"Replace Existing Songs and Import Them Again" -- Yes or No?

It is too early in the mroning for me to get my head around this challenge.
I have a CD of an artist's "Greatest Hits." When I go to import it into my iTunes Library I get this message:
I'm sure I have some of these songs on other albums / playlists / compliations / ...
What I want to do is import all the songs on the Greatest Hits and leave all my other songs unchanged. Seems to me I don't want to replace them but I do want to import them again.
So do I hit "Replace Existing" or "Don't Replace?"
Thanks

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 08 or later...
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Cut parts from song and import them into the sampler on ipad

How do I cut parts of my song in garageband (ipad) and put them into the sampler to fix the pitch on specific parts of my pre-recorded vocals?
For example, I already have a song I recorded, and I would like to simply cut a few seconds of the vocals, go into the sampler, fix the pitch, and then re-insert the editied piece back into my song.
Is this possible on the ipad? I know that the "autotune" option isn't available on the ipad, but I simply want to fix the pitch on a few notes and I was wondering if there's any way to do that.
If there's not, do you have any suggestions or any app reccomendations that might help me achieve this? I can't afford a macbook pro so that's out of the question.
Sorry if my explination isn't clear! And thanks for any help :]

Hi,
you should go to PI 7.1 and not PI 7.0 otherwise it makes not so much sense.
And yes it's possible to migrate your scenarios. If you have UDFs you have to check them because the java version has changed.

in garage band, i want to import a 20 minute wav file and cut it into individual songs, and export them to itunes or dropbox or ...
i've imorted the file to audio for imovie, but can't see how to chop it up, save the pieces as individual units, and export them.

Create a new GarageBand project using the "Voice" template.
Drag you wav file into the Track area of the GarageBand window to create an audio track for it.
Use the playback button to find the gaps between the songs.
Mark each song in turn with the cycle region. Press the button with the two blue chasing arrows to enable the cycle region. This will create a yellow bar at the top of the track area. Drag the ends of this bar to mark one of your songs.
Now use the "Share" menu to send your song to iTunes.
When done, adjust the cycle region to mark the second song.

Open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder as shown in this screenshot
and look in the folder named Auto Import. Move any files in that folder to a folder on the Desktop and close the package. Do not make any other changes. Launch iPhoto (the message should be gone) and drag the folder on the Dersktop into the open iPhoto window to import them.

That is normal for photos synced from a computer to a phone using iTunes. Synced photos were never placed in the Camera Roll. Additionally since iOS 8 there is no Camera Roll: http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/09/19/goodbye-camera-roll-where-to-find-your -photos-in-ios-8

Why doesn't iTunes 7 ask me if I want to "replace existing songs"

Before I upgraded to iTunes 7, if I imported a CD that I had maybe previously imported a few songs from, iTunes would say something to the effect of "already been imported, would you like to replace existing songs?" I said yes and it did - keeping play counts, album artwork, bla bla. I've tried everything, including making sure the track's info was EXACTLY the same as the CD's info. Nothing seems to bring that feature back. I guess another option would be to import the duplicate songs, trash the old ones, and when iTunes is unable to find the old ones, direct it to the new ones - but that is cumbersome. Let's say I wanted to re-import all my CDs at some point at a higher quality - that way it would take months! Suggestions?

becausse you are syncing to a new itunes library.
Iphone are meant to be sync to only one itunes library.
Copy your itunes content over to your new computer.

Your i-device was not designed to be a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up. Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. If the computer has nothing on it, the device is set to match the computer's content -- nothing.The exception is purchased content.

I cannot play a song I purchased. The message says the computer is not authorized. I deauthorized and reauthorized it and it still will not work. Should i delete the song and download it again?

Yes ... if just one song on an album is doing that, it usually means you've got a damaged file on your hands.

Any value in exporting iPhoto pictures and importing them into Aperture?

