Imported tracks not available in playlists until download from cloud

Sometimes, playlists made of tracks imported from my CDs are not available to sync with iPhones or iPads. When I look at the tracks in My Music, they all have the cloud symbol by them. I can't get a playlist that includes them to sync to phone until I download from the cloud. Any idea why I have to do that? The tracks started out as imports on my PC in the first place. (If anyone can point me to good complete description oh how iTunes on PC works with the cloud, that would be very helpful.)

Hi,
To sync your music you iphone, the music needs to be physically in you iTunes library on your computer. So you will need to download then. Where do you keep the originals of the tracks as they would have had to be on your computer when you subscribed to match?
Your alternative is to turn on match so that all your music will be available from the cloud. You have the option to download tracks for use when you have no wifi connection.

Safari 4.0.1 not available as a dmg download from Support Downloads page

Generally all downloads available via Software Update are themselves available via the Support Download page http://support.apple.com/downloads/
I note that as of this morning (Perth Western Australia time) Safari 4.0.1 is still not yet listed. Is that common for Apple to miss adding updates to that page?
Chris

Yep, I know that Software Update does that. My point is that every update I have ever applied is normally always available as an installer on the Support Download page. I'm a bit gun shy of Software Update having experienced some problems in the past and choose to apply all my updates after downloading them from the Support Download page. Call me a bit paranoid if you like but once burned forever careful. It's just odd that Safari 4.0.1 is conspicuous by its absence on that page.

Why sports tracker not available for N97

Why sports tracker not available for N97? One of the most expensive nokia phones without sports tracker. Its weird.. nokia whats happening, dont disappoint N97 customers

A quick google or a look in Betalabs will tell you that Nokia diverged Sports tracker last year so it is no longer "Nokia" http://runningdigital.com/2009/10/21/nokia-sports-tracker-update-sports-tracking-technologies/
Nothing on their site yet http://www.sportstrackingtechnologies.com/, but presumably something will pop up on Ovi Store in the future.

TS2972 Since a recent Itunes upgrade I've lost the settings facility in home sharing to import tracks not in my library. When I check for updates I'm running the latest version. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Sadly, the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

I can download (from cloud) Adobe Lightroom 4 but it will not open - error 0x000007b

I can download, from Cloud, other Adobe products BUT when I download Lightroom 4 it will not open and gives an error message "This application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b).
Previously I had purchased, singularily, Lightroom 3 and it worked well for almost a year but suddently when I would try to open I received the same error message as above. I have tried MULTIPLE courses to try to fix this but cannot.

Mylenium,
Thank you for your reply. Other adobe apps are not a problem, i.e., Adobephotoshop, Adobe Acrobat Xi, etc. The version 3 that was initially purchased worked fine for several months and then reverted to the error message agove. When I purchased Cloud and downloaded LR4 the download was fine but again would not open. I have spent hours on the phone with tech help from India and it was a massive waste of time.... I ran a repair on Windows, downloaded 32bit version of LR3 and it seems to work some...could not find 32bit of LR4. I have installed and removed the program more than 10 times. I do not know what "event viewer" is nor where I would find it. Disappointed in the system and appalled with tech support.

I am trying to burn a cd from my playlist but after inserting my disc I do not get (burn playlist to disc) from drop down menu

I am trying to burn a cd from my playlist but after inserting my disc I do not get( burn playlist to disc) from drop down menu?

Hollie,
Do things in the following order:
Make the playlist you are going to burn, and open it.
Have the blank CD-R handy.
Use the command File > Burn Playlist to Disc.
When it asks you to insert a blank disc, do so.

ITunes not syncing selected playlists, choosing songs from all playlists

I have some smaller iPods that I use on random occasions. When I sync them, I choose the following options:
Sync Music:
Selected Playlists, artists, genres
Music Videos - Not Checked
Automatically fill free space with songs - Checked
I have two playlists from which I wish a selection to be made, which exceeds the size of the iPod (they were designed for larger devices synced with this machine). When I attempt to Sync, I get a message saying that the iPod is too small, and would I like iTunes to automatically choose songs to sync. If I click no, the sync is canceled. If I click yes to have a subset of my two playlists automatically choosen, the ipod will sync, but then iTunes clears all of my selected playlists and starts syncing songs from all playlists.
This seems like a bug in iTunes to me, as it is not performing the requested options. Has anyone else experienced this, or know how to get it fixed? Or to get a bug report sent in to Apple? I have been going all over the place on their support page, and since this isn't an issue with the iPod, but with iTunes, I haven't been able to find a support avenue.

