Please help with moving/storing files

I'm looking to move/or store music files to a external hard drive.Idealy i'd like to be able to turn on my hard drive and see all the music files on itunes.is this possible even if not,how do i load my music to the external hard drive? I have a owc mercury elite pro.Thanks

The default setting in iTunes is to store a copy of every song you add to it in the iTunes Music Folder.
If you change this setting, you can keep music anywhere you please, like an external. Go to your iTunes preferences. Click the Advanced button and select the General tab. You'll see a checkbox next to 'Copy files to iTunes Music Folder when adding to library'. Uncheck that box. Click the OK button in the bottom right corner.
Now, create a place to keep music on the external. Under the File menu, select Add To Library. Select the folder on the external and everything inside will be added. Just remember that whenever you go mobile or don't have the external connected, those songs won't be available. As obvious as this sounds, I only bring this up because I've seen people do this and their iTunes library ended up in complete chaos. They would end up with a copy on their internal and their external or would trash the wrong copy, stuff like that. These were not the most organized people though.
Does that make sense?

  • Please Help with XML input file

    I created a flash swf with AS3 and i am loading the data via XML. I have a background that needs to load and I also created a box in which I can change the color via XML. I am have problems writing the XML code. Could someone please help. I'm brand new to this so I don't know if i'm even close. Here is the xml info i have so far. thanks
    <data backgroundColor="0x202020" width="400" marginTop="150" marginBottom="150"><![CDATA[<p align="left">COPY GOES HERE<br><br></p>]]>
    </data>
    <backgrounds switchDelay="6000">

    </backgrounds>

    Yes, it is possible. Unfortunately I can't provide any specifics for an XML data file because we use the "field nominated" format.
    Essentially, the data file contains data definition elements and references to the form(s) that the data gets applied to. With the field nominated data file (and an XML file is probably similar) there are two basic methods to do this. One, there is a form reference followed by all the field definitions that are to be applied to that form; then if there are other forms there would be another form reference followed by the fields for that form. Two, the data file would contain data field definitions as "global" fields and this would be followed by all of the form references that these global fields would be applied to; optionally, there would be form-specific field definitions following some of the form references.
    In field nominated format this looks like:
    ^form form-1-name.mdf
    ^field name
    George Jones
    ^field amount
    1234.00
    ^field date
    01/01/2000
    ^form form-2-name.mdf
    ^field regarding
    Tammy Wynette
    ^field occupation
    country music artist
    or
    ^global name
    George Jones
    ^global amount
    1234.00
    ^global regarding
    Tammy Wynette
    ^global occupation
    country music artist
    ^form form-1-name.mdf
    ^field date
    01/01/2000
    ^form form-2-name.mdf
    As I stated, I don't know how this would look within an XML file but I'm sure the concept would be the same. For the first example there might be a form reference followed by all the associated field definitions. In the second example there would be the global field references followed by the form references with the optional imbedded field reference(s). Or, at least, something similar.
    Perhaps someone that uses XML files will provide appropriate samples.

  • Help with moving iTunes files from windows.old to reinstalled Vista.

  • URGENT PLEASE HELP WITH A MUSIC FILE

    Sorry for the urgency but this is last minute.
    I need getting a music file to start playing on one slide and play through to about four slides.
    What happens is the music will start playing but when I click to the next slide it stops playing.
    Please Help

    Yes, you will connect two separate Keynote files using the hyperlink function, found in the Hyperlink Inspector. You attach a hyperlink to text or an object (which can be set to be completely transparent), and then point the hyperlink to the other presentation. (When presenting, it is a good idea to have both presentations open, so there is no delay when you click the hyperlink.)

  • Please help with this error. file not found yet it is in path. thanks

    when attempting to launch app, the following error is recieved:
    <Sep 30, 2004 1:30:47 PM EDT> <Error> <NodeManager> <Node manager could not find the required library, libNodeManager.so, in path - /usr/j2se/jre/lib/i386/client:/usr/j2se/jre/lib/i386:/usr/j2se/jre/../lib/i386:/export/home/bea/weblogic81/server/lib/solaris:/export/home/bea/weblogic81/server/lib/solaris/oci920_8:/usr/lib>
    i have copied the noted file, libNodeManager.so to every directory in the path, set permissions to rwxrwxrwx checked case and spelling.
    what am i missing?
    thanks in advance

    Try runnning ldd -v <program>
    This will list all the libraries that you will need to have in your library path, I am not a programmer, I am assuming that libNodeManager.so might be calling another library(ies) which you cannot find.
    I hope this helps.

