I own Thousands of CD's an have spent countless hours copying them over to my computers.. I buy an iPod and notice something strange my covers are a messed up a little, so I spend the time to fix them. I by an iPhone and once again the covers are screwed up. now today I notice they are all different.My iPod my iPad and my iPhone as well as my iMac and Windows PC's this has to be an issue with the iTunes software.What happened? how do I correct this without loosing all my time again. this has also affected my music that I have purchased from the iTunes store.

Hello there,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Your iPod's artwork cache may have become corrupt. I would suggest clearing it out and rebuilding it. To do this:
1. Plug the iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on its device name on the left pane of iTunes if necessary
2. Under the Music tab, remove the check mark next to “include album artwork on this iPod.”
3. Hit Apply to sync the updated changes.
4. After it has finished syncing, place the check mark back next to “include album artwork on this iPod” option.
5. Again, hit Apply to sync the updated changes.
6. Lastly, properly eject your iPod, and verify that the album artwork is correct.
Hope this helps.

My album photos are all messed up!!

after i synchronized my ipod, all the album photos were all messed up!
This is my first time to encounter such thing. I tried to reset it (pressing MENU and the central botton at the same time for a few sec.) and also update my ipod, bt none of these could help.
What else can i do?Does anyone also have this problem?

1st - itunes downloaded to my ipod albums that are all fractured, compilation albums are seperated.This should not have happened but itunes felt it knew better. I do not like it.

1st - itunes downloaded to my ipod albums that are all fractured, compilation albums are seperated.This should not have happened but itunes felt it knew better. I do not like it.
2nd - While trying to fix it, itunes made all albums and artists unknown
3rd - While trying to get an answer I am unable to contact anyone or even send an email requesting an answer.
4th - While trying to use the "fast lane" i ran into trying to find the product S/N, I went to my account and it was not there. I tried to see it on the back of the Ipod but had to find a magnifying glass to even read it.
5th -- The we will get back to you really ****** me off
6th -- I have wasted 2 hours to fix something that should not have happened and the situation is worse than when i started
7Th --- Itunes management of songs is terrible and there are NO instructions and even worse no support
8th ---- Apple is going down the toilet because the products are good, not great, and the itunes instructions are non existent
9th --- to even suggest i pay for product support is insulting and a sign that apple is desperate
10th -The suggestion for online feedback is this; BE ON-LINE SUPPORT, NOT WHATEVER YOU CONSIDER IT TO BE NOW.

I agree with stevejobsfan - (0123).
However, if what you actually want to do is to fix/sort out your problem, why no try posting a question on that subject?
For starters - you can re-name the tracks in your iTunes library, so it is possible to correct the changes that you must have made that mean that songs are now "unknown artists and albums."

IPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up

Hi, my iPhoto 11 events' dates are all messed up.
I tried a solution that I found in the forum in which one should delete file com.apple.iPhoto but I don't have the said file.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Yes you do. In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
You can then find and delete the necessary preference file.

I just got an iphone 4 yesterday. I got everything all set up and working great. When I woke up last this morning, my ipod has no sound and the albums covers are all mixed up. I've checked all my settings and volume control. My text sound won't work either. However, my ringtone works just fine.

Have you taken the steps recommended in the User Guide: restart, reset, restore?

