Will running older and newer versions of iPods on the same PC cause prblems

My daughter has a 60g video iPod which works ok with V6 iTunes. I have just purchased a 30g which requires V7 iTunes to work. She has seen the forums and is worried that if I upgrade it will cause probs - possibly even losing her music. Is she correct to be worried?
We have seperate admin accounts on the pc. Is it possible to run V6 for her and V7 for me? If not should I back-up her music and libraries - how do I do this?
Thanks
Guy

You only have one version of iTunes installed. If the iTunes upgrade goes alright, mine did, everything in old version will transfer and be available in new version.
Backup method depends on what you have available. You can use CDs, DVDs, or another hard drive. Make sure you copy the itunes.itl file for each account. This is the actual 'library' file that contains playlists, playcounts, subscriptions, etc.

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the corrupt tracks from the music section of your iTunes library, close & then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. This seems to help with partial downloads...
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

    That's Adobe for you!
    No matter how much we request, beg and/or complain, nothing is done about the miserably small interface.
    We're still left with the three inadequate choices in preferences:
    Other than that, you can change your monitor's resolution.

    How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original?   Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display.

    There are two things we use the name "Slideshow" for in Aperture:  a Slideshow Album, used for making Slideshows, and the Slideshow that is made.  (Imho, it is a design mistake to not call the containers used to create Slideshows, Books, etc., "Albums".)
    The Slideshow will use the Album Pick from any Stack.  A good way to use Aperture is to promote the Image you want to regularly use (such as, for example, a Version with adjustments) to the top of the Stack.  This makes it the Stack Pick, and will be the default Album Pick.  If you haven't done that, you can still change the Album Pick for any Stack in a Slideshow Album.  Expand your Stack(s), select the Image in each Stack that you want to be the Album Pick (and thus shown in the Slideshow), and "Stacks➞Set Album Pick".  (Note the keyboard shortcut; there is also a Toolbar icon for this.)  The change is immediate.  The Slideshow will always show the Album Pick (or, if there is not one, the Stack Pick) for every Stack in your Slideshow Album.

  • Can I use my old apple tv and new apple tv together on the same network and with the same tv

    Yes.

  • I can no longer burn a disc. The command to do so does not appear in my Files menu. All my recordings are 100% legal. I have installed a new version (it still looks the same), but that hasn't helped. I have done so before.

    All my music is from legal sources (albums owned by me, others from iTunes), but the Burn Disc command does not appear in the File menu, and nothing I do helps. I downloaded a new version of iTunes, but it still loks the same and may just be the same. But the problem started long before I did that.

    This did nothing. Where do I click on the playlist? As far as I have experienced, the playlist is a list of songs with ticks against them on the left. I can use the control key, but where do I point my cursor to select the playlist?
    You don't even need to show the general Sidebar as suggested by others.
    Select Playlists in the top buttons:
    then control-click on the playlist you wish to burn in left column, e.g.:

  • How do I rank or rotate a raw and jpg version (combo?)of the same photo with 1 click in Lightroom 4?

    Hi, i am new to this forum
    I did some searching, but could not find the answer.
    I only make stacks of exactly the same photos, but with different formats, mostly 2 jpg versions and a raw. If i change photos further, i unstack that photo, to see the different photos right away.
    So, i always want to apply changes to all the photos in a stack, because all basic versions have the same rank, should have the same rotation, and other exif data that i change.
    Does anybody know how to always change all photos in a stack in Lightroom?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    If you shoot RAW+JPEG, there is a spechial option in LR (Preferences>General>Treat JPEG files next to raw files as separted photos) which teats both as one item (unchecked).
    All your metadata change is appliled to both, but you do not see the JPEG in LR.
    I started with this setting on. But after a while, I recongnized, that I do not want the JPEGs anylonger. Why? Because I did two things:
    1. I tried to develop the RAW in a way it looks like the JPEG. Well, O.K. This is only usefull for a very limited number of images (low light, high light) where you have to rescue information from the RAW that is lost in the JPEG. For all other images, it is easier to use the JEPG
    2. I developed the RAW in a way that it looks different from the JPEG. I did so, because I want to show this version to others, not the JPEG. Therefore I deleted the JPEG.
    There is no way in LR to apply a function / preset to a stack. Only the marked images are affedted. This is the problem with stacks. E.g. you go into a folder with stacks, select all, export all selected and notice, that some images are missing (the ones in the collapsed stack). Every time I got into a folder with stacks and do not want to organize the images, I select "Expand all stacks" from he menu.

