Official directory structure for itunes 8 in OSX

I have had so many different locations for my itunes libraries over the years and I would like place the on a time capsule drive now. What is the default directory structure for itunes8? Are movies, podcasts, tv shows all in the same directory?

HD>Users>Your Account>Music>iTunes>iTunes Music - this is the default for iTunes.
The iTunes folder contains the data base file, .xml, genius, art work etc - the iTunes Music contains all your music in folders arranged by artist then album. Note that this is true as long as you have the iTunes prefs>Advanced - the 'keep' and 'copy' options are enabled.

  • Is there a suggested directory structure for iTunes?

    Is there a suggested directory structure for iTunes? I have moved my library around several times (what with new machines, etc.) and I find that I have two app libraries in different locations and I think it is the problem behind a refusal to sync issue I'm having with my iPad.
    Any help would be gladly appreciated!

    (Screen grabs a great help)

    I'll see your Tb and raise you some - the truth is, almost every major revision and data migration from MBP to MBP and now back to a MP has caused replication of folders in the strangest of places, none of which I have consciously created - I mean, why would anyone except out of self-focused spite want to create three different sets of apps folders - to say nothing of the interminable Compilations folders that sprout from no where in particular!
    I could understand the issue if I was careless or a complete neophyte,  I only moved to the Apple platform about 6 years ago, (even though I've been using the platform since 1987) when I went to work for the company.
    iTunes I think is a little like a cat - it recognises my lingering, subyle antipathy and rolls all over me just to mess with my head!
    Thanks for the information, none-the-less, greatly appreciated.

  • Directory structure for servlets and webservices in one application

    hi,
    Can any one help me for creating servlets and webservices in one
    application and deploying in Jboss 4.2.0.
    I want to know exactly what is the directory structure for creating this
    application and what are the additional .xml files for deploying this application.
    if any one know this answere please tell the answere.

    I figured out a solution - it's a problem of policies. In detail: Server1's codebase entry (file:) refers to the class directory of Server1's project. In the simple case of only Client1, which has no codebase entry, it works fine without a file permission on the side of Server1. In the complex case of Client1+Server2, which has to have a codebase entry (file:) refering to the class directory of the Server2's project on a separate machine, for exactly the same method call from Client1 to Server1 a file permission entry on the side of Server1 is needed for Server1's class directory. But WHY ???
    It seems to be a little confusing with the codebase entries, many of the posts are contrary to others and to my personal experiences. Some comments given by Adrian Colley throw a little light upon some aspects. Is there anybody, who can explain the whole topic, when, why, and which part of RMI application deals with codebase entries, also in case of not dynamic code downloading ? May be there is also a reference into the java docs, which I didn't found up to now.
    Thanks in advance

  • What should be directory structure for Custom MDS files?

    Hi,
    I have personalize a page and then exported the personalization.
    Now my requirment is to migrate this personalization to other server, for which clients want steps specific to UNIX.
    My doubt is where should I copy these files on the server to import the personalization using XMLImporter command? ( Client do not have JDev on his server, so can not use impot command)
    my custom_top structure is like '/u02/int/applmgr/CUSTOM/xbol/11.5.0'
    The customization is part of product 'OTA'
    I am confused about where to put(Directory structure on custom top) customization and other MDS file to import using XMLImport.
    This customization is also using a Custom LOV for which, I have given the path xbol/oracle/apps/ota/admin/enrollment/webui/XbolGradeRN.
    For now I have transfered the file from window based JDeveloper and things are working fine. I need the UNIX directory structure for MDS files.
    Please help to clear my this doubt.
    Regards,
    Adarsh

    There is nothing specific to UNIX since the files are never picked from the file system on a production instance. You can place them under a temp directory with the proper package structure, the same way you exported personalizations for the seeded pages and the same custom package structure for your new pages and run import command. It's only how you run your import command matters, if you have placed the files in the proper package under some temp directory just give the -rootdir to point to your temp directory and no -rootPackage option.

