Export itunes to memory stick - to be used in Ford Synch

I have two questions maybe somebody can answer either or both.
I am getting a Ford with MS Synch installed. I think plugging a ipod or into the usb port and leaving it is a $$ waste since I can control it using voice recognition and do not need to touch the ipod. Also I am concerned about the heat or cold affecting the device.
As an option I can use a USB memory stick with Synch
How can I export my Itunes library and playlists to a memory stick?
Has anybody tried this and access it from Synch? Are playlist and artist, genre etc preserved? Synch can recognize them. But will Itunes output all this info to the stick? Or will I just get a sequential list of songs? Would I have to sort itunes or any other special prep?
Thanks in advance.

i have the same problem.  i'm trying to upgrade my pm8pm-v motherboard to 2gb of ram.  right now i have 2 ultra pc2-4200 533mhz 512mb sticks in and they work fine but only give me 1g total ram.  i tried 2 sticks of 1gb crucial ddr2 pc2-6400 in each slot.  the motherboard would only recognize 512mb in each slot, no higher.  i thought it might be the crucial memory, so i returned that and purchased 1 stick of 1gb corsair xms2 pc2-6400.  the pdf file on msi's memory help page state that the corsair memory should work.  however, again, the memory slots on the motherboard would only recognize 512mb worth of ram in either slot.  for some reason, i cant get over 1gb of total ram off this motherboard.
any one have any ideas?  is there something in the bios that i need to change?  i've never had this much problem in upgrading memory before.  usually its just click it in and you are good to go.  this is very frustrating.
thanks.

  • Maintain keyword when export photo to memory stick

    When you assign a keyword to an image, is there a way to export the image such that the keyword (e.g. 'family') remains associated with it?
    In other words, the ideal would be that you could export to a memory stick and the keyword would "stick" to that picture so that you could take it to another computer and use iphoto (or some other program) to identify that picture by keyword rather than filename.

    Terence,
    Bad news. I went ahead and skipped 07 and upgraded to iPhoto8. It appears that either your advice was incorrect or this feature was broken in 08. Adding keywords within iPhoto08 does not actually change the EXIF metadata.
    I added keywords within iPhoto08 and exported the image to the desktop. I then used MacMetaShow and found that the exif data was not modified. I did some Googling and found a few complaints that this is still a problem. I suppose it is possible that MacMetaShow is not reading the data correctly so I will try to find a different program to verify this.
    Can anybody else corroborate this problem?

  • Export from itunes onto memory stick

    I have been trying to export my music in MP3 form from iTunes onto a memory stick for use in my car. I can't figure out how to do this. There is lots of information about transferring music to another Apple product, but not a memory stick. I'd appreciate any help.
    Message was edited by: moderator

    If the songs are not already in MP3, create MP3 versions using the document 1550 that Niel references.
    Insert the memory stick in your computer and open it so it looks like a folder. Then highlight the songs in iTunes and drag them to the folder. This will cause the songs to be copied to the memory stick.
    If you happen to be running iTunes in full screen mode, make it smaller so that you can see the folder and you will know what you are doing.

  • Downloading a playlist from iTunes to memory stick

    Is it possible to burn a playlist from your iTunes onto a memory stick?

    For iPhoto check out this thread:

    Especially Lori's screenshot halfway down
    In iDVD, use the Media Button (lower right) then click on the iTunes disclosure triangle - the wee arrow to the left of the iTunes name.

  • HT1751 exporting music to memory stick

    Im trying to copy selected albums to a memory stick,I cant see how too??

    You can use iTunes to do this.  Insert the memory stick into your computer and open it up as a folder.  Now go back to iTunes, highlight the tracks you want to copy, then drag them into the memory stick folder.
    If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.
    The drag-n-drop puts a copy of the song file(s) onto the stick, and does not change anything in your iTunes libarry.  Try it first with a single song file, so you can see how it works, and then do your full albums.

  • How to transfer itunes to another computer using a 2gb memory stick

    I would appreciate some help please
    Thanks in advance
    Sam

    Assuming all your music and files will fit on a 2GB memory stick, you could use the method below with a minor adjustent.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
    If the whole thing won't fit on the memory stick, as seems likely, it would be better to go for another method such as the iPod as in the link or an external HD.

