ITunes 10.1.0.56 - multiple bugs! Help!

Got a couple of different but similar problems with my iTunes (running windows 64bit).
Firstly, when I import an MP3 folder into iTunes, and it doesn't recognise the album artist, so spreads the MP3s out all over the place, I am unable to input the album artist manually through the 'get info' option. I mean, the option is there, I can input the data, but then when I come to click 'ok' iTunes ignores what I just did, and leaves the MP3 all spread out!
Same things is happening with album art. In addition to the above problem also occuring with album art, when I click the 'get album art' option, it seems to hang for a moment while retreiving it then...nothing!
Can anyone help?!!!!!!

It's your WIndows 7 permissions on the itunes media folder.
Give yourself full control & ownership of it, and all its subcontainer folder.
This webpage has screenshots of the security settings I'm talking about.

You need to restart itunes for it to read the new permission settings.

  • ITunes 11 is a bag of hurt in Snow Leopard (multiple bugs) - Fixes? Workarounds?

    iTunes 11 is a bag of hurt in Snow Leopard (multiple bugs) - Fixes? Workarounds?
    I had been using iTunes 11.0.2 in Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on early 2011 Mac Book Pro. When I went to iTunes store on August 1, it would no longer display the iTunes store, it shows just a blank white screen. Upgrading to the current iTunes 11.0.4 does not help, I still get white screens when I try to go to the iTunes store. If I run iTunes 11.0.2 on a different Lion machine it displays the store just fine.
    Before this crippling issue began, I was having two other problems with iTunes 11.
    1) When I was able and did view app descriptions in the iTunes store, I would try to click on the links for reviews, or related apps, etc, and none of the links worked. This problems also does not occur in Lion.
    2) Also, I really do not like the new app sync buttons, "Remove", "Will Remove", "Update", "Will Update". Sometimes iTunes becomes confused on the state of an app, especially when I sync two devices to have the same apps on each. Also, when I have many apps, its a pain to find and click all the "Update" buttons to make them say "Will Update" as I have to read the buttons closely. There should at least be a way to sort the apps by status so I can see all the ones that say "Update" together.
    I am on Snow Leopard because I have some Mac apps that still require Rosetta and I do not wish to upgrade. However, it seems that even though Apple says iTunes is compatible with Snow Leopard, they are doing a poor job of testing it in Snow Leopard.
    Anyone else seeing these issues with iTunes 11 in Snow Leopard? Any Fixes? Or Workarounds?

    You are simply not understanding how app updating works in iTunes 11. Apple has changed it up a bit. When viewing your apps in iTunes, along the top, directly under the LED display click the "updates" tab. This will show you all the apps that have available updates. Then click the "update" button in the lower right of the screen.

    This is generally a network issue. As a first trouble shooting step, restart your computer. If that does not work power cycling the internet modem will generally clear up the problem.

  • I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6.

    I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me a pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6. I asked Apple store & tech said to format it but I will lose all the data..!

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

    Hi Doomtrooper,
    When you updated your iPhone 4S and iPad3 to iOS6, what exactly do you mean when you can't access the iTunes store? Have you checked your connection to the network?
    Please be a little more specific

  • HT1911 Why does Itunes have me logging in multiple times to buy a song? Somehow, my account got disabled now. It also shows that I am logged in....?

    Why does itunes have me logging in multiple times to buy a song? I can access everything else fine, but now my account is disabled for some reason although my password was entered correctly... help

    I've seen a couple of other threads over the last 10 minutes posting similar problems, so it appears to have affected other people as well - the poster on the first thread has now posted again saying that it's now working for him, so you could give it another try.
    Edit : your reply appeared as I was attempting to post this

  • HT5649 Our family has a shared computer with itune software. We have multiple apple devices and multiple itunes accounts. Can we share the computer and iTunes software to back up each apple device separately?

    How do multiple users with multiple devices share one computer with iTunes software to back up multiple devices and individual iTune libraries?

