ITunes: filenames are truncated to 37 characters

I downloaded podcasts from the internet with itunes. the filenames appear correctly in iTunes but on the hard drive (My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Podcasts\)
filenames are truncated to 37 characters. Any idea how to get the full filenames?
using Windows XP SP2
iTunes 6.0.5

FYI this isn't entirely benign. i've had this cause actions to OVERWRITE files without giving any warning. specifically if a batch action is done on a bunch of files with long filenames with numbers at the end. the numbers are omited and so every file has the same name and is over written as the action progresses. this would overwrite an unnumbered but same named file too.

OSX Server webdav bug? - files and folders disappears when filenames are fewer than 7 characters

OSX Server webdav bug? - files and folders disappears when filenames are fewer than 7 characters
Dear Community,
i have a BIG problem with Apple webdav.
All files or folders with fewer than 7 characters in filename disappear.
The problems is only between Mac Server and Mac Clients
and exists since OSX Server 1 (Server 10.7, 10.8, 10.9) on ALL Macs i know.
The problem persist ever and occurs in the following settings:
Mac Server (1.x, 2.x, 3.x) <> Mac Clients (10.7.x, 10.8.x, 10.9.x, 10.6 not tested)
The problem does NOT occur in the following settings:
Mac Server <> Windows Clients
Mac Server <> Linux Clients
Linux Server (my Webhoster) <> Mac Clients
Windows Server (my Webhoster) <> Mac Clients
So i think it is not a problem with server itselv or a single client only,
it is probaly a problem with the combination betwen mac servers and mac clients.
This is NOT a problem with MY MacServers/Clients only and not with only one Server.
It occurs in many different Places and many different Machines.
I have contact Apple Support more then tree times (always when i setup a new machine with server.app)
but she said they heard first time about that and she cannot reproduce that problem.
please, can somebody try it out?
sorry for my bad englisch.
best regards
rené

Supplement note:
The Problem occurs also between OSX Server <> OpenWRT (Linux)

Bookmark titles being truncated at 40 characters

I have created heading styles (H1-H5) in my Word Document. When I convert the file to a PDF and create Bookmarks, the long heading titles are truncated at 40 characters when I create the Bookmark structure. Any advice for fixing the truncation issue?
I am using Adober Acrobat X Pro.

The error/issue is not with Acrobat. As you save the Word file as a PDF open the 'options' box and check the box 'Create bookmarks using headings'; all heading text should be displayed in the bookmark without truncation.

HT1642 iTunes and Contacts are only showing illegible characters

I must have deleted one of the system fonts! Now iTunes and Contacts are only showing illegible characters.
Is there any way to restore them? I migrated my old data from an old iMac to the new one, at one point it did ask about a font not being compatible or something, and i guess i made the wrong choice and deleted it/disabled it.
at the moment iYunes and Contacts only show illegible characters in the menu bar.

thanks for the suggestion! i tried that but it didn't work. I ended up downloading iTunes again - the fonts were then restored in place again too. Thankfully that seemed to do the trick for Contacts too. Phew!
thank you again

Filename and path sizes and characters

I am failing to load 4000+ tracks to my Ipod from my XP machine using Itunes 7.50.0.20. This is an Ipod Clickwheel 20GB. I want to load 17.86GB in the now empty Ipod. However it gets so far then stops saying there is not enough space.
I wonder if am I getting the wrong message?
Some of my tracks have very long filenames/paths e.g 124 charactere filenames and 213 character paths. I also have some filenames with " (double quote) in.
Could this be the reason?
If so what characters must I avoid and what size should the filename and paths be limited to?

Filenames and paths are irrelevant. They are renamed on the iPod anyway.
20 GB is not really 20. It is a rounded number all HD manufacturers use. Plus you lose some space due to formatting and the iPod software. There is also meta data for the songs which takes some space.

