migrate MP3 library to new ...

I currently keep my 80 GB MP3 library on a portable E: Drive.
I've always managed my own music folder ex: "E:\MP3\Rock and Alternative\Radiohead" etc. etc.

However, I recently upgraded my system (C:) hard drive and now have room to actually keep all of my MP3s there and would like to move them over to drive C: So the path will read like this: "C:\MP3\Rock and Alternative\Radiohead" while keeping all of my star-ratings, play counts, playlists, etc...

Is there a way to do this?

iTunes 9 Smart Playlist Sort Order Not ...

iTunes 9.0.1.8
iPhone 3G 16GB, 3.1OS
WinXP Pro

My Smart Playlists are sorted by "Date Added" in iTunes. When I sync to my iPhone, this sort order is lost. My smart playlists on my iPhone appear to be sorted by Artist. This issue started after upgrading to iTunes 9 (it's worked fine for earlier versions)

Is this a known issues?

Is there a work-around?

"add folder to library" question ...

Firstly - I don't want to put all my music in the iTunes Media folder and let iTunes organise my libary - I like it the way it is.

So I've used the "add folder to library" function to add my music library from another location. I realise that iTunes won't monitor this folder so I just manually add my library folder each time I add music to it, and iTunes rescans the entire directory. Seems to work OK...

Is this creating duplicates or a hideously large library XML? Or does iTunes recognise if a file already exists and only add the new files to its library XML?

Thanks

One extra song ...

I have probably posted a fix to this issue to help others, but it isn't working for me.

I have all of my .mp3 files in one folder named "Music" that is a stand alone file, not in any iTunes folder. In fact, it is in a different hard drive. When I search that drive for .mp3 files, it says I have 10966 files with .mp3 extensions. For some reason, I have 10967 songs in my iTunes library. I added the "Kind" column to my iTunes and ordered them by file type. All of them are MPEG Audio File format.

I suspected that I had a song with the "!" so I went through the entire library page by page and watched for it. Saw nothing. Tried a sync, thinking it would give me the "Song cannot be found" alert. Nothing.

How can I find what this extra track is?

What a Mess New iTunes 9 is! ...

I just installed iTunes 9.0.1 this afternoon ... and from the minute I launched it
I was not impressed. For one thing it runs far slower than the previous and latest
iTunes 8 I had installed.

Most of all, everytime I do an artist search, say The Rolling Stones, when the first window
comes up displaying some of their more popular songs, I then try to have it display all
the iTune Stones songs ... and iTunes 9 ALWAYS goes into a spinning ball mode.
At that point, I just have to force quit iTunes 9.

I just purchased (not arrived yet), one of the new 16 GB iPod nano's and installed this
iTunes 9.1 so I would be able to use the new iPod.

Already, I'm thinking of returning the new 5th generation iPod (or selling it new on eBay), and
going back to the latest iTunes 8, and picking up a 4th generation iPod nano off eBay or elsewhere.

It just seems like Apple really screwed up the user experience with iTunes 9, especially with
all the complaints I am reading about it lately.

I just hope this isn't the point where Apple isn't capable of producing a good product anymore,
and is only rushing out these inferior products long before they should. Apple should stop
appeasing it's product launches to the investors and Wall Street, and start paying attention to
it's customer base more.

For the first time in many, many years, I am truly disappointed in Apple's rush to get out
another iTunes before many of the critical bugs where worked out. Let's hope they get out
some iTunes 9 updates very soon.

Me ... I looking into going back to iTunes 8 until things are worked out better in iTunes 9!
iTunes 9 ... what a FLOP!!!!!

But on the album scroll view, they are separated by the album "For The Sake Of Revenge", also by Sonata Arctica. This I think is the reason why on my iPod (touch) it duplicates the album.

Keep getting error re: access privileges ...

I'm periodically getting an error message in iTunes 9.0.1.8 for Windows (Windows 7 64bit):

"The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

As far as I can tell looking at the security settings for the folder where the iTunes library is saved, I DO have full access privileges. In fact, the last modified date for the iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml files is just a few minutes ago.

Also, I don't notice anything going wrong within iTunes, just these periodic, annoying errors. I could just check the "don't show this error again" box but I'd rather fix whatever is wrong.

Anyone have any clue what is going on here?

iTunes skipping and jumping in my music ...

This is something I am getting very very frustrated about, not on one computer but two!

iTunes 8, fine.
iTunes 9, I have been suffering audio skipping and jumping problems while playing back my music, and it really gets irritating when you're trying to listen.

The computer is not to blame, WinAMP works fine. The music is fine, no skipping on my ipod touch 1G.

Is this a known problem, and is this going to get fixed any time soon? I have to use iTunes for my iPod, and it's a great music library and player, but I am really being let down here.

Running iTunes 9.01 on both Dell Inspiron 531 (AMD x2 2.6Ghz/2GB RAM) and Acer Aspire 5315 (IntelC2D 1.6Ghz/2GB RAM).

Also is this an issue on the intel mac version? I'm considering a macbook, but if itunes won't work properly, I may as well forget it, as I will be dealing with music.

iTunes Not Reading MP3 Tags Until Played ...

I just imported 5000 MP3s, as well as another 3000-5000 songs in other formats into iTunes onto my new computer. iTunes recognized the tags (title, artist, etc.) for songs in most formats, except MP3. It gets the album and artist right, but doesn't read the title, and just uses the file name. Once I play a misnamed song, it changes to the title assigned to the MP3, but as I have so many of them it isn't really an option to play each MP3 one by one. Many of these are duplicates of files in other formats, and the mislabeled songs makes it even harder to determine and delete duplicates.

