Itunes can't read metadata from some mp3 files

I'm running itunes on windows 7 64. I transferred my library from my old xp machine and everthing seems to be fine except that about 20 albums have lost their metadata (some have the album name, but no tracks - most have nothing). When I attempt to use the 'get track info' option, it tells me that it can only retrieve track information for files that were imported using iTunes - which mine all were. The tracks all play just fine.
The odd thing is that windows media player has no issue pulling the track info out of the files. In fact, it even displays a field indicating that the mp3 files were created originally using iTunes.
Just for kicks, I copied the files over to a machine running win xp and attempted to do the import there (thinking that iTunes may be flaky on win 7), but no joy.
The tracks all have their data intact, as demonstrated by wmp and I really want iTunes to be able to read it out because it would take forever to hand tag each one all over again. If I don't get them tagged, I'll have a lot of trouble syncing these with my iPod. Suggestions anyone?

When I attempt to use the 'get track info' option, it tells me that it can only retrieve track information for files that were imported using iTunes - which mine all were.
You mean when you go to iTunes menu Advanced -> Get CD track names.
That is different than right click - get info on a track.
In order to Get CD track names, the songs must be rRIP'd using the same iTunes library on the same computer. It will not work if you RIP on one computer and copy them to another computer.
Try this...
Select one of the songs in iTunes, right click - Convert ID3 tags and select V2.3.

    when I was talking on phone, suddenly the phone was switched off.
    i tried to switch it on but it gave the message....connect to itunes for set up.
    when I connected it to itunes...it gave the message, itunes can not read data from this iphone, restore it to factory settings. It also said while restoring ypu will lose all media data but you can restore the contacts.
    I restored the factory settings....the phone was on recovery mode...it was verified by itunes and all that..but in the end it again said that iphone has some problem and can not function right now.
    after that when ever i connect it with itunes, it gives the message, it can not activate the iphone further, try again later or contact customer service.
    What to do now?????? Customer service people say..it is hardware problem

    If it's a hardware problem, then the phone will need to be replaced.
    There is no magic that can fix a hardware problem.

  • Looking for pure Java API to read metadata from an MP4 file.

    Hi, I am looking for a pure Java api that can read MP4 metadata. I have been trying to look online for one but have not found anything
    suitable. If there are no good api's, can someone point me to resources on how to parse metadata from an MP4, tutorials would be great
    as well. I have looked online for that as well but have not found much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to read metadata from a pdf file

    The sample XAPDumper read metadata in a file (PDF or not) if it is valide. If you want to keep the XAPMeta object, don't delete this object in ProcessSubstring().

  • ITunes 7.3 won't recognize some mp3 files

    I'm using iTunes 7.3 on a dual-G5 with Mac OS X 10.4.10. After upgrading, I noticed that some tracks were missing from my iTunes Library, even though they are in the iTunes Music folder. When I tried to reimport these files (by dragging them from the Finder the iTunes Library), nothing happened.
    Special notes: My iTunes Music folder is not in Users/Me/Music; it's on a second local hard drive. Also, I'm not entirely certain that this problem started after upgrading to iTunes 7.3; it could have happened under an earlier version and I just didn't notice.
    Investigating a little bit further, I discovered that the problematic files were all MP3 format, at least as far as I can tell. I checked them out in Media Rage (trial download) and found that their ID3 tags were empty. Now, let me point out that these were files that I ripped myself from CD, probably several years ago since I have used AAC for my more recent rips. I do know that these files and their ID3 tags worked fine and within the last year or so, which means that somewhere along the line iTunes destroyed the ID3 tags and stopped recognizing these files.
    I confirmed that these files can play properly in QuickTime player. I also tried adding the ID3 tags back in using Media Rage (and ID3 v2.3.0), but iTunes still will not recognize them.
    I also tried completely reinstalling iTunes, by deleting Applications/iTunes, Users/Me/Music/iTunes, and all the Users/Me/Library/Preferences plists associated with iTunes, and then downloading iTunes from www.apple.com, but this didn't solve the problem either.
    PowerMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    I have the same problem.
    I've had these songs in itunes & on my ipod before for awhile & they played just fine. I upgraded itunes & everything seemed fine, until I auto synced my ipod & I get this message saying that five files aren't copied to the ipod because the ipod won't play them. Then I try to play them in itunes & itunes won't play them, even though they show up in the library & are MP3s. Quicktime player & VLC both play these files still...
    I have no idea what could cause the error for these random 5 songs, which are not related to each other & come off the same CDs as other songs which are still able to be played...

