Keeping Music and Speaker files seperate?

I have files on my ipod (nano 4th generation) of Narcotics Anonymous Speakers that I listen to when I cant get to a meeting. I also have music that I listen to while working. Is there any way to keep my Speaker files seperate from my music? I tried putting my Speaker files into their own playlist and my music into a seperate playlist, but it still plays both together. Is it possible to put the Speaker files into Audiobooks? Any ideas?

One thing you can do is set the Narcotics Anonymous files to Skip when Shuffling from under each tracks Options tab of their Get Info window in iTunes.
If you would rather move these files to the audiobooks section, you'll need to change their media type to Audibook from under the iPod's Options tab as well also accessible via the Get Info window in iTunes.

  • I've moved an internal hard drive with all my music and library files to a new computer --- how can I get itunes to import the whole library while keeping my metadata?

    I've always kept all my music on its own dedicated internal hard drive.  Now I've got a new PC, finally made the switch to Windows 7 from XP, and I've moved my internal hard drive over to the new machine.
    I installed iTunes, but I'm having a heck of a time getting it to import the music and library files, keeping all my playlists and metadata.  Why is this so hard?

    If your New to You Used Mac is froom mid 2012 and originally came with Lion installed on it you will need to Reinstall that version using the Online Internet Recovery system and then at first boot of the new install use the Setup Assistant system to copy over all the data from your wifes old hard drive.
    To access the Online system at startup hold down the Command + Option/alt + r keys and keep them held down until you see a globe on the screen. From the resulting screen that cames up, Mac OS X Utilities, select Disk Utility and then the top most entry for the hard drive, left hand panel, drive model number and size, and then the Partition tab. Repartition the drive as One Partition, You Must do that to get ride of the Mavericks Recovery HD partition which is hidden. Name the partition Macintosh HD with a format of Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    Once that is done exit disk utility and select Reinstall Mac OS X.

  • HT3702 Why can't I download my already purchased music and other files from iCloud, even though I owe money to iTunes for my most recent purchases.  Doesn't seem right that they keep me from accessing those files which I've already paid for!

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

  • I have an iPod Classic 5th Gen.  After 1 month I've lost all my music and playlist files.  The only files left are music I have purchased from iTunes.  How do I restore my music library to my iPod?

    I have an iPod Classic 5th Generation.  I have not used it for about one month.  When I turned it on, I had lost all my music and playlist files.  The only thing left on the iPod was the music and audio books I have purchased from iTunes store.  I tried to delete everything on the ipod by sliding the hold button and then pressing the center button and the menu and I saw the apple logo on the screen but the iPod wouldn't reboot.  Any suggestions as to how I can delete everything on the iPod and then plug it into my computer to restore my music library?  I am using a Windows 7 operating system.

    Does both your Windows and Macbook iTunes have the same library of songs?
    if it  does then, much easier to proceed, else try to load the Macbook with the same library as Windows.
    Note that only one of the Macbook USB port is good for iPod Classic, the other is too slow and may cause timeout, and I would suggest disconnect all other USB devices, while you Restore or Sync the iPod Classic.
    Connect the iPod to the Mac, (if iTunes launch, please close it back.)
    Use Disk Utility -> select the iPod Device->First Aid->Repair (use option FAT32)
    After the Repair complete, eject the iPod.
    Connect back to the Mac
    When iTunes launch, Restore the iPod when Prompted, (use FAT32)
    Sync your library.
    Good Luck!

  • My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now  I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them.  They may let you redownload it at no cost.

    If they don't, I'm afraid you'll have to purchase it again.  Sorry.

  • NOT ABLE TO IMPORT MUSIC AND VIDEO FILES FROM IPOD TO COMPUTER/ITUNES LIBRARY !!!!

    Hi.... I am having IPod Nano 5th Generation. I can access music and video files (that are stored in Ipod memory) in Ipod. But when I connect the ipod to computer, I am not able to access/import these music and video files through computer. Also, I am not able to see any folders like DCIM, Contacts, etc... in the memory of IPod. Can any body help me out... ?

    Search it up on google.com.  There's a lot of apps that will help you do this.  Check out this one:

    You can also check out this video:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWvYo6Gcq44
    I tried the import software (trial version) and it was fine but I didn't want to pay for software.  You can authorize up to 5 computers in the house to access your iTunes music and other iTunes purchases. Open iTunes, you can go under Store and select Authoize this computer.
    Good luck!

  • MMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk?

    MMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk?
    I have just downloaded a Hello Kitty MMO app for research (for my kid of course).
    I am developping my English teaching app with LOADS of classical music, mp3 sentences and heavy background bgs. Would the best idea be for client to download these to their hardisk ie I would not need to stream them and therefore save a fortune on bandwidth charges from my ISP???
    Cheers

    I see what you mean ie: they have to get the file to their computer one way or another BUT
    a. If they are going to repeatedly use that file ie: a custom cursor or classical piece of music every week when they log on then it would be better for them to have it on their hardisk wouldn't it? If not, they would have to download it every time they log on. I take it that's why the hello kitty site makes you download 130 megas so you have everything on your hardisk, ie: you will be reusing all those assets MANY times in the future. The experience wil be very FAST as you have it on your local disk and needn't have to wait for streaming.

  • Putting music and video files that I purchased from iTunes onto the creative z

    For my birthday i got a itunes gift card and i bought music and video files with it but when i import it i cant find the music files in the folders they should be and the video need a directshow codec on the zen vision m so how do i put the codec on it and find all the purchased files?I need these files on my zen!

    Find that sadistic friend of yours who bought you the gift card and beat him into submission with a dead trout.
    Seriously, due to iTunes' file being locked with DRM and being in a format that is incompatible with the Zen, the only thing you could do is look for underground/illegal methods to remove the DRM and convert the file into unprotected MP3. Due to the illegality of the issue, I cannot provide instructions (that, and the fact that iTunes won't let me buy music from them because Malaysian money isn't good enough for them, therefore I haven't actually tried). But I can say that What-U-Hear is a pretty innovati've solution . Apart from that, Google is your friend.Message Edited by RAMChYLD on 09-02-2007:59 PM

  • Just updated my OS to os5...why did all of my music and video file turn into an "other" file and how do I fix it?

    I just updated to OS5 and all of my video and music files are gone and now I have an inaccessible "other" file about the size of the of the old music and video files.  When I go to sync music files in itunes they never show up on the phone.  Help!

    Never mind.  Just read some similar questions and tried restoring it to backed up version and now everything seems to be working.  What a relief!

    If you want to drag and drop ( don;t know why you would do this), you will have to check manually manage music.
    Why not just sync?

  • Sharing iTunes music AND library files between multiple users in Windows XP

    My wife and I share the main computer and both use iTunes, each of us with our own iPod. While Apple covers how to share your music directory itself (which I did when iTunes was first installed by making the music directory C:\music), it doesn't allow you to share the library files--so, for example, if you added a playlist in one account it doesn't sync with the other.
    Microsoft has an app called Sync Toy which allows you to keep any set of files/folders on a Windows box synchronized with another set. I use Sync Toy to run a scheduled task each day in the middle of the night to sync the files in the iTunes directory in our %homepath%\My Music folders with each other--the most recently updated one will be synchronized.
    Just thought I'd share this tidbit of info since I haven't seen it posted before and it's saved my wife and I a lot of time.
    Hope this helps someone out there.

    That is one way to do it. There is another way, which is only slightly more difficult, but which you might find more attractive.
    Basically, iTunes expects to find your library files in the "My Music/iTunes" folder. However, "My Music" is a special system folder, its location is defined by Windows.
    If you download TweakUI, you can use it to set where your My Music folder is. So, if you create a folder that both you and your wife can access, and then set both of your My Music folders to be that folder, then you will have a shared library. No syncronization needed, changes you make to one will happen to the other because you both have the same library files.
    Only downside to this is that you can't use Fast User Switching and thus have both people logged in and using iTunes at the same time, because while one of you has the library open, the other can't access it until you close it.
    It works fine.

  • How do I share Mac music and photo files when in Windows Bootcamp mode?

    I have a new iMac with a terabyte of storage that includes about 30 gigs each of iTunes music and jpg photos. I need to share them to the Windows Bootcamp environment so I can wirelessly stream to them to a DLink DSM 320 media server connected to an AV system located in another room. When in Bootcamp Windows the the 320 can "see" the Windows machine but cannot find any media.
    So the question is, how do I share files between Mac and Windows when in Windows Bootcamp?
    A better solution would be to directly connect the Dlink when in the Mac environment but I have not been able to find software to do that (the Dlink product is for PC only.) If anyone knows of such software that would be great too.

    Windows needs third party software to see files on the MAC OS extended FS. I've heard MacDrive does this.
