How to save 30G of music when uninstalling I Tunes?

Silly question, I know...
But as I'm experiencing the same problem as everyone else after updating to I Tunes 6, I decided to try to uninstall and reinstall it.
However, i was wondering what would happen to all the music stored in Itunes in the meanwhile...
See, I don't want to have more trouble than I already have.
So, is there a way to back up all music files before uninstalling ITunes?
Thanks for your help.

OK, that's what I thought... No external hard drive apart from iPod...
But (sorry I'm very anxious about this), you can confirm that if I uninstall itunes, none of my music will be erased and i will still be able to put it back into the new itunes installation.
Enjoy our time zone!

    How to save slideshow settings so when I press Ctrl-Enter it does what I want?
    eh?
    R

    I tested what you gave me there Rob. On my Mac I have dual monitors:
    -Only blackens/show slideshow on one monitor (the main monitor, if I move LR to my secondary monitory, the slideshow is still on the first, but the second still runs normal, with LR just sitting there).
    -If I disable slide durration I have to manually advance the slides with the right arrow.
    -I don't have "Lightroom" (or with my current settings any) text on the screen.
    -Does not repeat.
    My Windows machine doesn't have dual monitors, but the others work correctly....
    That is, until I thought about this differently. Since we are looking at changing Slideshow settings, I was naturally in the Slideshow module. But then I remembered the whole point of the Impromtu Slideshow was that you can view slideshow playback from any module. Once I returned to Library and clicked Command/Ctrl+Enter, then I saw exactly what you are talking about. Both monitors are blackened, slide duration is ignored, etc.
    You know why? Because the Impromptu Slideshow uses one of the templates when outside of the Slideshow Module. Which one? Well, Default +, of course. How do you change that? Right-click (Command-click) the slideshow template you'd rather use and select "Use for Impromptu Slideshow".

  • Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    I did not hear them state the feature requirements directly in the streaming even but there are statements on the Apple website that clearly say that an iPhone is necessary.  I'm guessing that other than Bluetooth for pairing with the iPhone, it's just not technically possible to fit any other radios such as WiFi or LTE into that form factor or battery capacity.  I don't even remember them mentioning if it had a speaker or could pair directly with bluetooth headphones.
    While I'm hoping that the watch has a reasonable stand-alone feature set, they didn't make it clear what exactly it can and can't do without an iPhone nearby.  I also hope that they communicate this better in the coming days.

  • I'm a indipendent music productor... how can i sell my music here on i tunes??

    I'm a indipendent music productor... how can i sell my music here on i tunes??

    Sign up for ADEDistribution at http://aded.us
    You may see other people suggesting that you sign up as a content provider/partner at itunes. This is a bad idea because it's nearly IMPOSSIBLE to gain such an account. iTunes has been FLOODED with such requests and are basically rejecting people left and right. The only way you can become a content provider/partner with itunes is if you meet the following criteria:
    You own, or have worked with, a real distribution company for a long time
    You have a HUGE catalog to distribute
    iTunes doesn't give these types of accounts to just anybody and they will check your history and credentials to see if you're lying.
    Your best bet is to sign up with a company that offers cheap distribution and ALREADY has a distribution deal in place with iTunes. ADEdistribution is the best company to offer such a service. You may see other people suggesting other companies such as TuneCore, CDBaby, SongCast, or ReverbNation. Just be aware that these companies are expensive and cost a lot more than ADEDistribution.

  • TS3212 How do I fix "error 7" when installing I tunes?

    How do I fix "error 7" when installing I tunes?

    Take a look at iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes. Perhaps your .NET Framework needs a repair.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • How do i sync my music when there is more songs one my phone than on my mac?

    I had some issues with two different apple ID's when i migrated from a macbook to an imac.  it seems we are offered appleID's ad nauseum when we buy new apply products.  Anywho.....  I believe i have most of it straightened out, however.  The iTunes music library on the imac, that i now use to back up my iphone and sync everything from, has only one or two albums in the library.  the i phone library has hundreds.  how do i get the two libraries to merge without losing one or the other?

    Music sync is one-way, Mac to iPhone.  You can transfer purchases from the iPhone to the
    Mac using iTunes File menu > Transfer purchases from XXX's iPhone.  Threre are several 3rd party utilities that can move all your music from the iPhone to iTunes.  Here are two: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/ or http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php.  Google will find others.

    Thank you for your help....

    Frank31,
    Syncing music to the iPod is a one-way street, as discussed in this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302155
    If you are concerned about using up your computer's hard drive for music, and are using iTunes 7, you might consider creating your library on an external drive if one is available.
    This article discusses creating an alternate iTunes library in another location, such as another drive:

  • How to save a document programatically when u click on "Run Query" button

    Hi all,
    I am new to BO Web Intelligence java SDK. I am using Java Report Panel to edit and save the document.
    (As per my knowledge the default functionality of the Java Panel is, once u edited the document query and then run the query and  as when as u click on the "Save" icon then only the report will be saved into the repository )
    What my doubt is ?
    Once i edited the query in java query panel, when i click on the "Run Query" button the following operation needs to be performed
    1) The doucment has to be saved in the specified reposiory folder.
    2) The SQL for the docment has to be captured.
    how to do the above operations programatically?  can any body help me please.... thanks in advance
    Thanks & Regards,
    Madan Kumar

    You would have to modify the Java Report Panel to be able to do this.  There is no documentation on how to make modifications to the Java Report Panel, and it is beyond the scope of what assistance support would be able to provide you.  There may be people in the community that have done this before that can assist you.