  • Can not copy spaces from some pdf file

    https://sites.google.com/site/sharedacrobat/data/cannot_copy_text.pdf
    I'm trying to copy some text from the above pdf file (with mouse and ctrl-C). But many spaces are missing (e.g., the following text). Is it a problem with acrobat. Or it is a problem with the pdf file. I use pdftotext to conver the pdf file to a text file. The text file looks fine. Therefore, I suspect it is a bug in Acrobat. But I'm not completely. Could you please take a look and let me know what the problem is and how to fix it? Thanks!

  • How can I read "Keys" from a Config File that have square brackets in them?

    I'm using the "Read Key (String).vi" from the config.llb and I'm having a problem because the key names in my file have square brackets in them. I'm creating an VI to read certain pieces of the TestStand �StationGlobals.ini� file and array elements appear as %[0] = "blah blah blah". It looks like they're not getting recognized at all. Is there a way to handle this?

    I was just looking at the code inside the configuration VIs and the way they work under V6 is that the Open VI actually reads the contents of the configuration file, parses it (in nice-platform independent G) and stores it in a fancy LV2-style global called the "Config Data Registry.vi". The routine that does the parsing is called "String to Config Data.vi". My gut reaction is that this code is going to be the same in your version because between sometime prior to V6 of LV, NI changed the location of a couple terminals on the low-level Match String function and it looks like when this code was originally written the terminals were in the old configuration.
    In any case, if your square-bracket containing strings are getting lost, this is probib
    ly where it's happening at. The other place to check is in the read VI itself. The V6 VI for reading the configuration registry is called "Config Data Get Key Value.vi". It's output is then further parsed by a function called "Parse Store String.vi" if the "read raw string?" input is set to False (the default position).
    Given that all the code for these functions are written in LV, you should be able to fix your VIs to read the strings you have in the ini file now. Which IMHO is actually the way they should work.

  • I want to transfer some mp3 files to my iPad from my Mac book pro...is this do-able and if so how do I do it?

    I want to transfer some MP3 files from my Mac book pro to my Ipad.....is that doable?  I have connected my Ipad to my Mac but I don't see where to sync them together.
    HELP please!!!

    The first thing that you should probably do is to turn off auto syncing just in case....or have you already done that?
    Launch iTunes and got to iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing.
    Now you will have to launch iTunes on your own when you connect the iPad to the Mac. After you connect and start iTunes, click on your device, them click on the Summary Window. If you uncheck Manually Manage, etc. - then the option to select Sync only Selected Songs and Videos should be available. I don't think you can have both options selected at the same time.
    You should also transfer your purchased music into iTunes is you haven't done that yet. Take a look at this now.
    Transfer purchases.

    After you transfer purchases, You should be able to select and choose whatever you want to sync with regard to music, playlists, albums, etc ...as well as apps, photos and so on.

  • Itunes refuses to import some mp3 files.

    Hi,
    Can someone please advise. I have an album of MP3 tracks. For some reason Itunes refuses to import all but 2 of the songs on the ablum. I have the files on the hard drive in my music folder which should be auto sync to Itunes. This does not happen with these mp3's. Also if I try to do it manually nothing happens. Any suggestions?
    P.s I am using the latest version of Itunes and the MP3's play fine with media player etc.

    Yeah, what stubchain said. If they play in WMP, then you've run into the bug where iTUnes can't read the MP3 tags.
    iTunes has problems with v2.4 ID3 tags.
    http://www.id3.org/iTunes
    iTunes also has a problem with v2.2 tags and artwork/beats per minutes tags on the same song.
    Try setting them to v1 in another program and then see if iTunes can read them.
    Then once iTnues can read tehm, I would convert them to v2.3 tags, which seem to be the most stable & have the best features.

  • Read metadata from file cancel modifications !

    Hi,
    I use Lightroom 1.1 in french. I made some photo (in raw but in jpeg the result is the same) and import them in Lightroom with conversion in DNG. In Lightroom, in develop module, I crop, change contrast and som others.
    After that, I geotag my DNG files with HoudahGeo. HoudahGeo write geotag in the file. So back in Lightroom, I make a 'Read metadata from file' ('Lire les métadonnées depuis les fichiers' in french) for having geotag in Lightroom.
    Geotag are now in Lightoom, nice, but in develop history, I have a new line 'Rénitialiser les paramètres' !!! So I can't see all my modifications... Is it normal ?
    Thank you
    PS: Sorry for my english...

