ITunes 8 Missing Features In Advanced Preferences!?

After installing iTunes 8 I noticed that I can no longer "see" the "General" "Importing" and "Burning" tabs usually listed under the "Advanced" tab!!??
If you have noticed the same thing, were you able to find a fix?

Documentation of changes is one of Apple's primary weak spots. That's why one of the first things I do with any new version of an Apple application is peruse the preferences, just to identify such undocumented changes. No doubt many of the changes made in iTunes 8 are due to customer suggestions, some of which have been made in the forums many times over the years, but it certainly would be nice if there was a summary document when common preferences and commands move.

ITunes locking up using advanced preferences

After going to Preferences and clicking on Advanced - I click on Burning and my system completely locks up without hiving me a chance to see the settings. I just upgraded to the latest version of iTunes but still having issues. Any suggestions?
Also having issues with trying to burn playlist to CD like everyone else on the board. I select the playlist - insert CD - click on burn cd link in upper right hand corner and nothing happens.

I came across your post because, I have been having issues for a while with the same description, except that I am using separate partitions on my main drive.
What I noticed is that if I set my podcast downloads to go to my NTFS main partition, there is no lag... but the moment I set it to my FAT32 partition, the lag starts back up.
I believe that the issue is with the slooow write time to FAT32 in large drives. (And in my instance, the move command apple does to put the podcast, which writes to the FAT32 partition and removes the NTFS temp download) Do you see the same lag or alot shorter if the drive is formatted to NTFS?
I don't really have any space currently to format my partition to test the issue, but I the fact of the downloads speeding up when set to my NTFS main disk makes me think that this issue could be lessened by using FAT32.
a side note for me, I'm considering reformatting my drive to NTFS, after backing up due to the advancement of ntfs3g in linux, so this could solve my problem at least.

Just brought home newly purchased MacBook Pro 15"/Maverick/Retinal Display. To my astonishment, there is NO DVD slot! No one in the store told me about this missing feature. Intolerable, How does one install software? Insert CDs to copy for iTunes?Do I have to purchase an external DVD drive? Is one even available? What a crock!

I’ve owned Macs since 1990 (IICX my first), mostly desktops. Having had DVD/CD drives in all my previous laptop Macs since 2001 - (2) G4 Powerbooks, A 17” Mac Book Pro - and also inspecting a friend’s year-old Mac Book Pro which had the DVD slot - unless someone told me at purchase, I had no reason to know that the Retina display version of the 15” had NO DVD drive. ANYHOW, I fully intended to buy the non-Retina display version, because it was cheaper. Unfortunately by the time I got to the Apple store they were no longer selling the non-Retina display version; all versions were ONLY with the Retina display. And the fine distinction of a DVD vs. a non-DVD drive was not pointed out. So now I have to shell out an additional $80 bucks for an external SuperDrive.

ITunes freezes when trying to access "burning" tab in advanced preferences

iTunes freezes when trying to access "burning" tab in advanced preferences and also when attempting to hit burn cd button in lower left corner.

Thank you SO much!!! This is Exactly the problem I was having. I have spent untold hours in the last couple of days trying to resolve not only iTunes freezing up, but my network connectivity went bust as well. I like Blink so I'm undecided about whether to uninstall it yet, so I just disabled all of its firewall settings, and presto!... I can not only get my CD/DVD player to read and burn CD's, but iTunes and my computer remain functional. I got my computer to reconnect to the internet by doing a System Restore at a point prior to my trying to burn a CD. Thanks again so much. You saved my entire week!

