Senuti - Copy music from iPod to Mac
Authored by: daren_mitchell on Aug 09, '06 11:59:10AM

WARNING!

I use this program all the time. It's great. Just be warned that it first copies music to your Music folder, then into iTunes.

The result is TWO copies of everything and the requirement of double the drive space. I've found no way of stopping it from doing this, or even to remove the loose music folders in the main Music folder.

If you don't have enough drive space it'll simply stop at some point with no warning message and without copying anything into iTunes!

Let it run, check to ensure that all copied into iTunes successfully, then delete the various loose folders in Music to free up some drive space.

Wow, I hadn't even noticed that! Thanks for the heads-up. I probably woule have scored it a bit lower if I'd noticed that (not so minor) issue.

Still a very useful app to have in the toolkit.

Thanks a million for the file-duplication tipoff.

I love Senuti, but hadn't been aware that it was poaching storage space on my iBook. I just recovered more than 10 percent of my drive capacity by purging the Music folder.

Cheers.

ive not had this problem with senuti filling up my music folder with 2 copies of everything. did you try adjusting the default save location in preferences??? I think if you change it to the "iTunes music" folder (rather than just the "music" folder per se), your dups problem will vanish.
