Where can I find a detailed tutorial on how to use iTunes for Mac?

I need to get a really good tutorial on iTunes for Mac 12.0.1.26.
I am really hung up on being able to download artwork for 2 Albums that I have recently purchased. I have been using Macs since the 128K Classic. However I never got into using iTunes until just now with version 12.0.1.
Any help appreciated.

Right click where??

Wma conversion to use iTunes for Mac

Does anyone know of freeware I can download to comletely convert my wma music files to mp3 so that I can use it in iTunes for mac? ( Switched from PC to mac, now i'm just struggling with my wma files i transferred from my PC - tried the new Windows Media Player 11 on my PC, but it only converts if the Device it syncs with requires it, you cannot set it to convert all files to mp3...) So far i'm really really impressed with the Mac, but the fact that i have to now convert all my music files that are still wma to mp3 to use in iTunes is QUITE annoying...

Macs don't have the WMA codec used to read these files.
EasyWMA is only $10.
Or just use your Windows machine.
Open iTunes, set your iTunes prefs -> Advanced -> Importing to what you want and drag your WMA files to iTunes.
It will convert them (using the WMA codec in Windows) and put them in the iTunes folder.
Copy these files to the new computer and Add to iTunes.

Please help, need to use stems for final audio output

Hi, hoping somebody can help. Finished a editing a feature due tomorrow and the sound designer gave me a final stereo mix that's a half hour too short. But he also gave me the "stems" and said I could adjust them as if I knew anything about audio.
Here's the question, I have DX, FX, MX, ME and VO files. Don't know which are redundant. Can output myself if I know which ones to use. Please, if you know, share?
Thanks!

Wow, if he knew anything about audio he would have given you the proper mix.
Try just putting each of those in separate tracks.
Make sure the line up by playing the master and listening for an echo. Then just start turning off the tracks until you get what you need. It certainly looks like some will have some internal redundancy. I don't understand all his terminology, but it's apparent that he has mixes that split out the voice tracks so you can drop in foreign language voices later. So the ME and VO sets will duplicate what's found in some of the others.

Help needed in using POI for manipulating Word files

Hi ,
I am new to POI. I have to take multiple files as input and write them to an output word file using POI.The input files may be word files, jpg or or any other image files and excel sheets also.
Is this possible using POI?Is there any example source code available?
I had another concern .I have downloaded the poi-bin-2.5.1-final-20040804 jar.
This does not contain any api for hwpf.Where can i find hwpf api?

HWPF is not included in the standard jar that you will download from the Apache Organisations site. Instead, you need to visit what they tern the scratchpad area - from where the developers grab source to work on - and download HWPF from there. You will have to compile it yourself as well I believe. There is some good news however, I cannot remember the address of the site but I did find a web page with links to pre-built jar's of this area, just have a search with google.
From my own experiences, I would also reccommend that you look to using JExcel to manipulate Excel worksheets. It does not have the same sort of support for evaluating formulae as HSSF does but it does other things better IMO; little things like exposing the formatting applied to the cell.

Help needed in using oracle rules SDK

Hi,
For testing my rulesets using oracle rules SDK I doing the following:
1. Creation of dictionary, ruleSet.
2. Declared two kinds of globalVariable variables in my datamodel :
Final and non-Final.(Type of these varaibles are String and Double only)
3. Final globalVaraibles are used in creating rule's patterns.
4. Non-Final globalVariables are used in creating rule's action.
5. Functions are created for asserting globalVariables values and
returning non-final varaibles, since those are required as action
results.
6. In java code I am testing my ruleset (dict.testRuleSet()). Before
testing i am populating my final global variables (since these are used
in rule's patterns),
and updating datamodel.
The above procedure is working fine and I rules are successfully working.
Now, first of all i want to know if the above mentioned approach is correct or it needs to be reframed??
secondly, when i update datamodel with values (in java code itself) it
takes 4-5 seconds in updating it. This is the main issue that why it is
taking this much time??
any comment would be of great help.
Thanks in advance.

