Hello,
IS-U CCS is not part of CRM... it is an industry specific add-on of SAP ERP (or R/3). And no portal is necessary to make it work.
Many cookbooks are available in sap.service.com about the integration between CRM and IS-U. Check the following thread:
[SAP CRM 7.0 and IS-U integration|SAP CRM 7.0 and IS-U integration;
You will also find valuable information in the dedicated SCN forum:

Kind regards,

Corrupt itunes library.xml

The last time I opened iTunes, it told me my library file was corrupt and began importing my library XML file. iTunes doesn't keep a very good job of syncing the XML file with the library because only about 1/10th of the import was accurate. I lost all of my play counts and dates - added, modified, and last played. So, as it is, my library is almost informationally worthless. My question is, since I have the damaged library file, is there anyway to extract what wasn't corrupt from it, or to repair it by importing the music from my itunes music folder which contains all of my current music
Are there any common programs to do this? Any tips or tricks?

You might want to check versiontracker.com for iTunes utilities. There may be one that will salvage iTunes files. I don't have any personal experience with iTunes salvaging utilities, so I have nothing else to recommend. I do know that versiontracker.com is usually a pretty good place to check for useful utilities, if you don't find a specific answer by searching this discussion forum.
When you have your library repaired (hopefully a repair can be done) make regular backups of all your iTunes files you don't want to lose. The iTMS suggests this after each purchase I've made and I think it's a good practice to get in the habit of doing once a week, or once a month if you don't make too many changes to your library.

SAP Library

Hello guys,
Is it true that there is some SAP books and papers from SAP Library very intersting to read to set up easly for example the different infoproviders and extractor from SD, CRM for BW
It seems that the books deals with how to and where to use the several extractors, about the Business Content ..by Domaine

The Best Practice are usefull when my need match with existing scenario. but always I can not find any help. So I was wondering if any book exists with maximum details about each Domaine
if we are talking about MM or SD implementation, I think it is better to have some book talking about the existing infoproviders and extractors for this matter.
the best practice for Logistiques are 5 scenario, it is not enough
Thanks for your replies

Have found multiple iTunes Library.xml files. Moved Library to new Hard Drive and it needs to be completely rebuilt?

Hello. I have a Mac Mini operating Mac OS X 10.7.2. I recently had to move my iTunes Library to a new hard drive. I followed the directions on how to move the library and refind everything yet when I do so what comes up is a mere skeleton of what I had. I have had to hunt down my purchased Apps, Music and Movies and re-add them to the library. I also noticed in doing this I have multiple iTunes Library.xml files ... shouldn't there only be one? If so how do I clean this up without doing any accidental damage (i.e. how do I find the one that is being used and delete the rest?)? If I delete the others is there any risk of losing purchased content? Lastly syncing my iPads has become a nightmare as I get the "This iPad is currently synced to another iTunes library" message. Obviously something

It's hard for me to picture the exact situation. It sounds like you still have your library file on the internal but some files on the external, and maybe some on the internal, some of which are in the library and others not... By re-adding things after consolidating it may have made things into a hodge-podge. Yes, that article you referenced says: "iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder"with Media Folder being the emphasis. You probably should have just moved your whole iTunes folder. Still, moving the media folder as instructed should not have messed up the library. Did you make the mistake of starting up iTunes before the external drive had mounted fully and it then told you it couldn't find many files? How you proceed to sort it out will depend upon how much time you want to spend and how important things such as ratings and playcount are to you. I have not actually used the consolidate feature across different drives myself (and don't feel inclined to do so here to test ).
If you are in the USA you can download some previous purhcases with iCloud, but not all.
Here's a bit on what an iTunes folder should look like:

Library files with graphic and explanation of different iTunes versions - http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=13169517
Once you get iTunes working off the external drive it should just put new media to the external when you add it.
I have almost no experience with synching (I synched my neice's iPod, once, about 4 years ago).

