Different formats in iTunes

I understand that I have to encode all my videofiles to the H264 AppleTV standard. I already have many of the same files converted to iPhone in the iTunes library. So I will get double up of videofiles in iTunes and on the ATV (when iTunes is open on my Mac). Is it possible to avoid the iPhone videos to appear on the ATV?
H264 ATV is also a bad format to play on my Mac (bad quality) so I will have my other H264 files in iTunes too. That will be 3 files per film in iTunes.. Is it possible to sort them by type?

yes, if you "untick" them in the itunes library then they won't be made avaiable to the appletv.
however you may find that by unticking them, it might also make them unavailable to the iphone.

Multiple video format, 1 iTunes entry

I have searched for this, and , can't seem t find an answer.
I have multiple apple devices, and, like to rip my Blu-ray Discs to watch on these devices. I have an Apple TV , iPad, iPad mini and iPod touch.
This makes for a messy iTunes library though. Because (using the movie batman as an example) in my iTunes library, I have the same movie, multiple times because I encoded it for several devices. It will be listen something like this:
Batman (iPad)
Batman (AppleTV)
Batman (iPod Touch)
So, my question is, is there a particular naming convention I can use where I can rip 3 different formats and all three versions will roll up into one entry in iTunes where iTunes and my devices will be smart enough to use the correct file in different situations??
Any amount of help I can get on this would be greatly appreciated :)
Hope everyone had (is having) a great holiday :)

Me too, all my movies are on Ext HDD with an alias pointing to them from the movies folder in my home directory but in itunes i do not know how to add any of them.
The movies are in avi format DivX and Xvid.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Edit...
Ok got the files added but it copies them to my musc folder, is there a way to keep them in the original place on my ext hdd?

GB only exports to AIFF files, you need to make conversions in iTunes:

What audio format does iTunes convert to and use?

I got an ipod touch 4 a few months back, and it had to convert many of my songs to a different format. I need to put some songs on a rewritable cd/dvd to work in a cd player. I think it is an MP4 format. We tried it on a rewritable DVD-RW and a CD-R. Neither work. We tried on two different cd players. They act as if nothing was there. I need to know if Mp4 format is the problem and if iTunes can convert it to the right format. I can't find what format it converted my other songs to. Thanks for suggestions!

iTunes does not convert the audio format unless you ask it to, either by ripping from an audio CD or using the conversion process. (In iTunes for Windows it also does a conversion when a WMA file is added.) Other than that, it leaves files in the audio format they are in.
When it does convert, it uses the format that you have selected in the "Import Preferences." That value defaults to AAC, but also allows selection of MP3, Apple Lossless, WAV, or AIFF.

What file formats can itunes play?

After looking at hundreds of posts, I got fed up and decided to ask these questions. What file formats does itunes play and how can you change/adjust them? I thought there was a place to do this when I installed itunes, but I haven't been able to find it so far.
Thanks

Thanks for the help, but my question is still unanswered, I want to know how to associate different file types with iTunes, maybe I am not asking the question correctly, or don't know the terminology. I know that my real player can be made to associate different file types from the tools menu, I check off the boxes with the different extensions, like, .mp3, wav, midi, .ogg, etc... I thought there was a feature like this on iTunes, but I can't find it, is it only available when I install it?

