Changes to metadata not synced URGENT
Hi all,
I have to computers configured with itunes match.
Computer A: macbook pro with osx 10.9
Computer B: a windows 7 notebook
A e B have the last itunes version and an empty library with only the songs uploaded or matched, nothing downloaded yet.
I've tried to manually change the metadata on computer A and nothing being synced with B ora the same A, and when i restart itunes i lost all of my changes...
I'm being crazy with this
This is a bug? How can i solve? there is a log of itunes on osx to see what's appening with itunes match?
Thanks

ITunes album metadata not syncing with iPhone
iTunes 11.1.2
iPhone 5s running iOS 7.0.3
I purchased an album from the iTunes store, which is actually 3 albums in 1.
Once downloaded, I set about changing the metadata so that the albums appear as 3 seperate albums under the one artist. All good - until I sync with my iPhone, when (on the iPhone) the metadata reverts to the original iTunes Store metadata and back to 1 album with all the tracks from the 3 albums out of chronological order ie. track 1, 1, 1, track 2, 2, 2 etc...! Grrrr
Have deleted ALL unecessary metadata fields on all tracks, just leaving the genre, the artist name, each album name and turned off any 'compilation' options. No joy and still shows as 1 album on my iPhone.
Any solutions???

Changed screen resolution, not syncing with itunes
Yesterday I charged up my ipod on a different computer than normal. While charging I was looking at some pics and all was well. However, on reaching home, I discovered that the ipod has zzomed everything and hence I am not seeing all the apps at the same time - only about 3 at a time. This has also led to great difficulty in moving the apps around to open them up. It is still playing music and I have not lost any onfo, it is just very difficult and time-consuming to do it. When I hooked it up to my computer at home it is not being read as being there and hence it is not syncing either. I need help please!!
This is the zoom feature. You can learn about it in the manual ( including how to turn it off):

Synced items generated in 2007 have changed and /or not synced categories/colors
Just purchased and loaded 365 onto a new high spec machine , after a little confusion with registration /user registration etc it is working , some of it looks nice and familiar - word is opening old word files and templates cleanly and looks quite user
friendly
Outlook is presenting challenges , I use a windows phone so set up a live.com acct. some while ago to sync contacts and calendar entries ( I also have my own company domain ,accounts have been successfully set up for that)it has all work ed ok until swapping
to 365 the live act is syncing content but is doing odd things with the categories it is showing the category options with all the names I assigned them - clients ,suppliers technical etc etc
two problems
1 it has changed the colours of all the categories - even leaving some of the previously used colors unused
2 in contacts (now called people ) it has failed to sync the categories for entries although it has brought the names of categories across in the "categorize " option - again with all the colors swapped around
Hoping someone has an answer for this - I do not fancy going through a 1000 or so entries re categorizing them!! :-)
If it helps I have not changed from 2007 on my old laptop - would like to get new system running right before cutting all lifelines!How do you setup your live account in Office 365? Try to use the Exchange ActiveSync protocal to setup live account in your email profile and then re-sync it.
File > Account settings > New > Manual setup or additinal server types > Outlook.com or Exchange AcitiveSync compatible service
The mail server: m.hotmail.com
For the categorize color, please check if the MCL is correct in your profile, the following link may also help you:

Why are changes in mail not synced or applied to other apple devices (iPhone 4S)?
If I delete an e-mail using mac's "mail", it would only make sense that that deleted e-mail shoud disappear if I manually log into my hotmail account using a web browser or check my e-mail using my iPhone 4S. Why is this thing not happening? Why is it when I delete a message it still shows up in iPhone or Safari? What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
* Both of my emails are "Hotmail".What type of email accounts are they? IMAP or POP.
IMAP leaves messages on the server so you can get them from everywhere.
With POP, messages are downloaded to your client and then removed from the server, depending on your settings.
The iDevice setup for POP doesn't remove them from the server.
I think Mail's default setup for POP is to remove immediately.
If they are POP accounts, you can set Mail's preferences to leave messages on the server for a period of time so that you can retrieve them on multiple clients. -
Date changes in Aperture not syncing with IOS 7 iPhone iPad
Hi, there are a certain number of photos in my Aperture library which are showing the correct date or have had the date and time adjusted but when synced to iPhone or iPad the dates are completely wrong. It seems to be fairly random, any clues?
ThanksI recently experienced the same problem wth images that had adjusted dates in Aperture. Though I can't offer an explanation as to what went wrong, I did manage to solve it.
In iTunes deselect any synced photo albums which contain images that are displaying incorrect dates in iOS7 - sync your iOS device (the albums and images will be removed). Now select the photo albums again in iTunes, resync your device - the images will be added again with the correct dates (well that was my experience. Best of luck). -
(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
I don't sync music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them. Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view. I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again.
These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes. My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues.
Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

I can not sync my IPhone to My Imac. I have the latest version of ITunes on my Imac. I have tried reseting my phone (3), changing ports. Nothing works. I was thinking maybe my phone has the earlier version of ITunes but I can't update it.
Did you already have a look at this article?