When I boot up itunes it now says "library.xml" instead of just "iTunes"?

I recently tried to export my library which resides on an external hard drive to another external hard drive and failed. Not only didn't it copy but I couldn't find my library.
I managed to recreate my library in tact, and really don't care about the exporting aspect any more, but now when I boot up instead of saying "iTunes" at the top of the iTunes window and on my taskbar, it says "Lbrary.xml" as if that is the name of the software rather than iTunes. Everything seems to be working fine, but I wonder if there is a way to get it to say "iTunes" again.
Thanks for any help.
Mike

What you see at the top of the iTunes window is usually the name of the folder where your "iTunes Library.itl" file resides (that is your main library file). By default that folder name is "iTunes" and that's why you'd see it displayed, not because that is the name of the program.
But now with "Library.xml" showing I wonder if you re-built your library by opening your .xml file? Just for kicks, you might hold the Shift key as you launch iTunes and select "Choose Library" at the prompt, then navigate to where your "iTunes Library.itl" file resides and see what comes up.

Can't import iTunes Library.xml to rebuild library in iTunes 7.5 - why?

Hi,
I did an "erase & install" with Leopard because I got kernel panics with 10.4.11, and whenever I try to import my old iTunes Library.xml (which weighs more than 45 Mo) to rebuild my library in iTunes 7.5 as indicated in the kb, I get a new kernel panic before it can complete the process, usually between the 10th and 15th minute. This happens even with extensions removed, and with permissions repaired.
However, I noticed that when I interrupt the process, the partial file I get is functional and I get access to a random portion of my library...
Does anybody have a tip?
My library is really important for me, especially the playlists, which I have saved separately one by one. Does anyone know if they would work if reimported with a library rebuilt from scratch by dragging and dropping my music files in iTunes?
Thanks for your help, I know it's a lot to ask...
Ben

You should be able to create a new Library file by doing the drag and drop of your music files as you describe. I would do them about 50 albums at a time to start with.
You might want to start by quitting iTunes and going to the /Your Home/Music/iTunes Music folder and moving the "iTunes Library" itl and "iTunes Music Library.xml" to your Desktop. Then launch iTunes to create new blank ones. Set your iTunes preferences and so forth before you begin. Do a few and make sure you are getting the results you are expecting. In other words do you want iTunes to move your music files to the default location, etc.
You may need to recreate your playlists when done if you do not have the individual xml files to re-import.

Why do i have to itunes library xml files?

Along with iTunes Library, there are two xml files i have; itunes music library.xml and itunes library.xml, do i need them both? I only ask as the file path information in itunes music library.xml are not up to data(i moved my library to an external HD) and would like to know if it would be safe to delete it.
The links in itunes library.xml have seem to been updated.
Thanks

Google is your friend! (To quote:)
iTunes Music Library.xml
This file contains some (but not all) of the same information stored in the iTunes Library file. The purpose of the iTunes Music Library.xml file is to make your music and playlists available to other applications on your computer. In Mac OS X other iLife applications (like iPhoto, iDVD, and iMovie) use this file to make it easier for you to add music from your iTunes library to your projects.

Can I manually edit the iTunes Music Library.xml file

Here's why.
Noticed on my Apple TV that there were a number of podcasts that when selected would say "Apple TV cannot play the current song".
Looked in iTunes and these podcasts are no where to be found. Did some searches in Spotlight and also, turned up zeros. Not found.
I then looked directly into my iTunes Music Library.xml file and sure enough there are the records.
What is odd is that the location of all the bad songs have a similar invalid path.
Bad path.
<key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/iTunes/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/Podcasts/KQED/podcast.mp3</string>
Correct Path
<key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/iTunes/Music/Podcasts/KQED'/podcast.mp3</string>
Now, all of these have dates that lead me to believe this was due to an iTunes upgrade back in September of 2005. It doesn't look like they are causing problems with iTunes itself. However, it is quite annoying for my Apple TV.
Question. Is there a different way to fix this than just manually removing the entries from the xml file?
I haven't tried to edit the iTunes Music Library.xml file just yet as I want to make I don't totally screw things up first.