Missing Features, Bugs, and Wish List for Apple Engineers

I LOVE my iPhone. It is by far the best phone I have ever had. The interface is awesome. Great job Apple, but there are missing features and bugs that all of us want updated or wish were added. I know they were probably already thought of by Apple, but in an effort to make the phone perfect removed to make it more stable. Now that it is out lets make it perfect.
This thread will hopefully give you guys guidance from the early adopters who share your love for the phone (and others who want to chime in). I want to separate the list into a few categories and hope everyone will add to this thread with their ideas:
1) BUGS/CHANGES TO EXISTING APPS:
- Period should be in alphabet keyboard (make space smaller) or when you go to symbol keyboard and hit period it should automatically go back to the alphabet keyboard (unless you double click the symbol button which means stay there like caps lock)
- Individual delete (like Mail) of all lists (eg. call list, bookmarks list, history etc.
- Multiple item in a List delete (see below for how to select). This is also so un-Mac like to not be able to select multiple items to delete. It is all or none for clear/delete on the iPhone.
- Implement double finger slide...in maps double finger tap zooms out so the OS recognizes this, why don't you use a double finger drag to mean "select". There is no way to select some words in a sentence or a group of items. This could be how. eg. In a list (eg Mail) double finger slide over items you want to select (instead of singer finger drag which moves the list) then one finger slide to the right to delete the selected items from the list.
- Copy and paste. Since there are no menus this would require a gesture (ala newton)
- when you tap the battery icon it should bring up a battery status dialog (ala wifi join dialog where the screen dims): present charge, big battery icon (like the charging one), time left. In addition, instead of giving battery usage details only after a full charge, give it at any point.
- Since you know that nights and weekends are at set times (and not variable like it was on Sprint where I came from)...the phone usage details should be broken down into: peak minutes used and N+W minutes used (not hard to figure out since you know the time and dates of calls)
- Be able to change font/background etc in Notes app
- faster way to get to favorites in the killer phone app after turning on phone. Just seems like it takes too many taps to get there to make a call on a phone.
2) WISH LIST FOR NEW APPS (apps that can be added with existing hardware, see #3 for other wishes)
- iChat (obvious and probably almost done)
- VOIP (probably not going to happen, and wouldn't work in Europe where I would need it most gven network speeds there)
- Flight tracker widget
- Exchange support (probably in the works)
- Push email from gmail and .Mac (probably in the works)
- Bluetooth sync
- DUN (probably not going to happen since AT+T does not want it)
- Data/File storage with sync
- TODO APP that syncs to to do in iCal
- Ringtones, definitely from songs from iPod side (obvious and coming soon I am sure)
-Search function like spotlight. Global would be awesome, but even just in contacts
3) FUTURE HARDWARE RELATED WISHES (stuff we wish could be in hardware version 1 but know require a version 2):
- GPS
- 3G
- LED that changes color and/or pulses (like MacBooks sleep light) that indicates things (eg charge status, Voice mail status, roaming status etc) without turning on the phone
- Move camera to front to allow video conferencing (I doubt Steve would allow since it would mess up the clean front look)
Well I could go on and will add to this thread later, but I need to go to work to show everyone (and sell more apple stuff since many of my colleagues have been converted to macs). Now, all you pioneers, start adding things to help our beloved phone become better!

I agree with your post! I'm amazed by the simplicity, the screen, and the apps on the iPhone. They all have worked wonderfully for me, with just a few crashes while surfing or loading big email images. (I heard that shutting down the phone and restarting helps that.)
The single flaw for me is that the phone app itself should be primary, with more options (quicker access, unique ringtones, voicedial?) and ease of use. The other applications are so elegant, but I need my phone to be very accessible and practical too.
My wish list:
1) Make it fewer taps to get to the point where you can make a phone call. How about the main button can be programmed to take you wherever you want. I'd choose to go to Phone Favorites, so I could speed dial right away.
2) Be able to set a preference as to what app you're in when you wake up the phone. I'd choose phone keypad, some might choose iCal, etc.
3) Add the period and comma symbols to the alpha keyboard.
4) Allow different ringtones for specific caller ID's.
5) Copy and paste.
V2) With new hardware, add a "back" button to return to prev. screen. It could be small, on the side near volume?

