Multiple library question

Is it possible to create a second music library and copy songs from the origianl music library and add them to the new library? I'm gettting an 8gb nano to go with my 30gb 5.5. I'd like my new nano to have it's own seperate music library, but having many of the same music that is in my original library. I've been looking in itunes help and I see info on how to create a seperate library, but nothing about both libraries having the same or nearly the same content. Is this possible? Thanks in advance.

Quick Multiple Library Question.

Hi all,
My wife's iPhoto library is hitting 60gigs. Time to split it up. My goal is to keep only this last year (2011) on her laptop and have years 2001-2010 in a separate library on and external HD. Now this library is ten plus years of cropping, adjusting, tagging, organizing and other heavy editing, so I'm trying to find a way to do this without reimporting the originals and modified folders and setting the whole thing back to square one...
My question is this:
Can I duplicate her existing iPhoto library and then just simply rename it?
I'd move the renamed duplicate to the external HD, then she can just delete years 2001-20010 within the library on her laptop and then delete 2011 pics within the external HD one.
That way all her events and folders and edits stay intact, right?
Thanks in advance,
Derrick

Make sure the external is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
Here's one way to do what you want:
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 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: Managing Multiple Libraries - including moving pics/albums/rolls and metadata between them - is greatly facilitated by using iPhoto Library Manager
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.
c: Remember you need a back up on another disk for that Library on the External.

Best app to import and study multiple choice questions.

Hi,
I'm searching for an app to help study for an exam.
Part of the studying strategy is to study by the previous exams questions. I have those (a lot of them) in text format.
The app would need to have:
- Support for multiple-choice questions;
- Easy, fast and automated way of importing the questions;
Would be nice to have:
- Ability to include a rich-text comment along with the right/wrong answer;
- Support for tagging each questions.
I've used the search function and found this:http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1041085 but it's been a while since then.
thanks in advance

Multiple Choice Question Issues

I am embedding a quiz within my presentation with individual
question slides interspersed throughout the presentation. These
questions are pulled from a couple of different question pools. I
want to use a multiple choice question that branches to different
parts of the presentation depending on the correct or incorrect
answer. If the user answers the question incorrectly, I send them
to the next slide which has two click boxes. On this slide, they
can either click one box to move back in the presentation and
review the material or click another box to move them forward to
another multiple choice question. If they go back and review the
information, they would eventually return to the same multiple
choice question to try it again. (This is the desired navigation,
anyway.)
What actually happens is that when the user goes back to
review the information and then finally returns to the question,
the question has not been reset and still shows the incorrect
answer marked with no way to clear it.
I have used this same navigation on a drag-and-drop type
question and it works fine. All the settings for the
multiple-choice questions are set the same as in the drag-and-drop
question.
Any help in making this work correctly would be greatly
appreciated.

I can't see where that error might arise except possibly for a case where an AS2 radio is used since it appears they don't have a group property, but an AS3 radio button does. Check to be sure that your Flash Publish Settings are set to use AS3. AS3 errors normally have error numbers which also makes the error you quoted ring of an AS2 scenario.
Here's a link to the file I made based on your code that works fine and doesn't display the errors you mention. It is a CS3 file.

Multiple library files

Hi everyone!
I am still sorting through some issues I am having with songs missing even though they are listed in a library or playlist. Here is what I am discovered: itunes has multiple library files for some reason. All itunes music is located on an external harddrive. It is here that I see the following:
itunes library (with itunes icon)
itunes library.xml (with text icon)
itunes music library.xml (with text icon)
itunes Music (folder amongst the musician folders)
I am concerned that these files are causing issues. Can I delete the files that are .xml and keep the itunes library (with itunes icon)? Will this affect any "purchased" songs?
Thanks so much for your help and expertise!

*itunes has multiple library files for some reason*
Because it makes these files.
Those are all the correct files and folders.
itunes Music (folder amongst the musician folders) should be the folder where al the artist/album folders are. You should not have an iTunes music folder inside the iTunes music folder.
The .xml file is created by iTunes for other applications. If you delete it, iTunes will simply recreate it.
Here's some info -> http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93732

Multiple choise question, limit number of options

Hi,
we have a multiple choise question with 10 possible answers. 5 is correct, and 5 is not. How can I limit so the user only can check 5 answers? Right now, the user can check all 10 and get full score.
Im using Captivate 8.
Kind regards,
Pontus

Hi,
I am relatively new to Captivate (currently using version 7) and have also been looking at this. I have a programming background so have been mucking around with trying to create this using advanced actions so would appreciate some advice if I've gone about it the right way or not.
I have created 4 answers with clickable smart shapes to show whether they are selected/deselected. I have variables to store the number of allowed answers, number of selected answers and question score (which update with the selecting/deselecting of each answer). To keep things simple, I am assigning 1 point for every correct answer selected and only have 2 correct answers. There are 3 separate 'submit' buttons (one worth 0 points and not included in quiz, one worth 1 point included in quiz and one with 2 points included in quiz). Depending on the answers chosen, the relevant submit button will be made visible (and the others hidden).
What I'm having trouble with is that the points from the submit buttons that are included in the quiz are all contributing to the total points available. I want the question to only be worth 2 points but because I have two buttons (one worth 1 and one worth 2) that means the total points available for the quiz is 3.
Any help on where to go from here much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris.

