Support symbolic links (symlinks or Unix's 'ln -s') in the iTunes Media folder hierarchy

As of iTunes version 12.0.1.26, iTunes has partial support for symbolic links in the iTunes Media folder hierarchy. I'd like Apple to enhance iTunes to treat any symlink or folder alias within the hierarchy the same as folders. With the Unix core under OS X, there is no clear reason to not support this feature.
Why is this important? As more of us try to use iTunes as the single repository of all media, the library size becomes larger than is possible to hold on a single partition. The simplest and most convenient solution is to allow users to move large folders (e.g. Music, or Movies) to a different drive or partition, then put an alias or symlink in the original location within the iTunes hierarchy. Users with large collections or small partitions may need to split multiple times. Other users may want to put the bulk of their media on their home/work NAS and only keep a portion on their laptop for mobile access (think long overseas flights), but not have to constantly fiddle with iTunes.
The point is not whether any one of these scenarios may be supported today though a crude hack or third-party tool. Support for symlinks would be relatively easy for Apple to implement and extremely flexible for advanced users.
This is partially supported today. For example, if you do what I described above, iTunes will play all of your existing media. The part that is definitely broken is when you try to use the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder, iTunes will not copy the file to a location under a symlink or alias. The new file will sit in the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder and iTunes will generate multiple instances/tracks inside iTunes (e.g. movies appear in the "Unwatched" tab). While there are ways to work around this limitation, they are tedious and ultimately unnecessary if full symlink/alias support is provided.

Pete

  • Link to iTunes Media folder after rebuild

    I kept my iTunes Media folder on a separate drive.  After rebuilding my system I linked iTunes to my folder (Preferences / advanced) and it doesn't pick it up.

    Hi Appletart5000,
    Thanks for the update and letting me know it did not resolve the issue for you.  I'd say at this point a new library with the media added back might be the way to go.  Using the article from earlier, you'd want to create a new library and then locate the media files and add them into iTunes:
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    If that still doesn't work or you've already tried that with a new library, you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources:
    http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

  • RemoteApp File Paths do not support Symbolic Links

    Has anyone gotten RemoteApp to work with symbolic links?
    I have an application in C:\app\1.0 . I have a symbolic link C:\app\latest that points to the 1.0 folder. When I publish the application through the GUI, it stores the path as C:\app\1.0 rather than C:\app\latest. If I use a PowerShell Command, it will store
    the symbolic link version of the path, but the application will fail to open.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    As per my research, I can say that it supports the symbolic link for RemoteApp. But please check that you have placed the correct path links for RemoteApp to use. As when RemoteApp used the symbolic link, we must have the path link correct which will open the
    application.
    Also please see that you have latest version of client RDP installed, RDP 8.1.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Symbolic Links iTunes Media

    I have just migrated to an iMac.  I have a small SSD drive and a HDD drive.  For iTunes, I have a symbolic link for the iTunes Media folder to the HDD drive. However, I am now wondering how this will work if I use Time Machine.  For example, will Time Machine try to back those files up twice?  Also, if I go to restore, will it also try to restore all the media files everytime.  I am just a little confused by it now.  The sym link seemed like a great idea to move stuff onto the HDD but still keep it organized through my OS X profile.  But, I'm not sure now.

  • Is there any hope of apple adding a 're-link with media folder'-type function to iTunes?

    Is there any hope of apple adding a 're-link with media folder'-type function to iTunes?
    I have 1000s of broken links after installing the latest version of iTunes and updating some files in my media folder. The location of my itunes library has not changed, and all the files are there (I know because I've just waited several hours for the files to be updated by my ultra-slow computer) - by my logic, there should be some menu option that simply re-synchronises with the media folder, just like itunes would do with an ipod - it can't be that hard can it? The only way I can restore a link is by clicking every song (I have over 28,000) and locating the file in the folder that iTunes claims to use as its media folder - the new version 10 option of then using this location to restore all broken links doesn't work because it only looks in the specific album file, and after a couple of times this dialog box no longer even comes up, so I couldn't ask it to do this even if I wanted to. At the moment the only option I can see is to completely wipe iTunes and re-load all my music from scratch - using my tired and over-worked computer this will realistically take around 15 hours that I don't have, and my computer will melt in the process. I wish I'd never tried to 'tidy up' my iTunes library...
    PLEASE Apple, how hard can it be to have a function that searches for and restores broken links by itself????? I've told you where the music is - just flipping look for it yourself instead of getting me to do it!