  • I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    You mean an image such as a scanned document?
    If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
    You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

  • Need Help With a Stored Procedure

    Help With a Stored Procedure
    Hi everyone.
    I am quite new relative to creating stored procedures, so I anticipate that whatever help I could get here would be very much helpful.
    Anyway, here is my case:
    I have a table where I need to update some fields with values coming from other tables. The other tables, let us just name as tblRef1, tblRef2 and tblRef3. For clarity, let us name tblToUpdate as my table to update. tblToUpdate has the following fields.
    PlanID
    EmployeeIndicator
    UpdatedBy
    CreatedBy
    tblRef1, tblRef2 and tblRef3 has the following fields:
    UserName
    EmpIndicator
    UserID
    In my stored procedure, I need to perform the following:
    1. Check each row in the tblToUpdate table. Get the CreatedBy value and compare the same to the UserName and UserID field of tblRef1. If no value exists in tblRef1, I then proceed to check if the value exists in the same fields in tblRef2 and tblRef3.
    2. If the value is found, then I would update the EmployeeIndicator field in tblToUpdate with the value found on either tblRef1, tblRef2 or tblRef3.
    I am having some trouble writing the stored procedure to accomplish this. So far, I have written is the following:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Proc_Upd IS v_rec NUMBER;
    v_plan_no tblToUpdate.PLANID%TYPE;
    v_ref_ind tblToUpdate.EMPLOYEEINDICATOR%TYPE;
    v_update_user tblToUpdate.UPDATEDBY%TYPE;
    v_created_by tblToUpdate.CREATEDBY%TYPE;
    v_correct_ref_ind tblToUpdate.EMPLOYEEIDICATOR%TYPE;
    CURSOR cur_plan IS SELECT PlanID, EmployeeIndicator, UPPER(UpdatedBy), UPPER(CreatedBy) FROM tblToUpdate;
    BEGIN
    Open cur_plan;
         LOOP
         FETCH cur_plan INTO v_plan_no, v_ref_ind, v_update_user, v_created_by;
              EXIT WHEN cur_plan%NOTFOUND;
              BEGIN
              -- Check if v_created_by has value.
                   IF v_created_by IS NOT NULL THEN
                   -- Get the EmpIndicator from the tblRef1, tblRef2 or tblRef3 based on CreatedBy
                   SELECT UPPER(EmpIndicator)
                        INTO v_correct_ref_ind
                        FROM tblRef1
                        WHERE UPPER(USERNAME) = v_created_by
                        OR UPPER(USERID) = v_created_by;
                        IF v_correct_ref_ind IS NOT NULL THEN
                        -- Update the Reference Indicator Field in the table TRP_BUSPLAN_HDR_T.
                             UPDATE TRP_BUSPLAN_HDR_T SET ref_ind = v_correct_ref_ind WHERE plan_no = v_plan_no;
                        ELSIF
                        -- Check the Other tables here????
                        END IF;
                   ELSIF v_created_by IS NULL THEN
                   -- Get the EmpIndicator based on the UpdatedBy
                        SELECT UPPER(EmpIndicator)
                        INTO v_correct_ref_ind
                        FROM tblRef1
                        WHERE UPPER(USERNAME) = v_update_user
                        OR UPPER(USERID) = v_created_by;
                        IF v_correct_ref_ind IS NOT NULL THEN
                        -- Update the Reference Indicator Field in the table TRP_BUSPLAN_HDR_T.
                             UPDATE TRP_BUSPLAN_HDR_T SET ref_ind = v_correct_ref_ind WHERE plan_no = v_plan_no;
                        ELSIF
                        -- Check the Other tables here????
                        END IF;
                   END IF;
              END;
         END LOOP;
         CLOSE cur_plan;
         COMMIT;
    END
    Please take note that the values in the column tblToUpdate.UpdatedBy or tblToUpdate.CreatedBy could match either the UserName or the UserID of the table tblRef1, tblRef2, or tblRef3.
    Kindly provide more insight. When I try to execute the procedure above, I get a DATA NOT FOUND ERROR.
    Thanks.

