How to make iTunes font visable again?

I have a 64-bit Windows 7 computer with the latest version of iTunes and I cannot see what I am typing in the Search Bar within the iTunes Store but I still can type and search. I just need to remember what I typed to search it. I would like to know how I can see what I am typing in the Search Bar. Also, most of my text is missing, only with the devices and the store. I would appreciate any help and thanks in advance.

It has something to do with Segoe fonts in your Windows system.

  • How to make iTunes recognize the music library in my external hard drive after instaIling Yosemite?

    How to make iTunes recognize the music library in my external hard drive after instaIling Yosemite? I tried re-setting the media folder location, but it didn't work. What else should I do?

    The issue is not related to the external drive. iTunes Match has difficulties matching tracks ripped fom CDs because they may differ slightly from the versions on sale in iTunes. You can try the match again. Otherwise do a search of this forum. There are already many discussions on this subject here that may help you.

  • How to make iTunes read the song's name/singer from the file's name itself?

    Hi everyone,
    So I have this file with songs from everywhere. I spent quite some time now to make sure that the structure of each file's name is as such : "Singer - Song name", hoping that everything would be read by iTunes accordingly. However, either iTunes read it well, or it didn't read it at all ("Singer - Song name" appearing in Title alone), or iTunes read the "media" of the file (ie. what the guy I downloaded it from wrote for it in the Preferences, which usually is in capital letters or with a bunch of weird underscores). As I'm OCD and need everything to be neat, I'm highly tensed right now. I really want everything to be neat and clear!
    So, how do I make sure that iTunes reads the files' names such that it knows the structure is "Singer - Song name"? Thanks.

    iTunes doesn't use file names to determine how music appears in your library,  Rather, it uses metadata that is split between:
    data elements that are embedded within the media files
    data elements that are included in the entries in the iTunes database
    No amount of reorganization, renaming or other manipulation at the file level will make any difference to how songs will appear in iTunes.  Using your example:
    the value of the track number element is 1
    the value of the artist element is "Elvis Presley"
    the value of the song name element is "Blue Suede Shoes"
    Depending on how you configure iTunes then the file name is either:
    completely independent of iTunes (i.,e., the file containing this song could be xyz.mp3)
    dependent on the metadata managed by iTunes, (i.e., when you have these two options set:
    then iTunes will set the file name to be 1-01 Blue Suede Shoes.mp3 where:
    the file is in a folder called "Elvis Presley" (the name of the album)
    that folder is in one called "Elvis Presley" (the name of the artist) which is in iTunes Media\Music
    Going back to your question "How to make iTunes read the song's name/singer from the file's name" the answer is simple - you can't, as this is not how iTunes works.  There are some third-party utilities that you can use to set some metadata element values based on parsing of file names which might be a useful first step.  However, to use iTunes effectively you should really forget about / ignore file names - manage your media using appropriate metadata and allow iTunes to look after file names behind the scenes.

    That's not how it's supposed to work according to this: http://www.griffintechnology.com/support/italkpro/
    By default, a playlist will be created in iTunes called "Voice Memos" and those files will be transferred there automatically. The files themselves can be found on your computer in your iTunes Music folder in Unknown Artist > Unknown Album.
    It may be worth working through any trouble shooting articles on that site.

  • How to make iTunes detect the new location of music files?

    Hi everyone. I moved all of my music to a different location on my hard drive, and I changed the location in iTunes preferences, but it doesn't seem to detect this, so my library is empty now. I saved an itl, xml, and temp file as well, but I don't know what to do from here.
    I also tried dragging the new music folder onto the "Library" entry in iTunes, and this added everything, but I no longer have my ratings, playlists or anything like that.
    Is there some other way to have iTunes detect the new location? And can I get back my ratings and playlists?
    Thanks.

    Dear Michael, good day!
    1. As per your instruction, I turned off iTM.
    Small discrepancy – where are two screens with iTM switch:
    -Settings > iTunes & App Store. 
    -Settings > Music
    I switched OFF in both.
    NB: I turned device to English for convenience.
    2. My next step was Setting > General > Usage – tapped {Music};
    {All music} screen appeared; I swiped it and taped Delete. 
    3. I performed “hard reset” …………………………………..
    4. Switched back On iTM
    5. Taped Music app on Home screen
    iTM has started –  (it took 18 minutes  to completed, 60 mbps Wi-Fi speed )
    Regret to inform… All the same:
    Erase and reset to factory default? Or I did smf wrong?