  • How do I move a file from a memory stick to a an external drive using a mac (copy paste doesnt work)

    How do I move a file from one memory stick to another using mac pro? copy paste doesnt work

    Have you tried simply dragging the file from one stick to the other? Do you know the format of the memory sticks (Macs can't write to those formatted as NTFS without the use of third-party software)?

  • Support for Memory Sticks

    Does anyone know if there are plans to have iTunes support Memory Sticks as devices? It is a pain to drag files to the memory stick for use in my car. It would be great if iTunes would recognize the stick as a device so that I can build playlists in iTunes and put them on the stick.

    Apple has announced no such plans. iTunes is designed to sync Apple devices only.
    However, it is relatively easy to drag files from an iTunes playlist to an open folder representing the memory stick, which creates copies on the memory stick.

  • Usb memory sticks

    Hi I have several 2 GB usb memory sticks. I use them to carry Keynote/Powerpoint presentations to different venues as backup. Recently I have noticed when transferring files from my new iMac that I keep getting the message that the memory is full on the memory stick despite moving lots of old presentations to trash. I don't understand this as it works with my iBook and my work windows laptop. It's a mystery. Can anybody shed any light on this?
    Thanks Tim

    Hi there
    I am having problems with my memory stick and my SD cards out of my camera! I have an IMAC leopard and i have done what you and susan above has recommended i have deleted out of trash when device is in but it looks as if its working and then i go to put pictures back on the SD card for my digital frame and it says theres not enough room when there is sufficient room. Its also not burning discs that must be part of the problem as well.
    Can you help???

  • Problems with 10.4.9 and USB memory stick??

    Since I've updated to 10.4.9 I'm having nothing but grief when using my Memorex USB 1GB memory stick. I use it for backing up crucial files (e.g address book, etc.)
    Now, when I attempt to copy files to the memory stick, the system goes into an infinite loop (spinning beachball forever) -- even all night long, even though the files I'm transferring aren't very big. Some of my files copy, but some don't.
    This has happened three times now. The Finder is "not responding" and won't even let me do a relaunch -- I end up with a blank screen with a corrupted menu bar. The only thing that gets me going again is to Power OFF, twice!! After the first power off, pause, power on, I just get the Apple logo and spinning spokes. Soon the fan comes on full force in the CPU. Runs forever. So, power off again, pause, power on and this time the start up is OK, my desktop etc. all appear OK. (I remove the memory stick before powering on).
    On the latest attempt, I had to power off and on three times before things were OK.
    I erased the memory stick to start fresh, but still, the same problem -- and infinite Finder loop when attempting to copy files over. Lots of available space. Some files/folders copy. But when I simply try to open a folder on the stick, ....the infinite loop again.
    What's going on??!!________

    The repetitive powering off and on has resulted in a damaged drive directory and/or corrupted system files. Although you can try repairing the hard drive I suspect you will have to reinstall OS X.
    Try this first:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If this doesn't help (and I don't think it will) but the hard drive is repaired and OK, then you can reinstall OS X by doing an Archive and Install which does not erase the drive:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
    If the hard drive cannot be repaired then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • How can I save 350 photos to a memory stick randomly.

    I need the photos to be stored in the usb memory stick in a random order. They will be veiwed (by an old tv), in the order they are saved.

    When you export to the memory stick you're restricted to whatever the file system on the stick supports. There is no file system that supports "random". It will support sizing on size, name, type and so on. Random would be a feature of the TV playback feature.

  • Extending the ram with a usb flash memory stick

    I heard that it is possible to use a memory usb stick to extend the ram memory in the mac, it this true and how do I do this? I have a 4 gb flash stick and it would be great if I could just plug it in and have more ram!
    André

    Not possible. A USB memory stick can be used to park files and move them between computers, but that's about it. These devices also operate at a much, much slower speed than built-in memory, so even if this were possible, it would be painfully slow.

  • Can I save to memory sticks for read and write access?

