Adding Folder Subtyp

Is there any way to add a folder subtype to the ones already available (ie, other than album, artist and genre..)? I have a large classical music collection, and it would be very convenient to be able to add a new characteristic (such as composer) to my music for organization/playback purposes since, right now, I have to choose either the composer or the artist in one category.
Thanks

I don't know if you have found your answer yet. Just joined and thought I'd reply. I also have a large classical music collection and have spent much time ripping and transferring. The folders you are referring to are called, in MP3 terms, tags. These are the same as fields in a database. There are already tags for composer, lyrics, performers, etc, however, the firmware (operating system) of our MP3 players doesn't allow us to take advantage of these tags. Since the artist and album tags are probably sufficient for most people's needs, the required changes probably won't happen anytime soon. It would require the whole classical music community, and everyone else interested in being able to sort/find by more characteristics, to convince Creative to update the firmware and Creative MediaSource to take advantage of these tags. Go to http://www.id3.org to find out just what is possible in MP3 tags.

Why does the music i want to add end up i "not added folder"

Can anyone help me ? i've been trying to add some music files to my iPod 32gb 3rd Gen running i05 I'm on my home PC running windows xp home all up to date
ive converted the files to AAC when I try to send them to iPod i put the music in "auto add to I tunes" folder it fails to send and ends up "not added folder"
i must have tried this a dozen times ive also tried restarting iTunes.
any help would be great
thanks for in advance
Neil

Perhaps the program that you've used to convert to AAC hasn't done a very good job. The "Not Added" folder is where iTunes moves things that it cannot recognise as being valid files of the types that it can manage.

Added folder..files out of order

Adding folder with all files correctly sorted by name, results in out of order sort into itunes library...shuffle is OFF, and most folders import OK.
Order is important as these are audiobook files.The listing can start with "Lecture 9" and then list in no logical order. As there are up to 200 files,manual rearanging is not on.

I had the exact same problem with audiobook tracks that did not have disk number tags (which you can see on iTunes). The files under Windows are not in the order they appear in Explorer - the display is sorted by file name (or whatever order you chose) but this does not reflect their physical order. Same with iTunes. You can sort the display, but if you did not have the disk number (and track number), then you will not get the book tracks in the right order. If you look at the actual iTunes files where they are stored, you will see that the file names are preceded by a number (such as "02 filename.m4a") and the number preceding it, I think, is iTune's best guess as to its disk number and it names the files as it imports them.
If your track files do not have a disk number and/or track number, you can get the trial version of a software called Tag and Rename by Softpointer Inc. (google it) and it will allow you to insert this information. You will then have to delete the old version from iTunes, reimport it, and then copy it back onto iPod.
By they way, if you ripped your audiobooks using a bitrate that is too low (not unusual for audiobooks), then you might have problems when you pause or turn off during playback and then come back later. You may have to reset your ipod in order for it to turn on. I think the lower bitrate causes the iPod to lose its cookies when trying to save the resume point and crash. So, try to rip using a bitrate that is higher than say 50.
Good luck. I've had many hours of fun trying to figure out how audiobooks work on iPods.

How you make recend uploads appear in the recently added folder

When adding to itunes library, how do you make the selections appear in the recently added folder. The folder was deleted but rebuilt.

It is a mixed playlist and finally I came up with an answer; it might sound strange but I woke up from a nap with all correct settings figured out.
This is what I did:
I had to specify a subset for every podcast or I would end up with every episode available on my library which in turn would reach the limit I set but that's OK. I noticed though, that podcast won't sync to iTunes Match, which is a bummer, but still they sync over Wi-Fi. This is what I got finally:
Thanks for all your help!

