Hai m8's Maybe a strange question but i was wondering how i can get my itunes music records in a MS Access database. I want to make a database of all my music (50GB) but don't wan…

it's the Library file - though I'm not sure where that's stored on a Windows machine. You could open it up in a text editor to take a look...

There is an XML file which contains all the records but with i ugly link for example: file://localhost/G:/-=MUSIC%20COLLECTION=-/N.E.R.D/Fly%20or%20Die/05-n.e.r.d-she_wants_to_mo…

File->Export Song List (Format: Text) That should be importable into Access somehow. Why anyone would want to share a database of his CDs with his friends is beyond me, but I'…

I made a listing of all my songs on my desktop, using the Appleworks ... oops -- it occurs to me I used the spreadsheet program, not the database. Then Oh well -- I was just going…

First: Thnx for all the posts! It doesn't make a difference to export to *.txt, it gave the same results as a *.xml file. Now i gonna try to import the records in excell and repl…

You could use AppleScript to export it into a tab-delimited text file or similar, but really...

Thnx for your post. I made a text file of the XML file but i've still got the same problem. Did i mist something? gr mark

I'm not sure, because when I select text as the format, the output is a tabbed delimitted file. There's no xml. There is an option to select XML but I choose unicode or plain tex…

thnx for the reply.... i ctr-c the whole library and now i export it to access-> job done! But i still think about an php solution which automatic generate the list of music. …

Have you looked at iTunesCatalog?

looks very good..... i've got no recent mac system at the moment So i'm searching for a Windows solution

Perhaps you should, uh, try a Windows forum then.

Unfortunately, there is no counterpart to Access on Macs at the moment; the closest things would be FileMaker Pro and AppleWorks (not iWork), but these aren't exact matches. FMP is…

You've been right Angus_D but most Windows users don't wanna know something about itunes. I copied the library and put it in an acces database...that works Today i saw some php …
