Where are the iTunes visualizer .bundle's?

In the past I've installed a bunch of iTunes visualizers. Recently I wondered why many have disappeared from the Visualizer menu in iTunes.
indeed, I found a bunch of visualizer .bundle files in here:
/library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins, both on my user library and the system library.
Here's the kicker though- none of those show up in the menu in iTunes. And those that do show up in iTunes.. are not in the beforementioned Library Plug-ins folders. And no, these aren't the standard iTunes visualizers, but custom ones I installed from wowlab. But I installed them just by placing them in the iTunes Plug-ins folder.. so how come they're gone from that folder, yet they are the only ones that work in iTunes?
So it seems almost like the working .bundle's are somewhere else. But where?
Halp... how do I get the rest of my visualizers working again?

It depends on how you have iTunes Preferences set. The default is that when you drag files into the Music list they are copied into the library (so now you have two copies). You can change this so that all the iTunes Library contains is a references to the files - effectively an alias. Obviously if you move the files, iTunes can't find them.
In your case, if your iTune/iTunes Music folder and the album folders inside it contain actual music files then the files outside the iTunes folder are duplicates and can be removed. If the files are simply references, and thus very small, then you can't remove the actual music files.
The quick test is to close iTunes and remove them temporarily. Then open iTunes and see whether your songs play. Scroll through the list looking for the small i in a circle sign to the left of the title which indicates it can't find the file. If you don't find any then you are safe to get rid of the duplicate files.
In doing all this do not tamper with anything in the iTunes folder.

Where is the iTunes visualizer?

So where is the iTunes visualizer? Dont tell me the installer people making fixes are going to also come out with this before Apple?

Welcome to the forums.
There are lots of different forums here and sometimes it's confusing, but this is the forum for the iPhone (and issues with any music and video *on it*).
You should post your question in the iTunes forum. Here's the main forum (just pick a subforum to post):

Where are the iTunes update files kept? I need to delete them all.

As it says on the tin.
I have found articles about removing update files on Macs, but not Windows.

Where are the iTunes plist files

I changed to Lion. Because the OS I started from had corrupt files I opted to partition and create a clean instal. Because of the corruption on the old system I do not want to use file migration. The only two things I need to move are my .plist files for iTunes and iPhoto, which I can find on the old system but not on Lion.
I unlocked the hidden files but I can't find the library or the prefernce folder in which to place the old .plist files. Where is it? Does anyone know?

The Library is Hidden in Lion. Finder Menubar/Hold the Option key/Go/Library
Files will be in ~/Library/Preferences

Where are the "Itunes security settings"?

To reset my security questions without a rescue email I've read people saying to go to itunes store support, click on Account management then "Itunes store Security" I've visited the page multiple times in search of it but the closest thing I've found to it is "apple ID account security" but that hasn't helped because I don't have a rescue email or remember my security questions

Where are the local radio playlists/charts in the new iTunes 7.0.1.8?

Q: Where are the local radio playlists/charts in the new iTunes 7.0.1.8? I like to see what the local radio stations and surrounding markets are playing. I used this feature all the time in iTunes 6.
A. I just found the answer, but I'll post this anyway. The "Radio" link was moved from the iTunes store home page. From the iTunes Store homepage you have to click on "Music" in the "iTunes Store" box. Then, go to the "More In Music" box and click on "Radio."

Can I use captured footage of the itunes visualizer in videos?

I know someone already asked about still images captured from the visualizer but I've been screencapturing the performance of the Itunes visualizer playing along to some of my bands music, obviously it pulses itself to whatever music is being played, and I also sort of choreograph sequences by enabling and disabling the freeze and camera lock, and using mode changes. I then take the footage and often mirror image the video sort of like a Rorshact Test and sometimes layer that with a kaleidoscope effect or other random video images and effects I've created and or recorded and I sync that to my bands music.
So I would like to use this stuff as sort of videos and background for our music and posting it to Youtube, I really just intend it as something to play along with the music that may or may not be interesting to watch, I'm not interested in passing this off as like my sole artistic creation. Of course I have no problem stating that I used the Itunes Visualizer to generate graphics and source material for these intended videos but is that enough? I have seen other people posting videos that contain images and sequences of the visualizer in various other contexts like tutorials and the like on Youtube, also Im not exactly making nor do I expect to make any kind of money off this, its mostly just for me and my friends, still I dont want to infringe/plagiarize anything but I'm curious where that all stands. Who exactly would I credit, Apple the entity or the actual, specific programmers of the visualizer, what about the specific algorhythms? How would I go about asking for a release?
I've tried looking all over the place for similar questions, the one with still images was the closest but not specific enough, so I hope I'm not double posting or anything.
I of course appreciate any advice on this but I'd really appreciate as specific an answer as possible. If it's a no-no from jumpstreet I'd rather know now, these things get kinda of tricky with art and copyright, again I'm not interested in claiming I solely created these images, but if I could credit someone and be allowed to use them and manipulate them how would one go about that?
thanks for any advice and help,
D

