Artwork is not saved to file since iTunes 7 release !?!?

Hey Guys,
With the new version of iTunes I turned on the "Find Album Artwork" and surprisingly it did find artwork for much of my music library where artwork was missing.
I assumed that this Artwork was being stored on the mp3 files, , just like in previous versions of iTunes, but have just recently found that it is NOT!
Rather, it is being stored in a series of folders outside of iTunes in a .ITC format. This is really really a bad idea, only to save in .ITC format. Removing existing functionality without user awareness is not a good thing.
Please save it to the file as well.
Thanks,
McoreD

Yep, iTunes is getting more invasive and secretive like Windows software every day.....
the default settings for Windows Media Player are to go out and get auto-updates from the internet.
This iTunes auto-art thing has busted a couple of other programs I use my music files with. I have to make sure I clear downloaded artwork before I do anything else.
What a pain!

  • PSE not saving edited files to the organiser

    For no apparent reason my PSE 11 application seems to have developed an annoying glitch whereby part way through an editing process it stops doing as requested in the "Save" options, by not saving edited files as version sets of the original file in the Organiser. The files are saved OK to My Pictures and I then get advised that a file is available to import and I have to import each one, stack it with the original, and put the edited file on top. This is driving me nuts as I have about 1000 photos to edit. What is causing this problem? My only thoughts are that I have c.30000 picture files in the Organiser (but this hasn't caused any problems in adding new files)  and that the problem seems to have arisen since I started editing files directly from within an Album.
    Help

    It's the first time I see that bug mentionned in PSE11, but it's an acknowledged bug in PSE12.

  • SQL Profiler running trace - where do the rows go if not saved to file

    When SQL Profiler trace is running, there are thousands of rows generated and shown in the trace window. Since I am only looking for deadlocks, I am not saving them. Are they just discarded, else where do all those rows go? I really don't want to fill
    up the log file.

    From your description, it seems you are running Profiler while saving events to a file.  All of the displayed events are also written to the file.  If you don't need events other than deadlocks, you should not include those in the trace to begin
    with.
    Be aware that a Profiler trace can significantly degrade server performance when many events are captured.  If you must capture a large number of events (or run a trace continuously), I suggest a server-side trace (or Extended Events file target)
    instead.  This will allow SQL Server to stream data directly to the trace file without the Profiler tool overhead.  You can script the Profiler trace for server-side tracing from the Profiler File-->Export menu.  Save and customize the
    script (file name, max file size, etc.).  You can view the trace file(s) using Profiler or fn_trace_gettable.

  • Can I choose to not import mp3 file into iTunes?

    On my Macbook I have a Music folder on my hard drive where I save all my music I copy from a CD or download from another source other than the iTunes store. I know that when I import into iTunes essentially another digital copy is made and stored in iTunes and that I have the option to either turn that off or delete the original file in my Music folder. Because I now have two copies of each song, it's filling up my hard drive quickly.
    I am not keen on deleting the original files since I don't want to disrupt the integrity of the file in case I ever decided to migrate away from iTunes. If I choose the option in iTunes to not copy the media into iTunes and keep it in my original file, are there any cons to doing that? I'd be open to listening to any other options as well.
    Thanks - any help is appreciated.

    The file is not altered. It is the same file. It is simply copied into the iTunes folder.
    You can use it elsewhere now, same as you can if you later decide to "migrate away from iTunes".
    If I choose the option in iTunes to not copy the media into iTunes and keep it in my original file, are there any cons to doing that?
    You have files in multiple places. iTunes library files in one place, media files in other places.
    It is much, much easier to manage everything if it is in one folder (iTunes).
    If you put the files into /Music/iTunes/ iTunes media/Automatically add to iTunes/ folder, it will be moved and not copied. Nothng to delete.
    I keep a shortcut to this folder on my desktop..

  • AE CC 2014 Export to C4D not saving any file

    I just got into CC (was using CS6) and today I wanted to export a C4D file from AE, like I have done always with AE CS6, but there seems to be a problem. I click on export, Maxon Cinema 4D Exporter, then select the folder and type the file name, click save and it closes like normal, but the file I supposedly saved, is not created anywhere. Anyone has the same issue?

