Separating 1 library into 2 for 2 different pods

Is there a way to take 1 large i tunes library and separate it into 2 for 2 different pods that share 1 computer?

Do you have two iPods using the library of the same account?
In my opinion it would be easiest to set both iPods to 'Automatically update selected playlist only:' in Preferences>iPod.
You can create different (smart) playlists for both iPods and select different playlists for each iPod to synchronize.
Hope this helps.

Separating library into mp3 and lossless libraries?

I have imported most of my music into iTunes using lossless format, but have been making mp3 copies of some of my music to place on my ipod. This is not ideal, because, for example, when picking songs to play the genius function will often pick the mp3 version over the lossless version. I would like to separate out the lossless music I play at home and the mp3 music I sync to my ipod, and I think the best way to do that is to have separate iTunes music libraries (correct me if I'm wrong).
At first I thought I could simply duplicate my music folder, and use the find command to delete all of the mp3 files. But after reading Apple's instructions on how to use multiple ipods on one computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495?viewlocale=en_US), I think it might be better to simply have two libraries.
I don't quite understand how this works, but I think it means that I would have two libraries sharing the same iTunes Music folder, and I wouldn't have to remove the mp3 files in the finder.
But I still do not know a good way to do this, and would like suggestions. For my iPod library, I want a copy of my current library, but with all the lossless music deleted. I think this is not too hard; I could simply do a search for 'mpeg' and delete all of those songs.
For my home listening, I would like to find a way to delete the mp3 files that also have lossless files; if I only have a mp3 copy, I would like to keep that. I could do this manually by showing duplicates, but I have a lot of music and this would take forever.
Any suggestions would be appreciated,
Ric

OK - this is how you could do it. using Smart playlists.
But first, convert all the lossless tracks you want on your iPod to AAC (and perhaps use a bitrate that you don't have other tracks in? An unusual one, say 160 or 192).
Create a Smart Playlist with criterion Kind = AAC (if all your non-lossless tracks are MP3 as you say), or bitrate = 160 (192, or whatever), if you already have both AAC and MP3. OR if this will get too confusing, Date Added = (less than 2 weeks, say). You'll think of something that works for you, I'm sure.
Manually manage your iPod (not sync) and drag the contents of the Smart playlist to your iPod. Then delete the tracks from your Mac while keeping the playlist. In future, any tracks you convert for iPod will be in that playlist, from where you can drag them over to the iPod and then delete them off your Mac.
This sounds much more complicated to explain than it would be in practice.

How to build new basic key figures in library 4FM for different local curre

Hi Experts. I am working my reports with library 4FM. I need to create a new basic key figures in order to create a new report with severals currencies, like group currency or transaction currency.
Does anyone know how to do that ?
regards,
Ruth

Yes I did. they told me: "availability control only works with local currency. Transactional currencies are not supported in availability control (neither BCS nor Former Budgeting). The developer confirmed the information above. At this moment that thereare no plans to support transactional (non-local or non-FM area) currencies in BCS in a future release. I am really sorry, but I cannot provide you with a more positive answer,anyway, I propose you to refer to note 11. 11 Requested function is not in standard system. Note 11 will guide you to request the suggested changes, this is the correct channel and the chance to provide the requested functionality asstandard. Thank you very much for your understanding! "
I wrote them back and I said "we don´t need availability control in another currency, we only need that SAP add a key figures in FMAVCT table in order to have FM reports with different currencies"
Should I say another thing?
We are waiting for good news. will see.
Thanks a lot for you cooperation.

Split the i Tines library into 2?

Is it possible to split the i Tines library into 2 different libraries? If so how is this done?

What do you mean? One for music and one for movies, for example?
You could copy your current itunes database file to a new folder.
C:/.../username/itunes/iTunes Library.itl
Then do a shift-start of itunes to open it and delete whatever you don't want in it. Make sure NOT to send the files to the recycle bin, if you see that message.
Shift-start means press *AND HOLD* the shift key until you get a prompt to choose a library. itunes always uses the last library database, so you just shift-start to swap between the two.

Working on pages in 1 Library, but for several projects (different targets)

