Any Tips In Loading My Library???

I use my external drive for all my music...the problem is, I have around 500G of music files in my library, and it always takes too long (around AN HOUR OR SO) just to open up my itunes (load my library) (well, I know the problem is not with my PC).....is there a way to solve this?...thanks.

First thing to do is empty your browser's cache, usually found under the name of the browser in the menu bar.
Restart your browser when it starts slowing down, and check in User>Applications>Utilite>Activity  Monitor to see if anything is hogging your CPU.
Please let us know how you make out,

  • HT1751 I have moved my library from an external hard drive into my laptop music file but I am not able to open i-tunes when holding down the shift key as advised in step 4 and thus not seeing the library option box - any tips please??

    I have moved my itunes library from old computer to portable hard drive and then on, into new laptop, in music file. However I am then unable to open I-Tunes when holding down the shift button as directed in step 4 - this means I am not seeing the library choice box and cannot synch the tunes into ITunes library - any tips please?........Alan

    Close iTunes. Click the icon to launch iTunes and immediately press and hold down the left shift key. Keep holding until prompted to choose or create a library. If iTunes opens normally, close it,  and try again.

  • Slow to load the library for streaming - any NAS option that can help?

    Hi
    I've been using PC and recently got a MacBook. I have a NAS (QNAP) with 250Gb of music (as my iTunes library) and only want to use streaming and not store the music on my AppleTV. The problem is that every time I start up AppleTV and my Mac it takes quite long time to load the library before I can start playing music. Is there any solution to this? Is it possible to have either LAN cable or USB cable directly between my NAS and Apple TV and access the server from my MacBook this way? I had the same problem previously when using PC with the NAS connected directly to the PC and then streaming to the AppleTV.
    I'm not sure whether this problem is caused by lack of memory/performance on the AppleTV when you have a large library or whether it is a problem with the wireless connectivity. Or if it is something that I haven't set up properly.
    Thanks in advance

    "Is it possible to have either LAN cable or USB cable directly between my NAS and Apple TV and access the server from my MacBook this way?'
    I have my files on a TC but did have them on an external drive connected usb to either a TC or Extreme. I used ethernet from either router to ATV for a much faster connection than N wireless. You'll still have to wait a little bit but its worth it.

  • Unable to open Aperture 2 because it is apparently in conflict with an old trial version 3. Any tips how to solve this?

    I am unable to open my Aperture2.
    The following warning message shows on top of the ususl opening window:
    Quote
    The libraryin "users/pedro/pictures/Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary" cannot be loaded because it is from newer version of Aperture.
    Unquote
    It looks like some kind of conflict with an old trial version 3, to which I never upgraded.
    Any tips to help me solving the issue?

    Do you need to run Aperture 2, or do you need to open the "Aperture 3 Trial Library2.aplibrary"?
    If you only want to run Aperture 2, then launch Aperture by double-clicking your regular Aperture 2 library; this should open Aperture on the correct library. In Aperture 3 you also simply could hold down the options-key while double-clicking the Aperture Applications icon in the Dock - probably this works in Aperture 2 as well,
    But if you need to open your Aperture 3 trial library with Aperture 2, because you converted your Aperture 2 library to Aperture 3 format; there is no easy way to do it. The best would be to find a backup of your library from the time before you converted it. If you do not have such a backup, then the easiest way would be to upgrade to Aperture 3 at this point.
    I do not know enough about the Aperture 2 library format to be able to tell you how to manually downgrade an Aperture 3 library to Aperture 2 format.

  • Home sharing on iDevices not loading large library

    I store my entire music library (3TB of ALAC files) on a Mac Mini connected to my Time Capsule. I can home share the library flawlessly on my laptop, but it absolutely refuses to load the library on my iPhone or iPad. I'm using all the latest software (iOS7, iTunes 11.1) with an iPhone 5 and iPad 3.
    When I try to share my library, the circle starts to load, but never gets past halfway. I've tried EVERYTHING, i.e. signing out of home sharing and quitting iTunes, restarting the Mac Mini, restarting the iPhone, unplugging the Time Capsule and plugging it back in, and several other tips I've found around here and elsewhere online, but nothing seems to work!
    I have other apps (such as Audiotap) that will do the trick, but they leave a gap between tracks, so I would prefer to get home sharing working properly. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello Lee,
    I have the exact same problem.  I have two iPads, one running iOS6 and the other iOS7. iOS6 is able to load the library as expected but not the iPad running on iOS7.  The problem has to do with the size of your library.
    Have a look at your "iTunes Music Libary.xml" and the "iTunes Library.xml" files on the machine running iTunes.  Most likely they are over 20MB in size.  Therein lies the problem.  Somehow the Music and Video app's both have problems parsing large xml files and in turn will timeout before completion. 
    You can easily test this. Sign on as a different user and create a new iTunes library, import a few items and start the Video/Music app on your iOS device. There is no need to restart, unplug etc. Home Sharing works as advertised when dealing with small libraries. By the way, the sorting problem is fixed in iOS7.

  • Internet very, very slow! Any tips?

    All online applications have been running pretty slow for quite some time. Then two nights ago, I accidentally unpugged the power strip, and ever since then it has been EXTREMELY slow, taking at least a couple minutes to load many pages...especially logins or sending messages. In the iTunes music store, it has been taking me around 2 minutes to get from one page to the next!! A lot of times it times out...
    I'm not a computer person at all, but it seems like there must be some way to help this. Hopefully I haven't ruined my computer by unplugging it! If anyone has any tips on how to get things running again, please help me!!
    Thanks!
    Ashley
    P.S. I have a lot (about 2,500) songs in my iTunes library. Does that make a huge difference?

  • I did allllll that is listed below, but when I get to sync iPad, it won't sync, what do I do? Preparation Before you connect any device to a new library go to the Devices tab

    THis is what I did, but when I get to sync, it won't sync.....what do I doLynnLynn
    Preparation
    Before you connect any device to a new library go to the Devices tab of the the preferences panel via Edit > Preferences (Windows) or iTunes > Preferences (Mac) and ensure the box next to Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically is ticked. You can now safely connect the device to your computer without the danger of media being automatically deleted or overwritten.
    If this device contains contacts or calendar items that are not already on the computer you are using, and that you wish to recover, then make sure you have at least one contact & one event in the applications that will sync with the device (e.g. Windows Address Book or Outlook under Windows, iCal & Address Book on a Mac).Dummy entries will do, but there must be at least one if the data is to be retrieved from the device in step 7 below.
    Transfer purchases
    You can transfer your iTunes Store purchases into a new library, after connecting the device, with the menu itemFile > Transfer Purchases from <Device>. You should be prompted to authorize the computer to your iTunes account if you have not already done so. If your device holds content from more than one account you will need to authorize each one.
    See also: HT1848 - iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer.
    Back up (iOS only)
    If this is an iOS device you should now right-click on it (control-click on a Mac) in the left-hand column of the iTunes window and click Back Up to make a backup of the current settings and application data on the device.
    Recover other media
    iTunes only permits the transfer of iTunes Store purchases. If your device contains other media that you've ripped from CD or downloaded from other online stores you can either go back to the original sources or use third party software to extract your data from your device. There is a list of some of the software available below.
    Recover other purchases
    Your device may not have held all your iTunes Store purchases. You can recover qualifying purchases from your account by visiting the home page of the iTunes Store and clicking on the Purchased link in the Quick Linkssection in the right-hand column.
    See also: HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Restore (iOS only)
    Having backed up your device, and rescued all the media from it that you can, you should now restore the device from the backup that you took earlier to ensure that the device is properly associated with this new library. Right-click on it (control-click on a Mac) in the left-hand column of the iTunes window and click Restore from Backup...
    Sync
    Set up your preferences for syncing Music, TV Shows, Podcasts, Info etc. then click Sync. For a device that holds calendar or contact information you should be prompted to restore or merge. Click merge to copy this information into your computer. Your device is now properly associated with your new library and you shouldn't have lost any data.
    Backup your library
    For the future you should backup your library to a separate hard drive or network share as restoring a backup is much easier than the process above. The user tip Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy gives a suggested way of doing this effectively for Windows users. Mac owners can make use of Time Machine, or useCarbon Copy Cloner which does a similar job to SyncToy.

