Does itunes have a free music video of the week every week, or just once in awhile?  If not, why do they call it "Free Music Video of the Week"?!

LOL, but really would like to know...

I guess then this is a serious shortcoming of iTunes... Up till this point I owned an RCA Lyra MP3 player and it had no problems whatsoever doing these things. I guess, after seeing how iTunes and iPod works, I'd rather return to Lyra if it had an 80 G version. The only thing that still keeps me with iPod is the capacity.
It seems like that iTunes is a very cumbersome program and it tries to be so much user friendly that it even tries to eliminate the human element. Sometimes, it makes sense to keep files organized in specific manner. Especially when there is work involved and productivity.
I guess I will just delete everything from the play list and read in the main folder every once in a while, leaving the machine working on it during the night or something, then another night, it will refresh my iPod. That's the only solution I see right now.
It is interesting that a huge program like iTunes cannot do what a small one like Lyra can. And I even read in user groups that some people created programs for this problem, but those programs don't work with iTunes 7 well yet, so I am stuck with the manual updating or the brutal deletion and re-reading.
Thank you for the answer. At least I know what not to expect from the program. I just use it for only one purpose: load music onto iPod, then forget about it. It quite an unuseful program for me otherwise.

  • HT4335 Does Itunes have a solution for playing music in a business setting?

    Does Itunes have a solutions for playing music in a business setting?  Can you play your downloaded music in a business-overhead speakers?

    Presuming you are referring to the iTunes Store, tracks purchased from that service are for personal use only and are not licensed for use in any commercial setting. You will need to either find a commercial service to provide music (easiest by far, though perhaps not the cheapest), or buy the appropriate CDs and then obtain a license from the various rights clearinghouses for playback in commercial use.

  • Does iTunes have any hidden picture controls for video playback (e.g. contrast, brightness) ?

    Does iTunes have any hidden picture controls for video playback (e.g. contrast, brightness) ?
    I haven’t been able to find any.
    Since the .m4v file type appears to prevent any video bought or rented from the iTunes Store from being played using any other program the lack of these picture controls - if indeed they are lacking - make it seriously deficient as a video player.

    Thanks for the rapid response to my enquiry.
    I know that it’s possible to adjust the monitor’s performance via System Preferences but it is rather long-winded and I’d rather not alter the settings for the entire screen (and then have to change them all back once finished) when it’s only the video playback window that needs adjustment.
    Since iTunes provides various options using the Equalizer for adjusting sound playback it seems rather odd that they don’t have a similar panel for video.
    Regarding QuickTime.
    Apparently earlier versions (such as 7) had picture controls but the current version (10.4) does not.
    I assume Apple are phasing out QT whose development seems to have stopped - or rather gone backwards since it now lacks capabilities it once had - and intend in future to treat iTunes as their universal media player which no doubt makes sense from their point of view.
    I wasn’t aware of the .m4v file type when I made my first and probably last video purchase via iTunes yesterday and didn’t realise that it would restrict my options for playback so completely.
    The experience has really put me off buying any additional video from the iTunes Store.
    Back to DVDs.

  • Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.

    Why does iTunes freeze up for minutes at a time when modifying INFO (CMD-i) ?  My files are not corrupted after it is done like many other threads i have readed.  Sometimes it's changing the title of a movie or editing the season and episode number of a TV show ect.....

    Yup same here
    I am running the latest iTunes, the latest updates to the OS and on an iMac 3.4GHz Quad core i7 with 8GB of RAM and the music stored on local HDD.
    Still locks up iTunes for between 2 minutes up to 20 minutes.
    Really annoying.
    If you find a fix please, please let me know, I have just been throwing hardware at it with no joy at all

  • Does iTunes have on demand streaming?

    Does iTunes have music streaming on demand?

    Thank you. I think with Spotify, for $25 per year, one can select and listen to any one particular song at any time.  That's what I meant by on-demand streaming.  Does iTunes have anything like that?

  • I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

    I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

    You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

    I've seen a couple of other threads over the last 10 minutes posting similar problems, so it appears to have affected other people as well - the poster on the first thread has now posted again saying that it's now working for him, so you could give it another try.

  • Does iTunes have to be installed to use the shuffle in disk mode?

    I have read through the string titled 'Ipod only recognized as "unknown device" '.
    I have the same problem, however I ran into an issue where iTunes would not start so I uninstalled the program.
    I was wondering, does iTunes have to be installed or running for the shuffle to operate in disk mode ot should the shuffle act as a normal jump drive regardless?

    Also, I found this Apple article that relates http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303553. This is true for all Intel Macs, not just the Macbook Pro. It also confirms my earlier position, but is vague as to how much faster it is. Ideally, we'd all have 2 Gigs with paired 1 Gig modules.
    A quick google search will reveal that the boost is fairly small, but noticable in situations where performance is limited by memory bandwidth. Keep in mind having less memory reduces performance signifcantly, if you run out of memory and more pageouts / virtual memory usage is required. Virtual Memory is orders of magnitude slower than regular memory, think Nanoseconds vs. Milliseconds.
    So 1.25 Gigs might be better than 1 Gig for that reason, regardless of if its single-channel or dual-channel. It all depends on how you use computer, but like I said above, I'd just go for what's cheaper in this case.

  • Does iTunes have or is there an app to see beats while a song is playing?

    Does iTunes have or is there an app to see beats while a song is playing?

    Thank you, but both of those would be a financial overkill as well I believe (for an occasional once a year need).
    I actually designed another flyer with a curved headline about 2 years ago, but saved it simply in a .jpg format (because it was emailed) and cannot remember how I actually did it! It opens now in Preview (default) and get info doesn't tell me which app was used to create it. I've already tried each and every app I have and it's driving me bananas.

  • Songs in music library downloaded from a CD and synced to my old IPOD are not recognized by my new IPOD classic.  What is the fix?

    Songs in music library downloaded from a CD and synced to my old IPOD are not recognized by my new IPOD classic.  What is the fix?

    If you are using automatic syncing with your old iPod, select that iPod in iTunes and go to its Music tab (next to Summary).  Note how this Music tab is set up.  Maybe you can do a screen shot.
    Now, select the new iPod in iTunes.  Go to its Music tab, like you did for the old iPod.  Set up the new iPod's Music tab exactly like the old iPod, and Apply the change. 
    The music on your new iPod should now match the old iPod.

    Hi there, im also having this problem, i tried running most of the games on my system, and some that are considered "high end" games, are giving me the exact same problem, but other games are running and im able to message fine, i also got some friends to send me messages, and i can recieve messages perfectly, also i noticed moving the actual window around on the screen or just closing down skype also lags. I have 16GB of ram and 4.4Ghz Octa-Core CPU, i checked my load while on the high end games and it there was more than enough hardware usage left like normal for skype to run, and skype wasnt taking any extra up than before. I also checked by bandwidth and i was having no problems with that as skype would lag even on offline games. 
    I have tried re-installing under a different directory and still the same problem persists, this has only been a problem within the last 24hrs and i haven't installed any other programs that could affect this at the moment.
    *UPDATE* I tried downgrading to an older version of skype, 6.3.0.107. Problem Still persists
