ITunes does not display Album name or song names

Just got my new Macbook. Loaded a few CDs into iTunes and then plugged in my Nano. Neither iTunes nor the Nano display the Album and Song info. Is there some setting or configuration I need to do first?

After doing a bit of searching I find that the song/album info is not on commercial CDs. I need to be "on-line" so that the info can be retrieved from a database. Hmmmm.........
I will give that a try.

Itunes does not display asrtist name in album view on remote

When viewing my music on my IPad using remote app in album view it no longer displays the artist's name un the album title, when using an older version of ITunes V 11.4.0.18 it was displayed.
Mini mac(2013) running Mavericks Ipad Air running ios 8.1 latest version if ITunes.
When I boot up my old PC using iTunes v11.4.0.8 and connect my pad to it the artist's name is displayed un the album name.
Does anyone know how to get the latest version of ITunes to do what v11xxxx did.

Thanks for info Stefan. I have gone back to using my music on my old PC on which ITunes was not updated (nor will it) . This gives me the functunality I need and will wait and see if Apple put out a patch to fix the artist display issue.
As an aside I have found an app for my old Motorola phone called Retune which very good, it does everything that Remote does and more.. It is a shame that my crappy old phone has a better music system than my expensive IPad.

IPod does not display album cover art

I recently updated to iTunes 9 and also bought a new MacBook Pro. Then I synced my old iPod color with my new Mac. Since then my iPod does not display the album art work anymore. I was looking through iTunes 9 for the option to display the artwork on the iPod because I remembered that setting from older versions but could not find it. Does iTunes 9 just asume my iPod can't display covers because it is a 4th gen even though it is the color version?

hi mduran, no i could not find any solution. My iPod (60gb, probably the same as yours) is filled to the top and has been before the iTunes update and then it worked fine. I think this is a bug in iTunes. It's interesting to see that this happens in the Mac and Windows version of iTunes. Is there any way of telling Apple about that so it will be in the next update?

My itunes does not get the names of all tracks which i import.

When i import a cd into itunes, it does not get any track names. Why is this.
Also, itunes does not connect to the music store. It tells me that i should check my connection etc etc. Are these problems related, and what can i do to fix it?

Let me guess, did you just install/upgrade iTunes?
If so, then it's surely your security software (firewall, web accelerator, privacy filters, etc) that is blocking iTunes.
The iTunes "upgrade" is actually an uninstall, then total new install, of iTunes and QuickTime. Many security packages such as Norton, Zone Alarm, Google Web accelerator, McAfee, PCillin (...the list is long) see this new iTunes install as a malicious threat, and block out the previous settings without telling you.
Go to your security software vendor's website and see if they have directions for allowing iTunes & QT back in the list of programs allowed to access the internet.

Nokia 5800 does not display contact names

With some of my contacts an incoming call with a Caller ID does not display the caller's name, although they are in my Contact List and the number is in a valid format.Same is the case for sms's from the same contact.I only have one entry of that contact in my phonebook...Any 1 facing the same issue?

This is inevitably caused by duplicate entry, (many posts already exist) check settings in options in contacts and make sure memory in use is phone memory. Then you need to go through contacts and make sure you don't have more than one name attached to each number .
Good Luck

ADF swing: JTabbedPane does not display column names.

Hi all,
I have created an ADF Panel, which allows the user to run a few simple queries against an Oracle database done using ADF view objects and ADF view links and ADF application module.
From the data control area I drag and drop a view link containing a query into a JTabbedPane. But when I run the ADF panel, JTabbedPane does not display the column headers from the SQL as opposed to JScrollPane which does.
Suppose you do a select * from departments(dep_id, manager, state_cd), you will see all column headers meaning dep_id, manager, state_cd, and under each column the corresponding data which was retuned by the SQL if you use JScrollPane. But if you use you use JTabbedPane then you would only see the data which was retuned by the SQL without seeing the column header names meaning dep_id, manager, state_cd.
What do I need to do to make JTabbedPane display columns headers?
I would appreciate your input.
Thanks.
Bobby A.

