How to manage the library iTunes (Mac) 30 GB on 8 GB Clip +?

Hi there I just got my first player non-iPod, 8 GB Clip +.

I have my music on a Mac with iTunes I used to sync with an iPod using playlists according to genre or mood (using the fields of comments for example chill/run/etc.).  This way I could scroll my library as with each iPod synchronization of tracks information has been updated and replaced with new songs.  Very handy and, apart from the implementation of the selections, fully automatic.

Now with the Clip + I know I can only drag & drop from my Mac.  I know someone here wrote a script for iTunes playlists, but I don't think these can be automatically updated with each synchronization that the Clip does not communicate with iTunes.

I looked through some of the threads here and it seems that most of you listen to just their music according to artist or album.  So I wonder how power users here are listening to their music videos to get the most out of their largest libraries and ensure that they listen to their library tracks in the long term.

Thank you.

First thing, I suggest you becomes an expansion card... look a bit online, and you can usually find a card 8 GB under $20 and a 16 GB for about $40. For $200, you can get a 32 GB card, but for most of us, 32 GB cards can wait a while.

If you add a 16GB, which gives you a total usable 22.73 GB, which is what I have. From there on, my answer to try to keep a bit in contact with the entire collection is the random play mode. Activate random playback, select Play All, and there you go. If I have a penchant for an artist in particular that day, I can slect Play All for just this artist with shuffle turned on... then if I've got a new album, I'll listen to it in the appropriate method until I know that album... then he will enter in the random rotation.

My library total will not be on the Clip + as it is, and even if I had a 32 GB card, it wouldn't hold everything... but I found that with my 22,73 GB I can wear anything I might want to listen to on a day given... and shuffle mode will bring up the songs that I would not have thought to play artists can I thought for awhile.

Enjoy your Clip +... it can be a quite as transparent experience for a user of Mac, but there have been discussions here in the forums about how the Sansa and Macs work together.

  • Understand and manage the library.

    Hello!

    I just noticed the "this computer / library with the name ' button in the upper left corner of iTunes.

    I went in "to name library', and what I've seen there is a part of my music (not all my music) is not well organized (some older Genres are in there that I used to have) and some old playlists that I used to have.

    1_ how this music go?

    2_ KESAKO? (The library).

    If you see this control at the left end of the horizontal bar, which means that there is another computer on your local network that has iTunes home sharing is enabled.  This computer is the choice for the use of the iTunes library on your computer.  Library name is the choice to use the library iTunes shared on the other computer.

    NOTE: If two users are currently connected to the same computer in different user accounts, shared iTunes library could also be in the other user account.

    So, if you select the library name, you see songs in the iTunes library.  One who uses this computer put the songs in the iTunes library and it manages.

  • How to manage the photos Lightroom when using 2 computers, keeping any changes made on one or the other?

    Based on http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1308132?TSTART=0 I decided to add each question separately:

    Hello, I am very interested in buying Lightroom 5.2. I tried the RC that was missing today. Yet, I have several questions that I can't find really good conclusive answers, I'd like to get an answer before buying LR. Please do not write maybe like this or that (assumptions), because I don't want to start my entire workflow and then realize that I have to change all around, please reply, if you know for sure that something works and you are, preferably, using this method too.

    Is the big question, where I want to especially a conclusive answer:  How to manage the photos Lightroom when using 2 computers, keeping all the changes made on one of them, using the same photos for editing. I'm not going to use DNG. Details: I mainly use my old MacBook Pro, but I wish I could use my PC as it is much better (card: i5 2500K, 16 GB of RAM, SSD, USB3, nVidia GTX 560 TI etc.). I have 2 external HD that I could use, one for backup and one for the actual Photos/changes. I you will probably need to use as my internal HDs are fairly complete and I cannot be the kind of things simply delete or move to one (developer, without loss of music, programs etc.).

    On this basis, how do I save all such Photos folder (pictures and retouching and preferably presets too)?

    According to me, that it should be possible to work cross-platform without having to create a link to the files each time, or without having to keep export/import of the catalog, keeping the single catalog and the picture library on an external drive that is then switched between systems as needed.

