Changed informations will be reset to initial when iTunes plays them

Hi all,
I spent hours updating my songs with accurate informations only to find out as soon iTunes plays them they will be reset to the initial informations and the whole work was for naught.
How can I make those changes permanent?
Please advice.

OK,
Once again, I'm not sure about this information, if it will work, or if you're willing to do it. I'm gonna copy/paste one of my earlier post in another thread, that might be of some help:
"If none of the above suggestions worked for you, and you're willing to go to such lengths, you could Google "mp3 tag remover", use one of them and apply it to the offending song(s). Apparently, I just learned, there are some id3 tag information that a user, such as yourself, cannot edit or even see through normal means and that is proabably what's causing your difficulty.
In another thread, someone else had difficulty playing an album (In rainbows by Radiohead)due to hidden tag information and solved it by the procedure I've outline previously, (the Google thing...).
Please Note: I can't vouch that this will work or, God forbid, that it won't cause other difficulties down the road. "
If you do this and it does work, this means though, that all previous info will most likely be erased and you'll have to start all over again. Also note, that I never did this procedure myself, and I can't vouch for its safety or efficacy.

  • Some AAC files are truncated when iTunes plays them

    When I had iTunes 6, I went through and converted all my MP3's to AAC using the Advanced > Convert Selection to AAC option. When I upgraded to iTunes 7, it stopped handling some AAC files correctly. When they play, they get almost to the end, then abruptly stop and the next song plays. Quicktime handles these files perfectly, and plays them through the end.
    A. Why is this happening? (Are they encoded badly? I feel like this can't be the case, since I've only used iTunes to encode my files, and Quicktime handles them fine)
    B. How can I fix it?

    Actually, no I don't have crossfade playback on. The files cut out anywhere from 5 - 60 seconds before the file is supposed to finish, it really has nothing to do with crossfade...

  • Will i have to repurchase games i bought on my iphone for my ipad as they are in a smaller screen when i play them

    Will i have to repurchase games i bought on my iphone for my ipad as they are in a smaller screen when i play them.
    also isnt game center supposed to save my progress in a game as it is making me begin the games all over again.

    Not necessarily.
    Some games are "universal", meaning they are for the iPad and iPhone natively.
    These are denoted by a "+" on the price/purchase button.
    iPhone games will work on the iPad, the screen can be doubled in size.
    The graphics aren't as nice looking and text tends to be fuzzy.
    No, game center is about badges and finding opponents for games.
    Your game progress is saved when you sync with iTunes.

  • Trying to add podcasts to shuffle I tunes says they are there but when I play them only a few are available?

    trying to add podcasts to shuffle I tunes says they are there but when I play them only a few are available?

    Hello rhdarby2,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iPod shuffle: Playing audiobooks and podcasts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1831
    Adding Audiobooks and Podcasts to iPod shuffle
    The Autofill feature of iTunes will not add audiobooks and podcasts to any iPod model. They can be manually added by dragging them to the iPod shuffle in iTunes.
    For iPod shuffle (3rd generation), you must enable Manually manage music in the Summary tab to drag songs to iPod shuffle. Additionally, you can automatically sync audiobooks using the Music tab and sync podcasts using the Podcasts tab in iTunes.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Hi guys, I've been given some .mov files to use. When I play them I can hear the audio but the pictures are green. The client says they play for him. I am on mac 10.5.8 and FCP 6.0.6. Any clues as to why this is happening?

    Hi guys,
    I've been given some .mov files to use on FCP.
    When I play them I can hear the audio but the pictures are green. The client says they play for him.
    I am on mac 10.5.8 and FCP 6.0.6.
    The files details are the same as a file that will play.

    I've been told this happened to somebody else last week, but didn't get a resaon why.
    Any clues as to why this is happening? I suspect it's a codec issue of some sort
    Cheers,

    FC 6 supports 29.97 & 25 IMX frame rates but a third party plug-in is required:

    This plug-in costs $100

    This software is cheaper at $30 and will let you test drive it for free

    There may be a free option available but I'm not aware of it.

