is there an app that i can use to edit all the information fields then import them into itunes? i hate adding songs, then finding out that 5 or 6 of the songs are not labeled and the genre are different, so it makes finding them hard.

Is there an app (preferrably free, but if I need to shell out for it I'll bite) that can convert between FLAC-ALAC, but preserves the data tagging? As in artist name, title, album etc.

View 24 Replies View RelatedI'm at my wits end trying to find a decent (and preferably cheap) solution for bulk tagging photos. Before I cave and end up buying Lightroom 3, I thought I'd check here first. My requirements are:
- Must be able to write metadata directly to the picture file (i.e. destructive edits, which rules out any Apple software)
- Provide easy options for filtering based on keyword tags
- Will build list of keywords from my existing photos, so I can reuse.
I'm looking for an application that will essentially allow me to tag words or sentences instead of files. As an example, I can place "Batman" in the document and tag it with "Movie", "Comic Book", "Super Hero", etc. In the future when I want to see all the comics I'm interested in, I can search "Comic Book" in the document and only "Batman" and other words tagged with "Comic Books" will come up. Just like punakea or tagbot but within a document.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI started playing around with indev's MailTags. The default tags are preceded with the "@" symbol. I've seen this done in other tagging systems but I'm not sure what its significance is, though I seem to remember it may have something to do with spotlight. Any idea why this is done?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of organizing my "Documents" directory and all the subdirectories within it and have decided that the use of file tagging may be beneficial. I've been playing around with programs such as Tagit but was wondering if there is a way to see what tag a file has in Finder. There is the comments field available when you look at file information popup but I don't see a ways to see tags. In Pathfinder you can access tags but it's convenient to access.

View 9 Replies View RelatedNew here and new to making websites. I am making a site to showcase my music, and iWeb was very simple to use. The problem is the only way I can put music on the site is if i drag the mp3 file to the page. After putting 15-20 songs on the page, it takes a very long time to load the page because of all the files. I would much rather host the songs on another site such as imeem.com and place the music player on the page. it would make the page load very quickly, as well as let the visitors hear the music.
i dont want to shrink the files because the quality is much worse. i need to find a way to put many streaming music players on the page. is there a way to do this? i've looked around the forums and found nothing, and iweb didn't have anything in the help files.
The new iPhoto supports Geo-tagging. Apple page says,
"This feature uses data from GPS-enabled cameras or the camera on iPhone to categorize photos by location and convert GPS location tags to common, user-friendly names."
Knowing nothing about how camera Geo-tagging works my question is if I buy a camera with a GPS built in how do I know iPhoto will read the location data. I was looking at the P6000 from Nikon but I have no clue if iPhoto will understand the lat/long data in the file. I called Apple and asked if they had a supported camera list and the two people I spoke to did not know what camera(other then the iPhone) were supported. Is the lat/long data from the iPhone pictures stored in the EXIF data or stored in some other way? Is the Geo-tagging of digital images by cameras a standard format?
I'd like to find a good file tagging solution for OS X and wondered if folks had suggestions. There are a bunch of these applications out there. I'll list a couple here to get the discussion going. There's:

Punakea [URL] (Freeware)
I just started using iTunes as my music database. For that reason I started to rip all my CDs. Much to my surprise iTunes doesn't find the metadata (for tagging) for a lot of my CDs. I know the data is on discogs and sometimes even on amazon. Is there a way to automatically retrieve the data from those alternative sources. Just like media monkey does? It is really annoying to manually tag all those CDs.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I get iPhoto installed at home last night and start tagging what I can. I have a bunch of albums posted to my Mobile Me gallery. I get to work and install iPhoto there. I have a small collection on my work Mac but it's all synced via Mobile Me so my published galleries show up on the left and contain the pictures even though they may not be stored locally. So I start face tagging some at work. When I go into the corkboard I notice that even though I tagged a bunch of photos of this person, only two were showing up in the corkboard, but I could still scrub through the ones I tagged before. I'm thinking something is broke until I realize the photos that I've tagged of this person were on the mobile me gallery and NOT on my local Mac. Now I wonder if this will sync back up with my Mac Pro at home.
View 1 Replies View RelatedEver since I upgraded to Itunes 9.0.2 I cannot tag handbrake m4v video files with new artwork. Is anyone else having this same problem? If I try to drag artwork from safari to the artwork tab it doesn't do anything. If I drag the artwork to my desktop first, then into the artwork tab, it drops the artwork like normal but after I hit OK the the file's artwork reverts to the screen shot from the beginning of the file. If I then go back into the file info the artwork is gone. It's as if Itunes is rejecting the artwork. I have tried this with several different video files and several different pieces of artwork and no luck.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am writing a doctorate, mostly based on archival sources (being a historian), and recently noticed how the inefficiency of my notetaking seems to have at least some degree of negative impact on my research. In previous years, writing shorter papers and articles, I mostly replicated the structure of sources in my notes - thus documents were described under archival units etc. Why perhaps not efficient, it was nonetheless perfectly acceptable. However, this time, having read a few thousand pages and noted down a few hundred of documents and sources, I find the old system completely inadequate - since the archival structure is itself semi-formal and the division not perfect, looking for information within my notes is getting almost as tedious as reading the sources itself.
I would therefore love to get a decent application that would allow me to take notes (mostly text, but graphics, pdfs, links etc would be appreciated as well), and tag them accordingly. This would allow for easy access to information. A welcome feature would be syncing between my imac and macbook - right now I am forced to only use the latter, as updating the ever changing 'academia' folder manually every single time got old fast. So, would you have any suggestions? I realise no freeware will do this and I'm willing to pay good money for the described feature set (provided a single licence would allow me to use it on multiple computers). I am also interested in good writing software, as Pages will only get you so far once the document grows over a certain number of chapters, pages and footnotes, but note taking takes priority.
I just purchased my 2.66 15" uMBP today and it's been a few months since I've owned a Mac and I forgot all of the old applications I had on it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a Movies/TV Shows Cover Art/Tagging Mac program similar to Tuneup for music? I already have the movies in my iTunes library but they don't have the proper tags or cover art. Its even more important for episodes, I don't want to have to go through every one and edit everything. Please let me know if there is a program to do the abovementioned just like tuneup.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I go to tag a movie encoded with 0.9.4 x86_64 with any program it does not work. For a while MetaX would corrupt the file. Through searching I found that if I checked the 'Large file size 64bit' check box it would play the video, but no audio. If I open the .m4v file in VLC everything works fine, audio and video. I tried Vindalin (or whatever) and iFlicks with the same results. Actually when I ran the script with iFlicks it didn't add the album art of anything in iTunes, but same story...video, but no audio. 95% of the movies I have are encoded with Handbrake and from what I have searched this seems to be the common link.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just found out about pollux [URL] from TUAW and unfortunately I found out a little too late. It seems to be this great app that works similar to Shazam on the iPhone. It reads through your iTunes library and fixes all your songs to have proper titles, albums, album art, etc. The servers are down according to the site. I don't know how long this has been the case and don't know how long it's going to last. Does anyone have any FREE alternatives that they know of?
