• Can I drag and drop files from my Mac in the time Capsule to free up space on my Mac?

  I currently use my Time Capsule in sync with Time Machine as a return "where" upward... I would like to know if I can drag and drop files to transport CANADA to free up space on my Mac.

  I would like to know if I can drag and drop files to transport CANADA to free up space on my Mac.

  Yes, but the fact that you can do something does not suggest that it would be wise to do. Please take a minute to think about it per.

  If you delete files on your Mac for free space and move them to the TC... so that only one copy of these files you will be on the TC.  What will happen to the files when... not if... you have a problem with the TC?

  A plan much better, faster and more secure would be to add a USB to your Mac and move your files there. Then, Time Machine can back up your Mac and the USB attached to your Mac to the TC.  It would be a minimum backup... plan your files 'master' on the USB drive and 'backups' on the TC.

• Music files to iTunes on Windows PC iPhone6:

  Transfer music files with 3rd party software... iPhone6 to iTunes on Windows PC:

  The 3rd party software that I use has CLEARLY each song correctly ID'ed (it is very visible in the data fields of the software), but when transferred to-iTunes 'album name' and 'name of the artist' morph in to "unknown artist" "unknown album".

  Can someone help me? This problem is horrible when you factor because I 18 815 songs on my iPhone & 50% of them are turning to 'unknown files during transfer.

  Are the tracks in .wav format? These are not marked, so the standard method of dumping the files extracted in the automatically add to iTunes folder and let iTunes makes sense of them will not work. I wrote a few scripts that match data in iTunes with that on a device through which it might be possible to adapt. File size and length can be unique and readable unit. First of all, I would like to know if I guessed correctly, and if so, I'll see what I can do.

• What happens to my music files and libraries as soon as apple Unassigns itunes?

  What happens to my music files and libraries as soon as apple Unassigns itunes?

  What makes you think that apple will stop downgrade iTunes? They make him billions.

  Even if they did whatever it is already downloaded would continue to work and all etc CDs you imported will also continue to work.

  The most likely scenario is that you have an older version of Windows (or Mac OS X), that cannot run the latest version of iTunes. If this is used, you'd still be able to run the old version already installed iTunes and still access your existing files. This applies to Windows XP for example.

• Cannot play music files because they are protected from the DMA

  Several years ago, I decided to save space at home by extraction of CD music on a hard drive external loads and binning then the CD I imported the files into iTunes, but the rest I left intact hard disk.

  Now, I find that I can't play all the music files because they have the DMA protection on them. Actually, it means that the music files that I had collected during his life and entrusted to storage of Microsoft (if only I had not sent the CD to the grave!) are lost forever.

  I tried to find instructions how to remove the protection (legally), but it seems incredibly complicated. I do not understand how, when, to my knowledge, I did anything illegal, it is allowed? It's not like I sold the CD or even given them!

  Someone at - it ideas how the hell I get permission to play music?

• Clip + - music files preloaded not visible in Windows Explorer

  Hello

  just got my new Clip + 4 GB. I plugged on the Windows 7 computer in MSC mode. In Windows Explorer, I see the complete folder structure and few files in the root folder. Explorer displays as well as the used space on the CLip + is 238 MB. However, all the files look empty! I can't find any single file of the music to the player. Can someone tell me how I can find these music files?

  Thank you very much!

  The music of the sample appears only when the player is in MTP mode.  Files placed in a mode can not be seen in the other in windows Explorer. If you love music, you can make a backup of it.  It cannot be downloaded if it is accidentally deleted...

• Sansa e280v1: impossible to find new music files in the player

  Hello world

  I am not fond of new posts, but I've tried various searches and couldn't find any satisfactory results...

  Recently, I tried to put the new music files in my Sansa (mp3 format), as I often do. There is already a good load of songs but enough remaining space. The problem is that the files into the device without any problem, but when I unplug, after the database update, music files would not appear in any of the categories of music (artists, albums, songs, etc.).

  I checked the labels so that they all ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1. Yet, after a retry, same result: the files are on the memory of the device but not recognized as music files.

  I tried to erase some previous files and put back them: even. New music (.mp3 or .wav) file seems to be not recognized as an audio file by Sansa.

  Can someone enlighten me, please? given that it is very frustrating...

  The firmware is 01.02.15J (purchased at the Japan)

  Sansa e280 v1.

  Thanx

  Ben.