    Obvious first requirement is an external drive that is formatted in a way (for example, FAT32) that it can be used on both platforms in read/write mode. Given that, if the catalogue AND folder parent si le catalogue ET le dossier parent images are both set to the same level in a global parent folder, then it should be possible to take advatage of ability of Lightroom to use relative paths instead of absolute paths to detect the images, no matter if the player is named (Mac) or lettering (PC). This is how "export as catalog of ' works, that is, it creates a 'package', alias a parent folder, containing the catalog and a replica of the folder hierarchy to exported along with the catalog images. Take this 'package' to another system (same OS or not) and "it works" even if the drive letter is different or the operating system is different... because the relative path of the image catalogue is always the same.

    I have not tested this cross-platform (if I have between various PC systems with letters of different readers) so for me it's still just a theory, but there may be others who have done this successfully.

  • iTunes error: the library iTune .itl file is locked. On a locked disk or you do not write to this file permission

    Original title: iTunes

    I have just updated from XP to 7. I downloaded Windows Easy Transfer, but it wouldn't work if I copied all my files on my external drive myself.

    Once Windows 7 had loaded, I started to transfer them to my computer.

    I tried just down load iTunes 10.1.1 from the internet, and everything seemed to go ok.

    But iTunes is not working and I get the following message "the library iTune .itl file is locked. "On a locked disk or youdo not write permissionfor this file."

    I saw this message on iTunes support and it is said that the 'My music' folder is located in the default location in Windows XP.

    Does that mean I lost my music and what should I do to be able to access/download the iTunes player.

    I have songs on different drives so I have quite lost music. I am simply unable to play my iTunes library because I can't access the drive.

    Thank you.

    P.s. I'm not very good with computers.

    Hello
     

    Change the permissions on the folder / my music/itunes (and all subfolders and files) so that it is not "read-only".
    Here's how:
    a. by doing a right click on the name of the iTunes folder, and then select Properties.
    b. you will see the read-only check box. Make sure it is disabled.

    If you haven't done so already, take a look at the action of com.vmware.libarary.soap.processOutParameters.  It is the action that generated the log you have placed in us.  It generates an object Properties (key, value pairs) with the value for each setting that results.

    In your case, assuming that 'outProps' is the result of the above, you can use:

  • Transfer the Aperture/Photo library to new Mac: how to manage the referenced pictures

    Here's the scoop.  I was a long-time user of Aperture with half of my pictures handled as pictures referenced to an external drive.  Photos, as I understand it, also sees the photos as mentioned.

    I then acquired a new iMac and want to now all of my photos to reside on his hard drive and I'll give up on opening.

    So, if I transfer the Photos library file to the new computer, how can I get these files referenced on the new computer?

    Do you want the photos to be referenced or you want to group as managed in the Photos?

    If you want to keep the referenced pictures, use Aperture on your old mac to move files referenced in a folder on the new Mac, before opening the Aperture Photo library to convert it to a library of Photos.

    If you are satisfied with transforming the library to a library of the crib, you can use pictures after the migration the photo library to build the library.

    Pictures has the command "file > consolidate" to move the intone library pictures and make managed, it has few tools to fix the referenced files broken, but it can not move the referenced files. No matter what move you want to do, do it in Aperture, while your library is still an Aperture library.

    Opening 3.6.is still work under MacOS X 10.10.3.

  • Help the library iTunes scrambled, please!

    Hello world

    A while back, when the passage of the libraries after remove and replace the external hard drive, my iTunes library stored on, I had to change the library in the on the external drive. After Okaying of the library has changed, instead of meaning no, I inadvertently called to make a copy of the entire library, leading to a copy of the folder of iTune all on the level of the root of the hard drive. Through "Show in Finder", I noticed some songs in the music library, nested in the iTunes folder where they belong, and some are in folders that are are duplicated on the hard drive. There are tunes newly uploaded in these two places and, curiously, a few old tunes in both. That's why I say tunes scrambled. I would like to somehow rectify this situation. I would just trash these records and their melodies that are copied, but then my library, my music would be dotted with missing sources and I must search for, find and relink if possible the pieces manually, which would be a daunting task. I'm hoping there's an elegant way to straighten out this mess. I know my way around the Mac well enough, but I never really had the same handle level on iTunes and now I'm paying for it. Can someone give me advice or a protocol to reorganize my library and/or resolution of this problem? Thank you very much in advance at any time and in review. Any suggestions are appreciated by all!

