My mother's PC just crashed (shocker), and with it went her iTunes library. She has everything on her iPod, though, and I'm wondering if she can load the content to the empty library onto an older Powerbook G4 I gave her. Since she's already synced with one iTunes library, she probably can't do this but if anyone knows a hack or work-around, let me know. It's worth noting that she hasn't enabled disk-usage on her iPod.

Why is my iPod now only half full (when ...
I recently suffered a failure of the hard disc on my Mac; the disc was replaced and the machine restored to its factory condition from my original DVD discs.
My iTunes music is kept on an external hard disc and so wasn't affected. I therefore replaced the iTunes library file to my hard disc, from a backup, and all should have been well.
I did have a probem that iTunes failed to find some of my music. but I've now resolved this, with the help of another user on here.
My problem is that my iPod, previously virutally full, is now only about half full - but as far as I can tell, there are no tracks missing!
Could it be that my newly-installed copy of itunes in copying the tracks to the iPod at a much lower sample rate than before, even though it is using the exact same music files.
Anyone know what is going on here?
Thanks

Removing Album Artwork from iPod (not ...
So I've upgraded my OS, using the new version of iTunes, and I discover that my iPod (5th gen.) has album artwork on it suddenly. In the past, I've set the preference to NOT copy the artwork over even though I do have artwork in iTunes.
I want to keep my artwork in iTunes, but I do not want it on my iPod. The setting that used to control this seems to be gone and I cannot find any evidence that there's another way to remove the artwork from my iPod.
To make matters worse (in my opinion), it's not copying over all of the artwork. Just some of it. Albums with artwork in iTunes don't show up with artwork on the iPod. If it's going to do something I don't want it to do (because I don't have a choice), then it should certainly do it correctly.
Thanks.

Ever since I upgraded to Itunes 9 I cannot copy (burn) a music CD that can be played on any CD player device other than the MacBook. I tried changing the format preference from .aif to .mpg4a but it still only creates CD's that cannot play. I am not pirating anything. I copied my own bought retail music CD's onto the MacBook and gave away the CD's to eliminate clutter. In the past I have been able to copy them for my own use for the car or the bedroom where there is no computer available. This is so frustrating. Please help!

Using iTunes to Download Album Art ...
I hope this hasn't already been asked and answered, but I couldn't find any threads.
What are the requirements to use iTunes' built-in method of obtaining album art from the store?
Does it simply match up Artist and Album terms? Or does it check other fields for consistency?
I've been using GimmeSomeTune (which only matches Artist/Album) and its been great, but if the same feature is built into iTunes, I may as well use that... the problem is, that it doesn't seem to be working on some albums and I am not sure what is missing. Thanks.

Compose own liner notes and include on ...
Hi,
It's great that iTunes allows you to print a CD insert containing a song list for a play list.
I'd like to compose my own liner notes for some of the CDs I burn and include them in the CD insert.
Does anyone know of a a plugin that does this? I realize that I can create such a doc in a word processor, but it would be nice to have the song list automagically taken and formatted from the selected play list and then allow me to add liner notes and print them together.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to permanently associate the insert with the play list, so that whenever I bring up the play list I can print the associated CD insert.
I don't know anything about iTunes plugins or even whether the iTunes architecture is open enough to allow this, but thought it would be worth asking.
Thanks,
-W.

Remove the 'files not found' entries ? ...
I had a Time Mchine 'tombstone' yesterday and have had to recover my iTunes library off a backup copy. As I don't have the TC back yet, I have rebuilt the iTunes library on a portable hard drive and its been re-importing the content from the backup onto the drive now for about four hours, and all is going well.
I had to create a new location for the library on the portable drive, and as the files are moved across, their entries are appearing, but the 'missing' entries are still there for the files which should have been on the TC library location. They have a little grey circle next to them with an exclamation mark - the 'original file not found' warning.
How do I get rid of these or is it just a case of manually deleting them ?

Importing playlists creating duplicate ...
I recently moved my entire music library to my new MBP using iTunes Home Sharing. (Simply copying everything over in the Finder didn't work--that's what I tried first.) Home Sharing, of course, does not import playlists from the shared library. I manually recreated my Smart Playlists, which wasn't too hard. I then exported all of my manual playlists to be imported on the new MBP.
The problem is, when I import a playlist, iTunes apparently thinks some tracks are missing, even though I have verified that all my tracks are present, and so copies the missing tracks over through Home Sharing, resulting in duplicate tracks. If I simply delete the duplicates, it removes those tracks from the newly imported playlists, defeating the purpose of importing the playlists in the first place.
How can I import these playlists without having either duplicated tracks or missing tracks?