I am moving from iPhoto into Aperture (moving my library again actually) and I know that iPhoto and Aperture can share the iPhoto library once it has been updated but I am wondering if there is any value (or even if it is possible) to export all of the iPhoto pictures and import them into a new Aperture library? The reason that I'm asking this is that I know there are a lot of duplicates in my iPhoto library and I know that Aperture keeps only the original. A couple of weeks ago I moved my iPhoto library onto an external LaCie SSD disk to use with my MacBook Pro but unfortunately corrupted that library and have to make the move again. If there is any value in changing how I'm managing my library I should do it now.
The library corruption was caused by me needing to leave for work and disconnecting the LaCie before Aperture was done sync'ing with my Flickr account. When I tried to use Aperture the next day it was not able to repair/rebuild or use the iPhoto library at all. I was unfortunately not backing up the external disk so I lost everything that I had done to clean up the library after the move. One lesson that I learned was do not automatically sync with Flickr because doing this on an MBP via wireless with an external disk library can add a lot of delay to shutting down Aperture after an MBP wakeup.

Just in case you have not come across these:
Aperture 3.3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture
Aperture 3.3: How to use Aperture to merge iPhoto libraries
but I am wondering if there is any value (or even if it is possible) to export all of the iPhoto pictures and import them into a new Aperture library?
You can - an it will depend on what you want to achieve, if that will usefull. The way to do this would be by imprting your iPhoto library into an Aperture library using Aperture. But Aperture libraries and iPhoto libraries are now interchangable - both are photo libraries, and you could simply use your iPhoto library in Aperture and be done now.
Some reasons why you would want to turn your iPhoto library into a library recognized as Aperture library by importing it into a new, empty Aperture Library:
As long as the photo library will have the "Kind: iPhoto library", you will have to upgrade both iPhoto and Aperture always to the newest versions, or you will not be able to upgrade to a new library format, when a new release of Aperture comes - say (iPhoto '12 and Aperture 4); you will probably have to buy both new releases to continue working with your iPhoto Library in Aperture.
If the kind of your library is "Kind: iPhoto library", it will appear in the Media Browser in the iPhoto section, not in the Aperture section, even if you are using it as your Aperture library. And before syncing with iTunes you will always have to open the Aperture library in iPhoto to point iTunes to it.
Also, in Aperture you have more control about what will be included in your library - In iPhoto there is no way to specify the size and quality of previews. If you do not want or need previews, or you want smaller previews, or no Faces, it would make sense to recreate your iPhoto library by importing it into a new, empty Aperture Library.
If you have more than one iPhoto Library, you can merge them into one big Aperture library to be able to browse all your images without having to switch between libraries. Aperture works very well with really big libraries. There is no need to split libraries.
The reason that I'm asking this is that I know there are a lot of duplicates in my iPhoto library and I know that Aperture keeps only the original.
That is what I meant by having more control on what will be stored. iPhoto will always store a very high quality preview of your edited version; in Aperture you can decide what the preview size and quality will be. But Previews and originals are not duplicates; they are not the same image.

After the update to Lightroom 5.7, the profile of my lenses have disappeared in the camera calibration, how can I import them again because I gave you mine Extra gespeicher. I'm working on a PC.

After the update to Lightroom 5.7, the profile of my lenses have disappeared in the camera calibration, how can I import them again because I gave you mine Extra gespeicher. I'm working on a PC.

Can we see a screenshot that includes the filename you're viewing with its extension and the camera Make list?
What is almost always the case when someone says they are missing most of their lens profiles is that their current image is not a raw file. It doesn't matter whether you shoot raw, it matters what the current images is. Maybe it is an exported JPG or a Edit-In-whatever result file that's a TIF or PSD or JPG.
Here are examples of the screenshot that I'm asking for:
Raw files show 24 items in the Make list:
While non-raw files have only 9 items + None in the Make list:

I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

How do I select multiple songs and uncheck them from compilations (itunes 10.5.2)

So I found to my annoinance that itunes has recently moved much of my music to compilations that shouldn't be there. I tried searching online for how to turn compilations off or select multiple songs and uncheck them from compilations all at once and although I found both answers, they must have only worked for older versions of itunes. I no longer can find the option to turn off compilations under preferences and when I try to select multiple songs at a time then press "Get Info" the "part of a compilation" checkmark is not there. It is only there when one song is highlighted. This is very frustrated. In fact I would venture to say I've never been so angry with Apple. There are 609 songs "stuck" in my freaking compilations! I don't have time nor should I have to take the time to go through every single song right clicking it, pressing "Get info", unchecking "part of compilation" then clicking ok. WAY TOO MUCH TIME! If anyone has any good news on a faster way to do this I'd be VERY THANKFUL!

This was a life saver! I even started to manually tick the box as well!
