Can't scrobble songs with "&" (ampersand) to Last.fm

Hi,I'm not sure if this is issue with Spotify Web Player or maybe something wrong with Last.fm.Every time I listen to songs or albums containing & in the title it's not scrobbled to Last.fm. All other songs are properly scrobbled. Is there any way to scrobble songs with problematic characters in title?

How do you know they are "clean"
If you right click on the songe in iTune and select Get info does any age/content restriction show?

How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?

I have iTunes 12.0.1 on my Windows PC. I'm about to get a new iMac (hooray!) and I'm beginning the process of transferring everything on my PC to my Mac. I've got all the documents, pictures, files, etc. covered, but now I have to make a copy of all of my music.
Most of the music in my iTunes library is not bought through the iTunes Store (I download most of my songs from the Internet). Then, after saving the downloaded song to my computer, I go into iTunes on my computer and add the song. I also add metadata like artist, album, genre, album artwork, etc. to the song in iTunes. What concerns me is that only the songs in iTunes have this metadata: the original downloaded files I saved onto my computer don't have any metadata.
I really don't want to have to go through the long and tedious process of adding artist/album names, genre, etc. to every single song in my iTunes library on my new iMac. How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?
Thank you so much for any help!

Hello! I'd like to learn more about Home Sharing. To do this, would both my PC (which I hope to get rid of) and my new iMac need to be plugged in?
Also, after Home Sharing with the old PC is initiated, I understand that all my songs would appear on my iMac. Is there a way to copy all of these (with album artwork, name, artist, etc.) directly to the iMac's hard drive and then disconnect home sharing so I can get rid of my PC?
Thank you!

Hello HoopsMD,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that the display on your iPod nano (7th generation) is not responding to your touch as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article and working through the steps within to help resolve this issue.
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting - Apple Support
Display
Follow these steps if your iPod doesn't respond to your input or has a display-related issue.
Screen is unresponsive and displays Apple logo or white screen
Reset iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Home button until you see the Apple logo appear. If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes.
If the Apple logo does not appear, or if the iPod is not seen in iTunes, connect it to iTunes and try to restore.
Touch screen does not accept input
Clean the screen with a microfiber polishing cloth.
Do not wear gloves while using the touchscreen. Do not use the touchscreen with wet hands or immediately after applying hand lotion. Moisture affects touchscreen behavior in the same manner as it affects a trackpad.
If you have a protective plastic sheet or film on the touchscreen, try removing it, because it may be preventing the touchscreen from working properly.
The current application may be unresponsive; try resetting iPod by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home buttons simultaneously for a least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Sync with iTunes and restore the iPod.
Have a great day,
Joe

How can I export songs with full info (INCLUDING LYRICS) to file for future use? [x]

Hi everyone,
I got my new iPod touch 4th gen, and I spend literally all day to edit songs' info like Artist, Lyrics, Album... with like thousand songs.. Then I've tried to export them fully for future use as back up, but I could not find any option to do so. Exporting library and playlist only saves info for basic tags but no lyrics in it. So what should I do? I've tried iTunes Export and mp3Tag but I still could not do it.
I would appreciate much any help for me to back up full information of songs for future use.
Regards,
[x]

Thanks for the responses.
I forgot to mention the dimensions I need the file to be at, sorry. Overnight Prints requires that the uploaded file be at 2.13 inches wide by 6.13 inches high (or 638 by 1838 pixels) at 300 dpi. I think I understand what Scott Falkner means by pixels are not a unit of measure. However, I have been using inches in Illustrator, with the file being set to the height and width (in inches) required by Overnight Prints.
Here is what I have uploaded to Overnight Prints so far:
- Illustrator file set to 2.13 inches wide by 6.13 inches high – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but shows the bookmark as pixelated/blurry.
- Saved above Illustrator file as copy: “Press Quality Preset” PDF – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but the bookmark is still pixelated/blurry.
- Exported same Illustrator file as a PNG (638 pixels wide by 1838 pixels high - 300dpi) – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but shows the bookmark as pixelated/blurry.
- Creating an Illustrator file at 638 by 1838 pixels makes any file that is uploaded preview on Overnight Prints as too large, but not pixelated/blurry (I think I now understand why, just covering all my bases).
So, I guess my more specific question would be:
How can I create a file that I can upload to Overnight Prints (TIF, PDF, JPG, EPS, PNG, or AI) that ends up at the dimensions (in inches) required, while not appearing (at least in the upload preview) as low resolution (pixelated/blurry)?
Thanks in advance for any responses (especially to such a novice question).

