ITunes 12 - "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised" feature no longer works

Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I've been having.
Since updating to iTunes 12, the 'Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised' feature no longer works. When I add media to the library, iTunes doesn't copy it to a destination within my media library. It only works if I turn the feature off, and then back on again.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't use the feature myself, but it works properly in a test library for me.
It could possibly be a permissions issue. Different processes in iTunes seem to make use of either the system or the user account for file actions and it is just possible that which has been used in that case has changed. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for details.

I can CREATE the list but, the songs that I have played don't accumulate in the list.
I haven't changed the steps that worked for me previous to the upgrade.
I have no idea how to fix this and can't find mention of anyone else having a similar problem.
Any suggestions?

Click on a station and drag to the left. The playlists sidebar will open up. Drop on the playlist you want to add to.

Photoshop Elements 13, the iTunes "Sync Photos from Photoshop Elements" feature no longer works

Photoshop Elements 13, the iTunes "Sync Photos from Photoshop Elements" feature no longer works??? Is had worked with photoshop 9 pretty good? how can I enable this feature?
thx. francisco

I am experiencing the same problem after upgrading to PSE13, but haven't found a solution yet.
TomWoodbridge proposes a workaround, see Re: iTunes Photo Sync with PhotoShop Elements Fails after PSE Update
Another permanent workaround (which doesn't require to copy the pse database every time you want to sync) is described here: Elements 13: Cannot synchronise photo albums in iTunes after upgrading from Elements 11
Hope this helps.

HOW can I FIX Mavericks and Safari 7.0 to allow Gmail to work? Gmail has been FUBAR'd since downloading Mavericks today. Finally found the brute-force logout site to just getr logged out; can't keep doing that. Other features no longer work, either.

Made big mistake of downloading Mavericks today.
Been struggling with all the FUBARd messes it caused, ALL DAY.
Google basic buttons don't work--can't log out or other basic functions.
Website use is impaired.
It took almost 3 hours to do a basic online order on one of them--at this rate, I'll be out of business soon, and it's seriously impairing Christmas preparations!
Google Voice/Video are screwed up, had to RE-download their voice/video plugin all over again--again.
Voice/video quality is REALLY poor.
Lag times in so many things are bad.
Thought this would download WITH the better writing/bookkeeping programs--NOT!
Mac Maps is piddle compaired with GoogleMaps.
The Email program on the desktop is REALLY hard to use, has few useful functions. It's MAYbe good if one only has ONE email; using it with severeal various email accounts is a serious liability in many ways--like filing, sorting, marking, etc.; no clear way to move email files to an external drive to save, to unload the HD.
HOW can Safari and Mavericks be fixed?
IF not, HOW can I REMOVE Mavericks and get back to Mountain Lion--which was not too great, but certainly more functional than Mavericks!
I NEED my web-based emails to work--NOW...NOT when Mac finally gets around to fixing things sometime later.
I NEED online ordering to work--NOW--not later when Mac finally gets around to fixing things.
PLEASE someone--any help out there? I couldn't even find but a rare hint that Safari 7.0 even exists--much less that anyone admits it's got problems, nor fixes for it.
What to do? Throw the whole unit out? Wipe and reboot? Dumb it back to OS 10? HOW? WHAT?
[freaking out here...]

