What is the best way to operate 2 separate iphones on one computer

HI - HELP PLEASE.....
My wife has an iphone and an itunes account registered on her computer - i have just bought an iphone and i want to register it to the same computer, create and itunes account, but we want to keep out apps & music ect seperate - what is the best way of doing this? Thanks.

The best way is a matter of personal taste. The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways, each with their own pros & cons. For instance if you generally share one profile on the computer already, creating another just to support a different iTunes library may be inconvenient. Switching libraries within the same profile ought to be as easy as opening two different documents, but it isn't. If you have some cross over in your taste for music and apps you may find a shared library is actually easier to manage.
We don't have two iPhones in the family as yet but as I understand it each device can have separate settings for syncing calendars and contacts. For example my iPhone syncs these over the air with the Exchange server at work so if/when my wife gets an iPhone it would be easy to have hers sync to our computer.
If you go down the shared library route you can make sure your apps don't inadvertently merge by turning off Automatically sync new apps from the apps tab when you connect your device.
For media I use the sync with selected playlists method with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iDevices using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their device. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed and need rebuilding. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

HT1349 I lost/had my iPhone stolen. Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Tried using Find My iPhone and it's offline. It (Find my iPhone) was set up. What do I do now? Do I report it stolen? What is the best way in getting back my iPhone if any? Thank you in advance.

Find My iPhone is good for misplaced iPhone but not good for thief and it was never meant to be.
You chance of getting it back is very small.
There are a few things you can try.
Try remote lock/wipe your iPhone through Find My iPhone.

You can report to the police, cell carrier (expensive cell charges for international calls, roaming etc)
Change all the passwords used in iPhone: Apple ID, E-mail, Bank Account ....

What is the best way to migrate your Adobe software to another computer?

What is the best way to migrate your Adobe software to another computer?

If you know that you do not intend to use the software on the old machine (especially if you are getting rid of it), the minimum you need to do is deactivate it. That will disable use of it and free up an extra activation for you should you ever wish to have two machines available to use it on. To deactivate you just open an application and choose Help -> Deactivate. If this happens to be a Creative Suite, doing that to just one of the applications will deactivate the entire Suite.
You can also uninstall the software if you like, but be sure to deactivate it first.

What is the best way to migrate PSE6 Catalog (Wxp) to new computer W7, PSE11?

What is the best way to migrate PSE6 Catalog (Wxp) to new computer W7, PSE11? Previous PSE6 recovery (Wxp) after a failed HD resulted in pictures showing but not opening due to connection issues. Had to restore pictures from backup and rebuild the catalog and albums. Found a third party fix afterwards that has no support past PSE8. Trying to make this migration to PSE11 painless.

That's a very common and classical situation :

Just make sure that your backup to the external drive is ok : you should find a 'backup.tly' file in the folder.
Use the PSE11 organizer to restore from the PSE7 backup : the first step restores all your media files, the second automatically does a catalog conversion to the PSE11 format.
Read the note in the above link about restoring from XP to ulterior Win OS. You can also restore to a 'custom' location. For instance in a 'C:\My new library' folder. Make sure that master folder is accessible to all users, and if you want, you can move the catalog (database) itself from that location to the default location : catalog manager, option to move catalogs to location accessible to all users.

What is the best way to move an iPhoto library from one internal drive to another internal drive?

the drive where my iPhoto library is store is just about full. I have a second internal SSD that I'd like to move (not copy) the library to. What is the best way to do that and still ensure that iPhoto will access the library in its new location?

Just drag the iPhoto Library package from the one drive to the second disk. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select the library in it's new location on the second disk. Once you're satisfied that it is working satisfactorliy you can delete the copy on the first disk.

What's the best way to load balance multiple protocols on one vserver?

Hi,
We have a CSM blade on a 6513, in bridge mode. I'm just wondering what is the best way to serve HTTP and HTTPS (or any two or more ports) from the same group of servers. As I see it, we have two options:
1. Don't set a port on the vserver, so it is load balancing "any" or "tcp". This is easy but I want to be sure there isn't a downside to this, other than the obvious security issue.
2. Create multiple vservers and point them at the same serverfarm. I tried this and I got some odd results with the health checks.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

you listed the only 2 options available.
The advantage of solution #2 is that you can apply specific config for each protocol ie: for HTTP you can turn 'persistent rebalance' if needed.
If you want to use specific probes [not icmp], it is also a good practice to create a different serverfarm for each protocol.
Like this, if the HTTP service goes down but not the server, you can still have other protocols loadbalanced.
Regards,
Gilles.

What is the best way to work on multiple songs in one long recording?

I often record the local open-mic nights and generally just leave logic recording the entire night so i end up with lots of songs/bands in one big recording.
What is the best way to work with such a recording? Is there a better way than just using the event marker when a new band plays?
Also once i get home id like to save each band to a separate project but i cant seem to find an easy way to do this?
Obviously each band needs a different mix hence needing separate projects? or am i missing a much better work method?
any help greatly appreciated!
many thanks

As for your second point, just do a "save as" new file name and cut and erase any unwanted audio from the arrange window (ie. the bits that aren't in the song you want separate). You can do this for as many songs as there are and create a different mix for each one no problem. You multiple select and drag all the regions to the beginning of the arrange window (make sure you do them at the same time so's they don't go out of synch. All the separate songs and mixes can be saved in the same project folder as the original audio files are stored in (the folder structure should be there already if you started a new logic project, so no need to change that.
I would think using markers so you know where each song begins during the show, and the above method after, would be a very good way of organizing things. You may want to stop actually recording between bands too though I expect you are already doing this.
Its really as easy as that. Sometimes things just are.

