How can I copy just my music from my iMac

My old Macbook (2007, snow Lep), does not have the capacity for ALL my iTunes files and I want to just load it up with my music from my iMac (2012, El Cap)

How do I get there?

See you soon

Just the song files?

Use an external drive or a high-capacity USB flash drive.  Show your music library in the iTunes window, read and classified as desired.  Open the USB in a Finder window.  Select the songs you want on the list of the songs and drag and drop out of the iTunes on the USB window (in the Finder window).  iTunes copies files of the song selected on the USB.  You can do this with one or several folders of songs selected at the same time.  If you use the view Albums or artists in your music library, you can drag and drop a full album or songs by an artist.

Take the USB key and plug it on the MacBook.  Add the USB song files in your iTunes library on the MacBook

NOTE: If you know how to configure the sharing of files between two Macs, you can transfer your music files directly between Macs.  However, depending on the size of the transfer and the speed of your connection network using a USB key can be much faster.

  • How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive?

    How can I copy files from project Waveburner to another internal drive without losing the connection to the files audio orig.?

    Thank you for your time,

    Since no one answered my call, I sat and researched and studied WaveBurner behavior and I can myself answer my question and solve. Since there were a lot of people asking similar questions on WaveBurner files I will post what I learned.

    Whenever you drop your audio files in the list window to make your WaveBurner CD copy not copy your audio files, but relies on the original audio file, where they are located. So whenever you move the files orig. and you open WaveBurner, it can't find those and displays an error window to suggest it will search for the missing file or if you know where he is now lets you find manually. WaveBurner usually place the .wb3 project file that contains everything including your home folder.

    For this reason, I reserve now an audio file WaveBurner also folder in my home folder. In order to save themselves from WaveBurner cannot find the audio file, all audio files that I do, I put in my folder of audio files WaveBurner first, then copy them in WaveBurner from there.

    When I need to use a bigger hard drive I copy .wb3-WaveBurner projects based, but also my

    Sound folder WaveBurner for the home folder on the new hard drive.

    WaveBurner is now all audio files without problem.

    I hope that this will be a unique problem to someone else. Happy WaveBurning.
