Having problems with order of songs on albums.

I want to add a track to an album that wasn't originally on said album (bonus track on the UK release of the album). I've changed the song and album info (listed the song as track 15 of 15, changed number of tracks on the album from 14 to 15, etc.), but when I look at the album, the song stays on top unless I list the songs by track number (which is fine when I'm just looking at the album, but it doesn't help at all when I'm looking at my whole library).
So, how do I get iTunes to think this song is part of the album and move it to the end of the album where it belongs?

iTunes seems to sort the album by the Date Added.
One way to get around it is to drag all the songs from the album to the desktop, delete them from iTunes and add them back.
If you want to keep the original date added, first change the computer date to match, add them back then change the computer date to normal.
This sorting is supposed to have been fixed in iTunes 7.3.1.

Problem with downloading individual songs from an already purchased album to iPhone

Hi All,
I'm having problems with downloading single songs from the "purchased" list onto my iPhone. I reset my phone and went to redownload my music, however i only want to download certain songs from different albums which in the past i've been able to do by navigating to the purchases section of the itunes app, then opening each album and selecting the cloud like icon by each song i want.
Having tried this today, i get the list of songs however the all have a "Purchased" next to them which is greyed out and the only way to download anything is to get the whole album. I've not got iTunes match on and can't think of any settings i've changed, can any suggest what i need to do to enable me to just get a selection of songs?

Actually Michael I know exactly how to delete.. The iPhone would not let me swipe to the left to delete the individual song, so I went to the album view and did it there.. The issue I am having is a bug because it removed 3/4 of the albums availablity off my iPhone.. You post proved no help because it is basic troubleshooting which, if you read my post, I have already done.. I did however figure out how to fix my issue on my own.. Basically I had to remove the album from my iTunes on my computer and upload it again to iTunes Match..

My ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

my ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased from iTunes) since the update. Have restarted, rebooted etc. and it is worse than before. Help! Spent a lot of money on these and they won't play properly.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased on iTunes) since the update. The first day of the update, no problems...played 6 hours of music videos and no freezing. Today...every single video froze!!! So frustrating! I rebooted, restarted, powered down and no help. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

I don't know how to do this without using a mouse point.
This may help, http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm
As for question #2, you call tell how iTunes is sorting songs by the up or down arrow next to a header name.
Even the original order that the songs were entered or date added or last played can be sorted.
Much easier with a mouse or touch pad.

Having problem with midi?

I am having problem with midi keyboard (korg pa80) I having hard time to midi to logic every time I have to either restart the logic or restart the keyboard or plug out the USB cable and put back in order to work. Plus when I created a new track doen't work with it. I have to do same as above to make it work? help please how can i refresh the midi connection with going throw steps above?

Is it the computer dropping the MIDI interface, or the computer connectin is fine adn Logic is not seeing it?
Run the Audio/MIDI Setup utility and make sure your MIDI device is present. If not, try another USB port, or don't use a hub.
Assuming the connection is solid, in Logic, option-click on File -> New and try it - if it works in that song, but not your own songs, it's a song specific issue, so check your MIDI input handling in the environment.

Problem with videos and only one album playback

Hey everyone.
I'm having two problems.First off,there's one album on my iPod that plays weird.It sounds like it's skipping,but not like what I'm seeing a lot of you having problems with when it goes to the next song instead of finishing the current one.Mine sounds like a CD skipping,only it's constant and all throughout the song and sounds horrible,it ruins the song.It only does it with one album though,and it's my favorite album by my favorite band,so I'm kinda bummed.I initially had three songs on this album that I brought over from Windows Media Player after uploading it onto the from my CD about two years before I got the iPod.I later added a few more and they do the same thing.I'm wondering if it's a problem with the licensing,since it's only this album,because that's the same way I got most of my other songs and they're fine.I tried deleting them and re-uploading them from the CD,but that didn't help.Tried converting the file to AAC;that didn't help either.I'm utterly befuddled.
The second question is that I've got two videos I downloaded from Limewire that I converted to iPod format and everything you're supposed to do,but I can only get the video and not the audio.My video podcasts work fine,it's just these two I'm having a problem with.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On the second question...
If the videos are multiplexed MPEG files then the audio and the video are muxed onto the same track. QuickTime, and therefore any application that uses QT like iTunes, the iPod, iMovie (Mac app), etc. expect two separate tracks, one video and one audio. So when you play these muxed files, the video is played and the audio is not heard.
So you need to do a conversion on the file first. MPEG Streamclip is a popular one that comes in both Mac and Windows versions and is known to "repair" this problem.
See this other link for other applications that might be able to do the same thing. But your root cause is the muxed MPEG files.

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. Starting on a new computer now. I can get my music from old computer?

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?

WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!

BOB we need you urgently
Perhaps Bob will see this thread, he is the professor in these cases.
You do not use a WEP password but wpa/wpa2 on router and equipment.
All equipment connects to WiFi, but for your iPad.
Even with all other equipment WiFi off, you cannot connect your iPad.
Your iPad connects to other WiFi nets correctly.
All resets etc done on iPad and Router.
Still I am not sure it is your router for sure, frustrating...
I want to test 2 other things:
1. in your iPad, set everything OFF in Settings/Cellular, turn off/then/on your WiFi, and see whether it will still not connect...
2. If that does not do it: disconnect the router as well as the modem from the power, for 15 seconds, then reconnect the modem, let it fully start, then reconnect the routet let it fully start, turn of your WiFi in iPad, then on, and see whether it will connect.

Is anyone else having problems with the Canon Online Store?

