Controlling iTunes folder creations

I have recently installed iTunes onto my computer running Windows XP Home. I have a few .wma files that I have been converting to .mp3 files (successfully). I do not understand how to keep iTunes from creating folders for artists that did a song with another artist. Call me a control freak! I think that by switching off the option to have iTunes manage the folder where I have my music files stored should have taken care of this problem, but that is not so and it is taking me an extremely long time moving the files back to the correct folder. Upon doing this, I found out that iTunes does not recognize the files that I have moved (into the folder where they were stored before iTunes moved them) and is asking me to locate them. Upon showing iTunes where the file(s) is/are, my only option is to Open the file.
My questions are:
1) How do I keep iTunes from creating new folders?
2) How do I show iTunes where the files are that I had to move back without running in circles?
Thanks for any help.

This is the "Feedback about New Discussions" forum. You should ask your question in iTunes for Windows. I think you'll find more people knowledgable about that version of iTunes there.

  • Control SMSPKG Folder creation in a Particular Partition - SCCM 2012

    Hi Team,
    In SCCM 2012 SP1 environment I have the following hierarchy :
    1 CAS
    2 Primary
    5 Secondary under each Primary
    Secondary Server has 3 partitions C ( 100 GB ), D ( 50 GB ) and E ( 500 GB ).
    C has the OS
    D has the SCCM installed + SQL Express
    E has the Software Content Library, Patches, SCCM backup etc....
    Now when the SCCM Secondary server was installed, During the DP role installation, I chose E drive for Software Lib and package share ( Primary option ) and Secondary as Automatic in both the cases. Based on this configuration, Software Lib and package share
     ( SMSPKGE$ ) got created in E Drive as expected. But SMSPKG folder got created in D Drive which we do not want.
    Now whenever we distribute big package e.g 15GB OS image to Secondary server DPs, it uses D drive SMSPKG folder for the PCK file and fails due to insufficient space in D Drive. 
    What we want is....... that SMSPKG folder should be created and used on E drive which has ample space and should not use SMSPKG folder on D Drive.
    Please let me know if you need any further details in this regard.
    Thanks in Advance for your help
    Mike

    Hi Jorgen,
    Thanks for your reply. 
    That stage has gone as the installation was done 1 month back without
    NO_SMS_ON_DRIVE.SMS file at that time and now we are facing this space issue. Also, I have already tried below options with NO Success :
    1.  Remove DP role from Secondary server, created NO_SMS_ON_DRIVE.SMS file and then again created the DP role back. When the package was pushed to Secondary server DP, it again created and  SMSPKG
    folder in D drive, ignoring the .SMS file.
    2. With DP role in-place,  created NO_SMS_ON_DRIVE.SMS file and again pushed the package. Same result as above..... used the SMSPKG folder on D
    Drive, ignoring the .SMS file.
    3. Under the Windows shares, removed SMS_CPSC$ share mapped to C:\SMSPKG and created SMS_CPSD$ share with same permission level and mapped that to newly created D:\SMSPKG, but no fun... when I pushed the package, it again created SMS_CPSC$ share mapped
    to C:\SMSPKG and used it.
    4. Used Contentlibrarytransfer.exe ( available in R2 toolkit ) to move the SMSPKG folder to E Drive.... it did but when I pushed a package again..... it created SMSPKG folder in D drive and started using it.
    5. Under the Windows shares, used the same SMS_CPSC$ share and mapped that to D:\SMSPKG , but no fun... when I pushed the package, it replacedD:\SMSPKG to C:\SMSPKG and used it.
    In SCCM 2007 we used to have a very simple option to specify the Drive letter where we want to keep the compressed files.... which I see missing in SCCM 2012....or I'm not able to find it.
    Please suggest.

  • How do I create a new iTunes folder?

    After moving backwards and forwards between Mac and PC, different format hard drvies and versions of iTunes (I recently "downgraded" back to iTunes 10.7) my music folder is in complete chaos. There are duplicate files, folders all over the place and deleting music from iTunes doesn't remove their folders. I'm wanting to have a huge clear out and basically rebuild my library and the folder itself from scratch, but I'm having trouble doing so.
    Currently my iTunes folder is on a FAT32 partition on an external hard drive and what I would like to do is create a new, "empty" iTunes folder on the NTFS partition, then pick and choose which mp3s to copy across, leaving behind all the stuff I don't want to be deleted once I'm done. I tried doing this by making a new library, but all the actual mp3s are still being kept in the same place. Basically I want iTunes to ignore the folder that already exists long enough for me to copy the stuff I want to a new one. The best way I can describe it is that if you were to install iTunes on a new PC, it would create a folder without any actual music in it, then you could drag and drop mp3s from your old folder into iTunes itself, filling the folder up.
    I hope this makes sense to somebody who can help me out, thanks!

    assuming iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s):
    connect your iDevices (one after the other) and right-click or control-click them in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    above will cover your purchases. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.
    when done, go iTunes > preferences > advanced and point iTunes media folder location to the new external. on the same tab, ensure the copy files ... when adding option is checkmarked.
    next, go file > library > organize library > consolidate files.