Zak Adelman, LexSchellings,
It's a shiney new computer. Came loaded with Mountain Lion.
Too busy learning to use the blessed thing, to download anything....except...
The only pluggin that had to be loaded, was Google Voice-Video pluggin, while Lion was still it's OS. [AND been using the Safari that came already in it.]   Had to do that a couple times--nothing new there--that plug-in had to be re-loaded when using a PC, too--THAT happened even before Google slammed everyone into coerced use of it's Google+.
    [I understood from others, that Firefox won't work in Mac units--or I woulda put that in it to see if that solved anything]
This unit seemed a bit sluggish from the git-go, out-of-the-box.
I figured that was probly the local DSL here---rural DSL is...um...our DSL's not something to brag about, but it's the best we can do...
The difference between speed of loading pages, etc. on the new Mac, was --not-- toooo terribly different--though yes, slower on Mac....and chalked it up to my inexperience with Mac.
Been trying to get things up and running for a bit over a month now.
NOT doing very well at it--just barely getting by; rapidly falling behind what needs done [work].
Google worked just --OK-- when OS was Lion, as did the Google voice/video--slower, and voice-video was kinda scratchy or glitchy, but worked enough to --get by--.
Loading Mavericks, ruined that.
VOIP calls via Google talk have bad echio, static, cut-outs; video calling was pixilated or not working; WAS cued to re-load it's Voice-Video plug-in....which seemed to help a bit, though not very well; it only helped the Voice-Video some, not all--figured that was probably Google issues, less than Mac's, since Google has been increasingly dysfunctional as they have twisted it to be a social media-dominant thing.
[[now seeking an email venue that does what Gmail was good at, including the Voice-video calling, that has no intention of turning itself inside out to be "social"]]
Can't sign out of Gmail or Google+, nor use buttons in upper right corner with the drop-down menu.
NO buttons in upper right corner cluster on Gmail work, except the name+ button to toggle over to Google+---which I don't need! [yeah--THAT's a Google problem!]
Can only switch to HTML version by catching that button as the account signs in--if one fails to be fast enough with their fingers, it goes to Google+; can't get to email unless type in mail.google.com.
Managed to catch that button today, and clicked to use HTML "permanently" until these issues get solved.
ALSO:
Have fairly new [about 1 year?] HP bluetooth printer-scanner.
BUT, after Mavericks loaded: it HAS the unit listed, HAS drivers for it, HP unit IS listed as default printer, everything --seems-- "go",
.....except Mac keeps posting it's out of ink, and/or, not hooked up, and/or not turned on--even when it is on.
It's SUPPOSED to be blue-toothing that printer/scanner.
It did it for Lion, before loading Mavericks, even though it was troublesome to get it to work, it at least HAD printed one document when Lion was the OS.
Thank you...Downloaded EtreCheck:
BTW: Trying to copy/paste data from that check list, to this post, was achaic:
had to use Edit, select all, then use edit again to get it pasted--the mouse buttons weren't allowed to copy-paste using right-click functions [is this a relic limited-function "thing" with Mac?, or is it because I wanted to keep using this new wirless, non-Mac mouse?].
Advice?

Keeping itunes media folder organised slows down itunes

My itunes became very very slow indeed when I updated to version 9. I looked at self help forums and discovered that it should speed up if I unchecked "keep itunes media folder organised". I did that, and sure enough, itunes was cured.
Somebody then said that if I re-checked it, then the folder would be re-organised, and everything would be OK. I did this, and it took all night to organise my library (although it wasn't actually 'disorganised'). However itunes had just returned to being glacially slow.
So why is this happening? I can't find any cure for it, although I suppose one might have been found by now.
This is on a G4 ibook, 1.42 GHz. It ran itunes 8 with no problem at all. Leopard

I don't use the feature myself, but it works properly in a test library for me.
It could possibly be a permissions issue. Different processes in iTunes seem to make use of either the system or the user account for file actions and it is just possible that which has been used in that case has changed. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for details.

Switch to a new PC, but can't keep iPhone app folder organisation when sync with iTunes

I have just switched to a new PC. When I connected my iPhone to it, I have chosen to "Transfer Purchase" in iTunes. Then I go to sync for the apps. I got a msseage warning me that the apps on the iPhone will be replaced by those in the iTunes library. I didn't mind for that since I have already do the "Transfer Purchase" and I won't lose any apps for this step. But I thought it would not keep the folder organisation on my iPhone and I will need to manually group all apps again if I continue the process. I have nearly 300 apps. Are there any ways to keep all the folder organisations for this case of switching PC?

Thanks. But what I really want is to import the folder organisation from iPhone to iTunes. It is tedious to reorganise all my 300 apps again.

I moved iTunes 10.5 media folder and hard drive is now empty?