  • How to make my font thinner

    I am using the "Italia" font..
    just using it to create a simple logo with company name..
    the font is a little chunky and want to thin it out a bit..
    can anyone offer some suggestions on making the font look
    thinner ...maybe
    using the transform or skew or scale options..
    not sure how to accomplish this..
    ASP, SQL2005, DW8 VBScript, Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio

    thanks for the suggestions..
    cant change the font as its the font that has been used for
    our business for
    far to long..
    we found that there is a Bold version and a Medium version..
    so we are
    having our network guys look thru old backups to see if we
    can find the
    medium which seems to be the one we used back then..
    My intentions were to make the font look skinner, i didnt
    want to modify or
    create a new font.. just make it appear thinner.. just like
    with any image
    you can mask and crop and blend and blur.. i figured that it
    could be done
    with type..
    but thanks again.

  • How to make a field editable again after displaying error msg (validation)

    Dear All,
    In dialog programming, I have written a validation on a text field that it should not be left blank by the user, but after displaying the message the field becomes gray (non-editable). How can I make it editable once again after displaying the error message.
    My code is as following:
    ***INCLUDE MZFBPS1_SAVE_DATAF01 .
    *&      Form  save_data
          text
    -->  p1        text
    <--  p2        text

    ****************Check For Empty Fields Start
    if ZFBPS_GATE_IN-truck_code is INITIAL
    or ZFBPS_GATE_IN-truck_no is INITIAL
    or ZFBPS_GATE_IN-transporter_code is INITIAL.
    MESSAGE e020(zmatlist).
    endif.
    ****************Check For Empty Fields Start
    Regards,
    Alok.

    hi,
    u can do it in chanin end chain.
    For example if there are 10 fields in the screen and for 5 fields whenever the user enters wrong values u like to give some error message. You can declare that fields in the chain enchain so that only those fields will be input enabled and all other fields will disabled.
    CHAIN.
    FIELD chk_connobj.
    FIELD chk_inst.
    FIELD chk_devloc.
    FIELD ehaud-haus.
    FIELD eanl-anlage.
    MODULE modify_screenfields.
    ENDCHAIN.
    *& Module modify_screenfields INPUT
    * text
    MODULE modify_screenfields INPUT.
    CLEAR okcode.
    okcode = sy-ucomm.
    CASE okcode.
    WHEN 'ENTER' OR 'EXECUTE'.
    IF chk_connobj IS INITIAL AND chk_inst EQ c_x AND
    chk_devloc EQ c_x.      -----------> ur condition
    IF ehaud-haus IS INITIAL.
    SET CURSOR FIELD 'EHAUD-HAUS'.
    MESSAGE e000(zo_spa) WITH text-017. " message obj
    ELSE
    loop at screen.
    if screen-name = 'FIELD_NAME'.
    field-name-input = 1. -----------> chnges to non-edit mod
    modify screen.

  • How to make iTunes support more than just one harddrive

    The title of this topic says it all: How do I make iTunes support more than just one harddrive? I cannot afford to buy a really huge drive just because iTunes doesn't support more than one.
    There must be a way around this! Anyone?

    I sure hope so. I run iTunes on an iBook G4 with limited space. I've got about 15gigs of music on an external harddrive. I only use the harddrive at home so I like to keep a handful of albums with me on the lappy. There should be some way to designate a primary folder on the laptop for imports, and a secondary (external or whatever) for the bulk of the library. Maybe some nifty way to do quick transfers between them within iTunes. Like a relocate function.
    Say I want the new death cab for cutie album on the laptop this week, but next week I want to swap it out with something new that comes out. It would be nice to highlight an album and select "transfer to secondary" so that iTunes can move the files for you, keep them organized, and keep track of them.
    That doesn't sound so difficult...

  • How to Make a "fonts.css" style sheet

    Hi, I  have a wordpress blog with a stylesheet named “style.css”. I want to change the fonts in the style sheet and so I want to create a separate style sheet named “fonts.css"
    I could just duplicate the ”style.css” page and then rename it “fonts.css” but I believe I read somewhere it is better to create a new style sheet named “fonts.css” and then add my font styles to that. Doens anyone know of a tutorial or how I make the new style sheet and add my fonts?