Any help is much appreciated.

Does anyone know if there's a setting or some additional configuration necessary to enable this? During a run it's obviously a lot easier to get at the back of the headphones than it is to deal with the whole touch-interface of the iPhone.

Thanks,

Ron

iPhone 3G S and Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 ...

I just started evaluating the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 headset. It looks promising with its ultra-compact size and decent sound quality.

However, I am having a major issue with the headset. It does not have volume control built in, meaning volume must be controlled on the iPhone. However, using the volume switch on the side of the iPhone does not work when it is paired with the HBH-IS800 (or any other BT headset, for that matter). It seems to contradict with Apple's following KB article.

I have a 2009 mercdes c220 car which has blu tooth for my iphone3gs so I can use the controls on the sterring wheel to volume, hangup and answer etc. it also says on the display connect to the ipod and does the phone numbers etc.

I would like to get music from the ipod bit of the iphone or spotify to come out of the speakers. I have tried the radio transmitters but they are rubbish.

To my surpiise I played my voice notes applcation and that cam out of the speakers in the car, further more it must be a software thing becuase on the coerner of the voice note thing it had a blue tooth symbol coemup and options for car speakers or the iphone built in speaker,

So to close, how can I get the music from my iphone to use my car stero with blu tooth?

Iphone Music Playback Sound Stops when ...

I just installed a new Pioneer DEH-P710BT ( http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/In-Dash/CD-Players/Premier/DEH-P710BT ) Receiver in my car, and the Iphone connection works great, but after I set up the Bluetooth connection I noticed a bug.

The Receiver has the ability to connect to the Iphone via Bluetooth to allow Phone calls to go through it aswell as stream music and all other sounds from the Iphone through bluetooth, and that ability is enabled soon as you pair the Iphone with the Receiver. Bluetooth Audio playback is used by selecting the BT Audio source from the receiver.

After about 10-12 second after turning the car on the Bluetooth phone syncs then after around another 10 seconds the BT Audio syncs/enables (both are shown by their respective icon/light showing up when they sync/become available).

Soon as the BT Audio light pops up, the music from the Iphone (Connected with the standard USB sync cable) cuts out, but the song still progresses, and songs can be changed, but the actual sound isnt getting passed through. Whether its an issue with the Receiver or the Iphone I cant be sure. Unfortunately you cant disable BT audio separately from the BT Phone sync, so you have both or none.

You can work around this by disconnecting the Iphone and reconnecting it after the BT audio syncs, changing audio sources then changing back after BT audio syncs or simply waiting around 23 seconds from the receiver going on to plug the Iphone in (thats how long it takes for the BT Audio to auto connect). This also only happens if its playing from the Iphone source when the receiver turns on (or if you manage to switch to it in under the ~23 seconds it takes for BT Audio to establish a conection). Disabling the Bluetooth pairing also removes this, but I rather not loose the phone syncing fuctionality.

BT audio isnt actually getting streamed (but does work if Iphone is unplugged) when the Iphone is plugged in due to it still being in use from the standard sync cable, so its not that the audio has swapped output sources, but more like just establishing the connection cuts it.

Anyone else notice this?

But when i'm using headset for example listening to music, and i get a call, music pauses, and i get certain ringing voice through headset, BUT also the phone rings!!! Is this normal behaviour?
I can answer the call with headset's buttons, but is there a setting or something, so it wouldn't ring from the phone? Of course i can but it to silence mode, and that works, but am i missing something?

iPhone 3G OS 3.0 will not pair with new ...

Hey folks,

Just picked up a new Q-Three bluetooth headset as my puppy chewed my existing headset to pieces. At any rate, when I attempt to pair it up with my iPhone 3G running OS 3.0, the phone sees the headset, correctly identifies it and then asks me to enter the PIN. I enter the "0000" PIN as instructed in the documentation that came with the headset and the iPhone tells me "Incorrect PIN" every time I try to pair them. Funny thing is that my MacBook Pro sees the headset and pairs with it flawlessly. It doesn't even ask for the PIN to be entered. I'm using the headset right now to listen to music! Any thoughts as to why I get this "Incorrect PIN" message? Is there a way to have the iPhone bypass the PIN? Am I SOL?

Thanks much...

Acura TSX 2007 - Bluetooth doesn't work ...

I have an Acura TSX 2007. I can't initiate a call from my iPhone 3GS and have it connect via car's bluetooth, even though the iPhone and the car are paired. The call would connect but I can't hear the person on the other end, not through my car's speakers or through the iPhone - unless I give up and switch to "connect via iPhone" and talk on the phone instead.

Strangely, I can effortlessly listen to voice mail using visual voice mail through my car's bluetooth.

The only way I can initiate the call from the car is by tell the car a number to dial, but it's very inconvenient.

Worse yet, after this happens no sound comes out of the headsets for music or anything. The controls on the headset connect and function but no audio. Is this possibly a phone issue?

OK, here's the problem. I get in the car and the BT radio sees my phone and connects to it, ready to accept calls over the car hi-fi.
I start up my Speed Camera software and I decide to listen to the radio while I'm driving.
The problem is that all sound is now directed to the radio and as I'm listening to the radio and not the A2DP input, I can't hear the speed camera warnings.

The solution at the moment is to go into iPod, actually PLAY a song and then select the speaker for the output, stop playing the track, close iPod, go back and restart the Speed Camera app, then everything is as I want it.
Shouldn't there be a better way to do this? Have I missed it?
Should the phone remember that I don't want to play sounds through the radio until I reselect it maybe?