Permissions are all messed up in 10.9

I installed Mavericks 10.9 on my 2008 Mac Pro desktop a couple of months ago. Then the monitors (2 of them) developed odd patterns. Apple Care (AC) tried to help me start 10.9 in Safe Mode, but when the progress bar finished, the computer shut itself off. We could never start in Safe Mode. Then AC diagnosed a hardware problem and recommended an Apple repair shop near me. The the video card was bad and they replaced it. But when they got things running, the permissions were very screwed up. They spent a lot of time repairing them (I don't know how), and then they upgraded the MacHD from a 1.5T Seagate to a 2T Western Digital and cloned the old MacHD to the new 2T drive. I took the machine home and still had permission problems and other problems. Adobe Acrobat Pro would not print PDF files, which I fixed with a suggestion from the Apple Forum. Then Photoshop CS4 gave me a "License Expired" message (Error code 150:30). I fixed that from the Forum (Adobe Community > Downloading, Installing, Setting Up > Discussions: Error code 150:30), with a fix that required a little entry in Terminal ($ sudo sh install_fnp.sh). That allowed me to open Photoshop, but when I turned Photoshop off and restarted it I got the "License Expired" message again.
On the advice of Apple personnel in the Apple Store in Spokane, I unstalled Photoshop CS4 and reinstalled it from the CS4 Suite DVDs, installing just PS with all the supporting apps that the installation automatically chose. Then when I started PS, I got an error "Don't have adequate permission access" or something like that that has been addressed in the Forums. From the Forums, I followed the suggestion of adding "username(me)" to the permissions window of the Info panel of the MacHD and choosing "Apply to enclosed items". That got rid of the "Don't have adequate permission access" error, but I got back the "License Expired" error again and PS wouldn't open. When I tried the "sudo sh instyall_fnp.sh" fix again, I discovered that I couldn't log in to Terminal:
Last login: Thu Feb 20 18:27:35 on console
login(12166,0x7fff7cf59310) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fe65b500180: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
[Process completed]
Meanwhile, using Disc Utility and "Verify Permissions" I see that my Permissions are still totally messed up. So I don't know what to do now.
I also have a Macbook Air. I see that in "Disk Utility > Verify Disk Permissions", the Permissions are also messed up on my Macbook Air, on which I installed 10.9 recently, but it seems to be working ok, so I have just left it alone.
I'm the Administrator and only User on this system. The Permissions remain a huge mystery to me. What is the difference between "Administrator", "System", and "Username(me)"? Should all these be present, with "Read & Write" access? And how do you fix such global Permissions problems?
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

Xorg graphics are all messed up and glitchy (screenshots) How to fix?

I've set up a new system, but the graphics are super glitchy!
Here's what gdm (gnome) looks like when i enter run level 5 with an existing xorg.conf file:
and here's what it looks like without xorg.conf so settings are automatic:
With the first setup (xorg.conf included) there's no way to log in.
Without xorg.conf, you can see the loging windows and log in, and when you get to the desktop, the background remains all messed up just like at the login screen.
Any ideas what might be wrong? i'll be right back to post my xorg.conf

4.2 now Safari bookmarks are all messed up

bookmark bar is all messed up many of my bookmarks are gone and I can't add any to the bar now. it has also done the same on my iPad

So, do you think Apple is gonna get a fix out for this? Just curious, as they were the ones who were so big on the whole idea of Stacks in the first place.

The font i used in my KEYNOTE presentation is not available when you upload it to the cloud. So, now my text boxes are all messed up. How can I select ALL font boxes of presentation and change (at least) the font style?

I have a large presentation that I need to access from the cloud THIS SATURDAY. Now, after uploading from my iMac to Cloud, the font is all messed up because the font I selected on my mac is NOT available on the Keynote Cloud....so capitalization is wrong, inconsistent, etc.
Is there a quick way to select all text and change the style? Help..I am running out of time!

What's the URL of the page?
In the mean time clear the cache and reload the page.

Upgraded Itunes now videos are all messed up

When I upgraded itunes tonight and plugged my ipod back in, somehow my videos are all labeled as songs and are taken out of the video section and put into the song section..and when I play it it just plays the audio and not the video and the TV icon is removed in my library..
does anyone know how to fix this without having to reload them because that is a pain!
Thanks!

JMMD,
Check the RAM and CPU Voltage and check the timings on your RAM.
I would then load the latest nVidia nForce & ForceWare Drivers
Take Care,
Richard
I'll check all the settings again but they looked fine when I glanced at them. I basically always left everything at default.
Would I need to reload them (Nforce and Forceware) if they're already installed? If so, I'll give that a shot.

Did you take note of all your setting before flashing?
Did you make sure all the settings were correct after the flash?
Did you try a complete CMOS clear and set all the settings back again?
I never really changed any of the settings. I'll check them again but they were basically all defaults or auto.

Email fonts coming from PC's are all messed up!!!

To my knowledge I have not changed any settings but for some reason the headings on email and the forwarded info (not the content) seem to be all messed up. When I was entering an encrypted word for an apple change I couldn't read what I was typing and it was rejected so I guess they couldn't read it either. It doesn't impact the day to day mail but I would like to know what this is and how to fix it! More specific-the text is small, dark and all mashed together. Impossible to decipher. Thanks to everyone
