Corrupt or missing tags?

I am having a problem where many of my albums are being stripped of all of their tags except for the song tag. They have them when I rip the cds, but then when I move them to another HD, they seem to get stripped of most of their tags. As an experiment, I just did the folowing:
1) I ripped a cd to itunes 7.0.2. and checked to make sure that all of the tags were successfully applied to each of the songs.
2) I highlighted and deleted all of the songs from the itunes music window.
3) I opened the itunes music folder on my desktop and located the folder containing these songs and dragged and dropped it onto the music folder.
4) All of the music transferred over just fine but the only tag that remains is the song tag. All other tags are gone.
I can't figure this out and I can't locate any examples of other people having this problem. It's driving me a little crazy. Please help!

I found this on another message board and found that it fixed the problem.
The only workaround I've found for this is right after you convert the music to MP3, select it, and choose "Convert ID3 Tags", select ID3 version 2.2, and it fixes the problem. You'll need to do this BEFORE you delete your iTunes library file, as it grabs the track/album/etc info from the library.
I still don't know what caused it and I still don't have a satisfactory method to ensure that it doesn't happen again but I am making some headway.
Here's the rest of the post in case it will help other people who have encountered this problem while trying to achieve the same thing that the author was doing:
Apr. 1, 2006 - John Venzon
I wanted to chime in on what Siva Subramaniam had said about ripping CDs to Lossless and then converting the selection to a lossy format. I do this as well, and have found an annoying and repeatable bug in the way iTunes 6.0.4 (on my Intel Mac) handles the tagging.
I first rip my CDs into Lossless first. I do this because I have a Sonos system at home, and you can really hear the difference between lossless and the other lossy formats. AAC is good, but true 16 bit, 44.1kHz is better. I name the files the way I want and add album artwork to save myself the trouble of doing this twice.
I then switch to MP3 224kbs and use the "Convert Selection to MP3" under the advanced menu. It shows up in the iTunes window just fine, but there is a hidden problem; ID3 tags are not okay. If you delete your iTunes library, and then redrag the newly converted MP3 files to iTunes, all the tag info is gone! Oddly, the album artwork is fine.
Since you wouldn't notice this bug until you recreated your iTunes library, I managed to convert a month's worth of music that I had to fix. If you work this way, I'd recommend you back up your library file, and try this to see if you have the same problem. If you rip straight to MP3, it seems to be fine.
The only workaround I've found for this is right after you convert the music to MP3, select it, and choose "Convert ID3 Tags", select ID3 version 2.2, and it fixes the problem. You'll need to do this BEFORE you delete your iTunes library file, as it grabs the track/album/etc info from the library.
I've reported this problem on the iTunes support board but haven't received any replies from either Apple or other users. I also don't know if this is an Intel iTunes only bug or if it effects PPC as well.
Anyone else want to try this?

  • Satellite P205D-S7802: CD/DVD drive issue; driver corrupted or missing

    Hi,
    Dvd unit has not recognized by the OS.
    When i open My Computer the only unit displayed is C, there's no D unit.
    Then I go to device manager to check it, and I notice that the DVD unit has problems, then i open properties and the error message is:
    "HL-DT-ST DVD RAM GSAT20N ATA DEVICE
    Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing".
    First i thought that was a hardware problem, but I introduced the windows vista disc at boot and the unit read it very well. Then I choose update driver from device manager and the updater told me that the best driver was already installed for the device.
    I tried to replace the .sys and .info files for cd-roms but nothing happened either.
    What is happening, please help, is urgent i need to use my dvd unit.
    Regards.

