I don't want to listen to EVERY podcast in my library
It seems that to download new podcast episodes. I have to listen to the oldest one on my computer/ipod so it can download the latest episode. Sometimes I go weeks without listening to podcasts on my itunes or ipod because I listen to them straight from their website. So when I do want to listen to a podcast on my ipod, its from a month ago. Does anyone know how to overcome this problem? A really difficult way to solve it that i found was play every podcast that i haven't listened to and move the timer to the right so that i can get the newest episode.
Thank You,
Will

have iTunes Match, but some of the music I loaded from CDs and I can see in the iTunes store won't play. It recognizes the album but is playing literally the only 3 songs I don't want to listen to.
How do I get to play all of my music that should be stored either on the computer or in the cloud?Hi,
Initially your music should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Once match completes its scan, your music will have been matched or uploaded. I suggest that you add iCloud status column to song view. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, inelligible, duplicate or waiting. What is the status of your tracks that are not playing.
If space is not an issue, I suggest that you keep the music on the internal hard drive otherwise you can delete the tracks and play from cloud. In both instances, you should maintain a back up of all your music on a separate hard drive.

When i try to add music from itunes to my ipod, Itune tells me the music on my ipod came from a differnt libray and wants to erase my whole ipod. i just loaded my ipod two days ago. i don't want to replace everything every time i want to add two to songs. My MacBook Pro is the only autherized computer.
To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place and you will be able to change your settings.

I don't want Firefox to launch every time my computer starts
Every time I restart my computer Firefox launches. How do I disable this? I don't want Firefox to launch ever time my computer reboots. Firefox is not my default browser. Safari is.
See:
*http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#tutorial=startup - Open Applications Automatically on Startup
* Control-click on its Dock icon and uncheck 'Open at Login'
Or:
* Click Accounts (in the System row of the System Preferences window)
** Click the Login Items tab
** Click on Firefox in the list
** Click the Minus (-) button -
My routine for years: download all new episodes of all the podcasts I subscribe to (a pretty big list!). I then delete the new episodes that don't particularly interest me. But now, with iTunes 11.1, any podcast episodes that I delete will download again - and if I delete them, they download again. And so on. I don't mean they're just appearing in the list with the little cloud icon: I mean they're moving on to my computer. (Note that this only seems to be happening with podcast episodes that have been added since the update to 11.1 - thank goodness it's not happening to all of them!)
Probably related: if I want to keep a podcast episode, I've always just changed the tags to "Audiobook" or "Music", so I can get it out of the Podcast panes. But now, if I do that, the episode downloads again (despite the retagged version existing elsewhere in iTunes), and I delete it again, and back into that loop.
What seems to fix this: I can mark the redundantly downloaded episode as played, and then delete. This requires a lot of clicks with my current workflow: mark as played in the "Unplayed" list, at which point they of course disappear from the list; then find the episodes somewhere else (no longer easy with the obnoxious "Show us EVERYTHING!" podcast list view), and erase them once again. If need be, I guess I could set up a smart playlist to make this easier, but this looks like a pretty obnoxious kludge for something that used to be quite straightforward.
But am I missing something? How can I easily delete a podcast episode that I don't want, without it redownloading again later? For episodes that I want to retag and keep, is there a way to stop them from redownloading?
EDIT: Oops. No, I was wrong. If I mark it as played, and then delete it, the episode STILL comes back. It downloads yet again. What on earth am I doing wrong?!per your recommendation, I have sent the feedback below to apple...
For my Podcasts, I have exclusively used the "List" view to manage my podcast library... which one to download, save, or delete. The new update to iTunes has made the "List" view unusable in completing these tasks.
Can you address this issue? Right now my list view is filled with previously heard & deleted podcasts. I like to use this view rather than going to a different sheet for each podcast to which I've subscribed to manage.
Please help. Please revert the "List" view to be managed as before. Thank you.
Hopefully Apple will be responsive. -
ICloud gave me an album i don't want to listen to and have never heard
Hi, i was on my laptop this morning, and I saw an album called "Songs Of Innocence" by "U2", I have NEVER heard of this band or whatever, i deleted the album as normal with Right-click and delete on my laptop, but when I slide the toggle for "Show All Music" that album keeps popping up, if anyone can teach me how to delete that stupid album permanently (i dont want to see it when i turn on "Show Alll Music") i'll be grateful, i've lived an OCD music lifestyle, my songs have been fixed (removing the songs i don't like) for over 2 years, my music library shouldnt show this album when i turn on "Show All Music", please help, losing my nerves and patience, thanks, i have an iPhone 4s, 16gb Black, it seemed to have happened after the Keynote of the IPhone 6 and 6+, I don't know if apple were giving it away but i dont want an album that completely ruins my song library, i dont want to see this album whenever i turn "show all music"
It was a gift from Apple to all iTunes subscribers. You can't delete if from your purchased list (even though you didn't technically buy it), but you can hide it so you don't have to see it anymore as explained here: iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

Don't delete your old account yet. Just setup a new one in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, little plus icon. Choose IMAP as account type, not ,mac or MobileMe.

How do I remove the passcode from my phone? I don't want to enter it every time.
Please help
Martha,
Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>Enter your Passcode>Turn Passcode Off.
Personally speaking, I would advise against turning it off. Entering it every time is a small price to pay for your security. -

HT1473 Can I delete any song from iPod shuffle I decide I don't want to listen to?
Husband doesn't like all the songs I down loaded for his iPod touch. Can I delete any of these?
Hello Queen131,
The iPod Touch can be set to 'manual mode,' which will allow for specific control over which songs are synced to the device, and allows for specific tracks to be removed.

Okay, as soon as I sent this I figured out where Google search is!
The desktop, the mail, all webpages. I know there used to be a way to fix this in preferences but now cannot find it.
Also my home page will no longer open (BBC America).
I found the Safari Search option (should have been obvious!) But on other hand, do not understand why tool bar keeps disappearing - aah, just another of life's mysteries (until I figure it out!). -
I have been preparing photos for export and found some have a thumbnail but no image, only the exclamation mark upon selection. I have restored three 'broken' thumbnails via Time Machine. I want to indentify all the broken thumbnails so I can choose which to restore and also find them quickly in Time Machine. The only way I currently know is to select each thumbnail, individually, and see if it brings up the exclamation mark 'image'. Is there a way to find only the 'broken' thumbnails?
ThanksI went to TM and "Browse Other Backup Disks", selected the USB drive used for TM, browsed for the most recent backup and, one by one, copied each of the folders within /Users/NAME in the TM backup to /Users/NAME on the freshly installed MBP hard drive. The folders I'm referring to are Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Movies, Music, Pictures, Public. I overwrote the existing (empty) folders.
That's not how you restore. Might work for other material (pure fluke that,) but iPhoto is a database and the back up is stored in increments. Time Machine needs to reassemble it from the increments.
Enter the Time Machine interface, go to the Pictures Folder. Locate the iPhoto Library you want to restore and click restore.

Ever since the january upgrade came out, every time I connect my touch it brings up the apple store page asking me to buy the upgrade. I don't want it. But every time I click "No thanks", "An error occured. the iTunes store could not process your request, please try again later".
