I can import some songs from another computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Message says "...check connection to network..." Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?

Using home share, I can import some songs from my son's  computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id.  Err msg:"There was a problem downloading ... You do not have enouggh access privileges for this operation. Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."  The network appears to be fine .  I can import other songs from his library.  The same songs cause me a problem each time I try.  My husband had no trouble importing the same songs I have trouble with. I get the same error message if I try to import the same songs from my husbands computer as well.  "Command I" appears to show the same protections on both the songs I can import & the ones I cannot.  My husband and son are both running OS 10.6, while I am running 10.7.  I think I had this problem even before I upgraded, but I am not certain.

Welcome to Apple Discussions..
My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
Please post back and let me know how that goes.
Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:

Please don't hesitate to post back should you have further questions or comments, or with update.
Good luck.

  • My Apple G5 using operating system 10.6.8 keeps locking up. I get no warning or error message. I do get some intermittent screen distortion. Any ideas as to what could be causing this and how i get rid of this problem? Complete system re - install? N

    My mac keeps locking up it s Power mac G5 Intel using 10.6.8 OS.X. I get no warning or error messages it just locks up and the only way to get it to work again is to depress power button and restart. Its random intermittent and incredibly frustrating. I do get some screen distortion from time to time and wondered whether it may be a graphics card issue or whether it could be solved with a complete system re-install and OS upgrade?

    According to everymac.com, your Mac came with Tiger, 10.4.x and can't go any higher than Lion, 10.7.x.
    It would have come with gray, machine specific disks. Since there's no reason to install 10.4.x first, and then Snow Leopard over that, just purchase a retail copy of Snow Leopard for $20. What you won't get with the retail version of SL is the iLife suite (Garage Band, iDVD, etc.) that were on the original bundled disks, but you can purchase iLife on Amazon pretty cheap, and get newer versions besides.
    When you get Snow Leopard, you can boot to the DVD, erase the drive and install everything clean. Hopefully, you issue is only software, and not hardware related.

  • My iPad isn't working properly. When I try to connect to the internet or follow a link it shuts down and returns to the main screen. Any clue as to what could be causing this? Not my internet connection, I checked that.

    My iPad isn't working. I cannot follow a link in an email or connect to a game. It goes to a black screen then back to the main screen. Any idea what could be causing this?

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • After downloading the latest update, my playlists now go into shuffle mode everytime I try to play.  I have turn6ed off shuffle on both my computer and ipod, and even tried recreating a new list, to no avail.  Any ideas as to what may be causing this?

    After downloading the latest update for my Ipod touch, my playlists now go into "shuffle" mode everytime I try to play.  I have turned off shuffle on both itunes and my ipod and even tried recreating the playlist and syncing with no luck.  I don't know what is causing this, because before the last download, it never happened.  Any ideas on how to fix?

    Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed?  Is it the latest version?
    Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
    If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

  • I have an IPad 2. I "had" it synced to my Mac Os Laptop until my child bumped my glass of water on my laptop and destroyed my motherboard. Is there anyway that I can sync my IPad to another computer and not loose all of my apps and movies?

    Is there anyway that I can sync my iPad 2 to another computer without loosing all my data and apps?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer any other music by using a thrid-party porgram like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced items like apps and music.

  • My iPad keeps losing its network connection.  All of the other wireless devices in my house are fine.  Any ideas as to what may be causing this?

    I have an IPad 1 with 16 G of memory and wiFi only.  For the last 2 days it has been dropping off of the wireless network repeatedly.  I have a wireless laptop next to it that is fine.  I am working where I normally do and have had no problems until the last couple of days.  My other IPad works just fine and my macbook pro is also having no problems.  Does any one have any idea where to begin troubleshooting?

    Just a follow up with a successful ending, I think.
    Got the replacement iPad2. Synced it on itunes, put in my old SIM card, and tried it out. I was heartbroken when it had exactly the same problem with wifi connectivity! Dropped my home wifi connection every few minutes or seconds. Had to be prompted to find home network.
    Then I tried turning OFF "Ask to Join Networks" as suggested by another poster on Apple Support. Suddenly, I had steady wifi connectivity. I left it that way overnight and even when I woke it from hibernating, it was still connected to wifi!!
    Thinking I found the answer, I decided to go back to my original iPad2. I had previously used "Erase All Content and Settings" when I received the replacement iPad2 and so, had to Restore from my iTunes. After doing that, my original iPad2 now holds a wifi connection!! (And I did NOT turn off "Ask to Join Networks".)
    So was it fixed by my erasing all content and settings and then restoring it back? Maybe. I called Apple Support again and they did not have any answers or suggestions. They did say that turning off "Ask to Join Networks" would have no effect on connectivity but it did stop the iPad to keep prompting me to choose a network to join! 
    I would be interested if this "fix" works for anyone else because I see it is a fairly common complaint.

