Using two Macs with differing OSs.   Password refused on one for purchases/updates

I'm running an old MacPro with OS10.5.8 and a 27" i7 iMac withOS10.9.5 which I use for working in FCPX.   The older MacPro still had FCP6 in use.    For a little while now Apple refuses to recognise my password for their store downloads and updates.    As I don't gain in any way by using these two differing OSs, is there a way to get Apple to accept my circumstances -and allow my excess to their Store and iTunes from either machine, please?

Anyone . . . ?    Please.

  • Using two macs with one copy of LE8?

    Hi, I've got a copy of logic express 8 installed on my iMac, and wanted to use it on my dad's Macbook so that I can use it at practices/live etc. but it only comes with one license number, so when I try and install it on the macbook it says it's already registered. Is there any way over this?

    Hi,
    normally, it is possible to use the License Key twice (on two Macs). That's what the license says. If it isn't possible, i'd suggest to phone apple for support.

  • Can I use two Macs with one iTunes library?

    I currently have an iMac with my iTunes library stored on an external drive, and a shiny new MacBook Pro waiting for me at the Apple Store. If I transfer my entire library from the external drive to a new MacBook, can I still access my library seemlessly on my old iMac [possibly using Home Sharing]? I would like to use both computers to access the same content, in an office and then mobile setting.
    Also, if I continue to make purchases on my old iMac from Amazon or eMusic, is there a way to automatically store/transfer those on the new MacBook, the same way they are automatically stored on the external drive now?
    I do have the capability and plan on connecting my external drive to my AirPort Extreme after the transfer, if that makes any difference.

    See I wouldn't want to necessarily make a copy, but rather copy the library itself; so it is no longer stored on the external drive, and it's new home would be the MacBook Pro. I was wondering if I could access the MacBook library from my iMac the same way I access the external drive on my iMac. Or if I'm overthinking the Home Sharing service and really have nothing to worry about.
    I do have my entire library in the iCloud, and am a Match subscriber, but it is important that I have the songs actually stored on my MacBook so I can access them when I am without an internet connection.

  • Can I use two different Touches (2G and 4G) with different OSs on same comp

    I have a 2G 32 GB Touch running OS 3.13, which is just fine. I'm expecting a G4 64 GB Touch to arrive this coming week. I understand that OS 4.1 is already loaded on it.
    Will I be able to use both Touches with differing OSs on the same computer? I really have no desire to update the OS on the older Touch as it has worked beautifully for 22 months!

    You can have multiple ipods with different os's. For a few minutes I had my 2G at v4.0.1 and my 4G at v4.1.
    I've never seen itunes automatically update the os on the ipod so you should be ok.

    You can give this a try on your Ultimate machine.  While these are said to be for Vista, I used it on my Win 7 machine just fine and it fixed the problems I was having.  Hope it works for you.
    The problem is that Vista, by default, will only use NTLMv2 for authentication, which is not supported by Mac OS X's Windows Sharing service.
    The other problem is the Minimum Session Security for NTVLM SSP based Clients.
    To get around this:
    1.     In Vista, open the Control Panel
    2.     Switch to "Classic" view
    3.     Double-click Administration Tools
    4.     Double-click Local Security Policy
    5.     Or Secpol.msc
    6.     Expand "Local Policies" and select "Security Options"
    7.     Alternate : Type secpol.msc to get editor up then
    8.     Locate "Network Security: LAN Manager Authentication Level" in the list and double-click it.
    9.     Change the setting from "Send NTMLv2 response only" to "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session if negotiated"
    10.     Network Security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP Based (including secure RPC) Clients
    11.     Change the setting from "require 128 bit" to unchecked (No Minimum)
    12.     Click OK
    the real difference between vista and windows 7 procedure is 10 and 11

  • Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apples Ids?

    Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apple ID's

    What do you mean by "apple ID"?  There's an ID you can use at the iTunes store to buy songs, apps, etc.  there's an ID you can use for your iCloud account - the two can be different or the same. So which service are you referring to when you talk about an apple ID?

