I Tunes 6 doesn't see all files

I have my I Tunes folder on an external firewire drive. I notice if I search for certain songs, or artists on the drive I Tunes doesn't find it. If I open the I Tunes folder I see the songs and artists in folders. Any help plz

First go to Preferences->Advanced and make sure your music folder location is set to that external drive. If not change it to that, also make sure "copy music to iTunes folder" is ON.
If some music is still not showing up in the iTunes library, go File->Add to Library and choose the iTunes Folder on your external drive. It will look through the foler and it will add any music not already in the LIbrary. It will not create duplicates.
Does that work?

PSE9 Organizer - How to see all files in Folder view?

In v8, there is a tab under Edit/Preferences named "Folder Location View" that allowed one to select either to see all files or just those in the folder that is selected. I can't find this option in PSE9. Anyone know what happened to it?
PSE0 defaults to seeing only those files in the selected folder, which is normally my preference as well, except when I am doing certain things and then I really need to see all files in all folders.
For example, I need/want to write my tags to the file meta data in all of my files, but I have to go to each folder individually to do this and then I can only do it on that individual folder. I really would like to be able to select all of my files and fire it off (yes, I know that would take forever, but I could go do something else while it is processing.)
This is the second reason that upgrading to PSE9 is really downgrading. One shouldn't lose functionality that has existed in several (all?) previous versions!
Hopefully, this setting has just moved and I can't find it. If not, Adobe, please add it back in ASAP!!
Thanks,

Oh, I forgot to comment on the ability to create an album instantly by folder name.
That really seems like a pretty useless "feature" for all but the most challenged user.
All you need to do without the feature is select all photos in a folder (ctrl a) and then drag them to the folder name. That just doesn't seem to be all that difficult.
Thanks again.

Why cant I see all files on my SD card?

On my old PC I just connected my Nikon camera and transfered my pictures and the deleted on the camera SD card. On my Mac that seems impossible. First of all its not possible to connect(USB) the camera. That is possible to solve by just entering the SD card directly to the Mac. The next issue though is that I cant see all files. When I have deleted the pictures some kind of files are still on the card meaning there isnt a full memory space left. Again, on the PC this is clera but on the Mac I cant see the files. Can somebody help me?

Well, a card always has a very small portion for its own system on it. And, deleting the cards on the computer is not the best idea - it may work for some time, but it is best to format the card in the camera (which erases it). After you drag the pictures to the trash and empty it, what exactly is left on the card? Can you post a screenshot of the remaining file(s) please.

I created the XML file in Adobe Priemer Pro. Final Cut doesn't see this file. The file in the list not the active. Prompt please.

The XML format Premiere uses is not supported in FCPX. The only way I know of that may work is to go through FCP7 and then use 7toX to get to FCPX.

AEx doesn't see all of my files

Hi, I installed an Airdisk yesterday. It's a 1TB Seagate Freeagent formatted in FAT32 with 840GB in a folder called itunes files\lossless. It's assigned as the Z: drive on both my Windows XP machines. That folder contains subfolders for each artist (1395) and below that by album (2700).
First machine worked fine. It saw all and added all the files to itunes.
Second machine added only half the files to itunes. When I look at the z:\itunes files\lossless directory, it only shows the folders it added, i.e. it's missing half. If I enter one of the "missing" folder names in explorer, it comes up, and can play the files in it, but it still doesn't show in the directory. Because it doesn't show all my files in the directory, itunes won't add them.
Currently, the first machine shows the same subset of my files. It still plays all of them through iTunes. The files are in place, the pointers in itunes are correct, but the directory doesn't show all the folders/files.
I have renamed the drive and reset the AEx, but it still shows the same subset of my files/folders.
How can I get all my files recognized?