    Yes, you copy each one's iTunes folder to the /Home/Music/ folder in each of their separate user accounts. You will first need to create a separate user account for each of them using the Users & Groups preferences.

  • Locked iTunes folder & 'AppleSyncNotifier.exe – Entry Point Not Found'

    Below message seen on log in on a Windows 7 laptop, even after a full reinstall.:
    "AppleSyncNotifier.exe – Entry Point Not Found
    The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll"
    In case it's related, soon after, when trying to run iTunes, it failed with a 'no such .exe' type message. Itunes.exe had gone.
    After saving the user iTunes library tree, I installed a fresh uptodate iTunes which failed because one of the iTunes subfolders, iTunes.Resources, would not let itself be deleted, not even when on the Administrator account.  Solved this by installing in a slightly-differently named iTunes folder, of course.
    How the above DLL survived the reinstall, I don't know.  Is there any brutish way that I can nuke the original iTunes folder's remains?

    I'd first try uninstalling and reinstalling your MobileMe control panel.

    After "Restoring iTunes Library backup" it wont link to the files in the iTunes folder. I've followed the procedure as described, and the iTunes folder is in the correct location. iTunes lists all my music correctly (albeit with no artwork), but can't locate any of the files.
    I've been restoring my iTunes folder from a backup hard drive to a new computer on which I've downloaded the latest iTunes (10.7). If this is a newer version than the one I backed up with could this be the problem? (I had the latest (to my knowledge) iTunes when I backed up the folder about 3 weeks ago, was this version 10.7?)
    Or is the version of iTunes (within recent updates) not an issue when restoring a library?
    Using Windows 7.
    Any help please?

    From the top of the page where the scripts live...
    The general method of use is to download the script to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist. Some scripts offer a choice of track by track confirmation of changes or fully automatic processing of the selection. Many of the scripts can optionally display a progress bar while running.
    You are strongly advised to backup your entire library, or at the very least the iTunes Library.itl file, before use. Test the behaviour of your chosen script on a small group of files first to make sure it does what you want before applying it to large numbers of files.
    Most builds of Windows will execute *.vbs scripts when you double-click them. If that doesn't happen then you might need to visit the Add/Remove Programs or Programs & Features control panel to enable the Windows Scripting Host. I can track down details if you have issues.
    Backing up and restoring data is an area that is often glossed over. Most people don't try to learn much about it until they've lost something important. (Me too )
    If your iTunes library was in the usual layout then normally copying the whole iTunes folder from the User's Music folder in the old computer to the User's Music folder in the new one will usually work fine. Ideally this is done before iTunes is installed so that there is no empty library to replace, and all settings are picked up from the old library. This post contains more details.

  • I messed up my iTunes folder! How do I transfer it to another hard drive?

    Hi, my "C" hard drive is almost full, so I decided I would transfer my "My Music" folder to another internal hard drive I have installed in my computer (the "G" drive). This folder takes up 4.59 GB of space. I use Windows XP Home, SP3, along with iTunes 9.0.2.25 with an old iPod Nano 4 GB.
    So I made sure iTunes was closed and I copied the folder. Before I copied it, I checked, and inside the iTunes folder was:
    1) iTunes Music folder (inside has all the artists I have listed alphabetically)
    2) Previous iTunes Libraries folder
    3) iTunes Library Extras.itdb
    4) iTunes Library Genius.itdb
    5) iTunes Library.itl
    6) iTunes Music Library.xml
    7) sentinel
    Now I could be wrong about the above, but I know the iTunes Music folder was definitely there (since I checked it to find out where my songs were stored).
    So after I copied the folder, I opened iTunes and tried to change the directory so iTunes could find my songs, via "Preferences" > "Advanced" tab (in doing this, I noticed the old choice was in the C drive pointing to an "iTunes Media" folder.) So I selected "browse" and pointed it to the "iTunes Music" folder in the G drive and then hit "change", but iTunes did not find my music, even though it was right there! I closed iTunes and re-opened it, but it still could not find the music!
    So then I went back to the C drive and went into the old "My Music" folder, which I did not want to delete until I was sure I had made the transfer ok. Much to my surprise, I found new files which magically appeared there after I opened iTunes!
    I found these:
    1) iTunes Media folder
    with these subfolders:
    1) Movies folder (I don't have any movies for iTunes)
    2) Automatically Add to iTunes folder
    3) .iTunes Preferences.plist
    and maybe an empty iTunes "Music" folder.
    This left my confused. So I tried to rearrange everything back in the C drive like it originally was, and hit "reset" under iTunes "Preferences" > "Advanced" and the music seems to be playing ok now...but I am not sure what damage has been done.
    Here are my questions:
    1) Why did an "iTunes Media" folder magically appear in the old C drive after I opened iTunes?
    2) What belongs where now? What hierarchy of iTunes folders and files should I use in my new G drive?
    3) How do I get iTunes to recognize where my music has been transferred to?
    Thanks so much!
    Stephanie