Multiple library.xml files normal?

I just made 2 iTunes libraries, both located in the Music folder on my internal HD. One is just called "iTunes" which gets backed up with time machine, and the other is called "iTunes For Backup", which I use for temporary music projects etc that I exclude from backup to save space.
The one called "iTunes For Backup" has an "iTunes Library.xml" file as normal, but the "iTunes" folder has both an "iTunes Library.xml" file AND an "iTunes Music Library.xml" file.
After playing around, I discovered that if I start from scratch and create a new library called "iTunes", initially it will create just the "iTunes Library.xml" file, but as soon as I've added songs and quit, it creates a second file called "iTunes Music Library.xml". If I create a new iTunes library and name it anything other than "iTunes", only an "iTunes Library.xml" is ever created, which I think is normal behaviour.
To be honest I don't even know if this is a problem, but I've never seen multiple Library.xml files inside the same iTunes folder before. And why it would have anything to do with what you name the library seems baffling. It strikes me as very odd behaviour so I thought I would throw it out there out of curiousity to see if this is normal. I'd hate to find out it's a problem after I've built a huge library.

I'm wondering the exact same thing.
I'm able to find a lot of resources on the itunes library.xml file, but hardly anything on the itunes music library.xml file…
I'm also lost as to how I import my playlists back into iTunes. I keep my music on an internal 'Media' partition and am pretty well versed with OSX, but can't seem to figure it out… All the problems relate back to both of these XML files. Importing one will import some of the playlists, but not all… Weird

Creating Multiple Response Questions.....

Hi.
I'm looking at updating a load of Java Applets here at work
accross to Flash.
I'm not looking at using the quiz templates but wondered if
anyone can help me out?
Basically I need to create a multiple response question using
an xml file and was wondering on the best way to achieve this?
Any help would be much appreciated.

I need to use an xml file for the questions and answers.
And there are more than 1 correct answer for the questions.
I'm pretty new to actionscript so a few pointers in the right
direction would be a great help to me.
Should I be using the xml component? The dataset components?
Check box components for the questions?
How do I get the xml to interact with the flash.... sorry for
all the questions.

Adobe Captivate 8 system variable "cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice" is empty for random multiple-choice questions.

Does anyone run into this problem when capturing the user answer for a random question slide? Adobe Captivate 8 system variable "cpQuizInfoAnswerChoice" is empty for random multiple-choice questions.

Hi Shriyansh.
The reason I am interested in capturing the user answers in Submit All situation is that I know after I published the test using SCORM 2004, all the user responses were captured in "cmi.suspend_data" because my test can resume the test to the last exit question in the middle. However, when I looked at the suspend data value, I have a hard time to understand the pattern and pick out the meaningful user question responses data. I really need help from you to understand how the suspend data value was constructed and how to parse this data. Another area I thought it's easy to get the user question responses data is the interaction records, but I always got only one question (the last randomly sampled question) interaction record. See the following generated XML SCORM 2004 4th edition data. Could you help me figure out how to interpret the following suspend data to get the users responses to each test question? And why I only got one question interaction record? Thanks again for your help, Zhuoran.

Adobe Font Library Question

I work for a large company and we just purchased the entire library of fonts from Adobe. We use both macs and pcs in our office. The fonts that were sent were "Open Type". I have a few questions:
1. We had been using "Type 1". Has "Open Type" replaced all of type 1 fonts?
2. There were several fonts that we used as type 1 that are not showing up in our Adobe Font library of type (Example: Helvetica Narrow). Does Adobe no longer support that font? Are there others available to purchase, or does the Adobe Font Folio CD cover all type that is available?
Thanks,