iTunes account from Serbia ...
Hello,
This is my first post here, so I would like to offer everyone my greetings and basically say hi, and thank you to Apple and its founders Steve and Woz.
Since I live in country were even God said goodbye one day and left, leaving the light on, I can still pretty much see what is going on in the world today. I am an Apple fan since 2000, I have first iTunes ever published for PC in my Install folder on HD. I got it, installed it, and I have been using it ever since. From than I have spread the word, and program, to friends and their PC. Few of them were the first time computer users, and when I show them iTunes and Winamp. Since people here use it, on PCs 99% of them does. Boy did they hated Winamp after my short presentation, that's all I'm going to say.
Take in consideration that English is not native language, and by tgat the "victory" was even more meaningful. Just shows how iTunes is built logically, so that even non-computer savvy people can use it.
Today, after 6 years of using it (starting in 2003.) I think its time I get a chance to register my first and only iTunes account.
I know I cant do it, since Serbia is not in the country list, but I am humbly requesting you (administrators, moderators, sales persons, Steve himself) that you enable a possibility for me.
I am registered Apple Developer Connection user, and have my Apple ID (well its obvious, I couldn't use the forum otherwise) I tried to register last night, even my credit card got processed. I was charged with one euro (1

Loud Static with 5.1 surround audio in ...
Hello,
I'm using a Griffin FireWave firewire audio device with a Logitec analog 5.1 speaker system. I've gotten great surround sound in other applications (QuickTime, WoW, etc...), but when I try to turn on 5.1 audio on a HD TV show in iTunes, I get a very loud, harsh static noise, and nothing else. If I open the file in QuickTime and turn off the stereo audio channel and turn on the 5.1 channel, I get nothing. Silence.
I just recently bought this brand-new 24" iMac (it's awesome, by the way). My old 20" white iMac had the same problem. I'd had other problems with iTunes on that computer (such as not being able to burn CDs from iTunes) so I figured, brand new computer, skip the Migration Assistant, just transfer over files, might fix the problem. No such luck. Of course, it fixed the CD burning problem, still no 5.1 in iTunes.
Contacting Griffin tech support seemed futile, as they no longer make FireWaves, and their software driver hasn't been updated in forever... support page is pretty, "make sure your speakers are plugged in"... and it seems like the company is steering in another direction.
The FireWave itself is very simple. Not many options, not very hard to understand. It does the job, though. 5.1 has been very nice with the FireWave in all other respects. Audio/MIDI Setup works fine with the speaker test. Great sound. Easy to use. HD Apple movie trailers sound fantastic! And I've yet to see ANY other options for connecting 5.1 analog speakers to an iMac.
If anyone else has had this problem, it'd be good to hear it, because searching the forums, I haven't seen any other posts about this. I'd love to know that I'm not alone.
If anyone can help me find a solution, that'd be amazing. I'm a pretty avid user... I had a Mac SE... I used ResEdit! I've been at this a while! This problem has me totally stumped.
Alternatively, if anyone knows of another solution for getting real 5.1 audio using analog speakers on an iMac, please let me know.
I love this speaker system! I don't want to have to replace it!
Thanks for any input,
-G.

Moving iTunes library to a network drive ...
I am in the process of combining all of my family's music from different computers in the house to one music folder on a networked drive. Some of the computers run Windows and some Mac. The way I have done it is just copy the contents of one computer's iTunes folder onto the driv and then just putting in the music from the other computers into the iTunes music sub-folder of the iTunes folder. I have all the music in there now. Now I just need to tell iTunes the location of the new iTunes music folder. I know how to do that, I'm just wondering if the playlists that have been created with the various computers will keep all the songs in them after the music folder move. If not, is there an alternate way I could do the folder move to preserve the playlists on all computers? Also, when I change the location of the music folder within iTunes am I going to have to re-ad the music by hand or will it automatically do it?
Thanks in advance!

So, all the video content I've purchased over the years is no longer playable on the display I have connected to my MacBook Pro. And the cable was run through the walls when the house built, so there's no changing the cable even if that were a solution.
According to Apple Support, this is meant to prevent people from pirating content. I am presuming Apple has no issue with us watching on a connected monitor, yet a totally legit in-home use is now no longer permissible. Sadly, my days of purchasing video on iTunes are over. Sadly because it was a great service while it lasted.