    You don't have to re-rip, re-import or re-download all your content. You can clear the iTunes library, either by selecting all in the libary and pressing the Delete key, saying "no" when it asks if you want to remove the files themselves, and then use the Add To Library command, selecting the iTunes Media folder (or iTunes Music folder, as applicable to your situation), and that will add back all your content. It shouldn't take more than a few minutes; if it does, something may be amiss with your hard drive or the library file is corrupted (in which case just delete the library file and re-do the Add To Library command).

  • Clustering, unix symbolic links, and war files

              Hello,
              we use symbolic links in our web application to a large shared storage device.
              This works when running a single server, when the application is not a war file.
              When we cluster the application, the admin server creates a war file, blindly
              follows the symbolic links and tries to include all files in the shared storage
              device. Bad!
              Is there a work-around to this problem in a clustered configuration?
              -Thanks-
              

              hi,
              can you tell me know you deploy your app to the cluster member
              manually? do you run each member as an admin server? how do
              you group them into a cluster then?
              thanks,

  • Can I move the common library or use a symbolic link so that Dropbox can sync it?

    A team of us are now using Fireworks for interaction design, and need to synchronise the common library so that the elements we use are up to date.
    1.  Is the common library the correct method? 
    2. we use dropbox, and I don't think I can tell dropbox to synchronise just the common library folder (as an isolated path from the rest of the dropbox tree...) - so, is there a trick using a symbolic link we could use so that dropbox thinks the common library is actually in it's own tree?  (OSX is BSD afterall...)
    We're on Mac OSX 10.7.X, running FW CS6 and using the latest dropbox for Mac.
    I look forward to hearing some ideas.  The question of teams using fireworks has been raised several times since 2009, and Adobe still hasn't got a solution.  The mind boggles as to whether or not Adobe takes Fireworks seriously - I hope they do...
    All the best,
    Dylan

