?! iTunes changed the names of audio selections on my CD

I inserted a CD a friend had made for me. When it opened in iTunes, the name of the CD had changed to "Claire Fontaine Presents" and the titles of the songs were changed to French songs. Anyone know anything about that?

iTunes pulls album information from the Gracenote database, which attempts to match unidentified disks via the number and length of the tracks, and apparently it found one which matched though of course incorrectly. You'll need to edit/enter the information for the tracks manually.

Is there a way to change the name of audio device inputs/outputs?

Hi there hope someone can help me. I use my macs primarily for music production and I have several audio cards both USB and PCI on my MacPro and I use external audio cards with my MacBook Pro both running Mountain Lion. As I have many different outputs I would like to rename them from their defaults, in other words I would like to rename "Headphones" to "Studio Monitors" and so on.
I have created Aggregate Devices which almost works as a solution as its possible to name them easily. The problem is with an Aggregate Device, the system Volume Control becomes greyed out and I can no longer change the volume using the Apple Keyboard.
I'm hoping that someone might be able to tell me which system file holds the names for the Audio Inputs and Outputs so that I can basically apply a bit of a hack to change my inputs and outputs to something a little more transparent? I don't mind applying tweaks to plist files etc as I have done this numerous times in the past to tweak some aspects of OS X.
The other solution would be to tweak the Aggregate Device settings to enable the volume control. Either option would be great especially when I am working on projects with friends who would be able to choose to listen to audio on a different set of monitors or headphones without having to ask me constantly which output is which.
All help appreciated!

These directions may be useful in the future but I was wondering how to change the actual name of the computer.
You know when you log into your iMac and then it loads all of your preferences?
Well at the very top of the login box, there is the name of your computer, I want to change that.
Not short names for Home folders.
Thank you though...
Any other suggestions or solutions?

Logic changing the names of audio files when I drag and drop into arrange

i am dropping some 44.1/24 bit files into logic and for some reason out of nowhere the names of the files are changed. it removes digits i have entered in the file for identification purposes, so i am no longer sure what they are, and seems to be replacing it with "#". could it have something to do with import settings? i have not changed any...

This happens because until recently Logic didn't handle long filenames very well.
Long filename support was added in Logic 9.1.x so I recommend upgrading to that version - or using shorter file/pathnames.
The #7875 bit appended to the name is the number of the disk block the file is stored at...

ITunes changes mp3 names

I have a bunch of MP3 audios I purchased online and when I "Add To Library" iTunes changes the names of the files. This causes some problems because it gets the files out of order. Is there any way to import without iTunes changing the file names?

The files are copied in to the iTune smedia folder and the filenames are change to the Name field of the ID3 tags.
Rename it in iTunes and it will rename the file.

ITunes Changes iPhone Name

In iTunes 12.0.1 when I connect my iPhone 4S running iOS 8.1.1 named Thom's iPhone 4S, iTunes changes the name to iPhone without me touching it. It doesn't do it all the time but more than 50% of the time the name for my iPhone comes up as a generic iPhone rather than the name I have set for it.
Is this happening to others? Or is it a glitch in my iTunes installation?

if you go into the summary page in itunes you can just click on the name of the phone and change it there

How do I change the 'names' of my iPhones on my MacBook Pro's iTunes?

I just upgraded my iPhone 4S to a 5, and shifted my 4S to replace my wife's 3GS, which I'll sell.
The problem is that the names of the phones and telephone numbers on iTunes are the old names/numbers. I know that I could just live with it but if there's a simple way to rename them I'd like to do it.
Any suggestions?

If you mean the name that appears in the iTunes side bar - select the name of the device with the mouse - you shuld get a highlight and a text ][ and then you can change the name.

Change the name in Automater, so it sticks in iTunes?

Hello everyone
I have this.. Well, minor problem. I have renamed an audiobook with Automater on my Mac in Finder, but when i import it into iTunes, it changes back to the original filename, "Track 01" and so on. I have manually changed the names in Finder, but it didn't stick in iTunes either.
How do i avoid changing all the files names in iTunes manually?

Hi,
Try this code this will convert the names first letter into capital and the remaining into small checking the space what you have asked for.. let the name be how big with the spaces.
even if the name is any kind of format that is if it is all capitals or all small or some capital some small.
Ex: raJa venKi rEddy or RAJA VENKI REDDY or raja venki reddy
it converts into Raja Venki Reddy.
DATA: w_name TYPE char20,
       w_name1 TYPE char20,
        w_final TYPE char20,
       w_i TYPE i.
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_name FOR w_name LOWER CASE,
               w_final FOR w_name LOWER CASE NO-DISPLAY.
LOOP AT s_name.
DO.
    SPLIT s_name-low AT space INTO w_name w_name1.
    IF w_name1 IS INITIAL AND w_name IS INITIAL.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    IF w_name NE ' '.
      w_i = STRLEN( w_name ).
      TRANSLATE w_name+0(1) TO UPPER CASE.
      TRANSLATE w_name+1(w_i) TO LOWER CASE.
      IF sy-index EQ 1.
        CONCATENATE w_name ' ' INTO w_final-low.
      ELSE.
        CONCATENATE w_final-low w_name INTO w_final-low SEPARATED BY
space.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
    MOVE w_name1 TO s_name-low.
ENDDO.
MODIFY s_name FROM w_final INDEX sy-tabix TRANSPORTING low.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT s_name.
WRITE:/ s_name-low.
ENDLOOP.

How can I change the name that my computer/iTunes assigned to my device?

When I hooked up my new 4s to my desktop, it asked if I wanted to start with a new device. I answered yes and the device was assigned a default name based on the name of the computer (which wasn't originally mine) so now iTunes recognizes the device as belonging to some dead guy I never met. Also the same first name as an ex-bf. Call me weird but this bothers me. How can I change the name of the device?

Select the device when it is connected to iTunes. Click in the device name on the summary tab. Enter what you want.

What happens when you try to change the Shuffle's name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes?
Is your iPod set up to manually manage its contents. For more information, see your iPod's User Guide.
