Problems with the 'Comments' field in iTunes

First, sorry for my english (I'm danish).
I've read a lot of threads here and everywhere else, but can't find a solution for my exact problem. I use Windows Vista and the newest version of iTunes.
Most of my mp3 songs (35.000) are put directly in album folders to the folder 'D:My Music from another computer via a USB drive and the songs already have id3 tag information on them.
I then add the albums to iTunes and most of my tag information is now updated in iTunes. Names, Artists, Genre, Year, everything is okay. By the way the songs have ID3v2.3 tag information. I see that in my Mp3tag v.2.42 application.
But the problem is with the 'Comments' field:
Those tags (originally put to the songs directly in the proberties of the song in Windows Explorer) will simply not transfer to iTunes 'Comments' field. And if I write something in the iTunes 'Comments' field this will not show up in the fields properties in windows Explorer. It looks like the 'Comments' fields in iTunes and in the proberties in the song are not connected at all!?
I then found out, I could let iTunes convert the ID3 codes, but nothing happens except from when using v. 1.0 or 1.1, because then the comments tag are transferres, but unfortunately all the tags will only show 30 characters!!!
And there's also a different story:
A few albums though are put directly on my computer by using iTunes to import the CD. These songs have ID3 v.2.2 tags, so I guess iTunes import files in that format?
And here it's a little different story. If I put comment data directly to the file proberties in Windows Explorer (after the CD's been imported to iTunes), the comments will show up in iTunes, but only as several 0 and 1 digits! On the other hand, if I put information directly in iTunes 'Comments' field it wil show up correctly in the file proberties! But it's only a few songs/albums that are handled that way.
Well, bottom's line, I want to see my comments tags (which are allready there in the song's proberties) when I browse my music in my folders in Windows Explorer and I want to see the exact same comments if I go to browse my music in iTunes. That should not be a problem ... but it is not ...
Can I please get a solution or at least an explanation, and hopefully in not too tecnical terms.

I, too, hope someone will answer this! I am hoping to catalog my entire CD collection in iTunes and I want to include the storage box number somehow, thinking that "comments" would be a good place to do so. If I cannot do that I'll try to find a program other than iTumes to do it. Does anyone have any suggestions on this topic? ...perhaps I need to open a new thread?
THANKS!
Doug

How do I search the comments field in iTunes 11

How do I search the comments field in iTunes 11 for windows

I was suggesting you untick it.
New search behaviour
Old search behaviour
Thinking that the old behaviour might prove more fruitful.
If that doesn't help can you post a screenshot that shows what you're doing and why you think you're getting the wrong results?

Problem with the quantity field

hi every one
i am facing a problem with the quantity field (vbap-kwmeng)
as per my requirement i need to display this quantity field along with some other item fields from VBAP in an alv grid.
among all the fields displayed in the alv grid only this quantity field is editable(end user can change this quantity)
once end user changes this quantity and press save button i need to capture this new quantity in my internaltable.
problem is input of length of quantity is 15 and the output length is 19
so when i am pressing save
say my quantity is 50 when i am pressing save '0.050' is coming because of the length difference
how can i capture the original changed value.
vamsi

what about define two fields in you inner table ,one as char and the other as vbap-kwmeng, you can show the char one in the ALV gird , when user input value and press SAVE ,you can move the value to vbap-kwmeng.
you can test it,mybe some one has one better idea.

What a vague and useless question.
A search of the forums would have revealed issues that others are having.
Why does it matter though? Are you having issues? If not.. why would you care?

What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7

What is the problem with the newest version of iTunes (Failed to install - error 7 & missing MSVCR80.dll) - the DLL is not missing. tgried to install today and it failed - what a waste.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall go to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Problem with the hierarchial fields in a Purchase order xml report

Hi,
I am having a problem with the hierarchy problem. We are populating attribute 15 of a PO header. some times it can be null. FYI, we are using 11.5.10 instance where oracle supports direct PO template rather than having a rdf file.
And now in the xml report, if attribute15 of po header is not null then it is fine.
But if attribute15 is null, then the template is picking from the next available attribute15 that is from the po lines. As the line level group of "LINES" is between the "PO_DATA" (header group), hence the template is checking for next available attribute15.
Can any one please suggest how to design the template where we can make the template to check only for that tag at the header level group rather than the line level group tag?
Thank You in advance.
Regards,
Srinivas.

I have a problem with the latest version of itunes not responding when i open it.

