I can't access half of my downloaded music. I get a message, "can't locate file" What is up with that? I dauthorized my computer and reloaded itunes, but it did not solve the problem. Any suggestions? Thank you.

I can't access half of my downladed music. I get a message, "can't locate file." I dauthorized my computer and reloaded itunes, but it did not help. Any suggestions? Thank you.

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 .

  • After upgrading to IOS 5.1.1 the Wi-Fi selection in settings greyed out and now says No Wi-Fi.  Have tried restting and restoring both from te phone and from Itunes but this does not solve the problem.

    I recently upgraded my Iphone 4s to 5.1.1 and founf the Wi-Fi button in settings greyed out saying No Wi-Fi.  I have tried Reset network Settings, Rest All Settings and restore in Itunes but to no avail.  I understand this is a comon occurence but I cant find a solution to it.  Can anybody help?

    See this tip --> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    If this doesn't resolve it you most likely have a hardware failure. Fortunately, your phone is in warranty, so if you take it to an Apple store they will replace it.

    You don't want the songs to finish at the end?
    Or do you mean the songs stop before they are at the actual end of the song?
    Have you tried redownloading them?
    Select iTunes store in iTunes.
    Click Purchased New on the right side under Quick Links.

  • TS3276 Web through this step-by-step, but alas it did not solve the problem. For some reason I can download mail on my Macbook Pro, but no my iMac. Connection Doctor shows all green lights.

    Went through this step-by-step, but alas it did not solve the problem. For some reason I can download mail on my Macbook Pro and iPhone, but no my iMac. Connection Doctor shows all green lights. This started today when I was prompted to re-enter incoming mail server passwords. I re-entered passowrds yet again to make sure they were correct. Rebuilt the inBox. Connection Doctor continues to show all green lights, but am still unable to download mail to the inbox. Has anyone else ever run into this problem?

    I have the exact same problem trying to use the Remote app on both my iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 with either my Mac or ATV2.  My Remote app used to work on my phone - I can't recall if I ever actually used it with my iPad, but when I tried today, I got all the same results as you did (on both iPad, and then iPhone).  I  was using my ATV2 to play music from iTunes on my Mac and wanted to use the Remote app, but it would not connect to either device no matter what I did. 

  • I cannot shut dow my MacBook Pro using the apple icon (as it was suppose to be), actually I have to press and hold the on/off buttom. I have taken twice for Mac dealer and they did not solve the problem. What must I do?

    I cannot shut dow my MacBook Pro using the apple icon (as it was suppose to be), actually I have to press and hold the on/off buttom. I have taken twice for Mac dealer and they did not solve the problem. What must I do? I would to remark that I have installed 2 antivirus and uninstalled one of them. Since then I have facing this troublesome issue. Thanks

    Uninstall the other AV software. They are not needed. All they do is cause trouble like you are having now.
    If you have been forcing the Mac to shut down with the power switch you may nave corrupted your disk. You should repair it with disk Utilty to remove any corruption the shutdwons may have cased.

  • I have recently upgraded my iMac to 10.6.8 and now find that the upload photo to Facebook facility no longer works. I have reset Safari but this has not resolved the issue - any suggestions?

    I have recently upgraded my iMac to 10.6.8 and now find that the upload photo to Facebook facility no longer works. I have reset Safari but this has not resolved the issue - any suggestions? I can click on the "upload photos/video" field and it takes me to Finder to select the photo - but on selecting the photo, the Finder screen disappears as normal but from then on nothing happens.

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    Now empty the Safari cache.
    Back to the menu bar, click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
    Quit and relaunch Safari then try Facebook.
    If that doesn't help, it may be a Safari extension preventing you from uploading content to Facebook.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help.

    My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.

    By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
    If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
    I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!

  • HT1689 I can reach the iTunes Store from my iPod Touch, but it will not open on my PC running Windows 7.  Message shows that iTunes has stopped working.  This happens every time.  I have updated iTunes Software.  Will not solve the problem.  What is wrong

    I have uninstalled iTunes several times and reinstalled it on my PC running Window 7 with all updated loaded.  When I click on the iTunes Store Box, Nothing happens except for a message that reads:
              iTunes has stopped working.
    The following items give me a choice, but no answer comes up.  The computer will shut down the website.
              "Check online for a solution and close the program"
              "Close the program."
    There is an item below the box that is selectable for View problem details.  When clicked a long list of items show up.  I have listed some of the problems as written, but I do not understand them.  I know the iTunes Store has been available on earlier versions of of iTunes but is not on this version.  How can we go back and download an earlier version of iTunes?
         Here are some of the Problem Details:
         "Problem signature:  APPCRASH
         Application Name:     iTunes.exe
         Application Version:  11.0.1.12
         Application Timestamp:  50c8fc7e"

    I had this exact same problem.  I found this fix and it worked for me. 
    Step 1:
    Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll. 
    Step 2:
    Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
    Hope this helps you.  I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
    Good Luck.