    I downloaded two albums yesterday and only half of each of the songs have downloaded when I play them. There is nothing to say it is waiting for the rest to download and I have checked for available downloads...help please!

    no, i had to leave so i logged out and when i opened itunes on my mac and went into the downloads tab it only had one paused download listed. i resumed the download for the one movie listed and the other one never showed up. its been about two weeks since i initially bought the two movies so i figured something was wrong.

  • I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
    The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
    Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

    If you have manually manage set, you do not sync.

  • Nano 5th Gen will NOT reset or connect to iTunes

    I've tried the usual toggling of the hold button followed by the menu/select button on this Nano, which has worked on other models that I own. This Nano will not reset and isn't recognized when plugged into iTunes. Just the black screen no matter what. Out of warranty, so any suggestions other than taking to Apple would be greatly appreciated!

    If none of the suggestions mentioned in the iPod Nano 5th Gen. User Manual and on the iTunes & iPod Hints & Tips website, you should take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. If you have Apple Care, take advantage of it by calling them.

  • Help !! I recorded videos on my blackberry playbook but when I play them back on my mac they're mute, no audio.

    I recorded videos on my blackberry playbook, however when I play those same videos on my playbook there is audio and video. When I play the videos on my Mac (Mac Mini, running Snow Leopard) the videos work fine except the audio is dropped. The strange thing is that up until about 3 weeks ago, I could play the video and audio on my Mac. Only videos recorded in the last 2 or 3 weeks will not play properly on my Mac
    Does anyone know how to fix this ?!

    What are you using to play the videos on your Mac, Quicktime X? Try VLC Media Player or MPlayer OS X Extended.

  • I have iTunes and am downloading Music videos from YouTube for use on my iPad! They play great on my iPad, But when I play them on my PC in iTunes they skip like a rapid fire machine gun??? Can anybody help me

    I have iTunes and I am downloading Music Videos from YouYube to be used on my iPad! After I download them using YTD Video downloader they play great on my iPad... However when I try to play them on my PC in iTunes they skip like a rapid fire Machine Gun! Can anybody help???

    You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device.  If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match. 
    Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

  • I have recently bought a Seagate Goflex satellite mobile wireless hard drive. I have converted some of my AVI movies to mp4 and transferred them to the hard drive, but when I play them through my iPad 2 I can hear the sound but not see the movie. Help???

    I have recently bought a Seagate Goflex satellite mobile wireless hardrive , i have converted some of my AVI movies to MP4 and loaded them onto the hard drive, when I try and play them through my I pad2 I can hear the sound of the movie but not see the film, somebody please help, what am I doing wrong as I have spent a lot of time converting these movies to be able to travel with my iPad and watch them. Thank you

    Unfortunately, the drive is pretty much restricted without hacking it. That is, you can't stream its content via standardized protocols like UPnP, SMB, FTP and the like. This makes you won't be able to access its content from any third-party apps otherwise capable of playing back AVI files from UPnP / SMB / FTP / WebDAV etc. sources.
    While this is certainly not a recommendation (I can in no way be held responsible if anything goes wrong): you may want to consider extending the capabilities of the drive by installing the hack: http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/wordpress/welcome/
    It'll "open" the drive for third-party, AVI-capable multimedia apps like GoodPlayer, It's Playing etc. to directly play the files over the network.

  • After installing iTunes 10.5 all my mp3s in the playlist are distorted when i play them

    After I updated my iTunes Version to 10.5 everything seems to be alright, but when i played a song from my libary it sounds very distorted.
    This is only with my Mp3 files. When I played a .m4a file everything is alright and like the time before.
    So what could I do?
    I reinstalled my iTunes, Quicktime etc. and checked my audio device + reinstalled the audio driver.
    Nothing happens and the problem is still present.
    Thanks!

    System restore  did put back my previous version of Itunes, but I couldn't open it due that my library file was made by Itunes 10.5.  So, I uninstalled Itunes usingthe Control Panel's Remove Program, but that didn't delete everything, so I had to manually delete Itune files.  Then I weny to cnet.com to install aprevious version of Itunes. I had to build my library from scratch.
