ITunes 9.0.2.25 Library Issue with Multiple PCs

I have been using iTunes for years with minimal issues on multiple PCs on the same network. My iTunes library and all of my music resides on a network-attached drive mapped as drive "Z" on two PCs.
- One PC is running XP Media Edition and is hard-wired to my Ethernet hub
- The other PC is running Vista and is connected wirelessly to the network
Once in a while, when my versions of iTunes got out of sync, I'd get a message saying that the library was created with a different version of iTunes. I'd simply update the PC that had the older version and everything was fine.
Now, with a recent update to version 9.0.2.25, only the hard-wired PC (the XP machine) will read the library. Both machines have 9.0.2.25 installed, but when I try to use the laptop it says that it appears as if the library is corrupt, renames the library "(Damaged)" and creates a new, empty library. I was able to re-import nearly all of my music, though some purchases are gone.
Has Apple now somehow eliminated the ability for multiple PCs to access the same library? I find it suspicious that the only machine that can access the library is the one with which I imported the songs to begin with.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I don't try to open iTunes on both machines. If memory serves, I think that causes problems.
Last night I checked for updates and it offered a new version - 9.0.3. I upgraded the laptop (the one that I'm having problems with) and it fixed it. The other machine is still 9.0.2.25 but it doesn't seem to bother it.
All fixed!
Thanks!
Jim

    okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
    anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
    and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
    //e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

  • We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 for our church worship service; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing.  Has this issue been resolved?  Thank you!

    We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 in our church worship service; we have front screens and a stage display monitor ; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing.  Has this issue been resolved?  Now that we are 2 upgrades behind, I'm getting little concerned.  Thank you!

    Oh, well that was a whole other kettle of fish:
    Oh the G4 I attempted to install iLife '08 before Lepoard was available. About the only thing that installed cleanly was iPhoto. I ended up reinstalling everything back to iLife '06, and then upgrading back to the current stable version of the iLife '06 version. I didn't attempt a reinstall until after I upgraded to Leopard.
    When I did reinstall, I made a iLife '06 folder, copied all iLife apps into it, and upgraded. Seemed to work, except for the part where iMovie gets left behind and iDVD is only mostly functional.
    When I installed on the other 2 machines, it was after installing Leopard and all upgrades. On those 2 machines, I didn't bother with the copy, I just moved everything to the iLife '06 folder I created, and did a fresh install.
    I didn't have to do anything with the iPhoto Libraries, that I can recall.
    I always do an upgrade, never an archive and install. I've never had a problem with this back to 10.1 or 10.2.

  • SPEL in Extended VO - Issue with Multiple Rows

    Hi,
    I have extended a seeded VO by adding a new attribute *'Course_Flag'* with attribute type 'Boolean' and Query Column type 'VARCHAR2' and i wa successfully able to personalize and view the data of the new attribute *'Course_Flag'* in the page as ('true' / 'false') aacording to the query where clause.
    Now after adding a new image with SPEL property as *${oa.LearnerCatalogCoursesVO.Course_Flag}* it will have an issue with multiple items.
    I mean the SPEL will take the first row value 'true' / 'false' and will be corrected rendered according to the value of the first row and ignore other rows values.
    Example: if the *'Course_Flag'* value of the first row is 'true' then all the images will be rendered and if the *'Course_Flag'* value of the first row is 'false' then all the images will be NOT rendered.
    Please advise if I've missed any step.
    Thanks in advance to all.

  • Itunes Library sharing with multiple ipods and 2 pc's

    Hi, I have a new Ipod nano and want to use my wifes itunes library with my ipod. Which according to the tech stuff I can share the content by enabling on wifes pc. Done that, which I can now see library on my Acer laptop. However, I can't sync my playlist from her pc to my itunes. I want to download my own podcasts etc.. not clutter her itunes pc. When I transfer the ipod back to my pc it then wants to delete and re-sync.
    We have 3 ipods in the house and 2 pc's.
    Whats the best way of using the ipods and getting the most out of itunes?
    Thanks

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Syncing Music to iPod
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod
    There are several different ways to use two iPods with one computer, have a look at this help page for suggestions: How to use multiple iPods with one computer

  • Library issues with Windows 7 (64 Bit)

    I have just upgraded to a new computer and have had enormous issues with I tunes 64 bit for Windows 7. I had my music on another disc which I have mounted into the new computer. It is the same drive name (D) as on my old computer (Windows XP 32 bit). I Tunes finds my libray and I can see all my songs. However, 1. All of my existing artwork is missing.
    2. When I try to play any song it says file not found?
    I have authorised the new PC, but still no joy.

