I want to get some things straight about iTunes

1) iTunes will delete songs off of you iPod if you remove it from the library? Is that just using the autosych or using manually managing too?
2) To have two libraries on iTunes, I have to create a 2nd login account on Windows? There is no other way?
3) If i have two iPods (mini and nano) with one library, will the seperate playlists for both of them show up? Or will both iPods have the same playlists? Can we share playlists and/or keep them sepereate?
4) My sister is already using iTunes v 4, but I would really like to upgrade to iTunes v5, if I upgrade will I lose her playlist/library info?
5) How do I completely back up my iTunes library/playlists? Consolidating the library isnt it is it?
I know I'm asking a lot of questions, but I am an organizational freak, and my sister is not. So it's going to be solely up to me to keep us organized, I just dont want her to lose any of her iTunes info on my account.
Thanks for you help

1) Yes, as long as you have autosynch on, songs that were removed from your library will be deleted off the iPod, too.
2) Yes, iTunes doesn't support several libraries in one (windows) account
3) It depends on what setting you choose from the iTunes Preferences (Edit->Prefs->iPod), if you check "synch checked playlists only", you'll be able to choose, which list(s) to have on each iPod.
4) I'm not quite getting this. Are you and your sister sharing music over a network or are you talking about installing v5.0.1 on a computer you both use? Either way you shouldn't lose any playlists. But since there are so many people struggling with the update to v5.0.1, I suggest you backup your/her library files (see 5)
5) No, consolidating means to merge several libraries into one. As for a backup, you can just copy/paste or burn all your music files onto some (other) drive - DVD f.e. Make sure you also make a backup of the library files, which are in \My Music\iTunes. You'll need to backup both, the .itl- and the .xml- file

  • My friend wanted to get some of the music off my itunes. when syncing it needed to udate her phone which it did - now all her photos are gone. and the last back up was from when she used my itunes 6  ago. How can we get back her photos :(Please help

    My friend wanted to get some music off my itunes - when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first - which it did. Now all her photos are gone. When we tried to restore the last back up - the only one was from when she used my itunes 6 months ago which was from her old iphone. So now it has put all her photos from her old phone onto her new iphone and deleted all the new ones. We cannot find her new photos. Please help and there was 100 new pics. Is there any way we can get them back. I already have the program Asoftech - but it doesnt seem to register the iphone only C and D drive. Please help!

    This is called "stealing". You do not have the legal right to give her the music you have in your iTunes library unless you are the copyright holder.
    when syncing it it said she had to update her phone software first
    That's not quite what it said.  Someone should have paid more attention to the great big warning about the possibility of losing data if the phone wasn't backed up.

    It restored the backup that was made on your computer 6 months ago, which did not contain those photos. You're wasting your time trying to find them on the phone. They don't exist.
    Hopefully, your friend syncs her phone to her own computer on a regular basis. She needs to plug her phone into her computer and restore it from her last backup. That will restore it to the state it was in when the backup was made.
    She also needs to get in the habit of extracting the photos on a regular basis, like she would from any other digital camera.

  • My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

    I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

    You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

    I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod.  I don't see the photos tab in I-tunes? I'm sure its user error but wanted to get some help.

    What's the origin of this external drive? It sounds very much like it's a Windows-formatted (NTFS) drive which Macs can't write to. If you can, copy the files off the drive, reformat it as Mac format (using Disk Utility) and copy the files back. If you need to continue writing to it from a Windows PC, you should format it ExFAT in Disk Utility.

  • I want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

    i want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

    Please do not delete any files from the HDD without having a current backup.
    I'm not sure what you mean when you say you've "deleted all old libraries." Can you explain that?
    If all you are wanting to do is empty the iTunes library of all music, video playlists, etc. the easiest way is to quit iTunes and, in the Finder, go to ~/Music/iTunes and simply move the .itdb, .itl and .xml files to the trash. Launch iTunes again and the library will be empty.
    You should be prompted to add content, so you can let iTunes scan the HDD if you like.

  • I own a Mac. I want to install some new programms but itunes wants me to agree with some conditions. I WILL not agree to those conditions.

    I own a Mac. I want to install some new programms but itunes wants to upgrade itself and wants me to agree with some conditions. I WILL not agree to those conditions.
    How can I install software now? The stupid screen keeps popping up that itunes wants to be updated. Going round in a circle here.

