Making one AAC and one AIFF library for the same albums

I would like to do the following.
Import all my CDs (done) uncompressed AIFF files to iTunes.
Then i would like to convert all AIFF files to AAC files and have those moved to a different library,.
This way I can one library that have the files I sync with iphone and ipods and one library that streams to my HIFI systems in my house.
The reason for having two, is because I dont want to have duplicate files apeering when I browse my library from remote on iPhone
I struggle to move the compressed files off to a different library, so I need som help with that.

Very simple.
Import the CDs as AIFF files to your library.
Quit iTunes.
Click the icon to launch iTunes, then immediately press and hold Option.
At the prompt, select *Create new library*, unless you already have another library with AAC files. If so, then select *Choose existing library* and select the *iTunes library file* in the iTunes folder of this library.
iTunes prefs -> General, click the Import settings and set it as you want the songs (AAC & bitrate).
Hold Option and go to menu Advanced -> Convert selection to AAC.
This will bring up a window to import and convert songs you select.
Go to the iTunes music folder of your AIFF library and select what you want.
This saves a bunch of steps such as converting in your existing AIFF to AAC, copying the songs to a folder, deleting the AAC, opening a new library, importing the AAC, deleting from the folder you copied to...

    Try testing that issue out within a new user on your Mac. If it does the same thing, then you will need to reinstall Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

    Last summer I bought a music album from iTunes. I've already transferred all my purchases from my units, but somehow iTunes wants me to pay for the same album again. When I try to add it to my wish list it simply tells me that I've already bought that item.
    And I've already tried to search for downloadable purchases.
    So fact is established, I've purchased this album before but iTunes does not recognize it.
    What to do?

    Hey sorry for the late response but I've been out of town.  I can copy and paste the email responses if necessary or desired, and if it's fixed already this is a moot point anyway, but basically they kept asking me for the order numbers for the two songs I already bought from the specific album I was trying to complete, which I eventually gave them - along with telling them multiple times that the Complete My Album feature wasn't working for ANY album.  They gave me two free song codes to compensate me for the two songs I bought, and then told me to go and buy the album at full price, but the ENTIRE TIME they COMPLETELY ignored that I was telling them that this wasn't an issue with one album but was a larger, seemingly systematic issue that other people were experiencing.  Even after I got the song codes I emailed them back and said AGAIN that this wasn't an isolated feature, and they just sent me the link to the apple Feedback page (http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html) and told me to submit my complaint there.  So, technically, my issue was never really "resolved," in that they never fixed the Complete My Album feature that I am aware of - or even acknowledged that anything needed fixing, but I haven't tested it since Sunday.
    If it's working for you, then hopefully they fixed it!  I've noticed they've updated to 10.4.1, but the notes don't indicate they're fixing anything about the Complete My Album feature, so I don't know.

  • ITune has created several folders for the same album title.  How do I consolidate those folders into 1?

    iTune has created several folders for the same album title.  How do I consolidate those folders into 1 without consolidating all albums?

    I don't think you want to combine all of the HTML into one file. That doesn't make too much senese. If you wanted to, then just copy everything from all 3 files between <body></body> and paste into one html file between <body></body>. I think what you're trying to do is create seperate static pages. I would read/youtube how to setup a blogger website.

  • Songs for the same album are in different entries on my iPod

    First of all, this problem isn't caused by album name misspelling(or unknown spacing in album names).
    In iTunes, all the songs on the album "Black Holes and Revelations" are displayed together in one entry.
    However, in my iPod, the songs get separated to different entries. Some entries have 2 or 3 songs in them, some have 1.
    The entries for the songs have two different names. Some are listed as "Black Holes And Revelations" (a of and is capitalized), some are listed as "Black Holes and Revelations". However in iTunes, they are all listed as "Black Holes and Revelations" (no capitalization on the "and"). Syncing does not fix the problem, the songs of this album are omitted through the process (iTunes/iPod thinks that the album names are identical during the sync even though some of the "and"s are different.).
    There are a total of 8 entries for the same album. All of the album artworks of the songs are accurate.
    The iPod in question is a 160 GB iPod Classic

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • Sideways and Vertical displays different for the same song

    When I play music on my iPod touch 4th generation, the name of the song appears normally in the vertical position, but the first word is omitted in the sideways display. ("Awake And Alive" displays as "And Alive" when sideways.) How can I fix this?

