HT1711 How can you tell if a song has DRM?

I recently purchased a Sonos speaker system for my home. I have noticed that I cannot play certain songs from my iTunes on my Sonos system because they were purchased through iTunes pre-iTunes Plus (the songs are DRM). Is there some kind of filter when browsing through my library to highlight songs that include DRM?

All my iTunes purchases in recent years indicate "Kind: Purchased AAC Audio File". I have not seen "Protected" for a long time.
All iTunes Store music has been DRM-free for quite a while:

How Can You Tell if a Song You WANT to Purchase can be a Ringtone?

Sorry, I would have posted this in the iTunes folder, but it's not allowing me to post there for some reason.
Anyways, does anyone know how you can tell if a song you WANT to purchase is available as a ringtone? I know that if you already have purchased songs then your library will have a ringtone column which let's you know if the song is available as a ringtone. What I specifically want to know is if there is any way to find out if a song you WANT to purchase is availble as ringtone BEFORE you purchase it. I have all appropriate ringtone boxes checked off in preferences and "view preferences." However, when I go to the iTunes store, none of the songs in the store have any information on whether or not they are available as ringtones. I don't want to buy a song, especially if I'm just getting it for ringtone purposes, and then find out that it's not available as a ringtone.
And yes, I have the latest version of iTunes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. With the purchase of my iPhone I am a first time user of iTunes (I used to use only Rhapsody and Napster). So far iTunes has been a challenge to use. I'm trying to get used to it, but it's difficult. And it seems like basic information, such as if a song is available as a ringtone before purchase, is not easily forthcoming.
Anyways, thanks to all if you have any suggestions.

Okay, I don't know why, but the bell was not showing on the iTunes store. I re-checked "ringtones" on the view preferences and reloaded iTunes and now the bell column is there. Thanks to the both of you.
BTW, there aren't very many songs available for rintones are there? I really miss Cingular's media.net. There's no reason why we shouldn't be able to access that. Media.net has way more options for ringtones then iTunes.

How can you tell your iPhone 5s has been unlocked?

Is there anyway to tell from the Settings menu on the iPhone or from a menu in iTunes that the phone has been unlocked. My wireless carrier has allowed me to unlock my phone because I will be spending an extended period of time in another country. Leaving in a few weeks. They have sent some kind of notification and bit of software to the Apple server. According to the instructions, this unlock instruction will be loaded on my phone next time I sync on iTunes. But I won't be able to tell if the unlocking has been successful until I arrive in this other country and put another SIM card in the phone. So my question: is there a menu on the iPhone or in iTunes that provides any indication that the phone has been successfully unlocked?

This is how the process works ,needs following to the letter

and no there is no indication in settings since locking is a Carrier issue

How can you tell if the line has errors?

I'll try and keep this as brief as possible.
<background>
For 2years (up to 6months ago) I was on BE ADSL and was very impressed with the quality of the service (low latency, decent bandwidth) on my line. However when I heard that FTTC was being rolled out I switched to Zen internet on the understanding that I could then switch to the FTTC product as soon as it was available.
Immediately after switching to Zen I started to experience problems with VOIP (I use VOIP extensions against an externally hosted PBX) and was seeing CRC errors on the line. In the process (~2months) of getting this diagnosed the FTTC product became available and since I wanted uncapped switched to BT Infinity for Business Option 2.
</background>
I now find that again I get sporadic VOIP problems (but not as bad as on the ADSL2 service via Zen) but very regular BBC iPlayer dropouts listening to the radio.
Due to the previous problems whilst on ADSL2 I suspect I still have a minor line fault but as I can't access any stats on the line have no way to verify. Does anyone have any pointers on where to get line stats to see what is going on on the connection? I can't get any info out of the OR modem.
Regarding my network. I am using a cabled, gigabit connection directly to a Draytek 2820n which is in turn doing the PPPoE through the BT OR modem. I use two different machines and experience the same issues on both. I'm a server & network admin by trade so pretty sure it's not my internal infrastructure at fault.
My IP profile is apparently 38717 Kbps down / 10000 KBps up.
BT Speed tester shows achieved 26581 down and 4912 up though

jmansford,
I may be wrong about this as I am only refering to my own 2750n settings,but looking at your upload throughput test results some if not all of your problems could be due to a wrongly wieghted QoS setting and/or port capacity setting based on QoS.
As you line profile is ok at 38717 Kbps down / 10000 KBps up it looks like there is no problem on your actual line,but phone line noise test might find some crackle,but I don`t think so.
By your post,you say your are routing PPPoE through the Draytek into the OR modem.?
If so,maybe you could try leaving the OR or Draytek out of the chain as a process of testing where faults [if any] are.?
To sum up a bit imo leaving the OR modem out of the net chain might be a better way as I only use the 2750n on it`s own as the OR modem is not then needed.
Opps! sorry I might be wrong in my above thinking,but is your Draytek just a router or a modem/router combined like the 2750n.?
But either way the QoS setting are still important.

