OS X :: Setting Up ITunes On External HDD?
Apr 11, 2010install Snow Leopard. It is my main computer now and I need to run my itunes off of an external drive. The library is bigger than the HD - so I copied the "iTunes Music" folder to the external drive.
I now have a brand new clean install of snow leopard, and the itunes music folder with all my media on an external drive. What is the next step for this specific situation? Do I need to change the location of the database file and hit "consolidate"?

Nov 16, 2008My little sister constantly gets on my computer, which is fine, except for when she opens itunes. I have songs that are explicit and don't want her to listen to. Is there any way to have itunes require a password when clicked on in the dock, so that itunes would not open without my password. I realize that I could just log out each time or require the password when waking from sleep, but really itunes is the only app I don't want her opening.

OS X :: Setting Up Mac Mini With A Raid Cabinet / Run ITunes From Same Library?
Nov 4, 2009I'm using a Mac Mini (C2D 2.0 + 2GB Ram + 10.6.1) as a server with a Raid cabinet connected to it on the fire-wire port.I then add the Raid disk to my startup items on my Mac pro so i can access everything on the raid disk.
I also run the program ShareTool on the mini so i can access files and music from work, i have iTunes running on the mini so it automatically shows up as a shared library at work.
I feel i loose connection to the server if i don't use it for a few min and it even pauses between playing songs in iTunes or when i try changing album. When i click the mini it mostly shows i'm not connected and i have to wait for it to reconnect or click "connect as" to redo it.My questions are:
1. Is there a better way to run a Mini + connected Raid disk so it will stay connected?
2. I have my iTunes library on the Raid disk and add music from my Mac pro but also have ot run iTunes from the same library on the Mini so i can access it from work over VPN, is there a better way to do this so i don't have to copy the actual library from MP to Mini each time i change it?

ITunes :: Apply An Equaliser Setting To Multiple Tracks?
Jun 22, 2012I am trying to dispense with my Bose speakers - they clutter things up with too many wires. I can get acceptable sound quality from my Mac speakers if I adjust the equaliser settings but adjusting the setting track by track will take forever. Is there a way to apply an equaliser setting (say, Bass Booster) to several tracks at once? If not I guess I will have to invest in wireless speakers.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Setting Up My New MBP When I Already Have A SSD?
Jan 5, 2011I'm pretty Mac savvy but I started thinking about what I'm gonna do when I get my new MBP in a few days and I have a question.
I currently have an older MB that I recently put a 256 SSD in (knowing that I would soon transfer it to a new machine)... I have no need for a fresh start or anything, I would like to keep all my software/plug-ins authorized and my prefs the same and all that. So I think that I could just transfer my SSD into the MBP before I even turn it on, right? ... But my issue is this... If I do just put my current drive in the new MBP will it recognize that it's a new machine and know to go through all the registration process? Or, should I start it up out of the box for registration and warranty purposes, then install the SSD?
I'm sorry if i'm not making any sense... wasn't really sure how to phrase this question...
OS X :: Setting Up My HP All-in-one?
May 31, 2010 so after doing some searching on here I'm not really finding anything specific enough.
I basically need a dummy walk-through on this. I have an older HP 5510v all-in-one. It is connected to my HP desktop in another room. I would like to install it on my Macbook and iMac wirelessly. I do not have the installation disc, though i did go to HP's site and downloaded and installed the OS X 10.6 driver on my iMac.
This is where my lack of intelligence on the matter shines through... what the heck do i do now? lol
I have a wireless network in my house, though I've never printed wirelessly and don't think my printer is on the network... I really have never set a printer up for anything like that. I really like my old 5510 though been a great printer.
IMac :: Setting Up My SSD?
Sep 22, 2010I'm going to install a 120gb SSD in my 27" iMac core i7. Currently I have a 2TB Hitatchi drive installed. I would like to install OSX as well as all my apps on the SSD and then keep all my user files on the 2TB drive. I'm trying to figure out the best way to get this set up once I install the SSD.
Right now I have all data, apps and OSX on the 2TB drive. Here's what I'd like to do. Once I install my SSD I'm going to do a fresh install of OSX and my apps. Then I'd like to remove OSX and apps from my 2TB drive and only keep my user files on it. My questions are ...
1. What's the best way to remove OSX from my 2TB drive? Do I have to erase the disc and then load all my user files once its been erased.
2. Also, is it ok if I keep OSX and all my apps on the 2B drive as well as my user files but still boot from the SSD? I would only be accessing my user files on the 2TB drive but wonder if I can still keep the OS and apps installed at the same time. Assuming I could but it would kind of be a waste of space, right?
3. Once I get both SSD and 2TB drive set up how I want them, I need to regularly back both of them up using CCC. I have a 3TB external drive that I backup to. Will I need to create 2 partitions on it, one for the SSD and one for the 2TB? I would like the SSD partition to be bootable incase the drive ever fails I wont miss a beat. I'm assuming to back both of them up I would need to create separate partitions on my external drive, one for the SSD and one for the 2TB.

