Can't edit/change the information on some of my songs

Hi everyone
The information on some of the songs in my library can't be edited.
I thought it might be a tagging type problem so I went to Advanced menu and the 'Convert ID3 Tags' menu item is greyed out.
These aren't purchaced songs.
I've looked at the files in Finder and I've got Read/Write permissions.
Does anyone know what's up and how I can get round or correct this?
Thx in advance.
Sam

Has anybody else had this problem?

  • How can I edit/change/update/remove album artwork for a song in iCloud?

    Dear Community,
    my problem is the following.
    I'm editing my songs/albums artworks and when I change these artworks, iTunes Match syncs my artworks back to the original ones.
    I've tried a lot of things, read a lot of discussions but I didn't find a solution for this problem.
    For example:
    I've deleted for an album all of my songs artworks, then set the good one. Then I've done an update for iTunes Match in Store menu. My artworks didn't changed on an Apple TV2
    If I just delete the artworks, do an iTunes Match upgrade, the artworks on an iPhone 4S & Apple TV2 remains the same (I've also removed the songs from my iPhone and redownloaded them...)
    I used TuneUp iTunes plugin for song identifying. It did a very good job, changed my artworks, my metadata, everything looked good. After a few minutes iTunes Match synced, the artworks restored to the old ones, but the metadata info didn't changed, it is updated in iCloud too.
    I'm also tried to get artworks from iTunes, it worked very well for some albums, but again: iTunes Match synced...
    I've turned off iTunes Match, done the album editing. Again when I've turned on iTunes Match, the album artworks restored..
    In my opinion if I use a cloud service, anything I do locally in my iTunes library, it should sync up to the cloud. EVERYTHING means music, music metadata, music artwork etc.
    So what is the solution?
    What can be the reason all of this?
    Someone has the same issue?
    Is it a bug?
    One more thing
    In this album all of my songs has the same artwork (David Guetta: One Love)
    Look at the BRAVO hits cover

    Try this, it has worked for me.
    1. Make a new, empty iTune library by launching iTunes while holding down the Option key.
    2. Choose create new library; do NOT have iTunes scan for music.
    3. Enable iTunes Match on the empty library.
    4. Find the tracks with the wrong artwork, highlight them, Get Info and paste the correct artwork into the "artwork" field.
    5. When finished update iTunes Match, then re-launch iTunes while holding down the Option key and chose select library to get back to the "master" library.

  • HT1399 When I import a CD to itunes, it splits the album in to multiple entries. I have changed the info on some but others just will not merge. Is there an easy way to do this and can I stop them from splitting in future? Thanks

    Okay this is what fixed my problem. Some kind of error/glitch occured half-way through importing that third cd that prevented further imports from any other cd. Once I completely removed the half-imported cd album from my library I could further import cd's without any problems.

  • How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    Hi flaviusjack,
    If you still have the .doc files, it might be best to send those to your recipients so they can be edited. Otherwise, you can use ExportPDF to convert the PDF files back to .doc format. But, again, that step would be unnecessary if you have the .doc files.
    Best,

    Hey louiseg45826294,
    Thank you for posting on Adobe forums.
    Could you please let me know what Adobe Writer program you are talking about. Is it Adobe Acrobat or Reader?
    Could you please share the screenshot of the exact error message that appears.
    Are the PDF forms saved on your computer's local drive?
    Hope to hear from you.

  • I try to play a song, but iTunes has changed the information on the file

    After installing iCloud, my iTunes suddenly started changing the information on my music files. I would go to play one song, but another song would play instead. I have a PC. Does anyone have any idea what the cause and solution might be?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Does not let me add text to my verizon website. This adding text feature works well on internet explorer. I can click on add text, the box opens up but I can not type in the box for some unknown reason. What can be done to correct this problem ...

    does not let me add text to my verizon website. This adding text feature works well on internet explorer. I can click on add text, the box opens up but I can not type in the box for some unknown reason. What can be done to correct this problem ...