How can you tell when your timeline has surpassed making one DVD?

Is there a way that Final Cut Express lets you know that you have passed a certain amount of space to record on one DVD?
Thanks,

There are many variables to this problem. iDVD, for instance, lets you record 1 hour of video [total] for the best quality. It also can record up to 2 hours compressing it down as needed, so you loose quality. If you are using DVD Studio Pro, you have many different compression options, and therefore, you can have different maximum lengths of time that can be recorded onto DVD. Then, there are applications like Burn* that are simple, and don't do menus, so it offers more room for video. Then, of course, you can use a Dual-Layer DVD, which doubles the capacity of a DVD, so there's more content you can burn using iDVD** (or just better quality). I'm sure others can contribute more than I did.

HT4914 How can you tell which songs are downloaded from the cloud on an ipad

How can you tell which songs are downloaded on the iPad from the cloud?

I know ipad albums are more like tagging photos rather than putting them in folders. I just have a nagging feeling I missed some pics and I have too many to try to go figure out one by one. I don't look at my photos from the camera roll, only from albums I tagged just because I imported photos from different sources and the dates and order is really messed up. I just want to know that I am viewing all the photos from like this vacation or that event and there's none I missed that are only in the camera roll.

Start up iTunes, and select Music, then click Songs.
Down at the bottom of the iTunes window, it will tell you how much space your library occupies.

How can you tell if a pic hasnt been tagged by iPhoto, and do you then do you then have to draw "missing box" around them
What I mean is tagged a few faces, imported some more pics, checked a few and they dont show as named faces, but are faces that are in my Faces source list (ie identified and named)
So do I then have to draw a box around known faces to me, and name them again (I think iPhoto will pop up as Im typing the names I already have)
It just means that even when i import and it doesnt name, I may have lots of pics that are of faces but not tagged and so not in my faces source list
please help
cheers
ps when are Apple going to upload the Getting Started manuals for iLife 09? its been a while since released now, ad they give a bit more insight than the video tutorials alone

No-one? It'll be nice to know how many pics of faces that arent yet tagged
cheers

How can you tell if a file is being used in your project or not?

How can you tell if a file in your bin is being used in your project or not? My director dragged hundreds of reference files into my project and only used a few of them. I'd like to do some house cleaning and delete the ones that are not in use. This project file has 100 sequences in it, so it would be a tough manual hunt to figure this out.
In Premiere Pro (or Flash for example), where all the information is in the Project Bin such as in/out times and duration, there is where it tells you how many times that piece of media has been used or if it hasn't been used yet.
Can FCP tell me this info?
Thanks for yout time!
-Monty

Monty,
Within FCP, there is a menu item called "Media Manager" (depending on what version you are in). This would be worth your while to look into. It basically organizes your project by moving/archiving any used assets of a project and leaving out un-used assets. It saves a ton of disk space.
For example, say you have a 5 minute clip with an in/out point that is just 30 seconds. Media Manager will "archive" just that 30 seconds, not the entire clip. There is even a setting that you can add additional "handles" time to the front andd back of the clip if you think you may need to add or change transition.
Do a google search. I was just watching a few Youtube videos on this myself.

How can you tell if your podcast is streaming or if you're playing from a download?

Yesterday I downloaded a podcast with the new Podcasts app on my iPhone. To play the podcast (while away from my WiFi), I tapped the episode in the Episodes list. I assumed I was playing the downloaded version. This morning, when I checked my data usage, it was 87MB more than it was yesterday! Does this mean that I inadvertently STREAMED the podcast instead? How can you tell?

This is the itunes forum. Your question seems to have nothing to do with itunes.
Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore. Try those.

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

How can you tell which cabinet you are connected t...

As the title says, how can you tell once installed.
the reason i ask is where i live there is only the bt-pcp and the drl-fttc cabinet and no others.
from what i heard is that both BT and DRL occupy the same fttc cabinet, and this would suggest so based on other information received.
yet from other information i'm hearing is that they don't and we're probably wired all the way back to the exchange which i would have thought was a bit odd seeing with 3 miles from exchange (as the crow flies).
so is it possible that they use the same cabs?

hi,
yeh am on infinity now and so far working fine
had one disconnection but thing that was caused by outage as took router a few attempts to re-connect, but other than that my pppoe has only dropped when made a change on router which required it to restart.
now been connected for 8 days without dropping (usually dropped every weekend when on DR) so continuing to monitor.
the engineer advised was connected via the cabinet in street, but only cabinets are the bt-pcp and the dr-fttc cabinets, and AFAIK BT and DR share the cabinet from what I've been previously told, but then someone else has said they won't do that and the connection is probably one that is underground if there is no bt-pcp.
i'll send Dean a message just so i know for future as i know the bt-pcp cabinet my number is connected too.
