How do you tick (check) or untick (uncheck) multiple songs?

Hi I'm having trouble checking & unchecking songs in my itunes music folder. I have managed to uncheck all 2000 odd songs but can't find a way of checking them all again without doing them one at a time which is slow & boring! Can anyone help??

On my PC, in I-Tunes,  to erase CHECKS on songs,  I found that by holding down CONTROL, clicking on the top song of a list, then clicking on the last song in the list I wanted to erase, then clicking would remove just those.
The changes also appeared in the PLAYLISTS as well. In the playlist, I found I could do the same and either erase or recheck by using CONTROL.  But NOT under the general list, I could ONLY ERASE. Tip -- be ready to used the UNDO button under EDIT.
Having good, varied playlists are the most usual thing in I-Tunes. I uncheck all 2000+  songs, then Check the songs I want to SYNC with in the playlists.  Only those songs checked either in playlists or those still checked under MUSIC will then go to the IPOD, and all those already on the IPOD will vanish, still on I-tunes waiting. (PODCASTS are not affected.)

  • How do you dynamically check if all member children are missing?

    Hi All,
    How do you dynamically check if all member children are missing?
    e.g. the below line does not work because you cannot directly use member sets in an IF statement.
    IF ((@CHILDREN ("Profit")==#MISSING))
    If I explicitly list all children in the IF statement, it will work, but there is alot of hardcoding.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi All,
    We have a BSO app and we need to query the account without aggregating the data..
    We have 4 accounts sitting under Profit:
    Profit
         A001
         A002
         A003
         A004
    @SUM (@DESCENDANTS ("Profit")) works fine, but we also need to sum the accounts for the parent member of the current business that is evaluated, I have tried @SUM (@DESCENDANTS ("Profit")->@PARENT ("Business")) but this does not work.
    This however works...
    @SUM(
    @PARENTVAL("Business","A001"),
    @PARENTVAL("Business","A002"),
    @PARENTVAL("Business","A003"),
    @PARENTVAL("Business","A004"))
    Is there a dynamic method to add the parent values together?
    Cheers,

  • How do you apply a master page to multiple documents at the same time?

    How do you apply a master page to multiple documents at the same time?

    Hi friends,
    Thank you for trying to help me out.
    Let me explain it a bit to remove the ambiguity.
    I have 10 documents nested under a book. Each of these documents have 'n' number of pages. I want to apply my custom made master page "First" to the first page of all these 10 documents in one go. The remaining pages of the documents have to be in default "Right" master page format. How will I do it?
    I tried selecting all the documents and importing the formats from another document with the custom made "First" master page. The master page format is getting imported but the first page of all the documents still remain with the default "Right" master page format.
    I think now my question is more clear...

    how do you change your security question to buy songs?

    If you mean that you've forgotten them, then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Can you check/uncheck multiple songs in iTunes for syncing to iPod?

    In a previous reply to this question, the answer given was that you can use Command apple key to uncheck or check groups of iTunes songs for syncing.
    Actually this does not work.
    Apple Commmand only gives you the possibility to check or uncheck the ENTIRE list of iTunes.. unless I am completely mad.
    There must be a way to select say 5 songs from an album and check/uncheck them all at the same time. So that you can make a fresh selection of songs each time you sync to an iPhone or iPod
    I simply cannot believe that iTunes is so dumb that this option is not available...
    ie what one needs to be able to do is highlight x number of songs at a time and then check or uncheck them as you go through the iTunes list to make a fresh syncing selection
    I hope this can be answered
    best

    Once you have all of the selected items, RIGHT CLICK (or alt click whatever) one of those highlighted items and select either CHECK or UNCHECK SELECTION.
    This is EXACTLY the point at which I get stuck - what is the actual key command for Right Click - it is not Alt Click or any combination, and looking for his in the iTunes help does not yield a result.
    Please give me that actual key stroke combination to effect this last operation: I have always been able to select multiple tracks in the way you describe with Shift - but how to actually CHECK and UNCHECK a selection.. once the tracks are selected
    Would much appreciate the answer to this

  • How do you spell check a field?