    Hello Beverly,
    Thank you for the question.  I would be concerned too if I received two emails for the same purchase. 
    I suggest checking your purchase history in the iTunes Store to see if there are two separate charges listed for this song.  Use the steps in the following article to check your purchase history in the iTunes Store:
    iTunes Store: See your purchase history and web order numbers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    If you do in fact see two separate charges for the same song, you can report the issue to the iTunes Store using these steps:
    To report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase, follow these steps:
    Find the email receipt for your purchase.
    Click Report a Problem under the app that is having the issue.
    When prompted, enter the Apple ID and password you used to purchase the item, then click Report a Problem.
    Click Report a Problem next to the item you are having an issue with.
    From the Choose Problem dropdown menu, choose the appropriate issue.
    Follow the onscreen instructions and—if prompted—type a description of the problem into the text field.

  • Multiple Entrys for the same Album

    Hello
    I ripped an Album (Till Broenner, "Oceana") to my Computer. Everthing is working fine, but iTunes shows it as 5 (!!!) separate Albums.
    I tried to change the Album information in order to bring it all together again, but it was no use.
    iTunes even recognises that it is all from the same Album, including the correct Track number, but shows them nonetheless as 5 different Albums with exactly the same Informations and the same Cover.
    This is annoying and I have this problem with a couple of other Albums as well.
    What can I do to stop it???
    Thanks a million for any clue

    This should fix it...
    Select all the tracks in iTunes (click on the first and then hold down shift and click on the last).
    Select File, Get Info
    Make sure there are entries for Artist, Album Artist, and Album (if not, type them in)
    Finally, click on Options (near the top of the Get Info window), check "Part of a compilation", and set that option to Yes.
    (I know it's not a compilation in this case, but some of the tracks are 'featuring' another artist, so I think that's what the problem is)

  • Is possible search all the files in one folder and get list all with the same extension.??

    Hi,
    I would like to get, if it is possible, do searching in one determinate folder and get all the files with the same extension, For example, Give the *.pou and get all the files on one list of the files in this folder and sub-folders...
    If it is possible i would like to see any example.
    Thanks a lot, Fonsi.

    Hi Dennis,

    The problem is with the target path, when i want use the browse, it doesnt run properly. I want select one carpet, and it demands one file, i dont understand why??, i changed the options browse but it didnt work. Also i would like when i put one path if folder doesnt exist, directly create it and save the files, if exist copy it.
    Thanks for all!. I attached the file in lv 7.1

  • Cannot see BOTH synched library AND iTunes Match library at the same time

    I ran iTunes Match on my library of MP3 files and hit the maximum allowed 25,000 song limit in my paid iTunes Match account. Then I created a new version of my local/PC iTunes library with those 25,000 MP3 songs removed, and synchronized it with my iPhone 4s running IOS7 and iTunes Match turned OFF. So far so good.
    So now I theoretically have no duplication between my 25,000 song iTunes Match library and my local iTunes library that resides on my PC.
    But even though I have the "Show All Music" setting on the phone turned on, the iTunes Match songs don't appear on my iPhone until I also turn the iTunes Match setting on. But as soon as I do that, all of the songs I synched from my local iTunes library on my PC completely disappear- having been completely replaced by my iTunes Match library. If I then turn the iTunes Match setting off again (while still leaving "Show All Music on"), the iTunes Match songs also disappear, leaving my iPhone music library completely empty. Have I misunderstood the meaning of the "Show All Music" setting, or is something malfunctioning?
    My question is: How can I make ALL of my songs (both the ones I have previously captured in ITunes Match AND the ones I synched with my PC via iTunes) appear on my iPhone at the same time?  This scenario seemed to be working just fine under IOS6 on the same iPhone.