Missing Features in BT Cloud

The thread is intended to keep together a list of BT Cloud features that people would like but that are not present. It is sometimes difficult to keep buts and missing features apart; if posting please try to keep to the 'missing features' subject. While I can, I will edit this first post rather than adding extra posts as I add extra comments.
BT Cloud is a new service (or a new interface to an old service) so has many missing features; with luck if we record these the team will try to get them added at some point. I have found them very responsive on the issues with speed (even though they haven't yet managed to resolve them), and I hope they will be equally responsive here.
~~~~~~~~
Sharing of directories
I can share files but not directories. On the Windows GUI, 'Share' is greyed out when a directory is selected. On the web GUI, you can select 'Share', but all the options are then greyed out except 'Show Sharing History'
~~~~~~~~~
Multi-select
Normal multi-select options don't work in either GUI.
Expect shift-click to select a range of files/directories.
Expect ctrl-a to select all.
etc.
~~~~~~~~~~
Not enough control of when backup happens
No control to prevent BT Cloud starting when computer starts
Also, it starts instances for ALL users ~ in many cases backup will only be required from one 'main' user.
No pause button to pause backup
No exit button to stop backup altogether
Correction: these buttons do exist, but are in a completely non-conventional place,
after clicking left button on the notification icon a secondary (nonstandard) pair of icons comes up,
if you right-click on the left of these you get a useful menu with pause, exit and help.
These should all appear on a right button click of the notification icon,
and help should be available from the main screen as a button or by hitting F1.
~~~~~~~~~~
Backup of folders from network drive
Don't seem to be able to select folders from a network drive to back up.
Dones not work using either network drive directly, or via mapped drive letter.
~~~~~~~~~~
Easy backup of music files from android
This is available on Windows, and can be done manually on android, but esasier interface needed on Android

You will have to disregard my previous comments. It seems that when I tried to use the BT Cloud app for the first time it had not set up fully. There was no access to the help pages.
A section by section read through the instructions shows that most features in my listing are there. Even a pause feature, and of course, being able to quit the app..
For every day use the app seems to be fully effective.
Other users with more advanced demands may find some problems.
The demands on the Windows 7 operating system are low, using little processing time and only a minor RAM usage.

HT1926 I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll. error 7 (windows error 126)

I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll. error 7 (windows error 126). Anyone else having this issue? How do I get iTunes back in working order?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

- screen orientation for all screens
- 360 degree screen; orientation change in any direction (currently only works one way)
missing features:
- the usual suspects: scheduler edit, missing email, 3rd party sdk
- album/ artist shuffle

Not sure what you are referring too... If I tap the screen once to get the commands to come up and then tap the shuffle icon, it changes from blue to white depending on whether shuffle on or off.
somehow, i can't reproduce it now. a friend showed me and i tried myself agreeingly. now it works ;>| - let you know when i find it again
- when switching back to video, the currently played video should be present as with music play
I am with you on that one
- once switched 24hr mode, switching back to 12hr mode doesn't work
- Japanese IME not available in widescreen orientation
- orientation doesn't change whilst in input mode
input mode?
once they keyboard comes up (input mode) and you tilt the iPt, it doesn't switch orientation anymore until you finished
- screen orientation for all screens
- 360 degree screen; orientation change in any direction (currently only works one way)
Actually, if you are in the music section, you can turn the screen to get an orientation in 3 positions. The only one position it wont move to is the one where the IPT is upside down.
1. it should be able to switch in any section; even in lists because this would be natural for a user.
2. upside down should definetly work because many people will have the iPt in a pocket, or additionaly, like me in a small pouch-bag. since the headphone jack is on the bottom, the natural position on first view when taking it out will always be upside down in such cases.
missing features:
- the usual suspects: scheduler edit, missing email, 3rd party sdk
- album/ artist shuffle
