Artist/album names missing when adding folder (but not all of them)

Yesterday I found iTunes couldn't locate the folder where I store MP3 downloads - ie. I got the dreaded '!' alongside most tracks. When I used the Add Folder command I ended up getting a duplicate of virtually every track.
However most of the duplicate tracks were only shown with the track number on the original album plus about 12-15 characters from the title (ie. character string used as a label for the MP3 file). There was no detail of the artist or album.
Given the large number of duplicates involved I decided to clear out the library and have just used Add Folder. Same outcome - 1/3rd of the tracks described in full; the other 2/3rds just show track number and some of the title.
Suggestions on (a) where I'm going wrong; and (b) whether I can use contents in the Previous iTunes library folder to recreate the library would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

As I've already said this question has been answered maybe no one is monitoring this topic but ... I've just worked out the reason the detail is missing is because the tracks which have limited detail are in WAV format.
This is where I am completely lost because they have all been downloaded from the iTunes store or from Amazon as MP3 files, and I'm not aware either of the download functions comes with an add-on called "automatically convert to WAV".
The irony is that this is quite convenient but if anyone can provide an explanation of how it is occurring then I would be interested to hear because I can't figure it out. May still trust my sanity, but not my memory!

My iTunes password will update some of my Apps on iPad but not all of them. When I try to update the remaining ones, my password expires. I've just created 5th PW. Does anyone else experience this?

- Try going to Setings>Store and sign out of the account and then sign back in.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

My ios update did not load to my iPhone completely. I have some of the new features but not all of them.

I have some of the features but not all of them. It seems that the download did not complete.

Where are you looking for Siri voice selection? It should be in Settings/General/Siri. You must also choose a language that has a choice of voices. US English and Canadian English do, UK and Australian do not.
What do you see in Settings/Wallpapers & Brightness? You need to tap one of the 2 images to see the selections available.
As I said, it is impossible that the installation is incomplete; you just aren't finding the new features. If you want to reinstall anyway, upgrade iTunes on your computer to 11.1, then connect the phone using a USB cable directly to the computer (not a hub), click on the iPhone's name in iTunes, then click the Restore iPhone button.

I downloaded my previous purchases but not all of them were there. Where can I find them?

I got a new computer, authorized it on my account, and downloaded some of my previous purchases but not all of them showed up. Is there any way I could get them? How would I do that?

HT203167 Some of my Itunes playlists have been deleted but not all of them. I never deleted them myself, just one day they didn't appear in my playlist section. How do I recover these playlists?

So recenlty I went to my Itunes library and realized a number of my playlists have been deleted but not all of them. I never deleted them myself just one day they weren't there? How do I recover these?

Do you have a backup you could restore them from?

My iPhone 4 just suddenly deleted all my contacts ? I turned my phone on off and some came back but not all of them ??

I was using my iPhone got a text opened in and all my contact names had gone went into my contact and it had deleted them all . I turned my phone on and off and 100 came back but not most off them what do I do ?

I suggest you immediately make a backup of your data. You don't know if or when the computer will show some symptoms from the drop. You may want to, for piece of mind, take the computer to an authorised service center for assessment. No one here can assess any internal damage you may have done.

When I use my bookmarks my PC locks up but not all of them or all the time. What can I do?

When my PC locks up I have to disconnect power to get it to respond. This has been happening starting Sunday 04/12/2015. I have McAfee security on my PC and have no viruses.

Did you check Firefox Safe Mode? (See above)
To open the '''Bookmarks Manager,''' press the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key bring up
the tool bar, and select '''Bookmarks.''' Hot key is '''<Control>''(Mac:<Command>)'' <Shift> B.'''
Locate one of those bookmarks and click on it once. Look at the bottom of
the manager, look at the properties. Does it look okay? How about the
others?

Moving multiple audio keyframes within a clip...but not all of them

I have a highlight video with an underlying music bed where I've dropped the levels when I have someone speaking to the camera.
I had to shorten the video and need to re-align the keyframes for some of the sections of music back up with the audio of the video clips.
I've figured out how to shift all the keyframes together in an audio clip, but I can't find anything on shifting only a certain selection of keyframes within a clip. I'm hoping that there is an easier way to do this than moving each keyframe individually.
'FCP Help' mentions using the Range Selection Tool, but instead of moving keyframes, it cuts out the section of the clip that is selected and moves it.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Is this an IMAP account?
If so, create some locally stored mailboxes with Outlook to transfer and sort messages from the server stored mailboxes. This will store the messages locally on your computer's hard drive and remove them from the server at the same time. The iPhone's Mail client will download messages available in server stored mailboxes only with an IMAP account. The iPhone's Mail client also includes a setting to download and show only recent messages with the following options.
25 Recent Messages
50 Recent Messages
75 Recent Messages
100 Recent Messages
200 Recent Messages
So all messages will not be downloaded at one time. If you choose show 200 Recent Messages, when you get to the bottom and want to view message 201, you must download more messages.

