No artwork on cd created from Library

I burned a cd from my existing Library. Each song had artwork associated. When I loaded the cd into a friends computer to print a cd cover there was no artwork. Any ideas?

If you burned the CD as an Audio CD then this should happen, this is because Audio CDs do not support artwork. If you burned it as an MP3 or Data CD then the artwork will be preserved if the artwork was embedded in the track(s).
The new "Get Album Art" command in iTunes 7 does not necessarily embed the artwork. Drag&Drop or Copy&Paste will embed the artwork.

Create shared library on external drive from scratch

I have seen many posts about creating shared iTunes libraries on external drives with many different configurations, but mostly with pre-existing libraries. My question is creating the library from scratch. The purpose is obviously to share songs among several computers AND only have one copy of a song as to not take up unnecessary disk space on several computers.
All of our songs are on an external USB hard-drive attached to Airport Xtreme. Every song is in album folder, and every album folder is in an artist folder (very organized). All the artist folders (with their album and then song contents) are in a root folder called "Songs" on the external hard-drive.
We have upgraded our three Macs (iMac, MBP and MacMini) to Leopard and deleted all iTunes folders on each local hard drive (there was nothing in them anyway). We now want to create ONE iTunes folder on the hard drive so that each computer can access it. What are the steps? Here is what I "think" I've learned here on the postings with my questions:
1) First I opened iTunes on my first, main computer (iMac) and went into "Preferences" to change the iTunes music folder to [Ext HD]:iTunes:iTunes Music. The option, "Copy to music folder..." is deselected. (This will also be done on the other computers).
2) Now what to do? I could just move all of my song artist folders with their album subfolders and music files inside them, into the "iTunes Music" folder. But then what do I click to get iTunes to see all the songs and put them in its database? The other option is click "Add to Library" - but then don't I have to select all the individual songs? (I actually tried the latter method and it kept crashing). Can I just move all the folders into [Ext HD}:iTunes:iTunes Music folder and click something to get it to create its database based on all the music files that are now in its subfolders?
3) Next step. I have seen many people write that they then create an "Alias" and put the Alias in their "Music" folder on their LOCAL, computer's hard drive. Could someone now explicitly, step-by-step, describe how this is done? I assume I go to the external hard drive. Am I creating an alias of the entire "iTunes" folder, or of the "iTunes Music" subfolder, or of the library file??? Please answer this specifically.
So now I have "XXX alias" that I copy to my local, computer's hard drive and put it on my desktop. I take out the "....alias" word, and drag it to my local "Music" folder. It asks me to replace the existing folder/file, and I say yes. Correct? And then I do this on all three computers, correct?
4) Finally, after I've done all of this, I still have the following functionality questions -
4a) When we now add to the library, either from a CD or online purchase, ONE copy of the music should go in the "iTunes Music" folder on the external drive, correct?
4b) This system means that all three computers MUST have the same iTunes library, playlists, etc, correct? The downside of this system is that you cannot personalize libraries for each computer and just share the actual music files, correct? (If so, is there another process [steps 1-4 above] that results in a more customizable system where *ONLY ONE COPY* of the actual song file is shared?)
Sorry for the length of the message, and the questions. Truly I have read all the postings but was unable to map out my plan before I go and creating, finally, this one set of music that we can share. In advance, thank you all for your help.

I was afraid you'd say that, because I'm a long time Mac guy and I don't have the perfect answer. Have you ever messed with remote desktop? That'd seem to give her full access and control, something I personally wouldn't do, although it may work for you.
Another thought came to me that might work: copy over the complete library to her machine, and then when you do another major shoot, create a new catalog, edit, etc.and then import as catalog to you main one while sending her the new one.
I am sure there are more elegant solutions, but these are a couple of ways.

I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

Many thanks.
That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Get the ID of a dynamically created symbol from library, INSIDE another symbol.

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get the id from a dynamic created symbol from library.
When dynamically creating the symbol directly on the stage (or composition level), there's no problem.
But I just can't get it to work when creating the symbol inside another symbol.
Below some examples using both "getChildSymbols()" and "aSymbolInstances"
// USING "getChildSymbols()" /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// ON THE STAGE
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item","Stage");
var symbolChildren = sym.getChildSymbols();
console.log(symbolChildren[0].getSymbolElement().attr('id')); // ok eid_1391853893203
// INSIDE ANOTHER SYMBOL
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item", sym.getSymbol("holder").getSymbolElement());
var symbolChildren = sym.getSymbol("holder").getChildSymbols(); // Am i using this wrong maybe?
console.log(symbolChildren.length) // returns 0 so can't get no ID either
// USING "aSymbolInstances"" //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// ON THE STAGE
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item","Stage");
console.log(sym.aSymbolInstances[0]); // ok (i guess) x.fn.x.init[1] 0: div#eid_1391854141436
// INSIDE ANOTHER SYMBOL
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item", sym.getSymbol("holder").getSymbolElement());
console.log(sym.getSymbol("holder").aSymbolInstances[0]); // Javascript error in event handler! Event Type = element
In this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/5691824 is written: "mySym.aSymbolInstances will give you an array with all "names" when you create symbols"
Could it be this only works on the stage/ composition level only and not inside a symbol?
The following methods to achieve the same are indeed possible, but i simply DON'T want to use them in this case:
1) Storing a reference of the created symbol in an array and call it later by index.
2) Giving the items an ID manually on creation and use document.getElementById() afterwards.
I can't believe this isn't possible. I am probably missing something here.
Forgive me I am a newbie using Adobe Edge!
I really hope someone can help me out here.
Anyway, thnx in advance people!
Kind Regards,
Lester.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response!
True this is also a possibility. But this method is almost the same of "Giving the items an ID manually on creation and use document.getElementById() afterwards".
In this way (correct me if i'm wrong) you have to give it an unique ID yourself. In a (very) big project this isn't the most practical way.
Although I know it is possible.
Now when Edge creates a symbol dynamically on the Stage (or composition level) or inside another symbol it always gives the symbol an ID like "eid_1391853893203".
I want to reuse this (unique) ID given by Edge after creation.
If created on the stage directly you can get this ID very easy. Like this;
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item","Stage");
var symbolChildren = sym.getChildSymbols();
console.log(symbolChildren[0].getSymbolElement().attr('id')); // ok eid_1391853893203
I want to do exactly the same when created INSIDE another symbol.
var m_item = sym.createChildSymbol("m_item", sym.getSymbol("holder").getSymbolElement());
Now how can I accomplish this? How can I get the Id of a dynamically created symbol INSIDE another symbol instead of created directly on the stage?
This is what i'm after.
Thnx in advance!

Html snippet not working; created from Taco html edit Component Library

Ok, I've searched for days on the discussion board for the answer to this one..... hopefully someone can give me a couple of pointers....
I have a component created from Taco html edit Component Library that I cannot get to work as an inserted snippet into iWeb 3.0.2.
Why can't I get this to work? I've seen first hand that they work on someone else's website that she constructs in html directly, not using iWeb. Any help greatly appreciated.
Taco created three files. They are:
TSWAccordion.css
TSWDomUtils.js
TSWAccordion.js
Here is the code:

You need to upload these three files in a folder to the root folder on your server:
TSWAccordion.css
TSWDomUtils.js
TSWAccordion.js
The folder cannot be named "Scripts" as shown in your code as you already have one of that name.
Say it is named "Accordion". You then need to give the absolute URL to these files rather than the relative one shown in the code....

IT GRC Process Pack _ Create Risks from Library

Hi Folks, so I'm trying to figure out if MSFT provides the a Risk Library - since when we create a Program and then attempt to "Create Risks from Library" the content is empty. I've gone through the process to import the MPs to provide various
Control Libraries - but I don't see where we can include anything for the Risks. If someone can point me in the right direction that would be ideal. Thanks!

How to add pdfs n movies from my PC without creating ne library

How to add pdfs n movies from my PC without creating ne library... Does iTune has ne converter tht can convert movie into format that iphone can play..

That's easy, while connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7.3 installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. If your iPod shows up ok in iTunes you can change it to manual from there.