What's the best way to add a new iphone to family itunes?

We just bought a second iphone for my wife. It was set up with her own apple id. It looks like the family sharing for itunes requires a common apple id. What's the best way to share the family music library with her new device?
Thanks

Hi,
I would suggest looking into some javascript samples to insert within your site.

What is the Best Way to Sync iPod nano to a new Computer and User?

what is the best way to sync ipod to a new computer and user?
moving from old mac to new mac - same ipod
- currently won't add music etc. i guess because it is not associated with this new computer
- i don't care if I dump all old contents - if necessary...
BTW: what if it's the same username?

No problem.
What about when I have the same user name on both old and new computers - and right now the new computer sees/syncs the ipod just fine .... but it seems that on another day it might not allow the sync
If it's syncing okay already, then you have nothing to worry about. Anyways, why would it change? It doesn't decide when to. It either syncs or it doesn't depending on the situations circumstances, in which your case, you have nothing to worry about because it's already syncing without issues.

What is the best way to establish sso between iphone and IIS?

Hi experts,
I try to configure the SCEP, and I can view a IIS content with "Certificate required", but, can I validate the username with this certificate?
thanks in advance,

Hi,
Yes, TCP/IP is most universal way for the communication. Otherwise you should develop some parts for establish connection / break connection / wait for the data. This way also good when you need to transfer the data across network.
Another possible way is following: you can create DLL from your LabVIEW code, then call this dll from your C# application, and interchange the data through this DLL. Here you can use different techniquies (also TCP/IP as well). The advantage of this method that you will establish LabVIEW<->LabVIEW communication.
In attached example I have create "quick and dirty" project with shared variables. LabVIEW application will write the shared variable, then external application will read this, increment variable, then LabVIEW will read it back. I have used CVI, but you can call SharedLib from C#, here no differences.
Something like that:
best regards,
Andrey.

What's the best way to import and manage iPhone video?

I don't really want to use iPhoto for importing video - it doesn't seem like it's built with that in mind even though it's the default option for importing both photos and videos. It doesn't have very good (if any) options for filtering just videos or just photos, either when viewing or importing. And I don't want to have videos all jumbled in with photos in my iPhoto library.
I also don't really want to use iMovie every time I want to import videos. I know it's designed for video, but it's far more of an editing app than a management app and I don't want to be editing all my videos or loading up iMovie just to browse them.
I considered Clipstart but it commits a cardinal sin when it renames all my videos in the Finder to a sequential numbering that begins at 01.mov for each new day, creating hundreds and thousands of identically titled movies in the video library, albeit in their own folders, but chaos if you want to search in Spotlight or anything.
So I'm left with Image Capture, which gives me complete control of what I import and where it goes. The problem is that it too doesn't offer a filter for seeing just the videos or just the photos on my iPhone. My photos are all being imported automatically by Photostream so I only want to grab the videos. If I set 'view by width' it seperates out the videos because they have no width tag, but then they aren't displayed by date order so I can't easily find the new videos I've not imported before.
So... what do you do?

That's exactly the sort of crafty workaround I like. I didn't know they were all tagged, but that would definitely work. I'd still love a dedicated app that did it really well, or more love given to that side of things in iPhoto. iMovie is too hefty for just managing them.
Is iPhoto properly built to handle management of iPhone video, by the way? I didn't want to use it because it didn't seem like it was, and also because I sync my iPhoto library with Dropbox and video would more than treble the size of the library so I manage it from the Finder mostly, importing clips to iMovie if I do want to edit something (rarely).

What is the best way to move an aperture library from one full drive to an external drive?

Just want to make sure I move my existing Aperture library on my internal drive (which is full) correctly to an external drive that has plenty of space.
Thanks for the help!

As I use a MBP with limited internal drive space, my approach is to have the image files on an external drive, while leaving the library itself on my internal drive. The library takes up about 80GB while the images are closer to 1TB.
The library always contains 'Thumbnails' of the images which it shows in place of the disconnected image files.
This means I can still open the library even when the external drive is not attached, and I can still do keywording and rating and organising and so on.
I also maintain 'Previews' for my best images. Previews are like thumbnails but larger in size and can be shared with other apps, so I can still use and share these copies of the images, again even while the external drive is not attached.
I don't like the idea of having the actual library on an external drive connected to a laptop (although I have done so from time to time without issue). There's always a chance it can become accidentially disconnected (kids, pets, etc) and if this happens while using Aperture it can corrupt your library. A corrupted library can be repaired with Apertures first aid tools, but it's better to avoid it in the frist place when you can.

I'm 17, what is the best way to upgrade to an iPhone 6? By pre-ordering it and having it sent to my house?

I dont really want to get my parents involved. My whole family is eligible for an upgrade, if i order it online and have it sent to the store, then my parents will have to be there correct?

Why don't you make sure it's ok with mom and/or dad first. when you're 18 you can get your plan and do what you want.