    Ah, ok; I got the updates the wrong way round then.
    BluShadow's single update sounds like what you need then.
    I also suggest you read this AskTom link to help you see why you should choose to write DML statements before choosing to write cursor + loops.
    In general, when you're being asked to update / insert / delete rows into a table or several tables, your first reaction should be: "Can I do this in SQL?" If you can, then putting it into a stored procedure is usually just a case of putting the sql statement inside the procedure header/footers - can't really get much more simple than that! *{;-)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

  • [ETL]Could you please help with a problem accessing UML stereotype attributes ?

    Hi all,
    Could you please help with a problem accessing UML stereotype attributes and their values ?
    Here is the description :
    -I created a UML model with Papyrus tool and I applied MARTE profile to this UML model.
    -Then, I applied <<PaStep>> stereotype to an AcceptEventAction ( which is one of the element that I created in this model ), and set the extOpDemand property of the stereotype to 2.7 with Papyrus.
    -Now In the ETL file, I can find the stereotype property of extOpDemand as follows :
    s.attribute.selectOne(a|a.name="extOpDemand") , where s is a variable of type Stereotype.
    -However I can't access the value 2.7 of the extOpDemand attribute of the <<PaStep>> Stereotype. How do I do that ?
    Please help
    Thank you

    Hi Dimitris,
    Thank you , a minimal example is provided now.
    Version of the Epsilon that I am using is : ( Epsilon Core 1.2.0.201408251031 org.eclipse.epsilon.core.feature.feature.group Eclipse.org)
    Instructions for reproducing the problem :
    1-Run the uml2etl.etl transformation with the supplied launch configuration.
    2-Open lqn.model.
    There are two folders inside MinimalExample folder, the one which is called MinimalExample has 4 files, model.uml , lqn.model, uml2lqn.etl and MinimalExampleTransformation.launch.
    The other folder which is LQN has four files. (.project),LQN.emf,LQN.ecore and untitled.model which is an example model conforming to the LQN metamodel to see how the model looks like.
    Thank you

  • Please help with slideshow problems!

    Am using Photoshop Elements 8 and trying to make a slideshow. Have tried 4 times now and keep ending up with same problem, cannot reopen project to continue edititing.  Won't show up in orginizer and when I find on harddrive and try to open get message " wmv file cannot be opened".  How can I save a
    slideshow inprogress and be able to reopen and continue to edit and make slideshow?  I want to thank anyone who can help me with this in advance as I
    have gotten so frustrated that I want to just scream.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the help, thought I had done so but maybe not.  Anyway will have another go at it, now may I ask another
    question?  I am trying to add audio to slideshow.  I have some music I purchased thru amazon as mp3 files but I get
    message no codec and when I try to add wmv I get same message.  What type of file do I need and how can I add
    multiple songs to one slideshow.   I have one little wmv file that will go in, but it just replicates itself multiple times until
    it fills slide show. 
    Thanks again, sorry to be a bother, but this thing is driving this old man crazy.

    Subject: Please help with slideshow problems!
    You need to save the slideshow project in order to be able to go back later and make changes or additions to an existing slideshow . The wmv file is a final output format.
    Now you are most probably using only the Output command: that is what makes the wmv file.
    You should also do the Save Project command. (and I make it a practice to do the Save Project command before I do the Output command).
    If you look at the Elements Organizer 8 Help, there is a topic on "Create a slide show".
    -- Very close to the beginning of that topic is a screen shot of the Sldie Show Editor screen,
    -- The bar below the usual menu bar is labeled with a "B" and called the Shortcuts bar.
    -- The 1st entry on that Shortcuts bar is "Save Project"
    It is the Save Project command that saves the information about which photos, audio, etc you placed in that specific slide show so that you can come back again to do subsequent editing.  Save each Project with a unique name.
    After completing the Save Project command, you shoud see an "icon" in the Organizer for that slide show.
    Note:  you must also keep the photo files and audio files which you have used in this slide show: you can't delete them because the project file does NOT contain a copy of the photos, it only has the identification and folder location of the photo and audio files.

    I am afraid there is no solution.
    PowerPC refers to the processing chip used by Apple before they transferred to Intel chips. They are very different, and applications written only for PPC Macs cannot work on a Mac running Lion.
    You could contact the developers to see if they have an updated version in the pipeline.