Home sharing iPhone/iPodTouch problems ...
Hi all,
We've just set up a home sharing in iTunes (both 9.0, both Safari 4.03) and a strange thing is happening.
We can copy music back and forth between the computers, even play music off the other computer - nice!
When it comes to apps things are somehow more confused.
I have an iPod Touch, my partner - an iPhone.
I can copy her apps with no problem and synch them to the iPod.
If she tries to copy apps from my library, the plus sign appears, her library highlights in iTunes, but upon mouse release a message blinks in itunes (where normally the copy progress bar is) and nothing happens - the apps do not copy.
We tested it with both of our logins (thinking there's a one-way connection) and tried all combinations we could think of - absolutely no luck.
I assume it is possible to copy apps, as they copy to my iPod OK. Is it a limitation of the iPhone?
cheers

De-authorizing computer ...
Hey everyone!
My dad's computer crashed this week (2003 laptop) so he got to go buy a fancy new MacBook Pro!
However, when he went to go authorize his account for iTunes, iTunes told him that all 5 computers have been authorized. Everyone in my family has a computer that is authorized for his iTunes account (back when the store was brand new and my siblings and I were too young to have a credit card in our name) and now he has no way of playing his music.
He emailed me asking if I could de-authorize my computer to play his music which I'm fine with doing, but it's taking forever going through the 500 songs I've downloaded in the past 6 years and figuring out which were bought under what account.
Is there an easy way in iTunes to search for music in your library based on what account you purchased it under?

My dad's computer crashed this week (2003 laptop) so he got to go buy a fancy new MacBook Pro!
However, when he went to go authorize his account for iTunes, iTunes told him that all 5 computers have been authorized. Everyone in my family has a computer that is authorized for his iTunes account (back when the store was brand new and my siblings and I were too young to have a credit card in our name) and now he has no way of playing his music.
He emailed me asking if I could de-authorize my computer to play his music which I'm fine with doing, but it's taking forever going through the 500 songs I've downloaded in the past 6 years and figuring out which were bought under what account.
Is there an easy way in iTunes to search for music in your library based on what account you purchased it under?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Podcasts not showing in Nike ...
I place podcasts in a playlist to use during my Nike recorded runs. However, the playlist does not appear in sync options and when I copy podcasts to another playlist, that one also disappears from the music options for syncing. I've tried every option that I can think of to get the podcasts into a playlist and have them synced with my iPod nano so that I can listen to them with Nike . Any suggestions?

How can I replace low bitrate mp3s and ...
Hello,
Apologies up front if this is covered in another thread. If so, please post a link.
I want to replace MP3s in my iTunes library with newly encoded 320 KBPS MP3s. I also want to keep each track's play counts and playlist links in tact but with the new higher bit rate MP3s. Is there a simple way to do this? Maybe a 3rd party app or script?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Do iTunes "edits" save to the actual ...
I've put a metric ton of audio files into iTunes, edited their attributes (such as song title, artist, album name, track number, etc), added album artwork and everything else that goes with it. My question is this: are all my edits being saved to the actual MP3 file? For instance, if I back up my music, my Mac dies, and I reload all MP3s and import them back into iTunes... are all my edits going to be retained in the MP3 files? I'd hate to think all my hard work has been for not.

When syncing smart playlists that have the 'Live Updating' option enabled, the playlist that ends up on the iPhone with OS 3.1 or Touch with 3.1.1 does not match what shows up in iTunes. The temporary workaround is to disable the Live Updating option. That has terrible side effects though. But does anyone know if Apple is considering this a bug, or some kind of 'new feature'?

Consolidate not working, Library stuck, ...
I want to transfer my music from iMac G5 to new MBP and keep Rating, Play Counts, etc. intact.
On iMac G5 it's manually organised, but for future (and moving) I want to upgrade to automatic organisation by iTunes.
Since the HD in iMac G5 is too small for the consolidate operation, I duplicated the whole Disk to a 1TB external and I'm now operating from this Volume.
First (I've seen this problem here): Consolidating was not possible, Error Message: "not enough room" (wrong).
I figured out that this was due to some tracks residing on another external Disk.
Though they were perfectly accessible, the Consolidate function failed. So this is a Bug.
Now that I worked around this (unplugging the other volume and Super Remove Dead Tracks Script was helpful),
the consolidate starts working but then fails after some 10 minutes with the error message:
"Copying files failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I'm quite sure the disk is fine and it's something else.
Just that I have no idea what to do now and it's starting to annoy me more and more that I have to spend so much time for this move.
Maybe you have another idea or know what could be the problem with this error messag.
I would greatly appreciate help on this.
Thanks,

Unable to update podcasts in iTunes 9 ...
I updated to iTunes 9 today. I have discovered that if there are no episodes in a podcast, then I can't update the podcast. I have to leave at least one episode in there and then I can right click and select update podcast. If I delete all episodes and right-click, the only two selections are now "Show description" and "delete".
Prior to this, once I deleted all episodes, I could still right click and select update podcast. Is this a real bug and if so, should I downgrade to the last version of iTunes before this update?
My thanks goes to anyone who can assist with this enquiry.

