Making mp3s instead of m4a files for your own hard drive?
I taped some guys where I work playing some bagpipes. I created an aiff file from FCP to my hard drive. I was trying to figure out how to create an mp3 file from the aiff file. I was able to create an m4a file, but I still have not figured out how to create an mp3 file for the pc'ers to be able to play it on their computer.
Thanks for any help
In iTunes, go to Preferences > Advanced > Importing. Change the "Import Using": tab fom "AAC Encoder" to "mp3 Encoder".

Guide Screws for your new Hard Drive.
Thought I would share this as I ran into the issue of recently receiving a new internal HD with out the guide screws. My initial searches for these little gems (due to their surprising price) was disappointing as I was finding the **** things to cost almost as much as new drive. $75!?
Anyways after some determined search to find better prices I came across this site and found the screws for $15 for a set of 4. I have already received them and everything worked out fine.

Best, BlasI'm pretty sure the guiding screws for the second drive were inlcuded inside my Power mac G5 ... cannot remember where they were located (near the second drive bay) but I can state they were !!!
I have not the installation guide at hand now but can remember that was indicated there.

Virtualbox - install build and header files for your current kernel
I have initially installed virtualbox before upgrading the Arch
Also took backup of the kernle before upgrading since kernel26 2.6.30 is having problem with virtualbox
After upgrading I have configure the grub to use the previous kernel i.e 2.6.28
Later installed xorg and want to install the video drivers from VBox additions
but running
sh VBoxLinuxAdditions_x86.run
i get the following
install build and header files for your current kernel
The current kernel version is 2.6.28 Arch
What are the build and header files I have to install or search with pacman
And since i have upgraded the system will I able to look up the header and build files needed for kernel 2.6.28dmartins - he's talking about his kernel's headers, not the kernel-headers package - they are two very differnet things.
sant527 - when you backed up the 2.6.28 kernel, did you remember the files in /usr/src/linux-2.6.28-ARCH/ ? They're what VBox is looking for. -
Moving files to a USB Hard drive - I want to MOVE instead of COPY
Hey folks, complete mac newbie here...
Quite often I have the need to move files +to my USB Hard Drive from my mac hard drive+ so they are not taking up space on my Mac, and on a PC this is easy, just drag with the right mouse button and on dropping it gives you the option of copying or moving.
However I cannot seem to find an easy solution to moving instead of it just making a copy. Its very laborious copying the file then manually deleting the file on my mac.
ThanksBe careful. The Mac is actually trying to keep you from making a mistake. You should always have at least two copies of your data at all times. I believe if you hold the Command key as you drag, it will "move" as opposed to copy. But in doing so, you'll still only have ONE copy of your data. Any power failure during the copy might cause you to lose all copies of the transfer.

use a MyBook for Mac external hard drive.
I need space on garageband or the entire hard drive, since I am getting the "need space on the hard drive" messages.
It's scary to move my precious music files!
How should I move them to the external and feel safe about doing so?
Or are there other methods besides the obvious, clearing caches, deleting the trash and downloads, etc., that are recommended?
I am doing music now and producers are waiting for the new vocals!
Help!
Thanks!The process is as simple as just copying your Garageband project to the external drive and deleting from the macs hard drive. But before you delete anything you really need to back them up to someplace else also. Having just one copy is not safe. Get another external drive, DVDs or even flash drives, you absolutely need anything important in more then one place.

Does iTunes match need to locate the actual files or just see its record in your library database? I am currently traveling in US and I have US and Australian iTunes accounts. But all my music files are on a hard drive in Australia. Can I start using itunes music match while I am travelling without the actual music files attached to my itunes?
In your situation I strongly recommend you read over that KB article. The international iTunes Stores are not cross-compatible.
My understanding of how it would work is that when activating iTunes Match on your US Store account, any songs you have in your iTunes Library that were purchased from the AUS Store account will NOT be matched. As I understand it, those files will be uploaded (which means you need the files on a local HDD). I also do not think it is possible to have iTunes Match active on more than one store ID on the same computer. But since iTunes Match is not available internationally yet, that point is moot for the moment.
To be honest you might want to wait until the service is available internationally so you can guage how will it will serve you. -
I recently moved my Aperture Library file to an external hard drive. Can I now create a vault to be saved on my Time Capsule for the Aperture library on this external hard drive?
One thing to bear in mind, if you are using Time Machine on your Time Capsule and have it set so the TM backup includes your external drive, you will effectively be backing up your Aperture library twice on the same drive, once with Time Machine and once with the vault. This isn't a problem unless you start to run out of space.
Another thing to note, vaults on network drives used to be flaky (i.e. not really supported) and required workarounds to be able to use them. I'm not sure if this has changed, but I just managed to create a vault on my TC ok. -
How Do You View PHP Files on Your Own Computer?

