Error when adding some albums to iTunes library

I get the following error message in iTunes:
"iTunes could not save to your Music Folder because you do not have write access. Check the permissions on your music folder and folders in your music folder, then try copying this file again"
Background:
- My Music Folder is on an external hard drive.
- The problem appeared after I conducted a fresh install of Mac OS X 10.5
The Problem:
- does always occur when trying to import a new album of an artist that existed before.
- sometimes occurs when trying to import a new album / artist.
Steps taken:
- updated read/write rights in the music folder, all folders above it.
- used the "apply to enclosed items" when updating read/ write rights for my music folder, but it didn't update those rights in the enclosed folders.
- tried renaming the library
- wanted to fix permissions but this option is grey in Disk Utility, even when I run it from the installation CD.
- repaired the disk in disk utility (many errors were found and it took ages)
Steps not taken:
- didn't update read/write right in all the folders within my music folder. (performing such a manual update on plus 350 folders shouldn't be considered a solution, there must be some other way)
Question: How to fix this problem? I understand that there is a problem with my old admin (from the previous install) being in charge of my external HDD. I can't remove that admin (it's listed as "unknown").
Thanks in advance for help. I see that I am not alone with this issue.

Select your external drive in finder.
press CMD and i
an info windows will open - what is reported as "Format" ?
anyway scroll down to the very bottom: "Sharing & Permissions"
set everyone's privilege to "Read & Write" and choose to "Apply to all enclosed items"

Error when attempting to play shared iTunes library

I have two iTunes Shared libraries on my network, coming from seperate machines. I am using a Mac Mini as a media server.
Both of my shared libraries show up on the list. When I attempt to view one of the libraries I get the following error message...
"iTunes is not responding. Press the Play/Pause button to return to the desktop"
Please note that one of the libraries (the much larger one) plays fine via the share.
Any ideas?

Do the shared libraries have passwords? If they do, then try leaving iTunes open when you go to Front Row with the library you want to use selected with password entered as if you were going to listen to it directly from iTunes.

Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet thos albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop but none of the others. What's happening?

Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet ONLY those albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop after being dragged there but none of the others. What's happening?
I've read some of the post here that I thought might help but they refer to titles (Music) and triangles in the "Devices" window which are nowhere to be seen when I open the "Devices" window.
I have iTunes 11.0.3 and Mac OS 10.6.8. Does this make a difference?

I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

Library error when adding contact or when logging in

The messenger server has a replica of the partition holding the users.
It's an OES 2 sp2 server, and the GW Messenger is 2.04.
Sometimes we see an error that says 'Library error' when adding a contact, or it doesn't show all users that exists with the search parameter given.
We also sporadically see a 'Library error' when some users log in to it.
Looking in the log I see an error that says 0xAE16 when users log in fails.
I can find the 0xAE11 error in the TID's but not the 0xAE16, I did find an article on the forums, mentioning this problem http://forums.novell.com/novell-prod...or-server.html, they mention memory problems, so it seems to me there is a bug that needs fixing.

I've disabled the '/diruseralias-"Internet EMail Address"' setting that was set up in the strtup.ma and strtup.aa scripts.
I've also, for now at least, chosen another replica.
I haven't seen the errors yet, so here's hoping...

Yes you can drag and drop music to the iPiod if you select Manually Manage Music and Videos in iTunes.

You do not drag the music to put it on the iPod, you click into the iPod tab and sync it with your library.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old computer?

How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old Hewitt packard computer?
Thought by connecting my phone to computer it would automatically duplicate. Only seems to work with a small amount of music which I downloaded through my mac
Im no expert with computers so need some step by step advice
I have over 1000 songs on my iphone and want to back it up on my mac itunes
Want to upgrade my iphone and dont want to loose my music and ideally want to import it onto my new iphone
Need help?

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

What does it mean when you get a "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. There is not enought memory available." ? And what can I do to correct it?

Well, I installed the latest iTunes this AM, works perfectly. Although for some reason it did lock up after playing a song today.
Horror stories? That's a bit overly dramatic.
No, it isn't.
The issue you are experiencing is one that has occurred in multiple versions of iTunes, a simple search would have revealed this.
A simple search was conducted, no one seemed to have an answer. Do you always adopt such a haughty attitude? Or was I just lucky.

On my home computer, when I transfer from my iTunes library to iTunes store, I'm presented with an empty window. Tool bar at the top of the page is in view and all it's 'drop-downs' function. Any ideas?

That's definitely enough to start.
It sure seems like it should work...and then I saw that you're using a router. It could very well be that the router is the weak link here.
Instead connecting to your network router, try using a direct USB connection from your MBP. If that doesn't work, you read this post, which may be relevant to your problem:

Error when adding Essbase server...

Hi,
I installed Hyperion System 9.3.1 in my development machine and encounter the following error when adding a Essbase server in AAS for the first time.
Error: 1042017: Network error: The client or server timed out waiting to receive data using TCP/IP. Check network connections. Increase the NetRetryCount and/or NetDelay values in the ESSBASE.CFG file. Update this file on both client and server. Restart the client and try again.
I used the default user "admin" and password "password". I used my servername:10080 as the server name. I hope I am right.
Why is this happening? I tried changing netdelay settings but still get the same. Is this something else? Does this have anything to do with my TCP/IP settings? I am installing this on a virtual PC.
I couldn't find an answer in previous posts.
regards
h

The things that come to mind:
The server name you use should be the name of the virtual PC, not the machine it's running on. Also, depending on the settings for the Virtual PC environment, you may have to change the network options to allow it to be visible to the network, be in the right domain, etc...
The above may or may not get you any closer, the error message itself is just saying it can't receive a response from the server, which means the server never got the request or can't send a response back.
Good Luck,
