Two music folders with some of the same music.

How do I combine two music folders (one is on my pc, the other is on my external HD). The external HD is for back up, but I have since added 7gb of music on my PC. Short of going folder by folder to copy and drag, is there an easier way to combine the folders with out doubling up what is in both spots?

IF you are going from PC to external then drag the whole library to the external drive and andwer no when asked if you want to copy over existing files. That's how I do it. No duplication and only the new songs actually copy.

  • HT202213 my husband already has an i-pod account.  I had also set one up for myself, as neither of us realized we could use home sharing.  what do we do to fix this so we can share instead of both paying for some of the same music ect.?

    I gave my husband an i-pad one Christmas...a year later, he gave me one for my birthday.  Neither of us is a techie, and we never realized we could share through a home account the music we like, so we just purchased separatly, often for the same music.  Now, finally, we know we could have shared but how do we do this with two separate accounts already set up? 
    also, I have a desktop windows 7-64 bit and he has a year old Mac laptop.  Will this cause problems in setting up a home sharing system?  WE both have  i-pod  nano's.

    I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
    VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
    1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
    2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi.

  • Can I have two identical PCs with clones of the same hard drive?

    This all started when I had a problem with my first pc, a gateway laptop, would not wake up from sleep due to, supposedly, a driver problem. I didn't want to send it off for my free, under-warrantee, repair and be without a computer for however long that
    would take. So I bought another one and took it to a local dealer to clone the hard drive of the first one to put on the new one.
    This created a number of odd problems which eventually I figured out had something to do, it seemed, with Microsoft not allowing two identical machines to exist like that. I only plan to use one, the other one being exclusively for backup or in case something
    happened to the first. But I think the problems occurred when I tried to switch back and forth, to do some texting.
    Is there a way I can accomplish this?
    Thanks.

    Until Windows 7, it was possible to use two identical PCs with same clone. Provided, both the PCs must be legally licensed to use the Windows operating system (version as well as edition) and of same OEM, model and spec. This is possible because, the product
    keys are common for all the PCs of same OEM build (if preinstalled, and the installed product key is different from the one mentioned in COA). This made OEM builders to distribute to more PCs than the license agreement, which is impossible for Microsoft to
    find out. To solve this issue, Microsoft changed the licensing structure from Windows 8 - embedding the product key in BIOS. So, here, only the installation is provided and the product keys are not common for all the PCs even if they are of the same OEM build.
    Therefore, cloning fails here. And naturally, as Team Zigzag and EC Ltd say, same product key can't be used for more than one PC.
    As to restore the PC in case of an emergency, you can perform a backup of the existing installed software and user files, which can be restored later (File History in Windows 8). The following links may be helpful:

    Hi Hamden,
    Could we get a little more information about your setup as it will help narrow down the issue?
    - What network interface cards (NIC) are you using?
    - What cameras are you using?
    - Are we running the cameras through a network or directly connecting them to the computer?
    - Can we see each camera when plugged in individually?
    - It sounds like you said that you are using a static IP address, but I wanted to confirm this.
    - Can we see both NICs in Windows Device Manger?

  • My ipod won't sync music because it says ipod does not support the music, although it previously downloaded the same music onto the ipod

    Newest ipod gen,
    My ipod won't sync about 89% of my library because 'it doesn't support the song' but I previously had the songs on my ipod, downloaded from the same computer. Itunes on my computer had issues and I'm now re syncing all music. How do I get my music back on my ipod if Itunes says it can't be synced?
    Thanks!

    In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

  • What happends when you give 2 groups with some of the same members different authorizations for a document

    Hello,
    I'm doing my internship at a litte Telekom company. I'm investigating how they can use MS SharePoint as their central place to put projectinformation. Now i've been thinking what happends when i do the following:
    Make one document library
    Add 2 groups to the Active Directory, group "A" with all the employees and group "B" with only four people working on a project. When i add a document to the document library and set the authorizations for the document as
    follows:
    Group B: Read/Write
    Group A: Read
    Does the people from group B still be able to edit the document, because they are also in group A?
    I don't have a test environment to test this myself.
    Why i want to know this? The company want's one place to place all their documents with projectinformation. This information is about different projects. You only wan't that people can change the specific document when they are working on the specific project
    where the document belongs to.  

    You get the union of permissions, so if one group allows access and the other not, you will get the union of both and therefore access. Of course, you can break security settings per library/folder or document, and specify new settings,
    if you need too.