  • How to keep Itunes playing music when switching from one user account to another?

    On my old pc, that running XP, itunes would continue playing when I was switching from one user account to another.
    Now I have a new PC running win8 and the music stops playing when I switch from one user account to another. I think Itunes is still running on the user that is not active, but the music is not coming out of the speekers.
    Does anyone know how I can get the win8 pc to do as the old XP machine?

    The steps below detail how to place an input chooser that will allow for the adjustment of your keyboard layout while on the login screen.
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    Click Users & Groups to display the pane (or choose User & Groups from the View menu).
    If the lock icon in the lower-left corner of the window is closed, click it, then enter the name and password of an administrator to unlock it.
    Click Login Options.
    Select the "Show Input menu in login window" checkbox.
    From the Apple menu, choose Log Out.
    At the login window, click the Input menu (shows the name of the currently selected input source next to a keyboard icon) in the upper-right corner of the screen, then select the desired input source or keyboard layout. If you don't see the input source you are looking for, move the pointer over Other Input Sources, then select the input source from the complete list that appears.

  • How to get back purchased music when computers are no longer available...

    We were hit by lightning, again, and lost my wife's Bondi iMac. Those of you who know them realize that they didn't come with CD burners...so we didn't back up her music purchases. In addition, I recently lost my job. The music I purchased on my work computer was purged while I was getting my pink slip. So, I was unable to back it up as well.
    So, we have a handful of songs that we purchased on other computers that are no longer available to us. I emailed Apple a couple weeks ago and have not received any answer on how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am afraid Apple has a download once policy, but you have done the right thing contacting them as I understand they they will occasionally make an exception in special circumstances and allow another download.
    Here is a link to an iTunes store contact page, but I expect you have that already:

    I can't authorize some music from my Ipod nano...it was purchased using an old email that I no longer have access to. When I type in my information to recover my password, it says my information is incorrect. Can I do something to move the music from my old Apple ID to my new one?

    You'll want to contact Apple Support by phone to have them walk you through the process of getting this older account cleaned up and your issue resolved.

  • Does anyone know how to save / preserve image maps when updating graphics?

    Hello all,
    I'm currently working on a RH7 HTML project, which I've designed to be used in support of a software application.
    Some of the application's dialogue boxes have quite complex multi-tabbed GUIs, so when it comes to describing their functionality, you often end up with a long list below the graphic image. What this means of course, is that the user is forever scrolling up and down to make reference between the GUI and the explanatory text.
    I hit upon an idea I'd used previously, whereby I created popups to multiple image map hotspots. It works like a dream and the client and users really like the concept - but there's a snag (apparently).
    Because the application is still in development. some of those GUIs are (and will continue to) change. No problem with that either - until I try and insert the updated graphic. Poof !! All my hotspots disappear . . .
    Surely I'm not alone in trying this approach and there must be some way of preserving the hotspots?
    Any suggestions?
    Bob (in a UK time zone)

    Hi there
    It sounds like you are using the standard methods of inserting an image. Don't do that!
    All you need to do in these cases is to use Windows Explorer to save the updated image using the same file name and replacing the former image. When you do this your other data will remain intact. If the new image is a different size, just right-click it inside the RoboHelp HTML editor and choose Reset Size. You also may need to tweak your hotspots if things shifted some.
    Cheers... Rick

    Use the Export item from the File menu and select Word at the top.

  • How can you listen to music when you don't have an Internet or cellular connection?

    Is it possible to access your library and Match?

    Yes, just not all of it.
    As you play music from the cloud, it gets saved to your device so the next time you play it, you don't need to be connected to the internet. That's why there's a setting to "show all music" - if you turn that off, you'll just see the songs that you have with you already, and can play without internet access.
    You can also choose to download songs, albums or entire playlists, and those will be available later when you don't have a connection.

  • How to save a file locally when executing backgroud job??

    Hi guys!
    Hope you can help...
    I need to be able to save a file (text file) locally on my machine when Im running my report in the background...
    Basically my program works like this:
    I have a Selection Screen where the user makes a selection, and enters where on his/her local machine a generated text file (.txt) needs to be saved when F8 has been pressed.
    But, it should ALSO be possible for this generated text file to be saved to the same location on the local machine if the program is run as a background job...
    Is that possible??  or can one only save stuff when you run things in the background on the Application Side??  Do I have to use "OPEN DATASET" keywords, or is there a Function Module you know of??
    POINTS WILL BE REMOVED!!!
    tks
    Christiaan
    Edited by: Julius Bussche on Jul 11, 2008 8:34 PM

    Hello,
    It is not possible to save file locally when running the program in background. It will be only saved on the application server.
    We had a similar requirement earlier. We developed another program which is executed after this program which downloads the file from the application server to the user desktop. This is just one simple additional step which should solve your problem.
    Hope this helps.
