What is the easiest way to sync and back up 2 iPhones with different accounts on one computer?
My parents have gotten a new Windows 8 computer and want to use it to back up and sync their phones for updates. They don't share an iTunes account but they do share the credit card used to make purchases. They also so not want to set up "his and her" accounts on the computer. Also they are getting new phones next week. Should I just make an account for them to share and delete their old accounts, or will signing in and out of iTunes based on who is using it keep their information seperate...or is there a much simpler way to do it that I am totally missing?
I wouldn't say that it is easily done, but it can be done, the reason I don't say easily is because it has to be done individually one at a time. And I assume that you are talking about all ten having the same apps?

What is the easiest way to remove duplicate contacts on my Iphone?
What is the easiest way to remove duplicate contacts on my Iphone and avoid them in the future?
There are apps that will locate and remove duplicate contacts, such as My Contacts Backup Pro. As for preventing them in the future, if you are syncing contacts both with iTunes and iCloud this will create duplicates. If you are, pick one and disable the other.

What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?
What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?
I signed a paper and uploaded the image to the computer as a jpeg to be turned into a watermark. I'd done it before for a different kind of photography, but have not done it in so long that I cannot remember the steps nor can I find the tutorial video I had watched that taught me how to do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciatedAdding to what others have said, if you want to repeat the watermark across the image, it's relatively easy:
As JJ said, you want to create an image with a transparent background. You can even use his script. Once you've done all that, click Image > Trim with the "transparent pixels" option and leave all the "trim away" options checked.
Click Edit > Define Pattern to name the pattern.
Open the image you want to apply the watermark to. Create a new blank layer. (ON EDIT: Select the blank layer.)
Click Edit > Fill and use the Pattern option under Contents. Choose the pattern you made earlier. Click OK.
At this point, you can leave it as is or use blending modes and layer opacity to taste. Example: -
What is the easiest way to create and manage very big forms?
I need to create a form that will contain few hundred questions. Could you please give me some advise on what is the easiest way to do that? I mean for example is it easier to create everything in Word (since it is easier to manage) and than create a form based on that?
My concern is that when I will have a very big form, containing different kinds of questions and with many scripts, managing it during work will be slow and difficult, for example adding a question in the middle of the form which would require moving half of the questions down which could smash the layout etc.
What is the best practise for that?
Thanks in advanceTry using Table and Rows for this kind of forms. These forms will have the same look throught with a question and and answer section..
In the future if you want to add a new section, you can simply add rows in between..
Thanks

I am using RH10 to maintain and update several WebHelp projects for customer-facing Internet applications. I am noticing inconsistencies in css and html so I would like to create several snippets for later re-use. My wishlist, so far: FAQ page with internal bookmarks, product image with table of callouts, and basic page template with corporate header and footer. What's the easiest way to save / export a page that I want to use later as a snippet? Thank you.
Have you thought about using the Resource Manager?

What's the easiest way to manage my music on my iPhone 4S, espeially to delete duplicates
It is difficult for to manage playlists, smart playlists and restored playlists. What is the easiest way to go through my 7.9 Gigs of music on the iphone and remove duplicates. Is there a way to do this on the phone itself or do I have to go through syncing?
Hello ihweiner,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

What is the easiest way to download a document from SAP DMS with C#?
Hi,
I've been sifting through this forum and looked at various posts and sample code, but so far my quest hasn't been fruitful.
What is the easiest way to download a physical document file from SAP DMS using C#? I'm using the NCo 3 (SAP .NET
Connector 3).
Requirements
- As few dependencies as possible (not adding or changing functionality in SAP)
- C# code (MS Visual Studio 2012)
- SAP Environment: NetWeaver 7.4.0
Thanks for all help.
Regards,
FrankWe've been using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUT2, but there seems to be a limitation. From what I've found on Google, you must enable the use of the SAPGUI through the flag UseSAPGUI when connecting to SAP. It works, but my issue is that when I use it on a web server, I end up with some error when trying to start the GUI. There is very little recent information for this out there right now.

