Novice: How do you manually "move" one file above another file

Hi,
Sorry if this a FAQ, I'm an iTunes novice.
I have a series of MP3s that need to stay/be played in sequence. Changing/renaming them will be a royal pain.
The filenames are numeric, e.g.:
1009x09
1009x10
1011x11
The problem I have as I'm "Importing" them from the original MP3 CDs is that the file named "1010x10" keeps getting appended to the bottom of the list, rather than staying in sequence. This (so far) is the only file this is happening to.
How can I "force it/move it" to stay in sequence?
Thanks,
Mike

First, put them in a playlist.
Make sure there is a little triangle in the space at the top of the number column. If not, click that spot to get the triangle.
Now just grab any track you want and move it (by click and drag) up or down to where you want.

How do you copy from one itouch to another

We have three itouches for the kids. the oldest two have purchased songs, games etc. separately on each device. The newest itouch had nothing on it and is brand new. I believe that every application that we want on this third device has to be paid for separately. That is, even though one of the kids has an application on his itouch if the other kid wants the same application I have to buy it all over again for that device.
Someone at work told me that this is not necessarily the case because more than one device can share an itunes account. However, I have a couple of ipods we used to use (the cheaper ones without a screen) that we used to use. But when we tried to download songs from one device to the other you had to copy the whole hard drive from one device to the other. So anything you had on your device to start with would be completely overwritten and you'd loose whatever you had on the device just to get a song from the other device.
Is there any way you can avoid having to buy the same application for each itouch you have in a family? It would seem that there would be some sort of discount program or family license for stuff you downloaded. I understand that to do that would be less $$s in Apple's pocket but it seems that it doesn't make sense to have multiple devices in a family. Since the game everyone wants to play is on one itouch then the other ones are just sitting collecting dust. It's like haveing 3 TVs in the house but only one cable box. I wonder if Apple would make more $$s by giving away the itouch and just have everyone download apps like crazy. Sort of the same model as Razors - they give you the razor for free but you pay throught the nose for blades for the rest of your life.
Just wondering if there was a way to make the purchase of these Itouches worth while. We're sort of kicking ourselves for letting the kids each get their own itouch. Would have been much cheaper to just get one device and let them each buy applications with their gift cards. They fight over the itouch that has the most desireable game. Seems like the marketing of the whole itunes thing was not all that well thought out, at least not not for families with kids.
Thanks.

You really are not getting this.
"I guess I am still completely shocked that as a parent we can't download something for everyone to use."
Why do you continue to think this although we keep telling you that this is not the case.
You do NOT have to purchase anything twice. You can share the music with as many ipods as you like in your household.
The ipods are designed to sync with your computer regularly. You should have been syncing these other ipods with your computer all along, thus transferring the purchases to your computer where that music can be synced to as many ipods as you like.
Take on of the ipods with the music in it. Open itunes on your computer. Plug in the ipod. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer the purchases from the ipod to the computer. Make sure that you have authorized your account on the computer: here are directions for that. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Unplug the ipod.
Plug in the other ipod with purchased music. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer purchases from the ipod to the computer.
You can now plug in any of the ipods, select what you want to sync and sync.
Have a look at the manual for the ipod. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

How do you convert mov to wav files?

How do you convert .mov files to .wav files in iMovie 10? I can no longer find the Share/Quicktime/Options tabs.

* the .mov container can be handled by any PC with a free download of Quicktime for Windows; but many PC users hesitate doing so, because on the Apple website it looks like you instali iTunes too... many PC don't like that...
* .mp4 can be handled by any actual PC mediaplayer... again: PC users are used to import .wmv (or the very old .avi container/not supported by YouTube)
* for exporting .wmv on a Mac, you need to buy a licence at www.flip4mac.com
* mpeg... the MotionPictureExpertGroup published many codecs... mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg4, h261, h264. .... but using iM as exporter, all these mpegs will be "hidden" in the QT container .mov... with QTpro you can strip-off the container, but I recommed the beginner to use one of the above mentioned options......

How do you make movies sent to you tube accessible to mobile devices

How do you make movies that are sent to you tube accessible to mobile devices

hey there,
Do you mean that you want to play some youtube videos on your mobile devices? If so, that would be really easy.
As to most of the codec problem, a video converter can move away your troubles. And since almost of the current video converters can support all video format file input, you can use it in most codec cases.
tips for you, most of the mobile devices support .mp4 best. In this case, if your device's name isn't in the output format list, you can just choose the output format as MPEG-4.
here's the guide of the one i used to use, wish that can help you. Good luck~

How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?

Like the subject line says: How do you manually manage podcasts with the new iTunes?
With the previous version of iTunes, when I plugged in my iPod, I could select the iPod, select podcasts, and manually delete episodes. With the new iTunes, I can't select individual episodes when looking at my iPod through iTunes. Is my only option to Sync? If so, why is that my only option?
This question probably has a simple answer, and I'm just not seeing it.

