Trying to make a text file of ITunes library

I'm trying to make a list of my itunes library in any type of text file (word, notebook, notepad,etc). My ex sent me an old library this way just so that I could see what I already had at his place so I wouldn't duplicate things. How do I do this??

In iTunes, use View > Options to show the fields you want to show. Then Edit > Select All, then Edit Copy.
Open Word and use *Paste Special > Unformatted Text.*
Try it first on a short playlist so you can see how it works.

Trying to make a php file work with my email form

Hello,
Going slightly mad trying to link my php file with my html and actually getting it to work.
It (the php file) keeps coming up with a syntax error on line 37 - code hinting may not work etc etc but there is no error from what I can see - can anyone else point out the obviously to me? This is driving me around the bend!
my code:
<?php
/*Subject and Email Variables */
    $emailSubject = 'Website Form';
    $webMaster = '[email protected]';
/* Gathering Data Variables */
    $nameField = $_POST['name'];
    $addressField = $_POST['address'];
    $telephone1Field = $_POST['telephone1'];
    $telephone2Field = $_POST['telephone2'];
    $emailField = $_POST['email'];
    $name2Field = $_POST['name2'];
    $ageField = $_POST['age'];

</div>

</html>
EOD;
echo "$theResults";
?>

Line 37 is this:
    $success = mail{$webMaster, $emailSubject,$body, $headers};
It should be this:
    $success = mail($webMaster, $emailSubject, $body, $headers);
Also the header for the From: is this:$headers = "From: $email\r\n"; but I don't see the variable defined for $email
Also you should know about email injection. Someone could inject your headers and add additional BCC: addresses to send emails to many undisclosed recipients through your mail script. You'd be using your script to turn your server into a host for spam! Sanitize your fields to prevent injection attacks! Security should be the firt priority followed by functionality. If it's unsecure it shouldn't function

Trying to make .mov audio file from Mac workable on PC

So I took some files off of a Mac that I believe were imported directly from a mini DV tape. The files on the Mac were listed as .mov. Now when i open the drive up containing the files on a PC, they have no extension. I converted the larger file containing the video and managed to make it usable. The smaller file, obviously containing the audio, is proving to be an issue. I tried renaming it .mov and importing into Premiere, but it doesnt work in there. I tried converting it with audio converter programs and it just makes a 0 byte file. If anyone knows how I'd be able to make this usable that'd be great.

I do not have a Mac, so not 100% sure of this... but
On Windows, capturing from miniDV tape creates a SINGLE file of the DV AVI flavor with an AVI file extension
As far as I know, a tape captured via Mac also creates a SINGLE file, containing DV AVI inside a MOV wrapper
If you have 2 files, with video in one and audio in the other, my understanding is that those files are not direct captures from tape... something else was done to the original file to then create 2 files
But, as I said, I don't have a Mac... so maybe someone else who does have a Mac and captures from miniDV will add to this discussion
Back to the Windows side... what version of Quicktime do you have installed?
In general, MOV files will open in PPro-Windows if you have Quicktime installed
As far as no extension... that COULD be a Windows configuration issue, since it is possible to tell Windows to "hide" file extensions
Finally, exactly what is inside that MOV wrapper?

Very new to Java, trying to make a jar file run on WM6

Ok so i downloaded this java progam that is supposed to work on "java-enabled" phones. So i have windows mobile 6, which is able to run java but i think its limited to the browser. when i try to run it on a virtual java machine i recieve the following error.
java.lang.Exception: No Main-Class attribute in \My Documents\TrafficPilot.jar
at java.lang.VMMainThread$1.run(VMMainThread.java)
at java.lang.VMThread.run(VMThread.java:120)
JVM exit
what is needed to make this work? or is it even possible?

Hi, welcome to the Sun Java forums.
Pester the person who gave you the JAR, s/he did something wrong.
Pass this information on to them:
Add a MANIFEST.MF file in the JAR's META-INF directory (all names case-sensitive) and put this line in it, with two Enters after it:
Main-Class: mypackage.MainClassName
Though if the JAR contains an applet (which would explain why it only works in a browser), it might not have a main class.

How to make an audio file on Dreamweaver not auto play?

hi,
ive been trying to make my audio file on dreamweaver not play when the webpage is opened.
i have tired the 'autoplay, false' however this dosent seem to work for me. im using Dreamweaver CS6
im hoping for some help as this is becoming frustrating!
and i am using a music file which has been downloaded!