  • Unable to load XDB library

    Hi, i have just created a new database but i keep getting the following error
    ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [unable to load XDB library],
    initializing SGA: sga_pass1Dynamic link error: Could not load module /u03/app/or
    acle/product/10.2.0.5/lib32/libxdb.so.
    The module has an invalid magic number.
    None of the other databases that have been running on the machine give out this error.
    I am running oracle 10.2 on aix
    I have read it may be something to do with it being 64 bit libraries. Even though none of the other DB's gave out any errors I have changed the setting in the user profile removing any mention of lib32 so they now read
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib
    LIBPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
    export LIBPATH
    Ive shutdown the box, restarted the databases but the error occurs
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks

    Please check metalink doc ID 1292089.1
    It seems you have started the database with worng LIB settings, there are some steps provided to resolve this in the document
    On AIX there is special step for it and that should resolve your issue.

  • How to Load 2 library files using System.loadLibrary in one .java file!!!

    Hello,
    Someone please help me. What I am trying to do is load two .DLL files in my program. Program works fine when I
    do the following way i.e. I have two .java files and in each I am loading one .DLL file. But I don't want to have
    two .java files I want to load both the .DLL files in one program.
    **************** Example.java **********
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    public class Example
    public native int A(String in);
    static
    System.loadLibrary( "API2" );
    public static void main( String args[])
         Ex ex = new Ex();
         int r;
         r = ex.A("TEST");
    public Example()
    *****************Ex.java*****************
    public class exsysml
    public native int A(String in);
    public exsysml()
    System.loadLibrary("API3");
    The above way works. But I need only one .java file to load both the .DLL files. i.e.
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.*;
    public class Example
    public native int A(String in);
    static
    System.loadLibrary( "API2" );
    System.loadLibrary( "API3" );     
    public static void main( String args[])
         Example ex = new Example();
         int r;
         r = ex.A("TEST");
    public Example()
    but when I do this way it doesn't work and I get a UnSatisfiedLinkage Error at ex.A("TEST"). While doing the top way it works.
    How can I fix this to just have one .java file and load both the library files as done in the bottom program but doing this program doesn't work. Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    what I figured out so far is that we can only load one library file in a single class and define all the native methods present in that library in the class where we are loading it. Means we can't load multiple library files in a single class. It's just my thought else if someone provides a better solution. I may be wrong so that's why I need your help.
    Thanks

  • Problem with loading native library in java version "1.5.0_05"

    My application uses a native coded drawing. With java version 1.4.xx it was working just fine but with java 1.5.xx it gives the following error at the time of loading native library:
    java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/abyzov/tmp/friend32-1.6.02/libfriend.so:
    /home/abyzov/tmp/friend32-1.6.02/libfriend.so: undefined symbol: XtWindowToWidget
    I assumed that java loads all necessary X-libraries at start up but it seems to be not true for version 1.5.xx. Does anybody now about this kind of problems? Should I report it as a bug?

    I have this exact same problem. I developed an application all along using 1.4.2_08 to be exact no problems. I was forced to switch to 1.5.0_06, now when I try to run the app I get:
    java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: <path to library>/libcomlib.so: <path to library>/libcomlib.so: undefined symbol: yp_get_default_domain
    I have tried compiling it in both 1.4.2_8 and 1.5.0_06 and it compiles perfectly but when I run with 1.5.0_06 it messes up.
    If you found the problem with this or anyone else has any advice please let me know.

  • HT1351 playlist on mac is not the same on nano after sync any tips?

    This has never happened before - usually worked like a charm - any tips?

    Hi
    I have checked Sync Music and also entire music library. It is weird because this has always worked before.
    What I create are playlists for running. Every 10 minutes I insert a one minute short song for a walk break. On my mac, I set it up in the playing order I want, sync and off I go.
    Yesterday I took an existing playlist and just added a couple of songs to lengthen it as I am doing a long run Sunday. Thats when things went wrong!
    The play list on my mac is perfect. The one on my IPOD put all the one minute songs together in a row so it didnt hold the format.
    Help appreciated - this is my first 1/2 marathon and I need my tunes!