    Did you download the 64bit version of iTunes? I have Win7 Pro 64 bit and iTunes works on my pc. Just keep in mind that when you upgrade your OS, that doesn't mean that your programs automatically switch to 64 bit too, you may need to do a lot of re-installing of some of your programs

  • Issues with multiple iTunes libraries!

    I recently got asked to add some music to a friend's iPod, so I read how to create a new iTunes library. I did this and it all worked well, only I have lost my own library. The most recent "Previous iTunes Library" I have is from the 28-02-2012, and so I opened this, went through and re-added all the songs I had downloaded after that date to this library. I thought it was all fine but now every time I open up iTunes now it only has songs up until the 28-02-2012! Why is it doing this and how can I fix it! Thanks!

    I'm noticing that with iTunes 8, iTunes now doesn't keep separate preferences for multiple library locations, which is really crazy. I wonder if it's a bug or if there's a reason they did that. so when you hold option and launch itunes to get to your other iTunes library, this "other" iTunes library is now using the "old" iTunes library's file location. So if you add music to them, then they get all jumbled together and you don't know what's going where.
    I'm thinking this is the cause of what's happening to you. When you "keep music organized" or whatever, who knows where iTunes is putting the stuff now. It's really bad. I'm hoping somebody has a solution, or any ideas.

  • Issues with multiple things since Mavericks update

    I installed the Mavericks update and since, I have been having multiple problems with different things on my MacBook Pro 13"
    1. Printer issues: I have an HP officejet 6500 wireless printer (Officejet 6500 E709n Series), and now it's having major issues with printing, yet was working perfect prior to update. It will either cut out pages when printing PDF documents, or printing so slow that it has to take a break in between printing each document (an issue that all never occurred until update), to print documents back to back, it will stop after one document as though I have no other documents in queue to print, and pauses for an extremely long time (nearly a full minute, no exaggeration here, literally almost a full 60 seconds), something it's never done before this update. My Apps update even did an update to the HP software that is inside the Mac already to use printing (in other words, the mac doesn't need to have the HP software manually installed for it to work, it automatically sees the printer because it is connected to my wireless network just as my Macbook Pro which is also connected wirelessly to my network).
    2. Internet issues: am now unable to click on certain links in safari that I was able to use prior to the update, yet they will open fine inside of firefox with no issues, yet I cannot always switch between two different browsers to perform task online (literally have to start all over inside firefox while in the middle of something in safari). Also lots of websites no longer work correctly and I have to constantly clear history and cookies to attempt to use certain sites, at times it will help, other times it wont work period, yet the same exact site will work perfect in firefox (which I do not use, only on my system for use on certain sites for school because in safari prior to the update, I would have issues with only the class site and some links not working at all, no spinning wheel, no errors, just nothing, no response of any kind, basically worse than what it was before the update). Another issue, hit Ctrl+a to select inside Safari and it highlights, but then when you click out of the highlight, it comes back on it's own several times without you hitting anything, just click inside the screen on a blank space (no links, etc) with touchpad.
    3. System issues:  My system is way slower than what it was prior to the update, click on things and it wont respond at all, then minutes later will eventually respond or pops up the spinning color wheel, which it either never responds or takes an extremely long time to respond. And no matter how much I restart, it doesn't help anything. Even just to sit doing nothing, no clicking or usage on the system, and the color wheel pops up.
    4. Mail issues: Mail is now popping up completely blank messages that I have sent out, the person receives it with no issues, yet I cannot look at the message I sent neither in the inbox or the sent items when I need to look at them again, an issue not present prior to update. Also I an now having issues when receiving mail, sometimes it will check for mail and sometimes I have to manually click to make it check the server for mail, an issue not present prior to update as well.
    As of now, since I have had the chance to used the system since the update, these are the issues I have had, yet haven't had the chance to check other things, so there may be other issues that are occurring that I'm not aware of at the moment. I knew it would be a mistake to do this "free" update and did so anyway and now having one issue after the next with each application I open to use.
    Mac general info:
    Mac is one year old, purchased brand new, no shareware programs of any kind installed.
    Use for school and basic web surfing use.
    Do not install any programs onto system that I'm unsure are safe (basically programs for/from school/school websites only, or from the Mac Apps store only), not even programs like Skype, nor any windows based programs of any kind.
    Lots of free memory avail because I save everything onto external hard drives (purchased brand new as well, only 4months old) in case system crash occurs, only things on the system is Itunes music or pics from photo stream that sync to the system when Iphone connected.
    Mac system info:
    - Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    - Memory  4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    - Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    - Software  OS X 10.9
    - Number of Processors:          1
    - Total Number of Cores:          2
    - L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB

    For those needing help fixing their system and putting it back to Lion or Mountain Lion, this is what I have done to eliminate all my issues in about an hour (depending on your internet connection).
    Amazing thing, I just restored my computer back to Mountain Lion, and she's working perfect again, as I knew she would. E-mail popping into mailbox instantly as it should and did before the update, printer working fast as it was before update, no more freezing or glitches of any kind thankfully and finally. Here is the link that is through the Apple site to direct you on how to put your system back and get rid of Maverick's, that is assuming that is what you would like to do and also includes link for those wanting to try fixing the issue if that is your preference (most of this info is for those with mountain lion and some with the previousverisoin of OS X lion).
    If you want to keep Maverick's here is a good post on the apple discussion board to help you out:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6161
    If you just want to totally get rid of it and put back what you had before, this is the short version of how to do so:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
    NOTE: This particular link has a lot of info on what to do for different situations, it is a bit lengthy, yet still very helpful.

    Just in case you aren't sure what it will all look like as you are doing things, this is a link to show you a few pics of what you will see  as you as you are going through the process, it can be helpful for those who aren't sure what they are doing or how to do things at all:

    I hope this helps someone, it was amazing for me and my system is working perfect again like it was, battery life is way better went from like 3 hours to like 5 (not on full charge by the way, after it sat for a while doing the online update which took a while so that's saying something alone, huge improvement). I plan to wait a while before attempting to reinstall Maverick's, long enough for them to fix the bugs.

  • Home sharing, issues with multiple libraries

    I'm having issues getting home sharing to work the way I want it to.  I've got two seperate libraries on one computer.  I have them both set to the same home share name and all that good stuff but I can only view one library at a time.  For example, if I have library A open in itunes then all of my devices can access library A.  If I switch to library B in itunes then I can see library B on all of my devices.  I want to be able to access both libraries at the same time wirelessly via home sharing.  From the research I've done this should be possible.
    Another thing I noticed is that when I am in itunes the other library doesn't show up under 'shared' even though I have all of the sharing options I was able to find enabled.
    My OS (windows 7 x64 professional), software (itunes, bonjour, etc), individual devices (ipad and ipad 2) and drivers are all up to date.

    I'm glad to hear that it's not just me. I have iTunes libraries on a Mac Mini and on my Macbook. They show up in the shared section in iTunes on the opposite machines, as well as on my 2nd Generation Apple TV. They even show up in the Remote app on my iDevices. However, only one shows up in the iPod music app on the iPhone 3GS and iPad, as well as the iPad video app.
    Hopefully, this gets fixed soon. I keep my podcasts on my Macbook and that's the library that's not showing up on the iDevices iPod app.

  • An issue with multiple checkboxes displaying correctly.

