FAQs - MyOnlineMusicLibrary.com
How much does
your service cost? Please see our Pricing page
for current prices. If you have special needs that require the program
to be modified, we can give you a price estimate. Just let us know
what you want.
Why is there
a monthly fee? Our online music library program is running
on an expensive server with redundant connections to Internet
backbone providers. We also have regular tape backups to protect
your data. The monthly fee will help us to provide a quality service
and allow us to add additional features in the future.
Do you accept
credit cards? How do you bill? When you register, you will
receive an invoice via e-mail specifying the service you have selected
and the price. The invoice will have a link to pay online securely
with your credit card (or you may mail a check). As soon as the invoice
is paid, we will set up your password-protected area with all of
the necessary files. All
future bills will be sent via e-mail-- we do not mail invoices.
I would like
my online music library pages to look different. Can you customize
my pages? Certainly. We charge an hourly rate to make changes
to the base program.
How is my Music Library
saved? Your
music information is saved in a Microsoft Access database. For
a nominal charge, we will make
a backup copy of your Access database and send it to you. You would
have to own a copy of Microsoft Access to open or use the database.
You
may
download a copy of your music library in a Microsoft Excel format
from your administration menu.
Why should I go to the trouble
of entering all of my music into an online library? Our
program is intended to make your music library more organized and
to allow
you to easily find any piece by library number, title, grade,
composer, and more. It will take some time for you to get everything
entered; however, we feel that it is worth every minute. This
program was written for a band director/ private music instructor
who at one time (before this program was written) had a very disorganized
music library. We have created the program online so that music instructors
would be able to check their online library at home or at work (a
computer or wireless device with Internet access is required.)
I don't have time to enter
all of my music titles. Do you have any suggestions? We suggest
that find a high school or college music student who
can enter your titles for you if you do not want to enter the
information yourself. Since
our program may be used from any computer with Internet access,
trustworthy students could enter your titles from their
home at their convenience. If
you live in the Austin or San Antonio, Texas area, we may be able
to find students who can
help.
How do you recommend that
we organize our library? Our program is
designed to organize your music by library number.
We recommend that each piece of music be stored in an individual filing
envelope.
(Filing envelopes may be purchased from many major music stores,
such as Southern
Music Company.) When you enter a new title, the
program will provide you the unique library number to write on the
envelope. You simply write the library number along with any other
information you want on
the envelop, and file it. You may find that hundreds of your
music titles fit in only a few feet of shelf space, and you will
no longer have stacks of music laying around or have trouble finding
music!
Do you have a sample program
on your Web site that we can test before we register? Yes,
there is a sample version
on our Web site.You will be able to see how easy the program is to
use by adding, editing, and deleting titles in the sample as well
as exploring many other features. Note: we are happy to customize
the program for an additional charge to fit your needs.
Can I upload digital copies of my music
into the database? Due to copyright
restrictions, we will not allow scanned music to be saved in your
Music Library.
The purpose of our program is to help you to organize your sheet
music library and to find your music quickly, so
you should not need to scan your music.
