Importing new Address Book into Address Book but keeping it separate.

I have an existing Address Book on my MacBook Pro and would like to import my office Address Book - BUT keep it as a separate group. The office Address Book has over 1,000 names so it is a lot of work to import it and then, one by one, find, separate and add the names to a New Group. Is there a way to import the new Address Book directly into its own Group?
Both Address Books are Apple.
I understand that the new names will be a part of my existing Address Book when I am in the ALL Group.

Well you are correct - you cannot import into .Mac mail.
What you can do is import your .csv file into Address Book on a Mac and then Sync that Address Book with your .Mac information.
In Address Book the Import function is under the File menu.
To Sync use the .Mac preference pane in System Preferences.
HTH,
Steve

I have Logic on my iMac and want to install it on my new mac book but my mac book doesn't have a dvd drive. I tried to download the upgrade but it looks for an older version. How do I get Logic on the Mac book ?

I would like to install logic on my new mac book but there is no dvd drive. I tried to downlaod the upgrade but that didn't work. How do I download it for the first time?
Thanks!

You can only use the App Store version to reinstall on your new Mac if you bought Logic via the App Store in the first place.... and then it will appear under the Purchases tab in the Mac App Store App so long as you are signed in using the same Apple ID you used to purchase Logic via the App store in the first place.
If you bought the DVD edition of Logic Studio then you must initially install using those original DVDs to begin with and then update to the latest version of your version of Logic via software updates.
No DVD drive? Buy an external one.. Amazon do a very cheap basic one that works well..
or...
Use Remote Disk if you still have your older Mac which has a built in DVD drive...

I have just updated to LR5. I also have a new Camera. Nikon D800. Trying to import directly (from camera) into LR. But unsuccessful. Getting the following message. "The files are from a camera which is not recognised by the raw format support in Lightroom." How can I import please?

Hi,
I assume you mean the Nikon D810 because D800/800E support has been there since Lightroom 4.1
Currently, because it is a new camera (D810) the only support is in a RC of ACR 8.6 for Photoshop CS6 and CC, as the RC runs out on 31 August it is expected support will be there in the next dot release of Lightroom.
Current limitations are that only full sized NEF is supported.
If you wish to import to Lightroom 5.5. you will need to download the DNG Converter v8.6RC and convert the NEF files (full size RAW ony) to DNG then import into Lightroom 5.5

I want to import my twitter contacts into my iPhone but DON'T want to import their twitter profile pics as many of them are jokes or inaccurate. Is there a way to do this?
I don't want to use the import contacts button as it seems like it will automatically all of my carefully curated contacts photos.
The facebook equivalent lets you choose if you want the photos or not. Why doesn't this?

After adding song to library delete the originals. Then your folder is empty again waiting for more songs to add to library.
Do this only if iTunes is set to copy songs to iTunes folder when adding.

Hello:
I am very much a novice with Final Cut. I am trying to import some video files from my desktop but keep getting an error message that says, "File error 1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown". The file type is .mov, 35MB, 1920 x 1080, Codec MPEG-2 video linear PCM timecode, color profile HD (1+1+1). Can someone help? Thanks, Paul

You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.

HT3819 Can I set up two different IPODs on one computer with one iTunes library but keep them separate by user of the iPOD?

I need to add my husband's iTunes library to my Apple comnputer that has iTunes and my library on it already - can I add his device and keep it separate from mine?

You should create a new compuer login account for him (System prefs > Users & Accounts) and he will have all his own data including his own iTunes library.
Also, you can have more than one device in iTunes and sync different content.

Import new java classes into a running programm

Hello, i have a small Java problem, i hope somebody knows an answer ...
I try to write a Java Programm, this programm starts and load a new class, this class is not defined inside the running programm, but the running programm should use the new class.
example:
// a class file in a directory somewhere at my harddisk
public void class X
void doSomething()
//Print "Hello world"
start programm A
Programm A does something, but doesn�t "know" class X, class X is not compiled with program A
after some seconds, A should load class X.
if (M == N) "import class X"
// At this moment, Programm A knows class X
X NewObjektX = new X();
NewObjektX.doSometing();
Thats my problem :)
I am sorry about my bad english, but its sadly not my first language.

Hello :)
Thx for an answer, i tried your solution, but i get another problem.
The type to create an object ist unknown.
i?ll post my exmaple code :
This class is not compiled with the main programm, only the class file is inside the directory of the main program.
public class SimpleClass
     int Information = 0;
     void printOnScreen()
         System.out.println("Varibale of the class:"
           + this.Information);
This is the main programm:
public class Main {
     public static void main(String[] args)
          try
            Class newClass = Class.forName("SimpleClass");
            Object instance = newClass.newInstance();
              System.out.println(instance.getClass());
              // At this point no errors, the tpye of instance is
                 "SimpleClass"
              // This line occurs an error, the type "SimpleClass" is
              // unknown.
            SimpleClass newClassInstance = (SimpleClass) instance;
          catch (ClassNotFoundException e)
            System.out.println("Can?t open Class");
            System.err.println(e.getMessage());
          catch (InstantiationException e)
           System.out.println("Error1");
           System.err.println(e.getMessage());
          catch (IllegalAccessException e)
             System.out.println("Error2");
           System.err.println(e.getMessage());
      } // public static void main(String[] args)
} // public class MainI tried another solution with inheritance, i programmed a superclass, and choose the superclass as the type (the Superclass was compiled with the main programm).
The SimpleClass extends Superclass.
// works fine, but i dont want this type of solution :)
Superclass newClassInstance = (Superclass) instance;
How cann i solve the "unknown type" problem ?
SimpleClass newClassInstance = (SimpleClass) instance;

When I import new home videos into my iTunes and edit the names it creates duplicate Library's on my Apple Tv. How can I stop this from happening each time I edit a name in iTunes home videos??