  • Logic Pro 8 crashes every time I press "record." What could be causing this?

    Hi,
    I have Logic Pro 8 and opened it today for the first time after updating to Snow Leopard. Logic opens just fine, but if I try to record an audio track it crashes almost immediately (I was just using the built-in microphone, nothing external). It doesn't crash if I record to a midi track. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? I went and updated to 8.0.2 and it still did the same thing. This never happened before. I'm wondering if it's related to using Snow Leopard?
    Thanks for any advice you might have!

    Hi,
    All your Creations should be fine...
    But just to be Safe, back them up to an External HD and save them as PROJECTS with ALL ASSETS...
    Just make sure to have the LP 8 Serial Number handy for when and if, you are asked for it during the Install...
    Also, after the Install, don't forget to Run Software Update to get the Latest version of LP 8...
    Cheers,

  • HT1296 I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the iPod directions on this page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the Autofill button. Can you help?

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.

  • I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files.  I keep getting the error "Copying files failed.  The file name was invalid or too long".  How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

    I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files.  I keep getting the error "Copying files failed.  The file name was invalid or too long".  How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

    BUMP
    Yes, I just get that message. I don't see how I could investigate this problem.
    I didn't mention that this happened when I was consolidating my library, not copying files to another computer.
    In other words, I'm using a "normal" itunes procedure, itunes won't complete it, and won't tell me exactly why or how to figure out how to fix it...
    Is there at least some easy way to tell which files were successfully copied to my itunes music folder so I can work on moving the uncopied files?
    Can anybody help me?

  • Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).

    Hi,
    Our Environment is Essbase 11.1.2.2 and working on Essbase EAS and Shared Services components.One of our user tried to run the Cal Script of one Application and faced this error.
    Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
    I have done some Google and found that we need to add something in Essbase.cfg file like below.
    1012704 Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than number ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry (a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
    Possible Problems
    Analytic Services could not lock enough blocks to perform the calculation.
    Possible Solutions
    Increase the number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate for a calculation:
    Set the maximum number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate to at least 500. 
    If you do not have an $ARBORPATH/bin/essbase.cfg file on the server computer, create one using a text editor.
    In the essbase.cfg file on the server computer, set CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH to 500.
    Stop and restart Analytic Server.
    Add the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH command to the beginning of the calculation script.
    Set the data cache large enough to hold all the blocks specified in the CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH setting. 
    Determine the block size.
    Set the data catche size.
    Actually in our Server Config file(essbase.cfg) we dont have below data  added.
    CalcLockBlockHigh 2000
    CalcLockBlockDefault 200
    CalcLockBlocklow 50
    So my doubt is if we edit the Essbase.cfg file and add the above settings and restart the services will it work?  and if so why should we change the Server config file if the problem is with one application Cal Script. Please guide me how to proceed.
    Regards,
    Naveen

    Your calculation needs to hold more blocks in memory than your current set up allows.
    From the docs (quoting so I don't have to write it, not to be a smarta***:
    CALCLOCKBLOCK specifies the number of blocks that can be fixed at each level of the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH | DEFAULT | LOW calculation script command.
    When a block is calculated, Essbase fixes (gets addressability to) the block along with the blocks containing its children. Essbase calculates the block and then releases it along with the blocks containing its children. By default, Essbase allows up to 100 blocks to be fixed concurrently when calculating a block. This is sufficient for most database calculations. However, you may want to set a number higher than 100 if you are consolidating very large numbers of children in a formula calculation. This ensures that Essbase can fix all the required blocks when calculating a data block and that performance will not be impaired.
    Example
    If the essbase.cfg file contains the following settings:
    CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH 500  CALCLOCKBLOCKDEFAULT 200  CALCLOCKBLOCKLOW 50 
    then you can use the following SET LOCKBLOCK setting commands in a calculation script:
    SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH; 
    means that Essbase can fix up to 500 data blocks when calculating one block.
    Support doc is saying to change your config file so those settings can be made available for any calc script to use.
    On a side note, if this was working previously and now isn't then it is worth investigating if this is simply due to standard growth or a recent change that has made an unexpected significant impact.

    No you will not lose any data. However a pop up will come up telling you if you want to sync with this computer, and that if you do, that it will erase the data. Just click "No" and you can still update your phone. I've done this a few times.
