Is it possible to edit multiple songs simultaneously in iTunes?

Does anybody know if it is possible to edit multiple songs in a single pass (by right clicking on all of them and then opening a single edit window or so?). I would like to be able to, for example, change the Genre of 50 songs from Electronica/Dance to Drum 'N Bass without having to do it 50 times over individually for each of the songs.

I've done this before...by selecting the multiple songs, then right clicking and selecting "get info" from the list. You can then change things like the genre, album name, grouping, compilation (Y or N)...and other changes.

  • Can not edit my songs in the itunes library

    Can not edit my songs in the itunes library
    Windows7 64 BIT / SP1  /  Self-built PC
    Latest ITunes version 10.4
    80GB Classic 5th GEN IPOD
          I had almost full of content on my ipod,then I upgraded from XP HOME(32) to Windows7 (64 Bit)
    What I did not want to do was to spend time loading All 75GB back on the itunes Library, but decided I should restore the ipod, since it's been acting up a bit. I did not deactivate the last XP OS Computer prior to formatting the harddrive,because I thought it would not matter, since the software would be GONE.
    So I downloaded another itunes/Quicktime on this new Win7 O.S., and created the same playlists I had before, then dragged each genre/main music folder into the appropriate folder in itunes.
    I clicked on a few songs to change the Info, but they are all greyed out and I cannot edit anything....I never had these problems before.
    How to I re-enable to EDIT the INFO again?   Thank you!
    (itunes also told me I had authorized four out of five computers for this device...WHAT?  There is only one computer, and my one ipod.  
    ......BUT.......My sister has a 16GB itouch, and I put my songs on her itouch, also charged it up on my computer, since she does not have her own computer yet. Will that mess anything up? 
    Can she create her own User apple ID/password, then be able to edit her stuff from my computer? AUTHORIZE her itouch on my computer, or do I have to create her own playlists (because I have an 80GB, and she has a16GB, obviously, she will not get all mine on her small device) then checkmark ONLY her playlists to manage on her itouch, from my computer?
    A few people told me to try this....
         I Plugged in the OL' ipod, Under the SUMMARY TAB, and under the OPTIONS TAB, I changed what I had, which was "SYNC ONLY CHECKED SONGS AND VIDEOS" [B]to MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC AND VIDEOS"[/B]
    THEN underneath that, "OPEN ITUNES WHEN IPOD IS CONNECTED", "AND MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC WERE [U]BOTH CHECKED[/U]."
    THEN - I went back into my Win Explorer Main Music folder,and under PROPERTIES, I unchecked the READ-ONLY Box, hit APPLY, then OK, then I went back into the itunes library and tried to edit a few songs, but they are all still greyed out and not editable.
    I went back into the WIN EXPLORER main Music folder and checked to see if the READ-ONLY was still unchecked, but it automatically reverted back to READ ONLY.
    Another question I wanted to ask was this. I have my main Music Folder on my Storage HDD. They are MP3 files, and listed as Country,Blues,Classic Rock,Reggae,etc.  After I installed the WIN7 OS, I had to download itunes again/Quicktime,then dragged each main music folder into the appropriate playlist until they were all there.  Since my itunes app is on my Boot Drive,and my main music folder on my Storage drive,am I wasting or adding any needless HDD space having on both HDD'S? or is this a non-issue?  Thank you!

    Hello All!
    Well, after posting the help messages, I went diggingthrough both my itunes folder on my (C) drive, and then the Music Folder on my(F) Storage drive where I keep all my music files and then went into securityand in each line, I made FULL CONTROL, APPLY, then went back into iTunes afterplugging my ipod in and clicked on MANUALLY MANAGE TUNES.
    I don't know which did it, but now I can edit the songs. To answer yourquestion, I was able to play the songs, but just couldn't edit any of themuntil now. Thanks for your Reply!

  • Is it possible to set a song in my itunes library as a ringtone straight from my phone, without having to use my computer?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to make the Workflow Tasks work out with a pre-determined due date that it's 2 days from today in your client list workflow.
    I recommend that you can create this client list workflow as below in your environment.
    Then, you can go to “Start Options” to check “Start workflow automatically when an item is created”, publish this workflow and test if it works.
    When an new item is added in the client list, its corresponding Workflow Task is shown as below:

  • Capture and Editing multiple shots simultaneously

    Hello I know that I can capture multiple clips with BlackMagic DeckLink Quad. I can also edit multiple clips in Premiere with Multi-cam sequence. But is it possible, capture and cutting simultaneously?
    Thanks

    joe bloe premiere wrote:

    Yes... on two different systems running two licensed copies of Premiere.
    Is that really true?
    Most NLEs have issues with editing a file that isn't presented to them as closed, even if captured in a seperate instance of the same application.
    EVS are hooked up with Adobe now to emulate their FCP workflow, whereby edit while capture is possible. (They also do this with Avid), but that isn't a cheap option, unless you have EVS servers knocking around ;-)
    Gallery.co.uk have their PictureReady software, which would possibly work with CS6 (it presents a QT Ref file to the app that then 'fills in' as capture progresses).
    ToolsOnAir offer some solutions in this regard, as do Telestream with Pipeline.
    MOG also offered an edit while capture solution for Avid, that might work with CS6.
    You'll likely be out there doing the alpha research of whatever you try out (other than the EVS stuff, which I'm sure has quite a bit of testing going on behind it - not sure it can replace all the EVS <--> FCP7 functionality yet though).
    You'll also need some decent shared storage to be able to write and read simultaneously.
    Having reread the question - the Blackmagic app should be able to do the capturing for you, rather than a seperate PPro instance, but I don't believe it will do the 'filling in' of a QT ref that would enable edit while capture. Still be good to be able to capture in the background and do 'stop/start' to close files so they can be edited with.
    Also possible that you could use duplicated inputs on the BM Quad to do 'rolling edits' (i.e. so you don't miss anything when you break record).
    Good luck if you try it...
    PS found this too... <http://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1219&p=33374&hilit=quad#p33374>

  • Zen Touch: How to edit multiple songs artists and genres at once with new firmwa

    With the old firmware I was able to do that with Nomad Explorer. But with the V2 firmware, I cannot use the Nomad Explorer anymore, and Media Source Organizer only alows to edit one track at once. Zen Touch Explorer also does not allow me to do that.
    I tried to use Windows Media Player 0 and it worked, but after I closed the program and started it again, all my edits at the Library were gone. If I edit the library and sync to my Zen Touch will it apply what I edited on the library or will it keep the original ID3 tag from the song? How to make the modification permanent to the MP3 ID3 tag on the PC?
    I think creative should allow edition of multiple songs with Zen Touch Explorer on the same way Nomad Explorer used to do with firmware V.

    I haven't seen a program which does batch editing for MTP devices. Real Player does allow you to edit the ID3 tags of songs on the player, but one at a time.
    With most music programs when you change an ID tag on your computer it doesn't update on the player, so you would have to delete it from the player first then retransfer it, or find a program which edits the tags on the player such as Real Player.
    The issue is most likely speed, it will take awhile to do batch editing on the player so that could be a reason why programs dont support it..

  • Editing multiple templates simultaneously

    I want to know if it's possible to edit several similar templates from Pages at the same time?  I have
    several rental lease templates that are largely similar yet with subtle differences.
    I would like to be able to make changes in all the lease templates without individually needing to open
    them to make the change.  Does anyone know the answer?  Is this possible?  Thanks! Sean

    Are you sure that you are asking about templates ?
    It seems that you are in fact asking about normal documents.
    It's easy to check.
    Standard documents are named this way : Azertyuiop.pages
    Templates are named this way : Wxcvbn.template

  • Is it possible to add multiple  songs to a slide show?

    Hi there.
    A slide show can be quite long as you all know and the same music continusly repeated can become boring.
    Is it possible to add several songs to the slide show to overcome this problem?
    Regards.

    One thing you can do to make it all turn out even--think about how long each slide is going to display, say you want about 3 seconds per slide, multiply by the number of slides, say you have 100 slides (I picked those numbers so the arithmetic would be easy!). That's a total of 300 seconds. Divide by 60 seconds per minute to get the number of minutes, in this case that would be 5 minutes. Then when you make your playlist in iTunes find music that fits the mood of the show and that totals a little more than 5 minutes (and is NOT Protected, as Terence mentioned). Back in iPhoto select your Playlist in the Music section and then check the box to have the slideshow fit the music, and iPhoto will adjust the display time so that everything runs the same length of time. Export to iDVD and burn your disk.
    Personally, I like to get a little fancier, so I export my slideshow without sound, then open the project in iMovie HD and make a layered soundtrack, where I arrange the music and sound effects, as in this one:
    http://homepage.mac.com/francines/.Movies/kenstr.html
    It has the music, plus a coffee gurgle, birds tweeting, page flips and a lion roar at the end. Once it's built you can send it to iDVD at full size and/or, as I did here, make a small streaming web version to share over the Internet. I wrote up a VERY short tutorial on this (notes from a workshop I ran) and put it up here:
    http://pinkmutant.com/smug/psws06/bling.html
    Afraid I haven't worked that much with iMovie 08, but I believe you can do something along the same lines.

  • Is it possible to edit multiple tables at once??