How to read and set Pane value for new adding folder

Hi Experts,
I tried to add a new folder in to a system form as below
Itm = form.Items.Add("UserFolder"), SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_FOLDER)
form.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("F_new", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_SHORT_TEXT, 1)
Dim oFolder As SAPbouiCOM.Folder
oFolder.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "F_new")
oFolder.GroupWith("138")
My quester is what is the panelevel for this new folder? And how to set value to panelevel for this folder.
If we design a folder from Screen Painter, we can set the pane value manually, can we do this from code?
Thanks a lot
Tim

Hello,
You do not have to set any panelevel for your folder, if you would like to display it all the panelevels. (Let's see an example on Item Master data form).
Sales, Purchase, Inventory etc tabs (folders) are always visible, there is no panelevel set for them.
To change between panelevels, you can trigger et item pressed event, and before_action = false, then you may change the panelevel of the form poperly.
For initially you may use the Folder.Select() command to show the default panelevel
>The problem is here, it looks like oFrom.Panelevel property can only accept integer value, so how can I know what's the pane level number for my folder?
Do not set panelevel for your folders, you should drive your form's panelevel based on a selection tree:
To see clear, please check the following code in the help sample: CompexForm
C:Program FilesSAPMásolat - SAP Business One SDKSamplesCOM UIVB.NET07.ComplexForm2003
to make it clear:
        '// Adding Folder items
        For i = 1 To 2
            oItem = oForm.Items.Add("Folder" & i, SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_FOLDER)
            oItem.Left = (i - 1) * 100
            oItem.Width = 100
            oItem.Top = 6
            oItem.Height = 19
            oFolder = oItem.Specific
            '// set the caption
            oFolder.Caption = "Folder" & i
            oFolder.DataBind.SetBound(True, "", "FolderDS")
            If i = 1 Then
                oFolder.Select()
            Else
                oFolder.GroupWith(("Folder" & i - 1))
            End If
        Next i
This code add 2 folders to the form: and the first (i = 1) is selected.
IN itemevent, the panelevel property of the form is depending from the item you have clicked:
Case SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_ITEM_PRESSED
                    '// Check if the event was raised by one of the Folder items
                    '// and change the form's pane level
                    If pVal.ItemUID = "Folder1" Then
                        oForm.PaneLevel = 1
                    End If
                    If pVal.ItemUID = "Folder2" Then
                        oForm.PaneLevel = 2
                    End If

I cannot access the recently added folder in Instagram on my iPad. Any ideas why?

when trying to access photos on my iPad in Instagram I can access my shared photo streams but not the recently added folder and the photos taken on my iPhone. Any ideas?

Hello wintergreenchip,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below can help get your Photo Stream working correctly.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they're older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so your devices might not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream. Due to storage limitations, your Apple TV might display only your most recent photos.
If you want to have the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices and delete the older photos:
If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (or Photo Stream in iOS 6).
Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
Repeat these steps for each device.

How do I add "recently added" folder back to my itunes?

How do I add "recently added" folder back to my itunes on my Mac book Pro?

Hi.
"Recently Added" is just a Smart Playlist. You can recreate it by clicking File from the menubar, then New Smart Playlist. Mine is still set to the iTunes default condiitons which are to match all of the rules, Date Added in the last 2 weeks, Media Kind is not a Podcast, and Live Updating, but you can play with rules however you'd like.
Good Luck

Podcasts don't appear in Recently Added folder after upgrade to itunes7.7

I just upgraded to itunes version 7.7. With this new upgrade my "Recently Added" folder in itunes no longer shows podcasts, it only shows songs. I have tried looking for a setting that will let me add Podcasts to this folder but I can't. Is anyone else having this problem? Prior to this latest upgrade Podcasts have always showed up in my Recently Added folder.

I, too, would like this fixed, but let me offer this workaround I discovered:
1. Create a regular Playlist for each podcast you subscribe to
2. Go to the Podcasts section of iTunes
3. Right-click on a podcast you subscribe to
4. From the menu, select "Add to playlist"
5. Left-click on the playlist that corresponds to the podcast you've chosen
6. Repeat for every podcast
After doing this, my podcast episodes go right into the playlists where I want them. They still don't show in Recently Added, which annoys me, but at least I know where they are. Even better, once I did the steps above, the podcast episodes that had downloaded since I "upgraded" iTunes now all appeare in their appropriate Playlists.

How do i get my recently added folder onto my iPhone?

my recently added folder and most listened to folders wont show up on my iPhone, why?

Hey man!
Basically those playlists were just 'Smart Playlists' created by iTunes.
To re-create them, click File > New Smartlist. Then select 'Date Added', 'in the last', '2' and 'weeks. Live updating should be checked!
Then name the playlist 'Recently Added'
Hope it helps!