Isn't that pretty much the same as song shuffle? I don't think I have ever gone to a song on the same album, much less the same artist.
no. i am a bit old school, mind me saying that, and am usually listening to whole albums. so, i just want the next album being choosen by random. btw, itunes and the old iPods have this functionality already. as for the artists, i think, the same should apply and am sure to use it. maybe it is not your listening style but i know plenty of people doing it.
If you go into the selection list that arranges by album or artist and select a song through there the shuffle works just on the album or artist you opened, if that was what you meant.
- video/ tv shows continues play
Thats a cool idea, so it just runs one episode after another
- apple should talk to apple: safari support for apple .mac websites (email, quicktime)
I think i read somewhere that you should be forwarded too the .mac website that is made for the IPT and the iPhone
well, i am not forwarded to other than just the regular mail interface when going to webmail.mac.com. just viewing is fine but trying to compose a message always breaks somewhere, either entering the address field before entering the text field, or when getting it right when pressing "sent". in such cases the the IPt just returns to the main application screen and that is it for this. if you find what you were mentioning, pleasxe post
- usb disk support
Not sure what you are refering too.... using the IPT for storage or using a USB key for extra space to store on the touch
well, both would be cool, though we might get that one with the upcoming SDK, but at least as USB key as with the old iPods
- better volume and position control as fine tuning is difficult; maybe reintroduce circular motion
- itunes-like search
I love the search idea.... let us type in the artist or song name with that fabulous onscreen KB.
especially considering that yet again the old iPods have this already, safe the on-screen keyboard

How to Enable Payment Terms in the Advanced Preferences?

Hi,
We are working on JDE E1 8.12 release, We have a problem that sales order preferences setup is not giving the required result. In the setup we linked Item Group (SRP1) and Customer with payment term. Output of this setup is have different payment terms in SO details (F4211). Right now system is taking same SO header (F4201) payment term. I checked all the setup is okay....can anyone help me to solve this problem.
I've done the following :
- Activate the advanced preference schedule ADVPREF in constants
- Set up the advanced preference definition DETAILS with a preference hierarchy of PH and type of advanced preference 02
- Set up the detail for an Item Group and Customer
- Activate preference profiling in P4210 on Preferences tab.
I had a issue - missing data columns with P4072 (Advanced Preferences Detail Revisions). I already could add a preference line via P40711 (Preference Values Maintenance) and I could add values, payment terms,but still is not giving the required result
Thanks & Regards

Hi
There are as many options for that
You can go for
1)MASS t code
2) LSMW (by recording)
3)BDC (by recording)
and the most easiest way is by doing the MASS tcode
goto MASS and enter the object type as BUS2032
execute now select the sales order haeader data and execute and now enter the sales doc from and to range and execute now all the sales dox will be displayed
and from the menu click on select fields and select the terms of payment
now select the terms of payment row and enter the new values and click on carry out new changes

Missing features while upgrading to sharepoint2013

While upgrading i faced two issues:
1. Found a missing feature Id = [dc98d4f8-2307-4fe4-9f9c-5b9d97bce640], Name = [Lab04 Feature1], Description = [], Install Location = [Lab04_Feature1
2. WebPart class [6fcd2d02-416d-6df5-d11b-992a0dc48370] (class [JSharepoint.JSFile.JSFile] from assembly [JSharepoint, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=62e6c3f22721431c])
is referenced [2] times in the database [WSS_Content_02], but is not installed on the current farm. Please install any feature/solution which contains this web part.
i run the following query against database but query returns null
SELECT * FROM WSS_Content_2007.dbo.Features WHERE FeatureId = ’75a0fea7-cd50-401e-af0e-782f3662a299′
SELECT * FROM WSS_Content_2007.dbo.WebParts WHERE tp_WebPartTypeId like ’68ec641-8c6a-1cc6-6465-185094919a93′
is there any other way the fix these issues

Let me know if you can help in below issue;
I am trying to migrate SP 2010 to SP 2013 using contend db upgrade method.
Before runing Test-SPContentDatabase command I deployed all the custom wsps.
But still I am getting feature not found. No change in GUIDs.
I deployed branding feature in compitible mode and rest of other features are in native mode.
upgrade error log shows both types of features are missing.
But when I create Site Collection on default content database then I can see custom features are
