How can I copy keyword list to a new library

I'm a keyword fanatic. Keywords are my most favorite feature of the product. It's the reason I use iPhoto in the first place. I recently created a new iPhoto v6 library and can see that the keyword list did not get migrated. Is there a way to do this? Can I export and import the keyword list? Thanks.

Keywords are kept in the main database file and when you create a new library, you create a new database.
The only way I can think of to what you want is to select a single pic and give it ALL the keywords, then use iPhoto Library Manager to move that pic from the old library to the new one. iplm is the only way to move pics and metadata between libraries while using v6. (hmm, another reason to upgrade.)
And, as I mentioned in my other post, if you're a "keyword fanatic" then check out Keyword Manager

How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone?

How can I copy mp3 files from my Itunes library to an SD card for use in a non-apple phone? I can physically copy the tunes as mp3's but the phone does not seem to be able to play all of them. Do I need to copy an entire album or can I just pick & choose individual songs? The phone is question is an LG running who knows what for an operating system.

AAC is Advanced Audio Coding. Basically it's a format that sounds better than MP3 but doesn't take up as much space as a lossless format (like you'd have on a CD). More than likely you've had that encoding turned on when you ripped your music into itunes (it's the default encoder). Therefore your LG phone won't play them.
You need to turn off the AAC format by going to the iTunes menu, Preferences, General (at the top), then clicking the "Import Preferences" button. Change the AAC Encoder to MP3 Encoder. After that you'll have to make MP3 copies of your songs by right clicking them and selecting "Create MP3 Version." You'll get a copy of the song that should transfer to your SD card and have MP3 encoding. Hopefully your phone will play that.

How can I copy current board content into new board?

Hi there.
how can I copy current board content into new board?

Hi-
Can I drag it to the external drive or perhaps just the songs, then copy/drag them to my new computer ?
Pretty much, Yes.
If you wish to keep the formatting, notes, ratings, etc. that are with the library, you should allow the iTunes software to "discover" the library.
If the iTunes Library from one machine is placed on an external drive, the iTunes software on the other machine can be directed to the library of the external drive when connected.
Allowing "Copy to Home folder/music" will provide for copying of the library to the new machine.
Alternatively, if the library is loaded onto an iPod, the iPod can be used to transfer the music.

How can I export aperture pictures to a new library?

How can I export aperture pictures to a new library? I wan to create a new aperture library at an exernal drive so that I can reduce the size of the current library in the internal drive. Thank you for letting me know.

"File➞Export➞ ... as new Library " will create a new Library from the selection.
The preferred method for making the Library on your system drive smaller is to change some of the Image's Originals from Managed (= stored inside the Library) to Referenced (= stored outside the Library, often on external drives). There are so many advantages to this that it can be recommended without question. Unless you have specific reasons for splitting your Library into two Libraries (security concerns are one of the very few reasons), you should keep your Library on your system drive with some Image's Originals Managed, and the rest Referenced to an external drive.
Read up about these options in the User Manual (scroll down).

How can I copy a list of email address into a group folder in contacts?

I have a list of all the email addresses of my tennis club members. How can I copy that into a group address. At the moment I have to find each one and drag it into the folder, but I am sure there must be an easier way. Does anyone know what that is?
Loftyjs

I'm glad you figured it out. I was thrown off by literally interpreting the term "list" I guess
In truth, a "mailing list" of multiple recipients, when applied to a particular email message is nothing more than a "comma de-limited list" of the addresses. Some mail clients add < > on either end of the individual addresses
[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],etc.
<[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,<[email protected]>,etc.
in the old days, we would just keep a text file an add to the end as needed.
lists are commonly used as 'Mini-databases' in Adobe(Macromedia) Director, my everyday tool for years. A list of lists, then becomes a bigger database as does a list of a (list of lists), and so on
Too much information, methinks

How can I copy GarageBand projects to a new iPad?

I recently got a new iPad Air 2 running 8.1.1 and I wanted to transfer GarageBand projects from my old iPad 3 running 8.1.2 to my new device. I found this harder than I expected.
You'd think the help instructions I found at http://help.apple.com/garageband/ipad/1.0/index.html#chsec12c387 would be sufficient, but some of the steps didn't work for me. Was it because I was running Windows on my partnered PC rather than a Mac? What this help link doesn't tell you is that, as difficult as it is for me now to navigate around and find my devices after recent changes to iTunes, that all that's available for File Sharing are GarageBand projects that have already been Exported to iTunes. However, then I ran into problems with these instructions "Send a GarageBand Song to iTunes". Step 1- the only place I see My Songs on my old iPad is at the edit screen of a project. When I hit My Songs, it shuts down that recording session and switches to a list of songs, but there is no Export Song button, just a plus sign in the upper left. Hitting the plus doesn't get me to " Export Song button", it gets me to "Create New Song" or " Copy From iTunes File Sharing". It took me a long time to figure out I had to Select a song first, then the icons in the upper left changed and one icon gave me a way to upload to iTunes. Not at all like the help instructions, but at least I could get a project to File Sharing. (or Dropbox) However, if I selected more than one project, the Upload button grayed out. I had 40 projects to transfer, so I wanted to find a solution that would be better than this.
I looked at Re: Import a proyect from garage band to ipad and It is really unacceptable that I cannot transfer my garageband format songs from iPad to iTunes for windows and then add them to my new iPad. Any ideas? but they weren't matching up to my problem. However, it was nice to find out about iFun http://www.i-funbox.com/ , which looks more understandable than iTune File Sharing.
What I eventually discovered was I could select multiple GB projects on the old iPad, and still have the Upload to iCloud icon available in the upper left. All my remaining GB projects went to iCloud in one step and eventually they started to appear in GB on my new iPad Air, except that I had to buy some more iCloud storage.
Is this really the only way to move many GB projects to a new iPad?

Hello marcia999,
This can be done through the Filesharing pane in iTunes (when the iPad is connected).
iMovie for iOS (iPad): Import from iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3239
If you created a project or trailer on an iOS device (such as iPad or iPhone) and sent the project to iTunes, you can then import the project to another compatible device through iTunes.
Import a project or trailer from iTunes
Connect your device to your computer, then open iTunes on your computer.After a moment, your device appears in iTunes, below Devices on the left.
Select the device, then click Apps at the top of the iTunes window.
Select iMovie in the Apps list below File Sharing (you may need to scroll to see it).
Click Add below the iMovie Documents pane; in the window that appears, navigate to the file you want to add.
Select the file, then click Open to copy the file to your device.The file appears in the iMovie Documents pane when copying is complete.
Open iMovie on your device; if you’re not in projects view, tap the My Projects button in the upper-left corner above the viewer.
Tap the Import button at the bottom of the screen, then tap the name of the project you want to import.When the import is complete, the project opens and can be edited like any other project.

Allen

How can I copy music from PC to iTunes Library?

I am trying to copy some music files I copied from original CDs to a pendrive since I do not have a Mac DVD player. I tried by selecting files from Finder and doing drag-and-drop into iTunes Library, but it did not work. So, what can I do?
Thanks!

Let me get this straight. You took files ripped on a PC to a pen drive and tried dragging them to the iTunes library window? That should work, but some things will depend upon the format of the files. I would create an empty playlist window and drag the files to it. It is possible the files either never had or somehow lost their tag information and are not ending up in the library where you expect them to be. What format files are these? WAV doesn't preserve labels,

How can I copy the channels to a new group, so they would have the same length (in time)?

Hi,
I have several groups with channels of different lengths (time t). I want to make a new group containing the required channels. I did this in Diadem 2012 test version with Call Data.Root and it works. Now I am trying to do this in Diadem 10, but I've read that I need Data API which is not available for Diadem 10. So, could someone just give a sample code? If it's necessary I can post my sample code written in Diadem 2012.
Thanks in advance!

Hey,
is THIS maybe what you are looking for?

How can I sync my ipod to my new library without losing all the pictures?

Can't copy from Home Sharing to new library on an authorized computer.

Hi,
I'm trying to copy my itunes library via home sharing from my old PC to my Macbook pro. Both computers are Authorized. I've de-authorized and re-authorized the destination computer (the Mac) a couple of times. I was able to successfully transfer just over half of the songs. The error message i get is: _ could not be copied because the computer is not authorized. (which it is)
Any help would be appreciated.
thank you,
TL

i am interested in this solution as well... i never de-authorized or re-authorized, just tried doing the same thing and it won't let me copy the music from one to another?!? my son is using my old dell laptop and he wants music off of my macbook and his mom's laptop... but we can't seem to get the music to transfer without copying the folder onto an external and then letting him copy it onto his laptop?!?!
that just defeats the whole purpose of having the SHARING feature???

How can I copy a movie through homesharing

How can I copy a movie with the new itunes through homesharing?

I don't think you can truly "copy" anything via homesharing. Homesharing just lets you "borrow" (stream) the movie from another device ONLY if you remain on the same wifi while you are streaming it. As soon as you leave that wifi's range, you won't be able to see it anymore.
