I cannot find a way to back up my i tunes library on DVD as before with new OS 10.5. Does anybody have aswer
Thanks in advance
You have posted in the itunes U forum. Itunes U is the place where colleges universities and museums post educational material for students.
Perhaps posting in the appropriate forum would help.
Just copy everything to the USB stick.

I started backing up my iTunes library on DVDs
I started to back up my iTunes library on DVDs some time ago but ran out of DVDs. I now have a new supply in but I can't access the back up option under file/library - it doesn't appear at all. All I get access to is organise library, export library, export list. Could this be because I stopped half-way through? Can anybody tell me how to continue with my back up please? Thanks a lot.
No it's because they made a change in the way you back up your Library. I haven't been able to get an answer as to how we are suppose to do it in the 10.4 version. If anyone knows how please share the information as it is really getting frustrating.

Is there a way to back up your itunes library onto a disk?
i need to back up my itunes library onto a disk, so i don't lose all my music again, is their a way to do this?
Most people find backing up to CDs or DVDs woefully inadequate with modern media files and library sizes. In addition, when you change the tags on some files then you have to back up the whole thing again to a whole new set of DVDs rather than just update a few files. Definitely get an external drive (it will be cheaper in the long run) and make backing up your iTunes files part of a strategy to back up the whole hard drive.

Backing up entire iTunes library to DVD
I am trying to backup my library to a dvd by file, library, backup to DVD. I am able to check the fields in the backup box but when I hit the backup, it does nothing. I cannot use the cancel button either. If I close this box, I get another box which states I need to highlight the playlist I want to backup. I want to backup the entire library.

Mary,
Nowadays people don't back up to CD/DVD. They get an *external hard drive* and copy over their entire iTunes folder, and whatever else they are backing up.
The advantages are (1) this method does not depend on iTunes's horribly unreliable burning capability (2) you can look at the external and see that the stuff you backed up is really there. (If you want to see an unhappy person, it is when they try to restore from CD/DVD and discover that it did not burn correctly in the first place.) (3) it lets you back up your other valuable files besides your music. -
I have an iMac running with Parallels. Last year, my System Updates from Apple started popping up on PC side and I cannot find a way to link them back to the Apple side of machine. Cannot update iTunes to latest version where I use it.
Hello, do you mean the files end up on the PC side, or the notifications?
On the Mac side try this...

I am using a MacBook Pro. I simply cannot find a way to attach images adjusted in Lightroom as attachments and/or without massive degradation in quality. I follow the LR attach email process as specified by LR, the photos appear in the email seemingly embedded and the recipients of the email cannot save the attachment.
You are welcome. Just finished a chat session with an Apple support rep and confirmed the matte option no longer available. Seems lots has changed since I bought my 17” 19 months back:). They did say that there were after market screen films available from places like amazon
Have never used anything like that though. My wife has a 2008 MBP 15” with gloss and I can say it is a nice screen finish, you just have to be careful of lighting from behind you. All my iMacs were glossy and I did learn to compensate for the added brilliance the screen brought to the photos. The new soft proofing feature of LR5 seems to better estimate the level of brightness of the printed work, compared to past versions of the s/ware.
In any case, in my opinion you really can’t go wrong with the apple product. I bought my first iMac in mid 1999 and have never looked back. I donated that machine to a pre-school in 2008, it was running OSX version 2 or 3 I think. I did run Photoshop 7.0 on an IBM laptop for a time (windows XP). I think I had one of the very first versions of Adobe Camera Raw on that machine. I digress, sorry.
The chat representative did confirm that the 17” is out of production and I’m guessing Apple found the market for the big laptop just wasn’t there. They did mention that 17” MBP’s show up as “certified refurbished” units from time to time. Suggest you might explore that option with a local Apple store in the UK, assuming Apple has store front operations off this continent of course.
Please feel free to contact me with further questions if you wish.
Take care, Gordy -

Question
i do not like inbox search and want to use google but i cannot find any way to remove inbox--in fact when i search for it to remove you would think it is not there--but it is and i cant get it off. anyone know how? edit
DetailsWhat you should see on a restart is a black screen followed by a screen with the Apple (at which point you let go of the two buttons). There is no progress bar, just the Apple. The Apple will stay there for 15 seconds or so, then the "Slide to Unlock" screen will redisplay.
But, I don't think the reset will fix it for you. I just tested it, and it comes back on with the zoom still on. The only way to get it to zoom out is the tapping with the 3 fingers.
I said to double-tap....MY BAD! You need to triple-tap with three fingers!
Try that and see if it will display the zoom menu for you, or if it will zoom back out.
Cheers,

want to use icloud on my macbook and cant because I am using OSX10.6.8 - I want to upgrade this but I cant upgrade to mountain lion as my mac does not support this - cannot find a way to go to Version 10.7.4 which i understand supports icloud - help to do this please
If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there.
searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.

I have a lot of various book mark folders with websites contained within each folder. I am able to sort the websites within each folder alphabetically by name but I cannot find a way to sort the bookmark folders themselves alphabetically by name.I am not talking about in a view mode but in the way they are displayed when I click on my bookmarks tab. Can someone explain to me how to accomplish this other than manually dragging them as this is extremely hard for me due to the fact that I am a quadriplegic with limited hand movement dexterity
Bookmark folders that you created are in the Bookmarks Menu folder. "Sort" that folder.

I recently downloaded Mlountain Lion on my Imac. It shows that I have an update for Evernote that should be downloaded, but I cannot find out how to complete this update. It asks for me to sign in with my email address, but does not show how to do this. Please help!
I have done exactly what you said. When I check "update", a screen drops down that asks that I enter my email address to continue........but i cannot find any way to do this.
In the past, all I would do is check "update", and the update would take place. Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, this has changed, and i do not know how to do this simple thing.......the app store shows an update is due to be updated, but i cannot find out how to do it. -
I accidentally set up my new ipad in itunes under the name of my existing ipad and need to set it up as a new device. Help. I cannot find a way to start fresh.
That's probably not a good idea to try to share apps since you will have to switch ID's each time you update apps and sync apps from iTunes.
And technically - according to Apple's terms - you cannot share apps using different ID's. You can actually lock yourself out of an ID for 90 days if you switch ID's and if you associate the iPad with another ID.
The bold type is a copy and paste from the site that I referenced below.
When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.
