There are however a heap of random tracks that are listed fine in the library (ie tag shows up fine, file is present, etc) which iTunes simply refuses to play (though VLC for example has no issues playing them). These tracks are sometimes part of an album, otherwise full albums, all mp3 or aac...

iTunes doesn't actually give an error of any sort, it just doesn't play them (and will skip to next song if on shuffle/etc).

With 10K songs I don't have the patience to sit down and test every single track in my library - does anyone know of some little utility that actually runs through and 'validates' your library to ensure everything is working??

Cheers in advance for any advice ]]> Thu, 12 Nov 2009 12:40:57 +0000 http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119417-checking-itunes/ http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119413-multiple-itunes-can-i-sync/
A has all my music and I copy all that music to B and C (so now A=B=C)

Is there a way I can add a CD of music to itunes B and at some point have itunes sync up so A=B=C again?

I'd like for itunes to handle this, but so far don't think it can.

Is there a third party app to help?

Manually move files?

Thoughts?

I didn't rate the ALBUM, I rated the INDIVIDUAL track.

Sometimes iTunes in its admirable efforts to be 'helpful', just ends up just being 'interfering' like a Windows application.]]> Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:59:09 +0000 http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119387-rating-versus-album-rating/ http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119287-add-artwork-into-itunes-not-found-via-advanced-search/ In iTunes I have a link to a radio station. No artwork is available from the iTunes advanced search facility. Looking at the 'Help' dropdown, it says I can import artwork via the method of dragging the image (a jpg file) into the 'art work' box. This works in that in can drag the image into the 'now playing' box on the bottom left of the screen. However I can't discover how to then attach the artwork to the display in the main screen where album covers etc are displayed for selection. I've tried drag and drop from the 'now playing' box into the selected main box and no good.
Perhaps the 'art work' box is something else?
Can anyone help?]]> Mon, 09 Nov 2009 18:29:36 +0000 http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119287-add-artwork-into-itunes-not-found-via-advanced-search/ http://forums.macworld.com/index.php?/topic/119108-opinions-best-way-to-move-album-artwork/
1. Do it manually again on both computers (kinda time consuming)

2. Deleting my iTunes libraries from both computers. Then following the appropriate Apple support article to use my iPod to move music from 1 computer to another using my iPod. Basically just taking my iMac library which is current with artwork and adding that same library to my other 2 macs.

Are there any other options that I have? What would be the best way to get this done?
Thanks guys and gals.

I then want to write this to disk. A player I'm using on my motorcycle has a limit of 99 tracks per folder, and only 6 folders, but no limit on storage. If I could join two or three songs together I'd be able to double/triple the number of songs.

What is the difference in these 2 iPods that differentiates between podcasts and what are the possible differences between these podcasts?

I was able to circumvent the problem by selecting "convert to iPod or iPhone version" under the "advanced" menu but this took over 24 hours for a 2 hour video. They all seem to be mp4 files.

Any explanations?

Any way to get Genius Mixes to exclude portions of my library? Or is there an easy way to move my seasonal music out of my library and bring it in at the right time?
