  • Can't import audio CD into iTunes with Vista

    I can't import audio CDs into iTunes with my new Dell 531 Vista computer. The songs seem to import, but only small (~50K) files are created, which don't play. Also, I cant play audio CDs using iTunes. CDs do play using Windows Media Player. The DVD/CD drive seems to work fine in all other applications.
    I have tried the "device filter" regedit fix, but no luck. Anyone else have this problem?
    Here are my diagnostics details:

    JohnAndKel,
    That's odd because the CD reading test that the diagnostics runs didn't report an error. What happens if you select a song from the CD in iTunes and play directly from CD?
    (Just a note, the filter trick doesn't do anything for CD import, just CD burn. iTunes doesn't use the Gear drivers for reading the CD.)

  • I had to restore my computer. All my music is on my iphone. Can I import it back to itunes? When I look to sync, it want to remove anything on the iphone

    I had to restore my computer(windows). All my music is on my iphone and ipod. Can I back this into itunes? When I try to sync, it wants to erase data on the ipone or ipod.

    Certainly you did not restore your computer without making sure that your backup copy of your computer was up to date.
    Just use your backup copy to put everything back.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases

  • My folder of playlists is showing up on my phone, but is no longer in itunes! How can I get them back into itunes to synch with my ipad? Sharing on our home network is enabled.

    I'm relieved the playlists (there are 11 in the folder) are still on my phone, but I can find them nowhere in itunes. Other playlists are still there- just that one folder has disappeared. I synched my new ipad to the library, and when I did, the playlist was not one of the options in itunes.
    Background: I have enabled sharing on our home network, and I haven't moved the locations of itunes files or changed anything with my computer, the settings, or my itunes login (apple id).
    My goal is to restore the playlists from my iphone to the itunes library on my laptop so I can then synch the playlists to my ipad.
    Thank you for your help!

    Music is not included in the backup (and nor are films or tv shows), only the contents of third-party apps are included. Did you not do File > Transfer Purchases when connected to your computer's iTunes to copy your iTunes purchases over, and/or have you not got a backup copy of your music somewhere e.g. on an external drive ?

  • App Tabs. My app tabs have dissapeared with the latest update. 4.0Beta5. The option to make a tab an app tab and my previous app tabs have dissapeared.

    see above. When I rebooted Firefox my App Tabs . My app tabs have disappeared with the latest update. 4.0Beta5. The option to make a tab an app tab and my previous app tabs have disappeared.

    App Tabs are stored in sessionstore.js as part of the session data, so make sure that session restore is enabled and working.
    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .

  • Need help getting tv shows back into itunes

    Okay, a little explanation is required before I get to my question
    I had some problems with my computer that to fix it, the geniuses did archive and install and deleted my user account, and set up a new one for me.
    After this, I was able to recover everything, and deleted the previous system it had created in my hard drive. The only problem I have encountered is that it will not let me put my tv shows that I have downloaded from the itunes store, back into itunes, despite the fact that it let me put all my music back.
    I want them in there, so that I can put them on my ipod, and I thought that when I updated my ipod it would just add the new stuff, and all my old stuff would still be there. But since it is synced with the old account, it says that it will delete my ipod and resync it, and I will be without my tv shows. I have also tried just dragging them into the ipod, but that doesn't work either.
    So my question is, how can I get them back into itunes without repurchasing them?

    Do the TV Shows actually appear in your iTunes library? If not, what happens when you try to add them?
    If the shows are in your library, have you checked your syncing prefs to see if they've defaulted. (TV Shows tab when iPod is connected.)
    Do you get any error messages related to this problem? Were the TV Shows and Music files purchased with same account? All they authorized on the same number of computers?
    Not sure, but I have read about deauthorizing then re-authorizing your account. But you're only allowed to do this once a year ---or maybe once a year on ALL accounts (if you have more than one). You might want to inquire or search the forum on this point before proceeding.
    Hope something here works for you...

  • Working alternating with iPhoto and FCE tgrying to import pictures from iPhoto into FCE suddenly all my 22300 pictures disappeared leaving empty frames. Does somebody know where the pictures could have gone and how can I get them back into iPhoto? Lothar

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • HT1925 I have upgraded to itunes 11.3.8. My library is showing, however I can't log onto itunes. I have logged in with my apple id, but it doesn't come up. Help?

    I have upgraded to itunes 11.3.8. My library is showing, however I can't log onto itunes. I have logged in with my apple id, but it doesn't come up. Help?
    When I click on itunes store within itunes, the screen comes up blank. I'm using a macbook pro.

    I have the same problem. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting link you added has the first step listed as "Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences" which we (the original poster and I) can't do as our Preferences are greyed out. We can't click on them to verify anything.
    In FaceTime itself it's verified my apple id (also double checked via the site) and then it says the email is "verified" but then it freezes and after a minute or so it says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
    After checking the network connection, it still doesn't work. It's rather frustrating as it all worked fine until about a week or two ago.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I deleted all my playlists provided. However, they are still on my Ipod Touch. Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied back into Itunes?

    I deleted all my playlists provided. However, they are still on my Ipod Touch. Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied back into Itunes?

    A playlist takes up almost no room. A few kB at most.
    It is simply a list of songs in the library
    Do you want the playlists or not?
    Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied backinto iTunes?

    How do you manage your iPod? Do you Sync your entire music library, or only selected playlists?

    Are you using the latest version of Silverkeeper? - v.2.0.2 is stated to be compatible with Snow Leopard.

    Good morning to all of you
    I have A mac and I did the mistake of upgrading my Lightroom 5.4 to 5.6 Now I can't import anything it says "Could not find namespace: AgCreativeCloudUtils"
    Could anyone help me resolve this problem?
    Should I uninstall the program and reinstall it
    Thank you so much

    I asked because an awful lot of people have recently been confused between downloading the Cloud and the perpetual versions of Lr - although I'm not automatically assuming your'e guilty of this - and can't understand why their serial no won't unlock their new software.
    If the wrong version has been installed, then it must be uninstalled and the right one downloaded.

  • I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. Help!

    I have just agreed to software updates on my imac and now can't open my mail.  There is a message saying this version of mail isn't compatible with this latest software.  I have located the updated mail in the applications folder but it won't open. I don't have the original operating software disk.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Your reply suggests that you have moved Mail to a different location, which (as I said) will prevent it from being properly updated. You cannot use Mail 4.5 with any recent version of Mac OS X. Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) included Mail 5 and Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) includes Mail 6. I'm assuming that you have either Lion or Mountain Lion, but if that is incorrect, you will need to provide that information.
    At this point, you will need to reinstall your system. Hold down command-R at startup and reinstall the system right on top of the old one. This should not disturb any of your documents or applications, though you should have backups beforehand in case something goes wrong. And at this point, with your system in an uncertain state (I don't entirely know what you have done to it), something could go wrong.
    You will also want to delete the old copy of Mail 4.5, wherever that is. You can't use it.
    In the future, do not move any of the preinstalled applications. Leave them where they are.
