Switching items from the Podcast  library to the Audiobooks library

I have several Podcast downloads that are actually serialised novels, and would prefer to have these stored in my Audiobooks library.
How can i change either which library they are originally allocated to on download, or (ii) move them from the Podcast library to the Audiobook library after download?
I have tried changing the Genre information etc to no avail. Drag and drop does not work.

How complicated this gets depends on what format the files are. To get into audiobboks section they have to be audible (.aa I think, never bought from iTunes) or AAC (more specifically .m4b extension). Most podcasts are mp3 format. If this is the case then you would have to convert them to m4a format then change extension to m4b.

  • How can I delete an item from the main left column of iTunes?

    I'd like to delete an item from the main left hand column in iTunes (the column containing the main headings LIBRARY, STORE, SHARED, PLAYLISTS etc etc). Under the first heading 'LIBRARY' appear the items Library, Music, Movies, iTunes U, Books, Apps and Ringtones. I'd like to remove the item "Library" from that list - it appears immediately after the heading "LIBRARY" and serves no purpose whatsoever. (Neither does it appear to cause any harm, I must say, just a nuisance.) This item does not appear in any of the iTunes viewing options or controls lists. Neither does it appear in iTunes in the other accounts on my Mac and I have yet to see it any other iTunes on any other Mac.
    I've upgraded since about iTunes 8 assuming the problem would eventually disappear through the upgrades but it hasn’t, even through all the providedupgrade increments available for iTunes.
    I'm assuming it's from something I've installed in my main user account at some stage and it entered this item in the iTunes app. But I can't see how to remove it. The only things I can remember installing are "iTunes Batch Column Renamer" and "Join Together", both if which are just Scripts and which I use fairly regularly, but I don't recall either of them installing that particular item.
    Is there any folder I can navigate to to edit the list of items in that main left hand column of iTunes?
    Many thanks in advance for any help offered.

    on second thought, that you have an item "library" is indeed odd - there shouldn't be.
    suggest you try removing iTunes completely (click here and follow the instructions), then reinstall it using the standalone installer from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/.
    note this will not do anything to your media files, playlists, ratings, etc.
    btw, you didn't install any 3rd party tools like this script:
    Change Hidden iTunes Preferences v2.4 
    This application will allow you to invoke hidden iTunes preferences:
    Show "Library" playlist
    Changing view setting is global
    Allow half-stars in ratings
    Hide "Ping" buttons
    Show/hide arrow links -- to either search the iTunes Store or search your library
    Load complete iTunes Store preview before playing
    Create playlists for purchased song collections
    Play songs while importing or converting
    Create file names with track number
    Maintain grid view for Search results
    Option-click zoom button for Mini Player&
    Show buttons horizontally

  • Remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console

    Hi. 
    I know I have see a post regarding this before, but just wanted to put it out these once again.  I'd like to remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console - specifically My Notifications and Create Change Request.  This is because
    the former allows a user to create notification subscriptions in incorrect Management Packs, and the latter because we are not using Change Management yet.  Does anyone have any information on how to achieve this?
    Cheers

  • Help. Need to remove item from the "open with" menu

    Does anyone know how I can remove an item from the "open with" menu?

    You could try removing the quicktime .pkg files from the receipts folder in the root library.
    The system has to go somewhere to determine eligible applications it can use to open a file.
    Each application would contain its base settings in its receipts file.
    Once you delete the receipt you should delete the application and reinstall it.
    The reinstall will write a new receipts file.
    The receipts file is used by your system when it repairs disk permissions.
    The system does not just add a setting.
    For example if you take a .png file and click on it and look at what can open it you may get a long list.
    If you choose "other" from the get info "open with" menu and have acrobat reader installed in applications, it will show as an application you can choose.
    That application, however, is not in the drop down list.
    If you choose acrobat reader and apply it to the file type, it will show as the default.
    If you then choose another application in the list and apply, Acrobat Reader disappears from the list.
    The system only shows files in the list that advertise to the system that they can read the file type.
    You have a system which is populating the list with legitimate programs that are compatible with the advertised file type.
    It is reading that advertisement for the quicktime application somewhere.
    The configuration is written to each file individually, you can choose to have a single file associated with a particular application or have it apply to all files of that type.
    Check in Spotlight for a copy of the application in another location.

  • Clear Recent Items from the Dock

    When I right click on Preview on the Dock, it shows a list of recently opened files.  A friend of mine needs to remove those for some reason.....  He tried clicking File>Recent Items>Clear Menu and clicking the Apple Icon>Recent Items>Clear Menu and restarting Preview.  This removes Recent Items from the Menu Bar but not from the Dock.  Another problem is the last picture that thats open appears when Preview is started.  Is it possible to disable this or preferably the entire "Resume" feature of Lion?