    Try this:
    remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager list
    access the registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  • Missing tag in SOAP Response object

    Currently running WebLogic 8.1 SP2 (legacy system, unable to upgrade to newer versions).
    Looking at a SOAP Response from a Web Service call, it's notable that there are some missing tags in the response. When the same call is made through an RMI invocation, the data is there, so it appears that it's being set correctly. The obvious answer is that it's an XML serialization problem, but there are no errors in any log files and the Codec classes for a working class and non-working class look identical.
    Let me explain better
    We have essentially:
    Class foo {
    public int getID();
    public void setID(int);
    Class bar1 extends foo {
    //other stuff
    Class bar2 extends foo {
    //other stuff
    The Schema defines the ID field as minOccurs="1" (the default).
    The response coming from the server will look something like this:
    <foo>
    <bar1>
    <ID>TheID</ID>
    ...other stuff...
    </bar1>
    </foo>
    However, if the returned object is of the other type...
    <foo>
    <bar2>
    ...other stuff, but no ID...
    </bar2>
    </foo>
    The classes and service are being generated from a WSDL and XSD files, searching through the value and codec classes shows no fundamental difference between the implementation of the two subclasses, yet one shows the ID, and the other doesn't.
    Anyone have any idea where to look to start narrowing down the problem? This has us completely baffled.

    I guess I'll answer my own question since I've since been able to solve it in the hopes that it will someday help someone else.
    Short answer: There is a bug in WebLogic 8.1 SP2 which generates the isPropertySet(int index) method in the Codecs incorrectly for certain subclasses.
    Using the foo example from the original question
    class foo;
    class bar extends foo;
    class dot extends foo;
    If dot has additional properties, the Codec will be generated incorrectly. They should look like:
    <pre>
    protected boolean isPropertySet(Object my_obj, int idx) {
    if (idx < SUPERPROP_COUNT) return super.isPropertySet(my_obj,idx);
    idx -= SUPERPROP_COUNT;     
    Dot typed_obj = (Dot) my_obj;
    switch(idx) {
    case 0:
    return typed_obj._isSetAdditionalProperty();
    </pre>
    ...etc
    What it actually does look like is...
    <pre>
    protected boolean isPropertySet(Object my_obj, int idx) {
    Dot typed_obj = (Dot) my_obj;
    switch(idx) {
    case 0:
    return typed_obj._isSetAdditionalProperty();
    </pre>
    ...etc
    so attempting to get the eariler properties of the super class from an instance of the sub class returns erratic results depending on whether properties of the subclass were set.
    Anyway, this was fixed in SP3 or 4, and there was a patch available to fix it in SP2 as well. Good luck if anyone else happens to run into this problem.

  • Windows To Go windows/system32/Winload.exe corrupt or missing

    I have a windows to go hard drive and an error came up recently saying "windows/system32/winload.exe corrupt or missing". I made a recovery drive from normal windows 8 but it cant detect the windows to go hard drive (I think its because its only
    looking to internal hard drives). any help would be appreciated. thanks
    EDIT:: it should say winload in the title

    Hi!
    My name is Long.
    I've got the same issue like you and resolved that without repartition and reinstall window to to. 
    I will so you step by step what i did to resolve the error with winload.exe corrupt or missing. I hove that will help you resolve your problem too.
    As you known: Window to go run in a external harddrive with 2 partitions. The first Partition have 350 MB (FAT32, active partition and it contain boot files). The second partition have remaining space (contain window files).
    The first you need a computer have a working window 7 or 8 OS(recommend window 8 or highter)
    Plug your window to go hard drive to the window.
    Assign the first partition 350 MB by disk manager with letter Z: (normally the fist partition 350 MB is not mounted)
    Assign the second (contain windows files) with letter O:
    Delete all file in the partition Z:
    Open CMD and do the command.
           O:\windows\system32\bcdboot O:\windows /f ALL /s Z:
    Restart and boot to window to go.
    If you want to know why i did that, read below:
    (External Hard Drive = EHD)
    i found a lot of the suggests in the internet and did that.
    - I had try to replace the winload.exe file in the second partition but it not effect.
    - I replace the registry data in folder \windows\system32\config but it not effect.
    - I did some commands found in the internet but not effect too. (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/1b2045b9-7fef-47f0-aea3-1e185fb7544c/fix-winloadexe-is-missing-or-corrupt-no-its-not)
    - System repair not work with EHD.
    After i did all the ways found in the internet, i think that, the problem is not due to winload.exe file.
    I read the tips to install window togo again and i try to reinstall the window to go without repartition.
    The install have 2 steps: 
    - 1: Partition and set active.
    - 2: Copy file and make boot
    I ignor the first step because my EHD have got 2 partitons like the tips. 
    I delete all file and folder relate to window except my pertional data (in the 2nd partition).
    I extract install.wim file and copy all to the 2nd partition. I restart and boot to EHD but it still got error.
    I'm used Bootice and check the MBR of EHD and i got unknown MBR. I think the the problem.
    So I used Bootice software, set MBR of EHD = Windows NT 6.x. and I
    Set PBR to 2 partitions are BOOTMGR boot record (FAT32/NTFS/ExFAT).  I restart and boot to EHD but it still got error.
    Next, I delete all file in 1st partition of EHD.
    I Open CMD and do the command 
    "o:\windows\system32\bcdboot o:\windows /f ALL /s z:"
    after that, i restart and boot to EHD and it worked. The window to go work perfect but i lost all settings :)
    So i think the 2nd partition and all files is ok. The problem is by the 1st partition.