In the last month or so, I've had one problem after another with the Canon Online Store; from being unable to delete items from the shopping cart; to not being able to add "in stock" items; disappearing Wish Lists; and just now, I tried to add one lens cap to the 6 or 7 items I already had in the Shopping Cart, and they disappeared.
I've called, more than once, and I've written, also more than once, to Canon Support about this, but they ignore what I tell them, and tell me there are no problems with the Online Store. They don't even seem to report to anyone that anyone has complained, because each time is "the first time", even though I've called (more than once) and written (more than once) to them about continuing Online Stores problems.
Is anyone else having problems with the Canon Online Store?
Why does Canon not care to track reported problems with the storefront part of their web-site?
I'm not trying to insult Canon, it's just that I've been a Canon customer for less than 3 months, and the're only batting .333, so far. Canon Support was very quick to respond about a concern I had that a 50mm f/1.4 I had just purchased was authentic or not. In trying to register that lens, I looked up on the Canon web site where to find the serial number. Since my new lens did not have any numbers there, I was concerned I had been sold a fake. But, then Canon Support sent me link to a different online document that showed a few different places where it might be, and there it was.
Is Canon like that with other problems, as well? Or is their "batting" average better than my very limited experience?
I just love my Rebel T5i, and my Canon lenses (from "the Kit brothers of the Cropped Frame coral": EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, and EF-S 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM; to the "Truly Nifty Fifty", the 50mm f/1.4 USM, [the f/1.8 is just a "thrifty fifty"], and finally, the "Super-Macro" MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1x-5x Macro)!
Regards and Thanks,

Hi Danny. Thanks for replying.
I only use my desktop PC to access Canon's web site, and I've been using Mozilla Firefox for years. And, yes, it is the latest version. Since Canon REFUSES to support the use of Firefox on it's web site, WHAT BROWSER DOES CANON SUPPORT? WHEN did Canon STOP SUPPORTING Firefox?
I've been told that there are 2 pending orders in my account. Yet, I NEVER placed those orders! WHY CAN'T CANON SEE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM???
Instead of off-target suggestions, and pasted boilerplate REFUSALS TO EVEN LOOK at this issue, I would prefer it if Canon went "old school", and FIXED THE PROBLEM, in the first place! But, maybe that's a bit too grown up of an answer for you!
"Award-winning" support??? And, just exactly WHAT AWARD did Canon "support" WIN for CONSISTANTLY IGNORING REPORTED PROBLEMS??? The OSTRICH?
Please pull your head out, and FIX this problem, OR YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!!
Thank you for your "prompt" attention to this matter!

Is anyone having problems with the new Xerox printer driver update from Apple? My 8700S is no longer working with QuarkXPress.

I allowed a System Update that included a Xerox Printer update. I am running a MacPro 10.6.8 with Quark 8.5.1 and a Xerox ColorQube 8700S. EVERY was working perfectly before the "update" but afterwards anything sent to the printer from Quark would stall the printer. I went to the Xerox website and downloaded their Printer Driver and tried again. Now I could print from Quark but I can NOT get to the printer window to change the type of paper, etc. So, the problem still persists.
Should I try going into Time Machine and trying to find the Xerox Print Driver in the Library folder?
Should I upgrade the whole system software? (I wouldn't mind doing that AFTER I get this magazine off to the commerical printer)
Should I upgrade to Quark 9?
Any help here would be apprciated.
Thanks - Rob

As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software. I hide the updates until I need them. Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os. I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work. First I would try the following....
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark. If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

Having problem with the printer with type "PDF Publisher"

Hi,
We are having problem with printing PDF reports with print style as "PDF Publishrer". The concurrent program errors out after it generates the report. But when we try that with style "PORTRAIT" then it prints successfully. We have tried with a number of printers and a number of reports. The results are same. So my understanding is it has something to do with the printer configuration from the EBS side.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Hi Hussein ,

The application is R12.1, Database 11.1.0.7, OS is Solaris 10.
The database characterset is US7ASCII.
The printer type is --PASTA Universal Printer Type

Having problems with iPhone coverflow

I have a problem with the iPhone coverflow : some album artworks appear 2 times on coverflow with the same song in the 2 of them, like if i had the song 2 times, and the other thing is that, for example, i normally have 4 songs on that album but on coverflow only 1 of them appears in it.... but when i search for the songs they are all on my iphone, they just don't appear on the album...
So i tried to check and uncheck the songs that had that problem, but it didn't change anything... the weird thing is that on iTunes it doesn't do that just on the iphone..
So i'd like to know if my iphone has some type of problem or if it's iTunes ??

Perform a reset and see if that corrects the problem.
Reset iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I'm having problems with install version 11.1.4. If I uninstall and reinstall will I lose all my downloaded music?

Hi, so did I. It seems to be a huge problem with everyone. I opened a folder on desktop and called it target. I copied all my songs into that folder.
I uninstalled Itunes completely. Rebooted. Then I installed a fresh install.
I then dragged all the songs back to Itunes and it worked. I hope that helps.
I read an article the other day and apple is suppose to come out with some genius fix for this problem, it really seems to be global.
Good luck,

I was having problems with my iPhone 5s. Was able to get another 5s. In the process of setting it up, but it is taking forever ... and it seems to be frozen at one particular place.

I was having problems with my iPhone 5s (couldn't receive iMessages or emails). Cell company tried "fixing it" but to no avail. They ordered me a repacement 5s. Trying to set up, but it is taking forever. Seems to be stuck in one particular spot. It's at the stage with a black screen, white apple icon and a bar underneath. The bar is is just a fraction complete, and it has been stuck in this spot for almost an hour. Tried to restart it but it went to the same spot and froze again.