    I'm running iTune 12.3.3.17 on a '17 MacBook Pro 8 GB of RAM end ' 011 model with OS X 10.11.3.' My iTunes music library is stored on an external HD to 2 TB with 5 GB left to spare.

    All the best,

    David

    Buy a new 3T or the largest disk.

    Copy the files to the current library and file work in / / < Volume > / iTunes.

    Option Start iTunes to connect to the library on the new path.

    Change the media folder to / / < Volume >/iTunes/iTunes Media.

    Consolidate the library in the new media folder.

    When it is all tested and working clean the original disc and clone the iTunes folder at him as a backup with a tool such as Synkron.

  • How to use the library of small Photos on the MacBook Air

    I'm running out of space on my MacBook Air, and I prefer to store all my original photo in iCloud. How to keep the photo library on my Mac to the size of the strict minimum. Thank you.

    Are you already using iCloud photo library or you want to turn your photo into a photo library of iCloud library?

    To save storage on your Mac, select iCloud in the pictures library > Preferences > iCloud. also turn on "Optimize Mac Storage" in this Panel.

    Photos will replace originals in your library of optimized versions. But this process is dynamic. If you are short on storage, it will replace original more optimized versions. So, it will take some time, until your photo library becomes smaller. You cannot influence this process.

    A way to shrink the photo library immediately, is radical enough: wait until the first download of your photos is complete and all the pictures are on iCloud.  Make a current backup of your photo library by copying to an external drive.

    Then delete the photo library on your internal drive. Launch photos while holding down the key options and create a new empty library. This library in your system photo library and activate iCloud photo library with optimization of the storage.

    Now, all your photos will download as optimized versions and the library will be much smaller from the start.  However, it has some drawbacks.  Thumbnails of faces will be lost, also all of your projects. It will be like using your iCloud library another computer: use Photos and photo library on several Macs - Apple Support iCloud

  • How to remove the default iTunes genres in the most recent version?

    I've just updated to version 12.3.2.35 today and the localizable.strings file is not the same aspect it was.  There used to be just a bunch of channels, where I would like to delete those contained in the / * = Genres = * /, / * = kinds reduced = * / and / * = with Genres = * / categories.  However, the localizable.strings file looks like now as if it was some kind of compiled code or something and I can't seem to find where again to remove the default iTunes genres.  I don't really want to have a bunch of useless genres in my drop-down menus.  Does anyone know how to remove the default types?

    Looks like they changed to a binary file format, perhaps because changes to the file may affect the use of music Apple... which is unfortunate for those of us who do not use Apple music and wants to restrict the list of available types.  It can still be an alternative workaround, but certainly worth of reports via the iTunes of Apple Feedbackpage.

  • How to manage the rotaion of parts of Vision Assistant 8.0

    Hi, I'm new to Vision Assistant and my question concerns the rotation of a play about a test table. I found a tutorial to manage such situations for Vision Assistant 8.6. Here, he shows you how to rotate the region of interest and build a coordinate system based on the location and orientation of the reference model. The defined coordinate system option is not available in the category of Vision Assistant 8.0 image processing and I wanted to know how I could implement this in Vision Assistant 8.0?

    Well it worked, but with corresponding geometry, for some reason any I can't work with any special criteria but I'll work on that.

    Thanks Ajmal

    If someone wants to know how it is here. In Vision Assistant 8.0, I did a calibration of the image first, then a game of geometry. In LabVIEW I extracted the angle of geometric correspondence, 360 and cable adds the value in IMAQ image inversion.
