File versions for songs to ge the most on my ipod??

I just got my new 8GB nano, which I really like. However, I can only manage to get 200 songs on the play list prior to it becoming full. I have imported all my CD's from the collection into my iTunes, so I can see them all. How can I change the format or what is the best format to have the songs in so that I can get the full 2000 songs on my ipod as per the advertisment?
Anyone got any suggestions or help out there. Thanks

You won't need to reRIP from CD.
Do this...
iTunes prefs -> Advanced -> Importing.
Set set it to 128 kbps AAC.
Select all teh WAV files.
Go to menu Advanced -> Convert selections to AAC.
This will add a new, AAC copy of all the selected files.
Then you can delete the WAV files from iTunes.
Sort on the Kind column.

I am having trouble downloading an extension for flash, despite having the most up to date flash version for Adobe Manager Extension CC. What would cause this to happen?

I am having trouble downloading an extension for flash, despite having the most up to date flash version for Adobe Manager Extension CC. What would cause this to happen? It says I need to have flash 7 or higher. I have the most update flash available according to my browsers.

If you are using Flash Pro CC 2014, please update Extension Manager CC to 7.2.1. Then please confirm whether Flash is shown in the product panel of Extension Manager CC. If not, please refer to Re: Why can't I see InDesign CC in my Extension Manager CC.

Can i have a smaller file size for songs that i put on iphone vs mac

i have ripped a lot of my cds to itunes on my MBA. i used the aac high quality setting.
is there a way that i can upload lower quality/smaller size versions of the songs that i will put on my new iphone ?
Q2: once i rip cd into itunes (on my MBA)... is there an easy way I can later decide to save space and re encode them at 128 instead of 256 (for example).
i notice that you cant just willy nilly copy/delete from the itunes media folder because itunes doesnt seem to 'refresh' with the new files.
thx!

1. the ONLY place i see where you can set the sampling rate,etc is under preferences/general/'when a cd is inserted".... am i missing something?
No.
2. when i want to add an existing mp3 file (from outside the apple realm) , i am using itunes "add to library" and browsing to some mp3 file(s) . it doesnt give me a option to convert it to an m4a format... it seems to just add it to the itunes library without changing the mp3 file .... do i have any option here?
You don't need to convert formats and I would not recommend you do so. You will simply lose quality.
To answer your original question...
can i have a smaller file size for songs that i put on iphone vs mac
If you want smaller files on the iPhone, see my post above which converts them when syncing to theiPhone.
If you really want to convert when adding songs to iTunes...
iTunes prefs > General - Import settings as you want.
Hold Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows) and choose File > Create New Version > Convert AAC (or what your settings are in previous step).
This will convert and add the file instead of adding the file then converting and having 2 of the same song in iTunes.

Flash player 11.5.502.149 will not install, states that the version of flash is not the most current

I'm using the runtime (install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe) install for Flash 11.5.502.149 which I just downloaded. I'm trying to install it on a Windows 7 64bit system. When I try to run it the install tells me that the version of flash is not the most current and I should download the most recent version. Accorsing to the site, this is the most recent version. Any thoughts?
Thaks,
Keith

By the time I saw this, the OS was corrupt. This isn't going to help me right npw. One very important item, though, for those of us who use the runtime to install, it needs to be modified so that it doesn't look for a newer version of the install before it actually installs. We use Altiris to push this out to our folks and that check causes the installation process to stop. My guess is that it is waiting for a response which will never occur since it is running in a hidden window. I agree that it needs to be updated, but this method is causing significant issues. This was the same problem I found when trying to install an older version of Flash that didn't have the issues with Sysprep that later ones did.
That said, is there a switch for the install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe that will force it to run without checking first? The -install doesn't stop the checking.
Thanks,
Keith

I suggest you do one of two things:
1. Upgrade to Office 2011 for OS X.
2. Try the freeware, Libre Office.

I am looking for information on iPad and iPhone apps and Mac software that are "top of the line" for academic research. The most current and comprehensive information I have found is dated July 2010.

PogoPossum,
My area of interest is in business and economic history. There is a considerable amount of reading and charting. Until the iPad hit the streets, I only considered stacks of books, journals, and downloaded documents, all marked up with highlighters, underlines, and marginal notes.
Most of my PC based work involved MS Office, Endnote, and MS OneNote.
What I would like to do with the iPad and MacBook are the same things (Office, Endnote, OneNote) and add the ability to read and markup all forms of printed materials from books to pdf to webpages.
I cut my teeth on an iPod Touch and have tried a lot of the note taking and reading apps. Without a camera the standard iPod Notes works for short quick notes and long think pieces. I just emailed the content and downloaded the stuff to my PC. Obviously, I do not want to continue at this "non-integrated" level of work.
Does this help?

are you referring to the audio meters panel? im on windows, and i can right click the meters panel and get options for "dynamic peaks". there are audio effects, from the effects panel if thats what you are looking for? i have one named "Dynamics" as well as several compressors.

Id3 tags for songs already on the ipod

I have properly edited my id3 tags for songs already on the ipod. How can I update the tags for the same music that is on my PC???

So, any idea on how to get the tags updated in the Library?
Yes. Repeat your edits on the songs in the Library.
In the future, don't edit stuff directly on the iPod. Edit it in iTunes and then sync the iPod to copy the changes to it.

My files on creative cloud are not the most recent versions

Today and over the last few days I've been saving files from my office computer to my creative cloud so I can work on them at home, but when I get home the files are either not showing or are not the current save.
Is there a way to force dump cache or something like that?

Are you saving the files using Upload and Replace from the Files page at https://creative.adobe.com/files, or are you saving the files (and changes) in the Creative Cloud Files folder on your computer and letting the file sync upload the files and changes? (Either way will work just trying to understand your workflow).
First lets confirm the newest changes are being saved to the Creative Cloud files storage. When you use Replace from the Files page, or save the file in the Creative Cloud Files folder, a new version is created. You can confirm the latest version is saved by first going to the Files page in the browser and then clicking on the changed file to view its page. By default Details are displayed but you can switch to Activity. You should then see that there are versions, and that Current Version the correct version.
Please confirm that the correct (latest) versions are synced up on your office computer. If not lets figure out why. If the correct versions are synced up then we can see what is happening on your home computer.

Upgrading a 3-node Hyper-V clusters storage for £10k and getting the most bang for our money.

Hi all, looking for some discussion and advice on a few questions I have regarding storage for our next cluster upgrade cycle.
Our current system for a bit of background:
3x Clustered Hyper-V Servers running Server 2008 R2 (72TB Ram, dual cpu etc...)
1x Dell MD3220i iSCSI with dual 1GB connections to each server (24x 146GB 15k SAS drives in RAID 10) - Tier 1 storage
1x Dell MD1200 Expansion Array with 12x 2TB 7.2K drives in RAID 10 - Tier 2 storage, large vm's, files etc...
~25 VM's running all manner of workloads, SQL, Exchange, WSUS, Linux web servers etc....
1x DPM 2012 SP1 Backup server with its own storage.
Reasons for upgrading:
Storage though put is becoming an issue as we only get around 125MB/s over the dual 1GB iSCSI connections to each physical server. (tried everything under the sun to improve bandwidth but I suspect the MD3220i Raid is the bottleneck here.
Backup times for vm's (once every night) is now in the 5-6 hours range.
Storage performance during backups and large file syncronisations (DPM)
Tier 1 storage is running out of capacity and we would like to build in more IOPS for future expansion.
Tier 2 storage is massively underused (6tb of 12tb Raid 10 space)
Migrating to 10GB server links.
Total budget for the upgrade is in the region of £10k so I have to make sure we get absolutely the most bang for our buck.
Current Plan:
Upgrade the cluster to Server 2012 R2
Install a dual port 10GB NIC team in each server and virtualize cluster, live migration, vm and management traffic (with QoS of course)
Purchase a new JBOD SAS array and leverage the new Storage Spaces and SSD caching/tiering capabilities. Use our existing 2TB drives for capacity and purchase sufficient SSD's to replace the 15k SAS disks.
On to the questions:
Is it supported to use storage spaces directly connected to a Hyper-V cluster? I have seen that for our setup we are on the verge of requiring a separate SOFS for storage but the extra costs and complexity are out of our reach. (RDMA, extra 10GB NIC's
etc...)
When using a storage space in a cluster, I have seen various articles suggesting that each csv will be active/passive within the cluster. Causing redirected IO for all cluster nodes not currently active?
If CSV's are active/passive its suggested that you should have a csv for each node in your cluster? How in production do you balance vm's accross 3 CSV's without manually moving them to keep 1/3 of load on each csv? Ideally I would like just
a single CSV active/active for all vm's to sit on. (ease of management etc...)
If the CSV is active/active am I correct in assuming that DPM will backup vm's without causing any re-directed IO?
Will DPM backups of VM's be incremental in terms of data transferred from the cluster to the backup server?
Thanks in advance for anyone who can be bothered to read through all that and help me out! I'm sure there are more questions I've forgotten but those will certainly get us started.
Also lastly, does anyone else have a better suggestion for how we should proceed?
Thanks

1) You can use direct connection to SAS with a 3-node cluster of course (4-node, 5-node etc). Sure it would be much faster then running with an additional SoFS layer (with SAS fed directly to your Hyper-V cluster nodes all reads and writes would be local
travelling down the SAS fabric and with SoFS layer added you'll have the same amount of I/Os targeting SAS + Ethernet with its huge compared to SAS latency sitting in between a requestor and your data residing on SAS spindles, I/Os overwrapped into SMB-over-TCP-over-IP-over-Etherent
requests at the hypervisor-SoFS layers). Reason why SoFS is recommended - final SoFS-based solution would be cheaper as SAS-only is a pain to scale beyond basic 2-node configs. Instead of getting SAS switches, adding redundant SAS controllers to every hypervisor
node and / or looking for expensive multi-port SAS JBODs you'll have a pair (at least) of SoFS boxes doing a file level proxy in front of a SAS-controlled back end. So you'll compromise performance in favor of cost. See:
http://davidzi.com/windows-server-2012/hyper-v-and-scale-out-file-cluster-home-lab-design/
Used interconnect diagram within this design would actually scale beyond 2 hosts. But you'll have to get a SAS switch (actually at least two of them for redundancy as you don't want any component to become a single point of failure, don't you?)
2) With 2012 R2 all I/O from a multiple hypervisor nodes is done thru the storage fabric (in your case that's SAS) and only metadata updates would be done thru the coordinator node and using Ethernet connectivity. Redirected I/O would be used in a two cases
only a) no SAS connectivity from the hypervisor node (but Ethernet one is still present) and b) broken-by-implementation backup software would keep access to CSV using snapshot mechanism for too long. In a nutshell: you'll be fine :) See for references:
http://www.petri.co.il/redirected-io-windows-server-2012r2-cluster-shared-volumes.htm
http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=12844
3) These are independent things. CSV is not active/passive (see 2) so basically with an interconnection design you'll be using there's virtually no point to having one-CSV-per-hypervisor. There are cases when you'd still probably do this. For example if
you'd have all-flash and combined spindle/flash LUNs and you know for sure you want some VMs to sit on flash and others (no so I/O hungry) to stay within "spinning rust". One more case is many-node cluster. With it multiple nodes basically fight for a single
LUN and a lot of time is wasted for SCSI reservation conflicts resove (ODX has no reservation offload like VAAI has so even if ODX is present its not going to help). Again it's a place where SoFS "helps" as having intermediate proxy level turns block I/O into
file I/O triggering SCSI reservation conflicts for a two SoFS nodes only instead of an evey node in a hypervisor cluster. One more good example is when you'll have a mix of a local I/O (SAS) and Ethernet with a Virtual SAN products. Virtual SAN runs directly
as part of the hypervisor and emulates high performance SAN using cheap DAS. To increase performance it DOES make sense to create a concept of a "local LUN" (and thus "local CSV") as reads targeting this LUN/CSV would be passed down the local storage
stack instead of hitting the wire (Ethernet) and going to partner hypervisor nodes to fetch the VM data. See:
http://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-native-san-on-two-physical-servers
http://www.starwindsoftware.com/sw-configuring-ha-shared-storage-on-scale-out-file-servers
(feeding basically DAS to Hyper-V and SoFS to avoid expensive SAS JBOD and SAS spindles). The same thing as VMware is doing with their VSAN on vSphere. But again that's NOT your case so it DOES NOT make sense to keep many CSVs with only 3 nodes present or
SoFS possibly used.
4) DPM is going to put your cluster in redirected mode for a very short period of time. Microsoft says NEVER. See:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh758090.aspx
Direct and Redirect I/O
Each Hyper-V host has a direct path (direct I/O) to the CSV storage Logical Unit Number (LUN). However, in Windows Server 2008 R2 there are a couple of limitations:
For some actions, including DPM backup, the CSV coordinator takes control of the volume and uses redirected instead of direct I/O. With redirection, storage operations are no longer through a host’s direct SAN connection, but are instead routed
through the CSV coordinator. This has a direct impact on performance.
CSV backup is serialized, so that only one virtual machine on a CSV is backed up at a time.
In Windows Server 2012, these limitations were removed:
Redirection is no longer used.
CSV backup is now parallel and not serialized.
5) Yes, VSS and CBT would be used so data would be incremental after first initial "seed" backup. See:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff399619.aspx
http://itsalllegit.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/dpm-2012-sp1-manually-copy-large-volume-to-secondary-dpm-server/
I'd look at some other options. There are few good discussion you may want to read. See:
http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1209963

Multiple artworks for songs of a the same album

What I have are multiple icons of the same for each song of a particular album, e.g. if I have 10 songs of an album I might have 5 pieces of the same album artwork for every 2 songs. I'm wanting to link the songs all together for a particular album under one icon artwork. How is this done? Furthermore, if I were to choose 20 songs to be linked together under a particular piece of artwork, how would this be done? Finally, in the Info on any particular song, what does the checkbox 'Part of a Compilation' actually refer to?

*Finally, in the Info on any particular song, what does the checkbox 'Part of a Compilation' actually refer to?*
It refers to the song in question and the album it's from. In the Gracenote database the album is referenced as a compilation (either of songs by different artists that are all on one album or that the songs are all from a best of or greatest hits type album). Personally I wouldn't regard single artist Greatest Hits or Best of albums as compilations but many are marked as such in Gracenote.
