Saving location on iTunes U recordings

If I stop a podcast in the middle of the playback, my iPod remembers where I left off. However, this does not happen for iTunes U recordings. The position is kept in Now Playing, but if I then listen to something else in the meantime, the spot where I stopped is lost. Is there a way to keep my position if I stop playing in the middle of an iTunes U recording?

That setting in Prefs > Advanced tells iTunes where to put new media when you import it to your library. It doesn't tell iTunes where your library lives. Try launching iTunes while holding down the option key, then navigate to the library on the external when prompted.

I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive. I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location. After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.

They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

Navigon app updated, now saved locations gone!!

Silly me - I allowed a Navigon "update" (via the normal updates mechanism) and the new version appears to have wiped all my saved locations (Favorites). Is there any way of recovering these from an iPhone backup in iTunes?

You might try History ("Alt+S") > "Restore preivous session", then also from History afterwards "Restore Windows" > "Restore All Windows"
Whether you get them back or have to recreate them, I would suggest that you save them all in a bookmark folder so your restore them at once and pin them each, or altogether if you have the "Multiple Tab Handler" extension.
Although I don't have a problem with them disappearing when I start Firefox, they always seemed like a potential problem over time. I use them but I often do start them over from a bookmarked folder so the are "clean" only one page per app-tab.

Any way to change the location where itunes stores the backup files?

I am running low on my C: drive in XP. Any way to change the location where itunes stores the backups of my various devices?

i am currently in the same situation. i purchased an external hard drive and set itunes to save to it in the preferences, and this worked, but only for new additions. all of my current music still plays from my mac HD and not the external. i am assuming i will need to re-add every song. the only plus is that when i transferred my songs to the external, it saved my settings. hopefully it saves the play counts.

Saving Music From Itunes to "Key"

Hey
I really hope someone can help me.
I'm going travelling and bought a "key" or memory stick to save all my music on in case something should happen to my ipod while i'm away. However it won't save. I though i had it saved but then i test it on my P.C at work and there is no music saved just the itunes interface.
Can someone please tell how to transfer my song as i'm leaving Friday and really panicing...
Thanks

You would need to locate the folder where the music is kept (itune music folder) here you will find all your music in mp3 format each song will be save separatly and each album will be in its own file, then all you need do is select copy and past into the key. Use find to locate the itunes folder. Do this see if it works then post back.
Are you using a p.c to save from

How can I locate my iTunes library files. When I click on my itunes icon the message appears, "The file iTunes Library.itl." cannot be found because it was created by a newer version of iTunes."

How can I locate my iTunes library files? When I click on my iTunes icon rather than my iTunes files I receive, " The file iTunes Library.itl." cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I have already tried to update my iTunes program.

Had same problem and solved it without having to reinstore any music or movies:
1. Delete old Library file
2. Go to the 'Previous iTunes Libraries' folder and copy one of the earlier files - note, they have a date extension, e.g. 'iTunes Library 2011-11-01'.
3. Paste this file in your iTuners folder and rename file by removing the date extension - 'iTunes Library'
You should have all your music and paylists in tact, unless it was a really old previous file.

Was there a change to the location where iTunes copies media with the "Keep media folder organized" option selected?

iTunes was copying my media to for example:
\volume\iTunes\Music\Artist\Album\tracks.mp3
\volume\iTunes\Movies\Movie\movie.mp4
\volume\iTunes\TV Shows\TV Show\Season\episode.mp4
I believe after the update it started to copy and move files to different locations:
\volume\iTunes\Artist\Album\tracks.mp3
\volume\iTunes\Movies\movie.mp4
\volume\iTunes\TV Shows\TV Show\episode.mp4
Music is no longer being copied to the Music folder, it's being copied or moved to the root of where I have my iTunes directory defined. Has anyone seen this change happen to them?

Actually to get it to run through your library as it now exists I think the consolidate command is still around (I don't have itunes 10).

I need to know the location where iTunes downloads software to, it is filling up my hard drive.

I need to know the location where iTunes downloads software to, it is filling up my hard drive.
I am trying to put my iPhone4 into recovery and then will restore it. iTunes starts extracting the software. But the iPhone reboots and by the time the software has completed extraction, the iPhone can no longer be seen by iTunes.
We have a very small hard drive on our laptop. Each time iTunes does an extraction, it uses up more space on the C: drive.
Nothing frees up that used drive space. Not closing iTunes or rebooting the computer. Nothing.
How do we release / delete these files?