  • Directory Structure for Discoverer

  • An EFFECTIVE development directory structure for J2EE platform?

    Hi, here we r talking about deployment environment more than development
    environment. Have u ever think about designing an EFFECTIVE development
    directory structure for J2EE platform( e.g. weblogic )? u r not using the
    deployment directories for coding, r u? :)
    I used to construct a dir structure for dev and want to improve it.
    d:/wholesystem/*.prj // Project files
    ...../module1/src/com/.... // Module source files
    ...../module1/doc/... // Module doc files
    ...../module1/classes/... // Module class files
    ...../module2/...
    ...../web/*.jsp // web page files
    ...../web/images/... // web page images
    ...../web/WEB-INF/... //...
    Do u have any good ideas? Thanks!

    Create a web-inf folder at the same level of src and
    jsp folder inside src
    i mean
    /build.xml
    /src/
    /src/java/<package>/...../*.java
    /src/demo/<package/...../*.java
    /src/test/<package>/....../*.java
    /src/jsp
    /web-infSo, would you put in /src/jsp only the *.jsp?
    And what in /WEB-INF ? What woud you put there? Would you do something like:
    /WEB-INF/web.xml
    /WEB-INF/src/<package>/..../<my_servlets_and_j2ee_stuff>.java
    /WEB-INF/classes/<package>/..../<my_servlets_and_j2ee_stuff>.java
    In this manner sources and classes are in the same tree, it does not seem very clean to me, expecially if you consider that probably I must have a "test" directory to unit test some j2ee stuff (as for the j2se stuff in "src"): how would you do that?
    Is this directory structure anyway what you meant or not?

  • What is the default iTune Folder Structure for iTunes 10?

    What is the default iTune Folder Structure for iTunes 10? As far as I can tell in windows 7 it goes something like.
    My Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music
    Other folders for downloads, pod casts, mobile applications are all in the iTunes Media folder, however the iTunes library database files are located in the iTunes Folder.
    The reason I ask is that I am re-doing my music collection and I set up the folder structure mentioned above, but iTunes re-arranded everything and copied all of my music into the iTunes Media folder.
    Anyone have any idea how iTunes does it by default?

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    If you have upgraded from version 8 (or earlier) to iTunes 9 (or later) at some point, then your media folder (everything inside the red outline) may still be called iTunes Music instead of iTunes Media. The extra Music folder inside the media folder is used if you have allowed iTunes to Upgrade to iTunes Media Organization (iTunes 9) or used File > Library > Organize Library > Reorganize files in the folder "<Media Folder>" (iTunes 10). Depending on your choices for Keep iTunes Media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library plus a little bug in which one build changed the name of the file storing the choice of layout it is quite easy for some of your files to be organized according to one layout and some the other.
    Assuming you're happy letting iTunes organize your files the following steps should tidy things up (should it be necessary):
    1. Select File > Library > Organize Library... > Tick Reorganize files in the folder "<Media Folder>" and click OK. Skip if this option is greyed out (already upgraded) or you prefer the older layout.
    2. Select File > Library > Organize Library... > Tick Consolidate files and click OK. This will bring any files currently organised outside the designated media folder into it.   NB This will create duplicate copies of any file that needs to be consolidated, and you will need to manually clean up afterwards. If space is at a premium try my scripts Unconsolidated to find out what would need moving and ConsolidatebyMoving to move rather than copy it.
    3. Select Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab, uncheck Keep iTunes Media folder organized and click OK.
    4. Select Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab, check Keep iTunes Media folder organized and click OK. This triggers iTunes into reorganizing everything according to your preferences.
    5. (Optional) Close iTunes, rename the folder iTunes Music as iTunes Media then restart iTunes. Check under Edit > Preferences > Advanced tab that the location has automatically updated. If you can't access the media for any reason just undo the folder rename.
    6. (Optional - Windows only) If Windows Media Player has ever had access to your files it may have liberally scattered folder artwork files about which iTunes won't tidy up when it reorganizes things, thus leaving behind a heap of folders with artwork and no media. I've written a script for cleaning this mess up called CleanDeadArt.
    PS If you really prefer the older layout, but it is already in the new one then edit the file called .iTunes Preferences.plist in your media folder and change the integer from 1 to 0 before doing step 3.

