How to add folder to itunes

How do you add a folder from your computer to your music library vs. a file.

Hi Kbosborne89,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You should have an option for adding folders to iTunes, as well as individual files. See this article for more information:
iTunes: About the Add to Library, Import, and Convert functions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347
If you want to add files to your iTunes library, you can drag files from the Finder to the appropriate icon on the left side of the iTunes window, or choose File > Add to Library (on Windows, choose Add File to Library or Add Folder to Library) and then select the song file or folder you want to add.
All the best,
Jeremy

How to add movies on iTunes?

How to add movies on iTunes? So I could put it on my iPad.
Thanks in advance!

I also just tried an experiment. With the movie file on the desktop, begin to drag it across to the playlist area of the iTunes window. Hold the Option key while dragging. The file will copy in place, without adding itself to the Media folder.
I like to drag to the Playlist area because it is immediately accessible. I'm sure if you drag to the upper portion it will still get in there. But then you have to find it to work on it.

HT1849 how to add folder to music library on itunes 11.1

Can some one please help me how to add a folder to music library. I can see add a file to music library option but not folder option.

You should be able to add folders via the File > Add To Library menu option - if I go into that and highlight the folder that I want to add in the pop-up dialogue box, then clicking the Open button at the bottom of the dialogue box adds that folder's content to my library

How to add folder from KM content to Portal Favorites for selected users

Hi all,
I have cretaed a folder in KM content (In documents) for uploading implementation related ddocuments.
how to add this folder in "Portal Favorites" of selected users only.
Please guide.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
well one way could be the following.
Go into KM-Content --> Repository "userhome" --> select the user you want --> navigate into his folder Favorites --> create a new internal link in this folder to the folder you want
In the favorites of the user there is now a link to the desired folder and after clicking a new window will be opened. You can copy this internal link to the favorites folder of the other users you want.

How to add folder in picture library programmatically

Hi All,

                Utility.SPTraceLogError(ex);
Help me to resolve. Thanks in advance.

Hi DK,
You can use below mentioned code to add folder in any of your library. You need to changes little bit code as per your requirement.
/// <summary>
/// Provide utilities methods related to folder management
/// </summary>
public static class SPFolderUtilities
/// <summary>
/// Ensures the specified folder exists.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="list">The list where to create the folder.</param>
/// <param name="subFolderPath">The sub folder path.</param>
/// <returns>
/// The existing <see cref="SPFolder"/> or a newly created if it did not exists.
/// </returns>
public static SPFolder EnsureFolder(SPList list, string subFolderPath)
Contract.Requires<ArgumentNullException>(list != null);
Contract.Requires<ArgumentNullException>(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(subFolderPath));
if (!IO.SPPathUtilities.IsFileOrFolderNameValid(subFolderPath, true))
throw new ArgumentException("Invalid characters in the file or folder name", "subFolderPath");
var folderPaths = subFolderPath.Split('/');
var currentFolder = list.RootFolder;
for (int i = 0; i < folderPaths.Length; i++)
currentFolder = list.ParentWeb.GetFolder(currentFolder.Url); // hacky refresh
var subFolder = currentFolder.SubFolders.Cast<SPFolder>().FirstOrDefault(f => string.Compare(f.Name, folderPaths[i], true) == 0);
if (subFolder == null)
var newFolderItem = list.Items.Add(currentFolder.ServerRelativeUrl, SPFileSystemObjectType.Folder, folderPaths[i]);
newFolderItem.SystemUpdate();
subFolder = newFolderItem.Folder;
currentFolder = subFolder;
return currentFolder;
And here is the specifc code that you can use for Picture library only

yes the code sample provided by you is to create a image library and then to add a folder to it but i'm not sure with the string.empty being passed to list.items.add. i would still recommend to use the solution suggested by me. to check if library exists or
not what you have to do is
SPSite _MySite = new SPSite("SERVERIP");
using (SPWeb currentweb = _MySite.OpenWeb())
SPList imageLib = currentweb.Lists["NewImages]
if( imageLib == null)
Guid listId = currentweb.Lists.Add("NewImages", "Picture Library", SPListTemplateType.PictureLibrary);
imageLib t = currentweb.Lists[listId];
SPDocumentLibrary
_MyDocLibrary =
(SPDocumentLibrary)
imageLib ;
SPFolderCollection _MyFolders = _MyWeb.Folders;
_MyFolders.Add("http://adfsaccount:2222/My%20Images/" + <<subfolderName>> + "/");
_MyDocLibrary.Update();
I hope this is helpful to you, mark it as Helpful.