    I use M.S. Office for Mac to do my admin. I would be very grateful if anyone can help with my queries.
    I want to save work to media that allows me read and write access. Saving to discs (of any type) does not allow any editing.
    1. If I save to a memory stick will I be able to save and update my work when I want to?
    Also;
    2. Would a memory stick have to be formatted with to be suitable for Mac?
    3.If the memory stick can be used for the purpose, I want to encrypt it; how would I do this please?
    4. Would encrypting place a limit on the capacity of the memory stick that can be used, e.g.  I have a choice, including 8Gb and 16Gb.
    5. I have heard that passwords can be created by Mac; what is the method for doing this please?
    Many thanks for in advance.

    There is terminology here I am unfamiliar with. I feel I have embarked upon a complex path.
    I do not know what HFS+ is.
    HFS+ is the Mac OS X file system.  Hierarchical File System Plus (Plus as it used to be HFS, but then they improved it and said +)
    By default a USB flash drive generally comes formatted with FAT (from the Microsoft MS-DOS days, but is a universal format - it might come with FAT32 or exFAT as well - still from Microsoft).  Mac OS X can read/write these, HOWEVER, its FileVault whole disk encryption is only designed to work with HFS+, which is why I mentioned it.
    Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility can be used to reformat a disk, USB Flash drive, etc...  NOTE:  reformatting does erase everything on a disk, so keep that in mind.
    What is the difference between File Vault and .dmg in disk utilities?
    FileVault is whole disk encryption.  Everything on the disk is encrypted. and you need to enter the password just to mount the device.
    A .dmg file is a regular file that happens to contain a file system inside of it.  When you double click on the .dmg file, Mac OS X will mount the file system inside as if it was a disk.  If the .dmg file is encrypted, then you will be prompted for the password before Mac OS X will mount it.  A .dmg is just a container for a file system.  Inside that contain is a full file system with files and directories just like any other file system.
    You can create read only .dmg files, you can create read/write, you can create sparse (you declare the maximum side, but the initial size of the .dmg is small and will grow to the maximum size as you add things to the .dmg, you can create encrypted .dmg.
    Since a .dmg is just a file with no special attributes on the outside, it can be copied around.  You can copy it over the network, you can store it in the cloud, you can put it on a USB Flash drive, you can put it on an external disk, etc...
    If the device you put it can be mounted by Mac OS X, then you can double-click on the .dmg and it will mount the file system inside the .dmg and you will be able to access the files in the .dmg
    This even includes USB Flash drives that use the FAT format family.  But you existing external disks can be used for that as well.
    If I used an external hard drive for the purpose I have in mind, would the  disk .dmg utility allow me to access folders and files for editing or should I approach the task in a different way?  I would still wish to encrypt.
    As I said above, the .dmg is a full file system where you can store files and folders inside a .dmg container file.  And you can encrypt the .dmg so it is secure.

  • How can I move an existing iTunes library from a Dell PC (which uses Windows Vista) to a MacBook Pro?  I have tried to copy the library from the PC onto a memory stick but cannot move from the stick onto the MacBook Pro.

    I have tried to copy my iTunes library from my old (2008) Dell PC to a 32 GB memory stick and then copy it from the stick to the iTunes library in the new MacBook Pro which I purchased recently from a reputable dealer which resells refurbished Macs, (lease returns, etc).  The dealer was Computer Trends store in Saskatoon.  They told me how to move my existing iTunes libary from the PC to the Mac but I cannot seem to achieve that objective.  The Mac does not seem to recognize the memory stick.  I thought the Mac would recognize that the memory stick held iTunes files and would then transfer them without prompting to its own iTunes libary.  It did not do so.  I have therefore tried to find the command sequence within iTunes (on the Mac) for moving the material from the memory stick to the iTunes library.  Cannot find those commands.  Does anybody know where to find such commands.  I have to say, I am really disappointed that such a simple function would prove to be beyond my capabilities.  I thought the Mac was supposed to be easier than a PC.  !!!  Oh well, I am hoping this forum will help !!!

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    So, you can see your whole iTunes folder on the memory stick after copying from the PC?