    I think you should test this with one or two pictures - import/convert, save metadata to file, geotag, read metadata. Also try import/convert, make small adjustment, save metadata to file, geotag, read metadata. In iView I often write metadata to DNG's that have been adjusted, then read the metadata in Lightroom - sometimes I add more data in iView and do more adjustments.
    I have seen the problem you describe, but it has been with raw files which I have adjusted in Lightroom but haven't saved out the metadata. I have then created an xmp sidecar in iView, and read the metadata in LR. So the sidecar had no ACR/LR instructions. The result was that my adjustments were wiped out. What I suspect is that something similar is happening with your DNGs - that conversion creates them but doesn't write the ACR/LR fields.
    So try a few alternative sequences.

  • Feature Request: save metadata to file, and read metadata from file.

    Please have function to save metadata to file, and read metadata from file.
    This would allow us to write cross-platform plugins that can assure data is up-to-date in the xmp, or modify xmp and have it reinstated in the catalog.
    This would go nicely with the ability to save xmp for virtual copies, dng, and rgb formats.

    Perhaps someone with direct experience with publishing to Smugmug will chime in.  Short of that, some thoughts on your issues:
    Should I not bother to "Save Metadata to File", this seems to be what is messing up the SmugMug publish service?
    I very much doubt that it is messing up the publishing.  What gets saved to the file from the catalog is independent of what gets exported.  Saving metadata to the file is generally a good practice (in case you screw up your catalog backups).  Many, perhaps most, users set the preference Catalog Settings > Automatically Write Changes Into XMP.
    I would have expected it to behave like an export which would write synonyms, exclude keywords that should be excluded, etc, which seems to work ok in point 6 above.
    Yes, that's a reasonable expectation.
    You may have done this already, but double-check: Right-click the Smugmug publishing service in the left-hand column of the Library, select Edit Settings, and in the Metadata section verify that you have Include: All Metadata set.
    Did you download the Smugmug plugin from Smugmug? You might try this Smugmug plugin instead -- the author designed the publishing architecture of LR and has an excellent reputation. 
    Are the publish services more effort than they are worth? So I get SmugMug to work, what happens when I try Flickr?
    I think many users find the publishing services are generally worthwhile.  I publish regularly to Flickr (using the built-in Flickr plugin, which isn't completely reliable) and the Zenfolio plugin from Friedl. 

  • Can't read or write some files, internet is failing, youtube won't load, software I tried to install was in Slovenian, not dutch or english like in my systempreferences settings, pictures and files won't preview with spacebar, etc. Malware?

    Specs:
    iMac 10.8.5
    3,4 GHz Intel Core i7
    32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Can't read or write some files, internet is failing, youtube won't load, security software I tried to install was in Slovenian, not dutch or english like in my systempreferences settings, pictures and files won't preview with spacebar and are randomly corrupted, when I entered something in the Youtube searchbar (when it was still working) it send me to a site with sexadds.
    I tried restart my iMac and when I was logged back in, my dock preferences were reset.
    Also tried to download some security software to check my Mac for malware, but when I did, I tried several, I got a notification that said something like 'dumpfiles (don't know if this is the right translation...) damaged'.
    I'm taking screenshots from all the weird notifications I get and even three quarters off the screenshots I took in the last three hours are already unreadable.
    It started this morning when I tried opening a Premiere Pro file on which I worked the night before.
    When I tried opening it, it said the file was damaged and could not be openend.
    I tried opening it with AE or importing the file in a new project but nothing helped.
    When I tried looking for autosaves, this is the really weird part, there were none.
    Even though there are autosaves from my other projects, this one was completely gone.
    It looked like the day before never happened on my computer.
    Also when I openend Premiere all the recent projects had been wiped.
    So at first I thought it was a Premiere Pro failure.
    But than, later on the day, I tried loading some RAW files from my compact flash card.
    This is where I would get an error (error -36) which said some data cannot be read or written.
    I tried importing the files with a view different technics, from dragging to importing via Lightroom and I succeeded with Image Browser.
    But when I tried moving the files to an other folder the same error occurred.
    While dealing with this issue I wanted to put on some soothing music on youtube.
    This is when the next weird thing occurred: youtube wasn't completely loading in Chrome. I refreshed a view times, checked the internet connection and still no difference.
    When I tried in Safari it did work but when I clicked enter on the searchbar in Youtube, a page with sexadds appeared (I didn't install AdBlock in Safari...).
    I read about this 'phishing' where you are redirected to a site were a possible malware installment can take place...
    I don't know if it's connected to any of the problems I've been having but I just never experienced this on a mac, I have been a Mac user for 10 years now.
    On top of it all, internet started working worse and worse and now it's not even working at all. I had to fill in the password over and over, normally it remembers.
    Just like my system preferences, all the preferences I had with Chrome where also reset.
    Also somewhere in between I got this notification: Mac OS X must restore library to run programs. Type your password to allow.
    To me this is all very weird and suspicious. I have clearly no idea what's going on. Could this be another sort of trojan horse or malware?
    Some background info which could be helpful for solving this mystery:
    two months ago the one year old Fusion Drive in my iMac just broke out of nowhere.
    I got it replaced by a qualified apple repair store.
    When I got my computer back, all the files where gone.
    I got on the internet without AdBlock installed yet.
    A game or whatever it was, can't clearly remember, got installed by accident.
    I deleted it immediately.
    Only two weeks later, I couldn't log in to my account. It didn't recognize my password and username. 
    So I brought my mac back to the store.
    Here the repair guy said it was a minor thing and he just needed to reconnect my account. He also mentioned he found a downloaded game name Sparta and it probably had something to do with the error.
    I asked him; could it be a virus? He replied no way.
    I don't know why I couldn't be a virus, just because it's a mac doesn't mean it cannot be done.
    So today I tried installing anti virus software (such as avast- was in a weird language looked like slovenian, clamxav - was in slovenian) but I couldn't install them.
    PLEASE help me! I don't know what to do anymore, I work fulltime and I need my computer, I have no time to bring it in for repair, are there other perhaps easier ways?
    Could this be the work of a virus or a malware? Or is it a disk permissions issue?