When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme. How do I change where appointments are put ?
Or how can I choose where the appointment is put ?
I use the mobileme sync services so the ical calendars that are synced are those in the "[email protected]" group.
Please help !
NickActually you can't drag the appointment to ano calendar - its says "You can’t make changes to this invitation., Only the organiser can change this event"
Also if you double click on the received appointment and open the window the only calendars shown that you can select are the 'on my mac" ones, and not the sync'd ones.
Any ideas welcome !!

my iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?
It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.

I restored my ipod touch however the apps will not sync. I tried to re-download but I changed my apple id as my old id is no longer a valid email address. Any ideas out there please?
It might be logical to someone, but not to me. I agree it's a pain.
How did you change your Apple ID? Creating a new one is not what you want to do, but if you changed the ID associated with your purchases then that might have worked. You would need to sign in with the Apple ID on both your iPod Touch as well as in iTunes. I'm not sure how you changed it but clearly they need to match.
If it's just your password that is not getting recognized reset it here: http://iforgot.apple.com/
It will send an email confirmation to the email address associated with that Apple ID. The email address you elect to use might not look anything like your Apple ID. If you don't appear to get an email check your spam filter. -
I have a 120gb Classic that has been working, connecting and syncing flawlessly for years. Now it appears that (maybe since an itunes update) my same Windows 7 x64 computer that has not changed other than the occasional iTunes update will not detect my iPod, and therefore will not sync any more.
The odd thing is that iTunes will sometimes see the iPod (not always), and Windows will also sometime see the iPod. Even when it does, and I click to sync a podcast (or anything else) it appears to go through the #1 and #2 steps and says it is syncing - Do not unplug, then appears to finish, but when you check the ipod after ejecting, nothing has changed. It looks like this has been happening for about a week, but my wife must not have realized that songs and other items were not actually syncing.
I have tried uninstalling iTunes, downloading the 11.2... version available online now, no help. I have tried resetting the ipod, no help. I have tried changing cables, no help. every time I go through the diagnostics in iTunes, it fails the connectivity test and says "No iPod, IPhone, or iPad found.
I am so frustrated. I have tried everything I can think of but even though iTunes shows the iPod, it wont sync....This issue has been resolved - my Support Advisor, Edgar, was able to discern what was causing the problem.
It appears that, despite years of never experiencing this, one of the latest ipod updates actually altered my device's personal settings and changed it to "Manual" for all synchronizing; even performcing Factory Restores did not change it back to being automatic.
My ipod is working as good as ever now thanks to Edgar. If anyone else is having this problem, please make sure you check your device's settings in iTunes and see if "Manual" is checked - even if you never changed the settings yourself and have no reason to suspect that to be the problem, as was the case here. If it is checked - uncheck it to enable automatic syncing.
So relieved this was not a much more serious problem. I've missed having my music on the go. Thanks, Edgar! -
My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?
I had the same thing happen to me. It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library". This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty. Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing. Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices. If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
I spent an hour with an Apple Genius. he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system. His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system. I suspect that this won't solve it.
The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue. -
I had to reset my username and password on my computer because I must have hit a wrong key when changing password. Anyway I made a new admin user on my pc and now my iphone will not sync all the way with my itunes. I flashes a message on the screen saying "you do not have the proper privileges" and stops the sync. All of my contacts are gone and all of my google calander is wiped clean. I just want my Iphone to sync now so that I can add contacts again. What can I do? Thank you for your time.
rfondrickbogdan0,
Tried that but did not work. Thank you for the reply. However, I did find the correct thing to do though so wanted to share.
Since on my computer I had to create a new admin account, I had to go into the shortcut properties of Itunes. Then hit Compatibility Tab. Had to check Run as Admin.
After hitting Change settings for all users it worked just fine. -
My changes to a duplicated page are not syncing up in the Creative Cloud. How can I fix this?
I'm using Adobe Proto on an iPad. I created one page and successfully viewed it in the Creative Cloud. Then I duplicated that 1st page so I could work on the next page in that project. I made some changes to the 2nd page and then synced the project with the Creative Cloud again.
Once I try to view the 2nd page in the Creative Cloud, it's still an exact copy of the 1st page. In other words, my changes on the 2nd page don't show up. I've tried synching the project many times and I get the same result. Tried opening the project from another browser, same result.
My changes to a duplicated page are not syncing up in the Creative Cloud. How can I fix this?
Thank you.Yes, I'm 99% certain the project is being synced. If I duplicate more than the one page so that I end up with more than 2 pages, I still see every single page that I duplicated and made changes as the initial version of the page.
I duplicated that 1st page again so that I have 3 pages. I made changes to the 3rd one and I'm still not seeing those changes when I look at the page in Creative Cloud. I see the new, 3rd page, so that should mean the project is being synced, correct?