  • Windows 2012 Domain Controller: Failed to open the runspace pool. The Server Manager WinRM plug-in might be corrupted or missing

    Hi all,
    We have been battling a problem for the last couple of days when we try to add the first windows server 2012 DC to an already existing Domain.
    The Server installation goes smoothly and we can add the computer to the domain and its all green.
    After we promote the server to a domain controller the WinRM service starts acting up (not responding anymore).
    The server manager console shows Remote Management as disabled, and when we try to enable it via the console or Powershell it freezes up.
    The AD DS part of the console is saying that there are post-promotion tasks that need to be completed but once we click on the task it takes us to the promotion wizard again, that basically complains that: Failed to open the runspace pool. The Server Manager
    WinRM plug-in might be corrupted or missing.
    In the Remote Management Event log we see the following entry: "The client got a timeout from the network layer (ERROR_WINHTTP_TIMEOUT)" Event ID 138
    We are unable to do anything with the server (demote, add roles, remotely manage...). We tryed the following already:
    1. Recreate from scratch
    2. Checking the GPOs to see if there is anything setup about RM -> came up with nothing
    We just ran out of ideas so HELP PLEASE !

  • Missing tags on DVD back up PSE 5

    Hi I have built a new PC and I'm moving all my pics from the old PC to the new PC using backup DVD's which I created in PSE 5. When I load the photo's only about 10% of the pictures have their tags attached. With 5000 photos per DVD (5 in all) I don't fancy retagging 15,000+ pics. Can anyone help with finding the missing tags?
    Cheers Gary

    Gary,
    I think the answer may come from how you created these "backup DVDs".
    Having tags on only a percentage of the photos often indicates that you backed up and moved the photo files to the new PC: however you did nothing which transferred the PS Elements Organizer Catalog from the old PC to the new PC.
    Adobe has a TechNote document describing a method for moving both the photo files and the Catalog to a new PC when using PSE version 5 at
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=333522
    However, you have already moved the photo files. So it may be worthwhile to try to copy your catalog from the old PC to the new PC.
    What is the Windows version on the old PC and on the new PC?
    What is the Windows Userid on the old PC and the new PC?
    Are your photo files under the My documents\My Pictures folder structure or are they somewhere else? If elsewhere, describe their location on the old system and on the new system?

  • Error Cab1 file is corrupt or missing in Reader 8.1

    I've tried installing Reader 8.1 on two different machines and keep getting the same error message about the Cab1 file being corrupt or missing.
    Its not missing but it is most definitely corrupted. Ive DL'd the darn thing 5 different times, all with the same results. It worked a few weeks ago on a very old Compaq (300MHz PII, 176MB RAM, Windows 2000 SP4). Now this week it wont install on a Gateway (900MHz AMD Athlon, 512 MB RAM, WinXP Pro SP2) or a Dell (1.5 GHz P4, 1GB RAM, WinXP Pro SP2). Doesn't make any sense to me.

    Ok. I located the folder in the folders panel and found it was in red, not white. I clicked on it and went to library but the synchronize option was grayed out so I'm kind of stuck at this point. Thanks for your help.