What's the easiest way to transfer data from an old external disk to a new one?
Hello!
My external hard drive (SimpleTech 250GB) is almost full so I bought a LaCie P'9230 3TB hard drive to take the place of the old one. What is the easiest way to transfer the data from the old one to the new one? Also, any tips on how to format the new drive will be appreciated since I haven't done this in a while.
Thank VERY much!!!
tenntooterHello rkaufmann87 and Linc,
Thank you both for your responses. It ended up that it was REALLY easy to set up and use the LaCie drive. The drive came with very simple instructions and a very easy to use setup assistant. Setup took about 2 minutes without ever leaving the assistant to get into Disk Utility, etc. Once the drive was setup I simply dragged the older external drive on top of the LaCie drive and the LaCie copied the data in about a minute.
After backing up the old drive I set Time Machine to use the new LaCie drive and selected the encryption option. It took the LaCie drive about an hour to totally back up my iMac's hard drive and to encrypt it as well.
VERY IMPRESSED with LaCie for sure!!! (As well as continuing to be VERY IMPRESSED with my MAC!!!)
Thanks again!

What's the easiest way to sync my new 2G nano to my 1G nano library?
Ok, this shouldn't be too tough. I want to give away my Nano to a friend and simply connect my new 8GB Nano to my current iTunes library setup. What's the easiset way to do this?
Connect your new Nano and follow the on screen instructions, it will find your existing iTunes and update. Depending on the size of your library you can have it update the whole lot, selected playlists or you can manage it manually.
For info:
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences:
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists or "Sync Music - All songs and Playlists" in iTunes 7. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only or "Sync Music - Selected playlists" in iTunes 7. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists or "Manually manage music and videos" in iTunes 7. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod. -
Whats is the easiest way to store and retrieve files using a DB?
Hello,
I have a web application where my users need to upload and retrieve files(.doc, .ppt. excel). I want to store them in the database instead of on the server. Anyone have any ideas on the easiest way to do this?
Thanks,
DannyWell, there's a BFILE data type-- that allows you to store essentially a pointer to a file in the database, though the file itself would be stored externally.
A better option would be to store the data either as interMedia Text or as a B/CLOB, so all the data from the file would be stored in the file. interMedia Text gives a number of benefits if you're going to be working with the data-- i.e. searching the data, etc, but the additional work & restrictions may not be worth it if you just want to get the data in and out of the database whole.

What is the easiest way to sync Google Cal and Contacts with an iMac?
iTunes will sync Google Contacts, but not calendar. Weird. Why? What's the best fix?
There must a better way to do this. The problem is, YOU CAN'T UNCHECK IPHOTO in the installer. You pretty much need all the support files which you can't see in the installer, but you usually don't want iphoto.
1 way to get around this is: Quit the installer if you launched it. Open the install disc > search = (any ilife app) > make visibility option 'invisible'. (if you don't know how, search invisible files in apple's help menu). run through the stuff to find a 'packages' (or some similar name) folder. Inside of that, I install everything except for what I don't want, which for me is the iphoto and imovie stuff.
Still there must a better way, maybe you can create your own installer from the packages w/ package maker or something and burn that image... Worth trying...
Please be assured that you will not get full integration between the current apps and the iLife apps in 10.9.x; Mavericks. The apps don't have all the expected hooks to each other due end of product development. This seems to be the crux of the problems I've had testing to make an idvd dvd.
If you're running 10.9, I recommend moving on to current replacements that will work as expected. That way you won't be wasting time running down project problems. -
I am brand new to Lightroom (converted from Aperture) and made the conversation mainly because I thought that Adobe would bring many more options and because Apple has discontinued development of Aperture. Part of the reason I am asking this question is because there is so much information out there on this subject that it is overwhelming and actually is making it difficult to determine the best way to simply arrange my photos/videos into a slideshow and then to publish somewhat of a gallery or slideshow to show family and friends in other states.
I do not like publishing things to Facebook/etc. Too public. I just want a simple, efficient way to create a gallery with music and have a link I can send to my family (they all live in another state).
Any help narrowing this down for me would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
RJ Chestertonan airport extreme base station would do the job, it has several ethernet ports for use by non-wireless devices, allows connecting a usb printer to share, and supports both pc and mac via wireless
config is via a dedicated set-up utility
however, you can always connect the printer to the mac or pc and share it that way, so having this support in the base station isn't essential
a much cheaper unit from netgear etc. (such as the netgear wgr614) would offer the other features, be far more compact, and allow configuration via web browser, which might be a factor if you need to give 'remote support'
i've got both airport and netgear wireless devices, imho for non-technical users the netgear is simpler than the airport due to the web browser configuration -
What is the easiest way to sync multiple ipads to one computer

What is the easiest way to sync two ipads?
I just received a newer ipad. how do I migrate the apps and data from old model?
Sync (and make sure to let it fully back up) the old one. Connect the new one to iTunes (I recommend a cable rather than wireless sync - first one will take a while if you have lots of songs, movies, etc) and instead of "set up as new device" select "restore from backup" and use the back-up from your original iPad.
