Moving to new PC and changing path to files

Hi! I'm moving from a Windows XP machine to a new Vista machine. My iTunes library is external on a samba share so the path in my iTunes xml library file is: /Jester/music/ etc... Well, there's some bugs in getting Windows Vista to see Samba shares so I have to view it by IP address. I've mounted that IP address as a drive, so I need to just substitute the above with "M:/". I've tried copying my old library files over. If I leave them intact, iTunes sees the library & rating but can't find the songs (I have 8000+ so I don't want to go refind each one). If I try to change the XML file, iTunes apparently reloads the library from the itl file. I also tried the hack to corrupt the itl file so it would rebuild from the xml file but apparently that doesn't work anymore in iTunes 7, it just reverts back to an empty library. Any suggestions?

Thought that I would post back and say that I was able to create a Backup for a catalog under PSE 3, which required 4 CDs.
Then I ran the Restore on the new PC where only PSE 4 is installed. The Restore ran using all 4 CDs and at the end I received the message that the Catalog was from a prior version and needed to be converted. I said OK to the catalog conversion, which ran and then displayed thumbnails in the Photo Browser. When I scrolled thru the photo well there were normal "first time" delays that I attribute to the building of the thumbnails.
As of now the v4 catalog appears to be updated for the new drive and folder location on this system. The associated photo files seem generally OK, but I am still checking specifics.
For now I will run with the photo files on the only drive, the system drive. However, eventually I will probably add a second internal or external drive.
Colin and Chuck, I decided to try the PS Elements functions first and keep your information in reserve in case I discover a problem. However, I am still very grateful for the assistance.

    You should be able to change the permissions on the files.. this is yet another bungle by Mavericks I suspect.

    Sometimes it is because you Migrated wrongly.

    It is not up to Mavericks because sadly the guy who wrote all this great info died recently.

  • I am setting up a new iMac and need help syncing files to Dropbox.  On my old computer I had it set where when I saved a document, it was saved on my hard drive, as well as to a folder in Dropbox.  I can't remember how I set this up.  Any help?

    The way that Dropbox works is that it keeps a copy of all your files in your local Dropbox folder on your hard drive (which is, by default, directly under your home folder). Adding files to that folder will sync them to the Dropbox server.
    You do of course have to download the Dropbox application to enable this (download link at the top right of http://dropbox.com ).

    Hi. I recently got a new computer and transferred all my files across using TimeMachine. Whenever I try to sign into any CC program (including CC) the program instantly shuts down and an Apple error message comes up. I have uninstalled and reinstalled CC twice with no avail and deleted every Adobe product on my computer and nothing is working.

    I have seen similar discussions before... transferring does not work, you must install

  • [Solved] Hiding the file owned by 'X' and 'Y': '/path/to/file/' output

    Hello,
    After Pacman runs (after installing, upgrading, removing, etc), there is an annoying output that shows:
    ~ $ sudo pacman -S somepackage
    file owned by 'X' and 'Y': '/path/to/file'
    ~ $
    I know that the output is (usually) caused by the --force option. How can I hide this output? I can't find it in the man page, or the wiki.

    If I have read your post correctly you are getting the message because you used the force option inappropriately.  Although the example pacman command does not show you using force.  Do you get this message either with or without the force option?

  • Moving to new server and from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 at the same time

    I have 2 11.2.0.1 databases running on windows server 2008, and am moving them to a VMware server running the same OS.
    While I am doing this, I figure I may as well apply the 11.2.0.3 patch by installing it on the new server and upgrading the databases.
    I've yet to do an "out of place" patch, so I'm assuming I can do the following:
    Install 11.2.0.3 on the new server running the setup.exe -downloadUpdates command, copy backed up datafiles (from online or offiline backups) over from current prod databases, restore them with rebuild controlfile & open database, then shut down and do startup upgrade?
    Or would it be a better practice to create the databases on the new server and just do full imports?
    thanks in advance.

    Thanks - since the first one I am moving over is a test database, I just created the instance on the new server, shutdown the source test database then copied sp & control files & datafile directory structure over with data files, and decided to try DBUA rather than startup upgrade. Right now it's about 1/2 way through the upgrade so we'll see how it goes.
    For the production database I am going to first try my cloning technique then do a startup upgrade or use DBUA. What I'm thinking about doing is copying my last (user managed) online backup over (after creating the instance & directories), doing a startup no mount, rebuild the controlfile to reflect any changes, recover with backup controlfile & apply latest redo, open with resetlogs then shutdown and startup upgrade (or DBUA).
    If that works well that's probably the way I'll do the actual production roll over this way, but leave it in recover mode until I shutdown the old database and apply the last redolog, then upgrade it.
    I suppose that given these databases are relatively small I could also do the upgrade first then just drop the schemas with tables in them and do a schema level impdp.

  • I recently bought a new computer and had all my files moved to it. Now when I sync my iPad and iPod I get a message stating that some (41) of my items can not be copied to my PC because it is not authorized even though it is authorized on my account.

    I recently got a new PC and had all of my files moved to it. However, when I sync my iPad and IPod nano I get a message that states that 41 of my items can not be copied to the PC because it is not authorized on my account even though it is. I have tried de-authorizing it and re-authorizing it but they still will not copy. Any thoughts on how I can get them to copy?

    "Note: If you no longer have access to a computer that is using one of your authorizations, you can deauthorize all of the computers associated with your account by following the steps at the bottom of About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization".
    Authorize the new computer. Launch iTunes. Go to the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.
    Sync your iPod.

  • We installed a new router and changed the name of the router. Now my HP C4500 printer won't print.

    Our cable company installed a new wireless router and changed the name of the router.  Now my HP C4500 printer won't print from my laptop.
    I can't find any ot the Set Up stuff I used initially.
    Is there any way to get my printer to work again...wirelessly?

    Get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.  When you start the installation it will ask what kind of installation you would like.  Choose "Wireless" or "Network" then click "Next".
    Eventually it will ask you to plug in a USB cable to the printer temporarily to communicate the new router's info to the printer.  Make sure to not plug in the USB until it asks.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Lost messages on iPad 2 when creating new Apple ID on new iPhone and changed it on the iPad

    We have got a new iPhone5, and when setting it up the first time, a new Apple ID was typed in, unaware the problemes it would cause.
    We also changed the Apple ID on our iPad2, and lost all historic messages at iMessages.
    Is it possible to have it restored without a backup?
