Moving from one library to another
How do I move a song or video from one library to another? Like from "Music" to "TV Shows."
I got an answer to this one on another board.

This may be something easy but for some reason I am having a hard time figuring this out. Basically this is the situation: I have a library on my MBP hd that I import pictures to when I am not hooked up to my external hd for the time being. The main library is of course on the external 2tb drive. How do I have 2 libraries open so that I can essentially drag and drop the pictures from one library to another? It would basically be like moving files from one project to another. Thanks for any help!
Always keep a backup of your original images, before you delete them. I make a backup right form the card, before I even import them to Aperture.
How are your images stored right now? Are the referenced or managed? On your big volume I'd consolidate the newly imported images, to be sure they are really inside the Aperture library before I delete any images outside the library.
but they have the little yellow triangle caution symbol on them and I can see them but not really edit them
That is a very typical problem, when you imported your images as referenced images then somehow delete or move the original master image files, that are stored outside the Aperture library.
Do you still have the original masters of the images with the yellow triangle that you cannot edit? In Aperture 3 you can point Aperture to the location of the master image file "File >Locate referenced image" - probably Aperture 2 has a similar command to let you reconnect your masters, if you still have them. Look into the manual. -
How do I move photos from one library to another?
I have moved my 34gig iphoto library from my MBP to an external drive. I have now created a second library on the MBP with the intention of keeping just a smaller selection of my photos in this ready to edit.
Is there an easy way of importing photos from the old library on the external drive to the new one? Do they link up in any way, or, will I need to export a selection from the old library to a new folder on the desktop and then import from there?To move all the versions, metadata and photos from one Library to another use iPhoto Library Manager.
Exporting from one and then importing to another will not get all the metadata (Faces, for instance) nor will it get the versions.
Another way to achieve what you seem to want to do:
1. Quit iPhoto.
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the external drive.
Now you have two full copies of the Library. To choose between them: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
3. On the Internal Library, remove the pics you don't want with you all the time.
Now you have one full library on the external and another smaller sub-set on the Internal.
A couple of comments:
a. The external disk needs to be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
b: When you're removing the unwanted pics from the Internal Library you need to delete them in batches of about 100 or so. Trashing more at one time can cause problems with the database. -

How do I move pictures from one library to another?
For just a few export them out of Library A via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original and import them into Library B.
However, this will not include any edits or metadata (keywords, titles, etc.) that you've added.
To get the original image, any edits and all metadata, keywords, titles, descriptions, places, etc., you'll need the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager. It can copy albums or events from one library to another and keep those items I mentioned earlier with the photos.

How To Copy Selected Music From One Library to Another?
What is the best way to copy selected music from one library to another?
I have a big and growing iTunes library -- 33,000 songs.
A year ago I copied my library to my daughter's new iMac. Now, a year later, I'm off to visit her and wonder how best to update her library. In the past year I have added a number of items to my library and I'm sure she has done the same -- some might be the same but many will be different.
How do I update her library with the new things I've added in the past year but not wipe out things she had added or duplicate when we each have a song?
I can load any / all of my stuff on an external HD and take that to plug in to her computer. Then what? I want to avoid duplicates and make sure I get stuff like album artwork.
I'm running iTune 10.4 on an iMac with OS X 10.6.8 -- my daughter will have the same iTunes and OS X once we update her software.
Any advice would be great.
ThanksIf you're sharing the same Apple ID and all your songs are from the iTunes Store, it's easy:
In iTunes on your computer, go to File->Preferences->Store and check the box next to MUSIC under AUTOMATIC DOWNLOADS.
You should also read this article, the section titled TO DOWNLOAD PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED APPS, BOOKS, MUSIC, OR TV SHOWS TO YOUR COMPUTER:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
You could also use an rsync utility such as backuplist+ to perform a 2-way sync of the files in your two libraries while your computers are connected via FireWire with one of them in FireWire Target Disk Mode, or from your external hard drive with your daughter's computer and then to yours again. After that, you'll need to use iTunes on each computer to update its library with the new files:
http://rdutoit.home.comcast.net/~rdutoit/pub/robsoft/pages/backup.html
This last would also be the preferred method if you have authorized each other's computers for media purchased with each other's Apple IDs (i.e. you are not sharing the same Apple ID), or if you have music from sources other than the iTunes Store. Most likely, though, music from sources other than the iTunes Store would not be legal to copy in this way for this purpose, although there is probably no technical impediment. -

Best way is using the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -
you can export form one library and import into the other one but this does not get all metadata or versions

Move file from one library to another library via SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow
Can SharePoint 2010 designer be able to move a file from one library to another using workflow? I tried to use the copy list item but it won't show my destination library. I prefer not to use the 3rd part workflow like
http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
Please advise.
Brian
BrianHi Brain,
From your narration, I undersatnd that you want to move document to another library across site or site collection. However,
the copy list item action is used for coping list item to another library or list in the same site, so you can’t achieve it through ootb workflow action. So to move document to another library across site under the same site collection, then you can use site
content and structure. If across site collection, then I suggest you use that the 3<sup>rd</sup> part workflow action.
For more information about site content and structure,

How can I export Faces info from one library to another?
How can I export direct from one Library to another? Currently I am exporting to desktop and then importing to alternative Library. This works including file name and description. However Faces info is lost. How can I retain Faces info?
It is not possible to "export" face information - there is no defined place to put it
You can use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to move photos between libraries including the full metadata

Can I move a purchase from one library to another as long as it's the same account?
Can I move a purchase from one library to another as long as it's the same account?
Yes. Just copy the purchase to the user account/computer and drag it into the iTunes window or use the Add to Library command. If iTunes isn't authorized to the iTunes Store account the purchase was made through, you'll just have to authorize that system.

Hellow everyone,
I have just moved from one PC to another. They are windows pc's not macintosh. When i installed itunes on the new computer it stated that I already had 5 devices authrorized for this account. I did a little reading and went in and deathorized all 5 PC from the account as I am sure it was a couple pcs ago and a few iphones. When I try and go in and authorize an account I cant see anywhere where there is a prompt to authorize the new PC. I go into store and all it says is that there are no devices associated to this account. What I would like to do is associate my new PC and my iphone to this account and hopefully restore from the cloud all of my music and programs.
Any idea what I am doing wrong here or how I can resolve this. Thanks in advance.
Respectully.

I need to move 1000 photos from one library to another. How do I do that and keep the ratings and dates they were created? I tried exporting them, but it loses all info. Also, how do I move the quicktime movies from one iphoto library to another? They were exported as jpgs
Add both libraries to iPhoto Library Manager. Then select the events or albums that you want to copy from library A and drag them to library B in iPLM.

Move Photos from one Library to another
How can I move pictures from one library to another in Iphoto 11 ?
1. Export from one, import to the other. Though you will not get all the versions if you do this. You also need to be sure to sue the options in the Expor dialogue to write all the metadata to the files or that won't come over. Note there is no way to export Faces data.
2. Use iPhoto Library Manager to move the files and all versions and all metadata - including Faces - between libraries. However this hasn't been fully updated for iPhoto 11 so you'll need to wait a few days.