Hi,
JScrollPane should be used. You can add this into a JTabbedPane if you like. Not all Swing panel show table headers

ITunes does not display embedded metadata for my podcast

Tools in use:
Garageband (.m4a formatted files)
Blogger (http://gspodcast.blogspot.com)
Feedburner (http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/GeekSpeak)
iTunes (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=202319851)
I'm trying to figure out why iTunes is pulling in my blogger posted text instead of using the metadata embedded in my audio file for the GetInfo text descriptions.
As an example...
If you were to look at my Episode 1. The GetInfo data displayed reads:
Download Episode 1: iTunes Audio MP3 Audio The Road to Hellboy... We hang out with Writer/Director/Producer, Tad Stones and talk about past, present, and future, including his current project Hellboy: Sword of Storms. Lovely Copyright Stills Courtesy of Tad Stones Also... We discuss our Top News Stories. Recommended Movies. Recommended Comics. UPDATED: Podcast Notes... Transformers Cast List: Autobots Optimus Prime (MAC Truck) Bumblebee (VW Bug) Jazz - (Porsche) Ratchet - (Ambulance) Ironhide - (Fire van) Decepticons Megatron (was a Gun - Now an Alien Jet) Starscream (was an F15 Jet - Now an F22 Raptor) Brawl - (Tank) Bonecrusher - (Bulldozer) Barricade - (unconfirmed) Scorponok - (Scorpion) Frenzy - (Cassette tape) Blackout - (B1 bomber) Transcript of the Tad Stones Interview: Rich Text Format Plain Text Format
If it were pulling the embedded data it would have read:
Episode 1 - August 2006
Topics:
00:01:13 - Transformers Movie
00:16:50 - Batman Sequel
00:30:16 - Hellboy Sequel

Any idea why this is happening and what needs to be done to fix it?
This problem does not occur if the audio files are directly downloaded and then played. Only when subscribed to in iTunes.

You don't resubmit: you just follow the instructions in the page you mention, specifically adding the 'itunes:new-url' tag in the old feed. As you haven't published the URL for the old feed it's not possible to check it to see whether it's all correct.
When you have done this it might well take a day or two for the iTunes Store to catch up: it won't be immediate.

ITunes does not display my feed image as defined in the itunes:image tag

I set up a feed using a custom PHP script I wrote. This script creates an rss file that I will submit to apple once I have everything ironed out. right now the only thing left to fix is the missing feed image. I checked the xml and for the image I have:
*<itunes:image href="http://www.roaringbrookbaptistchurch.org/podcasts/feed/images/feedIcon.jp g" />*
I checked the image in a browser and it indeed exists and displays as expected, this is a test image not the final one. It is a 600x600 jpg. I am previewing my podcast in itunes using a direct link to this rss file.
Why is my image not showing up? I get some other image, not sure where it comes from, instead.

When you subscribe to a podcast feed, either from the Store or - as I assume you have done - from the 'Advanced' menu, the image referred to in that tag is not displayed. The images which are seen on selecting each episode have to be embedded in the actual media file: please see this page -
http://homepage.mac.com/rfwilmut/notes/faq.html#coverart
You will not see the image referenced in the feed until the podcast is actually accepted and shows in the Store.

ITunes does not show the names of my songs

I Was going to download a CD I have & when I put it in all iTunes would show was Track 1, Track 2, and so on. How do I change the names of the songs or get iTunes to recognize the song? Thanks for your help!

Insert the CD and select it in iTunes.
Go to menu Advanced -> Get CD track names.

Songs Located on iPhone but iTunes does not display it.

This is a really weird situation.
I tried to sync Smodcast episodes on my iPhone with iTunes. They wouldn't transfer over so I went into the iTunes folder manually found the files of the podcasts and added them to my library as music files. I then synced them to my iPhone and left for work. When I got to work I went to go play the podcast and wasn't showing up on my iPhone and was the only audio I had on my phone. I checked my storage space and says there is audio on my phone and it's taking up space.
I went home that night annoyed and tried plugging in my phone into my Alpine headunit. I searched for music on it and sure enough I was able to select the podcasts as audio music rather than an actual podcast. I plugged the phone into the computer when I got home and iTunes was saying there was no music on my phone but checking the capacity used/free also displayed there was audio on the phone.
How can I delete this audio without restoring the phone?

