Any song with a bitrate lower than 96kbps is "Ineligible"

But my problem is, I have some about 950 episodes of speech radio series and allmost 70% is bittrate lower than 96kbps and some about 150 lessons of French language also in bitrate lower than 96kbps. I cann't upload these files to iCloud. Convert it to higher bitrate looks very stupid. Any suggestion?

The generally accepted work-around is to to make an AAC copy within iTunes. If you wanted to use a third party solution to make MP3 files that comply with the minimum bitrate, you could do that instead. I imagine the benefit to MP3 would be smaller files.

In ITunes,
my library was about 55 G. I have a Ipod Classic 160 G. I synchronised my IPod
on ITunes and I checked the tag Convert
songs with a throughput greater than 128 kbit / s ACC before
synchronisation I took maybe 6 hours to synchronise, and afterward my library was
about 42 G. All my tunes, more than 9500, seem still be in library. Most of my
library is from music purchased in ITunes store along with copies on my old CDs
an some MP3 files from other discs. This is good for me but what happened?

This is good for me but what happened?
I don't understand the question... Did something happen that you think should not have happened?
It took such a long time to sync, because iTunes was converting songs with bit-rate higher than 128 kbps "on the fly" while syncing. That takes much longer than just syncing the songs.
Also, since you have so much space on your iPod (compared to the size of your music library), you should not use that "convert to 128 kbps AAC" setting. For songs that are encoded higher than 128 kbps, the conversion reduces sound quality. You may want to uncheck Sync Music and Apply, to remove the songs on the iPod currently, and then sync it all again without the "convert" setting checked this time.

Can't get any songs with 78p left over - help asap

I'm getting really annoyed that i can't purchase any songs as it keeps saying my card has been declined, ive checked and rechecked details, checked balances, everything is fine, and i still have 78p left from my itunes voucher. Does anyone know what to do?
so **** frustrating.
reply ASAP

Well, 78p is 1p too short for a track ...
As for the card, have you checked with your bank that it is ok? If it's been declined but you have funds, then either Apple or your bank is at fault - so try the bank first (marginally easier to get in touch with)

New MacMini.....Any problem with hard drive greater than 500gb?

I'm interested in buying a new MacMini. I could definitely use a hard drive larger than 500gb though. Is there any problem installing a drive larger than 500gb? Since the Mac store only offers 320 and 500gb, I'm wondering if there is some limitation (special size?) or other problem.
I'd rather not have to use an additional external drive.
Thanks in advance.
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
any 2.5" SATA harddisk with a maximum height of 9.5mm fits in the Mac Mini.
OSX doesn't "care" about the amount of GB the harddisk has.
With the above specs 750GB seems to be the largest widely avaiable size but 1TB should be avaiable too.
Have a look at MacSales or NewEgg.

Is there a way to mass delete any song with an exclamtion point next to it?

All of the sudden after resetting the sync history in iTunes (while trying to troubleshoot the fact that the upgraded OS4 was only syncing about 25% of my total music library), all of the sudden all of the tracks that it didn't sync (the other 75%) all have exclamation points next to them in iTunes, which for each song indicates "The song can not be used because the original file cannot be found".
Therefore, is there a way to mass delete all of these song names in iTunes? (then I can copy and paste the actual files into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder and the path to the file should work? (THEORETICALLY OF COURSE)... and... What would cause such a random error? (So frustrating because iTunes can locate where the file is when I click the button "yes" to the question "Would you like to locate it?", but at the me time two seconds earlier it's telling me "The original file cannot be found". ????????????????????????????????????????????????
Truly RIDICULOUS apple. It's like DUDE, ***? Is this some kind of strange gliche with the new piece of crap OS4 (which I don't even need because I didn't get one of the "four" iPhone 4's that were released)?

Therefore, is there a way to mass delete all of these song names in iTunes?
Yes, you can simply highlight all the songs with the exclamation point at once and then RIGHT CLICK and choose DELETE. This will remove them from the iTunes list all at once.

Yes
What would cause such a random error?
Either the patch was disconnected somehow during the upgrade OR user changed the music's location (which in this case you did not).

Screen savers+iTunes library dose not contain any songs with artwork.

iTunes Artwork saver does not work. Any suggestion.
ITunes 10.5. MacBook Pro Mid 2010. Mac OS X(10.7.3).

I have just purchased a new Imac running 10.8 mountain lion, after loading new songs into itunes I too had no screen saver working showing the art work.
This had nothing to do with voice memos, no other items were connected so have tried this method and it works twice on both computers, the other is running leopard.
If all your music is on the main hard drive, check in finder and your itunes folders should be in music, all I did was make a new folder and call it music 2, make sure its under music on the left hand side, drag the itunes music folder containing only the music into this. From this go to itunes in applications delete itunes into trash, restart computer then download the latest version. When all opened up you should get a home page showing get music from icloud or scan for media, press scan and let the new version find it on your computer, when finished go to screen saver settings and notice the itunes screen saver working.
I don't know why this works either its a software fault with apple or just my luck, but I have had no problems since and looks greats on the screen.

Finding songs with low-res coverart?

I have some songs with low-resolution coverart in itunes - since it used to just be for my ipod/iphone, it didnt matter.. now with the ipad, its very obvious (once it goes full-screen). Problem is, I don't know which of my songs have low-res artwork. Is there a way to easily find this out? like sort out "Any songs with images under 250x250"?

