VERY sorry. I was depressed, alone and upset. THIS LIST REQUIRES THAT YOU BOTTOM POST! Sorry, I'm on lists where you have to top post and I was just etting it wrong. Not surprising on this horrible day. I know it's a constant argument but top posting is more logical and less messy. you get to your answer first then, if any one is interested, they can read why it lead to the answer at the bottom. But people think different ways and have their own idea of what is right, however, illogical it may be. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: iTunes
Just a message from Doug... is MusicMatch still active? It seems ever since Yahoo took it over, it went in obscurity. Version 10 is the last know version. Actually there used to be a Mac version and is still available. http://www.tucows.com/preview/204005 . You can still get all the Windows versions. Version 8 and 8.1 seemed buggy. Version 9 wasn't too bad but version 7.5 was the best and still works and flawlessly burns CD's. I believe it used Roxio's burning program. I like the way it groups complete CD's and how you can expand and collapse them. It makes the library very neat and tidy. I still use it. http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=mmatch Not exactly sure what you are talking about Ray, iTunes has about any kind of display you might want. If you are talking about a small window which displays the current song, just press the green button and the display changes to that the green button is not exactly what I was look for. Most mp3 players on a PC have a Now Playing window. iTunes might have something like that but I can't seem to find it. It's not obvious. As you play each song it automatically goes to this Now Playing window. Once you are finished you can burn from that auto generated playlist, although if you want to save it, you have to drag it over and save it as a playist. MediaMonkey has been my favorite mp3 for awhile now. My favorite still to this day is MusicMatch 7.5. This was MusicMatch peak, it went downhill from there, in my opinion. MusicMatch 7.5 lacked some important features like CD-text I think I understand what you are talking about now, but no, I don't know if iTunes can do that unless there is an Applescript available to do it. Might be a utility program like that somewhere, but I haven't looked for anything like that. I know I use RadioLover to do something similar, it will save streamed songs to a directory and sometimes I burn those to a CD for listening to in the car. Of course, come to think of it that list is also available in iTunes. I have burned those CD's from there as well. May give MediaMonkey a try next time I'm over on the Windows side of things.

iTunes library / database suggestion?
I went looking for a cataloguing app for my audio files that would create a simple database that would list Artist - Album - Track - Song (possibly Year - Bitrate - Notes) and various interviews and radio shows with information to be determined, without the need to play the files within the database. I ended up back at iTunes, somewhat reluctantly. I don't want one big Library that includes every sound file so I'm creating multiple Libraries. However, some of my existing Libraries currently has Podcasts in them and I would like to move all the Podcasts to the same Library without needing to download the files again for that new Library to see the actual files. When I physically move the various folders into the new Podcast Library, the new Library can't see the files, and resubscribing to the feeds still isn't seeing the existing podcasts. iTunes still wants me to download the files again. Is there a way around this? Is there a database app that would take the files as named (Artist-Year-Album-Track-Song) and allow me to choose how to look at what's in the database, ie if I wanted to know how many times I left my heart in San Antonio appears in the database, and from there which Artists and on which Albums? I don't need the ability to play a file from within the database itself. I currently use DiskTracker to catalogue some disks but it doesn't allow for re-ordering of individual items within a disc.

I haven't been privileged to the genius of iTunes 8 (I've ordered Tiger for my PowerMac 8500/9500, and I haven't touched my Leopardized Quicksilver 2002 yet) ... but is all your artwork coming from the iTunes Store? When it searches to Get Album Artwork ... would it replace that which is already there? Just curious ... Part of it came from wherever iTunes gets the artwork from when it searches, but a lot of it was missing, so I took the time, a lot of time, to make sure each song had the proper artwork. I have about 4500 tunes in my personal library and needless to say was a bit ticked when a lot of it was missing. I am happy to report that some of it has come back as the songs play (I use party shuffle when I listen), but some hasn't returned. I have been watching for missing artwork as the songs appear in the display and for the missing ones I have been going into the library and pulling up that album. Usually by clicking on info for the first song in the album, the artwork will then reappear, but that hasn't worked for every one that is missing and I suppose I will just have to find a good image on the web yet again to fix them. In 7.7.1, some aiff files would accept iTunes Artwork, some not. And I had to allow copying of those aiffs to the iTunes Library folder, before it would accept artwork from any source. Guess going from 7.7.1 to 8 offers more surprises ... Bill Connelly Now I'm curious as to why your collection is in the form of aiff? Being a musician is your ear that good to hear the difference between aiff and 192 bit MP3? I would think a decent sized collection would take some serious HD space using that format.