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • Help required please. "Itunes can not read the contents of my iphone"

    Greetings all,
    I know this question has been asked before and I apologize for asking again but all the solutions provided don't seam to work for me, can anyone help me please.
    I am receving the message: "Itunes can not read the contents of the iPhone. Go to the summary tab In iPhone Preferences and click restore torestore this Iphone to factory settings".
    Now a little about my iphone, Itunes and my laptop and what steps i havealready tried.
    I have an iPhone 4 running software 5.0
    My itunes version is 10.5.0.142
    I know these are not the most up to date versions but I have had this issue for almost 3 months now and updating the software back then was the first step I tried. I don’t believe updating to the latest will fix this issue as updating the last two times did nothing.
    Every so often after starting Itunes, The program will stop responding and will require the three finger death kill (CTRL, ALT, DELETE) to open task manager to end the task of Itunes. Once it shuts down, I restart the iTunes and it runs smoothly, apart from not reading my iPhone.
    When I run a diagnostic in itunes under the help tab, I get these fail messages:
    Network Connectivity test: Secure link to Itunes store fail
    Device connectivity test: Under support services: Itunes helper is not running. And under ports: No iPod, iPhone or iPad found.
    Device Sync test: No iPod touch, iPhone or iPad found.
    *See below for full diagnostic report*
    I have restored back to factory settings twice.
    I have shut down and restarted both my iPhone and laptop.
    I am running Windows 7 32-bit on my laptop.
    I am using ZoneAlarm as my fire wall, and have been disabling it when syncing my iPhone to prevent other error messages.
    The iPhone is plugged into a genuine Iphone USB cable and is plugged into a USB port not a USB hub on my laptop, I have tried plugging it into all 4 USB ports and this issue still persist. The Cable is less then 5 months old, is not frayed or damaged in any way, have also borrowed 2 other cables from friends and still the same issue.
    The iPhone does not even come up in windows explorer as a digital camera.
    The iPhone is NOT jailbroken
    I do not live close to a so called genius bar, however I have made the journey to them on 3 separate occasions last year when I first received my iPhone for a different issue, the so called genius's could not fix the problem so they just gave me a new (refurbished) iPhone, which did not extend my warranty. I will not be taking the iPhone back to them as I believe they can not resolve many issues, this is why I am reaching out to the power of the people in the wider apple community.
    I have read in other forums about ifunbox and other programs for jail broken iPhones to isolate folders “iTunesDB” and "iTunesCDB" and delete them. If this is the issue is there a way to access these files through windows explorer as my iphone is not jailbroken.
    I hope I have provided enough information and someone can help me fix this issue. If I have left anything out, please let me know. I thank everyone in advance for your patience and support.
    Thanks