    Apparently the problem is with the folder I was saving the file. I saved it to another hard drive and it saves the file just fine. Is there a limitation for a folder structure?
    Another issue is that the scene only includes the camera and not the solids or text layers. If I export from AE CS6 it includes all that.

  • Big problem: KN08 not saving KN06 files

    Hi everyone,
    I have a big problem with keynote 08 (4.0.1). Antefactum: last year our department finally migrated from powerpoint (mac, obviously) to keynote (3.0.2). So I opened all our powerpoint courses and conferences in keynote and saved them as keynote files, fixed all the little problems due to conversion and happily started to use only keynote. In december we updated to Leopard and KN 08, and here started the problem: if I create new files in KN 08 everything works perfect; I can create a new presentation, save it, update it with new material and save changes. Instead, if I open one of our KN 3.0.2 presentations in KN 08 he lets me do every modification but when I try to save it as KN 08 he tells me that it’s not possible. This is pretty frustrating, because I have something like 1 Tb of presentations and I don’t need to create new ones from zero, I need to update the existing ones with new material. Anyone knows why on earth KN 08 doesn’t let me do this? I mean, I can’t believe Apple programmers didn’t notice this problem, and I don’t want to think they thought this “function” would be fine either. If it’s a bug, anyone knows how it can be fixed?
    Neptune

    Hi Kyn Drake,
    first of all let me thank you for the answer I updated to KN 4.0.2 but the problem remains. The message I get is "impossible to save document "(filename)", or "impossible to save document "(filename)" as "(new filename)", in case I try to save it with the same name or with a different one. This happens also if I do not modify a presentation at all: that is to say, when I open one of my presentations in KN 08 the red button in the upper left corner of the window already has the dot inside, which means that the document "is not saved". If I just try to save without doing anything to the presentation it still presents the problem. It doesn't even allow me to export it as a powepoint, I tried and still it says it is impossible. I can't really understand why, and I can't think I'm the only one who has this problem ?!??

  • Can not find WMA files in iTunes, for borrowing library books with Overdrive Media Console

    I have borrowed audiobooks from the library, using iTunes and Overdrive Media Console for years.  some months ago, I was suddenly unable to.  thought it was my old computer, so bought a new one.  took weeks to be able to get an upgrade from Windows, and when I was finally able to thought my troubles were over.
    but, no,  now the Overdrive Media says it can not connect to iTunes.  someone at Overdrive said iTunes had to be the default player for WMA files, but I can not figure out how to make that happen, since there is nothing that looks like 'WMA files' anywhere on my computer.  any advice?  I can't afford to purchase audiobooks, and I really miss being able to borrow from the library.  this new computer has Windows 8 OS

    There is a OneClickdigital ereader available in the App Store. Download that to your iPod to read pdfs and books from the library. And you might need to download the OneClickdigital eaudio player to listen to audiobooks from the library. Once both are downloaded sync you iPod again to transfer them.

  • With LR 3.4.1 my keywords are not saved to file

    Since upgrading to LR 3.4.1 my keywords are no longer saved to the files so I can not see them in an external application. If I revert back to LR 3.3 it works OK. Any ideas?
    I have the option set to automatically write changes into XMP.
    I tried to write metadata to files manually and that does not work either.
    The files are .jpg
    I'm using a Windows 7 32bit PC.
    Thanks...

    External drives often have special ACLs on them that can cause access problems for some apps. All it takes is for Lr to change how it accesses file and file metadata (even a change that made it more "correct" -- i.e., a bug fix for some other problem) and it can uncover ACL issues.
    I don't know what you would have to do on Windows to remedy this, but on a Mac, I would make sure that the drive is setup to be "shared" so it has additional special ACLs on it that allow ownership to be taken.
    But, you want to start at the root of the drive, and reset ALL the ACLs (NOT just the "permissions" which are older, simulated and incomplete settings, and making sure to recurse through the entire folder structures) such that the owner/creator and admins have full control. There may be other special ACLs required if you want to share this disk with different users on different machines. This part I am not familiar with, but it comes up often on Windows support sites. Look or people having similar problems with Windows remote disk services.
    Remember, if you have a login on two different Windows machines (assuming you do not have some sort of network-wide login) this is technically two different users (even if they have the same name).

