I have my itunes media stored on my external hard drive. On this external drive I have a folder called "TV shows". I previously cut and pasted itunes TV shows to this folder to free up some space. How do I incorporate this folder (TV shows) back into the itunes library?

assuming the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked in preferences > advanced, drag the folder into an open iTunes window while holding option (⌥).

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

I have a new iPod touch. It shows a picture of a USB plug going into the iTunes logo. Can't get it to do anything. What do I do?

IMovie '11: how to move edited clips back into the event library?

I made a green screen video that is supposed to be the foreground, and edited out the ums and ahs. Now I need to add a green screen background, which apparently I cannot do after already inserting the green screen foreground footage. (I would LOVE to be able to do that, but apparently you cannot.) I have tried to drag the edited videos back into the event library, but they bounce back out, and I have checked all of the menus twice and there is no command to export to event library. Help! I need to insert a background and don't have another hour to re-edit from scratch.

Hi
No - there are no easy and straight forward way to do this - BUT
You must do as one does in iMoivie when there is a need to combine several functions.
Export out (the manipulated clip) as a full quality QuickTime movie (just this part)
Then import this as a new Event
Put this into a new project (if several effects is to be applied) or into Main movie if You only need to apply one more thing as a GreenScreen.
For several effects - one might need to Export/Import several times. Much easier in FinalCut Pro.

Ipod Classic 160gb transfer data software? Do Apple provide any facilities to recapture all music etc from an ipod classic and save them back into the itunes library or even better onto a separate pc memory or external drive for backup purposes?

I now have around 3,000 songs on my ipod Classic and still adding. I didn't want to save them in itunes library so I deleted them from there once I had them on the ipod. I have since found out that the ipod music cannot be transferred back to the itunes library nor can I extract them from the ipod directly. Do apple provide such facilities or softwareto do this and, if not, is there any recommended and safe software to perform it? I see from Google that there are plenty of programs available but I want to be sure that what I use is safe, reliable and not breaking any of Apple's terms and conditions. Any advice would be welcome.

Hello Chris Jones,
I just found this and I'm trying to figure it out so your post is an excellent starting point, thank you! Since you posted this in Feb are there any things you would change or you found out after doing it? And how is everything running?
As a data point, I just added a SSD as the startup drive to an older mac pro (1,1) which is only used for Logic Pro and the speed now is amazing. Now I want to see if I can off-load the same things you have dealt with. Any additional insight will be greatly appreciated and thanks again for taking to time to document it.

I am trying to make a mix on Garage Band by dropping songs in the tracks from an ITunes playlist. I have done this many many times and suddenly I am unable to drop the tracks into Garage band. They swoosh right back into the iTunes playlist

Suddenly I am unable to transfer songs from iTunes to Garage Band. When I try to bring the songs over to Garage Band they will not drop into the track. They immediately go back into iTunes. I have made many mixes using GB and cannot figure out what has happened. Ive looked through system prefences, help window, etc. and cannot understand what has happened. Any advice?

either use the Media Browser in GB, or drop the actual song file into the timeline (cmnd-shift-r will reveal the file from iTunes):

How can I add manually-downloaded podcasts into the iTunes Podcase lists?

I see no way to "import" an existing podcast MP3 file into the Podcast screen so it shows up in an existing Podcast list. I need this because I have older podcast episodes which the downloaded subscriptions do not include anymore, but these old episodes really belong in the same podcast list as the newer ones.
This is a glarimg omission that makes the podcast screen inflexible and hard to use - plz help!
Thanks,

Why is my iPod showing a no sign when i drag music into the itunes library and how do i fix it

Do you have iTunes set up to sync manually? That is required to drag and drop
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Do you have any Restrictions set that would prevent syncing those songs? Settings>General>Restrictions

If I import a CD onto iTunes with tracks that have more than one person on (eg Rihanna ft Drake), it puts these tracks in a separate album. How do I get them all back into the same album?

It's done it with a load of cds, so then I can't even get the album artwork to work. Please help! It's starting to bug me haha

In iTunes select all songs you want in the same album, right click the selection, choose "get info", type the album name in the album field, click OK.

My screenshots have stopped going to my clipboard. How can I get my screenshots back into the clipboard?

I use Command (⌘)-Shift-4 to grab screenshots of diagrams to make flashcards with on a daily basis. But now my screenshots have stopped going to my clipboard - and they don't paste into my flashcards.
Dropbox popped up and asked me if I wanted to use it to save my screenshots and I said No Thanks, but then right after that my screenshot function stopped working. I can still save shots to my desktop, but I'd love to not clutter my desktop. The screenshots are not going to dropbox either, I checked.
Can someone tell me how to get my screenshots to go back to going into my clipboard?
Thanks!

Thanks Lanny! I actually typed in the wrong command into my question - I meant to type what you mentioned. But I did end up figuring it out: for some reason the shortcut to screenshot into my clipboard changed. I was able to restore all my shortcut commands back to default and it worked again!
Thanks!

IMovie text library only shows 1 font, previously it would access all the fonts on my MacBook Pro - how do I get them back into the iMovie library?

iMovie has lost contact with my font libraries. It only shows 1 font and I do not know how to re-connect it with the font libraries

Hello there ATCLTD,
I was think these troubleshooting steps will be the best for the issue you describe.
First I would perform a safeboot with this article named Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564.
To perform a Safe Boot, press and hold the Shift key immediately after your Mac starts up. Continue holding down the Shift key until a gray Apple logo appears on the screen.
And perhaps this article to troubleshoot duplicate fonts, which can cause all kinds of wonky activity.
Font Book 198: Resolve duplicate fonts

Take care,
Sterling
