PDF Organization, Library?

Hello,
I have a collection of pdfs downloaded from the USPTO, specifically the Chapters from the MPEP, including a TOC pdf. It appears that the pdfs are linked, in the TOC document, there is a search link that opens up the full Acrobat search, from which all chapters in the MPEP (the collection of pdfs) can be searched. It is proving to be a great tool but I have no idea how it works, I am primarily concerned with not damaging it when I edit the individual chapters using Pro. If anyone could direct me to where I can read up on the organization or send me a note on the organization that would be great. Thanks
Further, unaware of the linkage I removed one chapter from the collection and added back another version of the same chapter which I had annotated, this chapter / pdf -the added one- is also searched when the link in the TOC is used to search.
Best,

One of the problems is the search algorithm used in the Windows search. I had searched for a file for about a year and until I found the issue with the MS search it had missed me. The search will search inside a file for only a given set of specific file types (all MS files). Other files can only be searched by name, not content. There is a flag for this in the registry. The post at http://weblogs.asp.net/owscott/archive/2008/04/04/enabling-xp-and-windows-server-2003-to-s earch-all-files-types.aspx indicates one solution.
I think this is the process that you are referring to. If not, I am sorry. It is just that MS does not tell you that they do not search the content of ALL files, only the ones they have in a list (i.e., all MS files).

I am able to checkmark the first box but It won't allow me to check mark the second box, why? How can i fix this? Please help!

Well you must have made a mistake somewhere. The last instruction of step four reads:
When you've found your iTunes library folder, drag that folder to your external hard drive. This will begin the iTunes backup. The amount of time the backup will take depends on the size of your library. When the transfer is done, your backup is complete and your external hard drive can be disconnected.
Normally dragging content from to a new location on a different drive will result in a copy action which is what you were supposed to do. At a guess you somehow managed to move the iTunes folder. Then when you started iTunes it created a new blank library for you assuming it had just been installed rather that raising a warning.
Close iTunes. Rename the iTunes folder on the internal drive as iTunes (Empty) then copy the iTunes folder from the external back into the User's Music folder. Start iTunes. All should be well.
When you've made sure it all works please read my User Tip and use that method to backup in future. Since you already have a folder with the backup in place you can skip the "Make New" operation in the fourth step and simply choose the external folder.

When doing a second "Organize Library" cuz the first was too big, will iTunes recognize what's already copied over?

I'm stuck with a large folder of music on my PC in My Music folder. And I used "Organize Library" in iTunes but it didn't copy everything over because the amount of music was too big. I've deleted the original copies of music outside of iTunes to open up more space and was wondering if I do a second "Organize Library" if it will recognize that some of the music has already been copied over.

I don't know what "restore the iPod" is
It's usually the second thing to do (after Reset) when the iPod is not working correctly.
Select the iPod in iTunes and click Restore.
See this -> Restoring iPod to factory settings
what about my main question? Can I go back to "sync all" but manually block certain albums?
No because sync all is just that.
Sycning specific playlists should work fine. And you can create more than one and sync which ones you want.

Where is the file button on itunes, i am trying to do this File LIbrary Organize Library Consolidate Files

I cannot find the file button to do this for the old ipod library and new library to work togetherFile > LIbrary > Organize Library > Consolidate Files

Help! Can't save to disc/backup my iTunes! NO OPTION to save OR back up to disc my iTunes Library appears in the toolbar when I select 'File', then 'Library'. Just 'Organize Library...', 'Export Library...', 'Import Playlist...', and 'Export Playlist...'

Help! I can't save to disc OR backup my iTunes Library! iTunes support instructions are to simply select 'File', then 'Library', then select 'Back Up to Disc', but when I try to the only options that appear are 'Organize Library...', 'Export Library...' then below those are 'Import Playlist...' and 'Export Playlist...' (which appears in the list, but I cannot select). No option to save my library appears at all. Just those four. I've had no problems syncing, playing, adding or purchasing with my account and my iTunes version is up to date. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and what I should do so I can save my library?

How to get the Bookmarks in pdf file by using pdf.js library

In my application i am using PDF.js library to view the pdf files. Now i want to fetch the bookmark details which was already set in the pdf page. How could i get the those bookmark details by using pdf.js library. is there any specific methods available in pdf.js library to get that?

Hi ShantamReddy,
I asked #pdfjs and we would need you to clarify what you mean by "bookmark"
This is where the bookmarks in a pdf are populated [https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/web/viewer.js#L1032] however you will have to customize what to do with them.
I hope this sheds some light on what you are trying to do.

HT1449 Is there a way to "Organize Library" and *move* the files, rather than *copy* them?

