How can I rename a song deleted from my hard drive?

Hi,
I have imported some of my CDs in iTunes and put them on my iPod (30gb video); however, I deleted the songs from my hard drive because it's not very big and I need to free up space.
But once the songs are deleted, can I rename them? When I try to rename such a file, it tells me that it's impossible to find this song.
thanks for your help!

If the file is not there, you cannot do anything with it.

  • How Can I transfer TM back up from one hard drive to a different drive??

    Set up Is:
    1 iMac with internal 500 GB drive
    1 external 120 GB FW400
    1 external 500 GB FW400
    1 external 1.5 TB FW800
    Right now TM is backing everything up on my 500GB and it's full. I bought a new hard drive today(1.5 TB) and would like that to be the new drive TM backs everything to. How do I do this so TM is not effected by me changing the destination of where to back everything up to? Can I just copy all the TM back up files from the 500 GB drive to the 1.5 TB drive and then change the destination in the TM Preferences? Or what do I need to do?
    Thanks for any help!

    Thanks Wullus,
    It took all night for SuperDuper! to make its copy! WOW that was slow! Then I made sure all my data was copied over. Then I opened System Preferences for TM and clicked on the button that said to change disk. After I made that change TM did a back up and it works great! Im now using disk Utilities to erase the old TM drive and Im Zeroing out the data also which it looks like it is going to take it 5 hours to Zero out.
    Thanks for everyones help

  • How can iTune-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?

    How can iTunes-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?
    This can happen because the iOS device is on travels distant from the iTunes computer, because the iTunes computer is on travels distant from the iOS device, because the iTunes computer has failed permanently, because the iTunes computer has been stolen, etc.

    KRDHarris-
    The only possibility I can think of, is to consult with an Apple Store Genius.  See if there is some kind of Apple proprietary software or diagnostic tool that can do it.
    I do not think you want to, but you could go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings.  If you decided to do that, you might be able to restore from a previous backup when you get home.

  • How to recover pictures I deleted from my hard drive and backed up with TM

    Hello all,
    2 months ago, using the TM for the first time, I decided to delete all my pictures from my MacBook Pro as they were saved with TM.
    Then, when I went to look for them in TM, they were gone as well.
    Anyway, I do hope, to recover them all?
    and.... how to store them so that they don't take so much space on my MacBook Pro?
    Many thanks in anticipation, I feel so useless with this all!

    TM does not retain files that have been deleted from the hard drive for more than one week. During the weekly consolidation files removed from the hard drive are then removed from the TM backup.
    If you are trying to use TM like a regular backup storage utility, then you've misunderstood how TM works. See the following explanation:
    About TM "Backup Drive is Full" Alert
    TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Data are deleted to make space for a new backup, but if TM is unable to delete enough files to free up space for the new backup, then you will get a disk full error. Normal thinning during a backup occurs during TM's periodic weekly and monthly consolidation backups. Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.

    Hey guys, how can i password protect my files in external hard drive? I want to access those files both from mac and windows PC!

    If you want a cross-platform solution that doesn't require the use of third-party software, use an external drive with hardware encryption. The device will have either a physical key or a numeric keypad. I don't have a specific recommendation.

  • How can I make a backup to an external hard drive from iPhoto if it won't open?

    how can I make a backup to an external hard drive from iPhoto if it won't open? I just wan't to make a backup to my pictures not my entire computer so how does Time Machine work on that?

      you could also clone the drive or volume, or just some of the user folders. look for carbon copy cloner, then enable the "use checksum to insure file integrity."
      you can have multiple iPhoto Library catalogues in different locations.
    Continue to use TimeMachine and make sure it has 350% or more capacity than your system and data.

  • HT1766 HOW CAN I CHANGE MY BACKUP FOLDER FROM THE C DRIVE TO ANOTHER?????