Parameter labels are truncated

Hi All,
I'm using BI Publisher 11.1.1.6.
I create reports based on Excel and RTF templates in order to generate Excel or PDF reports.
In the DM I define my parameters and their labels.
When I run the report or try to see the XML output, in the parameter pane all the parameter labels are truncated.
Let say I define a parameter as that:
Name Data Type Parameter Type
P_NAME String Text
And then in the detail of this parameter:
Display Label : Enter Name (% is allowed) :
Once in the Report (or the XML output) execution window the label is truncated at 23 characters
my label become :
Enter Name (% is allowe...
Does someone ever experienced this ? and do you have a workaround to display the full label?
I've try to modify parameter properties, report properties... but nothing change, I can not have more that 23 characters...
I've searched on Metalink, communities .... but didn't find anything...
Thank you in advance for your help

HT201272 songs are truncated in download

songs are truncated after album was downloaded. what can i do to get a complete download?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app on your iOS device.

ALV last 10 columns are truncating in background mode

I am using Reuse_alv_list_display function module and running the report in the background mode, the spool is generating fine but the problem is that the last 10 columns of the report are truncating.what will be the possible solution.

The default maximum line width of the spool is 255 characters which means anything more the 255 will be truncated, To display more the 255 characters you have to do two things:
1] select a printer format which outputs more than 255 characters for eg x_65_512 or x_65_1023. If you cannot find any printer which has these formats then you have to ask the basis guys to create Z format for you like Z_65_1023.
2] After you use the above format of the printer when you display the spool there is an option of "DISPLAY IN MAXIMUM WIDTH" in the tool bar. Choose that it will show you the entire output.

I have the same problem except almost every song I bought from Itunes has this problem. Not only that, but somehow some of the music, about $125 worth has been deleted form my 3 back up discs. This is only happening with my purchases and not any songs I uploaded from cd. How on earth did this happen, and how did it wipe clean 3 different back ups? I have found some of the music where it belongs, but like I said some of them are gone, gone, gone. I run three different back ups and they are on 24/7. Where is all of this music? I still have it on my ipod, but it will not load back into itunes the way purchases used to. Some of the music is purchased straight to my ipod touch, but shouldn't i be able to reload them into itunes? I spent 3 hours going 1 song at a time reloading them from their original location. But I cannot locate about $125 worth of music that I purchased from itunes. I have 6 macs in my family and preach the good news to all who will listen about hows macs are flawless. Now I have egg all over my face and have thrown away a nice sum of money on missing music. Please help!

HT201272 Songs purchased on iStore are truncated. Why?

Some (not all) songs purchased today from iStore are truncated. The time shown in iTunes and on a Sync'd iPod appears to be correct, but part-way through the song it jumps to the next song. This always happens in the same place within a given song, but it's not the same place for each song.
I've seen a reference to the Crossfade playback option but that's not causing the truncation in my case (Crossfade is disabled).
Any ideas what has caused this? I noticed it on one song purchased a few weeks ago, but having purchased 4 albums today it appears to be impacting nearly half the songs. I'm running the latest iTunes version, installed today (v10.6.3.25).
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Only parts of my songs from itunes match are downloading onto my phone. The full song plays fine on computer but not on iphone

I recently purchased Itunes match to download some of the songs from my library onto my phone. Everything downloaded fine. At least I thought, until I tried to listen to my music on my phone. I found that some of the songs that were downloaded from the itunes match are not fully there. The full song plays fine on my computer, however on my phone it will only play a part of the song and then immediately cut off and skip to the next song, while the display still says the other song should be playing. I tried turning off the itunes match and just re-synching the music from my computer itunes library to my phone but still encounerted the same problem. Is there an easier way of fixing this, or do I have to basically restore my whole phone?

Did you let the scan in iTunes finish before you enabled the service on the iPhone? If not you need to. Disable iTM on the iPhone, then launch the Music app and let the content clear out. Once the scan is complete in iTunes re-enable iTM on the iPhone.

Hard drive crashed awhile ago, got new one but now some of my purchased iTunes songs are showing they are downloaded but NOT in library and it won't let me download to library. any help?

Asking for help getting previous purchases on my ipod touch and iPad... my computer hard drive crashed and I replaced it. My music was a mess. I restored most back but some of my purchased music is saying it is downloaded but it is nowhere to be found. I don't understand why I can't get the music I already paid for back in my library. Any help? would be appreciated...

You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Are you doing this?
You have to sign in and download each iTunes account individually.
