HT203175 I don't know whether these articles apply or not.  Here's what I seeing in my iTunes program.  When I open iTunes, I see little exclamation points next to EVERY song that has been downloaded.  Therefore, I can't play them from my computer or dwnl

Can somebody help me get rid of these exclamation points so that I can download all my songs to my iPod?  Please?  I don't know why they appeared, as I did have the songs working before and they were on my iPod.  But, I didn't want ALL of them on there and I didn't know I could "select" which songs to send to the iPod.  However, it's been a few months since I messed with it.  But, yesterday, when I went to select my songs, I noticed all these excalamation points on everything that was there.  Help, please!  Again, I can't play them from my computer AND they won't download to my iPod!
Thanks,

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

  • TS4124 I have a problem that when I sync my ipod with I tunes it only syncs the songs that have been downloaded from the cloud.

    I have 9000 songs in the cloud and have not downloaded all of them
    My ipod does not sync the songs that have not been downloaded.
    Do i have to download all the playlists individually?

    Here's how iTunes works.  You add a file to iTunes. iTunes makes a note of where that file is located, gets information from it about artist, etc, and writes the information to its library file.  iTunes doesn't look at that file again until you play it.  It knows where to find it when it needs it.  However, sometimes things happen so the file is no longer where iTunes expects it to be.  In many cases this is because the user has renamed  a file or folder in the file's pathway, or moved the file.  In extreme cases it can happen because a hard drive is dying.
    When iTunes invites you to find the file, it is asking you to do exactly that.  If you renamed the file you need to remember what you called it and where you put it and point to it to rebuild the link.  Sometimes if people move all their files to  different drive you need to point to one and iTunes may be able to find others given that information and assumptions as to where the others should be located relative to that.
    It is also possible files have gone missing.  In that case you need to restore them from their original source  or a backup you make regularly of your computer knowing that some day it is 100% guaranteed your drive will fail and you will be very happy you have a copy of everything on another drive.

  • Upgrade to iOS7.1 has broken Music. . .can't play songs in the cloud and songs that have been downloaded won't play either.

    I've discovered an interesting "feature" of iOS7.1 for the iPad (4th gen). 
    Since upgrading, I can no longer play music that is in the cloud and when trying to switch to a song that has been downloaded to the device, it won't play either; however, the equilizer graphic indicates that something is playing (bouncing up and down) but the song position indicator stays at 0:00.
    Eventually, iTunes/Music (not sure what to call it these days since Apple can't seem to decide either) gives up on the song selected, the on that is not playing, and moves to the next song.  If the next song is local to the device, music plays, if it's another song in the cloud, the pattern repeats until it hits a downloaded song.  Have also discovered, after my various and simple testing efforts, that I can no longer download songs from the cloud - I was able to download one song but afer that. . .kaput. 
    It takes a special level of brilliance to send out an update that breaks your own applications/code. . .particularly one so core to the device. 
    Two words for future releases. . ."Quality Assurance". 

    I had a similar problem. Try resetting and erasing the phone and restoring from a known good backup.

    i don`t know whether it`s locked or not and i don`t know what`s the network in china as well.
    Can somebody please help？
    I am really in a hurry to know it.
    Thanks a lot.
    P.S: For the iphone 4S. is there any difference for the one from online shop or the actual store?

    iPhones purchased from the online Apple Store in Australia will be unlocked. To the best of my knowledge, unlocked iPhone are not available from the physical Apple Stores at this time, though you can call the Apple Store in Melbourne and inquire.
    Note that the warranty on iPhones is not international, so if you purchase an iPhone in Australia and it needs service, you would have to ship the iPhone to someone in Australia to take or send to Apple for service and then ship it back to you.

  • Payroll Error msg "The gross wages do not cover the negative offset that has been forwarded, therefore, no grossup is permitted".

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting the below error msg while running payroll for an US employee.
    "The gross wages do not cover the negative offset that has been forwarded; therefore, no grossup is permitted."
    I am getting this error msg just after USTAX function processing part of UTX0 subschema. I am highlighting below facts & findings for your reference.
    As per a client requirement,  I have configured a new gross up WT (ER benefit contribution) for a benefit plan (IT 0168) and the changes are in QAS system. The changes have to be reflected in period 20/2014 (4th May'14- 10th May'14) with retro effective 01/01/2014 as per the benefit plan record maintained from 01/01/2014.
    This error msg is coming only for few employees. In my example, when I am running payroll in period 20/2014 with forced retro as 01/01/2014, system is giving error in period 14/2014 (23rd Mar'14-29th Mar'14). When I checked the pay result of this employee for period 14/2014, I can see the /101 is in -ve value and there is claim generated for this period. So I think, eventhough, a value of $ 2.53 is getting added as per the IT 0168 record, its not helping to give a +ve gross value and thus tax is not able to recoved on the same.
    I hope you have come across this issue and can help me to assist to resolve the error msg.
    Regards,
    Prakash  

    If you have correctly configured payroll the system should automatically off set that and should create wage tyes /561 or /563 in RT.

  • HT4914 Will iTunes match match songs that have been downloaded using a different audible account?

    Will iTunes match match songs that have been downloaded using a different audible account?

