however you will find the desktop computers are considerably less headache, cost less , autoupdate etc., and break down less than a iPad.
You can set the desktop machine to do things automatically, it's always hooked to the power, the iPad needs to be charged, it needs this or that update and so forth.
Not knocking the iPad, and it can work for some, but likely not all.
I know as a young person it's tempting to think a lot of older seniors can grasp new technology as easy as the young, but a lot don't, it's a whole new different way of doing things and it's foreign to them, take them so long to learn they they don't want to bother.
So sometimes it's just better to give them something as close to what they already know, your trying to help them remain active, not torture them with every new technological gadget that magically appears on the market, is popular now but won't be 3 years from now as something newer is released.
You'll catch on soon enough who you can use a iPad with or not, unfortunatly a "organization" is thinking a global rollout, when a much more tailored approach is better.
I've hope I've made my point.
Good luck

Possibility to use new Mac mini with an USB-DAC?

Anybody knowing anything about the possibility to use the new Mac mini with an USB-DAC. My reason for the question is that I've heard that USB3 doesn't handle sound. I'm thinking about to buy a mac mini and use it as an HTPC and signalsource together with NAIM DAC-V1.
// Rode orm

What I have heard that there are a few USB2 audio devices that
have had some issues with USB3, but USB3 itself is supposedly
backward compatible to USB2.
I would check with the makers of the DAC to see if there are any
USB3 issues.

Using new ColdFusion8 Features with Flex

I've read that ColdFusion 8 has new enhancements for
developers using ColdFusion Flash Remoting with FLEX that are
supposed to make our lives a lot easier, like being able to return
a cfquery directly to FLEX. I'd really like to try out some of
these new features, but cannot find any documentation or examples
of how to use them. The Developer Center has lots of examples for
ColdFusion MX and FLEX2, but where are the FLEX2 and CF8
integration examples? Does anyone know where I might be able to
find some?

With MacBooks it's only the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010model 7,1 White Unibody that have the buttonless multi-touch glass trackpad that allow the gestures to work in Lion. The Early 2006 model 1,1 through Early 2008 model 4,1s plus the Early and Mid 2009 model 5,2s had the button trackpads.

CAN I USE MYApple Cinema Displays WITH MY MAC BOOK PRO

CAN I USE MYApple Cinema Displays WITH MY 13"mac book pro

Your 2014 MacBook Pro should have 2 Thunderbolt ports and 1 HDMI port. We need to find out what plug your Cinema Display has.
Does the Plug look like this:
http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/dvi-cables/dviiplug.jpg
If so, then its a DVI connector. And you would need a Thunderbolt/Mini Display Port to DVI adapter.

If not, look on the underside of the Display's frame or base/stand, there should be a model number there.

New i-pod with old playlist

I bought a new i-pod and want to download from my existing playlist - I named the new i-pod a different name than the old - can I still load my music?

Each iPod gets its own sync settings. Plug in new iPod, give it a name then sync with library.

Using an extended display with a Mac Book Pro

I have a new Mac Book Pro, which I am using with a larger monitor as an extended display. I would like to have the larger monitor be the main display instead of the laptop. But, I can't figure out how to do that. Does anyone know how to do this or if it can even be done at all.

KGS 75,
Open System Preferences>Displays. When you have an external display connected, you will have an extra pane showing a graphic representation of the display geometry. To change the geomoetry, drag the icon for the external monitor to your desired position (above, below, right, left).
Your "main" display is determined by where the menu bar is located. The menu bar is also represented in the geometry pane, shown at the top of one of the display icons. Simply drag this icon from one display to another.
