ITunes 9 on Leopard 10.5.8 - RIP speeds now stuck at 8x
Hi,
So I was happily importing some new cd's into my collection, all were around 30-40x on my G5 Powermac Dual 1.8
I had one cd that the last track was not reading and so I turned on error correction, then tried to rip that track again.
The track just would not rip, so i moved on.. went back and turned off error correction.
Now every-time I import my speeds are stuck at 8x and will not go back to normal!
I have shutdown itunes, restarted it.. no change
I have rebooted the machine.. no change
The error correction is not checked but now the drive is still ripping with error correction on, regardless of what the check box shows!
Anyone have this happen yet with iTunes 9?
Is there a way I can delete the preference caches for itunes to get error correction to really be off?
I did not have this issue with old ver of itunes prior to 9 release.
I am now hating life as I have about 30 cd's to rip and its like being back in the year 2000 lol
I did use roxio to do a rip and it rips at full speed, so this is isolated to iTunes 9
Thanks in advance for any help
Jim,
Thanks for the quick response!
That is what it needed, I deleted it and the redid the settings
Now ripping again @ 40x +
So just for fun, i checked the error correction box again and did a rip at 8x as expected.
Then I unchecked the error correction box, and again the problem remained.
Looks to be a bug discovery in iTunes 9, as I did this on my MacPro as well and it did the same thing.
I had to delete the plist again to resolve it.
Thanks so much!

When my iPad prompted me to upgrade to IOS 7.1, I selected the upgrade. All went well until the iPad prompted me to plug into iTunes. I plugged it to a laptop, then the message on the laptop stated "iPod is in Recovery Mode" Nothing worked to get the iPad to complete the upgrade, not even an attempt to restore iPad to factory settings - it is stuck in the "plug to iTunes" mode.
Any suggestions to either uninstall IOS 7.1, to complete the install, or to reset it? At this point, it is a $700 papeweight.Pad: Unable to update or restore

ICal & Snow Leopard upgrade. iCal icon is now stuck on July 17th?
Hi everyone,
I have recently upgraded my Mid '07 Mac Mini from Leopard to Snow Leopard and have only come across 3 problems (None really major).
One of these is my iCal dock icon on my dock is stuck on July 17th rather than the present date unless the app is open. (I am aware that July 17 is the default icon).
I've tried the following to fix it and none have worked so far:
Relaunched Dock & Finder
Deleted iCal Preferences in User/Library
Copied the iCal icon with the date on to a variety of places
Removing the dock icon and dragging back in again
Created a new account to see if it's my account with the problem (The problem existed on the new account too).
I can seem to fix this but it was my quick reference to the day's date.
I hope someone can help me. Thank you.I think only Leopard's iCal has the current date on the dock icon. Tiger and (I guess now) Snow Leopard keep their dock icon on July 17, which is the date that iCal debuted at the MacWorld Expo in New York in 2002. The only time it shows the current date is when the application is running. There is one very simple trick to get it updated and thats to have the app open at login (keep it hidden if you don't want it popping up every time you log on). Other ways include scripting and installing other programs but that can get kinda hectic. =/

Manually migrating iPhoto and iTunes from Snow Leopard to Lion..
Hi all,
I received a shiny new iMac yesterday and in my haste to get it up and running, I began to run the migration assistant on wi-fi. Unfortunately, my 2006 macbook model is so old that my firewire cables don't actually fit the firewire port on the back of the iMac!!
11 hours later, there was still 40 hours left to go. At this point I manually quit the migration assistant. Partly because I have to work and to work I need to use a computer and partly because I realised that I don't want all the old crud from my previous system.. all I want is my iTunes (songs, apps, playlists etc) and my iPhoto to migrate.
The original admin account that the migration assistant was going to replace was still there. Everything seems to be working fine... I did a quick repair of disk permissions and all seems fine. So, I think I flirted with danger by quiting the migration assistant, but danger doesn't seem to have flirted back.
I've searched high and low on the web and I can't find any advice on migrating just your iPhoto and iTunes from Snow Leopard to Lion. I did read a post somewhere (relating to a migration to Leopard) where someone wrote that, for iPhoto, you simply had to replace your iPhoto Library in your pictures folder on the destination machine and then simply start iPhoto. iPhoto would upgrade the databases etc and all would be fine in the world. I cannot find a post online that suggests that this is also the case for Lion.
Can anyone here give me some hints on how to manually migrate the iPhoto and iTunes libraries over (and still preserve playlists in iTunes, albums/events in iPhoto etc)?
I figure that I cannot be the only person in the world who wants a "fresh start" on their machine, with the exception of iPhoto and iTunes.Resident apple gurus at work have advised me to use the migration assistant and plug an ethernet cable between machines.
I'll give this a go and then go through the process of removing and cleaning up whatever old data I can.. but if someone posts a response to this question for me, I'll happily roll back in time-machine and go again in a cleaner way. :-) -

Has anyone tested ripping a CD yet? I was wondering what kind of average and max rip speed you were seeing. I have a G4 1.42 with pioneer 107 with firmware update to unlock extra burn and read speeds and I average about 18x and I have seen about 25 once in a while. Does the Mac Pro kill this or is it limited to the speed of the DVD drive? I have a Mac pro on order and was just curious about a real world test.
I have a Mac Pro 3.0 Ghz with two superdrives. I imported a cd earlier today, and on average, I was getting 25-28x.
Hope this helps. -
I moved iTunes 10.5 media folder and hard drive is now empty?
I moved iTunes 10.5 media folder to my D Drive which is larger and after importing my library and everything, iTunes worked fine. Except my D drive is now completely empty including files, music and pictures. How can I get my files back?
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.

I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy. I plan to add a few more iphones to the family very soon. What is your recommendation to manage all of our devices (iphones, itouch, apple tv) for my family? Can I continue to function with one apple ID or is it time to take the leep into attempting to manage multi-apple ID's?
There's a few ways of managing multiple devices on a single computer (and keeping seperate content on each). The following document is worth checking through:

I just updated itunes to 11.1.3 on my laptop and now it won't open. It does not respond to trying "safe mode" either. Anyone have an idea as to what to do?
I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,
A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete. -

Hi. I'm in a situation here and would really welcome some guidance. I dragged my ext. HD iTunes backed up folder into my new mac. Now there are duplicates of every song. Both versions seem to actually BE there when I check the info. So, I moved what I thought were duplicates into the trash from iTunes, and resigned myself to the fact that I would have to do this manually for each album. I did this with about 10 albums. I emptied the trash and lost them even though they still LOOKED like they were in iTunes. I repeated the process tonight on a bunch of other albums not realizing yet that I had screwed up terribly the first time. This time I saw what had happened and pulled the files out of the trash, onto my desktop and dragged them back into iTunes, then deleted the duplicate files that had exclamation points next to them. Now I have no idea if iTunes is playing duplicate files from the trash or not, and am nervous about emptying the trash. Anyone dealt with this before? Thank you
