ITunes where showing two public folders when there is one

At some point recently my Mac starting seeing my MyBookWorld NAS as "\\Volumes\Public-1" and "\\Volumes\Public-2" where it just use to see one "\\Volumes\Public".  It is all the same drive.
Now iTunes "where" shows some music in one public-1 and others in public-2.  They play ok but when my Sonos can't find public-2.
Is there and EASY way to bulk change where iTunes thinks the files are?  I do not want to re-"organise" the library - there are 13,000 songs in Lossless format which take forever to re-organise.  I would also be concerned that iTunes would try and copy a file from Public-2 to Public-1 (which are the same in fact) and I would end up with 2 copies of everything in the same directories.......
Any suggestions?

    Does anyone have problems with sent messages not showing in their Mail? I have two sent folders when really I only want one. Any tips?

    Not sure if this is a fix, but I tried sending myself a test email from only  the Bcc field, and lo and behold it now shows the Bcc field in all sent item previews;
    ...maybe leaving the 'To' field blank on purpose forced Mail to show it.
    Rebooted the Mail program, still there - rebooted the machine, still there. Hope this is still relevant and it works for you too - J.

  • Ignoring "Public Folders" when listing folders on an Exchange account?

    hi-
    i downloaded javamail 1.4.2 and ran the demo example "folderlist" against an exchange account i have using the "imap" protocol.
    it listed all my folders correctly, including "Public Folders" and its subfolders.
    i'd like to not list "Public Folders" though, and so was wondering if there is a programmatic way of ignoring this folder and any
    other public folders.
    when i run "folderlist" in verbose mode, i get for the "Public Folders":
    Name: Public Folders
    Full Name: Public Folders
    URL: imap://exchange-user@exchange-host/Public Folders
    Not Subscribed
    Is Directory
    IMAP Attributes:
    \Noselect
    is it appropriate to intrepret "\Noselect" as folders i don't want to include in my folder list?

    Use the Store.get*Namespaces methods. You probably only want to list the personal namespaces.

  • Why doesn't a song I uploaded to the iTunes store show the Composer information when purchased?! Why is Apple deleting crucial info!?!

    Why doesn't a song I uploaded to the iTunes store show the Composer information when purchased?! Why is Apple deleting crucial info!?!  The information was embedded using iTunes and uploaded through TuneCore.  But when the song is purchased and downloaded the Composer info has been deleted (and so has the copyright protection info that was in the comments window of the mp3's info in iTunes)???

    Foundsound,
    Since your direct commercial relationship is with TuneCore, not with Apple, you need to address your question to TuneCore.
    Tune Core often places the song at multiple music retailers (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) so you should check if the same thing happened at the others.
    The fact that the Comments field was blanked out doesn't surprise me, but deleting the composer does.
    Pls let us know what you find out.

    why cant itunes get it together? Why is there only one frank ocean video when in America there are more???
    i have spent all day trying to buy or download kid Cudi's what I Am video but am being blocked every time. Why???

    Because the content providers have not released it for your country. I am guessing you are not in the US.
    This is nothing to do with Apple.

    I am concerned about the health of my current computer but have not yet made the commitment to a new one, but:
    1) How can I transfer my iTunes account to a new computer when I get one...
    and
    2) What can I do if my current computer suddenly implodes and I have not yet 'copied/'saved'/otherwise protected my account, as is? -- I have already had my computer crash once and had one of your people help me restore all of the paid for songs (none of the uploaded from my own collection of CD songs, of course, so I had to spend a long time rebuilding that) -- and I believe I was told you could only help me recover that material one or two times altogether, no?
    WithOUT purchasing a Mach or iCloud (I actually think I have one of the later, but rarely have checked it) account, is there anything I can do to responsibly protect my account?
    Thanks for any time taken on this!!!

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

  • Access refused in public folders when user is in a Group

    Hi, 
    We have a Exchange 2003 server and an Exchange 2010 server
    The Public folders are on the 2003.
    Since 2 or 3 days, there is a access issue in juste ONE public folder: SOME users cannot access to the folder anymore if there are in a group (it asks for a login and a password -> if the user enters them, it doesn't work)
    BUT the issue is just for some users not all and there are in the SAME group.
    The issue is the same with both distribution or security group (and universal).
    Please Help

    Hi,
    From your description, I recommend you follow the steps below for troubleshooting:
    1. Please run the Get-PublicFolderAdministrativePermission -Identity "xxx" -User "xxx" cmdlet to check these users' permissions for the public folder.
    2. If they don't have the related permissions, please use the Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity "xxx" -AccessRights xxx -User xxx cmdlet to add the permissions for them.
    For more information, here are some articles for your reference.

  • Excluding public folders when enumerating Outlook folders

    I have an Outlook plugin that searches all Outlook folders for certain information.
    However, some users have been complaining that the plugin searches public folders as well, which are huge in certain corporations, and that in turn makes the search very slow.
    I now use the following mechanism to search Outlook folders:
    NameSpace nameSpace = outlookApp.GetNamespace("MAPI");
    Folders accountFolders = nameSpace.Folders;
    try
    if (nameSpace == null || accountFolders == null)
    return null;
    for (int i = 1; i <= accountFolders.Count; i++)
    MAPIFolder accountFolder = accountFolders.Item(i);
    MailItem res = null;
    try
    res = ScanFolder(accountFolder, mailId, scanUI);
    finally
    if (accountFolder != null) Marshal.ReleaseComObject(accountFolder);
    if (res != null) return res;
    return null;
    finally
    if (accountFolders != null) Marshal.ReleaseComObject(accountFolders);
    if (nameSpace != null) Marshal.ReleaseComObject(nameSpace);
    I've tried to look at the MAPIFolder object, but I didn't find any flag that could help me distinguish standard folders from public folders. Is there a way to do that?
    Thanks,
    Jan

    Read the PR_MDB_PROVIDER property (DASL name http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x34140102) using MAPIFolder.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty, convert it to hex using MAPIFolder.PropertyAccessor.BinaryToString. For the PF store objects,
    PR_MDB_PROVIDER property will be pbExchangeProviderPublicGuid (78B2FA70AFF711CD9BC800AA002FC45A) - you can see that property (and others) in

    If the printer is under warranty, contact HP Support.  If not, it is probably cheaper to buy a new printer than to fix this one.
