How do you keep a local copy of a song only

I am enrolled in iTunes Match.
I have some local audio in iTunes - from music workshops - that should not be loaded to the cloud.
But I want to keep my local version.
How can I mark it so Match won't upload it to the cloud.
Regards..

Turn off iTunes Match and change the Media Kind to Audiobook or Podcast. But if the tracks are encoded at 96 Kbps or less they will be ineligible for iTM anyway.

  • Do I need to keep a local copy?

    All of my music is on a single external drive.
    Once itunes match upoads/match all of my music, do I need to keep the external drive connected to one of my computer?
    Can I store the external drive in my safe or even trow it out and keep everything on the cloud without any local storage?
    Thank You

    Thank you for your response. However I am still puzzled about having to keep a local copy. To be safe, this mean that I also have to keep a backup of my local copy as well.
    If you care about your data, yes you should. Redundant backup plans are what keeps data safe.

    ITune Match has a copy my entire song collection as both links to my songs known to the Apple Store and cloud copies of my songs it could not match. So effectively iTunes Match has my entire 10,000 song collection but I am still forced to keep a backup of my song collection in a safe or on another cloud service like Dropbox or I risk loosing it all when my local drive eventually fails!
    It's not a true copy. Think if it as a mirror. For example I purchased the recently remastered early Rush albums on CD. There was one album in each box in 24-bit, 96 kHz which I have ripped and then converted to AAC @ 256 Kbps for the highest quality AAC track I can get. Now, most of these tracks were matched to tracks in the iTunes Store (which is fine since I'm going to be listening to them on my iPhone), but they are not the same tracks that are in my iTunes library. If I had a disaster I would not be able to restore the tracks I spent to much time on, I'd have to settle for the tracks I can get from the iTunes Store. For me this is not an optimal solution, which is why I keep local backups.
    If none of this is important to you, or if your other personal data is not important to you, then by all means don't backup. The choice is yours. But if you do not backup you will eventually lose data.

  • How do you keep your VPN clients up to date?

    Hi, how do you keep your Cisco VPN clients up to date? Our users connect to a Cisco 3015 Concentrator. It needs to be as automatic as possible.
    Thanks

    Check this link,
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/cisco_vpn_client/vpn_cli
    ent46/administration/guide/vcAch3.html
    Example:
    Steps to perform an automatic update for VPN client :
    ===================================================
    1. Download update-4.8.00.0440-major-K9 file on your PC from the link below and unzip it.
    http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/vpnclient-3des
    It will have the following files::
    - binary_config.ini
    - sig.dat
    - vpnclient-win-is-8.00.0440-k9.exe
    - vpnclient-win-msi-8.00.0440-k9.exe
    2. Create a webserver with a folder and move all the above files to this folder on webserver.
    3. Now on your vpn client create a new profile. This profile file will appear in the profiles folder of the vpn client. Copy this file to your desktop and zip it. Name the
    zipped file as profiles.zip. Delete the profile from the client.
    4. Make a copy of your binary_config.ini on your desktop. Rename it to new_update_config.ini. This is just to make sure its not saved as a txt file.
    Open the above file and write the following on it:
    [Autoupdate]
    Required=1
    5. Now move the new_update_config.ini and profiles.zip to the webserver. Once we browse to the webserver it should look like --
    http://webserver/~razshah/vpn_profile_update462/
    Index of /~razshah/vpn_profile_update462
    Name Last modified Size Description
    Parent Directory 09-Mar-2005 13:24 -
    binary_config.ini 09-Mar-2005 13:26 1k
    new_update_config.ini 11-Mar-2005 11:35 1k
    profiles.zip 09-Mar-2005 13:26 1k
    sig.dat 09-Mar-2005 13:26 2k
    vpnclient-win-is-4.6..> 09-Mar-2005 13:26 7.6M
    vpnclient-win-msi-4...> 09-Mar-2005 13:26 10.3M
    6. The concentrator is configured as follows:
    Client Type is Windows
    URL http://webserver/~razshah/vpn_profile_update462
    Revisions 4.6
    7. On your PC go to the VPN Client > updates folder. Delete the update_config file if its already there. This folder should have only autoinstall (this file will be added if update works) autoupdate header files.
    The update does take about 5 mins. To see the new file we have to close and reopen the client. Once connected make sure you are able to browse to the webserver and see all the files.
    1- Auto update runs only on Windows 2000 and Windows XP, all other client types update manually. Windows NT users get notified and can get an update manually from the update server.
    2- Remote users must have the VPN Client for Windows 4.6 or greater installed on their PCs to use the automatic update feature.

