How can i make sure all of the files in my music file are on my itunes??

I copied all of my itunes music via usb drive (crappy process) onto my mac in my music folder.. but it too several times due to the small size of the usb drive.. anyways..
When you add music to your music folder.. it doesn't go onto your itunes playlist until you choose that specific song..
can itunes perform a search to make sure you have a copy of every music file on your itunes?

iTunes menu File -> Add to library and select the \Music\iTunes\iTunes music\ folder.
FYI: If you are using iTunes 9, go to \Music\iTunes\iTunes media\ folder.
Make an alias on the desktop of the *Automatically add to iTunes* folder. Then drag songs to the is folder and they will automatically get added to iTunes and moved to the correct folder.

    if you try to install an app that depends on adobe air, you should be prompted to download and install adobe air (unless it's already installed).
    you can download and install directly so you're not prompted by that app, Adobe - Adobe AIR

    You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone.  That's relatively easy.  Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one.  For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

  • How can I make sure the Presenter Display will show up?

    I use the option "use alternate display to view presenter information", and it works fine with my secondary display at home. The presenter information (Presenter Display) with my notes etc. shows up.
    But when I gave a practice talk at my university, the Presenter Display did not show up, although all settings were the same. Back at home with my own secondary display, it works fine again.
    How can I make sure that the Presenter Display will always show up on the secondary display?

    I have a similar problem. Last year I gave a presention at a client's office using my Macbook. I had the presenter display on my Macbook screen and the presentation on their projector.
    A few months ago I upgraded to the latest Macbook Pro 15" (plus there have been upgrades to OS X and Keynote in that time). This time when I tried to run the same set-up my MBP screen went blank. I tried changing settings for Keynote and System prefs with no success. The only way I cuould give the presentation without needing to look at the projector screen was to mirro the displays (and lose the Notes of course). Maybe there is a bug with the latest Keynote?
    OS 10.5.7
    Keynote 5.0.2 (776)

  • How can I make sure under Windows 8 in Explorer to get a real pdf document content file miniature and not the Adobe logo miniature?

    This is not a typical Windows 8 problem, I had the same problem with all my previous Acrobat versions on all previous Windows versions.
    How can I make sure that when consulting pdf files via Windows explorer the pdf file is represented as a genuine miniature of the document content itself and noit just a document icon with Adobe logo?

    Hi Josialaers,
    Turn the 'Preview Pane' ON and you should be able to see the content of the pdf when clicked.
    When 'Show preview handlers in preview pane ON' is checked in 'Folder Options' of Windows Explorer.

    I want to remove my itunes library to a thumb make memory space - how can I make sure I keep all playlists and organizing intact?

    Do you mean a flash drive?  I don't know if I would trust one of those entirely.  Make sure you make a backup.
    Copy the entire iTunes folder to the flash drive.  Start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the library on the flash drive.  If you forget to plug in the flash drive before starting iTunes in the future you will have to do the option start thing again.

    Since Snow-Leo time machine offers an option to verify backups, but I have found that it does not work for external disks attached by USB or FireWire.
    Yes, that's for network backups only. 
    What can I do to make sure that the backups are OK?
    You can tell if the File System (the various directories, catalogs etc.) is ok by repairing your backup drive, per #A5 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    You can "spot check" whether the Time Machine "Star Wars" display seems correct.
    You can do a full system restore to another disk per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions, then start up from it and see if things are there and seem to work.
    You can keep "secondary" backups (always a good idea).  See #27 in the FAQ post for some suggestions.

  • I purchased three albums last week and only two of them were charged.   How can I make sure that the third album gets charged in a timely fashion?

    I purchased three albums last week and only two of them were charged.   How can I make sure that the third album gets charged in a timely fashion?

    Well, thanks for feeling with me, patkosanke ... AND for your wise advice.
    I did followed your advice immediately and erased all the service number as well as S/Ns.
    Can you, however, give me any "direct number" through which I can get hold of someone and request for what you're suggesting?
    I believe I had talked with the person by the name of "Charlie" (I think... I hope I'm correct...) when I was having the same problem with the last device. He was very kind and helpful, though I ended up getting the device that brought the same problem.
    Charlie told me that if I had any more problems I should call him. But I forgot to take down his direct number.
    Or maybe I should call the main office and ask for him. But my memory is questionable as to his name, and besides I don't even know his last name either. There could be more than one "Charlies" in Palm.
    So, if you could somehow email me some direct number (other than the one that keeps on hooking me up with those people in the overseas who are answering the phone only to sympathize with & apologize to me but can only issue a false hope with the SRO#. More than once I was given the promise that the supervisor would call me back within an hour or two but I ended up calling back after I had been left hanging in the air all night long.) where I can talk to someone like I did with Charlie last time who can truly carry out the promise, I would truly appreciate it, patkosanke. ^^
    Thanks

    This is starting to irritate me, so any help would be much appreciated.

  • I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    Yes I know what you mean about it cluttering the thread and for personal emails it is better without the signature. However this relates to sending business emails from an iPhone so I need the signature present on every email.
    I can't find anything in Settings so I was hoping someone may have some knowledge/information/experience regarding this problem.

    shoo: if i had to do that for every file i get  i would go insane, as scott said, post contract: files that they (sub contractor) supply you, presume them ok unless you KNOW otherwise, or a copyright flag pops up contradicting ownership.

  • Hi everybody, i am planning to buy the iphone 4S contract-free, but i need to know if it will work in Qatar, how can i make sure?

    hi
    i am planning to buy an iPhone 4S contract-free, (the one will be released in november) but i want to make sure that it will work in Qatar.
    how can i make sure of that.
    thank you

    The iPhone 4s is a multi carrier 'world' phone, it works on CDMA and GSM based networks.
    Check out what system the carriers in Qatar operate on and check the technical specs of the iPhone 4s.
    The chances are the iPhone 4s will work fine on their network.
    You will need to make sure the carriers in Qatar offer Micro SIM cards to use  in the iPhone 4s. If the carriers don't offer Micro SIM, you will not be able to use the iPhone 4s with a standard SIM (without a bit of SIM card surgery).
    Hope this helps
