  • ITunes library and duplicate the items and folders of Windows Explrr

    I have a 2 or 3 General questions on iTunes.  I download all my iTunes on a PC and play really.  That is why the questions about iTunes folders in Windows Explorer.

    1 how to produce duplicates in the library?  I have loads.  I saw the advice to remove them.  This helps a little but it's still a task to be piecemeal.    How to stop what is happening in the first place?

    2 in addition to the duplicates.  Last night I went in Windows Explorer on the PC that I use to download and play iTunes and entered the iTunes Media/Music folder.   I walked carefully each folder album deleting duplicate here.   However, on opening iTunes itself today, duplicates all seem to be still there in the library list.   Why it did not work?  ITunes is not loading the content of this folder?  If this is not the case, why I was informed to support?

    3 What does the symbol of iCloud next to some of the tunes?  If I run the cursor over them, it says 'download '.   But surely I downloaded it when I bought and added to my library?    Why should I download it again?  That this symbol that the melody in question can not play if the PC is offline?

    4 one of the songs in my library list appeared today in my Windows Explorer iTunes Media/Music folder.   I can I have accidentally deleted while I was removing the duplicates it and have now downloaded it in the album in this folder.    Probably so, iTunes library does not constantly in the folder of music on a Windows PC?    He only takes over here if the backup is necessary?

    If so OK but other files appear in the library that do not exist and he asks me if I want to find the file?

    I guess that my confusion stems from the assumption that the iTunes Media/Music in Windows Explorer folder should indicate precisely what will appear in the library in the app.

    Vondegru,

    With regard to questions 2 and 4: iTunes does not automatically "load" all the files in the folders.  You can do an analysis of initial unique optional optional when you install iTunes, which will add all are compatible files in the iTunes library.  After that, files not added unless you take action to add.

  • NAS200 - cannot access personal folders of Windows

    Live chat with Linksys re: NAS200: my side of it.

    On a NAS200 I install a user called 'jon' with a personal file and a password. Problem is, I don't see how now to access folder Jon of Windows XP in the same way that I can access the public folder.

    I get "\\Nas200_9792de\public disk" Windows and files read/write without problem, including several subdirectories, I created it there.

    After you create a user, I guess I would then be able to access the file with something like \\Nas200_9792de\jon for example. I tried a drive letter of mapping, but get an error message

    on "network folder is mapped currently...... try a different username. But

    nothing alse is currently mapped.

    If I try"add a network place" I get "the folder you entered is not valid. Please choose another. "

    I've updated the firmware to V3.4R75, but this made no difference

    I searched throughout the "NAS200 User Guide.pdf" and he gives no explanation on how to access the personal folders of Windows.

    I searched also Linksys FAQ but could not find a help there.

    Sincerely, Shaun.

    You can try using the network drive mapping utility that is included on the cd to map the file. To map a shared folder, please follow the instructions of thses:

    Right-click on the icon in the system tray. Click shared folder mapping. The folder mapping split screen appears. Select the appropriate network storage System.Select the shared folder if you don't see the folder you want, click the Refresh button. Keep the default drive letter or enter a different letter in the field of training. Then click on the map button. The shared folder opens automatically, and a new window will appear to inform you that the shared folder has been mapped. Click the OK button. On the mapping of shared folder screen, click on the close button. Double Clcick workstation. the shared folder will appear as a network drive.

  • How to separate contacts in folders in Windows Contacts?

    I have 2 iPhones I want to synchronize with the same Windows user and iTunes. I managed to sync all music, videos and whatnots already because I wanted to do the same. However, the contacts in both phones are different. Is it possible to separate contacts in 2 folders in Windows Contacts so that I can choose contacts to sync with iTunes folders?

    Thank you!

    It cannot be done directly with Windows Contacts (Finally, perhaps depending on how work iPhones).  You can create folders separated for each of you to keep separate contacts (and move them to the appropriate folder whenever a new contact is added), but they will all sync if you use the normal method (unless the normal method allows you to enter a specific case - then you're all set).  I don't know if this will help as I know vaguely how to sync contacts, but if it is possible that the contacts are stored in different folders if created in different folders in the Windows Contacts (Vista iPhones both), then it may be possible to simply check synchronize these files instead of Windows Contacts in general and therefore separate them.  I don't know if this is possible in iPhones but in Vista, contact information is stored in C:\Users\\Contacts and Contacts, it can be separated by folders (organize / new folder) which will bring the folder main Contacts in separate folders within him - in the iPhone, it can simply go in the a contacts database and thus be inseparable with no record separate information but if you contact they know.