At a minimum, you need MP3 and OGG audio files. If you don't have them, use the online converter below: http://media.io/
With an HTML5 doc type, your code should look like this:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>HTML5 Audio Demo</title>

</head>
<body>
<p>This works in all modern browsers. </p>
<audio controls>
<source src="path/yourSong.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
<source src="path/yourSong.mp3" type="audio/mp3">
<p>Your browser doesn't support audio.</p>
</audio>
</body>

I am trying to make a pdf of a file and I need to get the file size to be no bigger than 10MB. What is the best way to do this

I am trying to make a pdf of a file and I need to get the file size to be no bigger than 10MB. Even when I save it, the image quality at minimum the file size is 10.9 MB. What is the best way to do this

@Barbara – What purpose is that PDF for? Print? Web?
If web purpose, you could convert CMYK images to sRGB. That would reduce the file size as well.
A final resort to bring down file size is:
1. Print to PostScript
2. Distill to PDF
That would bring file size down even more. About 20%, depending on the images and other contents you are using, compared with the Acrobat Pro method. If you like you could send me a personal message, so we could exchange mail addresses. I could test for you. Just provide the highres PDF without any downsampling and transparency intact. Best provide a PDF/X-4.
I will place the PDF in InDesign, print to PostScript, distill to PDF.

How to make a vector into a shaper of transparency on a layer rather than shape of layer?

I'm working on a drawing that somehow I've created a layer on -- all blue, that has what looks like a vector mask
over it, but the vector mask, instead of shaping the layer, creates a transparancy in the layer.
And I don't know how to reproduce this effect!
Every time I create a vector mask, it shapes the layer.
If I take that vector looking mask on that layer, and try to copy it to another layer -- it shapes the layer!
If I copy it back to the original layer -- it shapes the original layer...
So there's something about the vector mask that says the shape of the layer is everything on the 'outside' of the vector.
How in the heck!? The 'invert' button is not available when you go into 'masks' and look at the vector masks.
So how might I recreate this type of transparency mask? It's driving me crazy, cuz there it is -- just like I want it, but I can't
reproduce it! I've tried dup'ing the blend settings on the layer-- but they don't seem to have an effect.
Ideas?

Thanks!
I looked through the reference docs and couldn't find anything on how to do this. Is it in the reference docs anywhere, do you know? Or is just another one of those things that people learn, but Adobe doesn't document.
I can see if someone has 'grown up w/photoshop' and realizes what tools are "orthogonal" to other tools of those, which can have their settings altered to do something meaninful with the primary tool, it could be a powerful tool (and is touted as being so), but if you don't know the interconnects, it doesn't seem like they are well documented in the reference manual.
I wonder if Adobe might consider having someone like Grinder and Bandler** write a manual to bring people 'into' the photoshop world -- to
give people an awareness of which tools were orthogonal and retrain someone's mind to think in terms of building up an effect by combining different aspects of orthogonal tools. I wonder if it would even be possible to write such a book...(just some late sunday musings).

Trying to make a file alias, but I'm stuck!

I've come up with 3 ways to do the same thing, and none of them work..
I want a droplet where I can drop a file (this case, a photo) and then an alias is created in another specified folder on the desktop. I have a hundreds of photos to go thru and i want to have a shortcut to the ones that are approved, so I can go back later and photoshop them. I don't want to double up on the photos and I want to keep the structure they're in now, so I don't want to move them.
Where am I going wrong with any one of these...??
*Script 1*
on open draggeditems
tell application "Finder"
set draggeditem to theFile
make new alias of file in folder "Approved" of folder "Desktop" of folder "kit" of folder "Users" of startup disk to theFile
end tell
end open
Returns: The variable theFile is not defined.
*Script 2*
on open draggeditems
tell application "Finder"
set draggeditems to input
set alias of the input to make new alias file at folder "Approved" of folder "Desktop" of folder "kit" of folder "Users" of startup disk to input
end tell
end open
Returns: The variable input is not defined.
*Script 3*
on open draggeditems
tell application "Finder"
set sourcefiles to thisFile(draggeditems)
repeat with thisFile in sourcefiles
tell application "Finder" to reveal item thisFile
set thisFile to thisFile as alias
set alias of file in folder "Approved" of folder "Desktop" of folder "kit" of folder "Users" of startup disk to thisFile
end repeat
end tell
end open
Returns: Can't continue thisFile.
I realise there's a trend showing here, but I can't seem to break it..

The errors are fairly straightforward when you realize what's going on.
In scenario 1:
on open draggeditems
so 'draggeditems' is a list of the files that were passed to your script.
Two lines later you say:
set draggeditem to theFile
So now you're trying to set 'draggeditem' to 'theFile', but nowhere in your script is theFile defined. Hence the error.
I'm assuming you want to extract each file from the list of draggeditems, in which case you want something like:
<pre class=command>repeat with theFile in draggeditems</pre>
so now 'theFile' contains a reference to each file in turn. From there you can make an alias to it:
<pre class=command>make new alias to file theFile at folder "Approved" of (path to Desktop)</pre>
So, in all your script should look more like:
on open draggedItems
repeat with theFile in draggedItems
  tell application "Finder"
   make new alias to file theFile at folder "Approved" of (path to Desktop)
  end tell
end repeat
end open</pre>

You need to use quotes.
