how do I get mp3 files to appear with album cover thumbnails? when I updated my ITunes now all my mp3 files
that had thumbs have no thumbs...thanks

First, you have to embbed picture into mp3 file with idtag editors (tagalicious, musicbrainz picard, mp3tag, id3tag editor...).
Then you'll have to install at least Itunes 10.5.1(42), even if you're not using Itunes at all.
Albumarts will now appear in every folder from the finder.
I closed my topic because I solved it :

How can I get avi files to work with imovie08?

Hi I bought a macbook last year and have loved creating imovie videos by simply using the video function on my digital camera. My daughter was born last year and we have a great collection of clips of her first 7 months. I'd now like to take things a step further and put together a wedding video.
We had our wedding day filmed on a digital camcorder by a friend and he has given my 25MB of avi files which I would like to import into imovie and make into a video however I understand that this format isn't compatible. Is there a way of getting it to work and if so please can you tell me in very simple terms what I need to do to get the files to work with imovie? (I'm not very technical)
Thanks
Matt

I do not know of a way to import .avi files directly into iMovie, and I am positive that this is not actually possible as iMovie only supports the importation of .mov, .mp4 (mpeg4) and .dv filetypes.
What you could do is use a video converter (there are some good ones that are availible free, eg MPEG Streamclip (http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html)) to convert those avi movie files to either of the 3 video formats iMovie supports, then import them.
MPEG Streamclip does sound a little complicated for you but it is the best I have found, any more questions just post them here.

How do I get a single to appear with rest of album

When I buy singles from iTunes and then buy the rest of the album I can't get the single to appear as part of the album so can't play it as a complete album.
Any ideas?

Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.

How do I get mp3 files to stream?

I installed Firefox on a new HD. Before when I clicked on a website mp3 audio file, it opened the file in the default player and streamed it in. This is what I prefer. But now, it automatically downloads the file and I must select it to play it. How do I change that to be as before?

That file is send as Content-Type: audio/mpeg
So you need to have a media player that can handle this MIME type.
You can open the about:plugins page via the location bar to check that.
*Tools > Options > Applications
You can delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all file actions.

How can I get mp3s onto my iphone with ios7?

I have an iPhone 4S. I recently upgraded to ios7 after reading an article that sounded like compatibility wouldn't be a problem.
I was wrong. I plugged it into my G4 laptop, which is running iTunes 10.6.3 can't read my phone. Can't drag MP3s into it. How can I remedy this without having to buy a new laptop?

There is a free app called EXMP3. I installed this on my iPhone. Under the feature "File Transfer," you have the option to select wi-fi or G3. Once it detects how you are connected to the web, it gives you a URL address. You type this URL address into your computer's browser, and it is a page that lets you select MP3s from your computer. It then transmits it to the EZMP3 app. And presto, you can transfer MP3s to your iPhone and play them in the EZMP3 app.

I have many PDF files in iBooks for iPad 2. How can I get those files to sync with iPhone 5?

I Have many categories of my work brochures stored in PDF format in iBooks. iPad 2 running iOS 6. I'd like to be able to view those same PDF files on my iPhone 5. Is this possible to do over the iCloud ?
i Cannot do it via iTunes because my MacBook is 10.5.8 and apparently is not capable of getting iTunes 10.7

When I don't have my computer available, I do this by emailing the PDF to myself then open it from whichever device I need (open in iBooks)

How do I get my Bookmarks to appear with icons instead of text?

I do not want my bookmarked websites that are in my toolbar to appear as text only. i want them to show with the icon as well.

The Bookmark Toolbar Icons add-on will display icons on the bookmarks toolbar on the Mac for Firefox versions up to 3.6. On Firefox 4 on the Mac the icons appear by default - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/bookmark-toolbar-icons/

How do you get your opening page back to album cover status instead if being in a list form

WHen I open up itunes it always showed recently downloaded items in an album form now it got changed to a list form and I cant get it back to the album view does anyone know how to do this.

Assuming you've got an iTunes version 11.x, click on the word "Albums". Here's a screenshot showing where to find it:

HT1277 only my hotmail inbox appears in Mail. How do I get my file folders to come over?

only my hotmail inbox appears in Mail. How do I get my file folders to come over?

It sounds as though you have set Mail up in POP mode. POP only sees and downloads from the server Inbox.
To see or download any other server folders you need to set it up in IMAP mode.
Good luck.

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.

Please can someone tell me how to save a MP3 file from my email on my iPad so I can put in on Facebook? Thankyou

Please can someone tell me how to save a MP3 file from my email on my iPad so I can put it on Faceboo? I use hotmail and please tell me step by step as I am not a tech guru lol. Thankyou

Hi jscher200,
Thank you for your reply, sorry for the VERY late late response, but I have just figured out how to control this separate 'panel'. I find it really useful for monitoring Google Analytics in as it can just sit there running. It does have its limitations, as it's a limited size (you can't expand it to full screen view), so you can only ever see a vertical section of a website and need to scroll to look to the right or left, but I have the live view of people accessing my website running on there and if the numbers start racking up at any time, I can scroll to look and see what pages they are accessing, where they've been referred from, etc.
To get it to work, you save a website address in the Bookmarks Toolbar and when you can see it sitting on the toolbar at the top of the screen with its little icon, right click on it then click 'properties', then tick the box 'Load this bookmark in the sidebar'. The next time you click on this bookmark to open the website, it will load in this sidebar, which looks like a separate 'window' but is immovable. You can only have one sidebar application running at a time, but can change it by right clicking on the bookmark you want to load in there and it will then change to that one next time you click on that bookmark.
I hope this might be useful to others, as I asked for help with this on loads of forums and not one person knew that this existed - even really skilled techies!

System files are hidden by default in Finder now, search for what you want then click the little + button on the top right of the bar that appears when you do a search. A new bar comes up and click the first box (that says "Kind"), change it to "System Files". Then change the box that says "aren't included" to "are included" and your file should show up.

How do I get a popup to appear every time a download finishes?

How do I get a popup to appear every time a single download finishes? I want a big popup window. I want it to interrupt me as I'm watching full screen movies. In otherwords, if I download 100 different files, when the first finishes, I get a popup. Second, another popup. Third, you get the idea. I want it to be the opposite of low profile. I want it to be something I can't ignore, something that most people wouldn't want--to be annoying. Like me.

First place I tried. I've searched online extensively. trying this as last resort. Please don't tell me where to look. I've probably already looked there. I'm hoping someone sees this and knows of an addon specifically and points me there exactly. Otherwise, posting to this question will only dilute its freshness.

All of my pics are blank, the outlines are there but the pics are blank. How do I get them to re appear?Ask your question.

All of my pics are blank. There is an outline but the pics are blank. How can I get them to re appear? and more importantly how did this happen in the first place?

Move the library back into your Pictures folder and open it. Then close it and try rebuilding again.
Select the options checked in this screenshot:
If that fails continue with this:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
I completely agree.