    Thanks groove25.
    I did find that it is possible to use symbolic links and Dropbox to synchronise the common library across computers.  It does come with its idiosynchrasies though (excuse thepun).
    I'm going to have a go with what this thread recommends:
    http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20120803093247391
    and leichter's explanation and walkthrough (nested in the thread) looks very helpful:
    There's a subtle point that, once you understand it, makes symlinks much more useful in Dropbox.
    The whole design of symlinks in Unix tries to make them invisible to programs that don't specifically try to manipulate them. So suppose 'sym' is a symlink to 'file'. If a program opens 'sym' for read, it actually gets the data in 'file'. If it appends to 'sym', it actually appends to 'file'. However, if it deletes 'sym', what disappears is the link 'sym', not the file 'file'. Opening 'sym' for writing as a new file - not appending to it - is equivalent to deleting the old file and creating a new one: It leaves 'file' unchanged and creates an entirely new file named 'sym' which no longer has any connection with 'file'.
    A link to a directory follows the same rules. Looking a file up using the symlink as the name really searches the linked-to directory. Creating a file through the symlink is like appending: It creates the entry in the linked directory. And so on.
    A program that wishes to do something special - like change where a symlink points - has to be aware that it's dealing with a symlink and use special OS calls for that exact purpose.
    Dropbox works with symlinks *but it doesn't do anything special with them*. So suppose you put that 'sym' linked to 'file' in your Dropbox directory. Dropbox comes along, finds a new file, and sends it to its servers. What does it send? Well, first the name 'sym', and then the "contents" - i.e., what it gets from reading 'sym' which is exactly the contents of 'file'. On the server, and then later on other clients, what you will find is a normal file named 'sym' with the contents of 'file'. *There is no connection with a file named 'file'.* If you change 'file' on the system where 'sym' links to it, the changes propagate. If you change it anywhere else, the changes propagate back - but Dropbox doesn't modify files in place, it writes entire new ones. So the effect back on the original system is to break the link and write a new file named 'sym' with the latest contents - but no connection to 'file'.
    I know of no way to keep a link to a *file* as a symlink across updates. But the story is different for *directories*. Unlike ordinary files, directories are normally updated in place (unless you explicit delete and recreate them). So you can do the following:
    1. Create directory 'dir' anywhere you like.
    2. Create symlink 'dirlink' pointing to 'dir' in your Dropbox folder.
    3. Wait for 'dirlink' to appear on all other clients. It will appear as an ordinary directory, not as a symlink. If the original 'dir' had files in it, those will now appear as files on the clients, too.
    4. On each client, rename 'dirlink' to 'dir' *in the place you want it to appear in your directory tree*. (Renaming only works if you are staying not the same device. Otherwise, you need to create 'dir' and move all the files.) This need not be the same on all clients, though it's easier to keep track of if it is.
    5. On each client, create symlink 'dirlink' pointing to 'dir'.
    Now you have a 'dirlink' on each client, which will to Dropbox look like a subdirectory - and it will sync all the files in that "subdirectory". Changes made on any client to any file in 'dir' aka 'dirlink' will be synced to all the other clients as well. Files created or deleted in 'dir' will be created/deleted on every other client as well.
    It's probably easiest to do all this while there are no files in 'dir'. Otherwise, Dropbox sometimes repeatedly syncs the same files until everything eventually settles down.
    The limitations here:
    - Some platforms (e.g., iOS) don't support symlinks. To them, 'dirlink' will just be an ordinary subdirectory.
    - Any time you add a new client, you have to go through the process for that client. Certain reset operations in Dropbox - anything that requires re-syncing every file in the Dropbox folder on a client - will require the same, because Dropbox doesn't know how to *create* symlinks - it'll just create an ordinary subdirectories.
    I've used this configuration for a couple of years. You have to watch out for the reset situations and such, but generally once you have it set up, it "just works".

  • Can't create symbolic link on a cifs mount (on a linux VM 14.10 Ubuntu)

    I created a file share on an azure storage and mounted the share on a VM using:
    # mount –t cifs //ACCOUNT_NAME.file.core.windows.net/SHARE/mnt/DIRECTORY
    -o vers=2.1,username=ACCOUNT_NAME,password=ACCESS_KEY,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777
    Everything works fine except I can't create symlinks inside the share! I get the following error:
    "Operation not supported"
    cifs should support symlinks....I am using a VM with Ubuntu 14.10.Been researching this for 2 hours and no solution as of yet! All suggestions appreciated! 

    Thanks Malar,
    In my opinion, there is something wrong in the smb.conf file of the server. In order to support symbolic links, unix extensions must be disabled there. Also the sfu option needs to be enabled. I tried everything possible on the client (VM) end. The issue
    is clearly from the server

  • Change symbolic link to something else

    Hi everybody.
    this is what i have: Using the "lndir" command in terminal I have a folder full of symbolic links to an external hard drive that is now unconnected. I want to be able to have spotlight index/search this folder so that if there is something on that hard drive i will know about it (its actually going to be nine drives and tons of files). But of course, spotlight will not index or find symbolic links, so what I want to do is run a script or unix command that changes these pointers into some other kind of file that spotlight will see. Same name, same place, but different type.
    Since i already have the physical folder layout of the disconnected drive, it doesnt matter to me if the links are destroyed, i just want to be able to search for a file name and know what drive/folder its in so I can avoid plugging in ten drives in a daisy chain.
    I was wondering if there is a script or unix command i can run that will make a copy of any file that has an "L" type designation or just copy the file name onto a misc other kind of file.
    Alternately, is there a way to change these symbolic links into regular "aliases" that spotlight can search? again it doesnt even matter to me if the aliases point to a dummy location.
    I'm not very good at command line syntax, so if you have any suggestions, please explain in dummy cabbage-head terms that I can replicate. if what i want to do is impossible or doable through some available widget or script, those answers would be super as well. Or if there is a better solution than the "lndir" command that can maybe make the same kind of directory copy but with aliases instead or symbolic links?
    any options or ideas welcome. thansk!

