Changes within iTunes to a track's name are not sticking

I've been making changes to the name field for a lot of my tracks. Specifically, I wanted to make a simple change from using parentheses to using brackets (e.g, from "Release Me (Cahill Mix)" to "Release Me [Cahill Mix]"). When I initially click OK to save such a change, the name is changed correctly; but more often than not, I'm finding that the names a reverting back to using parentheses. Any ideas?

Same problem here, and it doesn't seem to be limited to music only. When I try to change the name of some TV Episodes I have in my iTunes library, the change seems to be implemented correct but then 5 minutes or so later, the originasl name re-appears.

My iTunes account is under my @yahoo email address and I became accustomed to my @Me email and now like the idea of the @iCloud email address that was made. My questions are....can I change my iTunes account to my @iCloud name without instead of my @yahoo name without losing my years snd years of purchases ? Can I also create an @Mac address ? ....or is my @yahoo and my @iCloud already recognized as the same by apple and my purchases would already be fine as well as restoring my devices ?

Your purchases are permanently tied to the Apple ID (account) used to purchase them. They can't be moved to another account and you can merge accounts. You can start making new purchases with your iCloud ID if you want, but you will end up with two sets of purchases under two different IDs, adding further complication to your life.
Also, your @icloud email address is an alias of your existing @me address; emails sent to either address will be routed to the same inbox. You can decide which one you want to use as your default (as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5441) but you can't separate them.

New JCo names are not listing in WB Content Administrator

Dear Friends,
I have deployed my WebDynpro application on a landscape where the production system got 4 server services running.
Initially the WD application was using the existing JCo connections. But on the latest deploy I have to use new JCo connections and I made changes.
Problem is, these new JCo connection names are not appearing in WebDynpro Content Administrator and still it displays old JCo connections.
This problem exists with global WD Content Admin. URL as well as with individual server url, except in one server instance where JCos yet to be created.
But when I execute the application with global URL, it is working fine.
Intent is to create and use my new JCo connections for the application which are not listing in WB Content Admin.
Is it require to restart the server services?
Is it possible to solve this problem without restarting the services?
Is there any other way to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Lakshmikantha

Sorry I can't approach to restart the j2ee service at this movement.
And the application got new JCo name at it's JCO refrences.
Infact the application is working fine with new JCos on development and quality systems.
Problem exists only on production system where it got 4 server instances.
Any hope without restarting services?

There's something else going on. When you search, the search box searches the Spotlight database that it created when indexing. It doesn't search the computer again. I suspect a hosed index. System Preferences->Spotlight->Privacy->delete all volumes and readd them back in. That should reindex the computer and all attached HDs. BTW, by default there are many places Spotlight doesn't return information from, mainly the various Library folders and the System folder. If you want to find everything, do this:
Click on the Desktop, CMD+F, click on Kind button, select Other, drill down to File invisible, check it, continue down to System files, check it, and click OK. Now, click on + button, click on the left-hand item and select System files and select are included, click on the plus button, click on the left-hand item and select File visibility and select visible or invisible, select File Name, save the search, drag its icon to the Dock, and use to search your entire Mac—currently starts with By Name, but Contents is available. I use this instead of CMD+F or CMD+spacebar for all searches.

Some of my contact names are not appearing when they text message me. They are just showing up as their numbers. I have them saved in my phone so i am not really sure why their names aren't showing up when they message me?

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Some of the Artist names are not showing up in iTunes or my iPod

I have a couple of songs by Yanni on iTunes and my iPod Video (5th Generation). The songs are listed and so are the albums, but the artist name is not. I tried retyping the artist's name but that didn't work.

File names are not being created correctly!!

Problem I have, and it seems to be an issue with iTunes in Windows and not Mac or in Windows Media Player for that matter.
Anyway, the problem is that the files are not being written as they are displayed in the Album Data in iTunes itself. It just appears as though iTunes will create any length of file name it wants and not the one that you create??
The reason I have an issue with this, is because I am trying to create one large album directory on an external Hard Drive connected to my Router so that any machine I have on the network can access it from there as opposed to creating a directory on every single machine.
I have a tone of discs that I am loading up and just felt that having one large directory on a networked drive would be the best route to take.
The machines I will be using to access the files using iTunes is my Mac Mini and my Windows PC depending on what room I am in, and then probably a few other devices scattered around the house to make up a Media network.
Anyway, the issue is with the file names.
It just seems that Windows iTunes wants to create whatever file name size it pleases, where as Mac iTunes and Windows Media Player seem to create the files as listed in the Track List and Album File Data.
It would seem that Windows iTunes has a serious bug in it's File Structure Handling which is a pain in the proverbial.
Just to test this out, I created the same Album both in Windows and Mac and the Mac version had the full file name structure but the PC one doesn't, however, Windows Media Player created it exactly the same as Mac iTunes.
It definitely appears as though there is an issue with iTunes in Windows, because it creates other albums without a problem. It just seems to pick and choose as it pleases.
Anyone else get this or know if there is a way to fix it??

