Importing more than one at a time

when I try to use the option to import files that are on my computer already it only allows me to do one at a time I have tried both a shift and a control key to try to get more than one file at a time and it does not work so from what I have read i used the add folder option to add music to my library. the problem is then that if I want to try to "get CD Track names" it says this can only be used on files that were imported in iTunes please try importing the file again. I do not want to have to do a file at a time just to use some of the fetures is there a easier way?

Either use finder to drag and drop those tracks onto
"Library" in iTunes' left "Source" column or from
iTunes Menu Files use "Add to Library ..." then
navigate to a folder that keep a yoru tracks and
select that folder.
This did it! I was doing an "import" which would only let me do one song at a time. But the "add to library" and the drag and drop both worked. Thanks!!!

Is there any way to import more than one song at a time

Try the 'add folder to library' option under file on the main menu.

Import more than one file at a time

Is there a way to import more than one file at-a-time to LR?

PC or Mac?
You can import whole folder/directory strctures if you want. In LR click on Import in Library or Shift-Cmd/Ctl-I and the initial Finder/Explorer dialogu should let you choose a Folder/Derectory, not just an individual file, though you should be able to Shift Click multiple folders/files as well.

HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store. Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist. I tried to downloaad more than one at a time. The download stopped. Now I can not download at all.

I can no longer download music from itunes store. It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist. I tried to download more than one at a time. It stopped. Now I cant download at all. Even rebooted my machine.

OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

On 4S how can I delete emails more than one at a time in my Inbox

Just got the iPhone 4S (first ever iPhone for me). When I have emails in my Inbox and I want to delete them is there a way to delete more than one at a time? I know when I go to the Trash it lets me "delete all". I get quite a bit of emails and it's a huge waste of time to only be able to delete one at a time in the Inbox.

I'm trying to find a way of clicking one box/area and it deleting all the emails in the Inbox.
It can't be done from the iPhone. You could use Safari, access your webmail and delete from there, if that's easier.

Multiple AirPort Express units - use more than one at a time?

If I connect three Airport Express units in three different rooms, can I use more than one at a time?
Can I choose to only use 2 out of the 3 at one time?
Thanks.

Yes. With iTunes 6.0.2 or later, you can send an AirTunes stream to multiple remote AirPort Express units, provided that each AirPort Express has the latest AirPort firmware. The maximum number of remote AirPort Express units is three to six in typical conditions. The number that works for you will depend on your environmental conditions (such as building composition and local radio interference), distance to the remote AirPort Express units, and available network capacity relative to your other usage.

Why won't Garage band let you open more than one project a time..

Why won't Garageband let you open more than one project a time???? If thats the way its is set up...that is really lame. Even the worst audio programs allow you to run a few projects at a time.
I recorded a gig the other night... then I dumped the whole set on to one track. When I wanted to copy and paste individual songs into their own project it made me close the current project. Is there a way around this???
Joe

Heh, heh. Yes, this is true. Alas... BUT, if you want to compare one project with another, it can be done.
There is another advantage to making another copy of GarageBand. I created a copy and call it "GarageSymphony" that contains all my instrument specific icons for orchestral packs. This way I do not mess up the GarageBand application.
I would not be surprised to find multiple windows become available in GB4. I was more than pleased to find this change in iMovie 6.

How can I import more than one photo album onto my iPad

Help! Can I import more than one photo album onto my IPad from my PC and if so how?

Yes and it's very easy to do once you know what to do.
Place all of the photo albums that you want to transfer to the iPad into one main photos album on your PC. When your iPad is connected to your computer's iTunes and after you have selected the iPad under Devices, click on the Photos tab and in the Sync Photos from heading - select that main photos album that you place all of your other photos folders into - select each album that you want to sync - and then click on Apply in the lower right corner to sync the photos to the iPad.

Can I import more than one song at a time?

Hello all, this is my first post so go easy on me...lol
I just purchased my first iPOD today and seem to notice so far that I can only import one song at a time into iTunes library. I cannot select more than one song at a time by holding down the shift button. These are songs that I already have on my computer, not songs just ripped through iTunes. Also how can I get album art onto all of my songs? I've noticed that only one album so far has album art on it. The others don't. Thanks in advance.
Toshiba Tecra 8100 Windows XP Pro

Thanks Rachyl, I'll try that when I get off of work. What about the album art? How can I make sure I get it every time in the future. Can I rip my CD's using another software to make sure they are tagged right?
BTW I used to live in NC not too long ago and went to school there....GO HEELS!