    no, you misunderstand. I do NOT want the files contents to be there (i'm not crazy), i just want the files NAMES to be there and searchable (an offline catalog). They are ALREADY on my home drive in the perfect structure but since they are a file type spotlight wont catalog (being just a symbolic link pointer file) i would like to change the file type to something it can see and thus find. I mean if there was a program or script or shell or something that would look at a file named SHADOWFILE.JPG and made say an empty textfile called SHADOWFILE.JPG.TXT, made the TXT suffix invisible and deleted the original SHADOWFILE.JPG, i would be left with a searchable file name. Or if these pointers can be turned into Aliases (even if they dont point to anything) then spotlight will find them. I know that you can turn an alias into a symbolic link, so is it unreasonable to do the reverse?
    If none of this is possible, I realize I can use standalone external catalogers, but that is just not as elegant as having a single search for both internal and external devices at the same time, basically it would require doing two searches instead of one. I think this is a worthy goal.

  • Mac OS X loses its symbol link/hard link ability.

    I assume people see this thread understand the differences between symbol link(symlink)/alias and hard link, so I don't explain them.
    This is the situation:
    1. I create a alias of "1.jpg" sized in 2MB, the alias' size is 4KB, no problem.
    2. I create a hard link of the same file, the hard link file sized in 2MB, that's correct, but when I check the disk usage, additional 2MB is consumed. Since it consumes disk capacity as much as the original file, then why wouldn't we just copy the original file?
    3. I create a symbolic link too, the soft link file sized in 4KB and appears like an alias in finder with arrow, and it works like an alias, that makes no sense.
    Why I say it works like an alias? Because applications treat it like an alias but symbolic link, they don't recognize symbolic link, they can't write data into it. 

    Hello,
    I don't know what is the cause of your problem, but I have some knowledge on the @ attribute that may help you to solve this problem.
    @ symbol is about attributes on a file.
    To show what is the attribute name, you can try :
    +ls -l@ filename+
    Then, to show the value of the attribute, you can try :
    +xattr -l filename+
    To remove an attribute, you can try :
    +xattr -d attr_name filename+
    Beware, to get the help on xattr you must use :
    +xattr -help+
    Hope that this will help you to determine if this is really the attribute the problem, or this is something other.
    Regards.

  • Itunes disks & symbolic links

    i have a rather large itunes now i use it for lots of tv shows and movies for appletv (and iphone) - up to 1.1TB's!!
    so i now have a disk issue! i have tried a few solutions, i.e. concatenated raid volumes, unionfs, etc. all failed for varying reasons. the new solution is:
    disk 1 --> symbolic link to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
    disk 2 --> symbolic link to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/TV Shows
    disk 3 --> symbolic link to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Movies
    disk 3 is actually a 2-disk concatenated raid volume, but this should not matter
    itunes is auto-managed and copies files to itunes folder. everything works as expected when normally using this file strucure, e.g. adding new movie will put it onto disk 3.
    but as this has only just been created, i would like to consolidate the library. when i do, i get a prompt saying disk 1 does not have enough space (note it doesnt mention that my local profile location)
    what is occurring? does itunes attempt to evaluate the symlink? is my solution possible?
    regards
    jingo_man

