I only want itunes to hold the lossless files which are in two different folders. How do I do that?

I have thousands of MP3 files which I no longer use and which are in my itunes library.
I want itunes (version 11) to have in it's library only the MS Lossless format and the ALAC lossless format which are in two different folders. How do I achieve this?

Delete the files you don't want, or cut & paste them to an alternate location if you want to archive them.
What MS Lossless format? .wav?
iTunes doesn't have any custom organization features, but you can change the location of the media folder and then selectively consolidate content to the new folder. This creates copies so you have to manually delete the originals. Alternatively I have a script called ConsolidateByMoving which does what it suggests. Thiis could be used to split the media into parallel subfolders within your existing media folder if you disable iTunes "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" option.

  • How to access the e-mails which are stored in different folders via Mac

    Hi guys, I am new to Mac. My problem is about the setting of Mac Mail.
    There are 8 folders with my hotmail account in order to automatically sort e-mail into folders. I only can get the e-mails of inbox folder via Mac Mail software. I am wondering how to access the other e-mails which are stored in other folders.
    Thanks a lot!

    I don't think that things have changed going from 10.5 Mail to 10.6 Mail in this regard (I need to log on to my laptop more often). So, assuming that my premise is correct, in the left hand column of the mail window, underneath your inbox, drafts, sent, trash, and junk mailboxes, there should be the descriptive name of your mail account, written in gray capital letters, with a gray triangle to the left of that name. If the gray triangle is pointing to the right, click on it so that it points downward. That will expand the account view of mailboxes on the server. You should be able to see all of the other folders.

  • I recently deleted many duplicate files. In the midst of it my Itunes songs are not in Itunes. They are in two different folders. One under 'Music' in my ID. And two under a MyMusic file in Documents. How do I know which one to import?

    Thanks, this is not an ideal answer but probably the most sensible one in my case.
    I will try it unless someone has a better suggestion, but I'll wait a bit as it will take me a few days anyway (I had actually tried to create a new smaller playlist or download by album, but at this stage the music app is not letting me queue a list of songs for download - I think I will have to disable and re-enable iTunes match which will probably delete all the songs).
    I have to say I am not very impressed with Apple here - having an online backup of all your data and beeing able to restore it to a new device easily was a strong selling point of iCloud. For music, they are Definitly not delivering at the stage.

  • How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    Hi flaviusjack,
    If you still have the .doc files, it might be best to send those to your recipients so they can be edited. Otherwise, you can use ExportPDF to convert the PDF files back to .doc format. But, again, that step would be unnecessary if you have the .doc files.
    Best,

  • ITUnes converted all the wav files on my computer to m4a. How do I recover them?

    iTunes took it upon itself to convert all of the .wav music files on my computer to .m4a, a much lower-quality format. How can I get the .wav files back?

    Hi someonefromminnesota,
    Depending on how the tracks were imported/converted, the original .wav files may still be located in their original location, and an .m4a copy may have been added to the iTunes Library. You may find the following article helpful:

  • My husband has a iphone, now i have one to. We want to work with the same calendar, but i want to play in the game center with my own name... how can i do that? and still use the same calendar

    My husband has a iphone 4 8Gb, now i have one to. We want to manage our calendar with icloud. We use the apple id that my husband made, but i want to play in the game center with my one name and games. How can i do that?

    Sounds like you encrypted your iPhone backup, & if so it's asking for the encrypted backup password. Do you have a company Exchange account on your phone?

  • I want to grab the application files which are deployed on the oracle 9i

    I want to know the physical path of a java application deployed on server.
    I am having the admin console access to the server. But i don't have the login to the physical box. I am pretty much sure this is the only application deployed on this server. I don't have any clue how it is deployed under a [b]war or ear format.
    I don't know any thing about the oracle application server. Can any body help me out under which path these j2ee applications will be deployed.
    "/u01/app/oracle/ias_app"
    Thanks
    Tara

    Hello Tara,
    Unless the deployment directories have been changed the default location for the application to be deployed is:
    $OH\j2ee\<OC4J_Name>\applications\<app_name>
    $OH\j2ee\<OC4J_Name>\application-deployments\<app_name>
    You can have limited access to the applications through the console via the Applications link.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to create the SWF file which was included surrogate pairs.

    I would like to make sure how to create the SWF file which are included surrogate pairs.
    The error of outside the scope of unicode occurred when I compiled(mxmlc) the as file which was set surrogate pairs to 'Unicoderange'.
    Ex, I set the '  '(UTF-16 is '20B9F') to 'Unicoderange'.
    However, I cannot add the surrogate pairs.
    The error of outside the scope of Unicode occurred when I compiled the AS file.
    The reason of error was that the Unicode(UTF-16) of surrogate pairs is invalid.
    Then, I read the following pages.
    These pages are written that unicode-range supported surrogate pairs.

    I've been able to create project jar files in Eclipse by selecting Export from the File menu, then choose Java - Jar file - and provide the required information, name, destination folder etc. But when I do this, I do not export other jars on the build path this way nor do I expect to do this. I am only concerned with creating a jar file of my own work. A jar file does not "contain" other jar files. If the jar file contains the main method, and requires other jars for it's execution, then you may wish to include a reference to required jars on the class path entry of the Manifest file of the jar file you create. I'm not sure how to create a Manifest file in eclipse though..

  • New iMac - only want iTunes & iPhoto

    My friend just got a brand new 27" iMac. She has a 2008 Mac Pro that she only wants iTunes (including her iPhone & iPad backups) and iPhoto from. Best way to do this?
    I'm thinking just transfer the two libraries to an external drive and then drag the content to the new iPhoto and iTunes.

    The option you have proposed is the best one you can do. Just copy both iTunes and iPhoto libraries to an external drive. Then, connect this external drive to her iMac and copy them to the folders where she wants to save them, and then, open iPhoto and iTunes holding the Option (Alt) key in order to select the library she wants to use with these applications.
    In the case of iTunes, you should follow these steps to transfer that library > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1751

  • I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos". How can I do that without losing some of the features

    I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos".  How can I do that without losing some of the features of those two?   I just want to add a feature.  Thanks

    Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores if you are running iOS6)>Apple ID. Tap your son's ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID and password.
    You shouldn't lose the music, but if you try to update any apps that you bought with the family ID, you will have to use that password that is linked with that ID in order to update.
    Avoid downloading past purchased content with the old ID if you can since you will associate the iPad with the old ID for 90 days and you will lock yourself out of your own, new ID for that period of time. Read more about associated devices in iTunes here.