  • Lightroom 5 make adjustments want to transfer to photo shop to make additional adjustments. how do you keep the adjustments made in lr5 when photo is transferred to photo shop

    lightroom 5 make adjustments want to transfer to photo shop to make additional adjustments. how do you keep the adjustments made in lightroom 5 when photo is transferred to photo shop
    I am not able to keep the changes made in light room when I transfer to photo shop

    Something you need to understand. Unless you are using the latest version of Photoshop Elements, it's possible that some of the adjustments that you make in Lightroom won't transfer to Elements if you choose the option to open anyway. If you choose the option to edit a copy with Lightroom adjustments then Lightroom will create a TIF or PSD file (depending on your preferences), and that file will include all of the adjustments that you have made using Lightroom. Then you can finish your work in Photoshop Elements.
    The process of transferring an image from Lightroom to Photoshop or Photoshop Elements involves the Camera Raw plug-in. It has to be used to interpret the Lightroom adjustments and apply those adjustments to the image after it has been converted. Files open in Elements or Photoshop or no longer raw images because those programs are incapable of editing raw image data. I don't know if this will help you in this situation. Feel free to ask if you have more questions.

  • How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

    Events are organised strictly on date and time, as read by iPhoto from the Exif data in the Photo. You cannot manually sort.
    Create Albums. You can do much more organising with Albums, use Photos from different events, place them as you will. Best of all, Albums use no disk space at all. They simply reference the file on the Hard Disk. So a pic can be 1, 10 or 100 Albums with no wasted disk space whatever.

  • How do you keep your purchased apps if you are forced to change your Apple ID?

    How do you keep your purchased apps if you are forced to change your Apple ID? A good example is if you are forced to change your email, which you use as your Apple ID.  what if it is a security app and you lose a lot of data if you lose the app? Why are the apps tied to the Apple ID rather than the user? Why is it impossible to globally change the Apple I D?

    All content is tied to the account, but you can change the primary email address on an account e.g. you can log into your account via the Store > View Account on your computer's iTunes and there should be an Edit button to the right of your account id on your account's page, or similarly on your iPad try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and view your account. Or you can update it by logging into it via this page http://appleid.apple.com . You shouldn't lose any content on the account if you update it.
    After updating the account you may need to log out of your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version for it to be 'refreshed' on it

  • How to create an identical local copy of a mail without attachments?

    Hi,
    I would like to save a copy of an IMAP-Message to my db without the attachments.
    As I cannot modify the original message, I tried to create a new MimeMessage with the constructor MimeMessage(MimeMessage source) and then remove the attachments - this works fine so far, but using this constructor only the body seems to get copied without subject, recipients or from-address.
    Can anybody give me a hint how to create an identical local copy of a Message-Object? I would rather like to do this without installing any local third party providers.
    Regards
    Karsten

    Sorry, found the problem - I did some things with the InputStream before I should not have - now the message gets saved without attachments and can be reopened.

  • HT4236 How do you keep photos in the same sequence on the iPhone that they are on the PC folder?

    How do you keep photos in the same sequence in the iPhone as they are in the folder on the PC??

    When I sync my photos they are listed alphabetically (by folder) and within the folders, listed alphabetically again by the name assigned to the photo. The only way I can think of to keep the order that you have in your computer would be to assign a letter as a prefix to each photo. If you have more than 26 photos in a folder, you can double the letters, etc. I think that will keep the photos in the order you want.

  • When burning a playlist to disc, how do you keep the songs in original order?

    When burning a playlist to disc, how do you keep the songs in original order?

    If you are burning an audio CD, they will burn in sequential order as in your playlist.
    If you are burning an MP3 CD or a data CD, they will burn as individual files, and can be sorted any way you like when you view the CD.  For an MP3 CD, the files will be prepended with a sequence number, so if you sort by filename, they will be in the original order.

    You asked...
    quote:
    Is there a way to shrink the application you're capturing so it
    fits within a given capture window rather than requiring scrolling,
    or would I have to go back to the application developers for that?
    (I realize that would shrink the size of everything on the screen,
    but in some cases, that would be worth it to be able to show a
    window without scrolling.
    If, by "shrink" ... you mean by using the AppSizer, the
    answer is "not really". You can configure AppSizer to a defined
    size, then with the mouse pointer double-arrowed on the "edge" of a
    window, right-click and your window-size selections will appear in
    the AppSizer "list" (that you set up) and can be selected there.
    But there is no re-scaling of the window contents, if that is
    what you mean, so the smaller window may now require scrolling.
    But keep in mind that if you use the recording option for
    "Software Simulation" > "Custom Size", you can then snap the
    application window to that size...

  • How do you keep yourself well organized at work?

    For documentation I use onenote which is synced to my owncloud server so i can use it when ever needed. I also use a mix of wundlerlist and spiceworks to keep track of all my to do items and issues and requests. My number one recommendation is find the best way that works for you documenting and make sure to stick to it. Writing or typing it down will make sure that you retain what you did that day! 

    I am about to begin my first IT career in about a week (as a help desk position.)
    I'm very excited about my new career shift but am bit worried at the same time.
    That being said, I have a question that I want to ask all of you guys out there who has been working in the field for a quiet some time.
    How do you keep yourself well organized when it comes to documenting results?
    I was taught to document EVERYTHING after you solve your assigned tickets.
    Are there any great tools that could come in handy when you document things?
    Plus, what would be a proper way of documenting?
    Would you document every single steps you've tried to solve your ticket?
    Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thank you!
