3. Open VirtualBox and click on the “New” button in order to create a new virtual machine. Type in the new system name in “Machine Name”. Select “Microsoft Windows” as the OS type. Finally select the OS version (in this case, Windows 7) and click “Continue”.

4. Next, you will need to allocate the amount of RAM memory for your new virtual PC (512-1024 Mb for Windows 7 and 1518-2048 Mb for Windows 10 is enough). Click “Continue”.

5. Choose “Create a virtual hard drive now” and click “Continue”. Next, choose “VDI (VirtualBox Disk Image)” and click “Continue”.

   Now, select “Dynamically allocated” and click “Continue”. Finally, type a name for the new virtual hard drive and select the size (20-25 GB is sufficient). Click on the “Create” button.

6. Next, you will need to download and install the latest version of the VirtualBox Extension Pack from the VirtualBox binaries list. Once you have the Virtual Manager window open, click on the virtual machine you just created and click on the “Settings” button. From the new “Settings” window, navigate to the “Ports” tab and tick the “Enable USB 2.0 (EHCI) Controller” option. Click “OK”. Your virtual PC is now ready.

Customizing the backup structure

Whether you use Manual backup to transfer your tracks to iTunes or to PC, CopyTrans allows you to tweak the settings a bit and get the result you want. See what you can do below:

If you export to a folder on your PC, you will see a standard customization window:

In this window,

• “Folder name options” allows you to set the number and structure of subfolders for the music you export. If you want all the tracks to appear in one folder, just set the first folder to “Music” and leave the other fields blank. To categorize your music by albums, select Music first, choose “Albums” for the next field and leave the last one blank.

• “Import iPhone playlist” allows you to name all the exported files in the same way. If you want the names to start with the artist and then show the track name, choose “Artist” for the first field and “Title” for the second.

• “Limit the file name length like iTunes” sets a maximum of 96 characters for any file name.

• “File & folder naming preview” allows you to see how the exported files and folders will be organized on your PC under the current settings.

If you feel that the dropdown options are not for you, you can choose advanced customization options. The window will then look like this:

By playing with the tags CopyTrans provides and putting them in the right order with the dividers you need, you can construct pretty much any export layout!

After you have set the parameters to your liking, you can press “OK” and .

If you export to iTunes, your customization window will look like this:

Under “iTunes music folder” you can specify where to export your library. CopyTrans finds the folder automatically, so only change it if you are sure you’re doing the right thing.

“iTunes import” customization button will spawn the following window:

In this window, you can

• Select the type of track info that should be exported to iTunes;

• Choose whether to import your playlists;

• Add a prefix to all your playlists (e.g. 11-10-2009 Rock or David Rock), to mark the playlists from this specific export.

After you have set the parameters to your liking, you can press “OK” and .

Command line reference