Every time i open itunes on my PC i cant do any thing and have to use task manager to close it as it keeps not responding

Thanks but I had already read this, and it was no help at all. Under the Summary tab, "Options", there is no check-box to manually manage my stuff. I suspect this is because it is a 2nd gen iPod, with ONLY manual management. The only way to delete my stuff seems to be to reset the entire device.
I like to listen to podcasts. What is particularly frustrating is that the 4th gen shuffle CANNOT play podcasts, but ONLY music, which I discovered after a lot of research and multiple visits to an Apple store. So I have to resort to an older version of the shuffle to play podcasts And now with the latest version of iTunes there seems to be no way to delete any podcasts on the older version. Apple just makes it harder and harder for us podcast-lovers, driving us away from Apple -- driving me away from the entire brand and from ALL Apple devices, not just iPod.

Problem with the discount field in PO form.

Hi All
I have a major problem in the PO form when ever I capture an invoice and then i insert the amount like R 100 000 then I try and add it with out maybe be a date in , the system will give me an error about date which is fine then I put in my date , then before i add the doc i change the total amount in one of the lines then the system inserts discount in the discount field automatically.
If i first entered R 100 000 then changed the amount to R 15 000 the system enters a discount of 85%.
Can anyone please explain this to me.
Thanks
Bongani

Hi Gordon
Issue solved the user was entering the amount in the total column not in the unit price column.
Thanks

Problem with the Signature field

Hi All,
Good day. I am having problem making a script work in the Adobe LiveCycle. Basically what I am trying to achieve is lock most of the fields on a form when the signature field is click. Note: Not all the fields should be locked. I then wrote a sample script with one of the field as follows:
if(employeeSig.rawValue !=null){
EmployeeLastNa.access = "protected";
But surprisingly it does not work. I have placed this code on the Click, PostSign, and even PreSign events, respectively, but it does not work. I am just wondering what I may be doing that is wrong.
Thanks

Hi -
rawValue does not work on signature fields, so that code will do nothing. Use the collection feature in the signature panel to lock particular fields:
Create a collection then modify it to lock whatever fields you need.

Problem with the "from" field after upgrading to IOS 7

Dear list members,
For years I have been using multiple e-mail accounts with my iPhone 4 without any trouble. However, after I upgraded to IOS 7, a strange bug is happening.
When I try to send an e-mail from my iPhone, using my iCloud account, to another person or another account of mine, every time I type an address in the "to" field, the "from" field changes automatically to some of my other accounts (most of them from Google). Then I have to correct the "from" field every time, which is very annoying.
Is there a way to solve this bug?
Thank you for your attention.

I have a similar problem, using iPhone 4 and iPad 3. I can connect to the iPhone hotspot (iPhone show the blueish bar on top of its screen and says 1connection is active). So far so good, BUT, the iPad gets no symbol (the chain showing its linked) nor internet access. Sometimes the symbol comes but still no internet. By resetting the iPhones network settings I get it to work immidiately after, but after putting my iPad to sleep there will be the same issue over again. Please come up with a solution. Maybe I need to restore both devices? I don't like the idea though. It just works, huh?!?!?

Problem with the state field, brazilian store

I had my applications installed on my ipod 3rd gen, then i lost them when i upgraded to iOS 5. Now, i'm trying to get the applications back in the iTunes Store, but it insists on veryfing the payment method and complains about the state field, witch is filled with 'RJ', and then the following message is displayed: 'Inclua no máximo 3 letras ou números para estado', in portuguese, witch translates to 'Fill at most 3 letters or numbers for state'. Anyone can help?

Yes, same here. I cannot complete my registration process due to the same error. My state is correct, which is RS (two letters only). I don't know what else to do. Refer to the image below. Thanks!

Problem with the instalation/launching of Itunes 7.1

first of all...I upgraded MSN 7.5 to live messenger (big mistake) and since I wasn't happy with it I tried to return to my old msn,so I made a restore system to 2 days before that,no problem here,but after that I tried to launch iTunes and it couldn't open, arguing it can't launch because there's a problem with my audio config
I tried to fix this with the guide in the site and it still doesn't work, I uninstalled and reinstalled both versions (7 and 7.1) and both have the same error,also my msn doesn't have any sounds so...maybe that **** crappy live messenger f*cked up some of my config but as much as I do I can't figure it out how to fix it.
anyone please help me here

it can't launch because there's a problem with my audio config
typically that's caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for video and audio playback.)
the following document may be of some help with that:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes had detected an audio configuration problem