Want to save my iTunes files in an external hard drive to free up space for next semester
I'd like to save my college music itunes files in an external hard drive to free space for next semester's music stuff.........how to proceed ???? need detailed guidance....thanx
Copy all your iTunes music to external HDD
Finder -> Music -> iTunes and select your library
In iTunes. select iTunes preferences (in top bar of Mac screen) Then click Advanced. Deselect "Copy files to iTunes media when adding to library".
Highlight all your songs in iTunes and delete them. Then re import them, you can just click on the file named music on your external HDD to import all of your songs.
Once they're imported delete the original iTunes library on your Mac HDD. iTunes will now look to your externak HDD to play your music. -
How can I transfer files off an external hard drive formatted for windows?
I just bought my first mac (yay!) and am trying to transfer my files off of my old pc. The problem is that I stored all my personal files on an external hard drive, which is of course formatted for windows. My mac will open it, but it is "read only." I tried plugging it back into my pc and using the Migration Assistant to transfer my files over, but it was not detected (rest of the pc was).
However, the second time I tried plugging it in to my pc, it told me it would need to be formatted first. Obviously my mac has changed something on it, and now all my personal files are on a hard drive that is unusable by either my old pc or my new mac!
Any suggestions would be appreciated! Heads up though, I am not especially computer literate, and my pc needs to stay intact as the husband needs it and some of the programs on it for school. Also, I have a second external hard drive that is brand new with nothing on it, if that will come in handy.
Thanks!Format the extra HDD to EXFAT as previously indicated. There are two ways that can use to transferr the data.
1. Connect both drives to the PC and the copy the files to the newly formatted (EXFAT) drive from the HDD with the data . Then connect the EXFAT drive to the MBP and transfer the data to same.
2. Connect both drives to the MBP and open DISK UTILITY>RESTORE. Drag the drive with the data on it to the 'Source' field. Drag the EXFAT drive to the 'Destination' field. Click on the 'Restore' butt is on. After the transfer has been completed, close DISK UTILITY and place the data on the MBP where you want it.

I had files stored on a hard drive that were not on my Mac. I used the hard drive for my first Time Machine back up, but it was not enough hard drive space to finish. Now those stored files are gone. Is there any way I can recover them? No, they were not part of previous Time Machine backups, and I have checked both the hard drive the documents were lost on and the new one that I now use for backups. Any suggestions would be helpful, as the lost files are old pictures that are gone forever. :[ Thanks!
1. Yes, if both drives are formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
2. Reformat the drives if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, and remove the drive with the pictures from the list of items set to be excluded.

How to move your library files from one internal hard drive to another
I have two internal hard drives on my computer, one 500GB SSD for games and other programs that require fast access, and one 2TB for more bulky items, like videos, music and back ups.
The problem is that my SSD is pretty much full because my iTunes library location defaults to the "my music" folder which is located on the SSD, I would like to move the location of the iTunes library files to my 2TB hard drive in order to free up some space on my SSD (about 100GB).
I have tried to set the destination of the library via the preferences in the extras tab but that just seems to copy the files rather than move them, so it still needs them on my solid state in order to play them.
Please if there is a solution to this problem could you tell me
CheersClose iTunes.
Move the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the current drive to it's new location.
While holding SHIFT launch iTunes.
Continue holding until iTunes prompts to create a new library or locate an existing library.
Select the option to locate and point iTunes to the new location of the iTunes folder. -
I want to transfer files from a functioning hard drive in a nonfunctioning MacBook Pro to an external drive. I have an IDE/SATA drive adapter. The files won't fit on the drive for a working computer I have. Can I use it to transfer files to the external drive?
Good luck and you are welcome.
Like I said, I bought one of their inexpensive enclosures and now can use the hard drive just as a source for the files that are on it...my external drives are much larger and faster so I just plug that drive in when I need something from it.
This one is on sale for $16 http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/ES2.5BPU2S/