    How are people spell checking their fields?
    In searching around, I have only found (a) suggestions to yank the text into MS Word, do a spell check, then yank the resulting text into the field; (b) software from DC AL CODA that we aren't clear how they actually work (http://www.dcalcoda.com).
    Specifically, my manager wants a tool that'll interface with Oracle like this: give a table name and a field name and be asked about each spelling error, much like an email spell check. The tool would change things as you ask, directly in the database. You wouldn't have to cut and paste into it and back to the db fields.
    We aren't using forms. We use SQL*Plus, Quest Software's TOAD, and our own Java servlets (using JDBC to enter SQL statements).
    I would love to hear how people do their spell checking.
    Hopefully this is an appropriate forum for this question. There doesn't seem to be a general or SQL forum. Our database tables include a fair amount of text that shows up on Web pages. These are the fields we want to spell check.

    I thought I'd reply to my own question since I found a workable solution, at least for our office which has MS Windows.
    MS Access can connect directly to an Oracle data source. Access has a spell checking feature where you can select a field and spell check it. Below are tips and instructions for doing this.
    TIPS:
    It's surely a good idea to back up tables and be the only person or process changing those tables during the spell check.
    One thing to watch for is whether the entire table comes in. At the bottom of the screen is a >* button which seems to get all fields. For large tables, you have to hit this button before you get the entire table.
    Another glitch is that all of the given database user's tables show up in one list box -- makes for some painful scrolling, but all of the tables are listed.
    A much smaller glitch is that if you widened any of the fields in the view of the table, when you close the window, it asks if you want to save the formatting. It has nothing to do with saving the data (that is automatic). It's safe to say no.
    The spell check doesn't recognize HTML tags (asks about "br"s from <br> tags) but seems to know to ignore things like &quot;
    How to set up an ODBC Data Source in Windows:
    1. MS Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> ODBC Data Sources (32 bit)
    2. Drivers tab, scroll down and select Oracle ODBC Driver
    3. OK
    4. User DSN tab, Add...
    5. Select Oracle ODBC Driver and Finish
    6. Make up a data source name (example: src)
    7. Enter a description for it
    8. For Service name, put what your service name is (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'svc')
    9. For UserID, put your user id (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'usr')
    10. Ignore the rest of the fields, click OK
    11. Another OK.
    How to use Access to Spell Check an ODBC Data Source Field:
    0. Install Access from (MS Office 2000).
    1. Start Access (by the way, you might find it way down the list in Start -> Programs).
    2. Open file, in the file type box, scroll to the end: ODBC Databases. You'll get a dialog.
    3. Machine Data Source tab, select the name you gave it (src in step 6 above)
    4. You'll be prompted for the password (for an SQL*Plus connection, 'usr/passwd@svc', this is 'passwd')
    5. Select from the huge list of every table the table you want. Ok.
    5.a. If the table has no key, you'll be prompted for the unique key from a list of all fields.
    6. Double click the item that has just been added to the dialog that remains on the screen. It'll have a globe next to text like USR_TABLENAME. This brings up a randomly sized first chunk of the table.
    7. To make sure you get the entire table, on the paging buttons on the bottom (|< < > >| >*), click >*. It may take a few moments to get a huge table.
    8. Click the heading of the field (column) you want to spell check). This selects the entire column.
    9. Hit spell check (ABC checkmark tool or Tools -> Spelling)
    10. Check away. The changes are made immediately to the database.
    11. Close the table display window.

  • How can you get the car stereo to play songs on nano in order?

    Hi--I just got an ipod nano and connect it to my car stereo via a usb port.  No matter what controls I try (on the car) it just plays songs in alphabetical order of the song (regardless of the album title).  How can I get it to play in the order I want (like one album at a time)?

    Mine does. If you can browse by artist, album or song titles, chances are it can brwose through playlists as well. Also make sure that you don't have shuffle selected.
    The iPod should play songs in the order that they are listed on the display.