    I only typically use two stylesheets on any given site, layout.css and styles.css. One is for the overall layout/positioning info of the site and the other is the style information which would include fonts, colors, shadows, transitions, etc.
    If it is better in your mind and for your workflow to create a third stylesheet just for the font values, go for it. To me, fonts are just another style element though, so they stay in my styles.css file.
    There's really no right or wrong to doing it either way. Just make sure you create another link in the head section of your site to the new file if you create fonts.css.
    Thanks jon,
    Yes I agree, I could just change the fonts in “style.css” and then have less style sheets, but the themes developer told me to create a new style sheet named “fonts.css” only because the theme is updated regularly and uploading a new theme will write over the file named “style.css” and then your fonts will default to their original fonts.
    I don't see anything wrong with that approach. Just remember that if you have both styesheets linked to the same page then the page will get it's css styles from the last linked stylesheet.
    So for instance if you have:
    body {
    font-size: 14px ;
    in the style.css
    and
    body {
    font-size: 12px ;
    in the fonts.css
    and the last linked stylesheet was styles.css the page would display 14px text.
    So you just need to get them in the right order IF you have more than one styleshet linked to a page.
    Thanks Osgood,
    Yes that was my other question. So in my uploaded CSS folder I have the original “style.css” file and now my new “fonts.css” file. “style.css” is above the “fonts.css” file and both contain the same information except the file “fonts.css’ has been changed to use different fonts.
    So if I understand you correctly I need to either move the file “fonts.css" above the file “style.css” or delete “style .css” from the CSS folder so the file “fonts.css” will take precedence. Is this correct?
    Also, I needed to open style.php and edit the code to include “fonts.css” which I did.
    I opened "style.php" and then added the code in "red" then uploaded it to the (CSS) folder on the server.
    <?php
    header( "Content-type: text/css" );
    $files = array();
    $files[] = 'style.css';
    $files[] = 'responsive.css';
    $files[] = 'fonts.css';
    foreach($files as $file) :
        $content = @file_get_contents( $file );
        echo minify( $content );
    endforeach;
    function minify( $code ) {
              $code = preg_replace( '#\s+#', ' ', $code );
              $code = preg_replace( '#/\*.*?\*/#s', '', $code );
              $code = str_replace( '; ', ';', $code );
              $code = str_replace( ': ', ':', $code );
              $code = str_replace( ' {', '{', $code );
              $code = str_replace( '{ ', '{', $code );
              $code = str_replace( ', ', ',', $code );
              $code = str_replace( '} ', '}', $code );
              $code = str_replace( ';}', '}', $code );
              return trim( $code );
    ?>
    After doing all of this I still didn’t see any changes to my fonts so I must have done something wrong.
    Any ideas?

  • E535 - How to make USB stick working again

    Hi all!
    Recently my E535 does not recognize my USB stick anymore.
    Other computers do recognize it, the E535 not.
    I already formatted the stick, but that makes not difference to the E535.
    The device manager does not show any suspicious device.
    The disk manager does not show the stick's partition.
    When I stick in the stick, the USB devices icon in the task bar shortly shows up, but then immediately disappears.
    Interestigly the Lenovo Solution Center shows up three 'unknown device's.
    Does anyone have any idea how to make my E535 accept my USB stick again?
    Kind regards,
    Gerald 
    PS:
    I have Windows 8.1 Pro installed and up-to-date. Also the DriverToolKit says, that all drivers are up-to-date.
    Solved!

    Hi Gba,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As per the query we understood that you are facing issues with USB flash drive not able to detect on your ThinkPad E535.

  • TS4463 Sometimes, one of my iCloud folders becomes a sub folder and I have no idea why.  I can't move it to folder status with my mouse.  How to make it a folder again?

    Sometimes, when I am in iCloud mail one of my mail folders becomes a sub folder and I have no idea why.  I've tried to move the sub folder to the left using my mouse but it won't move.  I don't know whey this is happening and I don't know how to make the sub folder back to a folder.  Please help.

    OK, I was hoping that the problem would not effect a newly created folder.  I'm not sure it fix the problem, but if you have already tried I would try going to System Preferences>iCloud, unchecking Mail, restarting your Mac, then go back and check Mail again.  Then see if you can drag your subfolders to promote them to folders again.  (Incidentally, you don't drag them to the left to do this, you drag them up above the folder they are under until the position indicator shows that it is promoted to a folder, then drop it.)