Migrating from PPC to Intel. Copied iTunes library manually to default location, but iTunes won't recognize it - seems to work, but no songs visible. Using Lion on Mac Mini Server.

I've never had iTunes fail to recognize a library when I moved it to another location, or restored it to the default location. It always just works. But not this time.
I copied my roughly 30G library into the default location, but iTunes doesn't see it at all.
I have no idea what to try next. Help.

Did you copy everything? Media folders, library files, artwork folders, etc? Did you put them in the default location of Music/iTunes/iTunes ?
You can also try starting iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to where you did put the library file.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

I am living in moscow, but i have a mastercard in vietnam. I changed my location in itunes from Russia into Vietnam. But when I change my billing info, and write my card's informations. It said I have problems with the address. I typed my address in VN.

I am living in moscow, but i have a mastercard in vietnam. I changed my location in itunes from Russia into Vietnam. But when I change my billing info, and write my card's informations. It said I have problems with the address. I typed my address in VN. What should I do now ????

To answer the second question first, the owners of the music (and that is not Apple) decide where their music can be sold. If they decide (for whatever reason) not to sell their music in a particular country, they will not let a music retailer (that is Apple this time) sell it in that country. So the "system" is beyond Apple's control.
As for your first post; (if I understand you correctly), the iTunes Store knows that you are in Russia, so using a credit card registered in Vietnam is simply going to look like you're trying to get round the system.
The credit card is tied to an address, and therefore to a country. Simply using a different country's address is not going to work.
By the way, this is a world-wide situation. It's not a matter of having to use a Russian card, whatever card you use has to be registered at an address in Russia.
Use the support link in the iTunes Store to contact Apple and see if you can straighten out whether you can buy songs, where ever you are and with whichever card you have.

Displaying File Location in iTunes

I can't seem to find a way to display my file locations in iTunes - I don't see it as a column that can be displayed. I'd like to be able to view this column to help with possible duplicate removal. I understand how to remove and even view the duplicates, but the missing piece is the actual location of the files, and I don't want to have to individually click on them to get that information or individually pull up the properties of each song. I'd greaty appreciate the help!

The following script (Download here, or copy and paste into a file with extension ".vbs") will set the Description of all the tracks in the playlist(s) you select to the file's path. Obviously if you want to see it you have to turn on the Description column
' # itunespathdescription.vbs
' # This script set the Description of all the files in a single playlist
' # to the file Path.

Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?

It's tedious when trying to drag an app that you really like past 4 'pages' of apps to the 1st page.

HI,
Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?
Yes. Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Select your iPhone under Devices on the left. Select "Apps" in the menu. You can drag apps to any of the home screens you want, then click: Apply bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

No nested folders in Saved Locations?

I love the Saved Locations feature in the Map module. I imagine I will end up with large amounts of these over time, but currently the folder structure seems to be limited to root level folders. Would it be possible to upgrade this to allow nested folders, in the same way as the Collections panel works? I have large sets of incrementally nested location keywords, and it would be great to be able to mimic this structure here.
Nested folders would allow much better organisation of large collections of saved locations. For example, I would sort first by country, then by province, then by area before finally having the locations themselves.
Overall, great work on the Map module. There are various features and further integrations that it would be nice to see added in the future (maps in books and web, export options to create photo maps, adjustable altitude field in GPS metadata, etc.) but this is great for a first version.

I can confirm that Lightroom creates an LR-xx folder when trying to Undo a "New Folder" action......but in my case at least simply right-clicking on the LR-xx folder and selecting "Delete" gets rid of it.
Windows 7, LR4.1.
If that's not working for you, you could try using Explorer/Finder to delete the LR-xx folders out of the "Locations" sub-folder of the Lightroom settings folder.

Default Saving Location Adobe Reader Version 11.0.1

Default Saving Location Adobe Reader 11.0.1 -
Since upgrading to Reader XI the default saving location no longer works. So esssentially in previous versions The file path would default to the last place you saved a document, so when saving multiple documents in the one file path it wasn't time consuming.
Since upgrading it does not do this anymore and you have to select the file saving path each time you open a new PDF, which adds to the time to save multiple documents, so currently I guess it just opens a temporary folder each time you select Save As.
Can you please advise the setting that needs to be altered to fix this.
Thanks

Thank you. We have tried that but it has not made any difference. Adobe still requires a new file name to save the file.