    Well, if you want to use iTunes and whatever  security or changes have been made with the iTunes Agreement have changed since last time, and to work with the iTunes Store....
    Clone your system.
    You can also turn off updates.
    Are you on Lion? And already have iTunes 11? You can manaully download and go to the support page and see what changes were made and other requirements.
    There is a forum for issues with itunes (but not with the software license and agreement)
    iTunes 11.1.3This version of iTunes resolves an issue where the equalizer may not work as expected and improves performance when switching views in large iTunes libraries. This update also includes additional minor bug fixes. Nov 5, 2013

  • Wanted to get some clarification on JavaCompiler and Reflection

    Hello,
    I am working on building a modular, dynamic framework for web apps. The idea is highly reflection driven controllers and DAO's (no real news here, everyone does this, I was just giving some background).
    One of the pieces I wanted to build was a dynamic search criteria object to pass to the DAO, used to filter collections coming back from the persistence layer. I wanted these to be runtime compiled so they would change with any changes to their corresponding data transfer object(I have written many of these, they are repetitive, and that means that they are a good candidate for a program to write for me). I settled on this because I needed to be able to fill the objects with data, and it seemed like the best way to me(I think an enum could also have worked, but I have not used these much and runtime compilation just sounds so neat).
    So I have the service built to dole out the dynamic search criteria objects, and I have them compiling with all dependencies satisfied, and that all looks good.
    Then I hit the hitch, a runtime class - MyDynamicSearchCriteriaObject is used in the following manner MyDynamicSearchCriteriaObject.class.getMethods(), causing a serious failure(one that is not caught by Exception), and the program just fails.
    So from what I have seen, this is due to the fact that reflection information on the classpath is stored at jvm startup in memory, and any runtime loaded class cannot be reflected on with the standard API (it looks like javassist is built just for this, but I have not fiddled with it much yet). I just wanted to get any thoughts anyone has on this, is my analysis way off base, is this how it works, is there some way to trigger a runtime refresh of the reflection structure (I doubt this would ever work due to the different classloaders).
    My other question is this, if you cannot reflect on runtime classloaded classes, then they will only ever really be of value if they implement a compile-time-known interface. This would allow for dynamic implementations of a given interface via runtime compilation, but not use of the runtime loaded class by it's own type definition(via reflection).
    I am a little new to all of this, this is my first stab at building such a framework, so any thoughts, help, or clarification are greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Scott

    So I really have one core question here, do you really want to understand, or do you just want to dazzle me with your credentials (which I am not impressed with at all, I find people who flaunt their credentials generally do so because it is all that they have)?
    You were obviously attempting to 'educate' me as to the benefits of code generation. That has nothing to do with your problem nor does it have anything to do with me, since obviously I am quite familar with why one would actually use code generation.
    I will answer though, one last time.
    And I still have no idea what you are talking about.I must be crazy or something, since there is probably nothing in the programming world that you could not understand, right? Generally, when you don't understand you probe with questions so you can understand. Unless you are looking to be dismissive, in which case, why even answer?
    First there are many things that I don't understand. And which I freely admit. For example GUIs. And embedded programming. And business domains such as natural gas exploration.
    However we are not discussing one of those topics. But rather we are discussing a code generation and, apparently, SQL/data dynamic expression creation. And those are in fact topics that I know a great deal.
    Any compilation of that is only going to provide a minimal gain when compared to the database hit itself.I really don't understand this, and it leads me to believe we are not understanding each other. I am not compiling sql, consider this:
    Collection<C> list = myNeatDAO.search(Object someDTOSearchCriteria);This searchCriteria object is what I am trying to dynamically compile, again, not for performance in any way, rather to avoid writing code that is 100% based on another class (a class which may change over time). The formation of the query (whether sql or hql or whatever) is handled via reflection on the search criteria and a parameterized class in the DAO subclass's definition:
    class MyNeatDAO<SomeDTO> extends AbstractDAOImplementation{}So we compare the classes and form some kind of query in the DAO. This is pretty standard stuff. I think where the wires are crossed is that you are 1)not reading attentively (if you had you would know that I marked this complete many posts ago) and 2) are not understanding the goal of the code.
    You got part of it correct in that someone isn't reading carefully and that someone doesn't understand.
    Myself I understand your problem several posts ago.
    What you failed to understand that you are attempting to create a system that I have already done so. Several times. It never required runtime compilation.
    Perhaps I wasn't clear before. Hopefully this will make it clearer.
    1. Given a system of DTOs that exist as compiled units (they could even be created at runtime.)
    2. A solution can be built which allows for full expression creation for queries based on those DTOs.
    3. That solution does NOT require runtime compilation.
    4. That solution does NOT require changes for future DTOs changes (which would seem obvious given that it can support DTOs compiled at runtime.)
    >
    Code generation is dependent on code patterns. That is true whether
    one shot or ongoing. Nothing else.
    Runtime functionality on the other hand is driven by user requirements.
    Code generation is a tool to achieve that and nothing else.I have two thoughts here.
    First, if you have a clear, unwavering requirement(or pattern) based purely on some other single class, how does it make sense not to automate that? Why would I want to write what is basically a near copy of the original dto each time? Not only does this increase development time (basically paying a developer to do a job a monkey could do), but it also increases modification time later when the true requirements are either discovered or the original communicated requirements change. If this single class is runtime compiled based on the dto, if you change the dto, the change to the corresponding search criteria class is automatic and perfect. There is no debug time, it just works since you are not writing it and introducing errors. The drawback is that you lose control over that class, which in this case does not create a major problem.
    Again you failed to read "attentively". Why do you think that I myself would have been using code generation since before java existed?
    Did you not understand that I have in fact been doing it? Or did you not understand that "before java" means that I have been doing it for a long time?
    I didn't bother mentioning it before but I also worked on a system which used runtime compilation extensively. Matter of fact one of the expression engines that I created was used in that system. However there was no need for that engine to be compiled at runtime.
    My second thought is that code generation is a tool to meet customer requirements, just like anything else in the software world. There are internal and external customers, and their needs must be balanced. The tool is in the box, and I am going to use it as I see fit. If you think this is wrong or off base, please express this in a useful way, I have laid my cards on the table pretty clearly (I think), if you see something glaring, explain what is wrong, don't just spew dismissive one-liners. That only makes me believe that you can't explain what is wrong(I have seen this a lot with programmers, they don't answer in a clear manner because they can't), and that you just want to be condescending, which I find a little sad. Consequently, this leads me to believe that you probably can't back up anything you are saying, and I may miss a very valid point since you never expressed it in any clear manner.
    You have written customer requirements that state explicitly that the system must have a SQL/data query system in place that is compiled at runtime?
    Unusual requirements. Most requirements would be along the lines of "call center employee must be able to enter customer last name or phone number or both"

