Using remote with more then one computer.

Can i use remote with different computers? It works fine on mine but if i try to use it with another computer in the house it doesn't show up in itunes.

If you want to connect and use an iPod (other than a shuffle) on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Note: When changing from automatic to manual, check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. "Don't" uncheck Sync Music in the Music tab, it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting, if you uncheck it without setting the iPod to manual first you'll erase all the songs from your iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

Can I use iPod with more than one computer?

I have a 60gb iPod w/ color (4th Gen). On my laptop which is my home computer I also have all my music as well as on my iPod. I would like to know if I can put all my music on a second or even third computer so that I can access the music. Also, my girlfriend has a iPod nano. Would she be able to access my music if I put the music on her computer?

Using ipod on more then one computer

I currently have an hp pavilion but will be buying an ibook soon. I just purchased the new 60 gig ipod and would like to start using it right away with my itunes that I already have on my current computer.
When I get my new computer, will there be a problem installing the software on it and using the ipod with it?

Before you connect your iPod to the new computer, switch the iPod to Manual Update.
To do this:
1)Connect iPod to hp computer
2) Open Preferences (in iTunes)
3) Select the iPod tab
4) Choose "manually manage songs and playlists"
Now, when you connect the iPod to the new computer, iTunes will open, but your iPod shouldn't be updated.
If the new computer does ask if you wish to link the iPod with the current library, do NOT click yes--this will erase all music.
You can use programs like Senuti or iPodRip to copy the music from the iPod to your new computer.
Once the music is in iTunes, you can switch your iPod back to Automatic Update.
Keep in mind--your iPod will work just fine on the Mac, but you will not be able to use the iPod Updater to update the iPod. You'll need to use a PC for any updates.
I hope this has helped. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Syncing with more than one computer?

Does anyone know if it is possible to sync the iPhone with more than one computer? With the PDA that I used to use I would sync with my secretary's computer also so that we could both update my calendar and conatacts.

You can sync (info - not music/movies) with multiple Macs - not sure about PCs...

Sync with more than one computer

Hello Keithj,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums
You can synchronize with multiple computers but there are a few considerations to take into account when doing so.

Being a new ipod i would think I should start again with this process... I have only hooked the new one up to one computer... can anyone help on this

"i got a message saying that this is the 5th computer my ipod is registered to."
Not sure why you would see that message, you can use an iPod with an unlimited amount of different computers.

Sure you're not confusing this with the maximum of 5 authorized computer for the purchase and playback of iTunes purchased music?

Apple won't let me sync with more than one computer

How crazy is it that Apple will not let you sync with more than one computer! I have three computers! One in the kitchen one in my room and one at my parents house. These are all my computers, but if I try to sync my iphone5! with my computer at my parents house itunes says it will erase all my data! I have legally purchased all my music, so I have bought the rights! which means I can have the same songs on mutiply computers.
I've seen posts like this before, so I know Im not the only one who knows that this is unexceptable! Apple knows too! So heres how we gonna do this, **** itunes and **** apple, they can suck it! I'm sick of Apple and how they try to control everything you do, with their limited youtube video capacity because they "dont allow flash".
All Apple care about is taking your money, otherwise they would listen to what their customers are saying. These posts are on an apple site after all.
Thats my opinion, vote this up if you feel the same way.
Thanks

I understand what you mean. If you would have a little more technical background to what is happening when you sync and iOS device, you would understand that the reason for syncing with only one computer is not to control you but is rather to manage the syncing.
For exemple, how would you manage to backup a device on multiple computer while some songs or apps are on your iOS device but not on the computer? Copying them back to the computer would only result in what you don't want, keeping different iTunes library on different computer.
The very best solutions for you is either;
Make one of your iTunes library the master with ALL your media files and use this one for syncing your device. You can easily manage all your music using automated playlist (like one for all the music with an older date you would decide).
Pay for iTunes match and ALL your song (even those you haven't bought from iTunes) to be available in the cloud for you to stream directly to your iPhone. This however have a monthly fee.
I agree that on one thing Apple is controlling; it's by not allowing you to extract songs from an iPod. Giving home sharing now, that would solely restrict you from illegally copying music to others. But again, you must understand that this limitation isn't to be powerfreak, it have been required to secure the music industries and make iTunes Store possible in the first place.
And make shure you active Home Sharing as it will give you full access (stream and copy over wi-fi from any computer and iOS devices) in between your iTunes libraries.

Using photoshop on more than one computer

I purchased Photoshop CS6 for my home Mac several months ago. I am about to buy my daughter a Mac. Will I be able to install photoshop on her computer, too? Can I use it on more than one computer in the same household?

You can "install" it on two computers, but the End User License Agreement stipulates that you cannot run it on both at the same time.

Hi,
Check the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth setting.
iChat needs to see a Minimum of 128kbps to do 1-1 chats in Video
For 3 and 4 way chats it needs 384kbps
Set the Bandwidth to 500kbps if it is set lower.
Also check the speed you are getting from your Internet supplier.