Inserting data from one table to another in different format

Hello,
I would like to know what I am doing wrong with the following code when I write a data from one another to another table in a different format. I am now learning PL/SQL and am using this as
a test problem.
I have a table called students which has the following columns:
SQL> desc student
Name Null? Type
----------- ----------------STUDENT_ID NUMBER(10)
COURSE VARCHAR2(10)
CREDITS NUMBER(10)
I have created another table called new_student which has the following structure:
SQL> desc new_student
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ------------- STUDENT_ID NUMBER(10)
COURSE VARCHAR2(30)
CREDITS VARCHAR2(10)
The data in the student table is:
SQL> select * from student;
STUDENT_ID COURSE CREDITS
1 Science 4
1 History 3
2 Science 4
2 History 3
2 Math 4
3 Sociology 3
3 Psycology 3
I want to store the STUDENT table data in NEW_STUDENT table as:
STUDENT ID COURSES CREDITS
1 Science/History 4/3
2 Science/History/Math 4/3/4
3 Sociology/Psycology 3/3
This is my code:
DECLARE
-- Get all the student IDs
CURSOR studentlist_cursor IS select distinct student_id from student ORDER BY student_id;
-- Get the information for each student ID
CURSOR courses_cursor(nstudentid number) is select course, credits from student where student_id=nstudentid;
nIndex     INTEGER;
pltcourses     DBMS_SQL.VARCHAR2_TABLE;
pltcredits     DBMS_SQL.NUMBER_TABLE;
newcourses varchar2(50);
newcredits varchar2(10);
BEGIN
FOR student_rec IN studentlist_cursor
LOOP
nIndex:=0;
-- Loop through each student ID from student_rec to get the
--courses and creditsstudent ID
FOR courses_rec in courses_cursor(student_rec.student_id)
     LOOP
     nIndex:=nIndex+1;
     pltcourses(nIndex):=courses_rec.course;
-- Store the course data for each student ID in newcourses
-- while doing so check if it is null or put a '/' between each course
loop
if newcourses is null then
newcourses:=pltcourses(nIndex);
else
newcourses:=newcourses||'/'||pltcourses(nIndex);
end if;
end loop;
     pltcredits(nIndex):=courses_rec.credits;
--Store credits data in variable newcredits
--If the newcredits is not null then put a '/' between each credits
loop
if newcredits is null then
newcredits:=pltcredits(nIndex);
else
newcredits:=newcredits||'/'||pltcredits(nIndex);
end if;
end loop;
-- Insert student id, newcourses, newcredits into NEW_STUDENT
INSERT INTO NEW_STUDENT
(student_id ,
course,
credits
) VALUES
(student_rec.student_id,
newcourses,
newcredits
COMMIT;
-- come out of the student id record and go to the next student --id record
END LOOP;
-- come out of the loop
END LOOP;
END;
While doing so I get an error message:
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
ORA-06512: at line 23.
The error is at the line:
newcourses:=newcourses||'/'||pltcourses(nIndex);
Can anyone help me by pointing out where the mistake is?
Thank you for reading this long mail.
Thank you.
Rama.

Header and Footer in different format

Hi ,
I am using a single RDF file to generate a report in 4
different formats by giving the destype during rumtime. I am
facing a problem regarding the Header and Footer . My requirment
is to show the Header and Footer once in HTML (Header on first
page and Footer on last page) and in case of RTF andPDF on each
page. The header and footer contains formula columns in which I
query from database.
Can anyone help me how to do this using one single RDF file.
Thanks,
Alka

Hi,
We tried using trigger as suggested by you for displaying the
header and footer once in HTML. Now we are able to show the
Header on first page in HTML but we also getting blank rows
between records wherever we are hidding the Header .
Please suggest how can we remove these blank rows.
regards,
Alka.
hello,
you could achieve this by using the format trigger of the
header/footer-objects, where you could check the desformat and
the page-number in order to dermine if they should be printed or
not.

Action to open and save multiple files in a different format

Photoshop CS5
TCS 3
I haven't used actions before.
I want and to open all files in a folder of one format and save them to a different format.
How is this done?
Thanks
Rob

Assuming you have all one format and would like to just open all the files and save as a different format without changing anything...
One way, using Photoshop and actions and automation, would be to define an action that just does a File - Open then File - Save As to a different file.
To define an action, in the ACTIONS panel create a new set and a new action, then just record the steps on an existing file. Once done, hit the Stop button.
Once this very simple action has been defined, use File - Automate - Batch... to set up to run the action on a whole folder full of files.
You'll likely want to use the [ ] Override Action "Open" Commands and [ ] Override Action "Save As" Commands options. The latter option allows you to do things like specify the JPEG save quality in the action, and not be prompted for it every time.
Your Batch dialog may look something like this:

Different format in one cell by formula?

