Anyone know how to restore the itunes created playlists?
In a fit of stupidity, I deleted the itunes created playlists(purchased music, recently played, etc.). I was just wondering if anyone knew how to get those back on my source list, and also on my ipod mini. I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music. Any help would be greatly appreciated:)
Thanks

"I tried to go the smart playlist route, but there is no criteria for recently played or purchased music"
Sure there is....
For 'Recently Played', you can:
1) 'Last Played' 'is in the last' xx days/weeks/months OR
2) Uncheck the 'Match' condition and check the 'Limit' condition to however many songs/GBs/hours selected by 'most recently played'
For Purchased Music:
Match 'Kind' contains 'Protected'
Recreate the Smart Playlists yourself. Name them anything you desire.

Hi, hope someone can help, I am not Mac savvy. I had a system failure for some reason, and did a complete restore from a backup drive, and now no System Preferences. I had since also had the backup disk fail, so no other backups to work from. I am currently trying to restore these with a file salvage software.
The system runs fine, but, I cant change anything in the preferences. The PrefPane list is still there in the same file PreferencePanes. Thank You
System below
OSX Mavericks, Intel 24inch 2009, 8Gig Ram, 1 TB HDBut, If I boot it from the DVD using the R Button will that work?
No.
Will I Ihave to start from Snow Leopard?
Hopefully not.
Here's the thing: your Mac is older and I do not know if it has the updated firmware so you actually have a recovery partition (part of every OS since Snow Leopard - takes the place of install DVDs).
So, you can test that: choose restart from the File menu and when you hear the bong, immediately hit Command + R. If you get a grey screen with one window on it like this:
If you see this, choose to reinstall OS X and it should install the current system.
If your regular desktop appears, then you don't have a recovery and will need to start from the Snow leopard DVD (insert CD, choose restart and hold down C key) and then reinstall from there. You won't need Lion - just update Snow Leopard and then re-download Mavericks. -
Does anyone know how to manlipulate the itunes 8 database
I have a compilation of 16 cd's with each having 15-20 titles. For some reason disk 11 of 16 won't play in the secquence that it was loaded in. it plays disk 10 and then starts disk 12. Under the Genre, itunes says that it has 2 albums 291 songs. In reality it is 1 album w/291 songs.
You need to be in the US. Are you?

My macbook pro's screen display has suddenly gone into a strange colour setting where everything appears in a kind of infrared colour palette an I can;t seem to change it back. It's the same for all icon and websites, does anyone know how to restore?
Wow! I think I had this same issue just last night.
I was cleaning my macbook pro retina on the outside. Then I opened it up and was wiping dust off the monitor and I can't pinpoint exactly when, but the colors changed suddenly. It looked super strange, it was like green halo's and it looked worse when looking at it at an angle. Of course I took no pictures!!! I was freaking out that my 2 grand laptop was busted and I somehow removed a protective film or something.
But I digress... The image looked very green and spacey, it was almost a neat effect. After about 5 minutes it started to look a little more digital though. There were straight lines of this halo effect on the edges and top. After about 10 minutes it turned into a predominate issue with the blacks on screen. I could open a web browser and it was unnoticable on a white background. After about 15 minutes, you could only barely see the green cloud effect if you looked at the monitor from an extreme angle. After about 20 minutes, it was completely back to normal, I almost feel paranoid like I see a halo or something strange. But I believe that might be all in my head now.
So yerp, lemme know what you guys figure out. -

I have had iOS 7 since beta 1 and I love iTunes Radio. After the official release my iTunes Radio icon dissapeared and became a genius one instead. This is really frustrating anyone know how I can get iTunes Radio back?
I have this issue too on my iPad. I went to the multitasking screen (double click the home button) then force quit iTunes (swipe the iTunes screen shot upwards) then relaunched iTunes and it appeared again. I think it is a bug as I've had to do this a number of times. Hope this works for you.

please does anyone knows how to delete the "others" on the iphone becuase it take me a lot of spaace and i cant have anything i have 5 GB of othres coan some one help me please?
If restoring using your backup didn't work, you'll have to save as much of your data as you can (import your photos to your computer, sync your contacts and other data with iCloud, email things like Notes and Voice Memos to yourself, sync with iTunes to transfer all your purchases, etc.) and then restore it as new without using your backup.

Does anyone know how to restore mail signatures in Mavericks?
Does anyone know how to restore mail signatures in Mavericks?
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in earlier versions there is only one.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
OB52 Posting Period Close: Does anyone know how to automate the close?
Does anyone know how to automate the FI Period Close (trans code OB52)? Currently, the business users go into the screen and open and close any periods manually. For the MM period close, we are able to do so because we found the program to use in the batch job. For some reason, the FI side shows the program SAPL0F00 but this is only a view and will not allow a batch job to be created. Does anyone know of the actual program used for the FI period close?
Use program RFPERIOD_OPEN. It may help. For further details you may check the following thread.