TV show episode Icons in iTunes media ...
Hi all
In iTunes, I have a list of episodes that fall under the purchased TV show. On my local hard drive, I open the iTunes media folder and all the episodes are displayed in the window. Each episode is shown as a white icon with the blue musical note and mpeg 4 written below. After 2-3 seconds, each icon changes it's picture to a middle grey color with dark bands at the top and bottom. The written mpeg 4 is no longer visible. I used a third party software to copy the episodes from my iPod to my external drive. The same occurs with these icons on this drive. However, the white/blue musical note icon with written mpeg 4 is retained for each episode when viewed in Adobe Bridge CS4.
Is this grey colored icon normal for all episodes that have been purchased via the iTunes store. Why does it start off as a white background/blue musical note and then changes to another picture. Can anyone check this when opening their iTunes media file on their local and or external drive (as a backup). I want to find out whether the third party software is responsible for changing the picture icon. If so, how can I retain the white/blue musical note with mpeg 4 written on it in the iTunes media folder?
Thanks
Robin

So, my iTunes library says it contains 64GB of music, but the iTunes folder on the hard drive says it contains 72GB of music. Whenever I delete something from the library, I always choose to move it to the trash and NOT keep the files in the folder. Is there an easy way to see what constitutes that 8GB difference?

iTunes permissions problem- need ...
So yesterday I cleaned out a bunch of old crap on my computer (MBP, 10.5.4) and now when I try to play certain tracks on my iTunes, I get the "This computer is not authorized to play so-and-so" window plus "would you like to authorize it?" When I enter my password, a new window comes up that says, ominously, "There was an error storing your authorization information on this computer." and then adds, "The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed."
When I was "spring cleaning", I did delete a couple movies, a music video (from a physical CD), and a bunch of TV episodes. Could that have anything to do with this?
Thanks for the help.

iTunes and Front Row - slow/choppy HD ...
I use an older (3YO) MacBook Pro (2.1GHz, 2GB RAM, 500GB 7200RPM HDD) with Snow Leopard (up to date) as a HTPC and get very choppy playback of HD content purchased on iTunes. SD content plays just fine, but after the chopiness begins, it begins to affect all content. I have to reboot to clear it up. This issue is also apparent in iTunes and Quicktime.
Anybody know what's going on?
I don't have a frame of reference if this worked in Leopard or not, as I just started using the HTPC 2 weeks ago, well after Snow Leopard was out.
The MacBook Pro is connected to my TV at 1080p resolution via a DVI-D to HDMI converter and sound is output using optical audio mini to toslink adapter.

VoiceOver for iTunes not only Shuffle ...
I'm a recent owner of an iPod Shuffle and I am thrilled with the VoiceOver capabilities. It is so intuitive that it takes my usage of an mp3 player to a newer level.
Nevertheless, I from time to time listen to music and other content in may computer while I work. And I found myself trying to get the name of the song or skipping to a different Playlist using the built-in buttons in my earphones. Which of course do not work, but I wonder why? if it works on a micro device like the shuffle, why not in the computer. Isn't it logic? I mean, it does help to have the playlists names read aloud while you keep your eyes on your task and just press again the button when you hear the playlist name you want, or for people that is listening to a record which doesn't sound familiar to check for the name of the artist?
Any ideas on when Apple will include VoiceOver Kit as an iTunes feature?

Hello
I'm sure this has been posted before, but I've yet to see a resolution. I have a Time Capsule and since upgrading to iTunes 8.2 (I think) the time it takes to load and playback some songs can take minutes.
I've read a few things about this (like unknown encoding formats as it plays nice with iTunes encoded files) but nothing seems to be definitive and so far there has been no fix.
Does anyone else have a Time Capsule with their library on it and suffer the same performance issues? I'd say 35% of my library has this problem - even songs I have recently purchased.
Anyone know of any fixes?
Cheers

This has been happening through several versions of itunes. In iTunes DJ when I change the source dropdown, the songs dont change. When I click refresh the songs dont change. If I change the settings, the songs dont change.
When I change source to a playlist with only radio stations, it will tell me that there are no songs playable by iTunes DJ, Are you sure you want to choose this playlist? Yes, the songs dont change.
Apple support told me to trash iTunes, restart, empty trash, install new version. Didnt solve the problem.

How do you change the default ...
I've been adding my DVD library to iTunes using HandBrake and I want to change the preview pic that iTunes adds to the file by default. I"ve tried opening the info pane and changing the album artwork, but it's already blank. Ideally, I'd like to scan thru the movie to the title frame and and replace the default image with this one but haven't figured out how to do this. Can someone please help? Thanks!

How to buy ringtones in iTunes ...
Am I missing something? I thought I saw that you could buy ringtones now in iTunes 9. How the heck do you find that feature? Looks to me like they took it out. I can't even see which songs now have the ability to be a ringtone. ???

