ITunes Enhancement Suggestion

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to find the best way to submit a enhancement suggestion to Apple regarding the iTunes app and its interaction with my iPod...
Like many of you I carry my iPod many places and have a variety of music (thus the versatility of this product)...
However, outside of work I listen to music that might have explicit lyrics... But at work, due to my job its not feasible to have headphones on all the time... So I plug it into my speakers and listen to it quietly...
What I would like is a way in iTunes to flag a song with explicit lyrics... And then in the iTune change a flag (like the compilations) to either on or off... If I have it to exclude them it would skip them.. but as I leave the building and walk to my car, I could reenable them and thus let them play...
I mean this sounds worse than it is.. .I might only have a few songs with explicit lyrics... but then again some could be considered inappropriate for the business place... This feature would allow me to ensure that the music playing is appropriate for the setting around others... I could see this beneficial if you had kids in the car... Therefore the explicit lyrics wouldn't be visible and maybe need a code if you wanted to to reactivate it...
Any other takers on this?
And does anyone know how I would suggest this to Apple themselves? Or do they montior these newsgroups for ideas like this?
Please let me know... THanks

Hi lindaasw,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Do you have the latest version of iTunes for Windows installed? I would turn on the sidebar and the menu bar just to make sure you are seeing everything. If the iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps:
iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7

I can't burn a cd of my own created music. I either get the error 4261, or after "Checking media" the process stops and nothing further happens. Have tried different burn speeds and cds. Have re-installed iTunes.Any suggestions please?

Sounds like the CD drive died. Luckily they cost next to nothing to replace. Or get an external LaCie instead. I have a dual G4 1.25 and the CD drive was always so anemic I use a LaCie Porsche with it.

Flex Callouts - Usability enhancement suggestions

Usability enhancement suggestions for flex callouts widget
FIG demo. (The FIG forum seems to be locked, making it difficult to
add feedback there.)
Currently, clicking on callout expands to first level and
displays expando affordance on right. Suggest that it appear next
to the airplane (i.e. under the mouse), so the user is encouraged
to simply click a second time to see the second level expansion,
rather than scootch over to right every time. "But they don't need
to do that." Yes, exactly.
The close action when window is fully expanded can be handled
by orienting callout with the arrow pointing to upper left, and
balloon at lower right, so that the same "click in place" trick can
be employed.
Click here for example of
callouts/tooltips appearing to lower right of mouse.
This would then clearly convey that user can
click-click-click to cycle through the three states. So it's click
once to expand to show heading. Expando glyph appears under/near
mouse position attached to airplane. Click again to have the
heading expand *downward*, with a close "X" replacing the expando
glyph. Click again to close/return to initial state.

I'm getting an error code 9 when trying to restore apple tv 2 thru iTunes any suggestions?

I'm getting an error code 9 when trying to restore apple tv 2 thru iTunes any suggestions? the error comes up when itunes tries to verify the update. I hook the apple tv back to tv and says I need to connect to itunes. the original problem was the power went out and the apple tv light kept blinking. I tried restarting it but would not work. Any Suggetstions? Thank you.

Try again tomorrow. All Apple servers are undergoing a huge number of hits. I think tomorrow or even the next day, all upgrade and activation servers will be in better shape.
Any time millions of people want to do exactly the same thing online, there's always trouble, LOL.

Some Bugs and Enhancement Suggestions for Offline DB models

I really like the way that this area of JDeveloper is shaping up, but I have a couple of bugs and few suggestions for enhancements.
Bugs,
1) when adding an index to a table, you can't edit the index name. If the generated name is too long, it doesn't allow you to create the index.
2) When adding columns to an index, there is no LOV of columns so you have to manually type each one. It always defaults to the ?first column of the primary key? which seems odd.
A few enhancement suggestions:
1) on tables and columns it would be very helpful to be able to also have a logical name as well as a physical name
2) if we have a logical name, it would be then very helpful to be able to set the display properties to show the logical vs. physical table and column names
3) Tablespace objects. I would be okay if they were just the logical object (not necessarily generate DDL to create them). If I could use them as part of the table and index definitions.
4) Table partitioning.
5) Packages on a DB Diagram. Just for the documentation purpose of visually displaying all objects in an application.
6) Ability to create views based on synonyms. Currently, it only allows to pick a table or view.
Just a few items that I have encountered trying to design a full application in JDeveloper.
Thanks,
Gary

Gary,
thanks. I filed the enhancement request and bug based on your description

Enhancement Suggestion - Jdeveloper Code Editor

Hello,
I would like to make an enhancements suggestion for the JDeveloper code editor. I find the "history" tab of the source editor extremely useful when I'm trying new things and not sure if they would work. This tab helps me revert changes to a last known version. However, I see myself having to identify the previous correct version by date and time, which is kind of dicey. I do see there is also a description column, however, I'm not able to edit the description with a meaningful message that would help identify as last know good version quickly. Hence, my suggestion is that the history tab of the code editor allow the user to add tags / comments against each version for quick identification.
Hope the Oracle development is listening, and you'll have to excuse me for posting if this forum is the wrong place to make suggestion ( i didn't quite find any feedback feature on the Jdeveloper product page).
regards,
Rehan Yusuf

No problem Timo.
I don't think it's worth opening an SR for this. It looks like sub-pixel anti-aliasing isn't supported in the JDeveloper Code Editor, which is a shame, because that's the place where it's most needed.

Hi, in my older Itunes version next to my library I had Itunes "Genius" suggesting songs. I don't have it anymore

Hi, in my older Itunes version next to my library I had Itunes "Genius" suggesting songs. I don't have it anymore. Hpw do I reset it?

