Hello there, RJ Quick.
I've located the following Knowledge Base article that might be the information you're looking for:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12165
The following section may be of help:
Change where imported files are stored
Choose iTunes > Preferences and click Advanced.
Click Change and select a new location for your files.From now on, new songs and other items you import will be stored in the new location. Songs you’ve already imported stay in their current location.To go back to storing imported files in the iTunes folder, choose iTunes > Preferences, click Advanced, and click Reset.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro D.

  • Hi, I have purchased an audio book on iTunes from an iMac and it does not show up on the cloud so I can't download it on my iPhone. Does anyone know why and how I can proceed to transfer the audio book purchase?

    Hi
    I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
    Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
    Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
    Thank you,
    Sanya

    Can you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?

    Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books.

  • On my iPad home screen, the mail app used to indicate the number of new emails I had with a number in a red circle.  This has vanished since I upgraded.  Does anyone know why, and how to restore this?

    On my IPad 2 home screen, the mail app used to indicate the number of new messages with a number in a red circle, next to the app.  This has vanished, I think about the same time as when I upgraded to the new OS.  Does anyone know why and how to restore this feature? 

    Thanks.  While you were replying to my question, I went into notifications and figured
    it out.  Appreciate the quick response!

  • Hi, my mac has stopped playing some avi files (that used to work). I can see the video. Does anyone know why and what i can do? My version of quicktime is 7.6.9.

    Hi i have avi files saved in iphoto that i used to be able to play through quicktime. However in the last few weeks i cannot play many of these files. I can see the videos and click on them but nothing happens (i have version 7.6.9 of quicktime). Does anyone know why this has happened and what i can do about this?
    Thanks.

    What do you mean by what audio/video formats are involved? These are all files from several digital cameras.
    As previously stated, AVI is a file container. It is somewhat old and its originator, Microsoft, dropped official support of it over a decade ago. However, it remains popular with PC users since almost any valid audio and/or video compression format can be stuffed to the file which synchronizes the content by interleaving the individual audio and video frames. The compression format is the specific manner in which the audio and video data are encoded as it is placed in the AVI container. You can find the compression format by inspecting the file in the Finder "Info" window, or in the "Inspector" window of the QT player (or other media player) if the file can be opened.
    For instance, one popular compression combination would be to place DivX encoded video and MP3 audio in an AVI file container. However, neither DivX nor MP3 is natively supported by the QT player. (Although iTunes will natively support the MP3 audio.) Therefore, people who wish to play such files in the QT 7 Player would normally install either the DivX component or Perian but not both. Either installation will independently play such files in the QT Player, but if both are installed, the file will usually stop working since these two codecs can create a playback conflict.
    However, the AVI container could just as easily contain DV along with DV audio. In this case, the file should play correctly in QT since this compression format is natively supported by the basic component configuration that comes in every current OS installation. Therefore, if such files suddenly stopped playing, this could be an indication that a component has been moved or deleted or that your system or QT embedded structure has become corrupted.

  • Does anyone Know why and AICC published file don´t display in the LMS?

    I have published a file as an AICC file and got the URL added into an LMS, (Sumtotal), when I try to launch the content the LMS window keeps saying Loading, however; when I click the URL link from my browser the content displays with no problem.
    I have been reviewing what might be the problem because I used to create content with Captivate 4 and I had no problem.
    Can anyone answer some questions I have:
    With the change to Captivate 5, a newer version of Flash is required?
    Is the file trying to call the Adobe website or may call items not on the domain we have permissions to (internally) access? if so can you provide what the domains are?
    I appreciate any help you can provide.
    Thanks

    We have encountered this issue as well, not just with Captivate 4 but with Adobe Presenter 7.0.7 as well.
    With Captivate 4, we have found that content published as AS3 and AICC will hang on the 'Initializing LMS...' page when launched from our SumTotal LMS (TotalLMS v8.2) if that content is located on a remote content server.  It will, however, launch properly and track correctly when the content is installed on a content server that is on the same domain as (and thus local to) the LMS itself.
    With Presenter 7.0.7 (which only publishes to AS3--there is no option for AS2), we have found that content published as AICC will take an excessive amount of time to load when launched from our SumTotal LMS and will not track correctly if that content is located on a remote content server.  It will, however, launch properly and track correctly when the content is installed on a content server that is on the same domain as the LMS itself.
    So, a common theme here is AS3.  We did try publishing a C4 test sample to different Flash Player versions as AS2, and it appears there is no issue there.  It's when we publish to AS3 as AICC and install on a remote content server that issues start cropping up.
    My gut is telling me that this is a crossdomain policy issue.  Would love for Adobe to investigate and offer a solution soon.

  • I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

    I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder."
    I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

    Look in your Home > Music folder.  There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl  You want to guide iTunes to that file.  If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