Importing more than one Memory Card at the same time

As a productivity tool for professionnals, Lightroom should allow us to import from more than one source at the same time, as Aperture do. I have a multiple Flash Card reader, and we cannot import all of them at the same time in Lightroom...
I know that I can copy them in a folder, then importing them in LR... But this is time and space consuming if I want to convert the file in DNG : it's okay if photography is a hobby for you, but when it's your full time job, and you often import 4 16Gb Compact Flash Cards at the same time, you don't want to waste time to wait the copying process on your hard disk, and then wait for the "import and convert to DNG" process : this process require to duplicate the files : RAW to DNG on the same hard disk, instead of Direct copy and convert to DNG from your memory cards to your Hard Disk.

You can have multiple remotes for one ATV, and one remote for multiple ATVs.
In our house we have two iPhones and one iPod iPod Touch, all able to control the same ATV at the same time (much to the delight of my daughter who enjoys ousting my music choices for her own).
Why have iPod touch in each room? Its not a wired remote - its a mobile device. Think of a landline vs mobile telephone - landlines are one per room, mobiles are one per person - that's how an iPod is used, even as a remote - you take it with you.
Just like a mobile phone, you'd have one personalised iPod Touch or iPhone per person, not per ATV or room.

HT2373 how to import more than one contacts one time

i have more than one thousand contacts with email address. how can i important it in to the new MacBook Air address book one time? it is impossible to import one by one.

Hi Derek,
It sounds like you were looking to back convert TO the PDF format. To do this, you'll want to look at our desktop application, Adobe Acrobat.
As you requested, I have initiated a return of your CreatePDF subscription.

Selecting/importing more than one clip from camcorder using check boxes

Hi.
I've just bought a new camcorder (SD Card) based. I used to use Mini DV tapes.
Now when I import into iMovie9 I am able to select which clips I import. I always choose manual import because I like to save different clips into different topics.
I am able to uncheck all the clips and individually select each one I want to import but I'm baffled about how to select more than one clip at a time and then check the import box. e.g. select clips 3 to 15 and then having to check the box once instead of checking ever box for each clip. There must be something like hold shift down while selecting but I've not managed to work it out yet!
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,
I import clips as you do - by manually ticking the box in each clip. Like you, I haven't figured out a way to select a group of clips in one go - that would be very handy! Sorry I can't help - I'll be interested to see what answers you get.

WRT54G wireless - but not on more than one device at time- and now not at all

Since changing internet providers we have had major issues with our router and trying to get the wireless to work with more than one computer at a time. I am gathering it's an IP address conflict, we have had this message pop up sometimes-- but am not sure how to go about fixing it. I have a linksys WRT54G, 6 weeks out of warrenty ( I tried to call for support and was told they would *gladly* help me for $30-$40-- which really bugs me as this was the first time I EVER called. We should be allowed at least one free call no matter how long out of warrenty- end rant )
Anyway-- I have two laptops, Netflix via WII, and an I-touch. For awhile, one computer could access wireless, sometimes both would, sometimes none would- as has been the problem in the last couple of days. It seems one computer would be more consistent in "grabbing" access- don't know if this is important to know or not:)) I tried to look to see if his computer had a static ip address - but couldn't find any info to support that theory...
I doubt it is a router failure as it was working fine with the previous interent provider- but now it is not-- I have tried to reset the router and reconfigure via the webbased setup pages. Nothing I am trying is working, not real surprising-- as I really don't know what I am doing--
I don't think it is the internet provider as internet access works fine hardwired trhough the modem via the router...
Can someone ** please** help walk me through this??
thanks
Tammy

Thanks for the reply-- The issue has been solved.....
I found an online manual and was in the process of reinstalling the wrt54g cd - starting over from the beginning. I felt since it started only after we switched ISPs , that it must have been a config problem and turns out it was.... The manual said to ask ISP for settings. I tried to do that 3 weeks ago and the tech support for ATT was unhelpful.
So I tried calling ATT again today for the proper settings for the router. The tech was fantastic. She walked me through everything -- so now I have wireless PCs, netflix and Itouch again, yea!! It was not the router, but trying to get the modem and the router to communicate with each other....
Thanks for trying
Tammy

IPhoto gives import error "file not valid" when import more than one photo

Trying to import lots of photos.
Every time I try to import more than a few, I get an error that "The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type of the files may not contain valid data)."
When I go back to importing just one at a time, it works fine every time.
I have tried rebuilding the iPhoto library as well.
I have tried also not copying into the iPhoto library and copying into the iPhoto library (using Preferences/Advanced/Importing).
Any help would be great.
This is painful doing one-by-one, and each one I bring in shows as a separate event...
Every once in a while I will get lucky and it will import more than 5, though I will still get the error before it imports all selected. Ugh!

Unfortunately did not work.
And now a silly question - how do I get to be able to see my original iPhoto library? When I try to open it, I don't see any of the albums and mobileme galleries I had created anymore (though I can still see them on the web)

Adding More Than one at a time

Can you add more than one chapter marker at a time? I have a large project that I would like to add a chapter marker every five mintues - automatic would be nice. Can FCE add chapter like that?

Thanks... I was hoping there was a plugin or something.
