What is the easiest way to get music into itunes library?

Hey everyone, what is the easiest way to get my songs into itunes without importing them one by one. For example, if you download several songs with Limewire is there a way to make them automatically download into Itunes or do you have to add file or import them manually. I tried to be slick and change the folder that the limewire was saving songs into to make it the same as the itunes library folder. I didn't do something right apparently cause I still have to either add file or import to get the songs. I wish there was a way to just auto download them into the itunes or scan the computer for new songs.

Does this software do what you want?

What's the easiest way to get PDFs into iPad?

A friend has a jail broken iPad. He can drag-and-drop PDF files right into his iPad with the same ease that we can when copying a PDF file from one Mac to another (Does not use, or need iTunes).
I do NOT want to jailbreak my iPad. Is there some similar way to transfer PDFs to iPad without going through iTunes (which I find to be a hassle).

You can either use iTunes (which you've already said that you don;t want to do)
I find transferring files using iTunes difficult and tedious (compared to the drag-and-drop methods used by jail broken iPads). I put in several hours trying to transfer PDF files using iTunes and never could get it to work. Perhaps I did not have the right App on my iPad.
use a PDF app on the iPad that supports wifi transfer
Can you suggest an App that does this?
I did view the DropBox video. (The video urges one to simply download it, and never discloses the cost prior.) Also, I would never put my personal files on the cloud where they can be hacked. I want something I can simply transfer on my own network without using the Internet.

What is the easiest way to get the data from the mailmerge to form Pages files that can be saved separately?

Using Iwork 09 I have spent several hours setting up a mail merge from a spread sheet in Numbers to create receipts for my customers from a Pages template.
After the merge I am left with one long Pages document that will not save as separate files; one per customer, it will only save the whole document of several receipts.

Many thanks in advance.

Mr. Clark,
You will probably be more pleased with the iWork apps when you begin to learn your way around. Until you learn such basic things as how to print only one page of a document, you will probably continue to be disappointed.
Does your Print dialog look like this:
Or like this:
If it looks like the first one, then you will want to click this expander control:

What is the easiest way to transfer music from my ex's itunes library to mine? We both have Macbooks and we do have home sharing.

Over the years my ex's and I bought tons of music off itunes, but always bought it on her Macbook. Now that we aren't together I want to copy all of the music from her itunes library and import it into mine. Is this possible, and what is the easiest way?
Many Thanks

the simplest way, assuming all your media files are in the default location, would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
that would ensure everything (including playcounts, ratings, original "date added", which home sharing doesn't copy over) will be transferred. it would also ensure that any mobile devices (iPhone, etc.) will simply keep on syncing without problems.
you can also use an external HD (or your LAN) but make sure to copy the entire iTunes folder.

Cannot get Music into Itunes Library

Stumped on this one, need help. Using a PC, brought in music from external hard drive to my own. Followed posted web instructions to add folder to library. Result is all new music shows up in i tunes music folder, but not on I tunes library. Without actually playing each song individually, (physically double clicking them from I tunes music folder), how do I now get almost 30 Gig of music to show in my I tunes library. Current library shows 27 gig, should be 57 gig with new music.
PC Windows XP

I too can't get music into itunes. Running XP on a Dell box-of-some-kind. Installed itunes, fine. It imported most of my existing music on start-up just fine; most of the music is on two external hard drives. My music library was too big for the 80gb ipod, so I set to manual sync. It found the ipod. So far so good.
Some of the music wasn't in the itunes library after the initial install. When I went to put it there manually, nothing happened. Tried drag and drop on the library music icon. Tried "add file". Tried "import". Tried deleting the file on the itunes library, the hard drive and the ipod, and re-ripping it in windows media player (mp3 format), then tried steps above again. Nada. Rebooted, tried same steps again. Zip. It's not like these were just some folders that were missed; these are songs missing from albums, where the other songs on the album imported and these ones didn't. I even tried deleting the entire albums, re-ripping them, and re-importing them; now none of the songs in those albums will show up. I read that itunes won't copy duplicate files and won't give feedback, and I tried the posted work-around with the equivalent of the option key. Still no joy. (all the music file formats are mp3)
All this music is purchased and ripped from cd's, or is my own recorded stuff. Nothing pirated. I can uninstall and reinstall itunes, but will that be likely to resolve my problem? Running itunes 7.
Also can't import movies or anything else. Checked the help on itunes, and found nothing there. Does itunes simply have a limit to how much content it will allow in its libraries? Anybody know of a book on itunes 7 that has good trouble-shooting tips?

