Moving Pictures and Music Folders

Having run out of space on my hard drive, I have installed a new 1Tb internal disk. I have moved my Aperture library and some other large folders from (user/library) to the new disk and have added the new folders to the Finder sidebar.
How can I now make sure that applications such as iPhoto and iDVD (especially iDVD) will find the folders on the new disk when I click on the media/pictures tabs when making DVDs?
Regards,
Cliff

To move the iPhoto Library
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
iDVD will find the content of the iPhoto Library if you do it as described above.
Regards
TD

I got a new ipad mini and chose to set up as a copy of my iPad. Didn't sync the music on however as it is a smaller model, not enough room. Now trying to get some pictures and music on. Chose some pictures that were not in iPhoto, got a message that I could only sync with one library, chose cancel, and apply and it downloaded my pictures anyway. Now trying to sync some music but just get "The iPad “Linda’s iPad” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library?" So I hit cancel. Have tried several times, same thing. What can I try?

You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

Pictures and music not showing

Sorry for posting multiple times. I bought the curve recently with the media card alrdy installed. I connected the curve to laptop and transfered all the pics. and music. When i checked the media file on curve, nothing was there and more interesting i took a photo after this situation and the pictures doesnt get saved. I did a format and used the repair feature it has. It got solved but thing is whenever i connect my curve to laptop and do the transfer the problem occurs. I have 400+ pic and 500+ music. I transfered few pictures and music via bluetooth, it was working normally but transferring such huge amount is time consuming. Any sugestion ?

I updated to snow leopard recently and when i turned on my macbook every file from pictures and music was on my desktop.. are these copies? is there an easy way to put them where they belong like music with itunes, pictures in iphoto and so on

Hi, I updated to snow leopard recently and when I turned my macbook back on icons from every file of pictures and music i have were all over my desktop
how can i get them to all go to their programs like music to itunes, pictures to iphoto, do I have to do it individually? thanks for any help

If the icons have a black arrow bottom left corner, then the icons are just aliases, not the Application itself. You can move those icons to the Trash.

My pc crashed and I lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. Now i have a new pc and when i connect to itunes using my password all my music and photos are not available. they appear to be lost.

my pc crashed and i lost all my pictures and music that was stored on the pc. now i have a new pc and when i log into itunes all my music and photos are not available. I guess i dont understand the pupose of itunes and its worth. I thought it backed up all my photos and music, but apparently not. So what do I use so that when i lose data on my pc i can retrieve it again at a later date or after a crash?/

Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.

I got a new iphone and all they could do was transfer the contacts. they said if i go on my computer i can get all my pictures and music back if i recently plugged in my privious iphone to itunes. what do i do to get my music and pictures back?! help

i got a new iphone and all they could transfer was my contacts. they said if i go on my computer i can get all my pictuers and music back only if i recently plugged in my privious iphone to itunes, which i did two days earlier. they said it shhoulod be backed up on itunes. how do i get my pictures and music back? helppppp!

Sync the content to the device the same way you always have.
Or maybe it would be a good idea to read the manual and understand the proper way (according to Apple) to use the device.

My husband(less technologically inclined than I am), decided to delete programs from our iMac, now it has a grey screen and won't get past it. If I insert the Application Install DVD, to repair the disk, will I loose all my pictures and music?

With a corrupt disk, the install procedure is most likely going to fail.
How old it the disk?
You might be able to reformat it to fix the problem. Of course that means you lose all of your data.
The other alternative is to get a new disk drive and put that in your Mac and install OS X
Then put the old disk drive in an enclosure and see what can be recovered from it.

Sending Telephone Directory, Pictures and Music from Nokia 2330 to Palm TX

I'm trying to connect my Palm TX to a Nokia 2330 Classic to send telephone numbers, pictures and music to my Palm. There is no problem using bluetooth to dial from Palm to Nokia 2330. Now, how can I send my info from 2330 to my Palm TX? Any ideas anyone?

I don't think iTunes has a conversion tool. There might be third-party apps out there, but one sure-fire way to do it is to burn your tunes to a CD, then re-rip them back your PC as .mp3 files. A little clunky, but it's a way.

HT201250 how do I restore my pictures and music from the back up external drive. My machine has been serviced by apple and now I can't figure out how to reload the music and pictures.

looking for idiot proof directions on how to restore my pictures and music to my iMAC. It was services and the hard drive cleared of my files. I've reinstalled office 2011 and am now trying to ficture out how to get the pictures and music back. I backed up the machine prior to the service call, but don't seem to know how to restore the pictures and music.

It all depends on how you made the backup and with what application. How was the backup created?

Can I store and see my pictures and music from my iPhone or iPad?

Can I store and see my pictures and music from my iPhone or iPad?

The answer to this is NO.. with modifiers.
You can store your music and photos on the Time Capsule.. which I do presume is what you mean.
However the TC is not a media server.. it is a dumb as a board file device. And ipad and iphone are not files devices.. Apple has tried hard to remove that layer from you.. albeit you can buy a file browser app.
So iTunes must be running on the network in order for you to access your music or pictures..
Using the TC merely as hard disk storage area is not wise.. it was not designed to do it.. and for iphoto at least Apple says don't do it.
The way to share itunes and photos in the network is using home sharing.
How to share music and video with iTunes - Apple Support
There are heaps of articles on sharing on the apple website.. just google home share itunes.
Now you could put your itunes library on the TC but you would gain nothing.. a computer still must be turned on.. and it will be slow and not able to be included in the backups.
NOTE.. Apple says you will eventually corrupt iphoto if you put it on a network drive.. it must be local.