Help needed in using JMX APIs

Hi
My requirement is to retrieve the JNDI Names of the JMSConnectionFactory and the JMSQueue using the Connection factory or Queue name. In short im trying out a feasibility of reading the JNDI values for queues from weblogic config.xml instead of reading them from a properties file.
I developed a sample code using JMX APIs that will fetch the JNDI names of all the JMS destinations available for a particluar JMSServer.
But is there any way to retrieve the JNDI names based on the queue names .. in general i will give queue name as input and i want the queue's JNDI name as output.
My sample code is :
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Set;
import javax.management.ObjectName;
import javax.management.QueryExp;
import javax.management.Attribute;
import javax.naming.Context;
import weblogic.jndi.Environment;
import weblogic.management.MBeanHome;
import weblogic.management.RemoteMBeanServer;
import weblogic.management.WebLogicObjectName;
import weblogic.management.configuration.JMSQueueMBean;
import weblogic.management.configuration.JMSServerMBean;
import weblogic.management.configuration.JMSConnectionFactoryMBean;
import weblogic.management.configuration.JMSDestinationMBean;
import weblogic.management.runtime.JMSServerRuntimeMBean;
import weblogic.management.configuration.JMSDestinationMBean;
public class JMSAddQueue {// The name of the WebLogic domain, please change this to match the //// name of your installation specific domain name
private static String weblogicDomain = "conciergetestdomain";// The name of the WebLogic server, please change this to match the //// name of your installation specific server name
public static void main(String[] args) {
     try
          Environment env = new Environment();
          env.setProviderUrl("t3://localhost:7001");
          env.setSecurityPrincipal("system");
          env.setSecurityCredentials("weblogic");
          Context ctx = env.getInitialContext();
          MBeanHome home = (MBeanHome) ctx.lookup(MBeanHome.ADMIN_JNDI_NAME);
          ctx.close();
JMSServerMBean cf = (JMSServerMBean)home.findOrCreateAdminMBean("TESTSERVER","JMSServer", weblogicDomain);
JMSDestinationMBean[] jdb = cf.getDestinations();
System.out.println("** The JNDI name is : "+jdb[0].getJNDIName());
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}Is there any way to retrieve the JNDI names using the queue names ?
Thanks

Transferring iTunes for Mac to iTunes for Windows

My son currently uses iTunes for Mac to store all his music he for his iPhone. His iTunes is on a PowerBook G4, running OS X 10.4.11, which he now finds can not be upgraded to Leopard or Snow Leopard which would give him the latest version of iTunes. He is now thinking of purchasing a PC laptop that will run the latest version of iTunes. BUT, all of his music is on his Mac PowerBook. Is there way to transfer his music on iTunes for Mac to iTunes for Windows?

Chris,
Thank you for responding. I only went by what my son said. I will check out Leopard's system requirements. Do you know if music stored on iTunes for Mac can be transferred to iTunes for Windows. If so,what I do to transfer the music?

HT1338 for itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updtes and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

For itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updates and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

I think you meant 10.6.8, not 10.8.6
It requires an upgrade, instead of a free update.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

How do I transfer my music from my mac mini running mountain lion to iPad 2. I have ICloud running, why are they not automatically pushed to the ipad2? Do I need to use ITunes? If so, how do I do it without deleting everything on the IPad2?

I have a new MacMini onto which I have installed music files. I want to transfer them to my IPad2 . I have ICloud working properly, or so I thought, so why are these files not appearing on my Ipad2? Do I need to use ITunes? If so, how do I sync without erasing what is already on the IPad? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is the procedure for syncing music to the iPad.
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Music Tab on the right.
Click on all of the albums or playlists that you want to sync - or the entire library if you like.
Click on the Sync Music Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
iCloud does not transfer the music on the Mac to the iPad unless you download it again on the iPad. iTunes Match may be what you are thinking of and you have to subscribe to that feature for a fee.
You have to sync the music that is already in your iTunes library to the iPad using iTunes. You can turn on Automatic Downloads on both devices for music and when you download music on one device it will download to the other device.
I get the feeling that you have never synced the iPad with iTunes before but you already have content on the iOad and are getting a message that the iPad will be erased if you sync with iTunes. If that is true, you need to transfer all iPad content into iTunes before you sync. This will help you with that.

Actually, you can and have downloaded from there, because that message only happens when the download is finished.
The message is entirely normal, and is Apple's way of encouraging the world to use the Mac App Store. That doesn't help you because Acrobat isn't in the Mac App Store - it isn't allowed there.
So, what to do? Change your system settings