    Oh, and I finally did fix everything!
    Basically, when I did that "Consolidate" function, iTunes made doubles of all my songs in the Media folder, and also in my music library list on the top left of my iTunes control panel!!!
    And the problem wasI was not looking at my music library list in the top left when I was syncing my iPod or trying to find the new paths for those 40 broken files; but rather, I was looking at the "Purchase" playlist, or whatever that is called, which records all my purchases! I never knew I had another master list called "music library" (yop left)!! I thought "Purchases" was my master list of songs. Duh!
    So I started dragging songs from "Purchase" to the "Recycle" bin (so I could re-drag them back to iTunes--found this method on a google search), like someone advised, to fix my iPod sync problem. But I noticed when I was doing that, they were not appearing in my recycle bin, but just disappearing like they would do when you delete a song from one of your custom playlists, like "On-the-Go" or whatever. So that made me think there is another master list somewhere else (not "purchases"), and I found it on the top left of iTunes, the music library! There I found out that every song, except the one I didn't buy from Apple, was duplicated, and the second of each pair could not be found (had a gray exclamation point next to it)! So I deleted all those duplicates...took forever! And then when I synced my iPod, everything was perfect!
    And, to my surprise, even though iTunes said it could not sync those 100 songs I referenced a few posts ago (Posted: Dec 12, 2009 9:03 PM) due to broken links, that was actually a lie!!!! After the iPod restore and new failed sync, I listed to my iPod, and found those missing 100 songs!!! I cannot believe iTunes lied to me!!!
    Also, why isn't there a command listed to check all songs (this is a rhetorical question)! I have 900, and it would have taken forever to manually check them. I found out you have to hold "control" (via a google search) but this is not listed as an option under any of the iTunes menus!
    Finally, that article you gave me was excellent! the one thing that would make it better is they should tell you what exactly to name your new folder or folders when you move them to a new hard drive, for dummies like me (do you call them "My Music" or "iTunes Media" or "Music" or "itunes Music", etc., especially when your old folder was stilled called "iTunes Music" and not "iTunes Media". This caused some problems yesterday for me, but overall I was ok!

    Repair iTunes Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
    If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
    Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
    If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
    The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

  • Cover flow into album art and how to control iTunes from another app.

    Hi all 2 areas of concen, one is coverflow/ album art and the other is itunes controller:
    I have searched but cannot find the answer to this:
    1) I have some songs with album info already, and I used iTunes to get the album art for coverflow etc. ... some songs from the same album did not have the album category filled in, I go back and fill it in: now how do I get iTunes to recognize the album art so it shows up for the newly corrected songs?
    2) In coverflow, iTunes picked the wrong album cover, can I manually fix it/pick the right one?
    3) will coverflow only show album art for those albums recognized by iTunes, or will it use album art that I get from other sources and add manually? And what will show up in my ipod?
    and lastly
    4), is there anyway to control iTunes without switching apps (if I am working in Word or safari and want to skip a song, etc)...is there an overlay controller?
    TIA

  • Controling itunes on another mac

    Hi there.
    I really want to be able to control itunes on my main mac from my iBook. I have wireless networking and so far have tried:
    AirControl Which is really really bad.
    iHam on iRye. Nice interface, totally chokes on large libraries, I gave up waiting for it after 10 minutes.
    SlimServer (Actually for the squeezebox devices) This is freeware which apparently can control itunes, I only seemed to get as far as getting the software to start playing, but I want it to stream out the main macs audio however its streaming it wirelessly into the ether.
    netTunes. Probably the best of the lot, seems to do little more than show the actual itunes window on my main mac on my iBook, however the quality is appalling, you can barely read the window, plus they want what I think is far to much money.
    I feel confident that one day apple will integrate this in, surely they have too, whats the point of a airpot thingy for streaming tunes if you have to run down to the basement to change tracks lol?
    However is there anything I have missed, anything else I can try? The best overall picture I have seen is itunes catalog in terms of the wonderful web pages it creates, but I don't see a way to get it to control my other mac.
    I have been playing with this for a long time and would love a solution?
    Cheers

