How to move your iTunes library to an external drive
Apples iTunes Match service lets you store all your music in the cloud, but some people prefer to have a local copy of all their music instead. Its free, and doesnt disappear if your internet connection goes down.
You might have thousands of tracks youve ripped from CD over the years, for example. This is the more conventional way to use iTunes and its great, until your library starts to get too big for your hard drive. And with more and more people using ultraportable MacBook Airs, storage capacity can be an issue.
Luckily, iTunes makes it fairly easy to move your library to an external drive, even one connected to your Wi-Fi router. This can be a regular USB drive, for which youre best off using an Apple AirPort Extreme router, or a NAS (network attached storage) drive. These have special abilities, like being able to broadcast a music collection to any copies of iTunes on your network.
The clever thing about using iTunes Server on a NAS is that these drives tend to be very high capacity, and can be shared between lots of users. The beauty of having a shared, wireless music library is that it can be much bigger than one you would store on your Mac, and more advanced users can control who accesses it by tweaking the shared drive settings.
At a simpler level, you might just want to access the library yourself, in which case all you need is an AirPort Extreme and a USB hard drive.

How to move your iTunes library
1. Gather your files
If youve been adding music to a library for a while, it can be worth forcing iTunes to copy everything into a single folder prior to moving it, to make sure you dont lose or unlink music files. Go into iTunes Preferences > Advanced tab and turn on Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized.2. Consolidate the library
Now go into File > Library in iTunes and choose Organize Library. From the window, tick Consolidate Files and press OK. This forces iTunes to copy music files that currently exist outside of your root music folder into that folder, making it possible to safely copy it in the next step.3. Copy the library
Now connect the USB drive to your Mac or to your AirPort Express, in which case you will need to use AirPort Utility to identify it as a shared volume. Go to your Home directory > Music and find the folder called iTunes. Copy this folder to a sensible location on your USB drive.4. Reset the library location
Back in iTunes, go to Preferences > Advanced and click to change the library location. Point iTunes at the location where you just copied it, and it will see the library over the network. Also, go into System Preferences > Users and Groups and make the networked drive auto-mount on login.5. Use a NAS
Here we have a NAS drive connected to our AirPort Extreme using an Ethernet cable, with the NAS manager software installed. Drag a folder of music over to the drive and place it inside a pre-created folder called Music. You could also drag your iTunes library folder to this location.6. Log into the NAS
Log into the NAS control panel. In the case of Buffalo drives its done by right-clicking on it and choosing Settings. You may have to log in using your administrator password. Once logged in, click to the Extensions section for a tab called MediaServer. Theres a section called iTunes Server.7. Turn on iTunes Server
Click to enable iTunes Server. You may also want to customise the location of the shared music folder: click Modify Settings and use the Public Folder dropdown to select any drive folders. Here, weve pointed it at the Music folder we created earlier. Click Save and return to iTunes.8. Access the share
Back in iTunes, look in the sidebar on the left under the Shared tab and you should now see your NAS device. These can be played by anyone on your network with access to the NAS. iTunes may not find artwork for the files since this relies on signing in with an Apple ID, but they will play fine.

Google Nexus 5 release nears as retailers drop Nexus 4
A Google Nexus 5 release date could be with us in the near future, as the existing Google Nexus 4 is dropped by retailers.
With the white Google Nexus 4 yesterday being confirmed as ‘sold out’ on the Google Play store, the LG manufactured handset has now started to disappear from retailers, suggesting a replacement could be on the way in the form of the much rumoured Google Nexus 5.
One of the first UK retailers to stock the Google Nexus 4 outside of Google’s own retail channels, Carphone Warehouse has today dropped the Android 4.2 launching handset without warning, a potential sign of new things to come from Google’s Mountain View campus. The seeming finality of the retailer’s decision is something of a surprise, with the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One rival removed without trace from the company’s website.
Although far from the only UK retailer to offer the Google Nexus 4, Carphone Warehouse’s decision to drop the Google Nexus 4 poses many questions, with the high-end handset with a wallet-friendly price tag only recently overcoming stock constraints to become a readily available option.
A device widely expected to launch Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, a selection of Google Nexus 5 rumours have done the rounds in recent months, bringing with them a selection of claimed specs.
According to recent reports, the Google Nexus 5 will pair its new Android OS with a range of high-end, iPhone 5 toppling specs. It has been suggested the currently unconfirmed phone will land with a 5.2-inch OLED display with a 1920 x 1080p Full HD display in tow.
On top of this, further Google Nexus 5 rumours have pointed to a phone with a 2.3GHz quad-core processor, 3GB of RAM and the option of 16GB, 32GB or 64GB storage capacities. The Google Nexus 4 was criticised for only being made available with 8GB or 16GB of internal storage. A 16-megapixel rear-mounted camera and a hearty 3300mAh Lithium-Polymer battery have also been mooted.
Back in May LG, manufacturing partner of the Google Nexus 4 seemed to rule itself out of contention to produce the upcoming Google Nexus 5. Speaking on the possibility of back-to-back Nexus dealings, Kim Wong, Vice President of LG Mobile in Europe, stated: “The Nexus 4 was a great success despite the production problems for us and Google. However, we do not need such a marketing success again.”

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom pictured in all its chubby glory
More pictures of the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom have appeared online, confirming the handset’s chunky form factor.
The chubby camera-centric smartphone has appeared online again, confirming that yesterday’s leaked Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom photos are in fact legitimate. They further showcase the rather large 16-megapixel camera wielding edition of the slim Samsung Galaxy S4.
Looking somewhat like a Samsung Galaxy Camera and Samsung Galaxy S4 hybrid, the S4 Zoom is a sizeable smartphone that has yet to be confirmed by the South Korean electronics manufacturer, but could potentially be another edition of the Samsung Galaxy S4.
Samsung’s flagship smartphone already features a 13-megpizel auto focus camera with flash and zero-shutter flash, but the Galaxy S4 Zoom would boost that to a 16-megapixel snapper with optical zoom.
The Zoom will be one of a number of Samsung Galaxy S4 variants on offer, complementing the waterproof Samsung Galaxy S4 Active and reduced spec Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.
Due to launch at Samsung’s London-based press event on June 20, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is rumoured to be “Samsung’s last product of the Galaxy S4 range”.
The Galaxy S4 Zoom should pack a 4.3-inch qHD display, which is quite a downgrade from the Samsung Galaxy S4’s 5-inch Super AMOLED display with 1920 x 1080p Full HD resolutions.
Rumoured to play host to a 1.6GHz processor, it won’t be as powerful as the 1.9Ghz quad-core SoC inside the Samsung Galaxy S4.
As with the other Samsung Galaxy S4 editions, the camera-centric option will run on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI.
It will be interesting to see how many millimetres the Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom will add to the 7.9mm thickness of the Samsung Galaxy S4, and how much additional weight that optical zoom camera will carry. If it becomes too cumbersome, we can’t see it being an attractive alternative to the flagship Samsung Galaxy S4 come launch.
