Hi There, Please clarify what you mean by, Drag & Drop & what keystrokes are actually involved! As I have been told numerously, this can't be done. Thank you...

Wouldn't it be possible to drag and drop with voiceover? I'v seen such feature but don't know how it works. /A > 27 jan 2015 kl. 00:13 skrev Tim Kilburn <[email protected]>: > > Hi, > > It is actually a very clean system if you let iTunes manage the organization of things like it's meant to do.

There are folders in your home directory like Desktop, Documents, Music, Pictures, Movies etc. These are built-in folders meant for things like iPhoto, iTunes, iMovie etc. > > . within the Music folder, as mentioned by Sabahattin, there is the parent iTunes folder which is meant to contain all iTunes related media. So, within the iTunes parent directory are the sub-directories for iTunes Library database files, Album Artwork and the iTunes Media folder. This iTunes Media folder logically, contains all the iTunes related media files including your music, movies, TV Shows, Ring Tones, Audio Books etc. > > . If you allow iTunes to do its magic, it will place all media in the appropriate locations keeping everything neat and tidy. Anything that happens to be mis-labelled such as a ripped movie or TV Show can be fixed from within the Get Info dialog in iTunes itself and the app will clean up some more. > > . Third party apps that you use to rip media often place things in other locations, not necessarily logical to iTunes. For example, your movie ripping app places the ripped movies or TV shows all into the Movies folder in your home directory. This Movies folder is actually meant for iMovie or other media creation kinds of apps. > > . You can certainly import these ripped movies into iTunes and, as long as you let iTunes do its OCD organizational thing, it will make a copy in the appropriate location within the iTunes Media world, and life will be good. Once that import is done, you can delete the original copy from the Movies folder. > > . In the sighted world, one would have dragged the movie or TV Show into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder within the iTunes Media folder and no extra deleting would need to be performed. In the VO world, you could cmd-c to Copy the movie/TV Show, then cmd-option-v to Move it into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder and the same thing would happen without the need for the extra step of deleting the media file from the original location. > > Most problems occur when we try to out-think iTunes and do things in a different manner than iTunes is meant to. Not to say that this isn't possible, it just means that you occasionally will have some issues when managing iTunes media in other ways. > > Hope this makes some sense. > > Later... > > Tim Kilburn > Fort McMurray, AB Canada > >> On Jan 26, 2015, at 13:00, The Believer <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Still not getting what I want with iTunes on the Mac.
