My library is.. well.. I don't know the word.

My iTunes library is fine.
But my iTunes music folder.. is missing things. Like songs I added to my Library years ago are not in the music folder. Is there a way to make iTunes put everything in the Library into its music folder?
I saw this link:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313
But I was not sure if that is what I want or not.
I would really like my Library to be reflected/copied into the Music folder with all the artists in their folders or whatever.
Could anyone help me? =[

Yes, the links get changed.
That is why I wrote, "If you do as above, everything already in iTunes will get moved and will work in iTunes"
But I use the external hard drive to store stuff.
STOP!
Okay, let's start all over.
You have iTunes and it works.
You have a bunch of music in iTunes.
You wrote "But my iTunes music folder.. is missing things. Like songs I added to my Library years ago are not in the music folder."
Are these songs in iTunes but not in the music folder?
If you read & do my first response in this topic, here's what will happen.
1 - All music you can now see & play in iTunes will get copied into the iTunes music folder. The location for this fiolder is shown in iTunes prefs-> Advanced.
2 - All music on your computer will be in iTunes and in the iTunes music folder.
3 - You will not have any music outside of the iTunes music folder.

  • I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

    I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

    You cannot do that.  The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address.  The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well).  You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
    You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
    I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

  • I want to create an intelligent file to show all pictures with 3 stars or more. Trying this, I don't know the character of the stars to fill in the respective box ??

    I want to create an intelligent file in my finder to show all pictures with 3 stars or more. Trying this, I don't know the character of the stars to fill in the respective box ??
    Thanks for your help.

    Take a look here: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110314131100623
    One of the comments suggests you can't use greater than or less than with the star rating in Finder.
    You might try a Raw Query with the kMDItemStarRating.
    In the criteria popup menu, select Other, then find the Raw Query entry.
    You might have to play around with the syntax, but try "kMDItemStarRating >= 3"

  • In sun's j2sdkee:abou JNDI,I don't know the two paramters' value

    In sun's j2sdkee, I deploy my first EJB, and I run a client code to test it.
    but I don't know the two paramters' value:
    java.naming.provider.url
    (Context.PROVIDER_URL)
    and
    java.naming.factory.initial
    (Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY)
    Do I need to install another a naming and directory server?????
    when I start j2ee, is there a naming and directory server already running?
    thanks a lot!

    The PROVIDER_URL gives the JNDI api knowledge about where to begin a tree. The tutorial on it can be found here: http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/beyond/url/config.html
    For example, when using JNDI to explore a filesystem, the PROVIDER_URL tells JNDI which directory to start with:
    env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "file:/");For a JNDI call to a J2EE server, it tells the JNDI api which machine and port it needs to connect to in order to retrieve JNDI objects.
    Using JNDI to access an LDAP server, you may need a PROVIDER_URL like this: ldap://somehost:389.
    The INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY specifies the java classes that will translate and map your JNDI requests to the physical media you're accessing. This could be classes that know how to traverse a filesystem, or an LDAP instance, or a J2EE server. In the Sun tutorial, they use the following class to examine the filesystem of a local computer:
    env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
        "com.sun.jndi.fscontext.FSContextFactory");So, to answer your question, NO, you do not need another naming and directory server. The J2EE server will have all the infrastructure in place to handle your request for the EJB. How are you requesting your EJB? If it's from a webapp within the J2EE server or another EJB, you may not need to specify any of the above mentioned information, and you may be able to get by with just InitialContext context = new InitialContext();.
    If you're trying to reference the EJB from a standalone application, you'll need to specify both the PROVIDER_URL and INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY. You may also need to provide the SECURITY_PRINCIPAL (username) and SECURITY_CREDENTIALS (password) as well.
    Let me know exactly how you're trying to access your EJB and I may be able to help your further.
    Thanks,
    Perry Tew

  • I purchased an used macbook and I don't know the old owners password, how can I reset it?

    I purchased an used macbook and I don't know the old owners password, how can I reset it?

    Well, it is part of the Mac. So you were shortchanged.
    Call AppleCare and ask them to send you a replacement set. They will ask for the serial number and model number to sure they are give you the correct set. They will charge you a nomibnal fee for shipping and handling.

  • I don't know the unlock code...

    Ok recently when i was in the car i had set my ipod down. Then when i picked it back up i found on the screen that it said enter code and had this little lock on it. Well i was happy to find that i could make the screen go away and still listen to my ipod, but later i found out that i couldnt turn the volume up all the way. I went to settings and clicked on volume limit to see if that was why the volume had changed, and when i clicked on it that enter code page popped up again. so obviously a lock had been put on it but i don't know the code. Is there any way to get it off?

    ok nevermind about that I finally figured out the code. all i did was go through all the possible combinations and thankfully it was one of the first few i tried.

  • Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

    Please can someone help, I have a question in my coursework that I don't know the answer to! Explain how PostScript fits into the design process?

    The simple answer is that today PostScript really doesn't fit at all into the Graphic Design process, at least in terms of what the graphic designer needs to know.
    Historically, though, the PostScript imaging model, first introduced circa 1984 provided the basis for the initial publishing software including PageMaker, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, and even Ventura Publisher. This imaging model included support for continuously scalable text, vector, and raster imagery as well as the concepts of a current transformation matrix that allowed arbitrary scaling, rotation, etc. and multiple color spaces (grayscale, RGB, CMYK, spot, device independent, and color-managed).
    The PostScript imaging model was effectively replaced by the PDF imaging model, a significant superset of the PostScript imaging model, by the time Illustrator 9 and InDesign 2 were released in terms of support of ICC color management, transparency, etc.
    The fact is that a good graphic designed doesn't need to know anything about PostScript or PDF per sé, but rather about the basics of color (such as issues associated with color gamut and what how that affects display and printing), use of text versus vector versus raster images and why one should keep content at the highest level of abstraction all the way to the rendering (or screen) or RIP process for printing. Some knowledge of typography also helps.

  • I don't know the password for the SMTP account so as to mail photos.  How can I retrieve or change the password?

    I am unable to share photos from the Iphoto program because I don't know the password for the SMTP account.  How can I either retrieve or change that password?  Or is it one I already should know?

    Have you set the general preferences in iPhoto to email using iPhoto? Then change it to email using "Mail". This way iPhoto will use your regular Mail account.

  • How do I install lion on a MacBook pro if I don't know the password?

    I know what you're thinking, "if you don't know the password, it's probably not yours." I'm actually a go-to guy for pawn shops when they get electronics. The guy pawned his laptop and didn't pay to retrieve it. It is now property of the pawn shop but they initially forgot to ask the guy for the password and now he won't reveal it to us.
    I want to wipe the computer and install the latest os on it. Can you please tell me the simplest way? It automatically logs in when starting up and I'm able to download lion but I think it's going to ask me for a password. I could be wrong though.

    Did you get the Mac OS X install disks from the pawnshop, perchance? If not, you'll need to call Apple tech support and order a set, or if the MBP is an older one that didn't come with Snow Leopard, a retail copy of the Snow Leopard installer. Then you can boot from that installer disk, erase the drive (highly recommended), install SL and upgrade to Leopard. Or you can buy the Lion installer on a USB flash drive, boot from that, and again erase the drive and install.
    Regards.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple ID and iCloud email address don't need to be the same, you can't change an iCloud email address.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.