Create new library from part of existing

I just starting using iPhoto and have created a library with all my photos of 2004-2005. I also have a large collection of old family photos I've been building up (from the 20's, 30's and 40's) and want to create a separate library just for this project.
How can I take old photos and create a new library then remove them from my current library?
I don't want to lose the keywords and comments that have been assigned to the photos thus far.
Thanks!!
Jim

Lori,
Thanks for your response. I get how to create and navigate multiple libraries. I'm just wondering if there are easy ways to move images between libraries and maintain all the meta data such as keywords, descriptions, dates, etc.
Trying to understand the dynamics to get my storage scheme in place. I can't keep everything on my laptop forever. Looking to establish a migratory path.
I shoot about 1500 pictures per year, 2500 on years where I've done the big Europe/Asia trips. So far I have one library with years 2004 and 2005 and starting to add 2006 as I go. About 3000 images. I have 1999-2003 that I am thinking about starting a new library with or adding to the current. Although at some point, I'll want to migrate older stuff to an external drive while keeping active stuff on the laptop.
Hence, can I move images from one library to another and keep keywords/comments, etc.
Thanks for your thoughts.

Create Replacement Library - Start from Scratch?

New user seeks guidance ... after reviewing forum threads and reading iPhoto6 instructional literature, it's obvious that I need to start my library over from scratch. (I am keenly aware that I can screw up the iPhoto software if I delete photos from behind the front door, so to speak).
All the photos are backed up on an external HD. I have only a 100 or so pictures now on my Mac MBP HD; some were imported through iPhoto 6.0.3 and some were just dragged directly into my home folder. So, while it's a small mess, it's an organizational mess nonetheless.
I want to start over and have every photo that makes it way to my MAC HD "enter" through iPhoto so that I don't have duplicates and is "tracked" by iPhoto. Can you suggest a safe procedure? And a second question, how should a picture be properly removed permanently from my system? Thanks, Jim F.

Jim:
Since you have all of your photos on an external HD and so very few on the boot drive, I suggest you assemble those on the boot drive into one or more folders. If they are in your current iPhoto library then the originals should be located in folder in the iPhoto Library/Originals folder. Each roll has a folder there.
Once you have all of the photos safely in folders outside of iPhoto go ahead and delete the iPhoto Library folder.
Now launch iPhoto and create a new library. Then drag each folder of photos into iPhoto to create a roll for that folder. lf you rename the outside folders before importing the new roll will have the same name as that folder.
That's essentially it. To delete a photo from iPhoto you need to drag it to iPhoto's trash icon in the Source pane. Then go to iPhoto->Empty Trash menu option and empty the trash. It's all done within iPhoto.
That being said let me describe an new option in iPhoto for creating a library that uses alias files for each of the source files and doesn't copy the full file into the library. This way you can have your source files located on an external drive and just a small alias based library on the boot drive. There are a couple of caveats to this system. If the external drive is not mounted the only the thumbnail view of the unedited images and the full sized view of any edited images can be seen. You can add comments, labels and keywords but not move any images or use any function that requires the full sized image, slideshows, books, calendars, etc. Also any photo deleted from the library is not deleted from the source files. They have to be deleted manually from the Finder.
Tutorial #2 describes how to convert over to an alias system. Since you're starting from scratch it will be much easier. Just create an alias based library. Assemble your image files in a predetermined location (boot drive or external). Name the folders containing the files so the roll title will be informative, and import. Just a though. Good luck.

I mostly work on Mac desktop, but use a Macbook Pro on trips. Due to limited HD space on the latter, I want to create a library of part of the images on the Mac, to be used on the Macbook. I do not however want to remove these images from the Mac library.

Choose one or more Projects, and then use Export as New Library (from File). The resulting export will be a fully functioning Aperture Library to either transfer and open on the Macbook Pro, or to Import into a library you already have on the MBP.