Just found the following info regarding non installation of iphone driver, do you know how I can get the correct driver reinstalled or updated
I have saved a copy of the report as a Pdf File but dont know how to attach it to this message do you have an email address I can send it to?????

After upgrading to 10.2.2.12 on windows XP SP3 , itunes does not display any summary info or buttons/options. The buttons work but it does not display the text on the button or the options available.

I recently upgraded the iTunes software to 10.2.2.12 on my Windows XP laptop. Since then, iTunes stopped displaying the Summary info
, the text on the buttons, the various drop down options. The buttons seem to be working but I can't tell what that button is supposed to do
or the option I am selecting. This is preventing me from syncing my photos to the laptop.
this was not a problem with the previous version of iTunes.
Actions taken :
- I tried downloading iTunes again and repairing the install. That did not fix it.
- Don't want to uninstall it as I am worried that I would lose all the songs and the purchases etc.
1. Has anyone encountered this ?
2. Is there a solution for this ?
Many thanks in advance for your time and help

b noir, my Windows 7 machine is having the exact same issue as nsadal, and I have already confirmed that all six of the Segoe UI fonts are installed on my computer. Are any other Windows users having this problem with the 10.2.2.12 iTunes release?
Yeah it does, although the problem predates version 10.2.2.12. It's been around since earlier-on in the version 10s (at least).
It's usually Segoe UI font trouble on the Windows 7 systems too. Unfortunately, the Vortical troubleshooting technique only works on XP and Vista systems, so dealing with the issue on a Windows 7 system is trickier. (There's a bunch of different possible issues relating to the fonts that could be in play, and so the treatment tends to depend on which issue in particular you've got with the Segoe_UI fonts.)

ITunes does not add album art though being added manually..

Hello people..
i have this problem, i just bought an iPod and used the iTunes 9 for the library and all. got some of the artwork from the store and some i downloaded manually and tried adding them..
now the thing is, it saved some of the artwork that i added manually and then it stopped doing that.. i tried restarting and closing iTunes and then opening it again, but it didn't work.. i don't know why!
any help please?

Would the problem album have all tracks by the same artist? If there are guest artists, your phone is not set up to Use Album Artists, and you're selecting the album via the Artist menu that might explain the issue.
For general tips see Grouping tracks into albums.
It may help to look at a concrete example with details of which tracks do and don't make it to the iPhone.

ITunes does not show album artwork for FLAC files

I add FLAC music files to iTunes via Fluke which works perfectly.
Then I add the album artworks to the albums as usual (select all songs/right click/get info/info/then drag and drop a previously downloaded .jpg file). The artwork is visible in the Artwork column, in the Cover Flow but not in the right click/get info/info/artwork.
Which would not be a problem itself, but I use a Logitech Squeezebox Duet and on the controller there is no artwork for albums with FLAC files.
It is only with FLACs, MP3s work fine.
Any idea, what is it all about?
Thanks!

I knew that.
That was really my question how to solve it if there is a workaround.

ITunes does not display Cyrillic characters correctly in Windows 7 Starter

I try to copy my songs from iTunes (9.0 running Mac OS X 10.6 Russian interface language) with tags containing Cyrillic characters (song name, artist, etc.) into iTunes 9.1 (russian interface) on netbook running Windows 7 Starter English. I do it via Home sharing option in iTunes.
Some songs with Russian titles displayed OK, but some of them display wrong characters (see attached screenshot).

New itunes does not display different device

On the new Itunes can you delete songs from one device but not the other. I do not see where it shows the device we are deleting from in the songs.

That's usually related to troubles with the Segoe_UI fonts on your system, tester. Unfortunately, dealing with the issue on a Windows 7 system is trickier than on XP or Vista. (There's a bunch of different possible issues relating to the fonts that could be in play, and so the treatment tends to depend on which issue in particular you've got with the Segoe_UI fonts.)
