  1. Library set up


    I keep all my movies music and pictures on a separate drive. In Windows 7 it simple to add these files to there corresponding library's but I cannot figure out how to do this with Windows 10. I am sure it is simple and I am just over looking something. Thanks in advance.

  2. Adding libraries

    I want to set up libraries for m digital scrapbooking kits. My question is once I set up a library folder, how do you add to the folder, if you can not add all the items at one time. Also, can you set up libraries with sub folders? (In order words, I have
    a folder for scrapbooking kits, the beneath that I have folders for the designers). I would like to follow the same type of format for libraries if possible. A Main Library Header and then sub libraries below that.

    Thanks for your response.

  3. Nokia Music available for Windows 8

    Hi there



    If you change the Music library settings and map it to your folder, Nokia Music should also find your music.



    You can change your music library settings by opening up the music library in windows explorer and then go in to library tools > Manage > Manage library

    Library set up

    Hi Kelly,
    Make sure all your music folders on the separate drive are organized properly into one folder, then:
    Open a library that you wish to 'fill', click Library Tools/Manage on the Menu Bar, click on 'Manage Library' in the 'drop down' ribbon, in the dialog window that appears click 'Add', in the next window navigate to the folder you want to add then click on 'Include folder', click OK on previous window.