  Well, guys, the solution was much simpler way.

  I do not format disks (always fear of losing important data in the process) so I asked questions about another solution before trying this one, but, as shown in the rest of the story, that's what I had to do.

  I just format Sansa, the new version of the firmware in it. Files with whom I used to have problems reading perfectly now. So I guess the problem might come from files may be corrupted, I had on the player beforehand.

  Anyway, thank you guys for your guest to support!

• Music files lost on PC, but still on the phone

  Hi, for some reason any selection of music files (not all) went from my PC when even records are still show here. However, the files are still on my Z3 Xperia SD card and play very well, but I can't transfer them here back to my PC... it's weird! I tried moving them via PC Companion and Media Go, but no luck.

  Is there any other way of pulling the files on my PC?

  Tony

  You mean you don't see all of the files when you open the folder in the phone which contains the files in Windows Explorer?

  If Yes, go to settings-> Apps-> all-> storage media-> clear data-> OK and then reboot the phone (this will not delete your files). The phone will then rescan all your media (this can take some time if you have a lot of media files). Then check the PC again. You should be able to copy them by drag and drop in Explorer.

• How can I access my music files through Windows Media Player?

  OK, here's the facts:
  I have Windows Vista.
  Most of my music in my music is missing.
  I can view and listen to the music of "missing" in Windows Media Player (library).
  In Windows Media player, if I click on a song and 'open file location' need me for my music, and the file is not there.
  Looking for songs via the start menu or through my computer does not work.
  MP3 audio files are also missing.

  Not having access to the original files, I can't add music files individually to my mp3 (Windows Media Player lets you synchronize files only, and I don't want to lose a part of the 'missing' files I have on my mp3 using the Sync feature).

  How can I access my music? Clearly, it is still on my computer somewhere since I can play through Windows Media Player.

  Hello

  Step 1: Check what all records are controlled by the player. Then check these records, if the music file is present.

• How to extract the same song, several times using different bit rates or formats and store all the digital music files in WMP 12 default on the same HDD music library

  Using Windows Media Player 12 (w/under Windows 7), "can I ripping the same song, several times, using different bitrates & and/or formats and store all the digital music files in the music library by default WMP - 12, on the same hard drive?

  1.) #1 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as a WMA file.

  2.) #2 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as an mp3 file.

  3.) #3 objective: NOT to each subsequent copy (version) of the song, deleted & and/or replaced by the previous version of the song [even].

  4.) question Bottom Line Up Front--> is Windows Media Player 12 (included with the Windows 7 operating system) are able to achieve '#1 objectives; #2; & #3 above?

  5.) details/example: I want to tear the piece "Maria Maria by Carlos Santana" to my laptop as a Windows Media Audio [WMA] file.  In addition, I would like to rip the song 'Maria Maria' three several times with 3 different bitrates in format WMA; and, as an MP3 file.  Therefore, my final result wished (after the extraction process), will take place the four 4 audio files split up as follows: (a) 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped @128 Kbps bitrate.  (b) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped to the "Variable bit rate; (c) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped commissioning "Lossless." and (d). 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: MP3 file. Ripped @256 Kbps bitrate.

  6.) my preference: I do NOT want to rename the file (s). {for example, 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana' renamed/changed for--> "Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_128kbps.wma",...} 'Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_256kbps.mp3 '; etc.}.  In addition, I am not concerned about the additional disk space that will be consumed after multiple copies of the same song with different speeds of transmission and different formats.

  7.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 10 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP - 10, my goal (s) described above is not a problem at all.  Simply insert the CD purchased by Carlos Santana, containing the song "Maria Maria"... Select the desired Format (WMA; WMA VBR; WMA Lossless; or mp3)... Select the desired flow rate (WMA... 128/160/192kbps_mp3: 128/192/256/320 kbit / s; etc.) ; and click on the "RIP" button to start the copy process on the hard disk of of Carlos Santana's "Maria Maria".  This process (w / WMP-10) would result in having the same song, copied on the hard disk, with levels of quality different "audio" (via the different bit rate settings); regardless of the format (MP3/WMA) which was chosen.

  8.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 11 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP 11, to described above of my objective (s) could not be reached e-a-s-i-l-y.  The problem with WMP - 11 - in short - which was after the desired selection "Rip settings" tab 'Options' of WMP - 11 (i.e., Format & Bit Rate) and heart-wrenching piece wanted to {'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'} a moment later/second, WMP11 remove / would crush the previous version of the song [even].  Therefore, the program would NOT allow the user to have multiple copies of the same song on the hard drive of the PC; which obviously restricts a user to have the freedom to choose what level of quality digital audio, they prefer to listen to.

  9.) the ability to have multiple copies [at my descretion] of the same song (on my hard drive) with different bitrates and formats in my music library, is important for me because it has a direct impact on "how I enjoy MY music ', and in what form (audio quality), I choose to listen to my music.  {For example, when I exercise and listening to my camera, digital audio player (Zune), a song ('Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'), will usually be torn off at a lower rate due to the unit of capacity reduction of storage - compared to the storage capacity of notebook PCs/desktop/external hard drives PC.}  However, when I listen to my music through my home cinema or entertainment system (which contains a hard disk dedicated with a large storage capacity), I prefer to load the entertainment system with digital music files that have been ripped to WMA... with the bit being rate-setting is for the: settings "WMA Variable Bit Rate" or "WMA Lossless.

  10.) there you have it.  This is my first post in this forum.  I hope that [detailed] explanations, will be sufficient to encourage these "with knowledge & the hands on experience" using Windows Media Player 12 (as well as with WMP-10/WMP-11 respectively), by providing a [step] "How-to"... "solution to my situation.  It would be highly appreciated.  I'm looking forward-'the solution' - and relevant suggestions & and/or community feedback regarding my request for assistance.

  * Thank 'All' (that would) in advance... For your time & Assistance *.

  Certainly, you can, but I would say that they be in different folders, for your convenience as well as Windows.  You can create one for each debit/format, then you will know who is who.

  In Windows Media Player, on the toolbar, select Tools, Options, Rip, and then select the flow you want first, rip music, then change the folder (higher on the same tab) and rip again... and so on and so forth.

  When you are at home on your home theater, you can use the 320 bitrate folder, when you transfer to the Zune, you can use one of the lower bitrate files (although I personally tear it up to 320 and let the Zune reduce as he wants, even with the iPhone via iTunes, hard drive space is not really a problem here) my server has several hard drives, and I can always add more if and when space is low!

• WMP music files will not play

  I recently did a system restore and all my music files have been backed up on CD. After the restoration, I copied and pasted the files music mu. Now it shows all my files but the habit of playing. A msg comes up and says that WMP cannot play because he recognizes "format it was compressed in origiohally." All of my music came from a friend who has a MAC. So I think they were MP4. But he did sort of play. I don't know how to convert them or something on the conversion of files. Can someone pleas help me. Thank you very much

  Hi Kevin...

  I think that the simplest approach here would be for you to download "iTunes for Windows" from apple. If the files are as you suspect in a format "apple/mac" they play well in the iTunes player... (you need to import into iTunes from your music folder). If you prefer to use WMP, you can use iTunes to create an mp3 version of the files (if only they are not protected against copying).

  Get "iTunes for Windows" from the link below and get back to me if you have problems to access to the (or playing) files. (UK link - select the box under the "Download" button.)

  https://www.Apple.com/UK/iTunes/download/

  BTW... When you mention "System Restore" do you mean a re-install? You don't have to back up your system restore files - they are not affected... (It is a good policy to back up your files well!)

  Ric's soon.

• The music files are being duplicated

  The music becomes duplicated for any reason, are another. Is their program on them to stop this or is their thing I do to stop the progress of duplication of these files and others?

  Hello

  1. don't you make changes on the computer before the show?
  2. what anti-virus software is installed on the computer?
  3. what player you use to play music?
  4 is the issue limited only with the music files?

  
  If you use windows on the computer media player, you can try the methods provided and check.
  
  Method 1:
  I suggest that you try to reset the media library, also note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Then, follow these steps:
  a. restart the computer.
  b. Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
  c. Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  d. in this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.

  Also, you can find the link to display the files and folders.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/show-hidden-files

   
  Method 2:
  You can also try to stop the music files to be automatically added to your library by following the steps.
  a. in Windows Media Player, on the Tools menu, click Options.
  b. on the Player tab, clear the files of music to add to the library when played check box.
  
  Method 3;
  Alternatively, you can run a Microsoft security scanner to make sure that the computer is free of infection by the virus:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
  WARNING:
  If you run the antivirus program that is infected by the virus scan will get deleted. Therefore, reinstall the program. Also if the files and folders are affected by the virus, they could even get
