Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
When editing the song information, make sure you are viewing the song's Info window:
To view and edit a song or video's info in iTunes:
Click once on the track title to select it

  • How do I change the name of my podcast in iTunes?

    My podcast is listed by my name (John Bell) in iTunes instead of its title (Bell's in the Batfry) which confuses a lot of folks looking for it.
    Is there a way somebody can explain to me... in "idiot english"... how I can get iTunes to change the name?
      Windows XP  

    I've looked at your code and the title of the code in your .xml file (and when its viewed in a web browser) has the title line down as your name not your podcast name.
    An error in the entry I'm afraid, not iTunes. As Mitchell says you can open the .xml file and edit the text - however, every time you create a new episode you may find the programme you're using will overwrite the code.
    As your name appears twice in your podcast (as the author and as the podcast name), only thing i could suggest is looking at the details youve entered to see if you had to put your name in twice in your programme - if you had to put it in twice try changing one of the fields, publish it and then open the xml file in a browser window - if the top line shows the amended name you know thats the one!
    Hope that all makes sense - it does in my head!!!! :o)

  • How can I get the name of my songs in iTunes

    I imported the songs in my iTune without internet connect before, now I can connect to internet, how can I get my song's name?
    Thanks.

    If you imported them from CD, using iTunes, select all tracks of the album and choose 'Get CD Track Names' from the 'Advanced' menu.
    This does not work if you imported them from a playlist or imported them from CD with another application and then added them to the iTunes library.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I change the names of catagories that have been added to my music library?  Is it possible to change names or artists or gendre and how to do it?

    How do I change the names of artists or gendre in the itunes list after importing an album?  Is it posssible to change that information?

    Yes. Select one or more tracks (use ctrl or shift clicks to add/remove or extend a selection) then right-click or press CTRL-I to Get Info. Use the different tabs of the dialog to make changes.
    For general advice on getting things neat & tidy see my article on Grouping tracks into albums.

  • How can I change the name of item in TableViewController iOS

    How can I change the name of item in TableViewController? I want to be able to change the title of an item if I added one. Code:

    These outlets to the buttons use a `strong` reference instead of `weak` because we want
    to keep the buttons around even if they're not inside a view.

    Hey JB001,
    Sounds like you have more going on than just a simple issue with Home Sharing and more dealing with Wi-Fi syncing. Start with the article below and see if that may resolve it.

    how do i change the name associated with my icloud

    If you are trying to change the iCloud ID to another ID, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.
    If you are trying to change the name of your existing iCloud ID and not trying to change to a different ID, you can change the name of the ID as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621.  After doing so, you'll need to sign out of the exising ID, then sign back in using the changed ID.