  • What is the folder structure for iTunes for Ver. 11.0.5

    What is the folder structure for iTunes for Ver. 11.0.5 since I have iTunes on an external drive at the moment but want to move it back to the HD temporary so as to back it up to TM, the problem is that it seems that the files are some what disarranged and I'm not sure where and how iTune reads them.

    Time Machine will back up connected external drives as long as they are not on the exclude list.
    Connect the drive with your iTunes library > System Preferences > Time Machine > Options > if the external drive with the iTunes library is listed, select it and click the minus sign then run the Time Machine backup

  • Changing file name and directory structure for use outside of iPhoto

    Hi,
    I was wondering if its possible to get iPhoto to name the files from my library to reflect the names that I've given the files in iPhoto. I'm thinking along the lines of iTunes, where its possible to chose in the preferences how the files are named, and there is some logical directory structure, such as "Artist/Album/01 - Track 1.mp3". These file names are updated to reflect any changes made in iTunes.
    I've heard the argument that I shouldn't ever want to do anything with the files themselves because iPhoto can do everything I would ever want to do, but I want to organize the files so that not all of my organizational work is lost if I decide to stop using iPhoto and transition to a different system. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Adrian

    Adrian
    No it's not possible.
    You can rename the files before bringing them into iPhoto, you can rename them with the titles on Export (Use the File -> Export command, it gives you the option to use the title and filename) but when it's inside iPhoto you cannot rename the files.
    However, all is not entirely lost. Using Film Rolls (View -> Film Rolls) you can move pics between rolls, name rolls, create rolls and so on, as long as you do this in the iPhoto Window, and these changes will be reflected in the iPhoto Library Folder.
    If at some point you decide to chuck iPhoto then (if the new app won't read iPhoto database files) you can simply export each album you've created to a Folder (using the File -> Export command as I suggest above), this, along with exporting slideshows will preserve your organisational efforts.
    The iTunes database has a rather simple job to do: track a file and it's assorted metadata. iPhoto, on the other hand, tracks a file and it's assorted metadata, plus a Modified version, plus a thumbnail. If you consider what happens when you edit a pic, for instance - Copy Original, perform edit, save modified version, remove Original Thumbnail and then create new one - you can see it's a rather more complex job.
    Finally, the standard warning: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss. Any changes you make must be made in the iPhoto Window.
    Need more info? by all means post again.

  • Directory Structure for multiple applications at one host

    Can I have multiple (more than one) WEB-INF directory structures in the public_html directory for different web applications? If I do this, how do setup the url-pattern in the Servlet Mapping tag in the web.xml file? How do I setup the URL that calls the servlet from the HTML that has been send to the user�s browser?

    If I understand your question, you want multiple contexts. All App Servers/Web Servers allow you to setup multiple contexts. Normally if your root context is in /home/myhome/app_server/
    then you would setup multiple contexts by creating a folder for each context:
    /home/myhome/app_server/context1/
    /home/myhome/app_server/context2/
    Each would have their own full application/website. And the way to reference these would be as such:
    if the domain, www.mydomain.com, is mapped to /home/myhome/app_server/
    www.mydomain.com/context1/
    www.mydomain.com/context2/
    I think that is what you were asking. Hope it helps

  • Directory structure for  ABAP+JAVA Dialog Instance

    Hello,
    Can any one clarify how will be the directory structure in a case where we have ABAP+Java System?
    For Central Instance,DVEBMGS<instance no>
    Central Services,SCS<instance no+1>
    Ex:DVEBMGS20
    SCS21
    If I have another dialog instance,can I have only ABAP or only Java in that?What will be the directory structure?But I read that they will be in 1:1 ratio
    Will it be D22(Only ABAP) or J22(Java only).
    As a dialog instance,can ABAP exist with out JAVA.
    or can JAVA exist without ABAP
    Please explain the directory structure with an example.