I moved iTunes 10.5 media folder to my D Drive which is larger and after importing my library and everything, iTunes worked fine. Except my D drive is now completely empty including files, music and pictures. How can I get my files back?

    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.

Quicktime "Share" feature no longer works for me.

For the past year now I've been using Quicktimes "Share" feature to upload videos to YouTube. As of today, the feature no longer works. When I open a video, click "Share" and then "YouTube" absolutely nothing happens. I've tried with multiple different video files, even some that I previously uploaded using this same method, but to no avail.
I rebooted the computer, and that did not help either. I tried some of the other "Share" options, but non of them work either. The most I've gotten was from the "iTunes" option, from which I got a drop down menu and a few export options, but after selecting my options and clicking next nothing happened.
If it helps, I am on a 2011 iMac, running OSX Lion, and yes, everything is up-to-date (as of 07/04/2012)
(Also, it may be worth mentioning that whenever I export a video from Final Cut, even though I have the option "When finished open in Quicktime," the files will not open automatically. This started happening at the same time as my other issue, but I'm nowhere near as concerned about fixing this.)

Hey philipfromcharlotte,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you are having trouble using AirPlay from an iPhone and iPad to an Apple TV. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

PSE 6: Create features no longer work

I am running PSE 6 vista and the create features no longer work. I wanted to create a photo book like I have many times before and now I get the windows message that the program must shut down. The funny thing is I choose to shut down and PSE stays open it just stops trying to create a photo book. I tried all of the create features and none of them work.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall but had no luck.
I have updated every adobe product I can think of and still no luck.

I'm having the same issue.
Have you tried Quicktime Player , not Quicktime 7? Also just try iTunes or even VLC.
You can't save the looping unfortanately.
You must enable it each time.
I need to be able to save the looping.
Weird that my laptop version of quicktime works fine with looping but not my mac pro.
I wonder if there is some kind of plugin that is conflicting? I just noticed the problem when updating to Lion.
My laptop is also running lion.
I have disabled Perian plugin too.
Any Suggestions welcome!

10.5.7: Automatic Software Update Feature No Longer Works

Ever since I installed 10.5.7 the automatic Software Update feature no longer works. (Manual updates work fine.) For example, here's what happened today with Safari 4.0.2:
1. After powering up I got the Software Update icon on the Dock.
2. I clicked it and it said I had updates that would require a reboot and it asked the usual stuff. (It didn't say what would update.)
3. I clicked to reboot now and it asked for my password and rebooted.
4. My MacBook rebooted but nothing had been updated.
So, I went to the Apple menu to check for updates and it said I had Safari 4.0.2 ready to be installed. This time, it worked. Unfortunately, I have to do this two-step process on every update that requires a reboot. I could turn off the automatic updates and just do everything manually but I prefer the automatic way. (I had it before, too.)
Thanks in adavance,
Brian

Jeffery,
Thank you for your quick response!

I have check for updates weekly and download important updates automatically enabled.

Interesting. I hadn't thought about that. ☺

After upgrading the new operating system, it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

Can I move my itunes media folder to an external hard drive without having Itunes managing the media folder

Hi all....I have spent weeks tidying up my music collection. I moved it all to Itunes media folder. Since I don't like how Itunes manages this folder I manually organised it myself so that albums where together etc. I am wondering if there is a fool proof way to move my media folder to an external hard drive without letting itunes manage and consolidate files as this will reverse all the work I did in organising. Im not sure if Im posting to the right place but fingers crossed:)
Thanks in advance

Just one more thing puhlease:) This is the list of things that are in my iTunes folder. Album artwork, Automatically add to iTunes, iTunes media, Mobile apllications, podcasts, previous itunes libraries, voice memos. Then it has files itunes preferences, itunes libary extras, itunes libarry genius, itunes libraary, itunes music library......Is there stuff in there that doesnt need to be there as some are repeated in itunes media folder which contains....automatically add to itunes, books, downloads, home videos, mobile applications, music, podcasts, tones, voice memos and itunes preferences. Any thoughts on deleting some folders??? Thankyou so much for your time on this