    Hey there Chriskir,
    It sounds like you would like to delete all the songs from your iPad but still be able to access them in iTunes Match. You can delete all the songs from the Music section of your Usage in Settings by swiping your music left:

  • How to download an app *not* from icloud that has been downloaded before with a different account?

    Greetings,
    If an app has been downloaded before even with an account other than the one I am signed in with, it shows the cloud icon and asks me for the password of the other account.
    How do I download it with the account I am currently logged in with?
    Thanks

    "I'm using the one on the computer, not the device."
    Well I said this is happening on an iPad. Reread what is happening from the beginning of the thread, and tell me if the instructions are correct for the iPad. Are you prompted for passwords from a different account that previously downloaded the app on the iPad?
    Again
    The app is Google Search.
    It is free.
    (I am always promoted for passwords for both free and paid apps.)
    The device is an iPad. That is why I posted this is the iPad discussion.
    I am logged in with my account, let's call it A. It shows account A next to Apple ID in the lower left of the Featured page.
    When I search for Google Search, and click the cloud download icon next next to the Google Search app, it prompts me for the password to a different account. Let's call it B.
    In the app store it shows a cloud download icon next to every app that has ever been downloaded on this iPad, regardless of whether it is account A, B, C, etc
    Have you tried logging in with a different account to test this?

  • Does an adobe reader read the Adobe acrobat document that has been downloaded from a web site

    I am having trouble opening anything that has been downloaded into a adobe acrobat document . I am wondering if I am suppose to have an Adobe reader to read it and why is it not  being read because it is not a supported file type or because  the file was damaged sent as an email attachment  and wasn't correctly decoded. I am not very computer illiterate and don't understand what I need to be able to get a embroidery designed sent to my computer and be able to open it up.?

    Hi Adpdfacct808,
    PDF is the document standard that you are trying to read. If you have Acrobat installed then you can open the pdf with Acrobat to read it.
    What error do you get when you try to open the document?

  • I want to use icloud but i have a lot of music on itunes that has been downloaded from elsewhere on the internet. Will i be able to access this on icloud if it has not be bought through itunes?

    I want to use icloud but i have a lot of music on itunes that has been downloaded from elsewhere on the internet. Will i be able to access this on icloud if it has not be bought through itunes?

    Not on iCloud itself - what you need is 'iTunes Match' which seeks to find versions in the Store of songs you already have, and failing that allows you to upload your own copies. This will cost you $24.99 per year; it does not count towards your 5GB free iCloud space. Limit 25,000 songs (purchased songs do not count towards this limit). You will need iTunes 10.5.1 or later on your Mac or PC and iOS 5.0.1 or later on your iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), or iPad.
    Please see this page: http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
    Also note that some people have found that when using this facility with songs which contain strong language, iTunes Match is substituting a cleaned-up version.

  • TV show that has been downloaded but Apple TV streams it anyway.

    When I go to watch a TV show that has been downloaded to my iTunes library, Apple TV streams it, instead of playing off my iTunes downloaded file. Is this how it works? I expect that if I download a purchase, that Apple TV would instantly play the local file, and not bother with streaming. Is this something I can correct with a preference config or some digital voodoo?

    Speednet always clocks me at 20-23Mbps, just checked it. ALL my internet functions seem to work well. Apple TV has no problems streaming, Netflix, Hulu, or iTunes radio. I can play any of my iTunes music library with the Apple TV remote. I have also watched two streaming episodes from Apple TV. Additonally, some DVD's that I had ripped to iTunes will play from my iTunes library on Apple TV. My only problem seems to be purchased TV. They show up in iTunes, they show up on Apple TV, both in the TV shows>Purchased pathway, and in the Computers>my iTunes library>TV shows pathway. They just don't seem to play when try the computer>iTunes route.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • The instagram icon on my iTunes says it has been downloaded but I can't seem to find it. Where do I find it?

    The instagram icon on my iTunes says it has been downloaded but I can't seem to find it. Where do I find it?

    Hi Charlene1018,
    You can locate any of your iTunes media including apps in Finder by following this article:
    Where are my iTunes files located?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    Locating the file for an item you see in iTunes
    If you're not sure where some of the content you see in iTunes is stored, iTunes will also show you what it knows about your media in the Get Info window.
    Select an item in iTunes and choose File > Get Info.
    You can right-click on the 'Where' to get the option to Show in Finder (Mac OS X) or Show in Windows Explorer (Windows).
    Cheers!

  • TS1292 My pin number had been already use? I bought a $10 card and it appears that has been used. How can i solve this?

    Hi!!
    My pin number had been already use? I bought a $10 pin number and it appears that has been used.
    How can i solve this?
    I already speak with a representative of the provider company and they told me to contact Itunes or apple to solve this.
    Help me please!!
    I cant neither pay with my Master card debit and now with a pin.

    From where did you buy this "PIN"? And did you get an actual card, or did they just send you a number? If you got only a number, then you may well have been defrauded. You'll need to go back to whoever sold you this "PIN" to resolve the problem. Apple to the best of my knowledge does not authorize any company to provide codes rather than a physical card and hence probably cannot help you if you did not get a physical iTunes card or receive a gift certificate issued by the iTunes Store themselves.
    Regards.