    Your solution will not work.
    For reasons unknown iTunes does not follow symbolic links. In fact, it does all kinds of things to avoid them, avoid following them, and does link symbolic links, hard links, or aliases.
    Every time there's a new OS X or iTunes release I give it a try and the results are always the same--if I try to make a TV Shows symbolic link iTunes ignores the link, and creates a TV Shows directory. Even inside the directory, if, for example, I try to make a symbolic link to a particular show or artist I know needs a large amount of space iTunes ignores the symbolic link and creates a directory entry under whatever the main library is set to be.
    About the only thing you can do is create a large, empty raid using new drives and copy everything over to that raid. Of course you would have to recopy everything if you ever add a new drive.
    I can't wait for ZFS to be added as a regular consumer option to OS X just to be able to finally create a unified, ever expandable iTunes library.

  • Why do we need a symbolic link of pfile

    Hi all,
    Why do we require a symbolic link in $ORACLE_BASE/admin/SID/PFILE location for the actual pfile in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs location

    Oracle will only look in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
    However, especially if you have multiple databases, you don't want everything in one directory, and OFA shows you how to set this up neatly.
    But you also don't want multiple copies of the pfile as they will drift apart.
    Solution: a symbolic link.
    BTW : pfiles are obsolete and replaced by spfiles.
    Also: please don't use 'We', if there is no need to. 'You' ,'One' or 'I' will do.

  • SMB Symbolic Links disabled after update to 10.6.4

    I just found out how to fix Access Denied messages for any WIndows share that includes a symbolic link directory. Due to a security issue the default was changed to:
    \[global\]
    wide links = no
    This disables access to symbolic links.
    See http://www.samba.org/samba/news/symlink_attack.html
    I changed it back to yes for now to get it working. Will look into this more when the network is not in use. This should have been noted in the smb.conf file.

    For the non-geeks in the audience. 10.6.4 broke access to smb folders being shared by a 10.6.4 machine. My popcorn hour media stremer would no longer use symbolic links as a means to find all my movies spread out on 2 disks. It could see the links as files and clicking on them gave an error message. In my case these links a symbolic links of the folders on my 2 movie drives, labeled sci-fi, westerns, etc. All the links are in my Movies folder in my main user folder. This is setup to be a shared folder and is accessed as an SMB share with my media streamers.
    Apple was apparently fixing a security issue related to symbolic links but killed the ability to set up and use symbolic links like I need them for my home network media streamers.
    To fix do the following:
    Fixing the symbolic link issue with Samba/SMB access problem in 10.6.4
    
* Open smb.conf on the samba server in your favorite text editor
    put the following in a terminal window:
    sudo nano /etc/smb.conf
    
* Find the global samba settings section under [global] and edit the following line:
    wide links = no
    change to:
    wide links = yes
    This enables access to symbolic links.
    nano is a text editor for the terminal. Use the arrow keys to get to the word no in the above string delete no and type yes.
    The control-x to exit and you will be asked to save the file.
    Hit return to save the modified file, do not choose any of the save options.
    For the terminal editor nano, control is the modifier key in dialogs that looks like a upside-down-superscript v.

  • Looking for 'My Support Cases' link

    Well, posting in this forum resulted in a technician showing up on a Sunday afternoon ... phone service restored. Thanks. However, in one of my postings Verizon says to check 'My Support Cases' link to communicate with them and then locks the post so I cannot respond to ask for more details about the link. I have looked all over the site and cannot find this 'My Support Cases' link. Has anyone else found it?
    Thanks ...

    I guess I must be dumb ... I only found the list of my postings and still find no "My Support Cases' link.   Another Verizon tech replied to one of my forum posting that I haven't checked or responded to some posting in that location ... then doesn't allow 'Reply' ib their posting.
    I still need to update the work order.  A Tech showed up on Sunday night and spent an hour trying to trace lines on the road ad restored service so we thought we were set.  But then during the week we started having issues again with noise, disconnect of calls in the middle of speaking with someone, not being able to make a call and then no dial tone ater that.  I tried to open another repair report on this site today but can't get past that automatic check the line action.  This is so frustrating.