Play split tracks in mono? ...
Hi all,
I've ripped all of my CDs in Apple Lossless format. There are a couple CDs that are split track with music on one track and vocals on the other. These CDs would be more enjoyable if I could listen to them in mono instead of stereo. Yes, I convert them to mono AAC or MP3 files but would to keep them in AL format. Is there a way to tell iTunes to play songs in mono even though it was ripped in stereo?
Thanks!
Steven

How do I stop Determining Gapless ...
Yet again, another iTunes upgrade has caused the horrible gapless playback scan to occur on my iTunes library. As a result, iTunes is totally unresponsive until this action completes. In my case, it's really slow as I'm accessing my files wirelessly from a network drive. I have to keep canceling the rescan to use iTunes. For the most part it keeps track of where it left off, however some files keep getting rescanned.
Here's what I've observed so far (not that it solves anything)
it appears that rescans are triggered whenever an upgrade rebuilds the library. After going through this once for iTunes 7 upgrade, I remember it occurring again for 8 (and probably a point release in between) and version 9.
The gapless playback mp3 tag doesn't seem to stop the rescan from occurring. I tested this for files that kept getting rescanned. I first set them to No and they still got scanned. Next I set them to Yes and still no luck...
The number of files being scanned are less than the total number of files currently in my library, which leads me to believe the rescan trigger has to do with either when the file was added (i.e. before iTunes 7 release) or based on what version of iTunes the file was created.
Based on the above, I think this is a bug as it should only go through this once and if needed when new files are added to iTunes. Better yet, there should be an option to shut this off completely!
Any info on what causes this to occur or how to make it stop would be greatly appreciated!!!

iTunes 8 won't play Amazon.com downloads ...
A week ago, under iTunes 7, when I loaded my 2nd Gen. Shuffle with songs downloaded from Amazon.com, they played just fine.
This week, loading another playlist with more songs from Amazon.com using iTunes 8, none of the Amazon.com songs will play.
Anyone know why? Anything you can do to fix this?
Many thanks,
Bob

Song Just Quits... ...
To anyone:
Can someone please tell me why only one specific song would quit 50 seconds in to the song and then jump to the next one in line? I checked the "get info/Options" tab and there is no check mark next to the start/stop time. In fact, even when I check the box next to the start at 0:00:00 and finish @ 5:12:30, it still quits at 50 seconds? I have even tried replacing the song with a different uploaded song at it still continues to do it with both of them!!
Could really use some help here!!
Thanks!

Short pause between choosing a song and ...
Hi there,
I recently swapped out my old hard drives in favour of four 10,000 rpm VelociRaptor drives in RAID0, to help with HD video editing and rendering.
Before I did so, I made a complete system backup using Carbon Copy Cloner, and also a Time Machine backup.
Needless to say, the Carbon Copy Cloner backup was somehow corrupted, so I had to resort to do a full system restore using Time Machine.
The system's back up, and has been fine so far except for a few preference file crashes related to Final Cut Pro.
However, one little annoyance I have is, there is about a full second or two of lag between me double-clicking a song to play in iTunes, and it actually playing it.
I didn't have this problem before, and you would have thought that with 4 x 10,000 rpm, latency would be a thing of the past.
When creating the RAID0, I had left the block size at default (32K). Not sure if that would make a difference, but I thought I'd keep it the same value as I had when I backed up my system.
Any thoughts would be appreciated,
Cheers,

Home Sharing feature not working in ...

I have two Macs on a home network, both updated to iTunes 9.0, both authorized for "home sharing." When I launched iTunes 9 for the first time the Sharing tab was visible; I clicked it to go through authorization process, then it disappeared (once sharing was turned on). That behavior happens on both machines.

Problems with iTunes after migrating to ...
After migrating all my data from a previous MacBook Pro to the newest one, I am having a recurring problem with iTunes. Each time I open iTunes after having quit, say after having shut down the computer, I have to once again agree to the iTunes user agreement. That is a bit annoying. Furthermore, that means I have to re-establish the connection with my iTunes library when using remote from my iPhone every single time, I have started iTunes again.
Any advice on what to do, so I can accept the user agreement once and connect remote on my iPhone once to my iTunes library?
Best regards,
Umahro

Tips on Various Artists/Soundtracks ...
I generally like to use cover flow and sort by Artist so each album is within the artists range instead of sporadic and sorted by Album.
I have a few soundtracks and wanted to tag them properly so i did with the help of iTunes store and comparing them.
for example, across the universe, i selected part of compilation and changed all the artist's names to the ones that appear on the track, but of course in cover flow mode and with sort by artists it will place them in sporadically through out.
Are there any good ways to sort in cover flow mode?
the only other way i could think of is to name the Artist field the soundtrack name and the album artist to the one that appears on the track...

How can I make the Genius Mixes smarter? ...
I like the Genius Mixes feature, except for one little annoying thing. It gives me a "Classical Mix" that includes some music that I don't consider "classical". The album was categorized as "New Age Classical" in the genre field. I changed it to "New Age". I quit iTunes and then reopened it and went to the Genius Mixes and the album is still there.
I assume that the info is stored on my computer somewhere and I need to delete or edit some file. Or is it getting the info from a server at Apple HQ?

