I know this has all been covered millions of times before but please enlighten me as I do not have a clue and need all your wisdom.
I have a 32gb 3gs - which I am pretty confident with - I have filled it with Apple Lossless music and have to manually sync it because I cant get all my cd collection on it.
My wife has just got a work 16gb one. No offence to her but i do not want to share my libary with hers (Abba,Elton John,Lady Garbage - need i go on). She also has no Apple id which I guess she just needs to set up ? And syncing it would, i guess be a nightmare.
She has a very limited work pc and we have an all singing big memory Sony Vaio laptop.
Can i run 2 itune accounts from 1 x laptop or would it be better to run her account from her work laptop ? Also, if her work laptop gets upgraded, will she lose her libary ? ideally, I want to be able to sort it all out from our personal laptop - the Sony.
What is the easiest way to sort this out ?
Also, while i am at it - I have an external hard drive - how do I back up my libary on to it - its a 500gb one so storage should not be a problem.
Can you please make all answers in simpleton terms please because I do suffer from pc / itunes technophobia.
Oh and one last thing - If i rip a mix cd - how do i do it without itunes putting gaps on all the tracks ?
Advise would be most welcome.
Cheers.