I did some additional testing here and I deleted the track information from the iTunes Music Library.xml
On start up of iTunes, it does not add the deleted file back in. On the Apple TV, it still shows the bad file.
What I think that means is that even the Apple TV gets its playlist information from another source.
I have also started on another track which is to remove all of my podcasts from iTunes. Which I have now done.
The only ones left are these bad tracks that only show up in the iTunes Music Library.xml file and more importantly on my Apple TV.
I'd put this on the podcast or the Apple TV thread, but still believe this is an iTunes issue.

ITunes library xml from windows to mac using external drive.

Hi there!
I'm a newbie on mac computers.. I've recently purchase a macbook pro retina.
So, I used to use iTunes in windows XP. My old computer crashed and I can't re-open it and save files...
Now, the only file I have from my windows library is an "library.xml" file.
The mp3 files that I had in previous iTunes playlists are in my external I: Drive. (not in Itunes folder).
I was searching in apple communities to see how I can transfer playlists in my new iTunes on mac.
But I can't find a solution to my problem... and unfortunately I don't know if there is...
I've try to set the iTunes media folder location my external hard drive, from Preferences-->Advanced-->iTunes media folder location.
Then I go to file-->library--> import playlist and I open the "library.xml".
The result is that I have all my playlists in tact, like it was in my previous iTunes.... But THERE IS NOT ANY FILE ON THEM!!!
So, I have only the playlists... Could you help me to set my I: drive as default path of itunes library, to get my playlists WITH the mp3s?
PLEASE HELP!
Thank you in advance.

Should I change the Preferences-->Advanced-->iTunes media folder location back to default folder?
That should be set to wherever you want iTunes to store media in the future (though it sounds like you are planning on keeping this unchecked anyway). It has no effect on where iTunes looks for existing files. That is already determined when you first add the file to iTunes or through later consolidating.
In theory you should be able to start iTunes with a blank library, use the import function to add that .xml file and it should still point to the files on the external. If that is not working then I guess it is possible all those %20 space designations may be causing problems. It's strange you are seeing those coded that way but it is likely some carry-over from Windows. The purpose of adding a test file to the external, then adding it to iTunes, then looking at the .xml is to see how Mac iTunes lists the path for a file on the external added when using the Mac so you can use that as a model for changing other paths if necessary.
Holding down the option key while starting iTunes (make sure you are using the correct key) or immediately after starting it should invoke a screen asking if you want to make a new library. If this is not working for you then I have no idea why because it works for hundreds of other people I have told to do this.

Is there a way to rebuild the ITunes Library XML file from my IPod?

After several promptings, I finally decided to install ITunes 7.4.3.1. Like a fool, I did not backup my entire library prior to doing this upgrade. Nothing is going to go wrong now mate, is it? Everything seemed to proceed just fine with the upgrade. I noticed that ITunes updated the XML Library in the process. Where the problems occured was after the upgrade, I was in the middle of listening to the latest "NPR Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" Podcast (I have some 3,000 downloaded podcasts in over 85GB worth of space) when ITunes crashed. When I brought ITunes back up, it had seemed to have reverted to an earlier backup ITunes Library XML file that I had made months ago.
I still have all of the .mp3, .m4a, .mp4 and .m4v files stored in my ITunes Music folder. Somehow when I brought ITunes back up, it had lost all of the music I had dowloaded from the ITunes store even though the files were still out on disk. It thought there were only 395 podcasts despite the 3,000 plus files out there.
Clearly, something went horribly wrong and I don't want to spend weeks downloading these files again when the only thing that really needs to be done is the ITunes Library XML data file needs to be rebuilt. It dawns on me that my IPod has an XML data file that save any updates I have not yet synced with it that it is quite current. Is there some way that I can sync my IPod with ITunes and copy the IPod XML data file into ITunes Library XML data file? I know that there must be some way to access the IPod since I can plug it into my Kenwood car stereo and read through the IPod's contents.
Is there anyone out there that has an idea that might be able to help me recover my ITunes library?
Thanks for any assistance,

The XML file is not used by iTunes. It is created for the use of other programs. Your library is in the itl file. SInce you still have the file you could simply add them to your library using the add folder option instead of downloading again.