I'm not sure what you mean. Perhaps if you gave a specific example?
I put my CD's into iTunes so that they go in Album Format with the albums in seperate folders and the song names as they are retrieved from the internet, so that they are not songs all in one long Directory Listing. (Unless of course there is another way of using iTunes??)
When using iTunes on Mac or the Windows Media Player, all the songs are loaded onto the computer as they are written in the descriptions downloaded from the web.
Example in Directory format:
Artist Album Song Name
Queen - Innuendo - 08 These Are The Days Of Our Lives
This works fine in Mac iTunes or Windows Media Player. However, if I'm using iTunes in Windows, it may give me the following,
Artist Album Song Name
Queen - Innuendo - 08 These Are The Days O
Now, that is just an example and not a song that is affected, but it gives you an idea of what happens. It appears to happen on any Album and File Name combinations, and only appears to happen when using iTunes in Windows. The much longer filename and album names seem to be far more affected and I think this is to do with Windows Naming structure, but it doesn't explain why it's not happening in Windows Media Player??
The problem with this, is that when trying to use the same File Directory stored on my external Networked HDD for both Apple and Windows iTunes, the Windows version is causing havoc by doing what it wants where as the Apple iTunes seems to work as intended.
So when it comes to using either to rip a new CD to the library, I have to start using the Mac Mini each time because it seems to not be causing any issues when ripping discs.
I'm still in the process of sorting out my Album Directory and having to load everything up on the iMac so that everything gets loaded properly, but this seems to be a really bad bug in iTunes.
The reason I want to use this external NAS HDD is to keep my data in one area as opposed to having two large directories for both machine formats.
I hope that is a little more clear on what is happening.
P.S. Just to add to this. I prefer to use the PC for CD Ripping because the CD Drive is much faster than my Mac Mini and doesn't get anywhere near as hot when used constantly. I can rip 20 albums or more on my PC in the time it takes to sometimes rip just 5 to 10 on my Mac Mini, which is why I wanted this to work properly on the Windows version of iTunes.

Duplicate Tracks Listed That Are NOT Really Duplicates!

My iTunes library suddenly has many duplicate tracks listed for SOME (not all) CD's I imported into iTunes, and I'm not sure why! The CD's that have duplicate tracks listed are split into individual songs. In other words, all the tracks are not listed together with one picture of the album art, but are split into individual tracks, with a duplicate picture of the album art showing for each track (as if each track was an individual CD)! When there are CD's with duplicates showing, there is always two track #1's, two track #2's, two track #3's, etc. If I click on the FIRST track #1 listed, I get the error message that iTunes cannot locate the file, and it asks me if I'd like to locate it. The non-functioning track is ALWAYS the first one listed (in other words, the first track #1 listed, the first track #2 listed, etc). This happened after I moved my iTunes library over to my external hard-drive, and I think it may have something to do with the fact that there may be some extra folders/files in my iTunes folder on my external hard-drive that don't belong there! The folder where I have iTunes save my music to is "G:\iTunes\iTunes Music", and inside my "G:\iTunes" folder are the following folders/files:
Album Artwork (folder)
iTunes Music (folder)
iTunes Library.itl (file)
iTunes Library.xml (file)
iTunes Library Extras.itdb (file)
iTunes Library Genius.itdb (file)
iTunes Music Library.xml (file)
Sentinel (file - no extension)
Is this correct? Does anybody know if I have an extra library file that's "confusing" iTunes? I am going through my library and manually deleting all the duplicates, but I have over 11,000 songs in my library (all recorded off of my over 1,000 CD collection!) and this is, as you can imagine, rather time-consuming!
Any help/suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thank you!
Dennis

I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this thread for background.

I am using the big date calendar template and when I submit it to apple for printing I lose the name of two months. These names are not text boxes. I see the names when I send it in but something happens during the transmission to apple. It was suggested

I am using the big date calendar template in iPhoto. I am on Lion 10.7.2, macbook air. The names of the months are on each calendar page but something happens when I send the data to Apple. The names are part of the template. They are not text boxes. I lose two names on the calendar after it is sent to Apple. Apple suggested I make a pdf file of my calendar before sending it in and check to make sure every name shows. I did this with a calendar I just sent in. The calendar was correct. All names of the months were showing. After sending the data two month names disappeard because when it arrived by mail, it was incorrect. Apple looked at my calendar via a pdf file and it was incorrect. This is second time this has happened. I called Apple and they had me delete several folders in the Library folder, some preferences and do a complete reinstall of iPhoto. I have not yet remade the defective calendar. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
kathy

Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar. If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them. Contact Apple for a refund. Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

Tap the Videos app and tap the movies button at the top of the page.
The iTunes app on your iPad is just a conduit to the iTunes Store. To play your purchases, use the iPod app or the Videos app.

Some of the apps are not showing in the launchpad only the names are not the icon

So what version of Premiere Pro are we talking about here?
Describe what "cant select" and "cant increase" means.
We cant see what you are doing or with what or where!
These arent things that get "broken".