  • No sound on Equium - corrupt or missing driver (Code 39)

    Hi
    My name is Samee.
    I have recently wanted to play music on my computer using windows media player but no sound comes from the speakers of the laptop, I have checked device manager and there is a minus sign next to sound, video and game recorders when I scroll down the is a yellow circle with an exclamation mark next to the device "Microsoft kernel wave audio mixer". When trying to play the music track my windows media player 11 it says
    "Windows media player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed or it might be in use by another program, or it might no be functioning properly''.
    When I try to uninstall the device and then scan for new installed hardware it gives me an error message
    "Windows cannot load this device driver for this device the driver may be corrupt or missing. (Code 39)''
    Is there any way I can make my speakers function again if so how?
    Thanks Sam

    i have first uninstalled any sound driver installed in the computer and then reinstalled the drives via the software CD provided by the computer manufacturer. after doing this it did not seem to resolve the problem, therefore i then had to lake a last resort and reformat the HDD. but after doing this i the sound drive was working correctly but i ran into another problem when installing windows xp service pack 2. It failed to install no error code came up.
    can anybody tell me how to get out this mess.

  • Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is corrupted or missing

    During recovery from recovery partition I get message:

    Setup cannot continue. Press any key to exit.
    Now I have a computer with a recovery partition and that's about it.

    The computer is an nc6220 and the OS, if the recovery would work, is winXP pro.
    Anyone have any ideas ?

    I assume you ran recovery from the hard drive?
    If so,
    I would run a chkdsk on the recovery partition it may fix the sif file corruption.
    You can do this from a XP boot cd using the command prompt, you just need to run it on the recovery partition instead of the C drive as explained in this article.

  • Handling missing tag

    Hi Guys,
    I have a requirement in which I need to show the negative amount in () and red font for FACT1.
    Now a few of the records have null values for FACT1. So the XML tags are missing for those records.
    I have defined the fact column as a number with format as - #,###0,(#,###0)
    and I have created conditional format which says - Less than 0...font Red.
    But when i try to preview the report, I get parsing error. i guess it is because of the missing tags (I may be wrong here).
    Can anyone please help me in handling this?
    Thanks!!

    In your case: you could do something like this:
    <?if:FACT1 and FACT1< 0?>code to make font red <?end if?>
    Use this as a guidance:
    • To define behavior when the element is present and the value is not null, use the
    following:
    <?if:element_name!=?>desired behavior <?end if?>
    • To define behavior when the element is present, but is null, use the following:
    <?if:element_name and element_name="?>desired behavior <?end
    if?>
    • To define behavior when the element is not present, use the following:
    <?if:not(element_name)?>desired behavior <?end if?>

  • Tell us what are the BC missing tags!

    Hello BC developers,
    As we're doing work on BC, especially in the rendering engine (you'll hear more about it when it's ready), we would like to also add in BC most of the missing tags that you need, including new fields in various tables (considering that those are relatively simple to implement).
    We need you to tell us what's missing. Please be active and help us understand those things fast to make sure we can add them to the backlog.
    We've enabled Disqus comments on the Developer Documentation site - as you can see below.Browse the Tag Reference to find layouts and their current tags. (username: alpha, password: bcdevdocs)
    http://developers.businesscatalyst.com/reference/tag-reference/news/ne ws-detail-layout.html
    We need three type of comments:
    If tags exists today in BC that are not documented or incorrectly documented, feel free to tell us in a comment (we'll fix the documentation)
    If fields exist today in the database but not in the module layout (e.g. you can edit it from AdminConsole, or is available in the detail view but not in the list view), tell us (we'll include it in the layout if it's not extremely complicated)
    If a field or two could be added to a module and make your life way easier (both in the AdminConsole and in the tag) - let us know this, too.
    Please visit the site, and tell us, in the comments, for as many layouts as possible, what tags are missing and we'll do our best to integrate them in the new BC engine. It would help also to describe the use case to make sure we understand why the tag is needed and are able to prioritize.
    Sincerely,
    Alexandru

    Hi Alexandru,
    I'll start things off...
