What is the best product for using itunes only?

I am considering buying a laptop / notebook / ipad or whatever for using itunes only.  The goal would be to add all cd's to the product and then increase my collection via downloads only going forward.
Can anyone recommend the best product for this please?  I have an ipod nano and I'm new to the iphone, so I'm an Apple convert, although I'd consider a non-Apple product too (sorry Apple!).
Budget is tight!
Thanks in advance

Without a bit more info, it's hard to answer your question.
How many CD's do you intend to keep on the PC/Mac/iPad as an iPad has a maximum storage of aprox 55Gb's for the top model, whereas even a basic PC laptop is likely to have 150Gb plus of space. Plus you are going to need a PC/Mac to copy the CD's in the first place, unless you intend to buy all your music from the iTunes store.
For me I would look at either a MacBook if you can go to the £1000 price bracket, or look at a MacMini and cheap screen then transfer the music to your iPod/iPhone or sadly from a price point of view you may have to go the Windows route as a basic laptop will start at £400

    What is the best product for keeping my mac pro running at optimal speed?

    Enough RAM. More than just so there are no pageouts.
    A fast small SSD for boot system drive that is only OS and apps and 50% free
    Backup clones of your system and data plus TimeMachine
    Avoid security suites from 3rd parties and other would be helpers (unless instructed to for a specific need and purpose).
    Replace and update older components. could be graphic card, no longer suffices wtih Lion, or causes heat and dust. And make sure that the fans cool the system properly. May need to boost the low default fan speed profile and that is one utility that can be a must. Also monitor system temp readings.
    Don't jusst idly restart after a crash or freeze, use Lion Recovery Mode and Safe Boot instead.
    Make backup clone before making updates and changes to your system.

  • What is the best practice for using the Calendar control with the Dispatcher?

    It seems as if the Dispatcher is restricting access to the Query Builder (/bin/querybuilder.json) as a best practice regarding security.  However, the Calendar relies on this endpoint to build the events for the calendar.  On Author / Publish this works fine but once we place the Dispatcher in front, the Calendar no longer works.  We've noticed the same behavior on the Geometrixx site.

  • HT1229 what is the best method for using a iphoto with an external hard drive for greater capacity?

    what is the best method for using a iphoto with an external hard drive for greater capacity?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

    Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

  • What is the best subscription for use in US and Au...

    I regularly travel between US and Australia.  I have postal addresses in both locations and credit cards from both countries.  So I can purchase from either location.
    I want to be able to make calls to US land lines and Mobiles whilst in either countries.  What is the best subscription for me to buy and in which country should I purchase it?
    NOTE: I am not really concerned about calls to Australia.  I don't make that many and so am happy to pay as I go for the Australian calls.

    Probably best option would be Unlimited US&Canada subscription, which you can get if you are located in US.
    It will be displayed here: http://www.skype.com/go/subscriptions
    If you are outside of US or Canada then this subscription is not offered.
    It doesn't matter where you are located when placing calls, but with subscriptions it does matter where you are when purchasing.

  • What is the best product for network mapping and monitoring? I am an inexperienced user). Mac 10.9.2 laptop

    I have lots of questions, but the gist is that I want to know the best product, preferably from the app store, that I can use for network mapping mapping and monitoring.
    I want to get their mac address or other police trackable etc info so I can use my computer safely.
    I am also being cyberbullied.
    I try just using ethernet but still get intruded on, for instance, messages that "other devices are using my ip address". The only other device I own is an iPod that I keep sahut off plus wifi turned off then.
    (NOTE:  You can skip the rest of this message if you want. It regards hacking attempts etc,  a little out of the scope of discussion, perhaps).
    Also a home intrusion where computer was thoroughly hacked with router(s) set up "very very close to me," according to Apple.
    Also, hackers get into my Facebook and gmail and yahoo mail, really,  no matter what I try to do on my computer and how many times I change passwords it does no good.
    Also,  The ip addresses for google and the one in syste preferences and the one looking up my ip address on ip chicken always gets three different results.
    More worrisome it that hackers got into my Wells Fargo account a week after the intrusion even though I changed all account #'s and pw plus notified bank. They also broke into paypal using my new account numbers.
    Also, stuff like Facetime pops up on my computer without my clicking on it even though I'm using ethernet to connect. I've given up on Time Capsule because I'm told that's how the hackers hacked my computer so thoroughly duriung the intrusion.
    Thanks.

  • What is the best product for me?

    Next year I will be a college student and want an apple product that can be my notebook. I currently use OneNote on a Toshiba tablet, but want to upgrade to apple. I know that apple does not make a tablet, but I figured I could get an ipad with a stylus for when I need to write things like math. I could also get one of those attachable keyboards for essays and such. Does this sound like a logical system for a college student? Can OneNote even be downloaded on an iPad? I've seen the styluses and they seem a bit weird, with a round rubber tip. It seems as though that isn't very efficient for writing as you wouldn't know exactly where what you draw would show up, am I right about that? If I am, I guess I would just get a normal Macbook and simply use paper for math class. Please let me know what you think would be the best system for me. Thank you!