    I didn't search before, but "you are not alone" (the thread [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/747424 In Verizon's Sitebuilder for webpages, I can not edit text boxes when using Firefox. I do not have this problem if I use Internet Explorer. Is there a setting I can change in Firefox to correct this problem?] has 18 votes for "I have this problem, too).
    I can only guess about the reason... Firefox works with many websites' "rich text" editors, but ones that haven't been updated for five years may assume that Firefox is the old Netscape browser and use scripting techniques that don't work in Firefox.
    If Verizon has a different "basic" or HTML editor that you can tolerate using, you could try that. It might not be subject to the same incompatibilities.
    If I someday get a Verizon account, I will surely be looking into this further, but for now, it's hard to suggest anything else.

    No, I get my mail on my computer, not on a website. I used to be able to see the information but in sorting another issue I must have changed a setting or something. I have gone to View. Under Message Attributes most things are ticked but many of them are not bold print i.e. they are pale grey. I don't know how to activate them again.

  • Can no longer change the G/L account in AO90

    Hi!
    I have a problem changing the G/L account in AO90 for an account determination where I have posted the wrong account. Since I have already created assets with an account determination that includes this account, it says that I "can no longer change the value '124000' for the G/L account.
    I have found some threads with info f.ex:
    - AC476 in transaction OBMSG, but it require SAP entry
    - reverse the posting values in transaction ABF1, but I'm not 100% sure how to reverse it...
    How can I remove the asset/reverse asset values so it will be possible for me to post the correct account? I'm currently working in a dev system, so these are fictive assets that I can delete (which I cannot do as there are values on them). But i have to get this in order to transport the correct properties to the test system.
    All help much appreciated!
    Regards
    Haakon Bekkestad

    Its Very Simple.
    To change GL Account for asset class first remove GL Account in A090 i.e.
    put it as blank and save it.
    Come out from AO90 transaction code and change gl account.
    It will posted.

  • Trying to change the labels for some UI elements

    hi,
    Problem:  I am trying to change the labels for some UI elements and transport the views from one server to another server.
    the lables show changed in the source server but the changes dont reflect in the destination server
    Kidly help me to slove this problem

    Hi Sharad
    The process is as explained:
    1.     Firstly, go to the respective view, and to the Label and then delete the Label Text as   
                    mentioned in the attribute u2018TEXTu2019 of the Label in the view.
    2.     Next, Activate the View, if it asks for a change request, please assign it to a new TR.
    3.     Finally give the Label text again and then Save it and activate it.
    4.     Further transport the request to ECP and find the difference.
    This especially happens when we frequently change the WD Component and embedd it entirely in the Transport.
    I hope this information would be of a great help to all of us.
    Ponts if helpful.

  • Why can't I change the names of my states in my symbol?

    For some reason, Fireworks won't let me change the names of my states in my symbol.
    I double click on the state name in the states panel, and nothing happens.
    It works fine for normal "non-symbol" pages.
    Can you normally change the names of states in symbols?
    Any ideas why I am having difficulty doing so?

    Thank you SO much! Funny thing, I didn't even notice the tiny folder icon at the top of the info window until I saw it in the screen shot at the beginning of that article. 
    See, I have begun changing the icons of the folders of digital scrapbooking alphabets I have (screenshot below). Now it will be so much easier to scroll through my hundreds of alphas and choose one, because I can SEE them without going in and out of each folder.
    A million thank yous!!!!! 

  • Why can't i change the setting at the security

    Why can't i change the setting at the security & privacy? After I switch to OS X Yosemite, i cant install some application. It says that I can install due unidentified developers. Can anyone help?

    You can change the setting, you may need to click the lock at the bottom of the preference pane. Be careful what you download and install, Gatekeeper is there to help you. OS X: About Gatekeeper - Apple Support

    Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
    PhotoToMovie  $49.95
    PulpMotion  $129
    FotoMagico $99
    Final Cut Pro X $299
    It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.