  • When I type in a name of a contact as a new message, their current number AND new number shows up as the same name as my options.

    Whenever I type the name (like Bill) into the recipient box, it shows their old number under the same too, so if Bill's number used to be (555) 555-5512, and I updated his new number to (555) 555-5598, when I type "Bill" into the recipient box, both of those numbers would show up under "Bill"

  • Will mac pro and monitors ordered together ship at the same time?

    Will Mac Pro and Thunderbolt monitors, if ordered together, ship at the same time? Or will they ship the in-stock monitors now initiating the Applecare start date for the whole order even though the Mac Pro is not expected to ship until sometime in March?

    I ordered the new Mac Pro (model 6.1) on December 18, 2013 along with a 27 in. Apple thunderbolt display.  The fully maxxed out new Mac pro shipped on January 8, 2014 and arrived January 13, 2014.  My Thunderbolt display shipped within 1-2 days of placing the order, i.e. the week of December 18th and arrived before Christmas.  A few days after receivng my new Mac Pro, I received the Apple Care paperwork and both the new Mac Pro and the Apple Thunderbolt display were listed with a start date of January 7, 2014, i.e. the day that my new Mac {ro was prepared for shipment -- not the day my thunderbolt display was shipped.

  • A self running lesson and a chapter navigation option in the same file

    My client has asked if their lesson can have a branching option at the very beginning that allows the learner to watch the entire lesson without having to click a next button or experience pauses between chapters or modules and a second option to select a TOC type screen where they can choose the specific chapter they wish to watch and then when the chapter is finished, the learner can choose to continue to the next chapter or back to the TOC screen.
    I understand that I can create that branching scenario, but in my version, I would be replicating the entire lesson (about 140 slides) to create the two paths, one path with the pause/navigation for the chapters and one without.
    Is there a better way to accomplish this style of navigation and keep the file as small as possible?  My Java skills are at a beginner level, so please include specifics if the solution will use Java.
    Thanks for your help and ideas.

    You can achieve this using variables and Conditional Advanced Actions in Captivate.  But it would not be a job for a Captivate beginner.
    You need to use the branching slide to set the value of a variable that indicates the user's choice of whether to watch all content or use the menu slide.  Then you need to use Conditional Advanced Actions triggered by ON SLIDE ENTER events to skip certain slides and play others.  You'll also need to set up the Menu slide and again use variables and Conditional Advanced Actions to return users to it after completing sections.
    If you are unfamiliar with these concepts, I recommend you watch the tutorials on this site: http://lilybiri.posterous.com/
    Like I said, it's not a task for a beginner.

  • I seem to be running two versions of firefox at the same time help!

    I seem to be running an older version and a new version of firefox at the same time. I run the new version from startup (it forgets previous tabs from last session) and this sadly does not let me use back and forward arrow buttons so its a bit useless. Strangely when I pop an email window up, the older version of firefox appears with the last few tabs I had browsed.
    disabling plugins stops browser starting in new version and back and forward arrows work ok.
    any help much appreciated!

    You can install them both but there are a few steps to take.
    When you install Firefox 4 use the custom installation option and choose a different location to install Firefox.
    In order to use both versions, you need to create a new profile for Firefox 4 (Firefox stores user data in the profile). Using the same profile with different versions can cause problems. Once you create a new profile you can copy certain data such as bookmarks and passwords between them. You can also use Firefox Sync to keep the profiles synchronized. Finally, you will need to set up shortcuts to launch the correct profile for each version.
    The following links show how to do this:

    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-sync (only needed for Firefox 3.6, it is built into Firefox 4)

    Highly unlikely that it says any such thing.
    Try telling us exactly what version of iTunes is installed and what if any messages appears when trying to update it.

  • I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    Add-ons contain a range of compatible Firefox versions, and Firefox honors the listed range by disabling the add-on if you are trying to run it on an unlisted version.
    I'm sure Yahoo! will update its toolbar eventually, but not every add-on maker supports beta versions of software.