    I had a somewhat similar experience.  When I enabled paid iTunes Match on my iPhone 5, iOS7, all of my locally-stored songs on the iPhone disappeared and remained gone even after I disabled iTunes Match on the iPhone.
    A chat session with Apple support revealed that iTunes Match will in fact supersede any synched content on the iPhone.  The suggestion from Apple support was to download on the phone all the previously-synched content via iTunes Match wireless connection.  Of course, that would take hours if not days.  And that crazy workaround won't help you because you want songs other than what you have in the Cloud.
    It appears that various members of this forum have not had this same experience.  I'm not sure what's going on here.  Usually with Apple's tight control of hardware and software these anomalies are avoided.
    And I didn't really need iTunes Match except I wanted commercial-free iTunes Radio (which I think is great, by the way).  At least for now, commercial-free radio (with a paid subscription) can be achieved only by enabling all of the iTunes Match features.  I'm not sure why Apple requires this bundling unless its part of a general push to a streaming model for everything (more revenue opportunities) as opposed to supporting local storage.

  • Excisable and Non Excisable plants for the same customer and same material

    Hi All,
    We have a customer who purchases the SAME goods from two different plants, one plant is Excisable and another plant is Non Excisable. So sales area of the customer is same for both the plants. When customer buys from Excisable plant Excise Duties should applicable and when the same customer buys from Non Excisable plant Excise Duties should not be applicable. If I maintain the Excise indicator as 1 in customer's J1ID then Excise Duties are applicable for the customer from wherever he buys the goods.(If he buys the goods from Excisable and Non Excisable plants Excise Duties are flowing).
    So, my query is: if the customer buys from non-Excisable plant, Excise Duties should not flow.
    So I am planning to create a new sales org for Non Excisable plant, then the sales area of the customer will change.
    Is there any other way to over come this issue? Plz guide me.
    Thanx&Regards,
    RAMU

    Dear Ramu
    My suggestion is creating a new sales organization is not  required just to fulfill this excise requirement.
    Let us assume you have two plants
    -  1000 is excisable and
    -  2000 is non excisable
    for material ABC
    Now go to J1ID, select the tab "Material and Chapter ID combination"  and maintain the excise tax indicator for plant 1000 only.
    By doing so, while creating sale order, you input the delivering plant and based on the settings you maintained in J1ID, excise duty will be determined in that sale order.
    thanks

  • I've made a collection of songs in garageband, and have them now as .aif files in my itunes library under the same album name. How do I trim the beginnings and endings of the tracks so that my album flows better?

    I "shared" the songs I made in garageband to itunes. Now the songs have some extra time of silence after they end, which makes the album i'm trying to put together feel more broken. I want to make the tracks flow perfectly through each other. I want to do it permanently, also, so that when i share the album it doesn't have space in it.
    In the past I have imported all the songs into one garageband file and arranged them so they slightly overlap as a continuous track but then i didn't know how to split them back up so the tracks would still be actually separated. I can't find any information on this. I know I can sort of cut the songs in the "get info" options in itunes, but the song still lists as longer, itunes just makes it jump early.
    Thanks

    For the missing Artists on your iPod, make sure their tracks in iTunes are not marked as "Part of a compilation" in iTunes. You can do this by highlighting the track, right->clicking on them and choosing "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Info tab and make sure there is NO tick mark next to this option in the lower right hand corner. Lastly, sync the updated changes to your iPod.

  • Print and even print preview comes out unreadable. Do i need to change any internal print options. My printer works with the old firefox and windows internet explorer for the SAME document. I only have a problem printing while in firefox 4.0.

    My printouts from web pages using the previous firefox and internet explorer products work.

    There's a bug in 4.0b12, which is fixed in 4.0RC.
    Open '''Help > About Firefox''' and it should check for and install the update. If it doesn't, use the '''Check for Update''' button in that "About" dialog.