    I have no understanding of Apache, could you offer any tips?
    Sure. The first thing to do is to open up your System Preferences and go to the Sharing Pane. You'll see a choice there for "Personal Web Sharing". Activate it. It should take a couple of seconds to start up, then you'll see text down below that gives you the URLs for sites on your computer. Note the one without your user name on the end. You'll use that later. If Apache doesn't start, look at your Console application at the log "/var/log/httpd/error_log". If you can't figure out how to fix the error, post back here with the error.
    Copy the acgi dispatcher application to a convenient place on your hard drive. I put mine in the Applications folder. Go ahead and start the application. The first time you run it, you'll be prompted to install some stuff. Just accept the defaults.
    In the acgi dispatcher package, there's an AppleScript called 'itunes.acgi'. Copy that to the "/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables" folder. There should also be a Unix Executable File called "nph-acgihelper" in there. There might be a couple of other files in there, too. You can safely ignore them.
    You should be able to use a web browser to control iTunes. Remember the URL you made a note of above? Type it into your browser and add "cgi-bin/itunes.acgi" to the end. So it should look like: "http://remotemachine/cgi-bin/itunes.acgi".
    acgi dispatcher should launch the AppleScript and that should, in turn, launch iTunes if it's not already running. Once the AppleScript and iTunes are running, browser control should be much quicker. I just leave acgi dispatcher, iTunes and the itunes.acgi AppleScript running all the time.
    Good luck, and post back with any questions you might run across.
    best,

  • Why are itunes folder files appearing on my desktop

    I installed itunes on my new desktop and the itunes folder files are showing up on my desktop.  Does anyone know how to fix this.

    This may happen if there are permissions problems with the folder that iTunes is supposed to be putting its files in.
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
    If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownneship from an account with administror privileges.

  • Itunes folder on ipod (video) is not visible in disk mode?

    I am trying to use my ipod as a disk drive to move its music to my desktop (had to reload XP on desktop and used ipod is the music backup). Following the instructions from ipod help (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173) works just fine up to a point. However, when the ipod is in disk mode and I go to move music from it to the desktop there is no "itunes" folder visible to drag and drop? Folders for photos and calendar show up, but no folder for music (itunes). There is clearly music on the ipod as I am listening to it right now. The folder is invisible and I can't access it? Help please. Ric

    This suggestion worked to see the hidden folder(s). Thanks very much, but I feel like I am miles away from moving my ipod music to my new computer and getting it all to work. Here is why...
    1. First when I plug the ipod in, in disk mode, to the USB slot it shows up as a K drive for a minute or so and then disappears. itunes keeps opening, asking me to sync (which will erase all my music on the ipod!) and the K drive (ipod) vanishes.
    2. I pod help says to drag the itunes file out to the desktop and then drag the itunes file on the ipod into the "my music" file within documents and settings. However, there is an "ipod control" file (was hidden) and within this there is the following: artwork, itunes (with 13 subfolders of its own), device, and music. So do I just drag the itunes file inside ipod control into My music? Or do I drag the whole ipod control file? or other?
    3. Additionally there are K drive (ipod) files for calendar, photos, contacts, notes, and ipod control (was hidden). I don't care about any content in the first four, but are they needed to operate? Do I drag these over also to the My music file?
    Whew, very frustrating. Thanks, Ric