I've slowly replaced old, low res cover art on iTunes. There is no way to search for it under those parameters, so the best thing to do is start over (unless you have a really rare album cover, but we can fix that too).
Select all of your songs in iTunes library. Right click on any song (all will show up) and Get Info. Click the box next to artwork (should be in white). This wipes all of the album artwork you have stored (yes, you're going to have to do this).
Now, go to Advanced, Get Album Artwork, and iTunes will populate all of the photos with High Res versions (in my experience, it is high res, but I can't guarantee that all will be).
Some albums, those not licensed on iTunes, will require you to go to Amazon. Find the album, copy the image and paste it in the Artwork section of each album.
This should work.

How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs? Some are louder than others.

How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs? Some songs are a lot lower than others.

Coverflow in iTunes is sorted by Album Artist whereas coverflow on the iPod classic is sorted by Artist. Unfortunately, there is no way to set this on your iPod. This is such a fumble on Apple's part that I'm beginning to think they're becoming another Microsloth with buggy firmware and products.

Cannot sync songs with iTunes since activating Match

Since signing up for iTunes Match I cannot sync songs to my iPod Touch or iPad anymore, it forces me to download them from the iCloud, now multiple times since I have multiple devices. Is there a way to still move music directly from iTunes to my device?

@bmorgan
stuart is correct. Enabling match says "erase songs son device" however that is simply apple's way of saying "we will replace those songs with higher bitrate songs form icloud - you don't need to do anything.
itunes match is a service to have your entire library AVAILIBLE any time you have an internet connection - which most people do most of the time. Match is for those of us who do not want to take up 30 Gb of storage with music we hardly listen to, just for the one instance we want to "hear that song".
do as stuart suggested. Turn off match on your ios device, sync to itunes, then re-enable itunes match. the same songs will be there as before (if higher bitrate songs are available, they will download whether you like it or not. To avoid this, I would replace all matched songs in your computer's library with the icloud versions - this would keep your ios device from wanting to replace music when you turn on itunes match.

ITunes Artwork Screensaver "Your iTunes Library does not contain any songs

i have been using the iTunes Artwork Screensaver on my 1.25GHz PowerPC G4, running Leopard 10.5.2 and it has worked perfectly, showing all my album artwork. i got all the album covers from amazon.com or google. i have always kept my iTunes Library on my Boot Drive and have never moved it.
Yesterday when my computer went into screensaver mode (itunes artwork) the message "Your iTunes Library does not contain any songs with artwork"!
This is really strange, as all the albums in my library have artwork. i have also tried deleting the iTunes Artwork Screensaver preference file.
I know that there are many issues with the artwork screensaver, but i have not found a solution to this problem.
I would appreciate anyones help!

i'm glad to see that i'm not the only one with this problem. i have seriously tried everything, like deleting the preference files of the itunes screensaver, using a script to embed the artwork, repairing disc permissions but i the screensaver just won't work. the message that my library does not contain any artwork still appear every time.

Widescreen resolutions LOWER than 1680x1050?

I have a MSI Geforce 7600 GS AGP 256mb graphic card and a Samsung 226BW monitor. My problem is, that I can't get any widescreen resolutions that are LOWER than the native 1680x1050. This is a problem, because I don't own the fastest machine (a 3ghz P4), so running games in the native resolution is impossible. Anybody who knows what to do here? Is it my graphic card that just doesn't support these resolutions, or is there something you can do about it?
I have updated my nvidia drivers, without any luck. I also tried to make all resolutions available, but this only gave me widescreen resolutions HIGHER than 1680x1050, which is no good...
Anybody who can help?

7600GS supports widescreen natively.
I think as far as gaming resolution is concern, the game should automatically refer the setting that the game is running.

BUG: Unable to publish any photo with a width or height 800 pixels.

My first attempts to publish a Photo page resulted in an alarmingly consistent: "Publish error: an error occurred while publishing file {filename}.jpg". These are standard .jpgs from a variety of digital cameras which I've been putting up on various photo pages using Homepage directly in .Mac, so one would think that they would work in iWeb without a hitch.
Well.... it just doesn't work, and it stalls as soon as it hits "Uploading Photos..." before I eventually get the "Publish error" described above.
This appeared to be file dimensions related (I was able to get a much smaller image to publish), so I investigated.
A file that's 667 wide by 1000 high fails every time. Scale down to 334 x 500, it works. Trying some sizes in between: 534x800 works. 666x999 fails. (567x850 fails. 550x825 fails. 534x801 fails.
So my guess is, it's looking like any picture with a dimension greater than 800 pixels on either side will fail. Let's test this.
Stretching the image to 800x800: It works!
Stretch it again to 801x800: It fails!
The verdict: can't publish a photo with a width or height > 800 pixels.
(Bug)
Apple: please fix this....! It's possible to work around this for now, but this is totally undocumented and not very friendly...!

Is lower than 64 kbps MP3 format any good?

I've converted all my iTunes Library to MP3 - 64kbps format. I am very pleased with the quality but was wondering if I go any lower will it sound much worse?
I've got nearly 2,000 songs on my iPod and growing. That's why I've converted my songs to such a low bitrate.
Thanks in advance

For normal music listening, most people view 128 as the lower bound for acceptable audio. This of course will depend on your ears, your equipment, and the noise level of your surroundings.
For spoken word recordings, 64 or 48 would be fine.
Do not get into the trap of butchering your music to fit your current iPod. Use the iPod ability to "sync selected playlists" to put a selection that will fit on the iPod.

How to set MTU lower than 1280 with Lion

I am trying to set my MTU to 900 in order to play video games on my computer (this has been a known fix for many who have university network) but lion made it so you can't set your MTU to lower than 1280, or at least not easily.
If you don't know what i'm talking about, under network in system preferences, if you click on ethernet (or wifi) and go to the hardware tab, change it to manual, u will see mtu on the bottom with a (1280-1500).
Thanks

Thanks for the reply,
We need to set MTU to below 1280, but its not allow to set below 1280. Any other way will be helpful for us.