Hi guys,
I'm a designer in a developer-team, actually we give Flex, FlashBuilder and FlashCatalyst a big try.
Goal:
to make one application / service, with same Webservices and components,
for different mobile devices, as AIR-Application and for probably for websites too.
Problem (short):
When i work with FXPL (Library), i cannot work on the different user-interfaces for each device/AIR. I can only work on the components itself, but not on the full software-interface.
Problem (in detail):
As an FXP (Design and Code in same project) its easy to work on all User-Interfaces(States). But as we have different targets - such as iPad, Android-phones and AIR-Application - i need to work with a Library to keep all components in same version, without editing 3 or more projects with same changes.
So, how to work not just on the single components itself (example: a login-form) but also on the complete user-interface (with its headers, navigation, transitions and all this stuff) in Flash Catalyst (while working with a Library) ??
Example:
A complex interface got 3 new components, which are already build & designed. I, as the designer, want to place & align them and maybe working on details. But in Flash Catalyst i cannot get the full-view of the user-interface (for each device / target).
My idea for a work-around:
Instead of working with the primary states (which is not possible with the library) i create something like an over-all-component for each view. So i can work on the single components (like child-parts of the main-user-interface), i can align them and work on them with states too.
In this case i need to make all these components three times (for ipad, android-phones and AIR app),
so: i can work on any user-interface for every target in flash catalyst, instead of just working on the components!
but: at end of day i get alot of "components" which are just placeholders for states, views or component-groups.
- Is there any better workflow yet with librarys & different targets (working on all interfaces)?
- Didn't i see a critical point about my idea for a work-around ?
///// SoftwareDetails:
We work with FlashCatalyst CS 5.5 (1.5.0) and FlashBuilder 4.5 (4.5.1)

The basic idea is sound, however none of the components in Flash Catalyst are mobile friendly, nor is any of the skinning that it does. For that reason I would recommend not incorporating Flash Catalyst into any real mobile projects. It is fine to mock up a prototype, but nothing will deploy or run well on device.
I hope this mobile issue is addressed in a future version.

Is there any way for additions made by one user of a shared library to be visible to the other user of the same library, without having to always "add file to library"? This was the whole reason we consolidated the library into a public folder

My wife and I share a computer but have separate Windows ID's. We also each have an iTunes account, using two separate Apple ID's. We have always struggled with the headache of getting music that one of us added (via purchase, downloading CD, etc.) to the other person's music library. A friend suggested we consolidate and share the same library. Sounded like a good idea so we moved the libraries to a public folder, consolidated them, etc. But now when one of us adds music to the library, the other person still has to do an "add file/folder to library" in order for them to be able to see it. This is exactly the step we were hoping to eliminate by this consolidation. Does anyone know if there is a way to make this happen automatically, or will we have to continue to do this every time?
Also, ended up with a lot of duplicates in the process of consolidating. Is there any way to identify and "mass delete" these? It will take a while to go through them all individually as the library is somewhat substantial (approx. 16k songs)
Hardware is Windows 8, one iPod classic, one iPod Nano (obviously only selected playlists on this one). All hardware and iTunes running latest software.
Any information would be appreciated!

It sounds like you are using two independent libraries with a common media folder, whereas the plan would have been to ensure that both profiles were using the same library library database. Although you can place this within the Public folder I would normally create a shared library at the root of a drive, e.g. at X:\iTunes where X: is the drive that you want to use. See Make a split library portable for information on moving the library around back into a standard shape.
As for duplicates, Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See thisthread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

I let my students use my IPAD for different Apps. I was wondering if there was any way to lock my email app or sign into it before it opens. Suggestions?

There is no way to lock the built-in email app. You can remove the password from the Mail, Calendars, Contacts settings, but you'd have to readd and remove that every time, probably not very practical. There are third-party apps that have a login feature within the app, so one of those might work for you. Or you can just use a web interface to your email, if your provider offers that, though many web interfaces don't work very well with mobile web browsers.
Alternatively, if your students just use a single app at any given time, you can lock the iPad to that app via Guided Access:

fyi, this is my first Thread, sorry if I did not provide enough info.Whenever you have a problem, you should post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements), and the results you want from that data. Explain how you get those results from that data.
Simplify the problem if you can. For example, instead of posting enough data to get the last 6 jobs, how about just the last 3? You can explain that you really need 6, if you think it will matter.
If you can pose a question using commonly available tables, such as those in the scott schema, then you don't have to post any sample data, just the results and the explanation.
For example, say you're using the scott.emp table, which contains this data:
SELECT       deptno
,       hiredate
,       ename
FROM       scott.emp
ORDER BY deptno

        20 ADAMS      SCOTT      FORD

Here's one way to get those resuilts:

" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

Setesh, See if both computer has the same version of iTunes, if both are the same, then it is your PC, that has plug-ins which is in conflict it iTunes. ( normally it is the Antivirus or some plug-ins to beautify your screen)
If it is different, most likely the other PC has an older version of iTunes, so you should downgrade your iTunes to that older version, which your iPod interface well with.
Other probable causes,
you are using the USB 1.1 port at the front of your PC, and not the USB2,0 port at the back of your PC. so switch to the back.
Dont use any other USB devices, when you are syncing the iPod.
Dont use any USH Hub.
Have a nice day!

How do I import a large iPhoto library into an iMac running Yosemite without losing the existing division of the library into albums?which file do I look for on the older Mac, running Snow Leopard?

Import of library

You don't import one library into another. Simply copy the library from the older Mac to the Pictures folder on iMac. If you already have a library on the iMac rename it first.
Next launch iPhoto on the new iMac with the Option key held down and select the newly copied library.
If you have photos in the original library on the iMac you can merge that library into the larger, copied library with the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. Or if you also have Aperture 3.3 you can use it to merge the two libraries.