  • Z3 Compact is amazing! But can't get some things to work...

    Hi everyone, this is my first Sony phone, which I bought to replace my Galaxy S4. Went this route because of the reported awesome battery life and because I was fed up with such a "big" phone, and wanted somethign smaller. The flagship-speced Z3 Compact was the obvious choice. I've only had it for close to 4 days, and I'm in love. Xperias Android Skin is so much smoother, complete and logical than Samsungs, while the phone is much cooler and premium-feeling. So far there's three things I can't figure out though. 1. By reading, it seems it's a common problem, some reporting some things fixed it, most don't Facebook Events and Birthdays to show up on the Calendar. My Galaxy S4 showed both. I've only managed to have events show up on my Calendar, but can;t figure out why Birthdays are not there, and how to add them. Any solutions? 2. Message/Notification counts. ON the Galaxy S4, Whatsapp and Line, for example, had a little balloon showing the number of unread messages/notification that the app was reporting. On my Z3 Compact, this is not the case, not even with something more "stock" such as Hangouts, which I use as default SMS client. I know it does such a thing, because the Email app does show the amount of unread emails in a orange-yellowish balloon. Help? Other than those two... I adore this phone. Got close to 60 hours of usual usage out of a single charge, with not a single moment of lag, performance drop or Stamina mode enablment.. That's witchcraft, if you ask me. 3. Email app: I can't find an option to have the client always show images by default, instead of always clicking "Show Images" and then "Always show images". Where can I set this up? Thanks for all the help!

    I have the same problem with the synchronization of calendar and contacts the small size photos.Xperia with Facebook malfunctions and it's a flagship phone.Please indicate with this problem in a support, but did not get a solution.
    I was hoping that after updating to Lollipop problem will be solved, but it did not happen.
    You can make use applications Sync. ME and Calendar Sync for Facebook.
    Xperia with Facebook is not working properly !!!

  • Some thing wrong in iTune , DVD Player , or may be with my keyboard

    hi every body
    after installing the last update of mac lion os , iTune went crazy ,
    itune was starting automatically every 30 secconds , even wehn i quit iTune , it start automatically .
    actully first i thought only it's iTune , but after a while i get the action by DVD player too .
    first i though some body is hacking me , but after disabling any device that is connected to out side of os things happends again .
    i check forums about itune and many guys ask about iTune , but no body ask about DVD player , so i think may be it's keyboard signal bugs .
    i am thinking maybe the "Play button" of keyboard is hitting automatically and by that iTune or DVD player appliaction starts .
    dose any body have any idea ?!
    it's make me crazy
    dose any body have this problem too ?!
    how can i check which appliaction or which singlas is sent to itune or dvd player ?
    thanks you guys 

    Hi Russel
    After endless hours of trying to work around the same problem you have, I found the solution. The problem has to do with the script. For some strange reason the scripts become corrupted. I found out that the problem was corrected when I made a new script and connected the buttons to the new script. Hope they at apple find time to correct this problem in the future.

  • Wants to get some info about .ico file usage in InDesign

    Hi
    There is some .ico file used in a project.
    In the .rc file, resouce information is define and given a numeric id to this resouce file.
    Then this numeric id is #defined in the ID.h file and used where needed in .fr panel for display a picture on a panel. Things are working well in ms window os as I think .rc file is meant for this platform.
    But On mac what more changes I have to do in my project so that I can use these .ico files.
    Thanks

    You can use the PNG based resources, these files are platform independent files and can be used both in the MAC and Win version of your plugin. For the approach you are currently using you will have to create MAC specific resource file(.r or .rsrc) file just as you create the .rc file for windows.
    For using the PNG based resource all you need is to define a resource as follows
    resource PNGA(kYourIconResourceID) "Icon.png" in the .fr file
    and also define the "kYourIconResourceID" in the id.h file and you are all set to use the png file both in WIN and MAC plugins. All the application tools icon use png file, so this is the preferred platform independent way to go.
