How do I take tunes with me again
Authored by: noahone on Jul 30, '02 05:44:09PM

This will be very usefull to me since my TiBook's internal drive isn't big enough to handle my massive music library. But... when I go somewhere with just my laptop, I'm going to want some tunes with me. How can I easily get some of the tunes that I have on an external drive back onto my internal drive without moving my entire library and without creating duplicate entries in my itunes library?

Hi, sorry, I didn't realize that my tip was published so
I didn't check back later.

I'm looking for a solution to this problem, too.

Since it is possible to write an Apple-Script that encodes songs
the user selected in iTunes using an external encoder (somebody did
this for Lame) it should be definitely posible to write a corresponding
script that just copies the selectes songs in some folder on the local disk.

In fact, what we are looking for is just the same functionality
that iPod users already have.

Since I don't have any clue about AppleScript I didn't write anything
like this myself, but maybe somebody else could do.
