Adding multiple songs

I want to burn an iPhoto slideshow and use 4 songs. It seems that iDVD will only one song. Is there a workaround?

Good suggestion... Other options include bringing your still photos into iMovie and adding your songs there (can make nice fadeouts/ins). iDVD can do slideshows with 99 pictures or less. If you have an audio editing program, you can copy/paste your songs together, and import the "new" song into iTunes (so you fool iTunes into thinking it's only one song).
If you have Quicktime Pro ($30), you can Export/Share your iPhoto slideshow as a Quicktime movie, then use Quicktime to open each song you want to use, copy it, and Add to the iPhoto/Quicktime slideshow. Repeat this step until all the slideshow has audio. Roxio Toast ($80) also includes a nice slideshow function.

[All Platforms][Playlists] Adding multiple songs to 1 or more playlists...

Being able to select multiple songs at a time and then able to add them to a desired playlist/s after that would save an enormous amount of time..especially after saving over 100 songs before sorting them out.

Adding multiple songs to iTunes from the Finder

The way I usually add songs to iTunes is to select multiple songs at once from the Finder and then add them all to iTunes. Now in Lion when I have two or more items selected it only adds and opens one of them instead of copying all of them to the iTunes folder. How do I add them all from the Finder into iTunes to save me some time.
Also the default file opener for .m4a, .mp3 etc. was changed to Audacity for no reason when I upgraded to Lion. I had to manually change it back to iTunes.

Can you do it the other way?
Open iTunes and on the File menu is Add to Library where you can choose which ones to import.

Adding multiple songs to a slideshow in Iphoto......

I know how to add a song to a picture slide show in iPhoto. But how do I add lets say several songs to one big slide show? I was asked to do it as a favor for a friend because it is her birthday. I am gonna do one song for her early years than as she gets older switch it to another song, etc......But how can I do it on one big file? It is gonna go on a dvd or cd and be played at a birthday party and I would like to be able to pop it in and not have to change the cd or have to press any buttons on the dvd player.
Thanks for the help and sorry if the question is confusing....

Create a playlist for the slideshow in iTunes. Then in the slideshow settings, select the entire playlist rather than any individual song. If you can't see your playlists in the box, then you need to look for the little dot (or dimple) and drag it to open the window wider.
For screenshots that beautifully illustrate the process, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2237291 and follow the links in lori_diloretto's last post.
While the iPhoto slideshow is the easiest to create, the timing of the songs during play of the iPhoto slideshow is imprecise, especially when you export the slideshow to QuickTime or iDVD (for burning to disc). If you want to precisely match the music to the slides, you may wish to import your slideshow album into iMovie (use the Media Pane in iMovie, locate the album, and simply drag it into the iMovie project), then manipulate the music track from there. When done, launch iDVD, create a new project, and import the iMovie project. You can customize your DVD menu(s) and burn the movie to DVD.

Adding multiple songs to a single slideshow in LR3

Hello!
So, I am trying to create a slideshow in Lightroom 3.4.1. I'm on a mac, and have been able to succesfully pull in a single song from my iTunes library. However, there are two issues:
1. My slideshow is a bit long, and I would like to have 2-3 songs play during it. However, lightroom will only let me import one song. I even created a playlist in iTunes, then tried to import the whole playlist, but again, it would not let me. I could only import one song
2. Some of my music in iTunes can be imported, but about 70% of my library is 'gray'--or not clickable. I can't figure out why some of my songs can be imported and some cannot.
Thanks for any help!
Ellen

You can't use more than one song. If you want to, you'll have to use a tool to splice them together into a single file.
You can't use DRM-infected music in LR.

Itunes match how do you to select multiple songs or do you click each one

In ITunes match how do you to select multiple songs to download to pc or do you have to click each one.

First make sure you have the current version of iTunes, which is actually 10.5.1. I had to manually download it from apples website, for some reason, it wouldnt auto-update.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Once that is complete, go to the iTunes store. In the Quick Links secion to the right, you should see iTunes Match. This will prompt you to activate your subscription to iTunes match. After that it should ask you to add your computer and once youve done that, it should begin the process of scanning your library and adding it to the cloud
Alternatively, once you activate your subscription, you can also go to the Store dropdown menu in iTunes and select Turn On iTunes Match.

How do I add multiple songs to the iPod library at the same time?

Before the iTunes update, I was able to add multiple songs to the library. Now I must add one song at a time. How can I get enable my iTunes to allow me to "add file to library" with more than one song?

I use add folder option when adding more than one file. Never tried to add more than one file with the add file option. Long ago when I started with iTunes, I made a folder to use when importing files when I was not ripping in directly.

How to delete multiple duplicates of multiple songs?

How to delete multiple duplicates of multiple songs from my library at the same time, rather than each individually?

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.