Suggestions here -> iTunes application feedback
iTunes not syncing selected playlists, choosing songs from all playlists
You have it selected to *sync selected playlists* and those playlists are not syncing to the iPod?
however this seems to be very counter-intuitive behavior for iTunes
It can be kind of confusing.
I suggest it's not a bug in that it is acting as it's supposed to.
The option (Fill free space) could be made clearer. Perhaps if they added "with songs at random from the entire library" or somehow added an option to select what the free space will be filled with.)
1) The fact that iTunes it is not obeying the selected options on the screen
Not supposed to do that.
If the playlists all fit and there is free space, what would iTunes use to fill the free space if it only used selected items?
2) iTunes is allowing users construct an unhonorable set of choices out of four options. If "Selected playlists, artists and genres" is not compatible with "Automatically fill free space," then that option should be grayed out.
It is compatible.
If there is free space after your selections are added, what should iTunes use to fill the free space? It shouldn't fill the free space with stuff already on the iPod.

If you are currently running a version of iOS earlier thatn 5, you will need to connect the iPad to a computer running iTunes in order to upgrade. There is no free standing download, and even if there was, you couldn't install the upgrade without iTunes.

I am trying to transfer my itunes library from my old Mac to my new Mac; however, all that transfers is the music I downloaded from itunes. It does not transfer the music I downloaded from my cd's.

How do I transfer my itunes library from my old Mac to my new Mac? When I try all that transfers is what I downloaded from Itunes. It does not transfer the music I downloaded from my cd's/.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
2011 Transferring your iTunes library - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive/ - An article with good background information, particularly if you are not sure your media files are all grouped for quick solution above. Unfortunately it uses the single term "transferring library" for two very different moves; relocating just your media (not recommended unless you really need this configuration) and relocating media+database (really your whole "library"). Make sure you understand the difference before electing to move only media.
If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

Importing; tracks are in different playlists

I have imported a CD where the track names were not available from the store. I have typed in all the information, - titles in Greek - but I find the tracks in separate/different playlists. Each playlist contains the tracks of each separate Greek alphabet letter, and then not in track number order either, but alphabetical. I have checked the information is the same (eg disk 2 of two) etc, and find no differences. It appears the first letter of the track name creates the new playlist. I would like them all in one playlist, in the order they were on the CD I imported from.

When I import several CDs and then merge those imported tracks into one iTunes album it often makes a mess. I merge the imported CDs by ctrl-clicking on the albums, going to get infos and editing the common data (composer, artwork, album title etc.). ITunes does make a single album out of the cds but sometimes it merges the tracks in a silly order. This happens especially if the CDs are not known to Gracenote. In that case iTunes will merge the CDs in the order Track 01, Track 01, Track 01, ... instead of all tracks from CD1, then all tracks from CD2 etc.. Since there is no Undo if the merge I have to re-import all CDs and start again. Very annoying.
I can set the sort field to sort by "import date/time" which brings the tracks in the order I want (i.e. first all tracks from the first imported CD, then the next one ...) but when I sync my iTunes with the iPhone all the tracks are again in the order Track 01, Track 01, etc. (i.e. the CDs are interleaved).
I do not want to build a separate Playlist but want a single iTunes album with all the CDs that belong to a particular set in correct order.
How can this be done, please ?

Is it possible to re-import tracks to their corresponding playlists?

as opposed to just "the Library"?
There has got to be a reason for exporting and importing playlist .xml files.
Why is everyone telling me that iTunes is incapable of re-directing tracks to their corresponding playlists? It makes no sense to have a playlist backup if it cannot really be used!

1) Are what I mentioned before of any use? (smart playlists, special tags, or scripts)
Yes - nearly all my playlists are smart playlists based on the Grouping field, e.g.:
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I use this method to manage the content of our family's four iPods, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their iPod. Because the grouping field is stored in file tags (for audio files anyway) playlist membership is automatically preserved when I delete from iTunes, reorganise & re-import.

Imported emails not available...

I just purchsed a new MacBook Pro. I imported all my emails from my G4 tower (from Mail.app 2.1) into Mail on the laptop. Some (but not all) of the messages show up. When I click on some messages this is what I see:
"The message from SENDER concerning 'SUBJECT LINE' has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
The messages all show up in Mail on my old computer. This is happening with messages from a variety of senders (i.e. they're not all sending from the same place).
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Please, clarify what exactly did you do to set up Mail on the new computer and to import your mail from the old one.

Not available for upgrade until September, can I still get iPhone 4 in Feb?

I am not available for my new every two upgrade until September, is it possible for me still to purchase the iPhone 4 in early Feb (I believe it's the 3rd) ? Or is this only for customers that are currently up for an upgrade? Also, how much would it be? Please let me know, thank you!!

Unless Verizon surprises us with some special promotions this year, the only way to get the iPhone 4 before you're eligible for an upgrade is to pay full retail. That would be $599 for the 16GB model and $699 for 32GB. If you wait until September, it'll be $199 or $299 with a two-year contract.