    My company is converting our website to seam. We obviously have a number of existing pages we must convert and at least try to mimic the previous code. The page I'm currently working on is a catalog request form(see: http://www.perma-bound.com/CatalogRequestForm). I'm totally new to jsf's to an extent. I've done some coding in it while we shift to this but I'm far from an expert. I've been able to get the bean and all the code that interacts with the database to work correctly. My issue is that it's seemingly impossible to style selectManyCheckbox's in a manner similar to that page. When we were using standard html, it wasn't an issue because you could put <input>'s wherever you wanted. In the case of selectManyCheckbox's, they insert a table into the code which seemingly isn't alterable. Here's the snippet in question
    <h:form>
         <h:selectManyCheckbox layout="pageDirection" value="#{ catalogRequestAction.catalogs }">
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Perma-Picks - Grades PreK-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455164 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Graphic Novels - Grades 2-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455013 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Social Studies - Grades PreK-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455159 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="References - Grades PreK-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455669 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="High/Low - Grades 2-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455884 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Science & Math" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455160 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Fiction - Grades PreK-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455056 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Curriculum - Grades PreK-6" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455491 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="English Curriculum - Grades 6-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455201 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="Spanish - Grades 7-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455266 ] }"/>
              <f:selectItem itemLabel="College Prep - Grades 7-12" itemValue="#{ catalogs[ 455018 ] }"/>
              <s:convertEntity/>
         </h:selectManyCheckbox>
         <div class="ui-dialog-buttonpane ui-widget-content ui-helper-clearfix">
              <h:commandButton styleClass="ui-state-default ui-corner-all ui-priority-primary" value="Submit" action="#{ catalogRequestAction.requestCatalogs }"/>
              <h:commandButton styleClass="ui-state-default ui-corner-all ui-priority-secondary" value="Reset" action="reset"/>
         </div>
    </h:form>That code generates this page(http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/6550/82163381.png). As I said before, the actual selection of the boxes will yield the appropriate catalog in the database. However, I seemingly can't figure out how to stylize this in a manner that will work. From my understanding, jsf has access to 2 sets of check boxes(the ones I used and the booleans). I'm more than willing to try alternate code. However, after hours of searching online I've found few if any examples that are doing something similar to what I'm trying to do. I have to imagine that there is some other way to do this because in normal html it is simple. But, I'm just not having any luck.

    I believe this is IE 9.  Whatever the latest is.  It basically stacks all the images on top of each other.  And after some changes I attempted last night, bevel effect is still on some images after I attempted to remove that effect.  This is an issue in all the browsers.

  • I would like to use one library but with multiple ipods, but because they are my kids Ipods, and they each have their own gift cards, I'd like to be able to add money to their "profiles" without them having their own account - what is the best way

    So here is my delima - I want one Ipod account - because I only want one library - since we all like the same music - but my kids, who have their own IPODS, have gift cards, who want to be able to keep track of their balance without the other child affecting the balance - meaning - each gift card should be seperate and not totalled to the single account - Beacuse the library is fairly large, having three libraries of large amounts would be a waste.  I would also like to restrict their purchased to the gift cards only and not my credit card on file.  Does this make sense?  Once this is resolved, I'm assuming they would use their own playlists to copy their favorites to each Ipod.  Or would I set up an account for each child - which I dont want to do, because I dont want them having access to my Credit Card, and only gift card balances.  With multiple accounts, I'm assuming that would also build seperate libraries?  We also have multiple computers, but I share the library to those computers -
    What is the best way?  I'd like to be able to add credit to a specific child (birthdays, etc) without the other child being able to access that credit.  For simplicity sake.
    We are new to IPODS and lack any MAC skills.
    Thoughts?

    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.

  • Firefox issues with multiple users on a single computer.

    I have an issue with Firefox and multiple users on my computer. There are two users setup and I'm running Win7 Ultimate x64. When the other user logs in, my settings in Firefox get screwed up somehow. Even if that user does not open Firefox.
    Examples of problems this causes:
    Gmail - Cannot load the standard interface, however it will load the HTML only interface.
    Facebook - Cannot post anything.
    vBulletin Forums - Some forums will no longer normally load - a text-only version loads as if I was browsing from a mobile device.
    There may be other issues, but these are the main ones. If I clear my cookies, cache and browsing and download history, then restart Firefox, everything works again.
    This seems to happen most often when the other user logs in, and uses Firefox to log on to their Gmail account.
    How can I fix this?

