I tried to create a new library for my itunes to put music on for a separate device.

When I tried to get back to my orginial library, It didnt have any recent downloads on there. It stopped at like 4 months ago. Any changes I had made after that werent even on there. Now Im scared to even plug my device up because it will take music away on there I want to keep. Dont really know what to do. Ive tried opening the Itunes Library.itl and it still isnt the most recent form of my library. Any hints would be appreciated

Double-clicking on an itl file opens the last library that iTunes successfully opened, not necessarily the file that was clicked on. You need to press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to launch iTunes and keep holding until prompted to create or choose a library. If iTunes opens normally close and try again. Use the choose option and browse to the folder holding your other library file. Use the same method to switch back again.
Selected playlists for each device are much easier to manage in my opinion.

I created a new library for my girlfriend using the "hold shift while launching" method but now i cannot find my library. How can i retreive it?

I tryed to create a new library to use one computer with my nano and my girlfriends iphone 4. for some reason when i did this i can no longer find all of my stuff. all I want to do now is start over and create a new user profile for her and get my library back.

Does the original library file still exist on the computer? Hopefully when creating the new library it was done in a seperate folder as I do not believe iTunes allows for two library files in the same location.

How do I duplicate the exact playlists from my iphone 4th gen to my new ipod 4th gen 64gb? So far I've created a new library for it, duplicated all the apps, books

I'v been using an iphone 4 (16gb) for a year now, and have just got an ipod touch 4gen, 64gb. I created a new library for this, and most of what I have managed to transfer everything onto the ipod touch. However, although all my music has transferred, the playlists have not. Do I have to transfer them manually? That is, creating every playlist again, which would be a nuisance since I have 48 playlists and almost 250 pieces. All the music have been bought from itunes.
What I plan to use the ipod for is mainly for books, magazines and itunes U podcasts. Most other apps and music will be the same on both iphone and ipod. Both are under my same apple id. Please help, 'cos I've been searching for an answer on the internet and can't really find one. Everything else has transferred expect the playlists.

- Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

I use multiple libraries with itunes - should I create a new library for a 2nd iphone

I use multiple iTunes libraries to manage multiple devices from the same PC. I'm purchasing an iPhone 6 and currently have a library for my iPhone 4. Would I create a new library for this new device? Also, to restore all content to my new phone, Will this restore be done from the existing iPhone 4 library? Is this process documented?

I can't address specific issues regarding iPhones, but in general you can manage multiple iDevices from a single iTunes library. The test approach is to maintain one or more playlists for each iDevice you use, and configure the latter to sync only from the relevant playlists:
This article: Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support documents Apple's guidance regarding transferring content from one iOS device to another.

Hi JkeeneSoldano,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
From:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

Creating a new library for Webpart pages, or wiki pages

We are using sp2013 in O365, on a site collection that is using the publishing feature.
We want to create another library for content pages where we can create either Webpart pages or Enterprise Wiki pages. I can create a new library and add the appropriate content types so that those types of pages are options when creating a new page.
But when I open the library and try to create a page based on the "(Enterprise Wiki Page) Basic Page" page layout (or any other page layout content type that I added to that library), the dialog comes up and shows it will save to the "/pages/"
library (it is shown in the un-editable part of the "URL Name field"), and not in the new library where I initiated the creation request. When I click save, I get a correlation ID error.
Am I doing something wrong here?

Hi ,
I could reproduce this issue in my SharePoint 2013 Online when I created a new document library and add “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type into the library then create a page using this content type.
It seems that publishing pages only can be created in the Pages library. And the SharePoint Publishing Infrastructure can only handle a single Pages library per Web site, it's a physical limitation of the software. If you want to create
multiple Pages libraries, You could create sub webs to do it.
Also, as there is a Correlation ID about this issue, you can use it to check more information about this issue. However, in SharePoint Online, we could not see the log files, they are controlled by Microsoft. I suggest you create a new thread on Office
365, there are some backend engineers who can check the log. You will get better help with SharePoint Online.

Creating a new library for backing up, can I delete my old iTunes Library?

Hey there I was wondering this, I am creating a new folder for my library because the old one had a lot of music I decided to delete. My question is can I delete the old Library or would that prevent me from being able to use iTunes?
Thank you to anyone that helps
Message was edited by: WhalesEatWorms

Either way. If you want to delete the current library and start a new one with the new songs, you can. If you'd prefer to add the new songs to the existing library, and then delete the current songs, you can do that too.
As long as you don't delete the songs that you want, you will be able to use iTunes.

How to create a new library for my wife's iPod

Hi all,
I've been trying to get the right answer to this for a long time, but I seem to be continually coming up against very complicated solutions that are too intricate for me to actually try. I hope someone will have the knowledge (and the patience with me!) to help.
My wife received an iPod as a gift from the Mayor of San Francisco. It came pre-loaded with a bunch of songs about "The City by the Bay." It's a Nano, so it doesn't have iOS 5, the iCloud, etc.
So I have two questions.
(1) I have my own iPod, iTunes account, and my own laptop. My wife only has a work laptop so she can't load iTunes onto it (which would make this very simple).
(2) I would like to be able to create a situation in which:
(a) She can create her own library on my computer. Her library would include a lot of music from my library (but not all). In other words, I want to move some music from my library to her library, both of which are on my laptop.
(b) She can sync her iPod on my computer.
(c) She can load all the San Francisco music into "her" library.
Is there a simple way to do this? I don't want to do the "separate playlists" variation because that's not how I want to run my own library. I want that to remain as crisp and clean as possible.
In short, probably creating a new User account on my MacBook Pro, is there a way that I can "give" her a few dozens of my LPs, but then have pretty separate syncing experiences? As I say, I've read a million different treatments of this, and they all seem more complicated than I'm ready to do.
Thank you!!!!