  • Directory structure for a J2SE+J2EE project: suggestions are very welcome

    Hi, I have to start coding and organizing the CVS tree of an already mature project which is J2SE. This J2SE project can be described as a "core engine" for something else, and is a quite large project, and up to now has only a command line User Interface. I organized the dir structure as this:
    /build.xml
    /src/
    /src/java/<package>/...../*.java
    /src/demo/<package/...../*.java
    /src/test/<package>/....../*.java
    when I ant compile, all the .classes will be done in the "build" directory (reflecting the structure in the "src" dir):
    /build/
    /build/java/<package>/....../*.class
    /build/demo/<package/...../*.class
    /build/test/<package>/..../*.class
    I am happy with this, but now comes the issue: a web interface to use this core engine (it will have the same package namespace) is in developing progess, so I have to put somewhere the *.jsp, the WEB-INF dir with web.xml and servlet sources: how would you do this? And where would you let Ant put the compiled servlet classes?
    I can modify the previous directory structure to accomodate the J2EE part, this is really not a problem!
    Thanks to who can suggest me a clean solution

  • Directory structure for the new Data Services Project

    1) I do as prescribed in the manual "Building and deploying
    Flex 2 Applications", page 325
    "To create a web application make a copy of the /flex
    directory and its contents. Rename the copy and store it in the
    same location under /servers/default directory."
    ("flex" is an empty Flex Data Services application that
    serves as a template for creating your custom application)
    2) I create a corresponding project from Flex Builder 2 :
    Project type: Flex Data Services
    Root folder: C:\fds2\jrun4\servers\default\MyDS
    Root URL:
    http://localhost:8700/default/MyDS
    Project name: MyDS
    Project contents: C:\fds2\jrun4\servers\default\MyDS
    2) I build the project
    Immediately after "build project" the directory structure at
    C:\fds2\jrun4\servers\default\MyDS becomes the following:
    .settings
    bin
    ----------------META-INF
    ----------------WEB-INF
    ---------------- --------------- classes

    Notice that bin directory now contains another pair of
    META-INF and WEB-INF in addition to those already existing in the
    template project "flex".
    Can anybody comment on this directory structure?
    Which META-INF and WEB-INF are supposed to be used for
    configuration?
    What is the purpose of having two pairs of META-INF and
    WEB-INF in the same web app?

    Hello -
    first, those folders are necessary in deployment - You need
    only the contents of the bin folder for deployment, not the
    sources. Since you're compiling the application locally in FB2 it
    places all of the supporting and necessary files into one location
    namely the "bin" folder. You'd deploy the "bin" folder's contents
    to the FDS server, perhaps another FDS server that is not your
    "development" server -- like a production server. The data and
    configuration information that your app needs for FDS services are
    stored in the WEB-INF and META-INF folders so these need to travel
    with the final product. On the production server you'd just cop the
    "bin" folder and it's contents to the /servers/default folder -
    where you could then rename your bin folder to "MyDS"

  • Guidelines regarding directory structure for multiple Oracle homes on Unix!

    Hi All,
    Are there any guidelines published regarding directory structures that should be defined while using multiple Oracle homes on Unix/Linux box?
    I am looking for guidelines regarding admin and oradata folders so that we dont accidentally mess up with the DB contents with a wrong Oracle home.
    Its a development server with 8i and 10g. 11g might also get loaded on the same server in future.
    Thanks in advance...
    Regards

    Thanks Maran.
    I have already checked many installation guides before posting here. All of them mention about creating folders like /admin or /oradata on various mount points but none of the naming conventions really indicate whether it is a 8i database or a 10g database.
    This is required when you are having multiple Oracle installations under /opt and databases are running from different mount points.
