Re: question for anybody with a 2016 macbook pro

Hi Jeff, I stand corrected. Sorry. I should have checked more carefully before posting that. My 2011 15" MBP only has the USB 2 ports, so I assumed the 2012 did too. That's what I get for making assumptions. My setup is similar to yours except I created a Fusion array with the 7200 RPM

Re: question for anybody with a 2016 macbook pro

Hi, If things haven't changed since my last check, even when you have it set to not copy to your iTunes Library, it will actually attempt the copy when importing from an external drive. If that drive happens to be a USB drive, then it will probably be quite slow on that machine as I believe

Re: question for anybody with a 2016 macbook pro

Hi Tim and E.T., I have my audio books library on a second hdd in my 2012 15-inch macbook pro. I have itunes preferences set to not copy. The way I add books to itunes is to launch itunes, hit command+o and point the file browser at my library. Itunes then goes into saying busy busy busy for

Re: question for anybody with a 2016 macbook pro

Just did this last night when I finished some Audiobook Builder projects, 10 gigs worth. Took about 5 minutes to copy to the Automatically Add folder then opened iTunes and it was done. I agree that breaking the 1 tb into smaller pieces is better. The Mac may need some tine outs to cool

Re: question for anybody with a 2016 macbook pro

Hi, What process are you using to import the AudioBooks? I just tested mine for fun, by importing 18 GB of AudioBooks, about 180 titles. The copying from the Desktop into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder took about 10 minutes or so, but other than that, iTunes did not cough or burp

Re: can't open programs with CON OPtion and space

Re: can't open programs with CON OPtion and space

When you are in application folder, the way to open an application is to either press command+down arrow, or command+o. When you want to open an application from the dock, then you press enter. Hope this helps. Andrew > On 17 Jan 2017, at 06:15, masood B wrote: > > hi.