Where is public radio in iTunes 9? ...
I went to listen to my morning NPR station, but once I clicked on the "public radio" folder in the new iTunes, it vanished. What's up? Did Apple decide to only list commercial stations?

Hi:
I'm having troubles setting up home sharing. I've followed the directions via 'help' menu and watched SCO's for tips on the issue but I can't seem to get it to work.
If I'm sharing iTunes library from computer A to computer B, does computer B need to log into iTunes store under computer A's account? I can stream computer A's library on B, but not copy.
Also, applications don't show up: are these not transferable?

I can no longer synch iCal with my iPhone. I get the message: The application AppleMobileSync quit unexpectedly.
I have already reset my iPhone. Addresses have synced as have applications but it crashes on Calendar sync. The machine also slows to a crawl while it is trying to do the calendar sync. When unselecting the "Synch iCal Calendars" box, I can synch everything else, so the problem is linked to calendars only.
Would appreciate it if someone can help me figure out where the problem is. Detail on configuration and report below.

salvaging itunes music files with ...
For reasons unknown most of my iTunes music files were transferred to the trash and deleted.
I bought filesalvage and was able to salvage all the files (more than 2,500) but without their original names.
Now, when I open iTunes I have the names of my 2,500 or so songs but when I try and play most of them I get the message that iTunes is unable to locate the original file.
Is there any way I can get my old iTunes library back from here?
Thanks

How to stop iTunes from launching when ...
Hi,
I love the media keys on my MacBook and Apple wireless keyboard for playing, pausing, changing tracks etc with iTunes, but there are other than can utilize the media keys, like Spotify for instance. However, if I have iTunes closed, when I hit the Play key, iTunes will automatically launch, and will intercept any subsequent presses of just the play/pause button. Is there a way to stop this annoying behavior? I haven't found anything in the Keyboard shortcut system pref.
thanks.

sharing libraries on the same Mac ...
I have 2 non-administrator accounts and an administrator account on one Mac. (G5 running Tiger). I have tried various ways of sharing songs between all of these accounts. What I am trying to do is have the 3 accounts show the same songs when they open iTunes. I want to be able to add songs to any of the individual accounts, and have it show up in all 3. I do not want to make 3 copies of each song. I can't seem to get this to work. I had this working before I upgraded to itunes 9. Now no matter what I do, can't get it to work. Can someone let me know how I can set this up?

Cant load playlist on new iTunes ...
I just got my 4th iPod (3rd generation) shuffle (due to sweat problem) and have found that i cant load my main playlist because it is too big. Now i know having a playlist that exceeds the size of the shuffle memory means it wont load all the songs, but on my prior shuffles, a selection of those songs on that playlist would be loaded. And when i synced, all exiting songs would be removed and a new selection from the big playlist library would be installed. But now, when i attempt to load songs from my playlist, a pop-up states that the playlist is too big and asks would i like to load a 'selection of songs' - to which i reply 'yes'. Then, however, it deselects my playlist and loads a selection of songs from my entire library ! Why ? I don't want songs from my wifes Mamma Mia CD when i am pounding the pavement.

iTunes radio stops streaming on its own ...
It seems to happen randomly. Usually an iTunes radio station will stream for hours, but sometimes it will simply stop for no apparent reason. When it stops it usually stops repeatedly after playing for only a few minutes. It's not the "rebuffering stream" message; it simply stops as though I pressed the stop button. Pressing play restarts the stream as though nothing had happened.
So is this an ISP issue, or the radio streaming source?

Transferring Itunes Library to new iMac ...
A few years ago when I was transferring my itunes library to my current old computer, I transfered the entire itunes music folder over to the new one via wifi. This seemed to work fine but after replacing my copied itunes folder with the empty one, a lot of the songs were exclamation points and corrupt etc.
I ended up having to just copy all the songs into itunes (individually loading each one by dragging the entire folder over itunes). This rendered all my playlists, play count, starred songs useless.
I just bought a new iMac and want to try this again.
This time I would like to do it 100% securely or in other words not lose anything from my itunes set up. I want it to transfer over completely properly with all play counts, starred songs etc.
Keep in mind my library is just under 200gb.
So what is the best way to transfer these?
Entire iTunes folder to desktop on other computer via ethernet? Then what?
Thanks very much!

multiple iTunes Media Folder Locations ...
Hi,
I have all my music on an external harddisk connected to my laptop. When I'm working on my desk, I have access to all my music on the firewire drive.
And I also have all my music on a NAS drive connected to my home LAN.
When I move the laptop to the living room I'd like to open iTunes and make it play my music from the NAS device.
Therefore, I created two different libraries which I can open using the ALT key, but it appears that they always use the same Media Folder Location, whether it's the Firewire drive or whether it's the NAS.
So my question is, how can I make iTunes switch between two Media Folder Locations, depending on which source drive I'd like to use? It really doesn't matter if I can do this with one library or if I have to use two libraries for this.
Another question: is it possible to make iTunes re-scan the library? I've moved some files around and changed a few folder names. How can I force iTunes to re-scan?
Thanks,
Kris

