When trying to locate songs in my iTunes library, often when I find the song it asks me if I would like it to find other missing files. Sometimes it can't find other missing songs. How do I make sure that it is looking at all of my hard dirves?

Locating missing songs in my iTunes library. How do you make sure that all drives are being looked at for the missing songs?

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

EDiscovery_SharePoint 2013_After a set of content is placed on hold in a location, how do I make sure that anything added to the same location

Hi everyone,
After a set of content is placed on hold in a location, how do I make sure that anything added to the same location,that meets the filter (e.g. keyword) gets added to the hold automatically ?
Right now the only way I can do this is to take off the hold ,re-apply the filter to the source and then enable the hold. That isn't sustainable.

@arcycapa,
If you have a Mac, you can download iDentify2 (http://identify2.arrmihardies.com/). It is free. You can use that change or set your contentRating. If you are on Windows, there is a commercial tool called MetaX. or download a free command line tool called AtomicParsley from (https://bitbucket.org/wez/atomicparsley). Unzip the file and run this command (AtomicParsley "C:/Users/Home Videos/name of the file.mp4" --contentRating R) from the DOS prompt without the parenthesis. Please keep in mind the forward slash in the path name listed above. This would generate a temp file. You can rename the temp file to the original file name. Just a word of caution, please make a copy of your original file somewhere. Just in case.

How do i make sure that my creative cloud apps are RTL (hebrew) compatible?

how do i make sure that my creative cloud apps are RTL (hebrew) compatible?

In your Creative Cloud Desktop app choose Preferences, then under Apps,
choose this App Language:
Then each app you want will have an Install button next to it.
After installing, go into Preferences for each app. Under Interface, choose English (Hebrew) for the UI language,and under Type, select Middle Eastern. Restart, and be sure your OS is set up for Hebrew.

How do I make sure that my second-hand iPod is not a stolen product?

My husband recently recieved an iPod shuffle from a friend of his. His friend told him he could have it since the friend didn't have a computer to download songs from or charge the iPod with. He states that he thought the iPod already had songs pre-recorded on it, and even if he used someone else's computer to get the songs, it's too much trouble. My husband had lent him some money to pay a utility bill and he was using this iPod that he just happened to have laying around to pay my husband back. I don't trust my husband's friend. How can I make sure that he isn't trying to push a stolen iPod off onto my husband? We haven't used it yet. My husband doesn't have much use for the shuffle, but I would love it, if only I could find out whether it was stolen or not. I don't want to take it to the police and start a big fight or get his friend in trouble, but if it is stolen I want to know so I can send it back to Apple or who ever owns it.

Hi pyrausagi,
You sound like a very honest and sensible person, who is taking very reasonable precautions against becoming a second victim of theft. Others on these forums have been less cautious and have lost their recent purchases.
My suggestion would be to make sure the person offering the iPod shuffle is easily identifyable. Make sure he/she has a real address and you know what it is. Get a picture of the person and make sure they know you have it. If they are not above board I'm fairly sure they won't allow this.
There are a number of online databases of stolen merchandise. Look them up and check the serial number of the iPod against these databases.
Apple will not tell you if the item is stolen. Their phone agents that work with the public do not have that kind of information.
Note that doing all this will not guarantee you don't get a stolen iPod. Only purchasing one new (or refurbished) from Apple or an authorized reseller can do that. It does, however, give you a better chance.
Best of luck. Enjoy whatever iPod you get.

How do I get music already on my laptop on (amazon, Emodio, Windows media player) into my itunes library, I have just done the icloud match as I thought this would do it for me, but the only songs on my phone are the 40 that I already had in itunes..

How do I get music already on my laptop into my itunes account library? I have just done the icloud match thinking this would pick them all up, but it hasn't, all it has done is match the 40 songs I already have in my itunes library. I wanted to get some more music onto my iphone and I am stuck. If someone could assist, that would be great. Thanks. Sue

I need to restore my phone, how do I make sure that it backed up?

I made the mistake of putting a new lock on my phone & now I can't remember what it was. I started the back up process last night & it said it needed 14 hours. This morning around 7am it said there were 3 hours remaining (it's been awhile since I updated/backed up). I came home from work and nothing was on the screen except itunes. I clicked something & it put my purchased songs from my phone to my itunes. Now I'd like to restore it, but would like to make sure it backed up. How do I do so? Thanks!

In iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and look in the list and see what the backups are and the dates/times. If you had not done a sync for a long time, that would explain the extended length of time for the backup, but you can also try and do another backup if you are willing to risk the time by right-clicking on the iPhone in the device pane and select backup. If the earlier backup was successful, this one should be very short since you really didn't change anything since the last backup, and they are incremental now.

How do I make sure that all Firefox sessions are closed so I can download 6.0? Keep getting a dialogue box saying that only 1 can be open at a time. Only 1 IS open, and I need this update to meet a system requirement for an online class.

Not sure what I can add to that. I actually shut down my Mac to make sure no sessions were open before I tried again. Help.

How do I make sure that google reader launches whenever I click on an RSS feed icon (to add a new feed)?

Right now, when I click to add a new rss feed (using the icon up in the search bar), it automatically launches yahoo, which drives me crazy. I want to CHANGE the setting so that it automatically launches google reader. Please advise!

See http://lifehacker.com/392287/set-firefox-3-to-launch-gmail-for-mailto-links
Set the pref gecko.handlerService.allowRegisterFromDifferentHost to true on the about:config page.
Run this javascript code via copy and paste to the location bar and press the Enter key to run the code.
<code>navigator.registerProtocolHandler('mailto','https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=%s','Gmail');</code>
Do not forget to reset the pref gecko.handlerService.allowRegisterFromDifferentHost to false after you have added Gmail.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

How do I make sure that CS5.5 Merge clips encodes Audio at correct volume?

Windows 7 x 64, 2 TB, 12 GB RAM,
I am using the Premiere Pro CS5.5 Trial (full version), particularly because of the new Merge clips feature.
The Merge clips works intuitively and easily; this is a fantastic advantage. I am creating these clips to use in Captivate 5.0.
But, when encoded, the Audio volume has blown out so that it shatters the ear drums.
I am not sure whether this is a PP problem, or an AME 5.5 problem.
A second problem is this with the Merge Clips. In the Project panel, if you check the Duration of a Merge clip (in PP) it shows the original duration even although it has been altered on the Timeline.
If I encode the video clip separately from the Audio, I can adjust the Audio volume in Captivate, but, this:
1) increases the overall file sizes-something I don't want for the web.
2) the video duration and the audio duration do not match, even though they did on the Timeline. This did not happen in CS5.
I know this is a new version, but has anyone any ideas that I might try. I have alread delayed my project waiting for CS5.5 to become available.

Sounds like Media Encoder is actually recording the audio as a stereo file but the audio is panned to one side.
Check that you haven't accidentally panned the audio in the mixer to one side.

How do I make sure that all my work on my time machine backup can be retrieved?

What do I do if I have migrated my imac with my time machine's last back up after reinstalling the system and I cannot find all my work files??

You don't provide much information but my guess is you used Migration Assistant, if so change your user account and log into the new user account created when you used MA. Your files will be there, you can move them using the instructions in Transferring files from one User Account to another

How do I make sure that Media Encoder CS5 encodes into stereo

I have created an extra channel in Soundbooth to create 'stereo'. The updated file in Premiere Pro shows the new file name, and the audio wave now shows in stereo.
Because this the video is to be used for an Adobe Captivate CS5 project, the video has since been broken into subclips, some to be retained as video; others to be used as audio narration behind PPT slides.
My problem is this:
Media Encoder encodes the Audio subclips (MP3) correctly as stereo.
Media Encoder encodes the Video subckps as Mono, even although the Stereo radio button has been selected.
The variation between one channel for video, and stereo behind the PPT slides is distracting.
In addition, there is a lot of noise on the both Audio, and Video files. It was not there in Soundbooth.
I would really appreciate help, as this problem is preventing me from completing the Captivate project. Because this is for Distance education (Higher) which involves a lot of listening, quality of sound is very important.

HT1751 Not all the music I have in Itunes is in the Itunes library, how do I make sure all is there to transfer to new computer

I am trying to move my Itunes Library to a different computer. When I put the Itunes library onto the external hard drive it only had a portion of the songs. Alot did not copy over. How do I make sure that all the songs in Itunes are in the Itunes Library stored on my computer?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