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Freezing Issues with multiple new MS-7028 (v1.0B) Motherboards

    I build several MSI motherboard based machines for clients every week.
    I have noticed a major problem with the MS-7028 (v1.0B) Neo2 and Neo2 Platinum Motherboards (I've had the same issue with both now)
    Things that cause the PC to freeze (mouse pointer freezes, nothing but a reboot or forced power off)
    1. Autorun of MSI "Drivers & Utilities" CD (several versions of the CD have been tried, all of them do it 90% of the time)
       Once it displays the "setup is launching, please wait" screen. Bang. It freezes.
    2. Running MSI CoreCenter (again tried several versions, including the most recent, downloaded of msi's website)
       Runs ok for a little while, but if left running while usually freeze the whole pc within minutes, if I play around in CoreCenter, it crashes even faster
    3. Running MSI Live Update 3 (again several versions have been tried, including the most recent release from MSI's website)
       Seems ok on the Neo2 Platinum M/B, but Neo2-FR version always froze system at "search VG card BIOS version"
    I have had this exact problem on 4 of 4 "MS-7028 (v1.0B) 915P Neo2-FR" and 2 of 2 "MS-7028 (v1.0B) 915P Neo2-Platinum" M/B's
    Any Ideas???
    edit:
    Each time this has happened the systems have been as follows.
    MS-7028 (v1.0B) Neo2-FR or Neo2-Platinum M/B
    Intel P4 3000Mhz Prescott CPU
    1G Geil Ultra DDR2 533Mhz (2x 512Mb Kit)
    MSI 6200 or 7300 PCI-E graphics
    Seagate 80-160G SATA Hdd
    LG 8x DVD-RW
    450+W PSU's always with 18A or higher on the 12+
    I’ve tried updating the Bios (which I do to all m/b's used for new systems)
    I’ve tried all the latest drivers
    This is always on a clean install of XP SP2
    happens on XP Pro and XP Home
    GRRRRRR HELP ME!!!!!!
    is the MS-7028 (v1.0B) Motherboard just a big stinky lemon?

    When you said clean install, does that mean you started off from a 100% blank HDD?
    Correct

    Windows XP Home SP2 (OEM) and Windows XP Pro SP2 (Oem) (happens on both)
    Quote from: Maesus on 10-May-06, 23:08:36
    Forget about the CD, Corecentre.. etc, get the drivers from the websites instead. and you don't have to get them from MSI websites. Intel INF drivers, get from intel.com. Display card get from nvidia.com.
    I get around the problem by downloading the  latest bios from msi's website
    I install the latest inf from intel.com and the latest nvidia drivers from nvidia.com
    and uninstall corecenter.
    It would just be nice to be able to have corecenter running, and to know WHY this happens

  • Issues with multiple firewire devices

    Over the past few months, I've noticed issues when daisy chaining FW devices to my MBP (a 15" purchased September 2009. Specs are posted in the signature). It often seems that a third device causes connectivity issues. 2 will always work fine (any 2) and of course 1 device is a no-brainer. But as soon as I add a 3rd to the chain, stuff happens, Specifics:
    This usually involves 2 hard drives and an audio interface.
    The audio interface has a FW 400 input. The hard drives have 800 and 400, among other options.
    Since I can always successfully run any 2 devices without issues, I have to eliminate the drives, cables, or the new audio interface as a problem (??)
    I'm not aware of any storm or electrical surge to have done damage. Anything is possible, of course.
    For my day-2-day work, I need both drives and the audio interface up and running.
    Data always seems fine.
    The main question is are there any known issues with the FW port/chip on these MBP's. But also, how can I test the FW port integrity?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    When the controller is first plugged in (via usb), a logic popup finds and asks if i want to use this device in logic.
    Logic is asking you if you want to use that audio device as Logic's audio driver.
    This is entirely independent of MIDI - any MIDI sent to OSX from whatever MIDI device will show up in Logic.
    Is there a way in Logic to turn off reading midi for certain devices. I dont want to shut down midi completely as I also use a midi keyboard which works without issues.
    Yes, you want to filter out the MIDI coming from that particular port. Open the environment window, go to the Click&Ports layer, and New -> Instrument, call it "Null" or something and make sure it's set to no output port in that object's inspector parameters.
    Now, cable the desired MIDI port on the "physical input" object that corresponds to your device, to this "Null" instrument. Now, all MIDI data coming into Logic on that port will be effectively nuked, and will not reach the rest of Logic and interfere with other things.
    Of course, you'll need to save this setup as a template or song in order to use it in the future.