TimeMachine screwing my library up? ...
Hey,
I don't know how long it's been doing this, but there are duplications of every single music file in my library. The only difference is, a "1" is added after every file. Example: original file "01 Someone Like You.m4a" - duplicate file "01 Someone Like You 1.m4a".
I suspect TimeMachine has something to do with it (all my laptop files are backed up to a ext. HD).
I obviously don't want these duplicate files, but it's the biggest headache imaginable trying to sort them out, because if I delete the file that iTunes is linked to, it'll still play while the file is in Trash, but as soon as I empty trash, the file is gone and I then have to go back to the extHD and transfer it again.
It's just something I shouldn't have to do, but I don't know how to reverse it, or if I even CAN reverse it. Does this sound like anything that's happened to anybody else?
Pllllleeeeaaaasssssse help, I'm dyin' over here.

iTunes constantly crashes playing CDs ...
I've had serious iTunes problems (v. 9.0.1) ever since upgrading to OS 10.5.6 on my ppc 20" G5 iMac. In the meantime my internal superdrive died and I bought a La Cie ext. superdrive instead. It went back to La Cie support twice because I thought the problems were the drive. I just purchased a replacement Toshiba internal drive and replaced it myself. It works fine, but now iTunes still crashes the same way! It takes two crashes, relaunches, and resetting in order to play a single CD without problems. After a CD finishes, it crashes again. It plays one track at a time off the audio disc image without iTunes. I trashed the iTunes prefs and ran permissions many times. (DVDs play fine. Haven't tried to burn any discs yet.) Also cleaned up the HD directory with DiskWarrior. AppleCare has been no help. What should I try next?

"the original file could not be found" ...
I recently moved my iTunes library from my iMac to an OWC Neptune 500 gig external HDD that I had been using for Time Machine back-ups. I followed (to the extent I could) instructions in a tutorial. The music is all there, and all of the names, artwork, etc remain on iTunes where they belong. I believe all of the Advanced Preference settings are correct, and the path to the music is correct, but I have to "locate" each song one at a time (I have around 10,000!!). Once they are located, they play.
Can anyone help me "relocate" all of the rest of my library in one shot?

iTunes duplicates: Display filenames? ...
I recently upgraded my internal hard drive, and thus, was able to integrate my iTunes library, much of which was stored on an external hard drive. This resulted in literally thousands of duplicates, principally of the files which I'd already had "on the road" copies on my Macbook.
This is a catastrophe, of course, because now the syncing on my iPhone is messed up- my top artists are now in duplicate, and it's even worse on the iPhone since you can't change the sort order; there is no longer any way for me to simply listen to an album without hitting "skip track" every other track.
I want to delete the duplicates from my iTunes library and my hard drive, but I only want to delete the real duplicates, not the ones that have all my metadata. For the most part these are the ones that have a "1" or "2" at the end of the filename, since a track gets a number tacked on when it's imported as a duplicate. (Why it doesn't question the duplicate import like iPhoto does, is beyond me.)
Is there any way for me to view my iTunes library that shows the filenames? That is, a way from which I could then delete them? I know that I could simply create a file list in Terminal but that wouldn't really help me delete them. None of the scripts that I've found display the filename either, and having to hit command-i then return for each track I want to delete is a real drag- command-i, return, command-delete, m, times 4000 files, is a really really slow process and I don't have time for that. Anyone have experience solving this problem?

This is a catastrophe, of course, because now the syncing on my iPhone is messed up- my top artists are now in duplicate, and it's even worse on the iPhone since you can't change the sort order; there is no longer any way for me to simply listen to an album without hitting "skip track" every other track.

use iTunes but send music to Bose ...
Hi,
I'm trying to do the following, but I'm not sure it can work: I'd like to use the iTunes interface to search and select music (located on a NAS uPnP device) and listen to it on my Bose system.
I can use my PS3, but then my girlfriend has to turn on the TV, turn on the "noisy" PS3 and use the PS3's interface instead of iTunes.
I could buy a Squeezbox and connect it to my iTunes library, this way, there's no need for a TV or a PS3 to be powered on, but I have to use the very limited Squeezebox interface.
So, we would like to have a laptop in the sofa, connected to the LAN over wi-fi and then search music in iTunes and make it play on the Bose Lifestyle 18 system in our living room.
I've been thinking on how to do this, but can't find a solution for this? Strange, I suspect there are more people out there who love iTunes (or another media player on their PC or Mac), but want the music on their surround system and who would love to use the laptop wireless, without an audio cable running from the notebook to the Bose surround amplifier.
Is there a solution to do this? The only thing I could come up with is connect a dedicated laptop to the surround and then use Remote Desktop to that PC from another wi-fi laptop we're using while sitting in the sofa, but that's crazy, right?
Any solutions? What am I missing?
Thanks,
Kris