    There are two folders in the My Music folder dedicated to iTunes music:
    •My Music > AppleReceive
    and
    •My Music > iTunes > iTunes Media > Music 
    They share many of the same titles, although some duplicates may be mp3 and m4a. Confusingly, neither format seems to be exclusive to the AppleReceive or iTunes Media folder.
    I'm reluctant to playing the "delete one and see what happens" game.
    Any theories/suggestions?

    No idea what this folder is. Sounds like it is something you created & named.
    •My Music > iTunes > iTunes Media > Music 
    This is the default folder iTunes uses for music.

  • Is it possible to have two different iTunes versions installed, by just using a different install folder on Win7, pointing at the same music resource?

    I really don't like the new version of iTunes, with CoverFlow removed. Makes navigation very poor IMO.
    Can I go ahead and just install an older version with CoverFlow still present in another Win7 folder, and point it at the same music resource?
    Very poor decision by iTunes to omit this popular preference - and unless its put back in quickly, can see peopl leaving when they feel their config has gone.

    I don't really want the hassle of uninstalling the 'latest' (****) version, as it might mess my system, plus, at some point, this will be upgraded, and I reckon with CoverFlow put back in! SO, I would upgrade this as my 'main install'.
    The older one, I would use temporarily, until put CoverFlow back into its newer releases, if you see what I mean.
    So, my question is implicit and more specific - can I have two different version installed, in different folders/locations, without causing conflicts I don't wanna uninstall the new one just to put the old one back on.
    Very bad that iTunes put me in this position, really.

  • How can I share only the same music with multiple iTunes accounts

    Hello
    I hope someone can help. [I am using Windows Vista (Unfortunately J) and iTunes 10]
    I am trying to share the same music library with multiple iTunes accounts. Basically, I want to know if there is a way to automatically upload to other libraries when importing new music into my library, vice versa. [Better information below]
    Me, my sister and my dad all use iTunes (on different iTunes accounts), and before now we used to have are own music on our own windows user. Due to many duplicates and a loss of hard drive space I have brought an external hard drive and organised all the music.
    It was all going well - I first populated all the music onto my iTunes, exported the library, and then imported it on both the other users. However! Because this is only a copy of the library, when I try to import a new CD, it will not show up on there’s until I “Add File to Library”! Originally I thought about using the same library however we each have are own apps etc, that we don’t want to share.
    If you need anymore information please ask!

    Hello roaminggnome
    Unfortunately the support is down at the moment, I will have a better look later. I did go though the Apple support previously, however I found nothing that worked.
    The first thread I came across was “Home Sharing” however no mater what I did, it did not appear in the iTunes sharing list (I did go though the “Show Sharing Networks” support as well)
    Secondly, I saw “Using A Single Library With Multiple Accounts On The Same PC” (Something like that) but all this did was let us share the same music location, if I was to rip extra music, it will not show in there library

  • I have two itunes accounts on two different computers, can i merge the accounts so i can then have the same music on both ipod and iphone?

    i have two itunes accounts one for each of my two computers, can i merge them so that i can have the same music on my ipod and iphone,
    it is all so confusing i need help!!!

    You can't currently merge accounts and the content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it, though you can have more than one account authorised on the same computer's iTunes via Store > Authorise This Computer. As only one account can be actually logged in at a time (Store > Sign In / Sign Out) for purchasing or re-downloading/viewing past purchases, you may want to use just the one account for future purchases.

    Why can't two different users use Itunes on the same computer with different log ins

    They can, but not at the same time.
    If one user left iTunes running, and another user tries to use iTunes from a different Windows user ID, that second user will get an error message.  If they really want to use iTunes, they either have to beg the first user to log in and close iTunes, or else they have to restart the computer.
    If you are asking the technical reason why, it is something about context switching.

  • Can I use the same music file for two accounts to be able to set up two different iTunes accounts?

    I would like to set up two different Itunes accounts on my mac.  I would like to have different accounts for my wife and I so that our devices have different accounts/contacts/email and stuff but we would like to use the same music library.  Can I set the different itunes to go to the same file to see music?  Or could I copy the music file and give the copy to the second itunes account?  I could set it up and authorize the music like for another user?  Is any of this possible?

    Hello 19firedude
    Try moving the entire iTunes Media folder to the Shared folder on your Mac and then in iTunes preferences, change the location of that folder to line it up. Then all you have to do in another user is follow the second set of steps to get that shared properly. Check out the article below for more detailed instructions.