Apr 13, 2009I'm a bit new to the whole Mac scene. I'm trying to figure out how to set up a network for my office, and I have a few questions.
1. Can I have my modem plug into a Time Capsule and use that as a router, or do I need an airport? This relates to question 2.
2. I want to have a server to store all of my data. 1TB will be plenty. Do I need to buy an XServe, or can I just buy a 1TB Time Capsule?
Basically, I want to know if I can use a Time Capsule as both a router and a server. I will have 6 computers in my office using this wireless internet. Would I be better off buying an Airport Extreme and an Xserve? What does an Xserve offer that a Time Capsule does not?

OS X :: Setting Up Mail On MBP?
Jun 22, 2010I have a few questions about mail on my MBP and setting it up...
First of all, it has automatically selected POP3, how does this work? If I delete an e-mail on my MBP, will it delete it from the server (I am using hotmail)
Can I have more than one account on Mail and will I be able to switch between accounts easily?
I am getting an iPhone 4, on which I will also be setting up mail, will this cause any conflict?
Also, what is better, POP3 or IMAP?
How often does it sync?
MacBook Pro :: Setting Up An SSD On A MBP?
Aug 5, 2010I changed the 7200rpm hard drive in my MBP for an SSD drive, but I don't think that the computer or the OS is initially accessing it correctly.
The time between turning on the power button and seeing the apple logo is about 15 seconds, which is worse than it was with the old drive in. That was about 5 seconds.
Initially, the time with the SSD was 45 seconds, but after doing a reset pram and the SMC and that helped to cut it down to 15 seconds.
These fixes lead me to think that there is something at the basic bios or OS level that may be interfering with the quick startup.
Everything after that point is a lot faster with the SSD, including the rest of the startup and the loading of applications, but there is something going on at the initial startup that causes the process to delay.

OS X :: Setting Up Users For First Time?
Nov 6, 2008I am setting up a new iMac for my parents and since I'm a noob to macs myself (had one for only a few months now) I was wondering what's the best way to set up user accounts. I need to create two accounts so ma/pa can log in and access their own settings, look and feel etc. They are moving from windows XP where they had their own user profiles (dad would leave his desktop littered with icons while mom kept hers nice and clean) so I need to keep two profiles otherwise this would confuse them. I guess my most important questions are:
1. Should I create a separate admin account first when setting up the iMac then create the addition two accounts, or just create two with one of them being an admin. I intend to put something like LogMeIn on there so I can remote in to do any maintenance for them, install apps etc.
2. Dad uses AOL mail and Mom uses Yahoo. I would like to setup Mail so that they can access their emails without using the web mail apps. Question: When the mail accounts are setup are they only seen when logged in under each user profile? In other words, will Dad only see his email in Mail then when Mom logs in she'll see her email etc. or will they both see each other's mail?