Or could I just plug her iPod into my computer and "manually manage music"? What if it's somehow already set to "automatically sync"? She would lose the music that's already on her iPod, wouldn't she?

I created a new library (shift-open itunes) but now I cannot get my old itune library to open. Help please

I created a new itunes library on my PC by following the proper procedure. (shift - open itunes-create library). But now i cannot find my old itunes library, so that I can open it. I know my music has not been lost but I cannot acces it. When I open itunes by holding down the shift, it does not show any designation for my old libray. help please.

The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

My iTunes randomly cuts off songs at the end. I've tried to create a new library and reimport my old library, but to no avail. Can anyone help? :)?

Hi, I am using a MacBook Pro, and downloaded the new iTunes update. I have OS X Lion 10.7.4. It all of sudden is randomly cutting off some songs before the very end of the song. I've tried to read past posts and create new libraries and re-import the old one, but it doesn't seem to help. It is not all of my purchased songs, nor is it all of my downloaded from CD songs, it's just a particularly random set of songs (I haven't checked them all, but it happens every 5 songs or so when I play the whole library on shuffle). This never happened to me before with other versions of iTunes, and when I called the support line the guy says he has never heard of this problem before... !
I have 3000 songs, so I don't want to manually bring each one in again. I am also not super technologically brilliant, so if you have had this problem too and have a simple answer, please help !!!

I have a similar problem with Itunes - the funny thing is it only does it on my Mac and not my PC running Windows 7 - seems strange the Apple software runs better on a Windows computer. There are other posts about this here on the forums that have been running for two years with no solution - and I was just about to buy a new Ipod - oh well.

My laptop (macbook air) asked me which library I wanted to open iphoto with but there were no options of libraries to open it with - I had to create a new library and all of my photos were gone.

My laptop said I was running out of space on my start up disk and then I opened iphoto and it asked which library I wanted to open it with. There were no options available so I had to create a new library for my iphoto. None of my photos were on iphoto when I opened it again. The same thing happened with my photobooth - all of my photos have disappeared.
I tried to do alt + command when opening iphoto but it didn't help, however I found some of my photos in the masters folder I found when I right clicked on the iphoto file.
Please help I have all of my photos from the last 3 years on my iphoto!

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
have you found where is your original library is located? Is there both an Old Masters and Masters folder in it?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
how much free space on your boot drive? It's strongly recommended to maintain a minimum of 10-15 GB of free space for optimal system and application performance.

Problems when creating a new parameter for a parametric role

I'm trying to create a new parameter for a parametric role, but it seems that it is never updated, because the BPM engine does not return any error.
The scenario is: I have a process that has the role "Brands_Admin", the brands are populated by Web Service dynamically, then the parameters of the role would be those brands. In this case, if a new brand is registered (WS returns a new brand), I simply create a new parameter for the role through the "process administrator" of the BPM Enterprise.
I'm trying to create the new parameter as follows:
dirSession                 = DirectorySession.currentEngineSession;
dirOrganizationalRole       = DirOrganizationalRole.fetch(session : dirSession, id : "Brands_Admin");
String[] parametricRoles       = dirOrganizationalRole.parametricValues;
parametricRolesCount      = parametricRoles.length();
parametricRoles[parametricRolesCount]      = "NEW_BRAND";
dirOrganizationalRole.parametricValues      = parametricRoles;
dirOrganizationalRole.update();
dirOrganizationalRole.refresh();
for (int i=0; i<dirOrganizationalRole.parametricValues.length(); i++) {
     logMessage(dirOrganizationalRole.parametricValues);
In the code above, the BPM Studio will print the new parameter correctly, but in next activity (like a Screenflow) when I try to get the parameters of that role again, there are only the parameters that were registered using the BPM Studio, the parameters that are created programmatically not appear.
Anyone know the reason?
An user with the same problem: http://forums.tangosol.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=839253&tstart=1

When a project that contains this logic to create a new parameter for a parametric role programmatically is deployed in BPM Enterprise, some strange behaviours occurs.
The first is that I cannot see through the process administrator the new parameter that was created for the parametric role.
The second is that if I create this new parameter through process administrator and associate an user to the role that contains the new parameter I cannot access the deployment process. In workspace (authenticated with user that is associated with the role that contains the new parameter) I cannot see anything about the process.

Can't Create a NEW LIBRARY

I'm trying to create a new library to do some maintenance on certain files (I'll spare you the details as to WHY).
I can't figure out how to create a new library.
I've tried holding the SHIFT key when starting iTunes per the instructions here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/8.0/en/15502.html
and here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589
No matter how I start iTunes I get the same result - it just opens normally without the desired dialog box asking if I want to create a new library. I've tried starting it from the desktop icon, the start menu (both pinned and via "All Programs > iTunes"). I've tried using both the mouse and the keyboard (Enter).
Is this some bug I've run into or am I just not trying it during the right phase of the moon. Sometimes iTunes is just so hard to use and figure out! (Who'd ever have thought you'd have to hold SHIFT when launching? It should just be File > New Library or something that is at least VISIBLE.)

as you are using itunes on XP, there is a much more simple way
Go to My Docs > My music
rename itunes to itunes.old or something. Create new folder called itunes.
Start itunes, and you'll have a new library. once finished, reverse the above

I tried to create a new library for my itunes to put music on for a separate device.