I am having an issue with duplicate Libraries showing up in my Home Sharing "Home Videos". It happens when I import home videos into iTunes and change the names of the files. How do I avoid this from happening and delete the duplicate libraries?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

Basically I need to be able to add the following APs and to the Planning mode:

Can you re-import your CD's in high quality, but keep the original track data?

Dear All
I got roughly halfway through importing my collection of about 800 CD's into iTunes 12, before realising that the default import settings applied by iTunes is not 'the best'. In fact it's not set anywhere near 'the best', it's something like 128kbps lossy format.   I wanted to import my CD's in lossless CD-quality. WAV would have been ideal. However it would appear I've missed a trick by assuming it would be full-quality unless I specified something else.
I'm not using portable devices to listen to my music, I have a Mac Mini and an endless supply of hard-drive storage space, and I'm only accessing it at home.
A large number of my discs are classical and jazz, and in many cases I've needed to amend or reorganise the metadata, so that it all complies with an overall filing and categorising system that makes sense and is useful.   I also have a large number of rock and blues CD's, but their metadata is normally correct when the discs are issued, so they usually doesn't need adjusting.   If you're wondering, yes my taste in music is eclectic.   I'm just as big a fan of Mozart as I am of Motorhead as I am of Mo Foster.   The problem is that with classical and opera it's important that the 'artist' category shows the names of the performer/soloist/conductor/orchestra, not the name of the composer! (I wish I *did* have actual recordings of JS Bach playing the Well Tempered Clavier!!).
So I'm looking at this big pile of CD's thinking, "is it worth re-importing them all again at CD-quality?", because I'd really like top-quality copies, and I only really want to have to do this once.   It *is* worth doing so long as I don't have to do all the jiggery-pokery with all the artist/composer data again, because that takes an enormous amount of time.
So the question is... will iTunes 12 let me re-import my discs at maximum quality, but at the same time let me keep the data that was painstakingly edited and stored with the previous (lesser-quality) versions?   Or is there a workaround? Maybe I could surreptitiously replace the old audio with new audio when iTunes isn't running and hope that it won't notice?
It goes without saying that I have spent quite a while trying to do this for myself before asking the forum, and so far I've drawn a blank so I'd be very grateful for any expert thoughts and opinions.
Best wishes
Nick

HI
Don't use WAV format as you will not retain metadate. You should use aiff if space is not a problem but Apple lossles format will be just as good with smaller file size.
When you reimport your CDS, you will be asked if you wish to replace existing copies. Select yes, you data changes should be retained. Be aware that when you reimport, CD track names and album title must match your existing files, otherwise they will not replace existing versions.

Importing Canon Picture Styles into Aperture (how to keep the metadata) RAW

I have a Canon 30D. Often I use the picture styles settings to shoot Monochromes. When I bring them up in Aperture to import they read as Monochromes (they are RAW) and as soon as I import them....Aperture strips it. This is pretty frustrating when I have a shoot of 300 images and 85 of them are black and whites. Canon software keeps the settings if I use their software, but i'm building an Aperture Library.
Does anyone have a fix around this?

Although I don't know for sure, it is possible that Canon Picture Styles are not in industry standard EXIF, and so they might be a Canon private format only readable by Canon software. If that is the case, there isn't much Apple can do but reach some kind of deal with Canon. Apple may or may not want to go to the trouble, because they might not want to also support the private data in other manufacturers' private raw data, like Nikon's encrypted white balance.
It's worth noting that Adobe's software doesn't read Canon Picture Styles either; I've read posts asking about it on their forums too.
Possibly worth noting most of all: The only advantage to shooting in monochrome is to be able to use the camera to visualize it. You can often get a better black-and-white by customizing the conversion from the original raw color data.

How to import CD's/tunes to syst HD but keep library content on external HD

This has probably been asked before but here goes: I want to keep library content on an external USB drive but import stuff to my internal HD because it's faster. (The USB took almost an hour to import 1 CD!}
But I don't know the best way to do this. As of now I am importing to my internal drive & then copying or dragging files over to the USB. But I now have a library on 2 drives & I want to keep itunes content on the USB & leave my system drive more space. So there must be a more elegant way to do this.
Is this a case for using an alias? I am not too clear on how to use them. I think I read somewhere that you could keep the Library structure on the system drive but the actual music on an external.

bump--anybody know about this?