But then what? I am in the same situation, and have both the original iPhone and original sim card, and that is it. I am not the original iPhone owner (that was a family member who now has a new iPhone), and I do not have a new iPhone or a new iPhone sim card. How do you convert it to an iPod Touch with ONLY the old sim card (reboot does NOT work).

(261936172) Q general Where are the Web Service source files?

Q <general> Where are the source files for a Web Service created
with WebLogic Workshop stored? How do I deploy the Web Service
on a different WebLogic Server? Is there a way to bundle the
Web Service project files manually to distribute them?
Is there a way to configure the directory where Workshop stores
the files?
ANSWER: (by Adam Fitzgerald, [email protected]) The .jws files are stored
in the project folder. This can be located on a local system, although by default
they are in c:\bea\wlserver700b\sample\workshop\applications. The Web Service
structure is understood by WLS 7.0 so by archiving the appropriate folder you
can transfer the Web Service in its entirety from one deployment to another.

Where are the audio files in an iPad mini?

Hi.
Where are the audio files in an iPad mini? (iTunes, Garage band...)
W.W.

Thanks Jonathan.
To be more specific. After you record an audio file with Garageband on the iPad mini where is it stored, to be copied, transfired?

Where are the audio files located?

You know how when your video source is missing, it shows that ! with a yellow triangle around it? Then, when you hover over the !, it shows you where iMovie expected to find the video, and then you can just move the video there and it's fixed. But for audio, it doesn't show you where it is supposed to be located when you hover over the ! in the audio file (music green bar).
So, where are the music files supposed to be located so that it can find them?
Thanks!

To the best of my knowledge, iMovie simply links to the music file from wherever it is located in your system. That could be the iTunes Library, your Desktop, an external drive, or other places. So if you move the music to a different location, I assume that iMovie will lose track of it. iMovie doesn't actually import the music to the project - it's just referencing it (as far as I'm aware).
If you know the name of the track (or tracks, or artists), try doing a search both within iTunes and on your hard drive using Spotlight. If found, the best solution is probably to drag it again into your project, then do the necessary edits if applicable.
Note that, in iMovie the music tracks are identified by song name - it's shown at the beginning of the green audio bar. So the songs shouldn't be too difficult to track down. It's just a pain having to re-instate them.

Where are my iTunes libraries?

I have an iPod Touch and my new iPad Mini. On my iPod Touch, all of the music and video files are available from the iTunes desktop, or by navigating to (User)/iTunes/iTunes Library.
However, even though I back up my iPad Mini and have lots of music and files there, I can't locate the files when the iPad isn't in the Lightning connector. When I perform a Spotlight search on an item I know is on my iPad Mini, I can't see the files- until I back up iTunes. Where are the files located? Why can't Spotlight locate my backed-up iPad library items?
Thanks!

That means that the items on my iPad Mini only appear on a search when my iPad Mini is attached via Lightning connection; when disconnected, the files only appear on my iPad Mini.
Let's suppose that I have an mp4 video that's on my iPad Mini. If it's being backed up, that means that a copy of the video should reside in my backup drive. But when I look on the backup drive for the specific mp4 video, it doesn't appear anywhere. Where is it located?
If the file is somehow deleted from my iPad Mini, and I need to get a copy of the file from my backup drive, where do I find it?
Another idea comes to mind. My iPad Mini files aren't being backed up at all; only my iPod Touch files are being backed up. Each device requires a different HD device to back up the data, or a single drive partitioned in two parts. In other words, I need to back up separately for the iPod Touch and iPad Mini.
