Using applescripts you can automatically add your music to itunes. This is good tutorial if you have mp3s backed up on dvd or aquire music other than ripping it from cds in Itunes itself.
1. Copy this script and paste it with in the script editor (can be found in Directory Applications/Applescript/ )
Copy text inside stars
****
on adding folder items to thisFolder after receiving theseFiles
repeat with thisFile in theseFiles
tell application "iTunes"
copy (add thisFile) to newTrack
-- the "newTrack" variable is a reference to the added track
-- which could be used for further processing in iTunes
end tell
end repeat
end adding folder items to
****
2. Then go to file save as add itunes.scpt ***save the file in the following directory Library/Scripts/Folder Actions scripts
3. Navigate to the directory where your mp3s are stored I use the default folder on Os X User/Music/Itunes/Itunes Music (replace user with your own username)
4. Right click or ctrl click on Itunes Music and attach a folder action. This is where you choose add itunes.scpt
5. Now after that any folder with mp3's that you add to your itunes music folder should be automatically added into itunes.
Give it a test and let me know if it works for you enjoy.
I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THE APPLESCRIPT AS I FOUND IT ON THE NET. I WISH I COULD FIND THE CREATOR SO I COULD GIVE HIM CREDIT FOR A GREAT SCRIPT.
