Since upgrading to 10.8.5 some of the tracks in my library are listed in chinese/japanese characters..not English!

Since upgrading my macbook air (10.8.5) and ios7 a large number of tracks in my library are listed in chinese/japanese characters..not English! of the 670 tracks or so around 30% are now in another character set (far eastern), not English as they were. Same on my new iphone 5s.

Strangely enough the pref file did not show up in the Preferences folder. I don't know what this means but it could be signifigant.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

Try this as a first step; 
Clear the Cache '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"''''' 
and 
Remove Cookies '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"''''' 
If there is still a problem,
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
While you are in safe mode;
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.

The only observations are that the backup drive is deemed too small and the quite long list of diagnostic reports dated between Jan 18, 2015 (which I believe is the day I upgraded to Yosemite) & today the latest Yosemite update was installed on Jan 28, 2015
Any further assistance will be appreciated

As for the TimeCapsule indeed, I use it as an extended drive but I'm surprised it would be considered a FAT-32 formatted drive as this is an Apple device.
I asked the apple reps if I could use the TimeCapsule for such purpose and no one raised a concern. It's also surprising that I didn't have an issue with this prior to the upgrade to OS X Yosemite.
Having said the above, thank you for your help - if the TimeCapsule is indeed the issue, perhaps I can solve the issue by transferring the iphoto library to an OS extended hard drive.

Since upgrading to Mavericks from time to time the focus for the cursor is misplaced when scrolling

Since upgrading to Mavericks, from time to time the focus for scrolling is misplaced. If I click into the list of emails, the mail message in preview scrolls. If I click into the mailboxes column, the list of emails in my inbox scrolls. Have anyone else seen this issue?

What upgrade did you apply? As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

Error - some of the videos in your library were not copied to the ipod because they cannot be played on the ipod. why? Videos in question were purchased from itunes

Got error - Some of the videos in you library were not copied to the ipod becasue they cannot be played on this ipod. The videos were purchased from Itunes, so not sure how to fix this?

For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem. How do I stop that from happening?

For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem. How do I stop that from happening? I keep having to delete my library!

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

After restoring my device from backup, some of the apps I have purchased are missing in the purchase list

Hi,
i have backed up my device on iCloud and my computer.
After restoring my device from backup, some of the apps I have purchased are missing in the purchase list.
It seems that i need to pay for them again in order to purchase.
Can you please help?
Thanks,
Shirley

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you checked they are still available in the App store.
Did you purchase them all from the same account.

I loaded a disc into iTunes and some of the tracks are double listed in iTunes.

Yeah, I loaded "Imagine" by John Lennon into iTunes on my iMac. Some of the tracks came up in iTunes double listed. I tried dragging one of the listings to trash and it said it'd remove the track (oh no!).
I have unticked the duplicate tracks atm, but is there a simple solution to remove the duplicates or should I simply reload the disc?
Haven't seen this before....

Delete and redownload by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I uploaded music in the match and when i want to play it in my phone, some of the tracks appear blocked (blanked) and a few not. When I'm connected through a wi fi spot, i can play all of the tracks. Help!

Hi,
You need a wifi connection to stream. Previously played tracks appear in a temporary cache which allows them to be played again when yOu have no wifi..
You can either predownload selected tracks or use cellular data.

ITunes say Some of the videos in your library were not copied to the ipad, what am I doing wrong?

I bought movie on my ipad and watched them. I then bought movies on my HP desktop from iTunes but when I synced my ipad to get them to download it took off the movies and won't let me download any of them, it says Some of the videos in your library were not copied and cannot be played on ipad, but I think I've done everything right. Does anyone have a suggestion?

the only time i ever got that error was when i would drag videos i encoded myself into itunes (not purchased from apple).
the solution for me was that the audio track was not in the correct format. ipad and iphones want the video to contain
a H.264 video track
a AAC audio track
when i would try to import m4v videos and i got that message it was because the audio track was not AAC and it was another format like MP3 or WMA/wav

Several times I've downloaded albums from iTunes to find that some of the tracks did not get fully downloaded so that the track with skip to the next one. Can someone tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it?

Several times I've downloaded an album from iTunes to find that not all of the tracks were fully downloaded so that some of the tracks will skip to the next one (instead of finishing the song). Can anyone tell me why this happens and how I can fix it?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies.
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

Since upgrade from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 the conversations in Outlook do not group by subject

Hi Microsoft,
Since we have upgraded from Exchange 2007 to 2013 users complain their conversations in Outlook are no longer grouped based on the subject of an e-mail. I looks like Outlook uses other message properties for grouping e-mails in a conversation.
I have investigated all the forum topics and see that with exchange 2010 there is support added for the use of conversation-ID's. However the functionality to automatically group e-mails with the same subject in one conversation in Outlook is gone!
I would like to know if there is a fix to implement so that some our users get this functionality back. For Example: Let the exchange server not generate conversation-ID's and message-ID's for certain users.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Totally correct!
If you don't plan to maintain Outlook then you plan to fail :(