avaiable.
I had followed same steps as you described in your post except one change in wsp deployment.
I had deployed branding wsp in compatible mode (14) and rest of features are native mode (15)
with same GUID. Still I am getting both type of features marked as missing.
As per your experiecne, at least in my case branding feature should not be marked as missing as installed sp 2010 version. But I can see under missing feature error.
My next question: Is that mean we can't migrate SP 2010 Content database having customization directly to native mode and has to follow compatible mode?
Thanks in advance

Missing features in iphone 4

Dear Gentlemen,
I live in Saudi Arabia, and I bought an iphone device from there with the 4.2 Version software.
I was surprised that a lot of the iphone features were disabled, such as facetime and internet tethering. Anyhow, I have a US itunes account, and I thought that when I update the device with software to 4.3 all the missing features would be enabled (including the new features of the personal hotspot, etc...)
but unfortunately non of the disabled features were enabled, nor that the new features offered by apple were installed.
Please help me solve this issue, knowing that I don't want to jailbreak my device.
Many Thanks in Advance

Btw, I forgot to mention that some of my friends bought their iphone devices from UK and US and the features that I miss work fine with them even with Saudi service providers

Missing features in new Pages

I was using a report template in the new Pages and I noticed at least 2 missing features that used to make things really easy.
There is no longer a way to select multiple objects:Say you create a diagram with several shapes, arrows & text boxes, if you have to move the diagram or delete it, you have to manually select every object. I looked in the help section for a short cut, but no such short cut is referenced. SOOO annoying and heaven forbid your palm grazes the touch pad!
There is no longer a way to insert pre-designed pages in a template.I created a report using a template, but when I go to insert a new section, I have to re-create (by c&p!) the sections! I used to be able to selct a page style for a new section (insert new head page, text page, photo page...etc.).
My hope is that I'm just missing something, otherwise the new Pages is much less "user-friendly" than it used to be and that doesn't feel like an "improvement".
Any shortcuts that more advanced users might know of?
Thanks!

I have the same problem. Unfortunately, I never had Pages 4.3, so I have nothing to revert back to. Pages was my last hope at exporting a doc to a pdf on a mac with working links - and of course, I buy it only to find out it no longer works in Pages 5. #headdesk
Any suggestions? (Google Docs is not an option, they redirect the links in the doc through their own URLs with tracking codes).

Missing features in PSE9, screen reso problem?

So we already know that the screen resolution is the reason why the Advanced Dialog box is missing. But what else?
I noticed that when creating a new album in Organiser (clicking the large green plus sign under albums on the bar to your right), you are supposed to have a box with Backup/Sync under the Album Name. I don't see mine, does anyone else?
As I go through the classroom in a book elements 9, if I come across anymore missing items I'll post them here. If anyone else notices something is missing please post it.
Thanks

ok, at least that helps me to understand more. you see, the user/reader won't know if the missing feature is country dependent or a bug in the system. that's why i posted this discussion, because more than two problems without an answer will cause the user/reader to just dump the product. i paid quite a bit for book and program so i don't want to give up just yet.
the book really should let the reader know that the feature might not be available due to this or that, instead of letting us think our computers or programs are failing us. i see that it tells you if your have a mac the feature won't work.
thanks!

I can't open iTunes Store features tab on iPad mini. Message given is: 'Your request produced an error. (newNullResponse)."
How do I resolve this problem?

Try restarting your iPad or testing on another Wi-Fi network.
If that doesn't do it, try the troubleshooting steps in this iTunes Store doc. The same steps should help with App Store problems.

Itunes conversion feature REALLY SLOW

Hi. Today's my first time using the conversion feature in itunes. (Advanced tab: Create iPod or iPhone version). I'm trying to convert my mp4 file into one that's suitable for my iPod. The problem is that the version is REALLY SLOW. It's been converting for over 30 minutes but the progress bar on top only has about ONE MILLIMETER filled in! To the people who've used the itunes conversion feature before, can you please tell me if the conversion was this slow for you guys?
Thanks!