Hi there,
does someone know if it is possible to grab and connect text with the & operator and set different formats (bold, italic...) with a command in the formula?
For example I have different lines in one cell done with the CHAR(10) and want to have the last line in bold format. Is this kind of manipulation possible?

As far as I know, there is no such function.
We may apply different styles in a cell by hand, not by a formula.
I checked that the concatenation of the contents of cells with different styles result with a string in standard style.

How can I keep my text format after pasting a text with a different format?

No matter when and where I start to write some text (whether it is a SImpleText, E-Mails, or anyother application's doc), if I have to cut and paste a text from a different source that is formatted differently than my original text (ie. the one I am already using ), once I have pasted the differently formatted text in my doc, the typeset changes while it continues to type with the same formatt used in the text I just pasted.
How can I continue typing with the same text formatt used before pasting the new text, after pasting the new text, without having to change size, font style etc. Is there a short cut?
What I have been doing to avoid this problem is: I usually type my entire text content (whether it is an E-Mail, or other doc) then, once I am done typing, I paste the text that was cut from a differently formatted document, so that my text remains with the same formatt in its integrity, while the pasted text stands out differently, but it is a bit complex doing that , because I not only have to remember to paste the other text when I am done typing (I run the risk of forgetting to paste the text I need to insert--which has happened already) or I keep struggling with my formatt change after the pasting of the new text, so my document text starts looking like the same text as the one which was just pasted.
Thanks for your time reading this!

(1) First, let's make sure we're talking about the same thing. By "SImpleText, E-Mails" you mean TextEdit and Mail, right?
(2) Some apps (TextEdit, Mail) use the text engine provided by Mac OS X. By and large, these apps will behave in a similar manner. Others (eg, MS Word) use their own text engine, and their behaviour can be quite different. For such an app you need to consult its manual.
(3) In TextEdit, if you want the pasted text to adopt the current style, then use kurt188's tip.
(4) However, if you may want the pasted text to retain its own attributes, while you continue to type in the previous style. I don't know of any shortcut or command that will achieve this. However, you can try to work around it.
(4.1) TextEdit has the Copy Style (⌘⌥C) and Paste Style (⌘⌥V) commands. If you haven't yet used it, ⌘⌥V will insert the default style. So type, paste, ⌘⌥V, then continue typing. If you have used, it will insert whatever style was copied. You can, type, ⌘V, click somewhere before the pasted text, ⌘⌥C, click after the pasted text, ⌘⌥V, and continue typing.
(4.2) Alternatively, type your text. Then type one more character, eg, "x". Then ←, ⌘V, ⇧→, and start typing. The new text should adopt "x"'s format. (This should work in Mail, too. I don't know, because IMHO e-mail should always be plain text.)

Can I have two different libraries for iTunes?

I would like to have two different libraries for iTunes. How can I do it?
Regards.

To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Option key (or Shift key in Windows) when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Mac
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one.

I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

Why can't two different users use Itunes on the same computer with different log ins

Why can't two different users use Itunes on the same computer with different log ins

Pmorgan5672 wrote:

They can, but not at the same time.
If one user left iTunes running, and another user tries to use iTunes from a different Windows user ID, that second user will get an error message. If they really want to use iTunes, they either have to beg the first user to log in and close iTunes, or else they have to restart the computer.
If you are asking the technical reason why, it is something about context switching.

When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in, but always the same album (which I nevr asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I control what is going on and choose the album myself.

When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in aafter about ten minutes, but always the same album (which I never asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I choose a different album myself and control the order and format?

Thank you Winston for a helpful response and for reminding me of something which I found nearly a year ago and then lost (in my mind) because I did not use it. I am grateful for a correct answer but it still only achieves part of what I wanted.
I can now choose my photos, decide how long they stay on screen and choose one of a variety of presentations. Two things I still can't do.
One is to get it to play the photos in the chronological order in which I have carefully set them in an album; it still tends to be random and repetitive. The other is that I cannot get any of them them to saty on screen for more than about 20 seconds. I guess this is all due to the way Apple TV is constructed.
But still thanks, nevertheless.
