Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad?

Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad? I have hundreds (maybe thousands) of PDF files for technical work items that I need to categorize and use on my ipad but it is a bit cumbersome to manually move them one at a time on the ipad.

While you can add pdf files to iTunes it is not really intended to be used for organizing things other than a music collection.  It will only accept PDF files and media (audio, movie) files.  On the other hand if you can creatively come up with a way to make it work for you then go for it.

  • Can i manage ibook collections on itunes, rather than on the ipad

    can i manage ibook collections on itunes, rather than on the ipad.

    did you mean, iTunes Store and then Books?  thats the only thing i can find (following your notes above).
    what I am trying to do is add PDF documents to iBooks and organise them into collections. 
    however, i have found a work around:
    1. transfer the PDFs to the library (they go into Books automatically)
    2. highlight/select the PDFs that I want to group
    3. right click, get info, info tab
    4. create a Genre.
    doing this method creates categories.  not as good as collections, but this will do for now.
    if anyone can tell me how to create collections for iBooks (using iTunes - not iBooks on the iPad); please reply.
    thanks anyway.

  • Webapps.  How can I create a link to a page instead of showing the details-view

    I want my client to define what page a webapp shall point to in list-view, instead of showing the  details view, but I cant figure out how.  I have tried this, but it seams that tags don't work inside links:
    <a href="{tag_my_custom_link}">{tag_name}</a>
    .. does any one know how to do this?

    The problem is the format of your tag.  If your field name in the web app is "My Custom Link" then your tag is {tag_My Custom Link} (note the spaces).
    Cedric is right though, make sure the field is a textfield and not a hyperlink field in your web app.  If you use BC's new "Develop" tab up top you can navigate to your web app detail layout in /Layouts/Web Apps/<yourwebapp> and find "list.html".  Then, you can use the toolbox on the right (click the data tab) to insert tags without having to guess.  You can choose your custom field and insert the tag.

  • How can I create and export a file in 1024x768? Is the size supported in FCPX?

    I'm trying to create a video to export and upload on YouTube, and we want to do it at 1024x768. FCPX does not support this file size. Ideally how can I
    1) Create a canvas size in 1024x768 (or the same aspect ratio)
    2) Export my video at 1024x768 (here it has to be the exact dimensions).
    I feel so dippy, this seems like it should be obvious but I can't figure it out! Closest I've gotten is 2048x1556. Thanks for any help!

    The technique explained in the Creative Cow tutorial works perfectly. I use it all the time for the odd aspect ratios we work in for video walls. It does feel odd working in FCPX without creating a Project (Compound Clips are stored in Events) but hapily you have all the editing capabilities in a Compound Clip timeline as you do in a Project timeline.
    It would be nice if FCPX allowed us to enter custom sizes for Projects like one can in FCP7. But FCPX with this technique actually handles odd aspect ratios better than 7 did. I used to run color shifts and transition problems doing this in 7.
    I once called Apple tech support about the problems in 7 and they told me that although you can enter custom resoulutions in FCP7, Apple doesn't support anything other than standard resolutions. I guess they clarified that position with FCPX.
    Come on Apple (and YouTube and Vimeo.) Not everyone lives in a 16x9 world. My daughter, as do most teens, shoots all video at 9x16. Surely that resolution will soon have to be supported.

  • HT201343 If i can mirror from and older mac in iTunes why not from the mac itself?

    I have a 2010 macboook pro, the forum states that I should not be able to use mirroring with apple t.v. however, I can mirror things from Itunes, if itunes can my computer should be able to as well, right?

    That's not mirroring, that's basic airplay. Mirroring is showing exactly what is on your computer via the Apple TV.
    Airplay mirroring requires the newer processor to encode the video.

  • HT204074 I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone.  Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    I have our music collection on iTunes Match for my PC, ipad and iphone. 
    Can I share that music collection with my wife so she can play that with her iphone?  Even though she has a different Apple ID from me?

    Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.

  • Any way i can create and manage SharePoint 2013 workflows in browser.

    Guys,
    is there any way i can created and manager sharepoint 2013 workflows in browser like Nintex lets you do. This will eliminate the need for sharepoint designer.
    thanks
    MM

    No. SharePoint's work flows are created from SharePoint Designer or Visual Studio. Third party solutions like Nintex have other approaches.

  • JMStudio Error  "Can not create session manager"

    Hi,
    I'm trying to transmit an mpg file through a simple pc to pc network, using the transmission wizard in the JMStudio, and everytime it causes a "can not create session manager" error, even when I try to transmit .mp3 file
    I'm using an ip like 100.100.0.1 for the sender machine, and 100.100.0.2 for the receiver machine, and I don't know where is the problem
    thanks in advance

    Um,maybe the port that you use for transmission is already occupied.
    Make sure that you are not using JMStudio to transmit streams while trying to receive streams from the same port.

  • HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    A couple of different approached:
    Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
    Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

  • How do I Create and Manage one library for several computers

    As our family has grown over the years, we have 4 kids and 6 macs and duplicate images scattered thought all the separate computers in their own libraries. Is there a way to create and manage one central library that all computers access? That way we can reduce the headaches when we need an image and have to go to each computer and search it's library. Not to mention when we need to jump on a computer and it doesn't happen to be the one we have our library on and need to download our pictures and they end up forever lost on a different computer.

    You cannot share a library over the network, since a library needs to be on a locally mounted volume, but you can put a shared library onto a "sneaker drive" and plug it into each of your mad in turn, see Apple's support document:
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users  http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201517
    iPhoto does not support to merge libraries. But iPhoto Library Manager can.
    You can download it here:   http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/

    how can i create and audio cd from a music track I have on my ipod

    This is how:
    Go to:
    'File'
    'Share'
    'Quicktime'
    'Expert Settings'
    'Audio as AIFF' or pick your brand of compression.
    Drag and drop the resulting file into iTunes.
    Enjoy!
    P.S. - You didn't need to delete the video but I think that'll be okay.

  • I Can't create and add en entry in Ldap using Java

    Hello there,
    I'm pretty new to LDAP programming, and I have been trying to create and add an entry to a directory using the code sample provided in the JNDI tutorial, but for some reasons, I didn't manage.
    the configuration file is well set up because I can't create, add, delete and modify just about anything I want from openLDAP command lines, but my real problem is to do it with java.
    here is my code:
    import java.util.Hashtable;
    import javax.naming.ldap.*;
    import javax.naming.directory.*;
    import javax.naming.*;
    import javax.net.ssl.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class Newuser
         public static void main (String[] args)
              //LDAPEntry myEntry = new LDAPEntry();
              Hashtable<String, String> env = new Hashtable<String, String>(11);
              String adminName = "CN=ldap_admin,o=JNDITutorial,dc=img,dc=org";
              String adminPassword = "xxxxxx";
              env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
              //set security credentials, note using simple cleartext authentication
              env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION,"simple");
              env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,adminName);
              env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS,adminPassword);
              //connect to my domain controller
              env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://localhost:389/o=JNDITutorial,dc=img,dc=org");
                   // Create the initial directory context
                   //JNDILDAPConnectionManager jndiManager = new JNDILDAPConnectionManagerImpl();
                  try{
                       DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);
                        System.out.println("Connection to LDAP server done" );
                       final String groupDN ="ou=people,o=JNDITutorial,dc=img,dc=org";
                      //DirContext dirCtx = jndiManager.getLDAPDirContext();
                      People people = new People("Thiru","Thiru","Thiru Ganesh","Ramalingam","ou=people","[email protected]");
                      // The Common name must be equal in Attributes common Name
                      ctx.bind("cn=Thiru," + groupDN, people);
                      System.out.println("** Entry added **");
                      //jndiManager.disConnectLDAPConnection(ctx);
                  }catch(NamingException exception){
                      System.out.println("**** Error ****");
                      exception.printStackTrace();
                      System.exit(0);
    }adn this is the class People that i want to instantiate
    import java.util.Hashtable;
    import javax.naming.Binding;
    import javax.naming.Context;
    import javax.naming.Name;
    import javax.naming.NameClassPair;
    import javax.naming.NameParser;
    import javax.naming.NamingEnumeration;
    import javax.naming.NamingException;
    import javax.naming.directory.*;
    public class People implements DirContext {
         public People(String uid,String cn,String givenname,String sn,String ou,String mail) {
        BasicAttributes myAttrs = new BasicAttributes(true);  //Basic Attributes
        Attribute objectClass = new BasicAttribute("objectclass"); //Adding Object Classes
        objectClass.add("inetOrgPerson");
        /*objectClass.add("organizationalPerson");
        objectClass.add("person");
        objectClass.add("top");*/
        Attribute ouSet = new BasicAttribute("ou");
        ouSet.add("people");
        ouSet.add(ou);
        myAttrs.put(objectClass);
        myAttrs.put(ouSet);
        myAttrs.put("cn",cn);
        myAttrs.put("sn",sn);
        myAttrs.put("mail",mail);
    }as I said, I can add the new entry using an LDIF file "new.txt" that looks like this:
    dn:cn=Hamido Saddo,ou=People,o=JNDITutorial,dc=img,dc=org
    cn:Hamido Saddo
    mail:[email protected]
    telephonenumber:3838393038703
    sn:hamido
    objectclass:top
    objectclass:person
    objectclass:organizationalPerson
    objectclass:inetOrgPersonusing the following command:
    ldapadd -D "cn=ldap_admin,o=JNDITutorial,dc=org,dc=img" -W -f new.txtand eveything works
    but when i try with the java, i get the following error:
    javax.naming.directory.SchemaViolationException: [LDAP: error code 65 - entry has no objectClass attribute]
    so, can anyone help me please !!!

    uncomment these lines
    /*objectClass.add("organizationalPerson");
    objectClass.add("person");
    objectClass.add("top");*/
    you need all of them to add successfully
    your LDIF has all the four lines
    objectclass:top
    objectclass:person
    objectclass:organizationalPerson
    objectclass:inetOrgPerson
    hope this helps