Rock,
I think I figured out a way to do what you want to do - which is the same way that I use Itunes with my Ipod. (My Itunes libary was destroyed last year so I can no longer auto synch my Ipod as I would lose thousands of songs).
Funnily enough, I discovered this new way of manually moving podcasts while trying to figure out what cpragman was trying to say (I never could - he must be smarter than me, as I couldn't get his method to work).
1. Open up your Itunes in your regular Library view. Choose Pocasts from the left hand side (either in the sidebar if you have that enabled, or from the little "radio" icon if you don't.)
2. Mouse to the podcast you want to place on your Ipod.
3. Right-click it. A long menu will pop up.
4. Move to the "Add to Playlist" option. As you hover, all your playlists will be visible. But at the very top will be the name of your Ipod itself (whatever you named it originally). Choose THAT name, and voila! That podcast will now copy to your Ipod and be easily available when you disconnect.
A nice feature of this method is that you can shift-click several podcasts at once and do the same thing, and all your selected podcasts will copy over (if you're like me and update your Ipod only every few weeks).
Hope this helps - let me know if it works for you!

How do you purge/compress/shrink the iPhoto11 folder/file size?

How do you purge/compress/shrink the iPhoto11 folder/file size?
I have been using iPhoto since iLife'05 and have always upgraded with each iteration of iLife. Without exception, I had just recently upgraded to iPhoto'11 when iLife'11 came out. Because I have used iPhoto to store all my photos and videos taken over the last 5 years or so, my iPhoto folder/file has become bigger and bigger over time and so I moved it to an external hard-drive. My main iPhoto'11 folder/file has 14,367 photos, 995 videos and is indicated to be 83 GB by iPhoto'11. But "Get Info" in Finder reports a whopping 130 GB.
I started to think that this is getting a little crazy and I had wanted to better manage my photo collection, so I decided to "divide and conquer" this gigantic iPhoto'11 folder/file into several smaller, more manageable sized ones. So I made a duplicate copy of this gigantic iPhoto'11 folder/file onto another external hard-drive, fire-up iPhoto'11 again to delete away almost 80% of the photos and 90% of the videos. Now, my "slimmed-down" iPhoto folder/file has 3,000 photos, 75 videos and is indicated to be 6.8 GB by iPhoto'11. But despite the new "slimmed-down" status, the "Get Info" in Finder reports a still very huge 44 GB. Where did all those bulk come from? I have emptied both the iPhoto'11 Trash Can and Mac OS X Trash Can and these steps did not seemed to change anything at all.
Therefore, I wanted to see what the "Get Info" in Finder will report if I were to delete 99.99% of the photos and video to leave just one (1) photo in iPhoto'11? Guess what is the result? My "One Photo experimental" iPhoto folder/file has 1 photo, 0 videos and is indicated to be 2 MB by iPhoto'11 yet the "Get Info" in Finder reports a mysterious 36.3 GB. There must be something hiding inside!
Help! What can I do?

I went on to try trashing away some of the folders and files inside and found that I could actually do it quite neatly if I go by the year which the photos are taken. After a lot of trial and error working on duplicate copy of my iPhoto '11 library, I am able to do away with all the clutter within the library and still open it normally.
Now my 44GB obese iPhoto'11 library has been slimmed down to just a little over 7 GB (5 GB as reported by iPhoto'11) and I am just comfortable dealing with 2 GB of "don't-know-what-info" of clutter within the library.
Remember my "One Photo Experimental" iPhoto'11 library that was 36.3 GB? I managed to bring it down to the realistic 22 MB size. This size is still double that of a brand new iPhoto'11 library I created to import 1 photo. However, it sure beat having 36.3 GB of clutter.
So, now what I am gonna do is to "divide and conquer" the duplicate copies of my iPhoto'11 library into smaller sized ones according to their year. But I think I'll still keep the original bloated, gigantic 130 GB intact and continue to feed it with photos and videos until maybe it becomes 1 TB! Yikes!
Anyway, million thanks for your tip and I really appreciate it! Have a Happy holidays!

How do you send movies back to iCloud

How do you send movies back to iCloud after watching them

Movies are not stored in your personal iCloud account.
Delete the file from the device (it will still be available for download again).

How do you load movies onto ipod

How do you pu movies fom your home onto your ipod?????

You need to find an appropriate app for the format that the database needs. That app will likely use the File Sharing method of syncing to the iPod.

How do you share movies with another account?

My wife and I have separate iTunes accounts, and she wants to be able to see the videos I buy and vice versa. How do you share movies and t.v. shows through home sharing?

One of you creates/owns the calendar on iCloud.com and then they can click the sharing icon (tilted wi-fi circle) and choose "private" put the other person's appleID email address and give View & Edit capability. Then you should be able to Join the calendar and both make edits/updates to it.