    HOW CAN I CHANGE MY BACKUP FOLDER FROM THE C DRIVE TO ANOTHER????? because my c drive in the windows computer gets filled and i need to back up my ipod to a portable hard disk.. bt i dont know how to do it.. plz help

    you can't change the backup folder as far as I know, but you can choose to move backups. The information you need can be found in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4946
    Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system.   Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac:  ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP:  \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7:  \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.
    Hope this helps

  • After upgrading to FF 3.6.12 I can no longer view PHP pages from my hard drive.

    After upgrading to version 3.6.12 I can no longer open PHP web pages from my hard drive. When I create or edit web pages I view them from my hard drive first before uploading, as many webmasters do to look for errors before taking them live.
    I can view PHP pages online, but from my hard drive it just spawns endless empty tabs. Instead of just opening the page it asked me what to open it with, thinking the PHP web page is a script.
    It was working fine before the upgrade. I had a page open that I wanted to edit, which it reopened when my browser restarted.
    Then I edited the page. All I did was add a link to it. Then I hit the refresh button to see the change and instead of reloading the page, FF asked me what to do with the PHP script, prompting me to save it or choose what program to open it with.
    I selected to view it with FF and it just spawned endless tabs. They wouldn't stop. Had to shut down FF and it probably had 40 tabs opened with nothing on them. I tried other PHP pages from my hard drive that opened fine before, but it did the same thing with them.
    I tried finding help online and I see others have had the same problem, but no solution was offered that worked. I tried rebooting, same story, it wants to know what to do with the PHP script.
    I'm being forced to use another browser, so I'm going to go download Chrome now. If this probably isn't fixed soon I'll simply give up on FF. It's not worth the aggravation. I can't tell you how much TIME I've wasted today -- HOURS.
    Very disappointed.

    Thanks for the reply. It doesn't have to process the php, it just has to show the HTML content. It did that just fine before the last upgrade but won't now.
    I've seen that page you referenced: http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions.
    It doesn't help. The things it says to look for aren't there for me, specifically:
    browser.download.pluginOverrideTypes
    plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types
    I followed the rest of the instructions but it didn't help.
    I did get it to quit opening tabs, instead it prompts me what it should do with the file every time now. What it should do, and used to do, is open the php page and display the HTML content.
    Any other ideas?

  • I have so many photos I only have 1G of memory left.  How can I move the photos to my external hard drive that is connected to my iMac?

    I have so many photos on my Mac I only have 1G of memory left.  How can I move the photos to the external hard drive that is plugged into my iMac.

    1GB? It's a miracle your Mac is running at all!
    This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
    You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • How can i perform a search on my external hard drive on my mac pro os x 10.9.2 ?

    how can i perform a search on my external hard drive on my mac pro os x 10.9.2 ?

    Mac OS X 10.9.2 is 12 years newer than 9.2.x.    You need to make sure that Spotlight has indexed the external hard drive by adding it and removing it from Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Spotlight -> Privacy.   Check the menu for it:
    to determine if indexing is still going on, as it will say indexing.
    Alternatively, you can use a non-Spotlight tool, such as:
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    http://www.devontechnologies.com/products/freeware/ - EasyFind
    http://www.osxbytes.com/ - iFileX (note the MacUpdate link provided on osxbytes page has a Malware advertisement for MacKeeper, do not download).
    http://www.barebones.com/ Textwrangler has a Search file for content, which works on any Text file.

  • Mac-format to PC-format: How can I get my music off an external hard drive?

    I had a mac-formatted iPod for years, and all of my music is on an external hard drive that is hooked up to that computer. When I got a new iPod after mine was stolen, I had to get a PC-formatted iPod. How can I get my music off of the hard drive and onto my PC (and eventually my iPod)? I tried uploading the files into my iTunes account on the Mac, but they don't show up in my account on the PC. Most of the music are CDs that I copied onto my computer years ago, and had on my old iPod. Help!

    Your Firefox profile would have the data. You can find it at:
    *C:\Users\<Windows login/user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>
    **The file you want is called ''places.sqlite''
    You can copy that file if you want to restore your bookmarks to your current Firefox by going back to ''C:\Users\<Windows login/user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>'' and overwriting the current file. Keep in mind, doing this will erase your current bookmarks.