Trouble with adding certain songs to iTunes and displaying podcasts on iPod

i just ripped a cd into mp3s onto my computer and i tagged the tracks and everthing but i can't add the tracks to my iTunes for some reason. i tried dragging it into the window and selecting "add file to library" but it doesnt work. i was planning on ripping the cd and trying again, but i was wondering why i cant add those tracks.
also, i recently subscribed to a podcast, which i havent done before. after i had updated my iPod with the podcasts, i went into video > video podcasts but it didnt show anything. my recently added list shows the videos but it doesnt show up in my podcasts or any of my other video areas. isn't it supposed to show up there?

It could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

How do I organize my itunes library so that album name only shows up once for multiple song?

When I view the songs in my itunes library, it appears that album names appear multiple times even though they are the same album. (that I may have added to my itunes library at different times).
For example: For U2 album War, there are multiple songs in my library which I downloaded or uploaded in my itunes album at different times. Now the album War under artist U2, appears multiple times. How do I organize and make songs that belong in the same album appear under the album once so when I choose the specific album, all the songs are available there so I can listen to it all or shuffle it within the album. I don't want single songs under the same album names. It is very irritating. Please help to organize my itunes library better, I have a large album and it would be much easier if the album names would appear once when I have multiple songs for that album. Thanks!

Each tune gets a file name - that is how iTunes works. iTunes is a data base manager.
In a PlayList a reference is created that will link to a specific tune.
You can take the tunes that you do not want listed under a particular album name and change the album name using 'Get Info' for that tune(s) from the iTunes window.

How do you apply multiple songs or audio clips to one slideshow?

I created a large project, 200+ slides. I wanted to to use multiple songs so when one ends a new one comes on. Everytime a dragged a new audio clip from Itunes it just replaced the other song.

You have to make one "song' in iTunes that includes all the songs you want to play.

How do I "check" multiple songs at same time?

I'm trying to backup my itunes library to DVD, but itunes will only burn songs from a playlist if the box is checked. I have 900+ songs that are unchecked that I need to backup. I realize I can just re-import them from the original CD, but then I will also have to rate the songs all over again.
A. How do I check multiple songs, or...
B. Is there another way to backup the ratings data for each song?

Highlight all the songs that you want, you could hit command+A to select them all.
Then right click, or control+click and choose "Check Selections"

Adding multiple same-name nodes from one xml into another

Hi,
Following on from my question the other day (Adding multiple different nodes from one xmltype into another), I now have a slightly more complex requirement that I cannot work out where to start, assuming that it's something that can reuse some/all of yesterday's work (thanks again, odie_63!). ETA: I'm on 11.2.0.3
So, here's the (slightly amended) xml along with yesterday's solution:

select xmlserialize(document
           xmlquery(
             'copy $d := $old
              modify (
                insert node element extrainfo {
                  $new/a/b

             passing sd.xml_to_update as "old"
                   , sd.xml_to_extract_from as "new"
             returning content
         indent
from sample_data sd;
That gives me:
<root>
<extrainfo>
    <b>valb</b>
    <d>
      <d1>vald1</d1>
      <d2>vald2</d2>
    </d>
    <f>valf</f>
    <h>
      <h1>valh1</h1>
      <h2>valh2</h2>
    </h>
</extrainfo>
<xmlnode>
    <subnode1>val1</subnode1>
    <subnode2>val2</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
<xmlnode>
    <subnode1>val3</subnode1>
    <subnode2>val4</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
</root>
However, I now need to add in a set of new nodes based on information from the <multinode> nodes, something like:
<root>
<extrainfo>
    <b>valb</b>
    <d>
      <d1>vald1</d1>
      <d2>vald2</d2>
    </d>
    <f>valf</f>
    <h>
      <h1>valh1</h1>
      <h2>valh2</h2>
    </h>
    <newnode>
      <name>fred</name>
      <type>book</type>
    </newnode>
    <newnode>
      <name>bob</name>
      <type>car</type>
    </newnode>
</extrainfo>
<xmlnode>
    <subnode1>val1</subnode1>
    <subnode2>val2</subnode2>
    <type>book</type>
</xmlnode>
<xmlnode>
    <subnode1>val3</subnode1>
    <subnode2>val4</subnode2>
    <type>car</type>
</xmlnode>
</root>
If it's easier, I *think* we would be ok with something like:
<newnode>
<type name="fred">book</type>
<type name="bob">car</type>
</newnode>
The closest I've come is:
with sample_data as (select xmltype('<root>
                                       <xmlnode>

Which produces:

- obviously not right!
Can anyone provide any hints? I've tried searching for similar examples, but I mustn't be putting in the right search terms or something!

or, similarly, to get the alternate output :

, element newnode {
      for $i in $new/a/multinode
      return element type {
        attribute name {data($i/name)}
      , data($i/type)
} as first into $d/root
return $d
So we're going with the second method, but I've discovered that the "$i/name" node is not always present. When that happens, I would like to use a default value (for example, "george"). I promise I've searched and searched, but I'm completely failing to turn up anything that sounds remotely like what I'm after (seriously, I can't believe my google-fu sucks this badly!).
Is there a simple way of doing it? The only thing that I've found that looks vaguely relevant is "declare default namespace...." but I'm not sure that that's the correct thing to use, or if it is, how I'm supposed to reference it when populating the attribute value.