    But if we can not do normally as described above it is still possible.  I think that the product is to SyncToy:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=C26EFA36-98E0-4EE9-A7C5-98D0592D8C52&displaylang=en.  I'm not 100% sure SyncToy will work with iPhones (actually, I'm sure that it will not so it is probably not an option) but you can try with the main folder and see if it works (the trick and the key will be if it installs on the iPhone).  If so, you can then go ahead and separate contacts in both files you create and then configure synchronization to use these subfolders instead of the main folder.

    I hope this helps.  If none of these options work, then I'm afraid that I don't know other options to try except to communicate with iPhones and see if they have any suggestions.

    Good luck!

  • All the apps to color code the names of files and folders from Windows 7, as on the Macintosh?

    Before I upgraded to Windows 7, I had a wonderful program on my XP machine called Xentient labels, which have changed the windows explore interface so I could have any icon file or folder on any drive highlighted in any color I want, as with Macintosh.  As a blind person it is very important to me and helps me organize and find things faster.
    Can anyone recommend any software that could do this for Windows 7, please?    Thanks for any help or advice!

  • Calculate the size of the user profile folders in Windows 7

    Hello

    I just wanted to calculate the size of the user profile folders in Windows 7 then I wrote a VBScript script that accepts the path of the file whose size is a subfolder must be calculated (in my case - C:\Users). The script runs without error, however, in the output that is a log file, I get the error 'Permission denied' instead of the size of the file. The script works very well under Windows XP where user profiles in "C:\Documents and settings".

    Then can someone suggest a method to work around this additional security & get the user profile folder sizes in Windows 7 please?

    Thank you.

    Thank you.

    Here are a few options:
    • Logging in as an administrator account, and then run the script under elevated privileges.
    • Create a scheduled task that is running under the system account. Polish your script so that it writes its output to a file.
  • I cannot create new folders in Windows 7

    It seems that I've lost the ability to create new folders using Windows 7.  Here are the details of my system:

    Computer: Dell Latitude E6330
    Processor: Intel Core i7 - 3520M
    System: 32 bit OS
    OS: Windows 7 Professional

    Here's what I've tried so far:
    (1) tried to make a right click on the desktop, without any available menu options (Failed)
    2) tried to create a new folder in Windows Explorer using the new folder (Failed)
    3) connected to the computer by using the admin account and repeat 1 and 2 (failure)
    (4) technical note followed by support, checked the values of registry HKEY and restarted maching (Failed-no effect)
    (4) hard disk access on network from another computer on Windows 7 (64 bit professional) and
    attempted to create folders by using the user account and administrator (success-Iwas able to create folders)

    This seems a problem isolated to the recent updates of the Windows 7 32-bit system.  Are there indications as to what to do?

  • Unable to find files and folders using Windows Search

    Original title: Windows search returns no results, but only for a single user - another user works very well - Windows 7

    All of a sudden windows search of files and folders (from windows Explorer) do not return results - even if I'm looking for in a folder with a file name that I know is in there.  However, it works for the other user on this system.

    The things that I tried or looked at who did not work:

    • Configuration of the default folder options.
    • reconstruction of the index
    • sfc/scannow - said "windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to solve some of them.  I have the CBS. If necessary log file.
    • research done that windows has been archived 'Tour of the windows features turn on or off.
    • Ran the registry of Windows Search - he said that he fixed two things (cannot tell you what they were now), but still, it does not solve the problem. When I run it says once again that there are no errors.
    • I checked this registry key:
      HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanced\\\ and key Start_SearchFiles - which was set to 2, the default
    • Under Customize Start Menu - search with public folders is selected under search for other files and libraries.

    It still does not work.  The search box in the start menu seems to work, but not for anything I get.

    Frustrated!
