Re: fucking itunes blew away all my music
you deleted your music by using command line without know wtf you were doing. iTunes doesn't just delete shit. You were wrong in your syntax or steps. iTunes is the best media organizer/player available . You cannot name a better one. Since you're such a power user, i'm sure you had your music backed up anyway, so no big loss right?

But I can, even multiply so: J.River Media Jukebox, Guayadeque, Rhythmbox, Amarok, Winamp... In fact, name any player with basic library functions that doesn't forcibly reorganise your music collection in a shitty way, and you have a 'better one'.

It got in a state where it would delete them even if I manually copied to the folder (my intial test). No. . I dont have my music backed up. . I only back up system state and my active directory. I've never had a drive fail in a manner that I couldn't get my data out of it. I expected iTunes to work. I am kicking myself in the ass because I forgot about winamp. crApple sux as does shItunes Last edited by bas_I_am; 11-30-2010 at 02:22 PM. |

Re: fucking itunes blew away all my music
You have to check Keep Music Folder Organized for it to reorganize your music. User error again. If you don't want iTunes to organize your files, you don't have to.

Re: fucking itunes blew away all my music
shiTunes does a half assed job organizing files. . . half of the tracks I moved from my ipod were not renamed according to their tags.
Winamp plugin did it perfectly. Now to clean crapples shit out of my machine. |

Re: fucking itunes blew away all my music
Wow, that sounds incredibly dangerous. I've had several drives fail in manners where the data was unrecoverable, even by DriveSavers.

Re: fucking itunes blew away all my music
and just checked the drive that siTunes had an error writing to. nothing wrong with it.
I guess crapples developers don't know how to properly implement asynchronous IO. |

For clarification: I accept that Apple makes decent products - hardware as well as software - which 'just works'. Great for people who want that and nothing more. But for me as someone who likes to have control over small details of organisation, files and software, Apple usually is too restricting. Quote:
