"Genre" selection broken in iTunes 9.2?

In iTunes 9.2, the "Genre" pop-up on the "Info" page of the "Item Information" dialog appears to have broken. Clicking the drop-down arrow displays the list of genres, but selecting any item from the list leaves the field blank. Typing in a genre does work. It's broken on both the single item and multiple item information dialogs.
Is anyone else seeing the same? I'm running iTunes 9.2 on XP Media Center Edition, if that makes any difference. It worked fine in previous versions of iTunes.

One of the other frequent contributors to the forum has suggested that we should all send our own feedback, see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2466004 which, upon reflection, I think is probably a good idea. There's a link to the feedback in the other thread.

  • Is there a way to view a Genre Column in the iTunes Store?

         I have some file (That I did not download from iTunes). And their names were all messed up. But I was able to fix them by using the iTunes store and finding names, artist's, and etc. But when it came to Genres I could not find the Genre Column in the iTunes STORE. If you know a way to add a genre column in the iTunes store please tell me! Thank you!

    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • I use a lot of custom genres for sorting.  iTunes has recently been changing the genres of 200  songs back to their default every time I update.  How can I lock in my custom genres?

    How do I lock in custom genres so iTunes doesn't change them?

    The most likely cause is that affected songs are iTunes Store purchases (or are being matched to the Store).  To prevent the Store metadata over-riding yours, set the following options to OFF in Edit > Preferences > Store:
    Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases
    Share details of your library with Apple
    Exit iTunes, when you start it again you should see your metadata selections and these should now be stable.  Also, if you have any iOS devices select Settings > Music and turn the Show All Music option OFF.  This should maintain your genre selections as well as any other changes you make to Artist, Album Artist, Album settings, etc.

  • Korean songs got cracked or broken on iTunes! How can I fix this? Can apple just offer a universal language applied to iTunes?

    Korean songs got cracked or broken on iTunes! How can I fix this? Can apple just offer a universal language applied to iTunes?
    English songs have right names but some Korean songs names got cracked .
    I set English as the first language on my Mac and don't want to set up language in English.
    Thanks.

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • HT1399 Can I manually select songs from iTunes? If so, how?

    Can I manually select songs from Itunes? If so, how?

    I have the iPhone 5. When I plug my phone into iTunes to select different songs, as my libraray is too large to keep it all on my phone. The only choices that iTunes gives you now is Artists, Genres, etc. I don't see the ability to just select song for song, like the older version of iTunes. Which in my opinion, was way more user friendly.

  • "Covert High Bitrate to AAC 128K...." for iPod Shuffle Broken in iTunes 7

    I store all my music in Apple lossless for home listening, then use the covert to AAC 128K when laoding my shuffle...great feature, the reason I went the iTunes/shuffle route. This worked good, although a little slow in 6. It is now broken in iTunes 7, it takes an hour per song - not usable. Any ideas on this?

    It seems to me that you've ended up somewhere between AIFF and AAC. Because WMP supports buttloads of formats, it will play the files, the iPod is much more finicky.
    There are two settings on the importing tab preferences pane: one that chooses the file format, the other at what bit rate. Simply select AAC and 128 or higher and reimport music from CD's. I would recommend deleting the AIFF versions BEFORE you reimport however, so you or iTunes don't get confused as to which one is which since the titles will all appear exactly alike.
    Good Luck.

  • Just downloaded ios 7.0.4 for my iphone4 and backed up before doing so. Now that it's been updated and restored I keep being asked to setup my iphone. When I select restore from itunes I keep getting stuck on setup iPhone. Cant get back in phone!

    I backed up the phone and updated to ios 7.0.4 which took about 2 hours.  Now the phone powers on and says hello in different lagnuages and says to slide to setup.  I am asked to choose a network and then if I want to setup as a new iphone, restore from icloud or restore from itunes backup.  When I select restore from itunes the screen says "connected to itunes".  In itunes I select restore from backup however after a few seconds itunes says that it cannot restore beause there is not enough free space on the iphone.  During this attempt to restore I see the home screen and my screen saver and everything for a split second, then the phone powers off.
    I see in itunes that all of my photos and data are still on the phone however I cannot get into the iphone.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • Is it possible to do a selective restore from itunes?

    I had a wifi  issue on my iphone 4 issue after updating to IOS 6.0.1 - the wifi would no longer auto connect would not maintain a connection to any wifi broadcast. It seemd OK when no data was moving through it but dropped and reverted to 3G as soon as I would attempt any data transfer. Seems like a VERY common problem that also seems to have gone on unaddressed for quite some time. I tried every trick listed on numerous threads, and nothing worked. Finally took it into the local retailer, and they backed up my data, did a reset, then moved my data back. After losing my contacts, I also found that their reset did not fix this.
    After rebuilding all my apps and contacts, I gave itunes a try. Saved a backup there, then did a reset via itunes, and voila - my wifi worked again. Tested for two days and had no issues, issue appeared to be resolved. Finally got comfortable enough to let itunes recover from the backup file, and as soon as I did the wifi started dropping its connection again just like before.
    I have now reset the phone again, and manually rebuilt all my contacts and apps, and now have a working backup via the icloud.
    Only problem is this, all my images and videos that were part of the itunes backup are still there, but doing a backup via itunes is going to bring my wifi issue back.
    Does anyone know of a way to do a selective restore via itunes, where I can select images an videos only? If there is an option there, I sure can't find it. Any suggestons would be appreciated.

    I do have a lot of direct experience with this problem. It's not going to work because the backup only has photos, videos, contacts, etc. but the iPhone also has to fit the OS, apps, music, etc. which won't show on the backup.
    There are some third-party apps out there that will let you extract shtuff out of the backup but I don't have direct experience with those, use at your own risk.
    If you had iCloud, you can get back all your contacts, etc. without doing a restore.

  • How to view ALL selected tracks in iTunes

    Simple question, I hope, but I've got more tracks on my iTunes than I can fit into my iPhone and I would like to be able to see how much memory my selected tracks take up, in total, not just by artist, before I try to sync.
    Is there anyway of viewing all selected tracks in iTunes?

    Create a new playlist using the command File > New Playlist. Drag the selected tracks into it. Open the playlist and look at the bottom to see the number of tracks, total size, and playing time.

  • An OLD INACTIVE email address, asking for a password, continues to show up to play certain selections in my iTunes Music Library.  I want to REMOVE this old email, HOW DO I REMOVE IT!!  All attempts to remove it have failed!

    An OLD INACTIVE email address, asking for a password, continues to show up to play certain selections in my iTunes Music Library.  I want to REMOVE this old email address, HOW DO I REMOVE IT!!  All attempts to remove it have failed!

    Yes, if you change your Apple ID to your new email address. You don't have to. Under those sort of situations you can speak to Apple about transferring your purchased items to the new Apple ID, and see if they will help you.
    You don't lose access to your older purchased items, you simply cannot update or re-download them or, in some cases, use them without providing the old Apple ID and password. All purchased items are permanently tied to the Apple ID used at time of purchase.

  • Ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes.

    ipod touch (5th generation) won't sync all selected music in itunes version 12.0.1.  Under the summary tab, I've selected "Sync only checked songs and videos."  In the music tab, I've selected the various albums and artists I want.  I click on "sync," and some albums sync, others do not.  Often, only some tracks of the selected albums sync.  Additionally, some albums sync that I haven't even selected.  My computer's operating system is Windows 8.1.  Please help - thank you!

    Providing the songs play OK in iTunes on the computer and you do not have any Restrictions set that wold prevent syncing those songs (Settings>General>Restrictions; iTunes purchases only)
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I'm trying to avoid having to fish through the thousands of songs already in my itunes library to create a playlist from the songs in the windows file that I've already selected.

    You're welcome.