Mac Os x 10.2 used came without a browser or mail or restore disks. What's the easiest way to get IE or safari back on?

It's a power Mac g4

Contrary to the above post, IE for Mac does exist. As a matter of fact, it was the default browser for Mac OS 8, 9, and X up until Safari's release in 2003. It was discontinued not long after that. However, you can still download it here: http://mac.oldapps.com/internet_explorer.php?old_internet_explorer=9. As for downloading Safari, if you're running an earlier version of Jaguar (10.2), you should be able to install it by going into Software Update and downloading all the updates available (provided the Mac is connected to the internet, of course). As for getting Mail back, I don't see how it's gone; seeing as it's a pre-installed Apple program, I doubt someone would remove it, and I'm not even sure it can be removed. Try doing a search in Finder for it. Finally, as for no restore discs, there's really no other way around it unless you get a set of restore discs (which are probably difficult to find considering their age) or get someone to put the restore disc data on a USB drive.
On a side note, I don't recommend using Safari or IE for internet browsing on 10.2. They're so outdated that most sites don't display properly on them. I recommend using the latest version of Opera for 10.2, which you can find here: http://mac.oldapps.com/opera.php?old_opera=15. I have personally tried this on an eMac running 10.2 and though slow (as it is also a very outdated browser version, over 5 years old), most sites seem to display properly (at least, for the most part). Or, as another alternative, I would recommend maxing out your Mac's memory and installing Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) and the TenFourFox browser (link: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/). Do that, and you'd have a rather usable internet browsing machine.

What is the easiest way to get time stamped wvm data with AI samp Ch Vi?

The AI sample channel VI only outputs single point waveform data which is making it a beast for me to get my input data into XY graphs. I have been trying to combine the data with a elapsed time clcok so I can synchronize all my inputs but it isnt working too great. All this stuff is in a while loop also, so that gives me trouble. Basically I just want to make an XY graph from both AI inputs.

Tim, no problem. I have attached the modified code that displays the readings from both devices on the same plot. I used a chart instead of an XY graph since it is much easier to use (it keeps track of elapsed time for you if you know the amount of time in between data points - and since the loop time is fixed we do know that). If this time were to change, then we would have to re-create the X-axis (time) and the XY graph would be necessary. One other note - the code that reads the values from the DAQ cards will not execute at exactly the same time, therefore the data will not be acquired at exactly the same time, though it will be close. Therefore, if your application requires these readings to be dead on together in time down to the mi
crosecond for example, then you would have to synch the two devices via hardware. Let me know if you intend to do that and I can steer you in the right direction. Hope this helps.

I saved my IE favorites from my work computer on a cd-r and want to transfer them to my new Win7 home computer. I have thousands of them in hundreds of folders. What is the easiest way to put them into my new computer? I am using FF 6. Thanks.

I am using FF6.

Photos taken by and saved to the iPod are included in the backup that iTunes makes evetime you sync or if do a manual or iCloud backup.
Per the following the backup includes:
iTunes: About iOS backups
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Thus if you backed up after the photos were taken yuo can restore an iDevice from that backup

What's the easiest way to do this?

hey, my music videos are included in the lists of songs, which usually cause my iPod to freeze. what's the easiest way to get them out of my songs lists so that they only show up when i go to Videos. should I just change the names of the music video artists so they don't get mixed in with songs, or is there an easier way to do this that i am missing?

why restore it? does this not happen to everyone? i thought it was just my fault for giving the same artist names for songs and videos...

What's the easiest way to retrieve lost music files?

I was using a file sharing program and I saw that all of my music files were being shown in its share folder, and I did not want to share them. I assumed the files were duplicates and deleted them. When I realized the actual files were being deleted I stopped it, but not before several hundred files were lost. Here is the error message I get when I plug in my iPhone.
http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w91/Candyman_8877/Untitled1.png
It says there is a hundred files missing, but when I count the "!" marks in iTunes, I got to 100 by the letter C, so there is definitely several hundred files missing. I have my machine backed up with time machine, and I also have a faily recent copy of my music folder on an external drive.
I'm wondering, what is the easiest way (using the fewest clicks) to restore all of my missing music files? I'm trying to avoid searching out and restoring every missing file individually, as there are hundreds and this would be very time consuming.
Thanks for any help and advice,
mcfada

If you are confident the Time Machine backup is current, recover your iTunes folder and all its contents from there.

What is the easiest way to delete a song or album directly off the iPod? Also, how do I get rid of the tunes it cannot convert so it does'nt run through them every time I upload an album or song?

Right click the song you want to get rid of and there should be a delete button.