How to add music to itunes library from ipod

how do i add music from an ipod to itunes library without losing what i already have

1). Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

How to add folder/project name to a File Naming preset

Here's a tip to automatically add the name of the Project or its parent Folder to the filename during Import or Batch Change.
I always used a custom field for adding my client's name to the filename upon Import or Batch Changing versions or masters. But often I would forget to change the custom name, and since it's auto-populated with the previous entry, I'd end up with a bunch of files with the wrong client's name on them. That looks kind of bad. So once I saw with Aperture 3 you can add the Project name or Folder name when relocating referenced files to the new folder structure, I was excited to be able to do the same for the filenames at import. Well, no such luck. They're not an option when you create a custom File Naming preset.
However, I recently decided to poke around inside some plist files, and found a workaround. I discovered the format string for Folder Name is %F and Project Name is %P. The trick is getting the code into the Format Field where you create the preset.
Create a new File Naming preset by choosing "edit" from the Version Name menu during Import or Batch Change. Drag everything you want in the name into the Format field, and enter %F or %P where you want the Folder or Project name. The tricky part is that you can't insert it between two existing criteria. It only works at the very end. After you have it in place, you can drag the criteria around to get it in the order you want.
The alternative method is to insert the code directly into the plist. PLEASE, always make sure you're working with a copy and have a good backup when you're poking around in such things. If you have trouble getting the code to take from within Aperture, you can try this. Same as above, create a new preset, but this time, enter an F or P where you want the Folder or Project name. Give it a unique preset name and save it. Then Quit Aperture. Navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/FileNamingPresets.plist, and make a copy of the file, then open with Property List Editor. Dropdown the plist and then dropdown the item you want to edit. You should recognize it by the preset name. Now the easy part. Click in the FormatString field and insert the % character before the F or P you entered in the Format field. Save and you're done.
I discovered later that while the Folder and Project name works just fine during import, for some reason only the Project name works during Batch Change. The Folder name simply creates a "-" in the filename.
In case this is seen as a hack and gets deleted, I'm also submitting it to http://www.macosxhints.com/ and I suspect if anyone from MacCreate sees it, they'll steal it too, as they're known to do.

I do not think there is an out of the box way to do this.
The immediate solution that comes to mind is using a workflow, that runs everytime a document is uploaded/item created, which may be too much for your scenario.

How to add PDF on itunes 12.0.1? VERY URGENT!!!

Can someone please explain to me, where I can find iBooks on the new iTunes 12.0.1 (Yosemite)? Or at least to tell me how to put PDF file in iTunes so I can transfer it on my iphone and ipad. IT IS VERRY URGENT!!! Thank you!

You have a separate app on you Mac called iBooks. You import the pdf in iBooks.
(this is what the icon of iBooks looks like)
Then you start iTunes and connect your iPad of iPhone. You click on the iDevice icon on the white top bar (right next to the three dots). In the sidebar you select books. In main screen you select "Synchronize books" and "selected books". You will be able to select all the books and PDF's you imported in the iBooks-app.
Then you sync your iDevice and PDF will be put on that device. (the picture is in Dutch, but you get the idea...)

How to add NAS for iTunes and backups

I would like to add NAS to home network of older iMac (OSX 10.7.4), win 7 notebook, soon to be added MacAir, plus iPad, iPhones, and sonos. I would like to move iTunes from iMac external drive to NAS and also use NAS for time machine backups of the 2 Macs and a backup for the win 7 notebook. Any recommendations on NAS for mostly Mac network? Can I use the NAS for both iTunes and for backups?

Most of the big brands support TM.. QNAP and Synology being the main contenders.
Moving itunes library is always dangerous and TM will not back it up.. since it is now on a network drive.. so take steps to ensure the library cannot be lost. This is of course far easier on a brand that has automatic backups and mirrored drives.. that the TC.

How to add DRM to iTunes Files?

So I bought this album from Target and I imported the CD tracks into iTunes Windows App and I pretty much follow the exact "formatting" (Artwork, NO. order of the Tracks ect.) from iTunes; but is there any FREE software or any way to ADD DRM to imported/download music files/tracks to look like as if they were bought from iTunes with their DRM Protection (ex; ℗ YYYY ------ Records)

Even Apple do not add DRM to music they sell anymore. It is not necessary to use DRM to be able to set the "Parental Advisory" tag. To do this you just need a tool that can set the correct tag to the correct value.
I have just tested a track using MetaX for Mac. This allows editing MPEG4 type files which includes AAC, Apple Lossless, and MPEG4 video files. If you open the track using this program and then go to the Advanced tab, you will see an option for "Advisory" in which you can set the level and you probably want to set it to "Explicit". This tag cannot be edited in iTunes itself.
The Genre can be edited in iTunes. The Purchase data also cannot be edited in iTunes but again can be edited in MetaX. I could not find a 'Released' field, the nearest I found was the year of release which can be edited in iTunes. I could not find an example that had something like 2013 Interscope Records, but I would guess this might be the "Copyright" field. Again iTunes does not let you edit this but MetaX does.

How to add folder name to document library view

Using Project Server 2010.
We have a set of standard folders on each of our project sites for Requirements, Development, Testing, etc. Currently, we display this library like you would see in File Explorer - you see a list of folders at the top, double-click on a folder
to drill down, etc.
I want to display these same documents as a straight list of all documents - not grouped into folders - but with the folder name displayed next to it (sort of like an attribute). I can create the list view easily by selecting the "Show all items
without folders" option in the view settings; however, the containing folder name is not available as a column name.
Is this possible?

I do not think there is an out of the box way to do this.
The immediate solution that comes to mind is using a workflow, that runs everytime a document is uploaded/item created, which may be too much for your scenario.
