I used to be able to change track & artist names & other song info in "View" / "Info"; can no longer do
I used to be able to change track & artist names & other song info in "View" / "Info" (or Command I) but can no longer do. The info shows up "greyed". It seems to be on tracks from CDs I imported or downloaded from sources several years ago (pre Gracenotes).
Any suggestions on how to fix?
Thanks!
I'm having a similar issue. I just downloaded new songs and I can't edit the information or artwork because they are all greyed out. I didn't have that problem until I upgraded to iTunes 11!

I just started using my IPod and I downloaded my library. I accidently changed the artist names for an entire genre category and I can't undo it. I read all the edit help stuff and I either can't select items to edit or I'm an idiot and I can't figure it out. I keep trying and I get a pop up that asks me if I want to change multiple items.
Did you ever resolve the iCloud problem.I am in the same position and its driving me mad!!! If you have a link to an solution I would appreciate it.

There were deveral other options on the menu like send link etc
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
I would like to change my back ground color in one frame for a logo that i am using I am able to change it on the canvas but not on the timeline?
Are you using FCPX? It doesn't have a canvas. Do you really mean one frame, like 1/30th of a second? Add a custom generator underneath the logo. Make it whatever color you want. Make it however short you want.

Hi Guys does anyone know of a way i can get cyclops speed camera alert to work through bluetooth incar hands free kit , i used to be able to connect it via an app called drivesafely but this app is no longer available in apple store ????????????
I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems. -

when editing info, how do i select multiple items to edit a group? For example, changing the artist name on multiple tracks at once?
Same way you select multipl items anywhere else.
Hold ctrl and click the items you want.
If they are in consecutive order, click the 1st then Shift click the last. -
iTunes 12.1.050 - Rollback: Updated from 12.01, now I cant't change track numbers and add additional data fields. How can I roll back to the previous version? @Apple, I want a $100 gift card for the inconvenience.
- it's all said in the title. I can't understand why the developers turn things bad ... risking loosing Apples valuable customers.
More examples needed? (check out the communities and the reviews)
- OSX: Maverick to Yosemite = not recommended (check it out > http://roaringapps.com/apps)
- iPad: older versions as iPad2 should not upgrade to iOS7/8 (it's not supporting its hardware accordingly, it's designed for the latest hardware)
- iTunes (it's possible to rollback to 10.7 - 11.4, but you need to breech OSX system security framework)
- Pages (was a real alternative for many of us, each update reduced features and created incompatibility to older work files)
The list could easily extend to ...You can offer Apple feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Why can't I share my iCal diary anymore with my work colleagues? I used to be able to send a link so the calendar could be viewed in any browser be it PC or Mac platform??
Ordinary webspace won't do - what you get is a text file: this is the problem - MobileMe took the file published by iCal and formatted it as a calendar. Presumably if you were running your own server as indicated in the help page it would do the same; but unless 1&1 can speficially provide you with a CalDAV server it's not going to work.
Do your colleagues have Macs? For those who do, they can subscribed to a shared calendar in iCal and it couldn't be simpler. Presumably Windows owners could do the same thing in a suitable calendar program; and this is a lot simpler solution.
Another route: according to this site:
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/publish-ical-calendars-mobileme-os-server-mac/
box.net can do this for you. I seem to remember that this arose a while back, but I have a feeling that the poster then couldn't get it to work. I can't advise on that, but you might want to investigate it as an option. -
I used to be able to print from my iPad, but it has stopped, however I can still print from my iPod, any ideas?
Re-booting Pad, router and printer seems to have solved the problem!

Used to be able to save images from webpages but now with IOS 5, I can only save to reading list?
Used to be able to save images from webpages but now with IOS 5, I can only save to reading list even when viewing a page whose images I could save as an image when using the previous OS.
Are you using the YouTube widget in iWeb? If so it doesn't work any more. Not since MobileMe was discontinued.
You need to get the full embed code from YouTube and use the standard HTML snippet.

Changed the artist name of all of my iTunes library by mistake
Found an album that listed the artist name as mixed. I selected the songs in that album to change the artist name and wound up setting the artist name for all of the songs in my library to that one artist. I was able to recover from a time machine backup, but the information on the cloud using iTunes match is not correct. I have since then signed out of my account until I hear back from Apple. Any clues? No undo.....
Backup drive?
Subscribe to iTunes Match?
If neither of the above and you don't have the CD and can't find your tracks on the computer then they you're stuck. A file recovery utility will cost $100, plus another $100 for an external drive to which to resue the files, and may not even work. You can buy a lot of CDs for $200. -
These were all songs I had ripped from old CDs, lot of which, I no longer have. I can't remember that artists' names for all these songs. They are all "oldies" from the fifties and I just accidentally changed the artist for all them to Fats Domino. I'd had them all highlighted because I had done a batch change of their genre to Oldies. I couldn't tell that they were all still highlighted after that change because I could only see two of the songs at the time that I changed the artist name. Is there any possible way to undo this? All the tracks are still highlighted from the naming operation. I can't search for the artists' names online because I didn't purchase them from iTunes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I found one other way to do it. I just deleted them all out of my iTunes library. Now I can re-import them from Window's My Music file with the original artists' names intact.
Thanks for your help, Matt! -
