How to view metadata in iTunes music store

I have to figure out how to view metadata for songs that have been funded by a public funding agency. The artist/record label is supposed to thank the funding agency in the metadata of albums/singles. How can I view this in the iTunes store (without purchasing the songs or album) to see if the text is there?

If you already have the lyrics loaded in iTunes, this free plug-in will display the cover art with the lyrics superimposed. It is actually a visualizer.

How do i get my itunes music store to appear in English, not Japanese

The music store part of itunes is in Japanese, the rest of itunes is in English. I have tried everything I can think of to get it into English. Help please!

Zevoneer's idea is good, if it doesn't work, try rebuilding your itunes preferences file...this has worked for some folks.
The steps below assume you know what your iTunes > Edit Preferences settings are.
Stop the iTunes program and go have a look in Win Explorer
C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
Rename that file to iTunes.pref.old.
That way you can get your old prefs back, if you want.
Now try to start iTunes again, and it will ask some questions as it tries to rebuild the preferences file.
Just hit Next and Cancel, don't really answer those questions in other words.

How to Remove the iTunes Music Store Arrow?

OK, I may be totally missing something, but how do you get the little arrow (that now shows up next to songs, albums, artists,etc) to disappear? I can't do it in view (only manages columns) or preferences or music store...
annoying to have my homemade tracks/obscure stuff come up with that little arrow...no you're not going to have it in the itunes music store....

For the Terminally challenged, there's already been a couple of free apps written which do this:

How to create a link to album in Itunes Music Store?

How is this done? Would like to send someone a link to a specific album so they can purchase & download it.

Easy. Find the album or track in iTunes Music Store, then control-click (or right-click if you have a two-button mouse). One of the options you'll see is "Copy iTunes Music Store URL". Then go to your email (or chat window, etc.) and hit Command-V to paste.

How to upload an album to iTunes Music Store ?

The producer I work with wants to know how can deal with Apple to get the album available on iTunes Music Store ? I can't find nothing on that. Also, do they compress themselves the audio files or we can do it ourselves ?
Thanks !

Contact Apple via this web page.
They’ve reportedly been swamped with requests, so don’t be surprised if you don’t hear back from them soon or indeed ever. If you don't hear from them, you might want to consider signing up with an indie label or marketing service that already has a relationship. In another post, an Apple employee said that there are 600 already, including CD Baby and IODA. A new service that seems promising if true is TuneCore.
Good luck.

How do I redeem a gift card in iTunes music store, without upgrading iTunes

How do i make purchase at foreign non-american itunes music stores???

i wanted to purchase a song from the german itunes music store, so i headed over there, and was told that my account was only valid for purchase in the american itunes store, but if i click the ok tab, then it will transfer over my account info, so i can start buying german songs.
anyway, that's what i did, and at the very moment that i saw a balance on the top right corner of itunes, an error message came up and kicked me back to the american store:
itunes could not connect to the music store. an unknown error occurred (-3237). make sure your network connection is active and try again.
i tried again and again. the same result happened all three times, which led me to the the conclusion that i can try again and again and the same result will happen over and over. i cannot help but wonder if this is some sorta unspoken mechanism to help keep the dollars at home, instead of having the greens shipped overseas.
can someone in the know help with my problem please? any help will be truly appreciated. thank you.

To expand a little on what Not so techinical said, to buy from another country's store will require a credit card & billing address in that country. A gift card from that country also requires a billing address in the country. These are requirements of the record companies.

How do I move my itunes music library to a new computer?

I bought a new PC--Dell inspiron 530, running Windows Vista.
I need to transfer my itunes library (itunes 7) from my old computer which runs Windows XP.
I have a CD/DVD burning capability on the old computer.
I understand that there is a way to transfer that entire music library using CD/DVD, but I get conflicting information--one thing I've read tells me that I can only transfer music I've purchased fro the itunes Store; another article tells me I can transfer the entire library.
Does anybody have a step-by-step procedure to effect this type of transfer (moving the entire itunes library)?
Thanks very much for any assistance you can provide.

Probably the most straightforward way to get iTunes onto your second computer is to network it with the first one and copy your iTunes folder across. Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Copying all your iTunes files to one location - Windows
Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the same location on the new computer. On a PC the default location is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\ (or C:\Username\Music\ in Vista). You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
You can also use this method with an external hard drive, you drag the folder from the first computer to the external drive and then from the drive to the second computer.
If you have and iPod, some iPods can be used as an external drive and you can use them to move your iTunes (this option isn't available with the iPod Touch): How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

2nd Gen (Touch Wheel) won't play audio book from iTunes Music Store

I have a 10GB Touch Wheel iPod (2nd Gen). Software version 1.5.
I recently purchased the unabridged version of The DaVinci Code from the iTunes Music Store. The 7-part audio book plays just fine on my iBook and on my daughters' Nanos but it does not play on my older iPod.
What happens when I choose the first part on my older iPod is that you can see it cycle through parts 1-7 without playing anything and then returns to the main menu.
I don't have problems with other music or previously purchased audio books.
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

I figured it out on my own... somehow my device got switched to "shuffle" mode. I have no idea how that happened, but there you go. Since I never use it in that mode, it never occurred to me to check that. Sigh. I switched it back to 'play in order' mode and now it is just fine.

I can't get into the itunes music store - can anyone help?

When I try to get to the itunes music store, I get the following error message:
itunes could not connect to the music store. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. Then try again.
I don't understand what this means, and I don't know how to do what it is telling me to fix it. I'd appreciate any advice anyone can offer. Please be very specific, because I don't have lots of computer knowledge.

Were you connecting regulary up until a week ago? I have noticed that I have gotten a lot of those messages tonight. May the iTune site is very busy? (a lot of iTunes cards given out today)
I closed iTunes and then re-opened and it helped. My connections have been intermittent at best tonight.

Podcast feed not updating correctly in iTunes Music Store

Hi. I doubt anyone is able to help with this question, but this is where Apple "support" directed me...
I've created a podcast feed:
http://wwf.org.au/podcasts/rss
I've registered it with the iTunes Store:
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=168761907
We added a new item to the feed yesterday and it is not appearing in the iTunes Store feed. Subscribing to the feed manually (that is using the feed from our website) works fine, correctly showing the three items. But the iTunes Store feed only shows two items.
I clicked the "Report a concern" link in iTunes but it went 404 (resource not found).
If anyone can shed any light on why this might be happening, and more importantly how I might be able to fix it, that would be much appreciated.

Upgrading from Wi to an iMac, how do I transfer my iTunes music (~40gB)?

I currently have a machine running Windows XP and will be getting an iMac soon. I don't want to have to rip all of my CD's again, but am not sure if it is possible to transfer my music between these systems? Is there a way?
