Filename creation options like AudioGrabber

When I rip a Cd in I-Tunes to MP3, two folders are automatically created, one with the name of the artist, and a sub-folder with the name of the album. In this sub-folder I can find the filename.
Well, as a professional DJ, I do not like to organize my folders this way. I prefer to have one only main folder with all my MP3 tracks or have some folders named by genre. I like to have the filename as: Artist name - Track name. This does not occur when you rip with I-Tunes, and so you need to use Tag & Rename in order to rename the file (s).
I would like to suggest a feature found in AudioGraber, where in Options, you can create filenames from Artist name and Track name or create a Directory for Artist and a Sub-Directory for album.
I love I-Tunes !
I would be very happy with comments.

I had the same problem and didn't find an option to fix it. It's archaic and bad design to import tunes into folders that are forcibly created with the names of the artist and album from MP3 ID tags that are usually incorrect, anyway. Worse, it then only names the actual tune file without the artist in it. Amazing!!!
If iTunes were the ultimate product that did anything anyone ever needed, there then might be the weakest of arguments for not providing additional customization and options. But, since no software has or ever will be THAT good, it's just bad design!
Working around iTunes' lack of file management:
If you have a more capable song file management software like MusicMatch, Windows Media Player, or any of the many other such products, I suggest you do your tune management through those programs, then run iTunes ONLY to load iPods or any other functions EXCEPT importing music.
If you buy from the Apple store, then after downloading it, exit iTunes, bring up your system file explorer, move the files out of the stupid folders they were loaded into, rename them, then run the other softwares to fix up the library. MusicMatch has a wonderfully powerful 2-way interface to name you song files after the ID tags in any order you want or vice versa (fill tage from filename).
In short, despite it's wonderfully simple interface with its non-existent file management, I suggest NOT using iTunes unless absolutely necessary to load an iPod.
iTunes is currently at version 6. Pehaps by version 10, they'll get it more usable for anyone with more than the most simplistic needs.

  • Most of the time when i click my magic mouse on an item it gives me options like back, open new page, etc.

    When I try to use my magic mouse, most of the time it won't open an item but instead will give me options like: back, open new page, open link in new window, and I am actually on top of for instance, the comment field in facebook...It takes several attempts of clicking off the entire page to get it to just open the link or respond appropriately...

    the mouse performs a right click instead of a left click. Check your mouse preferences in the system settings.

  • HT2534 When I try to set up an Apple ID, it's asking for a credit card, and there is no "None" option, like this page suggests. How can I bypass this? This iPad is for a younger child who has no credit card, and will not need to make any purchases.

  • I just restarted my mac then suddenly when it boots,disk utility came and says different option like repair disk, get help, reinstall OSX and I tried to click disk repair but it says that I am um able to repair the disk

    i just restarted my mac then suddenly when it boots,disk utility came and says different option like repair disk, get help, reinstall OSX and I tried to click disk repair but it says that I am um able to repair the disk

    It sounds like your hard drive either has a software problem that Disk Utility cannot fix or that the HD has failed (mechanically).
    Your Mac may have booted either to your recovery partition or to internet recovery in an attempt to repair the drive- I can't tell from your post.
    I'll assume that it was the recovery partition.
    Try to boot into internet recovery (hold down option command R at restart), and see if you can repair your HD with Disk Utility. You should also repair permissions while you're there.
    If that doesn't work, try to boot into single user mode (restart, hold down ⌘S until you see a black screen with white text) and repair your hard drive. Here's a reference with directions: Repair Your Hard Disk in Single User Mode | Everything Macintosh
    If that doesn't work you have a few options:
    If your mac originally came with installation disks, you can try to boot from the installation disk and then see if you can repair the HD.
    There is a small chance that Techtool Pro 7  will be able to repair your HD if Disk Utility can't.
    If none of that works then your HD has probably failed and will need to be replaced, which is not too difficult to do yourself if you can use a screwdriver.

  • Does Seeburger's SFTP adapter support dynamic filename creation

    Hi all,
    Does the SFTP adapter support dynamic filename creation.
    If yes, then do we have to use UDF's and are there any specific settings that have to be done in the SFTP communication channel.
    Please provide a blog which helps in the configuration process of the above case.
    thanks,

    Dynamic Creation of File using counter in Seeburger Variable:
    1. Configuration Needed in the Communication Channel:
    The process of dynamic creation of files can be done we have to select the following checkbox in the receiver channel:
    Dynamic Attribute in receiver Channel:
    Import the following modules:
    Localejbs/Seeburger/solution/sftp
    Localejbs/Seeburger/AttribMapper
    Localejbs/ModuleProcessorExitBean
    Enter  the desired file naming convention:
    Use the Parameter GetCounter("ID") to the place where the counter is expected to come.
    2. Configuration Needed in the SeeBurger Workbench:
    If the J2EE server is listening on a port different from 50000 (which is the standard for the SAP client 000), the port number must be configured:
    Login into the seeburger workbench using the URL
    http://<localhost>:<port number>/seeburger/index.html
    Select Property Store.
    Create or edit the following property:
    Parameter
    Value
    Namespace
    http://seeburger.com/xi/SeeFunctions
    Key
    provider.servlet.server
    Value
    http://localhost:50000/ (where the port number 50000 must be set
    accordingly to the J2EE server configuration).
    Note: The configured value (server URL) has to end with a slash (/). Otherwise,
    SeeFunctions will not work correctly.
    If we need to start the counter from any specific value , it can be configured in the SeeBurger workbench, this value can be maintained in Mapping Variables :

  • HT1918 i have just made my apple id.i have made this for itunes.after making my account i have problen with the review payment information as i do not use any credit cards and there is no option like NONE in review payment information. what should i do no

    How did you create the account ? If you followed the instructions on this page when creating it then you should have got the 'none' option : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    e.g. on a computer's iTunes, if currently signed into an account then you logged out of it, and you then found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price' :
    And then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
    When I tried that process to create an account a few days ago I got the 'none' option on the payment details screen.
    If you didn't use that process then you will need to create a new account using it (the instructions won't work with an existing account).
