Why do I have to use a new disk each time I update my Back Up

Hey gang,
Is there a way to add to the same RW DVD disk when backing up my itunes? I don't even come close to filling the disk with a full back up let alone having to use a new disk each time. What a waste of good space!!! What gives?
Bolderwise

Have you considered using either a jump drive or a portable hard-drive to back up your iTunes files?
In the beginning, I was using a 8GB jump drive to back up my iTunes music folder. I ran out of space on that, so I purchased a 250GB portable hard drive and have been backing up my iTunes music folder on that. Very easy.....you just put the USB port of the hard-drive into your computer...COPY your iTunes music folder from the computer and PASTE it to the portable hard-drive.

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

  • Why do I have to install Connect Add-in each time I share desktop?

    Each time I want to share my desktop I am prompted to install the connect add-in.  It stays active while the browser is open, but when I close the browser and try again, I have to install it all over again.  Often the install hangs, and I have to cancel and install a dozen times to get it to install.  How do I install once and never again?

    Usually Muse only uploads files which have changed.
    A new version of Muse was released yesterday. If you're uploading your site for the first time with the new version, Muse will upload all files because some of the code generation has changed in the new version.
    The next time you upload with the same version of Muse, only the changed files should be uploaded.

  • Why do I have to allow a new window every time to open from within another window, Ie, from an email?

    When I try to go to a web site from another web site or from an email from a link, I am required to click on the "ALLOW" button every time. It seems like if I have already clicked on it that I have allowed it. It is very frustrating. If it can't be fixed, I will either go back to an older version of firefox or choose another browser

  • Why do I have to Re-Register my Touch each time i sync it?

    Every time I connect my Touch, I have to repeat the registration process.
    This is a replacement Touch for one that I had that blew up on me.
    Only thing I can figure is, they made me register it at the store where the replaced it, and it tried to sync to their computer.
    Should a Restore fix it?
    Thoughts please anyone?

    Well, I was charging it and playing some music. I looked down, and the screen was bright White....I could not shut it off. I unplugged it and held down the buttons, it turned off and never turned back on again.
    It was extremely hot. Not enough to burn you, but sorta like a cup of coffee hot.
    They were not sure what happened, but i got a new (not refurbished) touch.
    Wish I could figure out this registration thing though.

  • Do I have to use Edit-add link each time I want to add a URL in Mail?

    There has to be another way to add a hyperlink (URL) like http://www.apple.com to a message in Mail- other than going to the menu, EDIT going to LINK and choosing add then typing or pasting in a box??
    I mean even in the 15 year old Eudora Program I was using, if I type http://www.whatever.com I get an automatic hyperlink created! Please tell me that there is a way to set Mail to just interpret hyperlinks (URL's) to turn blue, get underlined and work when I just type or paste them in my message.
    Thanks!
    Best regards,

    I am using Apple Mail 3.6 (Leopard) and it has been detecting/converting (or whatever you would like to call it) URL's I enter in the body of the email ever since I started using Mail. Unlike the original post of this message, for me Mail has been doing this almost as I type. Unfortunately, for me, I can't stand it!
    I post a lot of files to our web server and then email clients and staff links to these files. The links I type tend to be a bit lengthy, about 60 characters or more - typical for web links. My frustration is that Mail will 'detect/convert' the URL to a link before I even finish typing it! I then have to place my cursor wherever Mail determined the end of the URL was in order to type the rest of the URL. This is because when Mail converts the URL it somehow takes me out of typing mode? I have to click in the body of the email again to resume typing.
    Once I have finished typing the URL, I then need to select the URL portion that Mail identified and right-click 'Remove', otherwise the clickable link that gets sent in the email will error out because it is incomplete.
    Finally, I have to select the entire URL, copy, right-click 'Link' and paste the URL into the Link popup. Frustratingly, sometimes, if I'm not fast enough, Mail will re-convert the original portion of the URL before I can click <OK> on the Link popup, which makes me have to start the process all over again! Very frustrating!
    This detect/convert also occurs with email addresses. If I type an email address into the body of an email, Mail usually lets me finish typing it. However, while I might be a sentence or two after the email address I typed in, Mail will detect/convert the address to a link AND take me all the way back to the BEGINNING of the first email address so that as I am typing, my characters are being inserted in front of the email address!?! Again, very frustrating!
    I have searched the web several times trying to find an answer to this. I finally came across a method for disabling 'Data Detectors' in Mail (see below if you want to know how to do this). However, frustratingly enough, this DID NOT disable the detect/convert of the URL and email addresses that I am talking about in this post. It only disables the detection of addresses, dates, names for use with the right-click 'Add to Address Book', etc. type of thing, which I don't mind keeping.
    Does anyone know what I am talking about and have a solution for how to stop Mail from doing this? If so, I would be very thankful for a solution or any assistance. Thanks.
    Disable Data Detectors
    if you don’t like the data detectors that Apple added to Mail in Leopard, you can disable them by opening Terminal and typing...
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableDataDetectors YES
    You have to quit Mail and restart it again. But after that, you're data detector free and loving it. Typing or pasting the exact same string, but changing "YES" to "NO," reverses the setting so that they're back on if you decide to change your mind.

  • Why do we have to manually recreate our accounts each time the email server goes down?

    On very infrequent occassions (fortunately), our email server will go off-line.  Whenever this happens, every one of us has to login to the Blackberry Internet Service website to reenter the account information.  This is very annyoing.  Why doesn't it just automatically reconnect when the email server goes back up?

    No idea why. I'm guessing the the BIS system goes to check for email and can't find the account.  Then it sends you the email to revalidate and it won't check again until you do.  If it was setup to check too many times with, say, a wrong password, it may lock the account.  This is only a guess on my part. 
    Your people with accounts setup like this should know how to go to their email setup on their device and validate the password.  It's not very complicated and takes only a moment.

  • Why do i have to use nextLine() when there is an InputMismatchException

    When i run the program if i input something that triggers the exception, it infinitely loops through the question and the catch method block outputs, weirdest thing of all is that i can't even input again after the exception is thrown, but with nextLine() it avoids that, but i still dont understand why do i have to use nextLine().Exactly what I said.
    You enter "A". The exception is thrown. The "A" is not consumed. It calls nextInt on "A" again... and again... and again...
    If you do nextLine, the "A" and the newline are consumed.
    Even on good input, I don't think nextInt consumes the EOL.

    Just edited 20 film in FCPx all about 6 mins long all on 1 x 250gb flash drive
    Now i have another 10 to do but have no room on that drive.
    So i have been using my new 2tb drive to do the next 10 films with the footage on that drive, but i need elements from the first 20 films ie; graphics, common film elements etc to be added to the new 10 films.
    So I have copied all the footage, events and project folders from the 20 edited films over to my 2tb drive in a separate folder - ejected the 250gb drive (as i only have 2 thunderbolt slots and one is used for a 27 inch monitor on my macbook pro)
    .......my question is how do i load all of the 20 films into my project library so i can see all of the 30 films at once so i can copy and paste form one film to another - is this possible? and withlout messing up lol

    // any reason, why you color your post to 'invisible' low contrasted colors?? //
    I'm confused:
    by concept, there's Events and there's Projects.
    Events and Projects can be internal or on any ext. drive.
    You can use any Event in any Project.
    … so, why is the 'location' of your files on any relevance for your Projects ??
    Or, do you want to re-import done-Projects as 'Events'? Export,Import, done… (??)
    … sorry, maybe I'm just lost intranslation
