Using 3rd party application to get itune songs from PC to MacBook

Until Dec. my iTunes account was on my PC. I had downloaded 1200 songs from a friends hard drive into the itunes account and then into my iPod. I no longer use the PC and now have a MacBook where I have set up my iTunes account. I want to add new songs to my iPod without erasing those original 1200 songs. Does anyone have experience in this?

When you first connect your ipod you will get a message to say your iPod is not synced with the library. Do NOT allow it to create an immediate association otherwise it will wipe your iPod. You will have to authorise your Mac to play the music first - if your friend had the iTunes account you will have to ask him/her to do this for you. Also, if you tick the box that says manually manage music and videos. This should allow you to use your ipod as a disk drive. Not sure how helpful this will be but give it a try.

Use extrnl hard drive to move iTunes songs from dying Dell to new iMac G5

I'm about to buy an iMac G5. On my current Dell, I store my iTunes music on an external hard drive.
When I get the iMac up and running, will I be able to simply unplug the external hard drive from the Dell, plug it into the iMac, and tell iTunes on the iMac to look to the hard drive for all the music. Is it that simple? If not, I'm unsure how to shift my 11 or 12 GB of music to the iMac...
Thank you.

Sendal hello,

Getting chapters from PPro 2.0 into Encore 2.0 while using 3rd party encoder

Placing chapters in Premiere is a HUGE time saver. However, I also like to use 3rd party software to encode my videos to MPEG (Canopus ProCoder2.0). This process loses the Chapter information that the .avi file carries. Is there any way to get the chapter information into Encore while still using ProCoder?

Ok, thanks. I really wish Adobe would allow users to import and export chapter information. That would greatly increase my workflow. The thing that kills me is that in Encore 1.0, the chapters were connected to the timeline, not the video. So I could drop the AVI file into a timeline in Encore to create the chapter points, then delete it and place my MPEG video in its place. But Adobe got rid of this capability in 1.5.

3rd party application for album artwork?

Are there any GREAT 3rd party applications for automatically bringing in album art to iTunes? I've got a bunch of old music that the automatic function within iTunes is not getting anything for. I even tried to clean up some of the info (i.e. make sure it had artist, song name, etc in proper fields), but nothing.
If that or another app would correct song data also (probably asking a bit much) that would be awesome. I see where some of my very old stuff from back in the MP3 days will have Artist Name-Song Name as the title.
Any help is appreciated. I dont have a week to do this manually!

MP3Freaker would be your best bet. I've used others but MP3Freaker works flawlessly, and allows you to do three songs for free to show how it works, and how well. It's $23 but it saved me hours of painstaking work going through my 5500 songs

3rd party application sync failures -- BES policy?

I have a BB curve (8310, ATT v4.2.2.170) which is synch'd via BES to corporat email/etall. I have the BB desktop manager installed on a PC. The BBDM can: install & remove applications, add/remove multimedia (songs, photos), access the storage card. When tryign to use the BBDM to synchronize 3rd party application data (aka, a password keeper like SplashID or Ascendo Data vault), the syncronization fails. I did install BBDM to use the internet service, not redirector.
My question: are their policies which my IT group might have set that prevent the synch of 3rd party data. We tried changing the "allow 3rd party to use USB" to true, that did not help. If the security policy forces data encryption on the device, could that prevent the sync from happening? The desktop all looks correct (right BB id, etall), and the app on the BB think's its been synchd, but the data never moves between the two and I get error messages akin to "Synchronization Failed; Please try again. Technical details: tableSystem=NULL" (this from SplashId).
Thanks

SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching

Hi,
We're getting ready to tackle the phenomena known as Java patching, and I was wondering if I could get your personal preference; SCCM Software Updates (and SCUP) vs. Application Management for 3rd Party Application Patching?
I probably should give a little background on my environment; It's a university atmosphere, so unless it's policy, you have to ask nicely...can't tell people to do things they don't want to; multiple version of required versions of Java for what ever reason,
which need to be identified, grouped together, and then upgrade as much as possible without breaking their old applications.
I was thinking that Application Management probably made more sense where it is more robust, especially for removing multiple installs of Java on a single system, but Software Updates/SCUP looks like it was built for this type of patching, so I'm a bit confused
why SCCM would have two components which essentially did the same thing.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Bill

For Java version management specifically you can already achieve a lot by using the Application Model in CM12.
You can define supersedence between the different versions, just make sure to opt for uninstall of the older version when defining it.

Opening and closing 3rd party applications ??

Does opening and closing 3rd party applications with the click of the home button actually close the application, or, does it continue running in the back ground ?
I noticed most of the 3rd party application don't have a close/exit option, and wonder if opening and closing several applications with the home button can cause the many crashes I have read from fellow iPhone owners ?

Clicking the Home button may close the application depending on the application itself. Some applications that use the network may close when going to the Home screen. To force quit any application, hold the Home button down for about 6 seconds until the Home screen comes up.

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

RFC( SAP R/3) to XI to 3rd party Application

Hi All,
we have an 3rd party application to which we want to send some data from R/3. We are using XI as the middleware.The process has to be triggered from R/3 side. We are not using Idoc's here. We are planing to use the RFC through which the data transfer has to be done.
We are creating a BAPI with import, export and tables parameters.Basically the RFC is in SAP R/3 System.We need to send the data in the table to XI.
In this case how the RFC destination has to be created and how the RFC to be called in the R/3 system to export the Data to XI system.
Answers are highly appreciated.
Thanx and Regards,
Durga.

Hi,
<i>>>>In this case how the RFC destination has to be created</i>
Check this blog by Michal it shows you step by step
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/29/configuring-the-sender-rfc-adapter--step-by-step
<i>>>>how the RFC to be called in the R/3 system to export the Data to XI system.</i>
Hope you are aware of normal way of calling function
CALL Function "FM Name"
Export
Tables
in this case the RFC should be called as follows
CALL Function "FM Name" destination <SM59 Destination>
Export
Tables
The above is for Sync call and if you want to make a Async call that is you are not expecting any reponse from the target then
CALL Function "FM Name" IN BACKGROUND TASK destination <SM59 Destination>
Export
Tables
Thanks,
Prakash

Adobe Reader 9.x does not retain preferences when called by a 3rd party application.

I have an in-house application that utilizes .pdf and .xfdf files. We use Adobe 9.x when viewing these files and when I open them natively from Windows explorer they Display In Browser and all my Trust Manager preferences are intact. If I use the 3rd party application to open the files they Display In Browser but none of my TrustManager settings are present and I am forced to trust the document each time I reopen Adobe. If I leave Adobe Reader open for the duration of the session that I am using my 3rd party application though the Trust Settings for the document I loaded are present but as soon as I close Adobe they are gone until I Trust the document when opening it again. Any insight as to why this might be and how I could rectify the issue would be appreciated.

We are using 9.1.1.
We notice that this option is no loger available in this version. The below option will keep the form data available even if you exist out from the sessions.
Keep Forms Data Temporarily Available On Disk
Retains forms data in the Internet browser if you briefly go to
another web page and then click Back to return to the PDF form.

Any links i open from 3rd party applications do not open in firefox.

To be more precise, when i click a link, Firefox does open however it does not visit the URL. It simply opens a new session. I have started Firefox in safe mode and the problem occurs, i have reset firefox to default preferences and the problem still persists. I can see no problems in the setting of Firefox itself and have already tried all the fixes available.
I am using Firefox 29.0.1 on Fedora 20 64x

As i stated, when i click links from 3rd party applications, such as skype; a youtube link or something similar. Firefox opens a new session however it does not visit the clicked url
