Help with i Tunes

I wanted to go on to my i Tunes and add more music. When I try to open i Tunes, I get a message that says: The file "i Tunes Library .itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of i Tunes. HELP!!! I need to be able to add music!

One way is to download the latest iTunes from Apple and then point the latest version to your i Tunes Library .itl location.
However there seems to be a lot of syncing and deleted files problems, when using the latest iTunes with the iPod Classic.
I would prefer to use your current iTunes, if it is not giving any problem with your iPod Classic.
1. Click the File menu
2. Select Add Folder to Library
this will show you where your music files are supposed to be. ( either in iTunes Music or iTunes Media )
3. Click OK
and wait for 20 minutes or so while iTunes generate a new library file.
Good luck.

Can i get some help with i-tunes?

i just got the new version of itunes and now it wont even start up. theres no message or anything. i tried right clicking it and clicking open and it still doesnt work.i also, before the problem, saved all the itunes music to a seperate folder in a different folder and that wont work either. can som1 please help me?

Hi, R2X.
I think you've already answered the first couple of questions but let's try to get an idea of what might be going on with some preliminary questions from b noir's "smack" for iTunes launch failures:
Is there an error message associated with the launch failure?
If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
If there's not an error message, let's check your QuickTime (its well-being is a requirement for a functioning iTunes).
Go to the XP Start menu > All Programs and try running QuickTime.
Does it start?
If not, then the same question as for iTunes - is there an error message?
If so, what does it say and what (if any) error numbers are there?
Do you notice any other peculiar behavior with QuickTime?

Hard drive crash... need help with i Tunes....

Hello all,
Here is the problem. A couple of weeks ago my girlfriend's hard drive crashed. I was able to pull her hard drive out and slave it to mine, in order to save her docs/pics/I-tunes. I got everything off and burned it to a couple of DVDs.
My question is how do I get those music files (the ones I recovered) back on to her new computer?
Thanks,
Jason
Windows XP
PS. Her i-Pod does have all of her music files... If that matters...

There's a program called PodUtil (http://www.kennettnet.co.uk/software/podutil.php)-the trial works, you don't have to buy it. And you can get all of the songs/videos from your girlfriend's iPod and move it to a designated folder, once you do that, simply add folder to iTunes. Hope I helped...post questions if you have any.

I need urgent help with i tunes and my i phone 3 GS

I have just brought my own lap top and have installed i tunes.
because all the music on my i phone was all done on a friends lap top and
itunes i want to put it on my itunes from my i phone..
is this possible to do?? if so how do i put it from my i phone onto my itunes
without deleting all my music and applications??
Thanks heaps

First, authorize your new computer in itunes: Store>Authorize this computer.
Next, make sure that auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected is "NOT CHECKED" in itunes>preferences.
Next, connect your phone, DO NOT SYNC!
Go up to file "Transfer purchases made on this ipod to this computer"
All of your purchased music & apps will then be transferred, music you ripped on your own won't, you'll have to restore that from a backup.
As for your contacts, before you sync make sure you have at least one contact in whatever program your computer uses for that purpose, outlook/address book.
At the prompt for merge or replace, select merge contacts.

Message was edited by: Rooney -- added code using syntax highlight

I was able to modify my code a bit, however I don't see a way of not using loops.
In the loop, I am updating 2 columns. EM_PRIMARY_FLAG, and EM_GROUP_ID. The data I am working with has duplicate records, and that is why I am using a distinct in the cursor. The requirements are is to make one record a primary record, and the rest are reference records. What makes my record primary is updating column EM_PRIMARY_FLAG with a 'Y', and updating EM_GROUP_ID with a number combines all duplicate records into a group.
In the procedure, I am getting the distinct records, looping through each one, and then doing 2 updates:
1 - Update EM_PRIMARY_FLAG to 'Y' where rownum = 1, this will set one record to be primary
2 - Update EM_GROUP_ID to a number (V_ROWID := V_ROWID + 1) where V_ROWID starts from 1, to group all records into a set.
Here is my latest code after modifying it:
create or replace

Itunes says I need an additional 52.9MB of space to sync my ipod, settings says I have 155MB of space it is an 80GB with 11700 tunes on and no other media, can anyone help ? Dennis

My itunes will not sync because it says I need 52MB of space, however, I have 155MB of space left according to settings, it is an 80GB version with 11750 tunes on,73.95 GB used and no other media, so it would seem it should have space, can anyone help
Dennis

I ran into a similar problem. I can't remember the user here (BZ something) but they suggested to synch by checking synch only checked items. Then deselect all items and reselect only 1. This should successfully synch. Then, after that is done, select everything you want to synch and it should synch. On my iPhone5 I have 64 GB. The slider bar said I had about 20 GB free but synch failed and said I needed 5 free GB. I had 20 free. Basically what he said was the slider lies ( the media is gone but the file space hasn't been freed up yet). My trouble started when I went from iOS6 to 7. I did what he suggested. I got all my stuff in and still have 14.1 GB free. Hope it works for you.

Need Help with Transporting Playlists Back to I-Tunes

If anyone can help with this issue, I would really appreciate it. Here's my situation:
After many long hours organizing my playlists on I-Tunes, my pc malfunctioned and I needed a complete software overhaul. Therefore, I have had to reinstall all software programs on my computer...including I-Tunes. Due to these procedures, I have lost all of my playlists on I-Tunes.
I did manage to save all of my songs to an external hard drive, and I have copied them back to my I-Tunes library (albeit without any playlists). What I would like to be able to do is transfer the organized playlists from my ipod back to I-Tunes to avoid a massive reorganization project.
I should point out that hardly any of my music has come from buying songs on I-Tunes so the "Transfer Purchases" option does not seem a viable option.
Thanks so much to anyone who can offer suggestions.

Aside from the method I already mentioned in this thread, there is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.

Having trouble with I-Tunes, Please Help!!!!!!!! New User

Hi, im having continous problems with i tunes im a new user and im finding very hard to work out how me and my girlfriend can use i tunes with different i pods. Im sure their is a way we can use the same program without having to keep deleting each others music and adding it all over again. Can someone please advise how we can both use i tunes from the same program/computer and have our own library of music without the others music be downloading onto the wrong i pods.
I hope that makes sense and someone can help.
Thanks Alex

There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and user account.
b) Creating multiple user accounts and having separate libraries.
Sharing a Library
If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish):
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Mac
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
Loading the iPod shuffle differs slightly but it can still be used with the others, for details have a look at this page:
Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Mac
Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Windows
Separate User Accounts
Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists

You have to restore the iPad by syncing to the original computer that you synced to.