  • HT204053 I have two iphones with different numbers that I use my apple ID for purchases, etc.  How do I get my second iphone setup on icloud?  I would like to use the features of icloud for both of my iphones.  Thank you

    I have two iphones with different phone numbers that I use.  I have one of them set up on icloud now, but do not know how to set up my second device on icloud.  Both of my iphones use my same Apple ID for purchases, etc.  Is there a simple way to add a device to my icloud account?  Thank you in advance for any help someone may be able to give me.

    To move one of the phones to a different iCloud account (if that's what you want to do), go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data to Off.  When prompted, choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  After everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  This will delete the account from the phone but not from iCloud so the other phone will not be effected.  Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn iCloud syncing in Settings>iCloud back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new iCloud account.
    You will then have to go to icloud.com and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete any unwanted data that you don't want on the phone syncing with each account.

  • I have 2? How do I sync selected photos from my IPad to my IMac w/o losing all photos on my IPad and getting the phoos o my IMac. ou see I have two IMacs with different sets of photos. Also want to convert all Apple works docs to pages docs on my IMac.

    I have 2? How do I sync selected photos from my IPad to my IMac w/o losing all photos on my IPad which will be replaced with the photos on my IMac.You see I have two IMacs with different sets of photos. Also want to convert all Apple works docs to pages docs on my IMac. Is there and app available to do the former. many thanks. b

    The iPad and related software is designed to sync with only one computer. I suggest transferring the photos from one of your iMacs to the other so that all photos are on one Mac. Same for all other files you want to sync over.
    To get those AppleWorks files to the iPad you'll have to determine if Pages will open them. If it will then use the file sharing feature of iTunes to copy them to Pages on your pad.
    If Pages will not open the AppleWorks files directly you'll have to save them in some format that Pages will read. These include but may not be limited to Pages and Word formats.

  • Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

    Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    iTunes content can be commingled in the iTunes library on a computer and synced to iOS devices. The computer must be authorized to use the content from the respective Apple IDs in the iTunes Store menu.

  • Two subnets with different mask on a single router?

    router 1941
    Hello. I'm needing assistance with the setup of two subnets within a single router.
    Here's my information:
    Router has only two GigabitEthernet interfaces.
    GigabitEthernet0/0 has 172.20.0.1 ip and 255.255.252.0 mask.
    GigabitEthernet0/1 has 172.21.0.1 ip and 255.255.128.0 mask
    Now, on each side there is a Switch with two computers.
    I need to have 1 computer on each side on the same subnet, and the other one on a different subnet, meaning a pc on the same side cannot communicate with the other computer on its side, but can with another computer on the other side.
    I have no idea how to configure this on the router, can anyone please help me?
    Thanks in advance!

    >>> So you want PC1 and PC3 to be able to talk to each other but you don't want them to be able to >>>talk to PC2 and PC4 and vice versa.
    This is correct.
    >>>If so you don't need a router, you can just a switch (or switches)  and  use two vlans with no L3 >>>interfaces.
    Unfortunately they are not giving me the choice of making my own net design. I need to setup this with all the devices mentioned (1 router, 2 switches, 4 pcs).
    >>>If so you don't need a router, you can just a switch (or switches)  and  use two vlans with no L3 >>>interfaces.
    As long as they communicate with the appropiate PC, it doesnt matter if they communicate to other devices or not.
    Thanks again!

  • Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account?  For example: iPad and iPhone, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud), is this possible?

    Hello Apple Community,
    Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account? 
    For example: iPad Air and iPhone 5, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud).  Is this possible?
    This way when I change from an old ipad to a new, I can restore with the ipad backup, and when I change from an old iphone to a new, I can restore from the
    iphone backup.
    Thank you in advance!

    Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"?  There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
    Read references for Home Sharing.
    iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
    Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
    iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
    The above can get pretty complicated.  You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.

  • How can I setup an .indd with two columns with different threads so that I can export to epub?

    Hi all. Sorry, english is not my native language. I´ve made an .indd: each page has two columns with different threads (is a bilingual text). When I export this .indd to .epub only appears one column from a thread following the next thread. What can i do to fix this? My indesign is CS6
    Thank you

    There are fixed format EPUB files as can be used for children's books, etc. where there are a lot of illustrations. However, those are very work-intensive to produce. I've never worked on one.
    Anne-Marie Concepcion did a Lynda.com video on producing one.
    Rorohiko produces a product called ePubCrawler which can help in produced fixed format EPUB files:
