HELP New user, importing Music from library ( WMA )

I am a new user to Itunes ( bit late i know ).
I need to move my music ( my music folder ) into itunes.
I have over 40Gb of music. If i import music folder through Itunes using the file > Import folder menu, i am lead to belive that firstly all my music will need to be converted to Mp3. this is not a problem althouigh i am sure it will take a long time.
My main worry is that when converting the music into itunes the origional my music folder will stay where it is therefore doubling up my music to over 80Gb and therefore will not fit on my hard drives.
i tried to cut and paste my music files into the itunes music folder within my music although it doesnt appear in my library???
Any help appreciated!!!!
Many thanks.
Dell PC Windows XP

Moving files into the iTunes library doesn't comvert them to MP3.
iTunes can only use unprotected WMA files. If you are trying to add protected WMA songs, they won't go into the iTunes library.
You can leave all the music files where they are. iTunes will only copy them to the iTunes folder if you have that option checked.
Here are some articles that may help

ITunes preferences won't save. Please help new user.

If anyone can help me with this I'd be so grateful. I've looked through the other advice I can find on this forum, and on other sites, and have tried the solutions I've found suggested, but nothing's worked so far.
I've tried deleting the preferences files and rebuilding them several times. I've tried reinstalling iTunes several times, too. I've also tried launching iTunes from a different user account, created for the purpose. But I can't get my preferences to save. If I can't set iTunes up the way I'd like it, this could reverse my decision to buy an iPod. I'm not great with computers, and it's driving me to distraction. Any and all advice v gratefully received !

Thanks for the reply!!!
The instructions I used were off this Apple Support site...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
I get both options to choose as well as create. I used choose when I did mine and it worked.
I did copy her entire itunes library.
This is exactly what is in the folder that I copied...
(folders)
Automatically add to itunes
Downloads
Mobile Applications
Movies
Music
Ringtones
Voice Memos
(XML Document)
Library
I do not see a .itl file anywhere.
I just looked on my file I copied that worked on my user name and I have (3) Itunes Database Files on it.
Thanks so much for the help!!!

Step By Step Instructions !!!! HELP NEW USER!

Step by step tutorial on how to create a project from A to Z. I am a new user, and i am tired of all the tutorials NI provides, they all talk about creating some bullshit waveform or making some easy calculator vi. They never talk about the real stuff, example, how to start a project, create your vi, compiling or putting together all the vi's, compile everything together and than creating an EXE. Holly shit that's all i am asking for is an idiots guide is it that hard for NI to make ! Can anyone out there direct to something to figure this out maybe a book, article, web page something!!! And no thank you i don't need some sales guy calling me trying to sell NIN bullshit training classes, i have been to them and all the instructor could talk about is creating a ridicolous sine wave genarator (WoW)

I am sure NI would be very happy to hear about any issues with the LabVIEW help that could be confusing to new users.
Here's a link to the LabVIEW help on organizing an managing projects:
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361D-01/TOC16.htm
Have you read it and do you still have problems? What was not clear?

You should also be aware that you cannot buit an application using LabVIEW base or full.
You need LabVIEW professional or you need to purchase the application builder.
Genci wrote:
...tired .. bullshit ... Holly shit ...idiots ...bullshit ..ridicolous ...
These are all non-techical terms and not very descriptive in the context of LabVIEW. Could you be a bit more specific on what kind of problems you encountered?
It would also be important to know your programming background? Are you experienced in any other programming environment? Is labVIEW your first attempt at programming? Are you familiar with general programming terms? Are you trying to program for personal enjoyment, for school, or as part of a job. If your employer forces you to switch to LabVIEW, maybe he could send you to some NI classes.
What is your LabVIEW version?
As anything, there is always an initial hurdle that needs to be overcome before becoming familiar in a new environment. Fortunately, this threshold is very low in the case of LabVIEW and you should be up and running after a couple of hours. Mastery takes a bit longer, of course.
Your best bet is to ask a more specific question here in the forum whenever you get stuck. Good luck and enjoy the ride.

Oracle Help (New user)

Hi, im a new user to oracle express edition and have been given a task at university to complete.
Iv tried searching for tutorials myself but i either A cannot find the ones i need, or B dont understand them,
my task is:
A soft drinks company based in Cramlington require an individual to undertake a data analysis project. The company would like you to produce a prototype of the system, designed as an oracle database system.
The company would like to record sales data. The sales can be through vending machines or shop outlets; as a guide, the prototype needs to record where the items have been sold (vending or shop), details about the items as the company produces a range of soft drinks, prices etc. The region the items are sold in is important as the company would like to produce reports by region to compare sales figures. The new system will be used to make management decisions, such as where to increase marketing, whether items should be withdrawn from the market etc. Sales reports should be based on monthly figures.
Tasks
The database, SQL, forms, reports and all other applications you build for the system should be created in Oracle Express Edition, and submitted on CD-ROM.
The username and password for the DBA in your system should be as used in the lab, as follows:
Username: hecomputing
Password: ramdrive
1.     You are to create the tables in Oracle Express Edition and populate the tables with sample sales data. Take into consideration the requirements detailed above. However remember this is a guide and by no means a full list of data that should be recorded by the system. It is expected that you will produce a third normal form structure and submit this with your application.
2.     Create all forms for data entry. No data should be entered through the table view by the user; the data should be entered via a form.
3.     Create all forms to view, edit and delete data.
4.     Create a drill-down form for item and sales data as a minimum.
5.     Implement triggers to demonstrate auditing, which as a minimum should track
•     Insertion of new data
•     Deletion of existing data
•     Modification of existing data
6.     Implement stored procedures
7.     Provide the user with a customised, informative message if an error is encountered, by implementing Handling Exceptions.
8.     Create queries for data manipulation. All queries should be stored as SQL.
9.     Create reports for sales analysis, based on monthly figures. As a minimum you must create a report for sales per item on a monthly basis, sales per month via each sales type (shop, vending machine) which should also be grouped by region.
10.     Create two users that are not database administrators; user1 password1, user2 password2. Demonstrate user administration, roles, privileges, security and auditing.
11.     You are to informally demonstrate your prototype on the 20th May 2007, in the timeslot you have been allocated. Please see your tutor or Blackboard to confirm your timeslot. All demonstrations will take place between 12:00pm and 5pm on that day.
Can anyone please steer me towards a good set of tutorials that can help me complete the above task.
thanks

Hi,
You can download and study the 'Store' application at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/packaged_apps.html#STORE which does many of the things you need. If you 'hack' the app you'll be well on your way.

Need publishing error help - new user.

I am new to the mac world having just purchased a MacBook, signed up with a mac account, and am trying to test load a very simple 2 page web site. I continue to get publishing errors (different file names sometimes appear when I retry to publish). Nothing shows up on my idisk, so nothing is getting through. I have tried to publish about a dozen times over the last couple of days. I note others have had similar errors. Since space is not an issue on my idisk and the site is so small, I'm not sure what to try next. Any ideas? Thanks.<

Dr. B.. this fixed about 90% of the publishing errors for me.
Hope this helps...

“iDisk Quota Error” fix
A. Quit iWeb, if it is open. Select Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu.
Then type (or copy and paste) ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb into
the field and click Go. You should now see a file named, Domain.
(or you could just do it manually by opening the hard disk, open the Users folder, then open the Folder with your user name on it, open the Library folder, open the application support folder, open the iweb folder, and then you should be looking at the DOMAIN file.)
This is a Mac OSX package file. Note: A package is a relatively common type of document in Mac OSX; it is essentially a sealed folder. It contains individual items, but cannot be opened in the same manner as a folder.
B. To open the package, hold the Control Key and click on the Domain package file. Note: If you have a two-button mouse, this step can be accomplished by right-clicking the Domain package file.
C. Select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu that appears.
D. A new window will appear containing a folder named Contents.
E. Open the Contents folder. Here you will see one, and possibly two files named assets.<membername>.groups.<groupname>.plist or assets.<membername>.plist, where <membername> and <groupname> correspond to your .Mac member name and .Mac Group name. Note: Your .Mac member name is the first part of your .Mac email address, before "@mac.com."
NOTE FROM ME... I didn’t find these files in the Contents folder, I found
them when I opened the Domain File itself. Whatever.. when you find one,
or maybe both of these files, delete them. (some people have both, some
have one)
F. If you have either or both of these files, move them to the trash. Then close
the Contents window.
G. Relaunch iWeb and try publishing again.

New MacBook Pro - Move Music?

Hello,
I just recently bought my first macbook pro (yay), however i'm having trouble moving files.
The main reason i even use a laptop is for music - which i keep stored on an external drive.
I like the reassurance that, should, my laptop break i have still have all my albums.
However, i am unable to move files from the itunes folder where they automatically save, to the external.
When i try to drag and drop, nothing happens. i just get a large " X ".
Is there a way for me to fix or work around this?
i really don't wanna have to save all my music files on the laptop memory! that would suck.
Would really appreciate any help you could give, otherwise i'll just call apple tomorrow after work.
Thank you!! : )

FYI
Backing up offloaded files:
You can automatically backup your internal and external drives to a single Time Machine disk.
Simply plug in the Time Machine disk and then
 > System Preferences > Time Machine > Options… > Remove the offload HD name from the exclusions list.
Now both your system disk and your external offload disk will be backed up onto your Time Machine disk.
Do not offload live files onto a Time Machine disk. If this backup disk crashes you would lose the live data on it.

Need help with Video Categories Movies, Music Videos, ETC.

Is there anyway to put ripped videos into other categories besides just Movies? I would like to put some of them under Music Videos, is that possible?

Neither Quicktime Pro or iTunes have the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
Videora iPod Converter seems to be popular amongst Windows users, although I've read that you might get mixed results using it.