ITunes library.xml Metadata storage issues

Hi all,
I've had this problem for quite a while. My .xml file corrupts and changes to "read only", preventing any further writing. iTunes automatically creates temp files. My solution thus far has been to trash the .xml file after a restart, and trash the temp files once a new .xml file has been created, however, this only seems to be a short term solution as the problem consistently returns. Any suggestions for a permanant library.xml fix?

no it doesnt, so for whatever reason it is not updating propely.

I no longer have iTunes library.xml on my PC but I have all of my songs. How do I download them to my iPhone - it won't allow me to drag and drop though my PC recognizes the device.

My PC has all of my iTunes and it recognizes my iPhone 4 device but I cannot drag and drop the songs. How do I copy the songs to my new iPhone without having to re-purchase everything? Unfortunately, It appears I no longer have iTunes Music Library.xml on my PC.

My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine. We always manually manage our music (no auto sync). iTunes is up to date on the PCs. My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines. He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4. I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s. How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
Thanks

Force Re-Creation Of iTunes Library.itl from iTunes Library.xml?

Can't figure out how to edit a post, so I'm putting this here instead of adding it to "Recovery From Hosed Music Locations - Without Losing Ratings?".
iTunes v9.
It's dawning on me that I can edit "iTunes Library.xml" and fix my hundreds (if not thousands) of broken links there.
But iTunes seems to work out of "iTunes Library.itl".
Seems like there had to be a way to get iTunes to re-create "iTunes Library.itl" from "iTunes Library.xml".
?

Damage the ITL first. That method has worked for several folks. Example:

Problem with the SAP menu in CRM 2007

Hello all,
We just had a brand new installation of SAP CRM 2007 in our organization. As soon as I logged in I am puzzled to see that all the menus and menu paths won't show up.
For example:
If I go in to Master data --> Business partner --> There is no menu path for Maintain Business partner etc.
Same is the case with Marketing, Sales and Service. I don't see any of the real menu paths for creating marketing projects, segment builder, sales order creation screen etc. All these components are missing.
I checked on SU01 regarding the roles assigned to me. There were none and the profile assigned to me says "Z_SAP_ALMOST_ALL" or something. I tried finding out the existing roles and am not sure about the options. I added the role for business partner in to my user ID, logged off and logged on and still nothing shows up.
The menu is still the same.

Jack,
I'm going to be very polite here about this, but did you read the CRM master guide before your installation or any of the documentation on CRM 2007?
If you have read this you would have realized that the SAP GUI is no longer supported for most business user tasks in CRM according to OSS note 1118231. In addition a search of this forum would have revealed this same answer. That is why those transactions are removed from your menu.
SAP Easy Access CRM 2007 menu
In future please do a search before asking these types of questions. I'm going to lock this thread as it duplicates a past thread and is a generally known CRM 2007 fact.
Thank you,

How do you change the default location of the library xml and other related files?

After the most recent software update of iTunes for Windows, the new software resorts to going to a folder on my hard drive for the files that determine your library:
\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.xml
My itl and xlm files are located at on an exgternal network connected drive in a iTunes\ folder.
Asa temporary solution I replated and copied my itl and xml files into the C drive folders but I would like to modifiy the defualt settings in the solftware?
Is that possible?

This question should not be in the "ITunes for Mac" dicusiosn but in Itunes for PC.
Unrelated to this quesiton but related to the software update, I noticed that not all settings for my albums's artwork came over. I would prefer avoiding going into each album to modify album art info.... >:-(