It's not a time issue. The directory loaded, just many of the files weren't there. This was on two pc's and one mac.
What do you mean enabling NTFS? I had a two hour service call that came down to Airport not recognizing NTFS.
I solved the problem by taking the drive off the airport and connecting via USB to a pc, creating a new directory, moving the files to the new directory. Voila, all there. Just had to load them to itunes which was actually a real pain on the mac, as it got overloaded and slowed to a crawl--would have taken a couple of weeks at the rate it was going. I had to manually add a bit at a time to get it to work. Ugh. Will have to again if the Airdisk flakes out again.
Very dissatisfied.
Plus, today I attached my portable WD MyPassport (also FAT32) to the USB hub on which the other drive sits, and the Airport went bonkers, unable to hold a connection (wired or wireless) with mac or pc, and bluescreened my XP laptop when I tried to rut Airport Utility.
This is a product that does not do what it claims, in my experience so far.

Snow Leopard finder doesn't list all files on Windows 7 volumes

From my Macbook Pro (10.6.8), I can connect to my Mac Pro, while it is running Windows 7 in Boot Camp, in order to access the Mac Pro's 6 volumes (1 Boot Camp, 5 Mac volumes). This is using SMB via Finder's 'Connect to server…' on an Airport network.
However, Finder never displays all the files and folders on any of the Mac volumes it connects to through Windows 7. It seems to show approximately the first 18-9 files and folders, and then nothing. The same applies when I open a nested folder — it doesn't list all of its contents.
Any ideas as to what's causing this and how I can fix it? I have searched all over but can't find any answers yet, so I'm hoping someone here has seen this before.

Thanks for the reply, but I do have the Restore Windows box checked (see below). And the Resume features info (cnet link) only addresses how to turn the feature off, either selectively or globally. I'm simply looking for the functionality that I had with Snow Leopard and now seems to be absent. Maybe it's a bug in my Finder.

Itunes doesn't see all the data on all my albums

I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong, or what. I've got about 10GB of MP3's on my computer, when I open them on Windows Media Player or windows explorer I see all the info; album, artist, genre, everything, for all my files. when I add the files to itunes, I only get the info on about half the files, the rest just show the file names, but none of the other info. makes it hard to sort the files out, especially since itunes doesn't give you the option to see the file paths. of course since I didn't import the songs using itunes, it won't get the info from the internet.
any ideas?

First off, I would STRONGLY suggest that a external hard drive would make you life much easier by at least being able to back up your songs on the external drive for when you need them. Even if you don't want them in the iTunes library, you can have them all ready on the external to be re-added as needed. You can get 100's of gigs for under $100 shipped.
Anyway, since you used Yamipod, are all the songs back on the computer? If so, I would go ahead and restore the iPod, let iTunes then resync everything back to the iPod, then switch it back to manual and see if the restore and resync clears up the issue.

Import doesn't see new files

I am saving a file from Elements 9 into a folder that is managed by LR3. Usually when i save to this folder I go into LR3 and do a sync folder and the file shows up. All of a sudden this has gotten very squirrely. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. when i saved the file to my desktop and try to do an import from there, LR doesn't even see the file at all, which is why i'm guessing the sync isn't working. I've tried saving them as JPG, PSD, TIFF all with no success. anyone else seen this problem?
i am running a mac with snow leopard 10.6.5, LR3 3.2, PSE9.

Lr will only sync with your desktop if there are already images within your library that are already stored there. Likewise, it will only sync with subfolders if "Include subfolders" is enabled in Import window.

ITunes doesn't see all photos in Adobe

Have 60GB iPod. 28GB music. I'm using iTunes 5.0 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0. I have 11,000+ photos so I've created three collections in PSE with 50, 300 and 900 photos in each. Syncing iTunes to these three collections, iTunes only sees 475 photos in one collection, 3 in another and zero in the third. It only syncs the found 478 photos. Why doesn't it see all of the photos in the three collections? I have deleted the iPod Cache folder then re-synced and this did nothing.

From Germany with not perfect English:
I had similar problem. Files that were not transferred had either no file-ending (.tif and .jpg-files without these endings are not synct) or a wrong ending (.pdf for example).
And the Apple-Hotline told me, a next iPod-software-update would allow a better sorting photos on the iPod. (Actually you can not use folders in folders, and all Photoes are sorted by date; a little help may be a count-number at the beginning of the file-name: 01.... 02.... 03... This helps, however it is not a good work for so many photos as you have.)