I was trying to move my iTunes Library from the old iTunes Music folder to a new-style iTunes Media folder.
The Organize Library command wants to copy my 219 GB library. Is there any way to do the same thing but move the files instead? There's no way I'm going to be able to free enough space to make a copy of my whole library, and I would really rather not move the whole thing to an external drive, just to move it all back to the proper folder on my internal drive.

Let's recap.
Your iTunes media library is in an old school layout, library in the usual location of <User>/Music/iTunes containing a media folder called iTunes Music. You have updated the iTunes preference for the media folder to <User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media but, as expected, most if not all your media is still on the old path. And you want to rearrange your library to the current layout.
Correct? If so then the following steps will sort out your library:
Change the media folder preference back to <User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. Close & then reopen iTunes.
Use File (iTunes?) > Library > Organize Library > Rearrange files in the folder "iTunes Music" to get iTunes using the new internal structure for the media folder. Ignore if this option is grayed out, you've already done it.
(Sorry, I'm a PC user so a bit hazy on precise layout of Mac menus)
Use File (iTunes?) > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate files to pull in copies of any files that made it into the iTunes Media folder or are scattered elsewhere.
Delete the now redundant folder iTunes Media.
Close iTunes, rename iTunes Music as iTunes Media, start iTunes, check under iTunes > Preferences > Advanced that the media folder preference has automatically updated to .../iTunes Media, correct if required.
(Optional). Close iTunes, rename the library file iTunes Library as iTunes Library.itl then click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down option. When prompted to choose or create a library click choose and browse to the renamed file.
I could have suggested using Doug's script Re-locate Selected but the process above is much more efficient. You could use this however at step 3 to avoid the temporary duplication of the files from iTunes Media or housekeeping for any other files stored ourside of the iTunes Music folder.

File Library Organize Library Reorganize files Now can't locate music. How do I get my music back in the playlists. Still all in folders in music file?? HELP!

I recently downloaded iTunes 10, found my library and things looked great..........UNTIL.....I clicked on the reorganize files box in the 'Organize Library' window. Now all my music has a little ! next to it and says it cannot locate the song. I have all the music still in the folders but iTunes not being able to locate it. How do I get everything back the way it was??

if I set up another library, will that affect my ipod?
You will be given the chance to sync that iPod when it is connected if the iPod is set to sync automatically; if you choose that option, the music will be erased from the iPod. If not, you can transfer purchased content from the iPod and add additional music to it. Click here for more information.
If I set up another library, do I go to that one when using my ipod.
Yes.

Is Outside In's PDF Export library's function EXOpenExport thread-safe?

I'm writing a C++ wrapper, for Node.js, around the Outside In PDF Export library, on Ubuntu Linux. Node.js has a single threaded event loop and therefor any long-running processing is done on a worker thread. So, my wrapper is calling all of the PDF Export methods inside of this worker thread. I mention this so that you can be sure of two things: this is a threaded environment, and all PDF Export functions are being called on the same worker thread. Also, I am not making use of any redirected IO or PDF Export-handled threading. I've initialized the library specifying to use no threads. So all of this processing should be occuring within the thread that I call the functions on.
Everything seems to go fine when exporting a single PDF or even maybe two or three in quick succession. When I up the number of PDFs that I try to export to 5+, I receive a SIGSEGV segementation fault from within the OIT libs. The back trace is below:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I'll explain the back trace a little. The function on #11 is the function inside my code. That is the function in which I call all of the OIT lib functions. The functions on lines #12 and higher are the Node.js-related threading functions, setting up the thread to run my code's function. Functions on lines #10 down to #1 are all the OIT-called functions.
In the documentation for PDF Export, it says that if you're going to be using this library inside a threaded environment, then you need to call the init and deinit functions each time within the worker thread. I'm doing this in my code, which you can see here: https://github.com/ryancole/topdf/blob/master/src/topdf.cc#L29-L74
Is there anything else that I need to be setting that would cause this? I'm only specifying the font directory, explicitly. Are these libraries actually thread-safe? It doesn't look like they are.

Well, upon receiving a second opinion on the meaning of the phrasing in the documentation, I have got the library working in a threaded environment now. The first parameter to DEInitEx was supposed to specify to enable PTHREAD support, which I did not have. I thought that it meant something other than it actually does.

.PDF organization

Hello all!
I am going paperless with my life. Included in my library will be MS documents (Word/excel/Power P/Etc) and scanned in documents. PDF files are great, because they are the scanner standard! I recently learned how to use MS File Tags to let my Windows Vista find documents.
For instance, need a copy of your 2007 Income taxes? Click search, and type in
tag: 2007 tax
This will bring up microsoft and .PDF files with the file tags (keywords for PDF) that include "2007" and "tax"
Now the problem:
Windows explorer (in Vista) can display a "Tags" column in the Details view. Microsoft Office documents show the file tags, while PDF do not. Explorer can search only the PDF Keywords Metatag, but will not display it nor any other metatags in explorer. I know many of you know this, as I have searched on this alot...
Why does the Keywords metatag seem to be the only one searchable? Can I create a unique metatag that will be fully read by explorer?
Adobe specific (like Organizer) and thrid party apps are not a good solution for this, as my database needs to be portable.
Thanks

One of the problems is the search algorithm used in the Windows search. I had searched for a file for about a year and until I found the issue with the MS search it had missed me.