Great question - I'm trying to get the answer from Adobe right now. I will post back if I get a meaningful reply... from what I can discern not all type 1 fonts have been 1) converted to open type or 2) included in the Font Folio open type version (which is what I presume your company purchased)
PS Just got reply while composing.... try emailing [address deleted by forum staff - see http://www.adobeforums.com/Typography/661 for list] for a list of the typefaces in the FontFolio package (reference doc-> FFOTEFontList.pdf) Seems to me if the font you now use isn't in the package you might be stuck with your old version.
Here's a copy of the msg she forwarded me from her manager (JR) - Good luck!
1) How many fonts WON"T be upgraded (meaning we'll have to keep the Postscript versions)
[JR] Although Type 1 fonts built on multiple master (MM) technology were converted to OpenType, MM's main feature of allowing adjusting height/weight axes is not converted. Instead, customers will have to choose corresponding Opentype fonts that approximate the various weights; a conversion chart of MM-to-OT fonts should be posted at http://studio.adobe.com/type/ at some point soon, but if the customer wants a copy sooner, I have one.
As far as Type 1 fonts the customer *should keep*, pi (symbol) fonts in Type 1 format may need to be retained, as some symbols cannot be accessed by some applications for current OpenType fonts. The customer can read more in the OpenType ReadMe, here: http://store.adobe.com/type/browser/OTReadMe.html#Anchor-Pi
1a) From your msg below: What does this mean? Does this mean we have to keep all our PS fonts? - All converted Type 1 to OpenType fonts*
[JR] Except for the instances mentioned above, customers should not need to retain Type 1 equivalents of OpenType fonts. All base characters accessible in the Type 1 versions should be accessible in OpenType, in all applications. There are some known limitations, however, discusses in the OpenType ReadMe, here, however, that should be noted: http://store.adobe.com/type/browser/OTReadMe.html#Anchor-22064
2) How many fonts are actually NEW? (OPEN TYPE)
[JR] There are 61 new fonts on FFOTE that were not on Font Folio 9.0. These include Brioso Pro, Montara Std, Moonglow Std, Organica Std and Arcana Std Manuscript.
3) Can I get a list that answers the 2 above questions.
[JR] This will be somewhat labor intensive, but I can supply some preliminary information, if you'd like.
4) We also got a bunch of Image Club fonts when we got Font Folio... are those now part of the open type package? We've since lost the disc and are in the process of replacing it but I wonder if it is wasted effort if its - but that's another story
[JR] Although Image Club was at one time an Adobe-held company, it's very difficult to know what fonts they had rights to sell at this point. Adobe may not have retained (and likely did not retain) the rights to every font in the Image Club library, once we divested the company. The best way to know is to compare their Image Club fonts against the complete FFOTE font list, attached.
Hope this helps!

How do i create a non-scored multiple answer question?

Hi,
I've tried to figure out the best way to do this in Captivate 7, but can't find an answer. I hope you can help me out as I'm stuck
I need to create a question with 10 possible answers. They are opinions only---not correct or incorrect.
Kind of like:
"You are going shopping. What do you want to buy?"
1. apples
2. bread
3. milk
4. muffins
5. flour
6. juice
7. pasta
8. dishwashing soap"
etc.
The learner should be able to select none, some, or all and then click submit and advance to next slide, with no feedback given. I do not need to track anything for the LMS.
What should I use to do it? Interaction, Quiz, Survey, or Widget?
I am pretty weak with variables, so hopefully your solution will be simple
thanks!

Strange... You could have a MCQ that is a survey instead of a graded question (no score automatically) with multiple answers. Delete all the feedback messages and keep the buttons you want, only Submit is really necessary, you decide for the other buttons. But then the user will have to check at least one option. Maybe you can add the option 'I don't know' or 'I cannot choose'? That will be an easy solution.

How can I get multiple likert questions on one slide?

Hi,
I have 9 questions I want to ask in a Likert survey in Captivate 7.
When I insert a Likert question slide, it defaults to only show 1 question per slide.
I want the learner to see all 9 questions on 1 slide.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
thanks!

In Captivate 7, if you select the Likert scale and go to the Quiz Properties tab, under the General tab you can change the Answers from 1 to a higher number and get a nice list of items to go with your disagree to agree list.
That's my relevant to the thread comment and here for posterity to anyone looking for the answer to it.
But I came here because I want a total from the Likert and it doesn't exist during the lesson, since it doesn't report scoring back to the student.
I've been reading your older blogs. Lilibiri, great stuff that makes me wish there were a simpler way in the newer version, but I can't find it. Basically we are creating a question series that becomes a self evaluation checklist, and want to assign the point range to the answers, 1 for disagree up to 5 for Agree, adding up "positive traits".
Was originally thinking of using multiple choice set as a pretest but there's a bunch of variables and actions to write for that, and I saw your post about a simple text entry, which looks more manageable and I'll have to figure that out.
But the simple clean familiar look of the Likert ... I wish there were an easy way to just get those numbers in a total, now that it's in version 7 even. So annoying that it pushes my procrastination button and I don't even want to work on the rest of my lesson!

I want to set up an iPod for my dad... (Multiple Libraries Question)

My dad has a early Shuffle (back when HP made 'em), and has grown tired of no screen and all. Being technologically deficient as he is, I was going to give him my old iPod Video for Father's Day (since I'm getting the iPhone, hopefully), and have it loaded full of stuff.
If I use that Multiple Libraries deal, I can make a library for him, with his taste in music (that I want to stay far away from my library), and it won't affect my library at all, right? Max, I'd go into this library once a month, while I use my library every other day.

It is possible to have multiple libraries in a single account and use each one for a different iPod without affecting the other. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library but if you are only going to update your Dad's iPod periodically this shouldn't be an issue:
