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.
Thanks in Advance

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 can i transfer my music library in itunes to my phone,all the music was on my phone until i did an upgrade then I lost them.

Connect your phone to your computer, click on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes, then do the following:
On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings check "Sync only checked songs and videos"
In your music library check all the songs you want to sync to your phone
Confirm that there are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
Confirm that you have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
Check "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
Sync your phone

                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 do I get the Air to add my music library to iTunes?

I successfully used migration assistant to transfer all my music from a Windows PC to my new Mac Air. How do I get the Air to add my music library to iTunes?

msailar wrote:
thanks for the hint Chris. I took your meaning of the word "respind" as restarting my Air after the migration.
Actually, it was "respond" (to this post).
If you are not sure of anything below, post back before deleting anything.
You can simply copy the items tin the migrated user to your current user account.
Drag the Music folder, Pictures folder and Documents folder to /Users/Shared.
Then log out of this user and log into your regular user account.
Open 2 finder windows. On teh Finder icon in the dock, right click - New Finder window
Open one to Users/Shared & the other to your user.
On Shared, open Music and drag the contents to your user Music folder.
Do the same for Pictures and Documents (into the same folders).
After it finishes copying, open iTunes and everything should be there.
You can then delete /Users/Shared/Music/ folder.
Do the same for Pictures & Documents.
After everything is copied and you are sure it's in your current user folder, go to System prefs > Users & Accounts and you can delete the new user that you did Migration Assistant with.

After creating a new playlist in iTunes, how can I add my entire music library --at once-- to the new playlist. I want to download all my music from Icloud at once on my Macpro

After creating a new playlist in iTunes, how can I add my entire music library --at once-- to the new playlist. I want to download all my music from Icloud at once on my Macpro

You have two separate questions here...
To get all your music into one playlist, select Music in the sidebar and click the Songs view at the top. Then, highlight all the songs and drag them into your playlist.
I don't know if it's possible to download all Purchased content (or do you mean iTunes Match content?) at once; try a few Google searches.

ive got a laptop from a friend, she cleared everything off it. ive downloaded itunes and for some reason all her music has appeared in the library. How do i delete her music from the itunes libary so i can add my own music?

In iTunes, select the music you want to delete (⌘+a to select all) and hit Delete on your keyboard.
Also delete the music files in Finder. Also make sure you have your own Apple ID and iTunes account and logged in.

How to 'start over' with music library?

Hi, Newbie here. Brand new Ipod touch 32G, 3rd gen. Yesterday i setup my itunes account and brought in my music libary, then synced to my ipod. Now i realize I have a LOT of music in my library I don't like and don't want. I want to delete the files from both my computer and my ipod. What I would like to do is delete the files from my computer and then replace the entire music library in itunes and my ipod; in essence I want to start over. I have not put anything else on my ipod yet. What is the best way for me to proceed? Thanks.

Separate out the songs you want to keep ( as well as anything else you want, videos, etc. . ) into a separate folder.
Copy it to some place safe and then nuke iTunes which will zap all the stuff you don't want, all the database files and so on (Be thorough, nothing should remain which means the iTunes Media folder goes along with everything else.).
No re-install iTunes and use the "Add Folder" command to put the stuff you've saved back into iTunes.

How do I refresh the music in my itunes library?

How do I refresh the music in my itunes library? After several days of ripping cd's, merging numerous libraries, and deleting a ton of duplicates, I basically need itunes to start fresh. Suggestions?

Well you could just delete everything from iTunes, without deleting the files, and then import the media folder. Or you could delete the iTunes Library.itl file and let iTunes scan your media when it starts up. Or you could use iTunes Folder Watch with its option to Check for dead tracks on startup selected.
In general it is easier to use iTunes to manage the media folder rather than manipulating things by hand and then getting iTunes to play catch up. I have a script called DeDuper for automatic deduping, see this thread for background

How to Update Musica Library in iTunes

I choose to manually sync the music in my PC to my Ipod so my iTunes is really outdated regarding the music in my Ipod, how can I update the iTunes list only? Thank you

I mean that I unchecked the option for iTunes to syncronize automatically with my Ipod I choose to manually sync my Ipod with only the folders of music I want to add. I use two computers one at home one at work, I dont use very often the PC at work, but I want the Music Library in the iTunes in that PC to have a list of all my songs currently on my Ipod. Because I use mainly my PC at home the music library in the PC at work doesnt have all the music library currently on my Ipod, how can I update the music library so both are equal?

Just add your music to iTunes and sync your iPhone

Why do podcasts I add appear in music library but not in podcasts ?

I personally find iTunes to be deeply counter-intuitive and confusing, so this maybe a simple user error. I'm adding podcasts from a hard disk. They were downloaded some time ago, under linux, from BBC Radio using the 'getiplayer' app. They exist as mp3 files on my harddisk, within a 'My Music' folder (my mistake).
When I add music files to iTunes from 'My Music' the podcasts are addded to the music library. When I delete them from that library, sending the files to trash, then add them from the original source to the Podcasts library, they appear back in the Music library but are not listed under Podcasts
What am I doing wrong?

There have always, well for the past few years, written installers that just create a mess. All installed applications should appear in Finder, Applications. Not all of those will appear in Launchpad. When you encounter one that does not appear in the correct way, all you can do is manually move things around so it is consistent with the way apps should work.

How do I move a music file in iTunes on my PC onto my iPad to add to an iMovie project?

CBellC-
I do not have iMovie, so I can't try this!
Run iTunes with your iPad connected to the computer, either by the USB cable or by WiFi. Select the iPad under DEVICES in iTunes. Click on Apps at the top of the window and scroll down to File Sharing. If iMovie appears there, select it. The Documents window to the right is where you transfer files to (Add) and from (Save To) the iPad.