  • What is the best method for moving iTune Libraries from Old to New Computer

    Hello,
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you may offer.
    My Sony Vaio Desktop recently died and untimely death, so I just purchased an HP Notebook. I was trying to wait out the release of the possible update of the Macbook line. However the old computer didn't agree. This HP will tie me over till a new release.
    I've been doing weekly backups for over 3 years with a backup drive from Western Digital. At this point I just want to transfer my music in iTunes and applications from the App store that are loaded on to my iPod Touch into the new computer and then reauthorize and sync.
    My question is what's the best method. Oh another problem I'm having includes the latest iPhone & iPod Touch software problem of 3rd party apps not working along with the vanishing of my music on the Touch.
    Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    Open up a fresh copy of iTunes. Point iTunes in the direction of your Western Digital Harddrive. Import Folders.
    1. New Copy
    2. Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> General -> Change -> <the address of the iTunes library on WD>
    3. File -> Add Folder to Library -> <Select iTunes folder on WD>
    Always keep a backup of your iTunes Library file and the iTunes XML Document. If you have those, then it might be just as simple as copying those to your iTunes file folder. If you are not sure where they are, then do a search for iTunes.xml.

  • What are the best practices for using the enhancement framework?

    Hello enhancement framework experts,
    Recently, my company upgraded to SAP NW 7.1 EhP6.  This presents us with the capability to use the enhancement framework.
    A couple of senior programmers were asked to deliver a guideline for use of the framework.  They published the following statement:
    "SAP does not guarantee the validity of the enhancement points in future releases/versions. As a result, any implemented enhancement points may require significant work during upgrades. So, enhancement points should essentially be used as an alternative to core modifications, which is a rare scenario.".
    I am looking for confirmation or contradiction to the statement  "SAP does not guarantee the validity of enhancement points in future releases/versions..." .  Is this a true statement for both implicit and explicit enhancement points?
    Is the impact of activated explicit and implicit enhancements much greater to an SAP upgrade than BAdi's and user exits?
    Is there any SAP published guidelines/best practices for use of the enhancement framework?
    Thank you,
    Kimberly

  • What is the best product for converting MTS files (NOT on camera or in root directory) for editing in Final Cut

    Hello all,
    I have read the forums and know that I cannot use the Log and Transfer function on Final Cut Express 4.0 for my AVCHD files (from my Panasonic HC-V700) AFTER I have transfered the files out of the original root directory.  Unfortunately, I did not know this until recently and I have a bunch of old footage in .mts form that I copied onto my harddrive WITHOUT the root directory.  I now must get it into Final Cut Express 4.0.1. and I would like to use a Log and Transfer style program so that I can select what I need and erase the rest.  I know about the program VoltaicHD which can be used for this purpose.  I have not yet purchased it, but I will if this is my best option.  The downsides to it are that it takes a lot of time to process the files (i hear from this forum) and that it creates extremely large files (hearsay from this forum, though I would like to know just how big those files are and how they compare to the size of files final cut creates). When I tried the trial version, I also noticed that unlike the log and transfer function in Final Cut Express 4.0.1, you cannot capture multiple subclips from a single clip.  Well you can, but you have to load the clip into the viewing window again, which is not ideal.
    I would love some more advice on this.  I imagine other people have made this same mistake and have had to figure their way out of it.
    I was also wondering is it possible to use Final Cut Express's Log and Transfer program directly from files if they are in a different file format.  So far my experiments with this have failed.  But if this is possible, I suppose I can also just convert all the backlogged files wholesale into a format that Final Cut Express supports more easily for Log and Transfer (What file format would this be? Sorry I am new to this).  My new harddrive has a lot of free space, so I could probably handle the huge amount of storage that this would require for the raw footage and then I could erase it after I log and transfer just what I need.   In which case, do folks have recommendations for a file convertor.  I am dealing with over hundreds of files and I don't think the free online convertors would work. This product has been suggested to me, but I know very little about it.
    Thanks!
    Mira

    I am also finding, when I use Voltaic trial version, that the quicktime movies it creates are of inferior quality than those created through log and transfer into final cut express and imovie, particularly during rapid movement. There's a lot of visible lines running horizontally around areas of rapid movement (not sure what the lingo is for this).
    Anyway, now I am getting accustomed to the idea that my best bet is probably just a high quality converter to get my mts files into something more useable by final cut.  At this point, I am willing to sit through the render time that it will take on final cut express while I edit.  I am just trying to get my footage into workable format without losing quality.
    Thank you!
    Mira