  • ITunes Folder on Time Capsule missing after MATCH

      To Start, I will explain my set-up.  I have an Extreme, connected to my Cable Modem, in my Computer-Room, which is hardwired to my primary Mac Pro computer.  I then have the Extreme wirelessly bridged to my Time Capsule, in my Family-Room, which is hardwired to my Mac Mini, which is in turn hardwired to my TV.  I also have a Macbook Pro in the down-stairs Bed-Room, an iPad in the up-stairs Bed-Room and an iPhone in my pocket, all on the Wi Fi network.  I keep my iTunes, iPhoto, Mail, etc., data files on the Time Capsule and have links on the other devices so that each App on each Computer retrrieves the data files from the Time Capsule (only problem is that only one computer can pull the data at any given time, which is not a problem for me).  All worked great until I ran MATCH on my iTunes library.
      MATCH itself seems to have worked well enough, though I did have to run it a few different times to get all the music uploaded.  My library is pretty large, so I am not real sure yet if EVERY thing got uploaded, but it appears that it did.  But afterwards I recieved errors and now my iTunes folder is missing from the Time Capusle, though the disk space appears to be still taken up.  Not only that, but I can not seem to write to the Time Capsule at all, and although I have been able to copy some of my data from the Time Capsule, some I can not.  I was able to copy the Mail folder from the Time Capsule to the Mac Mini, but I keep gettings errors when I try to open Mail on the MAc Pro, then Mail shuts down.  I downloaded all the Music from MATCH to my MacPro, but it is just the Music, not the Movies, Videos, etc..  My iPhotos will not seem to copy.
      I have not figured out any way to run any kind of Disk Utilities on the Time Capsule and do not have any idea what I can do other then wipe the disk and start again.  This is a 2 TB unit and my second Time Capsule, the first was returned to Apple due to other problems.  I have never used it to do backups, just as a NAS, though I do have most of my data copied onto other drives.  I am sure I will loss some data and will spend a lot of time trying to rebuild, if I can't do something with the Time Capsule.
      Any body with any ideas?

    To me, it acts like the external drive "went to sleep", but i'm pretty sure that's not the case. Nor can i find any place in Mac OS/X to control that other than the power settings, and all my hardware is set to NOT sleep.
    Chances are pretty good that the "sleep" function for this drive is built-in as part of the drive's firmware and you will have little or no control over it. Most drives do incorporate this "feature."
    The other odd thing is that I have a fairly extensive set of Sonos music servers around the house which access that same music drive on that same time capsule.. and it NEVER loses access to anything... could be because Sonos doesn't use the iTunes library to access the music.
    As you probably are already aware, iTunes is basically composed of two parts: 1) the iTunes Library, and 2) the iTunes Media. Typically these are both stored within the user's Music folder, but they can be in totally separate locations.
    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think Sonos relies on the iTunes application, but instead, will access media files directly ... in this case, the iTunes Media files located on the hard drive connected to the TC.

  • Unable to copy iTunes folder to external WD My Book drive

    No idea what's going on here. If I attempt to copy my iTunes folder to an external HD it fails with the error message
    "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient priviledges for some of the items"
    If I attempt to copy a single (artist) folder it fails with the same message after creating the destination folder (though empty)
    If I manually copy the contents (songs) of a folder from the iMac to the destination folder on the HD it works.
    Any ideas ? I have Read/Write permissions on the source, the target drive is a 750Gb WD My Book formatted as FAT under OSX. I even ran Repair Permissions on the iMac drive

    If that works, then my guess is that the iTunes folder and its sub-folders probably have some sort of a permissions limitation placed on them, probably an Access Control List. Try doing a "list really long with every option known to man" on the iTunes folder and various sub-folders. Start with the iTunes folder itself:
    ls -alO@e ~/Music/iTunes
    Hit return and let's see what it says. If your iTunes folder is in the default location inside your home Music folder you can just copy and paste the command. Since you have managed to copy the stuff using Rsyncx you may not want to bother, as tracking this stuff down can be tedious.

  • Make iTunes more selective and moved iTunes folder

    Hi
    I would like to stop iTunes seeing some media on my computer system. (stored videos, sound clips etc)
    Currently it finds and adds all media, even the smallest old video clip to its library and to the consolidated media folder.
    This means it uses lots of space.
    Is there a way to exclude files or folders from the scan to prevent this?
    2)
    I moved my iTunes folder following instructions found here. (hence consolidated media folder, still required?)
    This worked but I would be happier if the associated library files can be moved to the same location.
    Currently they must stay in the original location.
    Is there a way to do this please.

    1. There is no fine control over what gets added if you let iTunes scan your computer for media. My personal recomendation for this is to avoid the inital scan, change the default settings so that iTunes doesn't copy files to the iTunes Media folder, move existing content that wants to be in the library into the iTunes Media folder, then add the iTunes Media folder to the library. I prefer to organise my files & folders manually but usually recommend others to let iTunes do it as it is less effort.
    2. By using the recommended method to move the media content you have created a split library. The library files are on one path and the media is at another. It is usually possible to move the library files to a new location provided the media stays put. Exact instructions depend on where you have moved the media folder to and what name you gave it. This post has further details but if you want to let me know where your media and library folders are now I can write something more specific.
    N.b. if you don't get a response to a new topic within a day or two then it has probably been buried under new messages before being noticed by someone who might have a solution to offer. Once it is no longer within the first pew pages of topics it is unlikely to get spotted by anyone so your best option is to bump the thread.
