How can I manually direct the path I want into my PC folders???

on my laptop, my company has what's called a "Personal Profile" for me. I have a limited profile space that I can take up. My Personal Profile space is everything in "My Documents" PLUS everything in my "Application Data". When I exceed this "profile space" I can't update my roaming profile, can't shut my computer down, etc.
Ok, so here's the situation.
I just got an iPad. I downloaded iTunes and installed in on my laptop for sync purposes. When I added all my songs to my iTunes library (from my PC at home) it automatically dumped these in "MY Music" under "My Documents" and I went WAY over my profile space maximum. I easily remedied this by going into the preferences in iTunes and changing the default folder location for iTunes media files.
However, "album art" is (apparently) a different folder altogether and is not associated with the media files within iTunes. iTunes AUTOMATICALLY created a folder in "My Music" called iTunes. In that folder is another folder called "Album Art". That folder is still causing me problems with my profile space. As I mentioned, all of my iTunes media has been moved and so I'm cool there. So, I went in and deleted the folder "Album Art" under "My Music". Solved the problem. But then, when I fired up iTunes, of course, all of my album art was blank. iTunes automatically updated and automatically RE_CREATED the file called "Album Artwork" under "My Music", so now I'm back over my profile limit again.
I can not find anywhere in iTunes that allows me to specify my path or location for Album Art. If I move or delete the file, iTunes automatically re-creates it.
What can I do?

You only posted an hour & a half ago, and this is a user-to-user board. You gotta wait until someone happens along who knows the answer.
Which if you think about it, silence is better than "taking a stab" and possibly giving bad advice!
Anyhoo. You need to move your itunes database to the other folder.
THen the artwork folders will follow.
This is the file to move
iTunes LIbrary.itl
After you move it, you need to do a shift-start of iTunes to tell it to use the new location.
Press AND HOLD the shift key until you see a prompt. Coose the new location. Itunes will continue to use that new place until you do another shift-start.

  • How can I manually change the height of the "Type ...

    Hi all
    Just got automatically installed the latest 6.22 version of skype few minutes ago and I got a few questions. 
    First and foremost, how can I MANUALLY change the height of the textbox, where I type the messages. I would like to make it larger, like in the previous versions of skype. I don't want to move my mouse cursor through the entire monitor to reach this tiny textbox.
    And second, why you guys are trying constanly to ruin something that is working perfectly ? Going to revert to the previous version until you fix all these nuisances.
    Regards

    There is no way to do this, it is designed to be strictly landscape with keyboard, portrait without - not the best thought-out phone on the market, mainly geared towards compulsive texters and e-mailers.
    There's no way to know whetherNokia will change this with any future updates, perhaps you should make the recommendation to them directly using the 'contact us' link.

    Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
    If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.  If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

    You must configure to sync only the specific items you want on your iPod by enabling the necessary settings from under the iPod's Summary and Music tabs.  Perhaps this article can provide more information and assistance.

  • How can I manually adjust the contrast and saturation of my ACD23" display?

    I've used Eye-One software with Gretag MacBeth hardware to calibrate both my ACD23" and my MacBookPro 1920x1200 displays. It worked pretty well, but my ACD23" remains much more contrasty and saturated than my MacBookPro. I'm a pro photographer and I need images to match on these two screens.
    If there was a way to directly, manually adjust the contrast and saturation of the ACD23", I could fix this myself. Is there? Perhaps with some 3rd party software?

    Thanks for the idea, Fred,
    Unfortunately, it does not help with this situation. It changes the contrast of BOTH displays, not just one. And, the displays are already set on "Normal" which is the minimum contrast. What I want to do is lower the contrast of just the ACD23.
    Is there an ICC profile editor out there that would let me reduce the contrast and saturation of an ICC profile?

  • How can I manually set the Camera Roll to start at an arbitrary image number, i.e., IMG_0553.JPG?

    I have an iPhone 4s, currently with iOS 5.1. I use it with my desktop computer which runs Windows Vista (and has the latest iTunes installed 10.6), and my laptop, which has Windows 7 and the latest iTunes. I use iCloud and Photo Stream primarily with the desktop computer.
    Since receiving the iPhone on launch day, (Nov...14?, 2011), I've had to "Set [it] up as new" twice, most recently this morning.
    After setting it up as new, the Camera Roll starts over with pictures at IMG_0001.JPG. That means, that, after my first picture after this latest reset, I'll have three pictures all initially named IMG_0001.JPG, and instead, I'll have IMG_0001.JPG, IMG_0001 (1).JPG, and IMG_0001 (3).JPG in my photo library. This robs me of the ability view my photos sorted by name, which is often the default sort order in my photo folders, and still see them chronologically. I can, of course, sort them by Date Created, but it would be more flexible if I could do either one.
    Therefore, I'd like to set Camera Roll to start numbering its photos starting with whatever the next number higher than all the rest in my library would be, in this case, IMG_0553.JPG.
    I can't just use Windows to go into the iPhone's Camera Roll and rename the first photo I take to be IMG_0533.JPG. The iPhone just doesn't allow tampering with the filename that way. Can I even count on Camera Roll to note the presence of the highest numbered file in its folder and then just name the next picture taken the next higher number?
    Since I have no reason to believe that I won't have to reset the phone again, I'd like for whatever method I find to be one that I can use to set the Camera Roll to start at whatever other number I need when the time comes.
    Suggestions welcome...
    I have an idea that I'm about to try...I'll report back if it succeeds...
    UPDATE: So what I tried to do was, with an empty Camera Roll, I uploaded a picture with the filename and number that I wanted (IMG_0533.JPG) into my Photo Stream, then saved that picture to my Camera Roll, hoping it would retain the file name, and then Camera Roll would just use the next number. That didn't work. It saved into Camera Roll as a brand spanking new IMG_0001.JPG.