How to get some of the records but not all of them in a query

Hi there I have a query which returns the events that do not have the mrreceived as 'Y'. Am trying to find a way how we can rewrite the query that gives the events without mrreceived as 'Y" or mrreceived as null but the events with both of the combined?
{code}
select c.client_id,
e.event_id,
e.mrreceived,
e.event_status_code,
e.proj_batch_id,
p.providername,
p.clientproviderid
from event e, client c, clientprovider p
where e.client_id = c.client_id
and e.clientproviderid = p.clientproviderid
and c.client_id = 1250
and p.clientproviderid not in
(select distinct b.clientproviderid from clientprovider b, event x
where b.clientproviderid = p.clientproviderid
and b.clientproviderid = x.clientproviderid
and x.mrreceived = 'Y'
and e.client_id = 1250)
{code}

Firefox will no longer let me save bookmarks to established folders. It displays a handfull of available folders but not all of them.

No,
the MacPro is the muscle machine and not constrained by power or cooling limitations like the MacBoo Pro is.
OR AT LEAST BE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR REALLY HEAVY STUFF?
If you press the MacBook Pro like a desktop machine, it will blow fans like a hurricane but will do the job eventually.
The longer you blow fans on a laptop, the sooner it clogs up with crippling dust and shortens the life of the machine.
You'll need the top end 15" or better, not the 13" as it has no dedicated graphics, only CPU graphics.
Preferably if you just now getting into video, you should be considering Avid on a Windows 7 tower, it's because Apple has been ignoring the MacPro for hardware updates to improve it and it seems like they don't want to carry it anymore. Also the last Final Cut Pro version had Hollywood up in arms as Apple removed a lot of required abilities to make it more "consumer friendly" which upset the Pro market who likes control.
Apple is focusing on the consumer computing market and getting away from the "Pro" market which needs the heavier hardware to handle video needs. They stopped selling the X-RAID and the X-Server, so Apple really isn't a "computer" company any longer.
Sure you can use a MacBook Pro and a external monitor for doing home movies and such occasionally, but if your into serious production you need to consdier other options now.
There is nothing wrong in getting a MacBook Air and a Windows 7 professional video tower too.

I just opened Foxfire and it automatically imported bookmarks from safari, but not all of them. How can I get the rest of them ?

I still have Safari on the computer with all my bookmarks. Not all of them came over to Firefox. How can I get them over. Also I had some in the toolbar that displayed over the window. Does this browser have that feature?

Export the bookmarks in Safari to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.

HT4527 When transferring iTunes from old computer to new computer, even though all of songs were copied over, not all of them went to iTunes, some appear to be stored elsewhere. How can I find these songs, and how do I transfer them to iTunes?

When transferring iTunes from old computer to new computer, all my songs were copied over, but not all of them were stored in iTunes. It appears they are on the computer somewhere, but not on iTunes. Where are these other songs likely to be, and how can I get them onto iTunes? Because of this problem, Apple will not allow me to update my iPhone.

You may/must have had music files stored outside of your iTunes library.
I'd recommend going to the Finder and then via the search box look for files with mp3 aif m4a aac etc. depending on the music format your digital music had. With the list of files shown you should be able to learn which files were stored outside of your music > itunes folder
Chances are they could be burried somewhere under your documents, downloads, desktop, ... we all have different storage and organization habits.
Then when you find the missing files, on the new computer you can do add to library and go to the folder on the other computer where the missing files are - if your systems are networked - or sneak them over using a USB thumb drive or portable hard drive if you have lots of files, or if you like to have an extra backup of that music, copy to optical disc.

Migrate SOME apps but not all?

Is it possible to use migration assist to migrate SOME Apps but not all of them? If so, how?

No. Migration Assistant will transfer the entire folder but you cannot selectively transfer individual applications. However, you can simply copy items from the Applications folder to the other computer via Target Disk Mode without the use of MA. Although this will work just fine it will not automatically include any other associated files needed by the applications transferred such as Applications Support files, preference files, or other installed files. Therefore, it would be better to simply reinstall the individual applications or transfer all of them, then delete what you don't want.

Can sync some of my music but not all of it

Ever since I updated to iOS 7, whenever I try to sync my iPhone 5s with my MacBook, some of the songs will go onto my phone, but not all of them. In iTunes under the "On this iPhone" tab, it shows all my music, but the majority of the songs are greyed out with a circle next to them. I have no problem syncing my iPods and iPad, all my music shows up and plays on them. I restored my phone and my phone and iTunes are both updated, but that didn't help. Any ideas about what's causing this and how to fix it?

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.