OK, I finally got it - do the following:
1. Connect Pre to your computer in USB mode.
2. Open search feature and search for "ipod controls" file in the Pre drive (on my computer this is drive E
3. On the search feature, go to advanced tab and tell it to search for hidden files.
4. It should find ipod controls.
5. DELETE, DELETE, DELETE
Keep in mind that this will delete all previously uploaded music installed by using *ughhh* itunes. I love it. Now I just drag and drop all music to my Pre drive. Hope this helps. It is nice to have a fresh start without having to wipe the entire phone. Good luck out there.
This worked brilliantly!!! Thank you so much!! Pre is set......only issue now is that fact that half my music in iTunes is in a Protected AAC file format that the Pre can't play

Can you load songs with anything other than iTunes?

I'm trying to re-install itunes after my PC collapse, but I can't and I really want to upload new music to my ipod, but I can't, can I use any other software other than iTunes? Cuz seriously, I don't know what's the problem with iTunes, but I can't install it.

There is a lot of software for iPods that allow you to transfer music and more.
There are things like anapod (http://www.redchairsoftware.com/anapod/featpw.php), ephpod (http://www.ephpod.com/), podplus(http://www.ipodsoft.com/index.php?/software/podplus),and even a winamp extension (http://www.mlipod.com/).
They aren't hard to find, just search.

Can you purchase songs with itunes 6?

Hi
I am currently using itunes 4.9 but am asked to upgrade when i want to buy a song from the itunes store. Will upgrading to itunes 6.5 let me buy songs as an interim measure whilst itunes 7 gets itself sorted out?
Anyone out there still on itunes 6 downloading songs successfully (from UK) - let me know! I dont need to download vids.
Cheers

Silly question - if I upgrade can I take my songs with me

Hopefully this is a dumb question. I currently have a 20 GB ipod color. If I wish to upgrade at some point in the future to a video ipod, will I have to pay again for the content that I purchased since Itunes is linked to one ipod?
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
No, as long as the songs are still in iTunes. You can use the songs with as many of your own iPods as you like.

Itunes verifies your account using your billing info.
If your credit shows in the top right side of the itunes store, then it will take it from that balance.

Can'y play songs!?!?!?!!

Hi,
Ive had itunes songs and playlists etc saved on an external hard drive. I restored my laptop to factory settings, installed latest itunes blah blah blah...
All loaded normally, as I've done a few times now (grrr) and got double all my songs, found a topic to fix that, huraaagh!!! But now I cant play any of my songs, instead get a message saying "the song "xxxxxx" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
I've searched and so far found no topic similar to this. And all suggestions to a solution either don't work or don't apply to my situation.
I can locate the the song and it does work there after. But I have over 5000 songs! This all happened months ago, I just didn't sync my ipod. but now my ipod has died (another grrrrrr) and need a new one but have no way of getting all my songs on there... I cannot start from scratch as I've got alot of playlist to keep.
Someone please help me!!!!

Hi Katrina S.
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately my problem isn't solved by the link you've kindly added. I've done several searches, had email support with apple, and phoned the help line. So far with no positive result. I will try explain my problem in more detail as best I can, I'm not the best at this so please bear with me..
I saved all of my songs on an external hard drive (copied the itunes folder) Reset my laptop, installed latest itunes and copied the contents from my external hard drive to my new itunes folder. I've checked and confirmed this is the correct folder under "edit/preferences/advanced" tabs.
All of my songs and all of my playlists show up correctly on itunes, exactly as they had done on previous occasions. But all songs now have an exclamation mark to the left of the songs name and when I select a song I would like to hear it won't play and I get a message saying:
"The song "xxxxx" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"
If I click "Locate" (the only other option being "Cancel") I can find the song with ease, as it's in a sub folder (usually named the same as the artist) within my itunes folder, which is the itunes location folder. After I do this the problem no longer exists for that particular song and I can play it anytime I like.
I have aprox 5500 songs and you can easily see how this isn't a practical solution. Starting from scratch would be very upsetting considering the time it took to go through all my songs and make playlists etc.
If there has been a thread about this very problem and I have missed it's location please do send me it. But I really couldn't find a thing on it???????
