In genius, it says: Genius is unavailable for the song...
Then, underneath, it says "Choosing Update Genius from the Store menu will update your genius results. If after updating, iTunes is still unable to create a genius playlist from this song or artist, please choose another one.
The point is, that no matter what song or what artist I choose, even after updating, this message still pops up!
Thanks to the tip from squane about repopulating the library, GENIUS IS WORKING AGAIN!
It does seem to be related to having started iTunes Match. My guess would be the songs that did not make it to the cloud may be the culprit, but I'm not sure.
The steps are a little involved, but here's what I did:
1) Go through the iTunes Match process
2) Click the cloud icon in the sort bar at the top of itunes
3) Select all the songs that were matched (if you're like me, you'll have about 50 songs/booklets that did not make it to the cloud for various reason -- so it's important not to select these at this point).
4) Delete, and, of course, do not select "also delete this song from the cloud" (I'm doing this because I have a MacBook Air with an SSD drive, so I can't afford the space to have my 94 GB of songs on my drive).
If you haven't tried this before (only keeping the cloud version), you might try it with one song just to test. After the local version is gone, you still see the song but you need to be connected to the net to listen to it.
Now, all your songs, except the ones that did not make it to the cloud, are off your local drive.
5) For all the things you want to keep, but did not make it to the cloud, I right clicked on each item, selected "Show in Finder", and dragged it to a folder on my desktop so that I'm sure not to lose it in subsequent steps.
6) Quit itunes
7) Go to your Music/iTunes folder
8) Delete all files that begin with iTunes (so iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Music Library.xml, * Extras.itdb, * Genius.itdb)
I'd recommend backing up these files somewhere before deletion just in case...
9) Restart iTunes
10) Turn on Match
11) Turn on/update Genius
At least for me, this process fixed Genius being unavailable for any song I tried, even those songs that were the basis of previous Genius song lists that I have saved. It still shows as unavailable for certain songs like before, but all the songs it previously worked for work again.

Genius is unavailable for the song ...
SInce late in 2010 my iTunes does not seem to be able to use any new music that I have imported to create a Genius. Older, previously imported, songs work fine (if they are recognized by the store, etc) but the new ones do not. Have have tried: reset Genius several times, deleted the XML files, deleted cookies from Safari (I did not move the entire folder out however) and still I get the following message:
"Geniue is unavailable for the song "Song Name Here".
Choosing Update Genius from the store menu will update your Genius results. If, after updating, iTunes is still unable to create a Genius playlist from this song or artist, please choose another one. "
Anyone have any ideas?There are a couple of other threads by people who seem to be having the same problem:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3000658
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2744045
Genius is not making playlists out of songs released after April 2010. Maybe try calling Apple Support? I haven't had any luck so far but maybe if enough people call they will understand it's such a big problem. -
ITunes keeps saying iPhone not eligible for the requested build
iTunes keeps saying iPhone not eligible for the requested build after downloading the update directly through itunes with the lateset version of itunes.
Here are some suggestions for your error message, copied from
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw. -
I downloaded two albums yesterday and only half of each of the songs have downloaded when I play them. There is nothing to say it is waiting for the rest to download and I have checked for available downloads...help please!
no, i had to leave so i logged out and when i opened itunes on my mac and went into the downloads tab it only had one paused download listed. i resumed the download for the one movie listed and the other one never showed up. its been about two weeks since i initially bought the two movies so i figured something was wrong.

I am trying to reinstall Lion after erasing my hard drive. Erase went smoothly, but now when I try to reinstall, after prompted to enter my Apple ID and pw, it says "Item temporarily unavailable from the App store. Please try again later." HelP!l
Sometimes there are just server problems with the App Store. Only thing that I can offer is to wait a day or so and try again and, if still no luck, contact the App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
Good luck,

Where do I look for the security key when I download an item. Your website says your key is 0xD0261077?
Your question is somewhat terse, and I might infer you're conflating the PGP key used for Apple security-related email communications with cryptographic hashes (message digests) used to verify the integrity and the origin of files, and with digitally-signed binaries. While these areas are somewhat related, details vary. (If you're already familiar with this stuff, my apologies.)
The Apple PGP key is used to sign (verify) messages from the security folks at Apple, and can be to encrypt messages sent to the Apple security folks. See this Apple Security PGP web page for details on using the PGP key for message verification and for message encryption.
File downloads are implemented differently, and will generally involve a particular cryptographic hash or message digest (and not necessarily a PGP key), and what might be used used varies by the particular website and the download involved, with some sites using the older and insecure MD5, and with others increasingly using some variation of the less-insecure SHA cryptographic hash. Depending on the scheme used, these can protect against corruptions, or can also be used to sign the binaries. The system that Apple is encouraging developers to use is called Developer ID.
Shell commands used and useful here include md5 and various openssl commands for the sha hashes/digests.
If you have a particular public web site or file download, post a pointer and I'll have a look. -

For the new airport extreme what type of cable do I need to connect to my cable modem. Is Cat5 OK or will that bottle neck things?
Assuming that your cable modem has Gigabit Ethernet ports (possible, but it probably does not) Cat 5e or Cct 6 would do the job that you need.
If the cable modem is using a 10/100 Mbps port, then Cat5 will be OK. -
When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away. How can I make that go away when I am connected?
When I'm at my home, and on my Wifi, my 4G icon on my LG G2 is still present. No big deal. If the bits can flow via WiFi, that's what they'll do.
You might try (if you really MUST shut off the cellular radio):
Settings, Network Connections and More networks. Select Mobile Networks and uncheck Mobile data and data roaming.
Not sure if that will work - but give it a try. -