Music Library disappeared with iTunes 9 ...
After installation of iTunes 9, my music library seems not to exist. Someone elsewhere suggested going to previous iTunes Library. I did that. There are seemingly several such libraries, dating back to 2003. Double-clicking on any of them does nothing except to bring the iTunes menu across the top of the screen. Controls-to-Play does nothing except to bring up one title which cannot be played because "The original file cannot be found." Choosing the option "Locate" opens up a video TS file. I have faith enough to believe that my music library is somewhere on my disc. How does one find the original library? Is this a peculiarity of iTunes 9? Others seem to have a similar problem; is there no solution?
Thanks.

Green button and time indication in ...
I don't really have a question, merely two things I find terribly annoying that I would like to share. In iTunes 9 for MacOS, the green button does not function as it did before anymore! Clicking the green -button now enlarges/restores screen size, but does no longer shift between miniplayer and normal view. Also the control-command-z combination now functions this way and shifting to miniplayer is now shift-command-m (as in iTunes for Windows; Mac turned into Windows!).
Another really annoying thing (since iTunes 8 already) is that the small screen that shows your music-file playing no longer shows the played and remaining time of a song, but played and total time of the song. This isn't the most logical choice for this screen, is it? I now need to calculate remaining song time by substracting played from total time.
Actually this remark may also be a question: may any of you cool Apple kids know a way of changing all this, then please mention it!
Thanks! Kind regards,
Duco from the Netherlands

Podcasts are being auto-rated ...
iTunes 9.0.1 is auto-rating podcasts as if they were albums and then giving each individual episode that rating. In my podcast library there is a outline-star rating in the podcast feed, and then the individual episodes in that feed have outline-star ratings unless I have individually given them a solid-star rating manually. So far it has not happened to Music, TV Shows, Audiobooks, or Movies. I can't figure out how to remove this rating and it is really screwing up my system for tracking podcasts. Thanks in Advance.

Having my iTunes Library on my MPB ...
Hi
I searched but the answers I found didn't quite match my question.
My main iTunes is my iMac, however I travel quite a bit an have my MBP with me. 3 of my computers are authorized. I'd like to have an exact copy of my iTunes on my MBP with a few Podcasts.
Is this just a simple copy/paste situation or is there more to it? If it's just a copy/paste, where do I copy my library to on my MBP?
Thanks
Allen

iTunes 9 drops connections to remote ...
Using Snow Leopard 10.6.1 (Mac Mini) and the following hardware:
-An Airport Extreme firmware 7.4.2 (connected to computer using ethernet)
-Two airport expresses (firmware 7.4.2) connected to remote speakers.
-WPA2 encrypted network
-iTunes 9.0 (70)
After updating to Snow Leopard 10.6.1, iTunes 9 regularly drops the Airtunes connection to the two sets of remote speakers. The connection drop only seems to happen after the main computer has gone to sleep and woken back up. This problem never happened using 10.4.11 and exactly the same hardware setup. This system worked flawlessly for over a year on Tiger and now this problem started right away after upgrading to snow leopard. There is no error number reported, iTunes 9 just churns when asked to play music and eventually pops up an dialog box that says "Remote speakers could not be found. Would you like to use the computer speakers?"
Quitting and then relaunching iTunes 9 fixes the problem and I can then connect and stream to the remote speakers (that is until the main computer goes to sleep again)
Does anyone know how to resolve this?

iTunes 9 - Video Playback Problem in ...
Hi,
I just purchased an iPod Touch 3rd generation and was forced to install iTunes 9 in order to use it.
Now I am not able to play video in a separate window anymore. I tried different options in the "Playback" menu all except the "in a separate window" option work. It worked just fine in iTunes 8.
The playback seems to start, at least I can hear the sound, but the video window won't open.
Can anyone help me, please?

iPod does not show up in iTunes 9? ...
I've just finished completely reinstalling my OS X Snow Leopard due to a previous problem, and everything works fine. Except for iTunes. For some reason my iPod Touch 1st gen won't show up in iTunes when I plug it in. This didn't happen before on my old System, which also had iTunes 9. I browsed the forum and saw that other people seem to have this problem too. So is this a bug to be fixed?
I've tried reinstalling iTunes twice; one time it worked, my iPod showed up, but then it didn't show up after that. I've tried resetting my iPod touch but to no avail. My iPod is recognized on my friend's computer, so I don't think my iPod is to blame.
Any ideas anyone?