I would like the share an iTunes library between two different accounts on one Mac. How do I do this?

iTunes no longer works properly (aka at all) while using one of the user accounts set up on my iMac. It does, however, work when logging in under another user account on the same iMac. (if any of you can help me solve this issue that would be perfect). If there is no solution can anyone help with my request to share an iTunes library between two different accounts on one Mac. How do I do this?

You cannot tranfser items from one iTunes account to another. Purchased items remain part of the iTunes account is was purchased with.
iTunes account - used to purchase items
iTunes library - where purchases (and CD RIPs) go on the computer

There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
Just to summarise what's in the link above:
Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries.
Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. If you've had no success with this you can have a look through the guide on this page: Loading songs onto iPod automatically
Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
You can read about Windows user accounts here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

Re: Running the same (Forte) application multiple times -for different

Hi
We had the same problem - how to deploy a number of identical applications, using each their own db.
(for training).
The solution we used is to wrap the entire application into different applications by using a very small
module called KURSUS01, KURSUS02 etc, that did nothing but call the start procedure of the main app.
Then in the dbsession connect, we made a call appname to get the application name, and appended the
first 8 chars to the dbname. Thus our dbnames now points to logicals name: rdbdataKURSUS01, rdbdataKURSUS02 etc.
All this allows us to deploy the identical apps in the same env, or change one version, and run both the old
and new program on the same pc and server at the same time (eg. KURSUS01 and KURSUS02).
I also think this is a kludge - but it works nicely!

Subject: Running the same (Forte) application multiple times - for different business clients.
Hi All
We have a number of different business clients all willing to use our
application.
The (forte) application is to run on our machines etc for these (business)
clients.
All (business) clients will have their data kept in separate Oracle DBs
(instance).
The problem now is that the entire (forte) application is written using
DBSessions.
Now, depending on what business client needs to be serviced (so to speak) we
need to attach to the right DB - or use the "right" SO.
The two options we can think of are:
Option1:
Programatic change to somehow "know" what (business) client (DB) I'm talking
about and then use the right DB.
Pro:
Only one forte environment to maintain
Can run multiple (business) clients on same PC at the same time
Con:
Requires many program changes
bending O-O rules(?)
can't dynamically name SOs so can it be done at all? (ResourceMGRs maybe?)
Option2:
Use separate environments! One for each business client.
Pro:
More defined separation of app and data,
SLA-easy
Con:
Maintain "n" number of environments
Can only run the application for one environment (business client) at a time
on one PC - Big Negative here!
Not knowing any feasible solution to option 1 (without much code changes and
developer moaning) I would go for option two; as I have already worked on
multi-environment setups on VMS back at the Hydro (hi guys).
I would appreciate any comments from anyone who has solved this problem.

Move the iBooks library to external/different hard drive?

Hi! Is it possible to move the iBooks library from its default location on the boot drive (where the iBooks-application also resides) to a different hard drive?
Currently all my ebooks and PDF’s are kept in the default „Books“-folder in the home-library on the SSD-boot-drive of my Mac where the iBooks application is also kept by default (path: Users/„username“/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBo oks/Books). Space is getting narrow on my SSD-boot-drive so that I would like to free up approximately 20 GB by moving the entire iBooks library to a second internal HDD-drive of my Mac or to an external USB-drive.
I have not been able to find any instructions on the internet on how to move the iBooks library nor have I been successful in any of my experiments to move the „Books“-folder. What I have tried is the following:
1. I moved the original PDF-files away out of the „Books“-folder to a different drive and placed aliases from these files in the „Books“-folder. The result is that the iBooks-application will simply re-create a full size copy of the original PDF file in the „Books“-folder. I.e. no saving of disk space!
2. I copied the „Books“-folder from its default location in the user library on my internal SSD-boot-drive to a second internal HDD-drive, erased the „Books“-folder at the original location and instead placed a hard link at the original location. I verified that the hard link is working and pointing to the right location on the second drive. The result is that the iBooks-application will not recognize/show any of the PDF-files at the new location. Trying to re-import the missing PDF-files into iBooks results in the message „This book is already in your library. Do you want to replace it with the one you’re adding?“. By clicking on „Yes“ the same message returns infinitely often. I.e. no successes!
3. I repeated the same procedure as described above under 2. using the „iBooks“-folder which encloses the „Books“-folder (along with three other folders) with the same results as before. I.e. no successes!
(path: Users/„username“/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks)
Does anyone know how to successfully move the iBooks library to external/different hard drive?
Does anyone have links to internet discussions about this problem?
Regards BJB

I was in on the Mavericks beta, when iBooks was introduced. You can not believe me if you want but it isn't currently possible to store the iBooks library on external storage at this time. The ebooks must be on the path ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books for iBooks to function properly. Any other method you may find to accomplish what you want will be unapproved and could break at any time.