  • ATV not custom syncing ever since iTunes update??

    Alright- I've had a few problems with my ATV here and there- but for the most part, I've figured them out without too much headache. Now with the last iTunes update (8.0) it is telling me that I may have a port glitch within my firewall software for the AppleTV on my cpu... So what's happening is when my cpu is on, my ATV will automatically sync as usual which is great- I can run everything fine- no problems; However, if I try to custom sync any content- add or remove- it will give me the error message I described above. I'm not necessarily the best at networking glitches... but I checked my Network Utility and did a port scan on my IP and it said that the port that the AppleTV was looking for was open... any clues on the best way of solving this? Should I try a factory restart to reset this issue or will this not be the right step to solve this?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance... =-)
    Steve

    Thank you Winston for your quick reply =-)
    Well, I am set up for file sharing with my wife's MacBook... but it is rarely ever on, and requires user login to connect the two... no remote access or anything running. We do have a PC in the house that shares the network- but no file sharing going on. As far as the 3rd party apps, everything on our cpu is essentially stock off the shelf- no virus software or other network interferences- my cpu is tied to my router via ethernet cable and my other 2 cpu's and AppleTV are protected via WEP on my home network. The only thing I have changed on my cpu is the location of my iTunes Library to a TB external hard drive for storage purposes. Otherwise everything is as it was when it was taken off of the shelf. So I'm not sure if a 3rd party device is interfering here since my AppleTV is otherwise working fine (renting movies occasionally, youTube, etc.), if I did have any problems on that front- I'd think maybe it messed up the settings with my router, but I don't think that is the case here. I hope this gives you a little more of an idea of the network I have... any direction you can give me is very much appreciated.
    Thanks again in advance,
    Steve

  • InDesign not saving certain files

    Any idea how to solve the following issues?
    I have 6 versions of a 32pp A5 InDesign document, each one a different language. Working on them all yesterday. 4 worked fine, and saved all the work done on them. 2 appeared to be working most of the day, and saved work I was doing in them until about 3pm. However, these both say that they were last saved 2 days previous. Since 3pm, neither of these documents has saved any work done, and I haven't been able to save or close the documents, with or without saving changes. To close InDesign I have to Force Quit. The InDesign Lock Files appear to remain open even though the documents are not open. I have tried saving the documents under a different name, but that doesn't work. The colour of my pasteboard also reset itself to the default colour.
    My colleague started getting these issues a couple of days before I did in a similar document she was working on. She did a lot of work on the document one day, and saved regularly. However the next day she went into the document and found that none of her work had been saved, and the document says it was last saved on 14th November! Because of this, she created a new document, and was copying everything from the problem document over into the new one. That appeared to be working initially, however some work she did in the new document wasn't saved, though other work that was done in it later was saved.

    I seem to recall some bugs in the initial German release of CS5.5, but that may not be pertinent.
    I suspect this is just creeping corruption from multiple conversions. Best practice when converting from Quark or Pagemaker is to immediately export to .idml to clean up as much crud as possible, and it's safer to export legacy files to .idml as well, then open those for conversion in the new version. We see too many reports of bad things suddenly happening with converted legaicy .indd files.
    At this point there may not be much you can do if you are not able to save as (does CC still offer Export to .idml?). When you've given up all hope of saving the current state, if the files are still open, you can try a force quit and reopen ID. Sometimes autorecovery will work and you will have most of the current state, and the ability to save .idml might be restored. It's a gamble, so save for last.

  • "Media kind" metadata not saved in file

    This has been noted in other threads, but I am wondering whether it is simply an iTunes bug, or whether there really isn't an ID3 tag associated with Media Kind.
    Are there any third-party tools that can modify this tag (and that iTunes will read on importing)?
    Bill

    Media Kind is an internal iTunes property and not part of the ID3 specification. Apple could have chosen to use a custom field, as they do with the non-standard Part of a compilation flag, but haven't. Mostly the correct value is inferred from file type or determined when content is added to the library. For example, Digital Booklets downloaded from the store are treated as Music, PDFs added by the user are treated as Books. You might be able to make smart playlists that catch any incorrect assignments so you can repair with a few bulk Get Infos. At present Media Kind isn't accessible to third party scripting, and may never be.