    To bring the solution into this thread, here are the consolidated solution bits from the other thread:
    I installed i-Funbox and found the file referenced in that other thread ( iPHone / Raw File System / PhotoData / MISC / DCIM_APPLE.plist ).
    That file has a section that I'm replicating below that is the part that that original poster edited, and is the part that needs to be edited for my problem also:
              <key>DCIMLastFileNumber</key>
              <integer>5</integer>
    That other thread's original poster wanted his photos to start with 0001, so he set his "DCIMLastFileNumber" to 0.
    I wanted my next picture to be IMG_0553.JPG, so I edited my file's 5 to 552.
    I did that editing by first copying the file to my laptop (using the Copy To PC command), then opening it up in a text editor. I did the edit, then saved it.
    After that, I used i-Funbox' "Copy From PC" command to copy the edited file back to the same location, hoping that the program would take care of any permissions, etc.
    I had to do the Copy From PC twice.
    On the first try, it seemed to copy just fine, but, for whatever reason, the copied file was empty when I opened it for verification. But I tried again, and that seemed to work (opened for verification, and it was as expected).
    I then unplugged it, copied a picture from the Photo Stream to the Camera Roll, then plugged it into my laptop to verify the filename. It was exactly as I wanted: IMG_0533.JPG. Then, for fuller verification, I unplugged it, took a new picture, then replugged it in, and confirmed that the next pictures (I had HDR on) were IMG_0534.JPG and IMG_0535.JPG.
    ...and that's where I am. Nothing has crashed yet, too, which is all to the good ('course, I haven't done anything else with the phone yet).
    Fingers crossed!

  • Once tunes are matched, how can I organize them the way I want?

    On my itunes library on my home computer, I list my artists the way record stores sell them-by last names.  Itunes match lists them differently.  For example, "McCartney, Paul" (the way I list him in my library-last name first) is listed as "Paul McCartney" after the itunes match.  So essentially, itunes match creates two different listings for that artist but only on my phone and if he ever did a duet, that would be a whole other problem/listing.  My itunes on my computer lists the artists the way I want to organize them, but I have to accept the way itunes files on my iphone.  Seems match will give me the song file but not allow me to organize it as I'd like.  This might seem trivial to many people, but I have over 20,000 songs and right now it's one big ugly mess on my phone, but the library on my home computer is fine. Can something be done to remedy this?  At this point, I'd entertain another program if it promised to do a better job of organizing things the way I'd like them.

    why can't you use the keyboard the way it is printed?

  • How can i manually install the swz files in the assetcache!

    I have a computer that has no internet connection, and since i use components from SDK 4.1 and want to run my application anywhere,
    i need to do a "manual update of flash" and have it register the external swz files.
    If this is not possible, then maybe it could be possible to have all components compiled into one, and only one, swf file, so i can copy that file
    to the "offline" pc.
    I really believed, that the "merge into code" actually compiled everything into the code, but i must have misunderstood.
    I have tried to "reset" the swc components, so they do not use the download url, from adobe, but it makes no difference, and i have edited the flex-config.xml file in the SDK's framework folder, but no luck so far.
    Any hints are welcome,
    TIA

    Hi Gurdeep
    I removed the fpdownload references, and set the use-network=false and the static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true.
    i use the rpc_xx.swz, sparkskins_xx.swz, spark_xx.swz, texlayout_xx.swz, framework_xx.swz and osmf_flex_xx.swz libs.
    I have a master swf file, compiled in flash builder, and a child-swf that is loaded from the master (using the mx.swfloader), and the child is compiled using the mxmlc commandline compiler.
    I am investigating, if the child could be the culprit.
    I have tried to find a way to "install" the required components in the assetcache, but found no other way than "copying the swz and heu files" there myself.
    It actually works, but it would be nice to do this "the proper way"
    Thankx

  • How can I manually transfer album artwork from my library to my iPod

    I downloaded album artwork to the songs in my library, and now I want to get the artwork onto the songs on my iPod classic. Problem is, I manually manage the songs on my ipod, instead of auto-syncing.... so when I hit the "sync" button in the latest version of iTunes (11.1.1.11), nothing happens. There also isn't a "show album artwork on iPod" button anymore. I'm afraid to change my settings from manual to automatic syncing, because I have lots of playlists on my iPod that aren't in my library, and I don't know if these playlists will be removed during the auto-sync. So how can I manually get the album artwork onto my iPod?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    You can only backup iOS devices.
    Sadly the old trick of removing all artwork and then adding it all back again no longer works. You may get some joy if you removed the specific album, then add it back again, butgenerally once things go wrong with artwork on a classic the only option is to restore it. Not a problem if all the media is in your library and you sync with a small number of selected playlists. If you don't have all the media see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
