I just purchased Libra as I need to have iTunes seperate, unique libraries on an internal laptop drive and an external drive.
I opened Libra and created a new library on the external drive and made it the active library. when iTunes opened up, my entire library from the internal drive was in the new library. I expected a clean, empty library. Disappointing.
As a test, I made the external library active and imported a CD. I expected to see the new CD only in the external library. However, when I made the original internal drive library active, the new imported CD was there. Again, Disappointing
Is this expected behavior? I understood that Libra would allow me to create new empty iTunes libraries on external drives and that I could import music unique to that library.
Am I using Libra incorrectly or is this how it is supposed to work?
Thanks.

Cannot access my libraries - Version: 2.1, 10/18/2006 05:04PM PST

I've been using Libra for about a month and just installed the 2.1 version. After I did this I moved some songs around between my libraries. Everything seemed to work fine, but now when I try to open Libra I get the following message:
"Inconsistent library data. Libra detected inconsistent data that it could not fix. Please contact technical support."
I have sent several emails to Steve Roy (the developer) but have not received a reply.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I use a PC.
Thanks.

I believe most problems (experienced by a few users) through version 2.0.4 have now been solved in version 2.1.1.

I was trying to seprate my wife's music from my son's music since he is only 2 and she is importing music for him.
This program ROCKS!!! I tried Doug's script but it was not really working for me. I then found this and it works great!!!
Saved me from hours of frustration..
GREAT PROGRAM. I love the way that each user can have their own music and prefs. Too Cool..

this program saved my life! well that may be extreme... but i'm very happy. i couldn't get it to import my old libraries -- which were scattered throughout many backups. but it read my current just fine. when i made a new one, i added all of the music from all of the old libraries to one master. and now i can switch between the master and the standard hd one flawlessly... at last! thank you.
Import fails - Version: 2.0.4, 1/10/2006 09:04AM PST

The Import function does not work. It creates a new library in the ~/Music/Libra folder, but the newly-created library does not have any of the music from the folder from which the import take place.
I believe that this would be a useful utility for iTunes. But, as I tried to communicate with the author about issues, I received no reply whatsoever.
In its current form, I cannot recommend this to anyone.
Wish it worked for me-Libra left me high & dry & silent - Version: 1.2.4, 7/24/2005 11:47AM PST

OSX 10.39 iTunes 4.7.1
I installed Libra, renamed my iTunes ibrary, then created a new blank one. Now no matter what I select in Libra the blank one comes up. Without Libra running and using iTunes prefs, I can't access the library either. I can see the folder in finder, I sent 2 emails to the developer, no answer. If anyone can help me get back to my pre-Libra state I'd sure appreciate it.
I had been using Doug's applescript without problem. I removed the scripts folder before using Libra, but perhaps I caused a conflict. It is a 12 gig folder and I sure want access to it again.