DPS Folio producer / Organizer: library filters

Hello,
It would be great to be able to fill the "library filter" with several items in Folio Producer.
Thanks.

Thank you for your replies.
It does list all of the articles, yes. Just no thumbnails.
We didn't export anything to PDF - they are all still indesign files...why would it have changed to PDF? Will the issue still work when submitting it to apple, if you can't see the thumbnails in the DPS folio producer organizer?

After "Organize Library" 1/2 are Unknown Artist/Album

What could go wrong letting iTunes Organize my library?
I had all my songs in one place in folders labeled with Artist names.
After Organizing, 1/2 my files are under unknown artist and unknown album.
In iTunes "Get Info" all these songs show Encoded With = Unknown.
The artist and album fields are blank.
In explorer properties, all these songs have artist and album names.
They also show Encoded by = iTunes v7.1.1.5
Since the Artist, Album, and Encoding info is attached to the actual song files, can I get iTunes to look at that info?
I have tried to Organize several other times but iTunes doesn't pick up the information it missed the first time.
I know I can manually spend a week imputing the artist and album info but the Encoded With field would still be incorrect.
Could it cause problems later on?
Is there a way to take the songs out of the library and bring them back in?

See Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy before you start. That way if you eliminate too much data you can recover the files in their current state.
Try MediaMonkey. Select a test file, then use Tools > Advanced Tag Management > Clear ID3v1 Tags or Clean ID3v2 Tags. Then try playing the track in iTunes. See which, if either, causes iTunes to see the correct data.
Assuming your library had the correct data for these tracks before you updated it another possible approach would be to temporarily connect to a recent database in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder, export metadata using my script ExportImport, then switch back to the main library and import the data.

Using iTunes to organize library

I have found several topics covering the use of iTunes "keep folders organized" options, but I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for.
I have an extensive library on an external hard drive ripped using different programs, therefore organized different ways. I then added the songs from my external hard drive to my library. What is my best option for having iTunes organize my overall "music" folder in the traditional iTunes organizational tree? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I've just gone through this process in the past week, so I can answer stjpwinter, although this may also answer c4noo7's question as well.
The iTunes library is dynamic, so all you need to do is highlight the relevant songs, Get Info, make changes and hit OK. iTunes will automatically move all the ACDC files into one AC/DC folder, then erase the other folders.

IPhoto Organize Library or Manually?

I just got a Rebel XT and now I'm not sure what to do with my iPhoto library. I had been using a small 2 megapixel Canon PowerShot for years and would just import directly into iPhoto on my G5. Before version 6, the library was simply stored in nested numbered folders corresponding to the date the images were shot. Now with version 6, the library is organized completely differently. Plus, If I use the Canon ImageBrowser software to import the SLR pictures, they are organized differently. In addition, I want to keep all my images on a drive that is on a different Mac on my home network.
What do I do? What did you do?
• Import using iPhoto vs Canon ImageBrowser?
• Let iPhoto organize the library vs Canon ImageBrowser vs manually making folders?
• Reorganize my current iPhoto library to manual organization or ImageBrowser organization?
• Archive current iPhoto library and start over with SLR images?
• Manually name files vs keeping camera file naming?
• Purchase Portfolio or iView MediaPro or Aperture or Lightroom (when available)?
• Anything else I forgot to consider?
Thanks,

Ken:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. How you manage your photos is really what works best for you and how you visualize the organizational system. Here's how I do it:
1 - upload manually (with card reader or with Image Capture w/o card reader) from the camera to a folder on the desktop.
2 - name the folder with the date and a brief description of the contents.
3 - using R-Name I batch sequentially rename the files with the international date format.
4 - import that folder into iPhoto.
This gives me a rolls with the same title as the folder. The file naming gives me excellent chronological search and sorting.
Another method, using the same uploading and renaming above, is to use iPhoto in it's alias mode (see iPhoto's advanced preference section) and keep my folders of image files in my own organized folder system and have iPhoto import only aliases into the library. One caveat to this method is that if you delete a photo from the library it does not get deleted from the source files. That has to be done manually. The strong point to this method is that the source files can be on an external HD giving your boot drive more free space to improve efficiency. These Tutorials describe how to convert to an alias system.
Canon's image browser is just a browser and not an image management application. With iPhoto you can assign keywords to pictures, assemble subsets of pictures into albums without actually moving the original files, etc.