    Hi Goodguy147,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The easiest way to have multiple users with multiple devices share a single computer is to create a User Account on your Windows PC for each person.  Each person should also have a unique Apple ID.  That will keep each individual's iTunes Library separate from the others and each individual can associate and backup several devices to their iTunes library. 
    Using your Apple ID for Apple services
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    The article below is a troubleshooting article for Windows.  I'm just quoting the section from it that explains how to create user accounts:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717?viewlocale=nl_nl
    Follow the steps below to create a new user account in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    Choose Start > Control Panel.
    Open "Add or remove user accounts." (If you're using the Classic view in Windows Vista, open "User Accounts," and then open "Manage another account.")
    Select "Create a new account" and follow the instructions to set up the account.
    Once you create the new account, choose     Start > Log Off.
    Log in to the new user account.

  • After downloading music and dragging into iTunes I end up with multiple copies of the album on my hard drive. I do have the "copy files into iTunes library" checked. When I try to erase one of the copies I end up with red ! in iTunes library.

    Please Help!  After downloading an album and dragging it into itunes I end up having multiple copies of the album on my hard drive.  I do have (under Itunes preferences, advanced) copy songs into itunes library "checked".  I'm sure this is the reason for the multiple copies.  When I try to delete one of the copies of the album and go back to itunes and try playing a song, I get a red exclamtion point next to the song with an error message saying itunes cannot locate file. My questions are, Does Itunes literally make a copy of the song? If so , How do you know which file to delete?

    Sony's own entertainment software on the Vaio plays merry **** with iTunes, worse there's no telling when it will kick in.
    First head over to the Sony Vaio site and get the update for the software, that will stop it from messing with the iTunes database/library files when you connect your iPod.

    With that stopped you can add the music back without fear of this happening again.

  • ITunes 10.4 and Windows 7 bug thread

    I thought I would start an entire thread devoted to iTunes 10.4 and Windows 7 bugs since there are MANY people reporting various issues and may not know about all of them. Hopefully this will combine a list of all bugs for reference and help others. So far, most of this effects Windows 7 64 bit, but some are reporting issues under 32 bit too.
    I have spoken with both Apple Care and a higher level tech at iTunes support. The iTunes support tech said they were "looking into all reported bugs and are aware of issues with version 10.4, especially under Windows 7. They encourage others to report their bugs to iTunes support so they can work on this and find all the issues.
    KNOWN BUGS:
    Album Art copy/paste broken - A bug that causes copy/pase from clipboard where album art is not displayed in the info tab as before. Some have reported success by dragging the image file over to it vs copy/paste method but it is still very much spotty and a known bug.
    iTunes store not working - Some have been effected with the iTunes store not working properly for them. Personally I don't have a problem but this has been for some.
    "Purchases" link not working in iTunes - When you click on "Purchases" link on the right column, all your purchases are missing and do not show up. This includes, music, movies, apps, etc. This is also a known bug and one that I have personally. Works fine in iTunes 10.3 for Windows 7 64bit and also works fine under both Snow Leopard and Lion OS.
    Sync issues - Some have reported syncing issues since upgrading to 10.4 iTunes on Windows 7. This is a bit spotty as well as I have no trouble but there are others that have reported issues.
    Solutions:
    For now, the only way to fix this is to use iTunes 10.4 under Snow Leopard or Lion OS. Also, you can uninstall (not repair) 10.4 and install 10.3 again which should work.

    You are correct and I wish that I had known this before spending 4 days and a lot of trouble going over this with both Apple Care and iTunes support. They had me jumping through hoops and didn't know anything until it was finally escalated. Only then did I get a vague response like I mentioned in the first post. It's troubling to me how a simple response from anyone there could've just said we know about this and they are bugs in 10.4 causing this.
    There are other issues too as you point out with the syncing and crashing. Anyway, hopefully others will find information here more useful than calling Apple for help. Not much we can do now except roll back to 10.3 for those that kept it and hope also they can updated Apple Application Support component.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

  • I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

    I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

    You cannot do that.  The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address.  The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well).  You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
    You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
    I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?