Go to iTunes prefs, general, Genius checkbox. It should be checked if you want it. Is it? If so, go to the Sidebar and look for Genius (should appear near SHARED or ITUNES DJ). Click it. Does it have a button for "turn on Genius"? If so, click that.

Putting division marks in continious dj mixes - " itunes enhanced "?

so I occasionaly download dj mixes from sites like xlr8r.com that claim to be "itunes enhanced". they are continious mixes - they show up as one song in itunes by one artist - but they have these nifty little division marks that indicate when a new track starts. with these division marks, you can skip to the next track within the song like you would on a normal album (i.e. hit the forward button and the player will jump to the next division mark). not only that, but the album photo changes with each division mark.
so does anyone know how to create these division marks? i have a dj set i wanted to do this to in itunes, so that you can jump to each track in the set and have a picture of the artist to correspond with it. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Hi, I've been having the same problems mentioned earlier in this discussion. Since my update to iTunes 9.0.3 (Mac) my application have been pausing on it's own while playing actively or in the background. The pausing can be for different time periods, it spontaneously starts playing again and even launch itself and play music on it's own. I hope Apple would pay more attention to it's costumers and provide a fix fast.

Enhancement suggestions

Just got a new Apple TV. I wondered if I really need it as my TV (Samsung 6 series) already got music streaming and internet capabilities. While I succeeded to a) get music played from Itunes, b) viewing photos and b) watching Youtube videos (a + b with the assistance of EyeConnect) this stand alone solution was brittle and far away from being sofa-compatible. The TV frequently lost the connection or I accidentally hit the wrong key and was back to TV functionality. The usability / ergonomy of Apple TV is superior to all you can do with the current internet capable TVs. Using an iphone as alternate remote control even gives you more comfort; the missing keyboard.
I have a few suggestions for future enhancements: a) more apps!! (e.g. an internet browser), why not apps from teh appstore just like for ipad or iphone? For watching photos, it would be a nice to have full HD resolution and directly watching iphoto slideshows.
I can really recommend this device, it has a very reasonable price.

it's the "remote" app in the app store.

ITunes Functionality Suggestions

Can Apple add the following suggestions to the 'wish list' for iTunes:
1) Stop ctl & click on tick box selecting/deselecting all tracks - this short cut is easily used by accident when selecting tracks for editing and effectively erases all previously selected tracks for syncing (so blooming annoying!). Selection of all tracks can be acheived by ctl/a anyway.
2) The option to store all selected tracks within iTunes. Preferably with multiple list storage (bit like a playlist). This can then be used to restore previous library selctions for syncing. This would be particularly useful if syncing with more than one iPod.
If anyone knows how to achieve these within the current product, please let me know.

IPod Classic won't sync and crashes iTunes. Suggestions?

Hi, hopefully someone can help me!
I have a 80GB iPod classic for 3/4 years, never had any syncing issues until now that weren't fixable by a reset.
However a few days ago I was at my parents' house and charged my iPod using their computer. The first time there was the standard message "This iPod is synced with another library" etc etc but subsequently it crashed iTunes. It was recognised by the computer as a portable media device, all the normal folders were there etc.
Now that I'm with my regular laptop, I'm having the same issues but have realised that the iPod won't sync. It crashes iTunes when it's connected and when I disconnect the iPod, should iTunes works but it displays the message: "The iPod cannot be synced. The required folder could not be found"
Any suggestions on how to fix this? I've tried updated my iTunes software and resetting the iPod (pushing menu and centre), but neither has had an effect.
Edit: I should add that since charging the iPod on the other computer, I have also had issues with the click wheel, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Thanks in advance!

AppleTV no longer appearing in iTunes. Suggestions?

Let me start off this post by saying that I work as a computer programmer, so I'm not unfamiliar with following support guides, etc. So with that said, please don't tell me to follow Apple Support for this, as I've done every single step out there.
I have a new AppleTV connected to my TV via HDMI. Everything was up and running just fine, I had over 100 gigs of music synced up to it, and then, after the latest iTunes 7.3 upgrade, it stopped recognising the device.
I have tried everything at this point, short of completely reinstalling the OS.
Closed & reopened iTunes, check.
Reinstall iTunes, check.
Restart computer, check.
Reboot router, check.
Try a different router, check.
Force DHCP release & renew, check.
Restore ATV to factory spec, check.
Pick new iTunes library, check.
Turn on port forwarding for UDP 5353, etc., check.
Place computer in DMZ, turn off all anti-virus & firewalls, check.
It just never shows up.
ATV gets on my network just fine, I can watch YouTube videos & movie trailers without a hitch, I've tried resyncing to a new iTunes library, etc., it simply doesn't work.
The only thing that has changed is iTunes, and since I cannot find an older copy, I can't try an older version to see if it appears in iTunes prior to 7.3.2 again.
Any suggestions? I am simply out of ideas and have spent hours trying to figure this out. I'm at the point where I'm about to either defenestrate it or sell it on eBay.

Hi Brad,
I saw that thread previously, unfortunately it didn't help me.
When I go to the Sources menu on ATV, my options are "Connect to new iTunes" and "Syncing". If I select the latter, per your instructions from AppleCare, the only option I get is, "Turn On Syncing". If I select that, I get a new passcode to enter into iTunes, but ATV never appears in iTunes to enter in that code.
I do not have "Change iTunes Library" as an option.
Furthermore, the ATV tab under iTunes Preferences does not have an ATV listed in the "The following ATVS are allowed to connect to iTunes" menu.
I am at my wits end with this device, I simply haven't the patience for trying every possible combination of activities to try and make this work.
Anyone interested in a 160 GB AppleTV?

I get error 2324 when trying to update itunes. Suggestions?

I get error code 2324 when trying to install the latest itunes. Any suggestions?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