Hello cpikehfx,
Welcome to the forums.
You can try one of the two options below to work around your issue.
Drag and drop the files from the desired music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder using the computer.
Open the desired music folder on the computer
Go into Computer or My Computer and open the BlackBerry network drive
Open the Music folder
Drag the desired music files from the computer music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder
Try a different Windows profile.
Go into the Control Panel and create a new user account
Put some music files in a folder that is accessible by all profiles or transfer them to the BlackBerry device
Log out of the current profile and log into the new profile
Transfer music into iTunes or Windows Media Player
Launch BlackBerry Link and go through the setup configuring the music source of your choice
Click on the Computer name in the bottom left corner of Link
Select Music on the left side
Drag and drop the desired music files from the list to the BlackBerry name in the bottom left corner of Link
If neither of these options work for you then you will want to contact your mobile service provider and ask that this issues be escalate to BlackBerry support for investigation.
Hope this helps. Have a good day.

XML file created by Library- Export

In looking at the XML file created by Library->Export, there is a persistent ID for the library as a whole, and a persistent ID for each track. But there isn't a persistent ID for each CD. But it appears that there must be such an ID, because if you look at the filenames of the itc2 files, many of them use a persistent ID that doesn't exist in the XML file, which I assume is for the CD. Is there any way to find this persistent ID?

I suspect that iTunes uses some form of hashing algorithm to index into the Album Artwork folders. Looking at my library, the ratio of about 10:1 for library entries to artwork .itc objects suggests that only one image is used for each album and the fact that the same album name can be used by different artists in iTunes without causing problems suggests that both the album name & artist name are used in generating the hash key. The prevelance of empty folders suggests these are used within iTunes to mark items for which artwork hasn't been found online.
The Album Artwork folders are a cache created to help iTunes display artwork in it's various views without having to unpack the images from the tags or download them again from an online repositry. If you're worried the cache has out of date or corrupt data, just delete it all and let it be rebuilt as you use your library. If you want access to the images it contains use scripting to get direct access to the artwork objects of the files you are interested in.

Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

OK, so I'm clearly a newb. I thought if I asked a question, it would post, and now I'm being told to post a comment, so I'm asking the same question again. Sorry I sound like an idiot. I'm new to this apple/mac stuff.
Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

If you have added the ringtone file correctly to iTunes, it will appear under iTunes 'Tones' library.
If you don't find Tones library in iTunes, go to iTunes menu EDIT/PRFERENCES under GENERAL tab, check the Tones Box under Library source to display Tones library in iTunes.
iTunes accepts only m4r file as ringtone and has to be less than 40secs.

I have photos that are rotated within a photo stream created from a project even though the photo displays properly within the project. How can I get the photos to have the proper rotation within the photo stream?

I have a photo stream that was created from a subset of photo from a rather large Aperature project. Some of the photos show up rotated within the photo stream but are not rotated within the project. Why is this happening and how do I fix the rotation within the photo stream? I do have the latest version of Aperature and have all of the necessary updates applied to my devices used to view the photo stream. The photos do show up rotated within the photo stream segment of Aperature, so I am sure it is not an issue with the output device (iPad and Apple TV). I do know that I cannot edit photos within a photo stream, but no amount of editing within the project allows the photos to be properly rotated within the photo stream. All help would be greatly appreciated.

That will work, but it is the long way 'round.
As Frank noted, Book Albums are just specialized Albums. Albums can show any Image in your Library, regardless of where the Album is located on the Library Inspector, and regardless of which Project contains the Image. You can put your Albums anywhere (in a Folder called "Books" for example). You can put Images from anywhere in your Library in any Album.
The easy way 'round:
- Make a new Book Album
- Select Images you may want to put in your Book. Flag them.
- Select some more. Flag them.
- Go to the "Flagged" container (listed near the top of the Library Inspector), select all, and drag-and-drop them to your Book Album.
- Repeat as needed, or just drag-and-drop directly into the Book Album.
Note that you can remove any Image from any Album (including Books) by selecting and hitting the "{Delete}" key. This _does not remove the Image from the Project that contains it, or from the Library.
Note, too, that once the Images are in your Book Album, you then put them in the Book you are creating for publication. The Book Album contains the superset of Images with which you populate the Book itself. The Book Album also holds the Book.
A good (imho ) introduction to the parts of Aperture can be found in this short guide I wrote.
The User Manual is helpful. Here is
the chapter on making Books.
From that chapter, here is
the section detailing how to create and populate a Book Album.