    Hello ~
    I have been searching for days now on how to edit multiple (identical) tables of the same sheet at the same time, without having to edit each table individually. With excel you could just highlight the multiple tabs that you would like to edit, and only edit the one sheet and it would change the same cells in all of the other sheets that were highlighted. Does anyone have a solution for this with Numbers? Thank you in advance!!

  • HT1386 Is it possible to use the songs in my itunes library as a ringtone on my iphone 4? if so, how would i do that?

    I have been trying to figure out if I can use the songs in my itunes library as ringtones but am having no luck. I downloaded an app that is supposed to make it possible but can't get that to work either. Does anyone know how to do this? Would appreciate any input. Thanks.

    It is possible to create a ringtone with a designated 30 seconds or less section of a chosen song as long as the song or music was not purchased from the iTunes Store - or with music purchased from the iTunes Store that does not include DRM protection.

  • ITunes 8.0: Unable to Edit Multiple Songs / Loss of Menu Bar Function

    I upgraded to iTunes 8.0 today but am now unable to use any of the top menu functions, as I click on them and no choices pop down from each of the File, Edit, View, etc.
    Also, when I go to update the information on multiple files, the information editing screen appears quite scrambled and doesn't allow any changes to be made.
    Is anyone else having these types of issues?

    I'm having the same menu bar problem in iTunes 8.
    Also I've noticed there doesn't seem to be a way to view all of the songs contained in my library, like I used to be able to in previous versions. (The fact that I can't access the preferences menu item – because there is none –doesn't help.) Workaround for now: smart playlist. But I really don't think I should have to resort to that.
    And sans menus, I can't turn my visualizer on either.

  • Can i edit multiple songs at the same time but not to the same thing?

    i have downloaded a free mixtape and once transferring to iTunes every track on it comes under various artists in the artists section and the name of the artist and song title in the name section of iTunes. I am aware i can change these by selecting  'get info' however i was wandering if the was a way where i can change all of these songs manually, at different times,  without haven't to manually select 'get info' before editing every one.

    There are editors that bring up the songs one at a time, so you can edit them in a row.  Winamp works that way.  iTunes does not.

  • Is it possible to open multiple quicklooks simultaneously?

    Quicklook is a great application for previewing documents with different file types. And it would be even more great if i could use Quicklook to look/work at multiple files at the same time, i can't find if their is a Plugin or Setting which enable this..
    Now a Quicklook window closes when I click anywhere outside the Preview and it reopens when I hit the finder again. Why can't I work inside a program with a Preview open next to the document and for that matter in spaces? or on another monitor? And if it is possible to keep a Quicklook Preview open next to another document could it also be possible to open another Quicklook preview? It would save a lot of time if I didn't have to open all different applications for different file types if i just want to read-only and keep looking at when working at another file.
    With less words.. is this possible?
    much thanks in advance

    Is there a shortcut for opening different file types in Preview?
    No.
    However, you can create it in two ways.
    (1) With Automator, as you've been very close to find out for yourself.
    Create a new Automator document using the Service template. In the options, set "Service receives selected" > Documents > "in" > Finder.app. Then drag the Open Finder Items action from Files and Folders. Choose "Open with:" > Preview.app. When you save it, the document should be saved automatically as a Service, and you know the rest. For more details, go to Automator > Help > Automator Help and search for "service".
    (2) With AppleScript.
    This little script
    --script begins
    property appName : "Preview.app"
    on run
              set theList to {}
              set theApp to (path to applications folder from local domain as text) & appName
              tell application "Finder"
                        set theList to selection as list
                        repeat with i in theList
      open i using theApp
                        end repeat
              end tell
    end run
    --script ends
    tells Finder to open 1 or more selected items using Preview (Preview.app must be in its default location). If Preview can't open the item (eg, if it's a text file), it will launch w/o opening anything.
    Save this script in its proper place, which is <~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Finder> (if any of those folders doesn't exist, you create it), and enable the Script menu
    AppleScript Editor > Preferences > General > Show Script menu in menu bar
    Then you can execute your script by choosing if from the Script menu. If you want to execute it with a shortcut, you can use a utility such as Spark (which comes in very handy, because you can add keyboard shortcuts to launching a lot of other apps and scripts).

  • Is it possible to make multiple playlists and set itunes so that it will not let you add a song to more than one playlist?

    I have a veryl large Itune library and want to make multiple playlists so that for example when driving long hours in the car I can change to another playlist and not have songs repeated.  I do realize if I noted down every song that was put in a playlist I would be able to accomplish this but it would be nice if there was some setting that I am unaware of that would keep track of this for me.  Any suggestions?

    To Clearify  for example I am wondering if their is a setting so that Itunes won't let me add a song to playlist A if it is alread on playlist B.  Any Suggestions?