Finder copy doesn't copy all files

I have a dedicated disk for my Aperture masters, and to back this up while also defragging (according to a method described by Kevin J Doyle and Matthew Bergsma on the Aperture forum) I'm simply doing a Finder copy of the masters. I may have made a mistake when I relocated my masters a few months ago, because I put all 40,000 files in a single directory, at the "root" level of the drive.
I've searched around to see if there is a limit to the number of items in a single directory, and saw guesses but nothing definitive.
The problem is that when I try to copy the files, the Finder shows all 40,000 selected, but only copies 10,000 or so. I can't figure out why. If needed I can relocate the masters again into project folders, but I'm very curious why I'm seeing the partial copy.

I've got the same problem when copying multiple large files from the desktop to a network drive on Windows Home Server (using drag/drop). The files are about 1gb each, and if I copy more than one at a time, at least one will dissapear on the target machine. This is VERY repeatable.
When I watch it closely, I can see temporary files for all files appear, and the number of items, and the total size reported in the copy status on the Mac are correct. In fact, it takes about the correct amount of time for the total size copied. However, when the copy is complete, some of the files on the target drive vanish. There is no error dialog, files just go poof. Dragging the missing files again works, as long as no more than one is copied at a time.
A test with a few small files works fine. This only fails with large files. The total copied is less than 2gb, so this doesn't seem to be a FAT32 problem. There is ample space on the destination drive (over 1Tb free). The Mac is on a wireless 802.11N lan.

I updated to Mavericks and Aperture 3.5. After the update, Aperture doesn't see referenced files. I get "No Referenced Files"

I updated to Mavericks and Aperture 3.5. All my images are referenced on a stand-alone drive. After the update, Aperture displays thumbnails, but I can't edit because Aperture doesn't see the referenced file ("image offline") and when choose all of my images and I run locate referenced files ... I get "No Referenced Files." I don't get the screen to "look" for the files.

Or did you install the new system amd new version on top of the old system? Yes.
What version did you upgrade from? 3.4
Is your Aperture library onyour internal drive or also on an external drive? External
During the update, has your Aperture library been moved in any way? No, its still where it was on the external drive.
Thanks for your help. Ideas?

On Win7 computer, how can I see all files on iPod touch?

I have an iPod touch 4.3.5 (8L1), model MC540C. When it's plugged into my Windows 7 computer, I want to be able to see all the files (not just the photos). What must i do to see all the files?
My ultimate purpose is to copy one file: the voice recording I created in the Voice Memos application. (The audio file is too big to be sent via email.)

Illass,
Thank you for your reply.
Though PhoneView is Mac only, Touch Copy has a Mac version and Windows version.
P.S. Nice avatar

New firmware update doen't allow me to see all files in iPod library...

I have a 5G/ 60GB iPod, updated to the new firmware, and I have found that now there is no way to see a "Library" style depiction of all the files on my iPod, ala the iTunes "Library" category. I have podcasts that I manage manually which do not display as "Podcasts", and the easiest way to add and delete them (sometimes I duplicate them by mistake when adding from my other computer at work)was from the "Library" style view when the iPod device name was selected. Now those podcasts do not appear in the "Music", "Movies", "TV Shows", or "Audiobooks" categories. I CAN view them by date in the "Recently Added" playlist, but duplicates cannot be deleted from this playlist. I there a "View all Files" sort of option I am unaware of, or any other solution (3rd Party) to access/ edit/ remove these files?

The checking and unchecking of songs is done in iTunes, not on the shuffle. And that may affect what is loaded in the shuffle during automatic syncing. So first check what is actually loaded on the shuffle.
If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
In the sidebar, find your shuffle under DEVICES. Click the small trianle to the left of the shuffle name to drop down its content list (indented below the shuffle). Click on Music there. The list of songs currently on the shuffle is shown to the right. Are the songs that do not play on that list, or not on that list?
