iTunesHandler - Music export tool for iTunes (Mac, Win, Linux)

Ondrej Rafaj on 2009.12.07 20:55:41

Multiplatform (Win, Mac, Linux) tool, I've build when I wanted to backup all my music from iTunes. iTunes has quite a mess in the library and I've been unable to just copy all the files over. It just helps you to export MP3's from iTunes onto any location on your machine ...

iTunesHandler is another cool free adobe air application which lets you copy any of your iTunes songs from your iTunes library to anywhere else on your hard drive, you can transfer songs, album and mp3 with this tool.

It will automatically scan the iTunes library and by default will export the selected songs your desktop location in windows, it is very easy and simple application will transfer all music from iTunes to a specific folder location.

Installation details inside :)

iTunesHandler main window screengrab

Installation

 

1.) Download and install Adobe AIR (that's something like a Flash but it works as an application on your computer) ... Adobe AIR. I do recommend to do this even if you have some older version of AIR installed as it may be older than you think :)

 

2.) Download the Application from Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/ihandler/

 

3.)Run the installer like any other app

 

4.)Start exporting your music onto your Creative, Emgeton or any other mp3 player than iPod :)

 

!!! For users with computers in a different language than English: !!! Once the program starts, you have to locate the iTunes library file, this one should be in your Document/Music folder and has a name: iTunes Music Library.xml

 

 

The Apple support page for locating the iTunes library file is here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

    I tried the application with great anticipation because I want to tranfer a playlist to a flash drive and play the songs in my car. I downloaded and was succesfull in installing the program. I have windows XP in spanish so I looked for my .XML file and copy/pasted the i tunes library path. (the change button does NOT for me open a window where I can click my way to the .XML file (the export path change button works just fine though)) The files I have do NOT load ever... always a big blank.... what can I do? My path line for the .XML file is C:Documents and SettingsUserMis documentosMi músicaiTunes

    Please help!! I am going on a road trip and would very much like to hear the music!

    Thanks

    Try to copy (not move, as you don't want to fuck up your library :))) the library file from the original location to c:mytunes.xml and than set this as a new path ... it should work as the iTunes XML file contains full paths to your music :)
