  You can move the inserted text to a different location on the picture, if yes how?  How can I put the character and the Panel clause up in the photo shop when you type test?

  Yes.  I find it easier to type text, and then use the move tool (shortcut V) (looks like an arrow) to place it where you want.

  To bring up the character and paragraph panels go to WINDOW > CHARACTER or WINDOW > PARAGRAPH.

  I hope this helps.

• Cannot move iTunes library.itl on the desktop

  When I turned on my PC today, I found all my iTunes library has been deleted no aparent reason.

  Fortunately, I had saved a copy of the library and all the playlists in my hard drive, but in any case whenever I open iTunes, now it says that the library is corrupted, so I have to import the saved old library every time. My music is not lost, but it's annoying to do this, of course.

  So I read Apple's Support article on the recovery of the iTunes library, and I tried to follow the steps but when I come to step "Drag the iTunes Library.itl file to your desktop", an error (I'll try to translate it because my computer is in Spanish, it may not be the exact words) :

  "This file cant't be moved due to an unexpected error." If you continue to receive this error, you can use the error code to get help for this problem.

  Error 0 x 80070570: the file or directory is corrupted or unreadable. »

  How may I order? I know the other option is to delete it, but I can't do either.

  It is without saying I have not iTunes open when I do this task, of course.
  Also, I looked at the error, but Microsoft did not have an appropriate response. He asked me if I tried to change the directory of the file, but I'm afraid I don't know how to do it.

  My operating system is Windows 7

  Any help is appreciated, thanks

  Restart your computer. See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.

• Need simple explanation - move iTunes library to new PC

  I'm looking for a simple explanation of the functioning to the iTunes library to MOVE from one PC to another. The current/old computer will go far. KEY: need to keep notes of the song and playlists.  The last time I did I lost the scoring for thousands of songs and lost all the selections.

  New is Windows 10

  Is there a software that will do this for me?

  THANKS FOR THE HELP!

  • Where appropriate, consolidate your library so that all media included in the library are stored in iTunes standard media folders
  • Copy the complete library (whether as a result of the default values of iTunes, this will be C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes) from the old PC to the location on the new PC
    • If the library is small, if would be possible to copy over a network or using a USB
    • for large libraries, use an external hard drive as an intermediate storage device
    • Although the Windows copy and paste standard functions ' should be enough, third-party utility (I use Terracopy), or the method described in the user tip of turingtest2 on the backup of your iTunes for Windows with SyncToy library, may be more resistant to errors possible/interruptions during the copy process
  • If you have already installed and launch iTunes on the new PC, you need to overwrite all the files/folders is already present in C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes (this implies that you haven't added all the new PC which is not present on the old media).
  • Now launch iTunes on the new PC - the method described above ensures that data from the old PC iTunes (which is where are stored all your playlists, ratings, etc.) is available on the new.
  • An additional advantage to do this correctly, is that the new PC has now a physical copy of the same logic of the old library, so all iDevices will see this 'the same' library and you can continue the synchronization operations without risk of deletion of the device.

• How re - map my iTunes library to a different HARD drive?

  I recently installed a new hard drive (HDD) and moved my iTunes music on this disc.  Now, when I try to access the music in iTunes, I get an error message that it cannot be found and asks me if I want to locate.  I choose a song among my thousands or so look for it on the new HARD drive and iTunes find and he plays.

  How to re - map my entire library without re-mapping each of the thousand individual songs?

  Thank you

  It depends on what you actually put on the disk. A library is all files and folders in the iTunes folder. This includes an .itl file that stores information about all the music in your library and where these files are located.  If it is kept as a package when moving you can start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and show iTunes where the .itl with information is kept. If you only move media files to a new drive there are several options, but I'm not typing in all this information until I know what you need.

• Help!  Large iTunes library split into two locations, how to fix?

  Long ago, I told iTunes to store its iTunes Media on a NAS file and I copied the iTunes folder all my D: to the NAS unit.  I also said iTunes to keep organized records and copy files of music added to the NAS.

  I just found out by examining the XML file that iTunes thinks about half of my music files (~ 7,000 of them) are located on the D: drive and other ~ 7 000 are there where I want it all, on the NAS.  Number of files on the NAS which I however contained artist/album music files are empty; the files appear to have been erased and are still on the D: drive where the XML points to them.  Management of iTunes files (XML. ITL, etc..) iTunes is now current are also on the D: drive... those on the NAS are not kept up to date.

  I thought my massive library - countless hours to rip my CD - safe on the multi-plate RAID NAS.  Goes, if I lose my D: drive (which I was backup is no longer) I lose half of my library and all of my iTunes administrative folders.  Ouch!

  How can I get safely iTunes exclusively use the SIN for all the data files and of the administration?

  If I re - copy data from D: to the NAS and edit the XML file to point to the NAS for all files, iTunes will not even watch D: for the management of the library?  How can I do forget d everything?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  By modifying the file XML will not help at all - iTunes only writes to this file, the bed ever.  Assuming that all of your media plays correctly then you should be able to consolidate your library (file > library > organize library > consolidate files).  This will copy all the multimedia files that are not in the iTunes media folder location specified in Edit > Preferences > advanced to this location.  Note, however, that many reports suggest that iTunes + SIN is not an ideal combination; You can be better to use a standard external drive for your library and use the NAS device for backups.  You can also watch the advice to user turingtest2 on do a split cell library for more details on the optimization of available to your library.
