Want to import/transfer ratings of songs, etc. Can't figure out how.
I changed computers to use the new one as my primary source for iTunes use. Music and everything else imported / transferred, BUT the rating for each song, etc., DID NOT transfer.
Is this possible or do I have to re-rate all songs???
How can I transfer the ratings?
Thank you.
How did you transfer your music ?
You must have a unique iTunes folder (by consolidating your music library or maintaining it ordered), then Folder>Library>Export the library.
Then you save your iTunes folder (the one containing all your music, films, etc.) and transfer it to your new PC.
On your new PC, select the right iTunes music folder (where all your music is) and import your library file (Folder>Library>Import Library).
It worked pretty fine for me (twice) although some smart playlists must be reconfigured, and the Genius and iTunes DJ playlists are also added as normal playlists. You just get rid of them both and then everything should be OK.
My ratings, number of plays, etc have been transferred without a problem.
Good luck

I want new tabs to open to google which is my homepage. Right now they open to yahoo which I have never used. How do I change it to make the tabs open to my homepage?
Firefox opens a new tab by default with a blank page (about:blank).<br />
If that isn't happening for you then an extension has changed that.

Restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup to get rid of that garbage which removed all built-in secuirty included with iOS on your iPhone.
If your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes, check this link.

I have deleted my browser app, and now I can't figure out how to set it so that when I press the web button, it will automatically use firefox instead if chrome
You can go to '''Tools''' >> '''Options''' >> '''Advanced''' >> '''General''' the last option if you check it, always that you start Firefox, it will check if it is the default browser :

How do you get songs into a Smart Playlist...? Also, when I select the music tab on top, there is no iphone button or anything that says sync to iPhone. That's where I get confused
When you set up a Smart Playlist, it automatically populates the list with songs. You don't have to do anything. Now, you may not have set it up properly, meaning your set up fails to recognize any songs.
If you just want to put music in a Playlist, just create one, give it a name. Then drag the music from the "music" list to the playlist. It copies the information there. And when you sync the Playlist to your iPhone, all the music goes.
It's truly easy, but there is a bit of a learning curve until you're good at it. Keep asking questions here, everyone will help you. But do read the Apple documents, they lay out pretty straightforward. -
I am trying to transfer songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. I also want to transfer the songs I have back in to iTunes. My hard drive went out on my computer and I lost all of my songs, except for on my iPod. I have an iPhone as well and did an update and it wiped out all of my songs. Someone please help me.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion. use your backup copy to put everything back. -
I want to transfer an audiobook and a movie from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone 4S, and can't figure out how. I went to "Help" and it said after connecting the two devices I should "Click Apps," but I can't find anything labeled "Apps" to click. Help?!!
If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it). -
I have updated to iTunes 10 and now my unchecked songs are playing... I don't want this and can't figure out how to have it like it was before (not playing unchecked songs). Please help! I leave the unchecked songs in there b/c there will come a point in time where I want to listen to these songs but right now I don't.
yes, 10.3.1, iTunes already restarted, menu settings already like that and still it will play all unchecked songs (including the checked songs of course). Why even have check and unchecked if the program is going to play all of them anyway?!
thanks for responding though... -
I can't figure out how to sync my songs I downloaded to my itunes?
I downloaded songs to itunes on my computer. I can't figure out how to sync them to my ipod. It says to click devices and pull up my ipod, but there is no "devices" listed, though I have registered, etc.?
Connect your iPod to the computer with the provided cable.
Open up iTunes.
You should see your iPod in the Device list.
Click on it.
Choose what you want to sync to your iPod and then click Sync. -
Latest iTunes, can't figure out how to select a movie to transfer to iPad
From older versions of iTunes I used to select the device>movies and select which movies/videos/playlists/etc from my library I wanted transferred, then sync.
Now going to movies only shows which movies are currently on the iPad; I can't see how to remove or add to that list.
I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow and planned to copy over a season of a TV show or a movie or two, but now I can't figure out how.
Need answer quickly if possible so I can sync overnight. ThanksTransfer Manually

Connect your iPad to your computer. If you have Wi-Fi synchronization enabled, your iPad will connect to your computer automatically, provided the computer and iPad are sharing the same Wi-Fi network. If you do not have Wi-Fi synchronization enabled, connect your iPad to your computer using the USB dock cable that came with the device.
Step 2
Launch the iTunes application on your computer and click your iPad under the Devices heading.

I am new to Apple!
Ah, new to routers too.
Perhaps it's best to have a local computer support person come set you up?
To explain everything would require writing a book here.
But this is what you want basically.
Router, new Wireless N, firmware updated.
1: Two accounts, one admin, one guest Internet access. Random +30 plus character lenght passwords each preferred.
(guest password to max password length of any iDevices)
2: Encryption: WPA2 AES. No Ping. No remote access. No MAC filtering. Visible.
3: Guest access on devices and computers only. Passwords written down and stored.
4: OpenDNS preferred but not mandatory.
If you get OpenDNS, you can log into their website for free and set parental controls on things like inappropriate sites for children. So whatever device is used on your network can't access a large portion of those sites (nothing is perfect) by most users who are not technical oriented.
What your doing now is running the bare bones unsecure router which can be used harmfully against you.
Even a Apple Airport router has to be very well secured. The defautl cd and out of the box setup is not a secure solution. -
I recently deleted iTunes off my computer by accident, when I reinstalled it I got the new version and I can't figure out how to get my music to store on my iTunes to transfer from my iPhone to my iTunes. I goal is to get my iPod filled with the music that I have stored on my iPhone and figured the only way to do so is to use iTunes as my transfer hub. Any suggestions?
Wow you're kind of a iTunes bully. Dude the reason I am asking for advice and help is I am completely computer ********. If I knew the answer I wouldn't be asking. Anyways. Question to anyone else.
If I have no music on my iTunes at all and no music on my computer, hard drive or any other version of storage yet there is a playlist on my iPhone. While my iPhone is plugged into my PC and my iTunes is up, is there a way to swap my playlist from my iPhone to my iTunes? Directly? Without downloading some new media source or backing up my old media source from my history. The reason everything was deleted (iTunes and media source) was due to the size of everything and space it was requiring. I am simply trying to get 233 songs from A to B.
I have tried magic but it is not working.

I go to HOME
I go to MY WISH LIST
I see the songs I want to buy and the price at the end. If I scoll down from the price ... there is no BUY OPTION.

Is this because it is in my wish list. should I just start over. and go one song at a time .?? -
I keep multiple photos in a desktop folder to be quickly accessed by using Preview. But when I try to open ONE photo, it opens multiple photos. Can't figure out how to display just the single one that I select. OS 10.7.2
This is the resume feature of Lion. The last state of the application is saved when quitting (i.e last pictures viewed in Preview, last videos viewed in Quicktime etc).
You can switch it off for Preview by copy and pasting the following in to the terminal application
defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false
