Two separate issues I'm trying to solve here...input appreciated on both or either!
I have an iMac and a Macbook connected to each other via wifi. The main music and photo library are on the iMac. It has a iTB Time Capsule (used strictly for backup) and a separate 250GB Hard Drive connected, which contains the music and movie library. It is now full, so many files are stored separately on the laptop.
Issue #1. I am looking for potential storage solutions which would allow me update and access my music, video, and photo libraries from either computer, without necessarily storing the actual files on the computer itself because there is not enough space. Any new playlists, albums, or preferences would be identical on both machines and updateable (sp?) from either machine.
Issue #2. My wife and I both have iPhones. I gave her my old 3G when I updated to a 4. Many of my old apps are still on her phone, even though it is obviously in her name. We are now sharing and updating the same contact file, which we cannot do because of confidentiality issues. (She is a therapist, I am a teacher). Is there a way to setup both computers to update either phone? Does she need her own iTunes account?
Thanks in advance!