  • I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

    Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

    Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk.  It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

  • Firmware update 7.6.4 did not solve the problem that causes a loss intermittently in Wi-Fi connectivity with devices from PCs. Any suggestions?

    I am having difficulties with my Time Capsule continually dropping.

    Just wireless?
    Do other devices stay up? Is it only the PC's that fail.. or anything else that can help us.
    Has this always been a problem since you got the TC? Or was it only on the previous firmware and this latest one, 7.6.4?
    How long have you owned the Gen4 TC?
    Are you using SMB compatible names for wireless.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Different name for 5ghz...
    And manually fixing the wireless channels. Just to see if those things help??

  • I have tried to get my radio feature to work and it does not.  I followed some advice from this forum on a related question and performed the "settings reset," but this has not solved the problem.  I have icon, headphones, still no reception

    Has anyone else had this problem that just got one?  This is a christmas gift and I was attempting to explore the radio feature and discovered the issue.  Do we have this feature or not??  Thanks for any insight anyone can give.  Thanks and Happy New Year!! 

    You are not pushing the headphones all the way in. Make sure the white plastic is flush with the iPod.

  • Adobe Media Encoder only using single core of CPU (core parking has already been disabled and did not solve the problem)

    I only edit videos every few months and the last time I edited a video was around 6-9 months ago.  At that time, I noticed AME was only using a single core of the CPU and contacted Adobe who instructed me to disable core parking, which worked.  After disabling core parking AME used 100% of all 12 logical cores to process the video and all was good.  Then last week, I decided to edit another video and noticed AME was very slow and checked and it was again only using a single core to process the video, but core parking is still turned off.  By slow I mean that a 10 minute video with the lens distortion correction preset and one video transition effect is estimated to take nearly 3 hours to complete.  For comparison, the GoPro software processed the same clip with the same effects in 20 minutes.  Also, through troubleshooting with Adobe over the last few days, I have also tried downloading previous versions of the software but the prior versions have the same issue.
    The video I'm trying to edit was shot on a GoPro Hero 4 Black with 1080p Wide at 60 frames per second.  The default video format for GoPro is .mp4.   The output settings I'm using when I export from Premiere Pro to AME are H.264 with the YouTube 1080p HD.
    My system:
    ASUSSabertooth X79
    Intel core i7 4930k (6 physical cores, 12 logical cores)
    16GB DDR3 Quad channel RAM
    Samsung 830 SSD 128GB
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 (not CUDA compatible, I know)
    Please ask if you need any additional information to help solve this problem.

    This has been driving me CRAZY... so going over the message boards from 2 to 5 am this morning I found the best explanation I have seen.   The problem is that Adobe Creative Cloud is NOT "Processor Group Aware".  Windows parses any more than 36 cores into "Processor Groups" and while the Pro version of Windows 7 & 8 can handle 256 threads they have to spread them across multiple processor groups.
    Simple Version:  AREA | How many cores does 3ds Max support?
    Microsoft's Explanation:  Processor Groups (Windows)
    Clearly, this is an Adobe Problem... If any engineers are reading this PLEASE review the below and incorporate it into your next build of Creative Cloud!!!

  • Attempt to use attachment uploader has frozen ability to create new e-mail as "TO" command respond and resetting Firefox to default does not solve the problem

    Previously, selecting "attach" worked fine. How do I undo the so-called better way to make attachments??

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Internal error 500 keeps coming up when I open Firefox. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, but that did not solve the problem. How can I fix this error

    a message of 500 internal error comes up when I open up Firefox and I cannot do anything. How can this problem be solved? I cannot use Firefox, so I have uninstalled it because it does in work on my computer, but it does work on my desktop and other laptop. This is a new computer, so I am not understanding why this problem is occurring. When I first installed Firefox on my new laptop it worked just fine, but for about a week now it will not work.

    Which security software (firewall) do you have?
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