    This also happened to me and I was going crazy because the items might of been deleted or from a DVD that is no longer mounted.  So this is how I solved it.
    To summarize, you need to delete or rename some files in your local "Library" directory, ie ~/Library/Preferences directory.
    For the iWork apps and Preview.  Rename these following files with a "~" in the beginning or delete it or to be safe, copy to another location:
    "com.apple.iWork.Keynote.LSSharedFileList.plist" to "~com.apple.iWork.Keynote.LSSharedFileList.plist"
    do the same for these files
    com.apple.iWork.Numbers.LSSharedFileList.plist
    com.apple.iWork.Pages.LSSharedFileList.plist
    com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
    One way to do it through the GUI is open finder, go to the "Go" menu and press the "option" button.
    Choose the Library menu item and open the "Preferences" directory.
    Look for the files mentioned above either rename, delete, or move.
    Close the application and see if the recent items still appear when you right mouse click the icon in the Dock.
    If that doesn't work, then logout and log back in.
    Hope this helps or solves your issue.
    I just used this to delete the recenttly opened items on Quicktime that appeared on the dock even though the 'Recently Opened' folder frm the Menu was empty. It worked like a charm.
    Now I still need to quit the Application after deleting the 'Recently Opened' on the Menu bar in order to make the dock recently opened disappear as well, but it works!

  • How can we remove items from the VF04 list?

    We have a long list of items in VF04 that, for various reasons (some process related, some due to errors), are not to be billed. We have looked at applying filters to the list but there is nothing really suitable to hide these individual documents e.g. we could filter out some dates where none of the items on that date are to be billed but other dates have a mix of items we want to bill and others we don't.
    I have done a search of this forum but didn't find a previous topic with a quick and simple method to remove items from the list .
    Is there a method, other than billing them or sorting each issue individually, to permanently remove individual documents from the VF04 list?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    David

    Hi,
    David,
    Download a list of Pending delivers doc form VF04.
    Paste the list in T.Code : VL09 (Delivery reversal) and reverse the delivery.
    Then go to T.Code: VL06G Select the list of deliveries that has been reversed, select/delete all un- wanted deliveries.
    This way you can remove all unwanted pending deliveries forn Billing due list (VF04).
    Thanks & Regards,

  • How can you delete items from the cloud?

    I am trying to delete some items from the cloud but can't figure out how. Does anyone know how.

    You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage > Manage...... on your iOS device. Or System Preferences > iCloud > Manage...... on a Mac.
    You have 3 options......
        1.    Purchase more iCloud storage.
        2.    Delete data or back ups that are being stored in iCloud already.
        3.    Turn off items to be included in the next back up to reduce its size.

  • How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

    If you add an item to a slideshow, you'll usually see 2 entries for that image in the assets panel - one represents the thumbnail, and the other represents the larger 'hero' image.
    It sounds like you may have added the same image to your slideshow twice. You can select one of the hero images or thumbnail images in your slideshow and use the delete key to remove it. Then the extra 2 entries in the assets panel should disappear.

  • Can't remove items from the selectMenu

    I am using selectMenu as:
    <a4j:region selfRendered="true"  id="text">
                <h:selectOneListbox id="symbol" value="#{user.name}">
                  <f:selectItems value="#{user.temp_list}" />
              </h:selectOneListbox>
    <a4j:commandButton action="#{user.getData}" reRender="symbol" value="Get"/>
    </a4j:region>temp_list has following three values when page loads:
    temp_list.add(new SelectItem("Sunday"));
    temp_list.add(new SelectItem("Monday"));
    temp_list.add(new SelectItem("Tuesday"));Now in user.getData i want to remove items one by one based on the selection made by the user. The code is:
    temp_list.remove(0);
    this.setTemp_list(temp_list);But the problem is that if user selects Sunday for example, it remove it from the list but next time when user select Monday it removes monday but BRING BACK SUNDAY AGAIN IN THE LIST. Why is it so?

    I don´t understand you.Actually i was asking about the code which i mentioned in my last post.
    Okay then what could be the solution? What my thinking is that calling list.remove actually removes the item from the list permenantly, isn't it? If so then why does it showing me again in the selectMenu?

  • Can I remove items from the Services menu?

    I think the subject line says it all: can I remove items from the Services menu? I have a number of items in the Services menu that I never use and I would like to make the menu shorter to make it easier to access the items that I do use.

    There are a couple of things you could try. There's an application called Service Scrubber that is supposed to do this. But the web page says it's for 10.4, though it says it might work on 10.3
    Alternatively, you can edit the Info.plist or Info-macos.plist file in each application bundle to remove its service from the Services menu. This post at Mac OS X Hints has a pretty detailed description of how to do it. I tried this on my iMac running 10.3.9 and it worked just fine.
    Don't know about the Service Scrubber app, but if you edit the plist files, you'll need to log out and log back in before the changes take effect.
    Also, if you decide to edit the files by hand, I'd suggest just renaming NSServices by adding an "x" to the front or something, rather than deleting the item completely. That makes the changes easier to reverse.