This puzzles me a bit. What exactly do you mean by the iTunes Library area? Just putting it in your library doesn't mean you have to move the actual files. Under preferencesadvanced just uncheck the box which directs iTunes to copy files added to the library to the music folder. This is always the first thing I do on any new OS install. My files reside on my file server back in another room so naturally I don't want them moved either. Yes ... I'm able to hear the difference ...

Bill Connelly Also agree on this, but so far my ears have not been able to tell the difference between an MP3 encoded at 192 bits and the real thing. Now I can definitely hear a difference at 128 and 160 sometimes, but never been able to at 192. I use a Sansa e280 mp3 player at work, upgraded to 16 gb, and in order to accommodate my entire collection, I found it necessary to re- encode to music into 96 bit wma files.

Yes ... I'm able to hear the difference ... I usually encode at 256 bit mp3, too ... mainly because I just don't want to miss anything ... and I walk my dog using over the ear headphones ... yes, a bit geeky looking ... I'm going for sound, not sight ... I also believe there are sounds that we humanoids cannot hear ... that may possibly push around those we can hear ... so affect what we do hear ... Well ... something like that ... Did you know that iTunes and import music and leave it in aiff format? I have been slowly (very slowly) ripping my LPs using a decent Denon turntable and Hafler preamp and an iMic. I save them in aiff format and import them into iTunes in that format. Now I will admit that I do not have an MP3 player so the space issue is not as critical, but I can hear the difference between a ripped file at 192 and the original aiff burned to a CD and played in my car (at least when stopped). And yes, I also believe the sounds and harmonics above and below the range of human hearing do affect what you actually hear.

Re: Artwork missing in iTunes 8.0

Another thing. It only does the specific playlist and selection, so to do your entire music collection you need to be in your Music and then select all and only THEN run the iTunes Art-less script. I'm happy to report that all my iTunes artwork is now back in place. Ended up only having to download a couple of images. Just had to click the next button about a million times and click on get info when an image was missing. This got most of them back, but sometimes I had to play around with show in finder and then click on play in iTunes. Now the random song switch has returned. Song will be playing fine and then all of a sudden in the middle of the song it will switch to the next song. I give up, Just a message from Doug... --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: ringtones by itunes?
'Salright. I used to have a motorola razr, didn't have any trouble moving my mp3 ringtones to it. This samsung--well, I hate change, and I hate learning how to renavigate through my phone...Not really happy with it, but I'm past the 15 day return period. Guess I'll learn to live with it. I do like the broadband internet access. Better than my 56k phone line.

ringtones by itunes?
Shot in the dark here. I recently acquired a samsung hue and I want to export some ringtones to it. I am using my pismo to manufacture some ringtones in the mp3 format, but haven't been able to get the phone to accept it. Just wondering if anyone out there has any knowledge on this?

Re: ringtones by itunes?
Jason I have no experience of the Samsung Hue, but I use my Macs for transfering mp3s and ringtone/mp3s I have made to my Nokia phones. I have used the same procedure for a Nokia 6280, 6288, N73, E61, E71, 6500 slide, a Sony Ericsson Z750i and a bunch of others I cannot remember the model numbers for. I click the bluetooth menu at the top, click send file (if it is already paired in Leopard you can send directly to phone without having to search for the device) and it will search for devices. Select the device and off it goes (you might have to confirm on the device you want to accept). I did a quick search on Google and there are a number of people who have had problems sending files from a computer via bluetooth. Well, I hope that helps and if I have underestimated your computer knowledge I am sorry.
