ITunes / Gracenote recognized audio cds on one computer but not another!

What tha....I was importing purchased retail cds (albeit old ones) on my iMac Intel OS 10.4.11 + iTunes 9.0.2.(25) and Gracenote recognized the artist, album cover & tracks no problem. Then I tried importing the same cds onto our MacBook (Intel) using SAME (seemingly) software: OS 10.4.11 + iTunes 9.0.2 (25) and I got the message, "This CD was not found in the CDDB database." If that is the case, what database was the iMac querrying? This has happened to 3 George Howard cds so far.
Anyone come across this problem? Any advice?

I have also had "recognition" problems with CDDB Gracenote.
The latest, incredibly, was a Sinatra CD entitled "Where are you?" - one of his classics, which I can clearly see on the Gracenote website Capitol CDP 7 91209 2.
I have sent feedback to: http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
and suggest others do the same - eventually the message gets through !

  • Store credit shows up on one computer, but not another

    Happy Easter everyone,
    I was wondering why my store credit shows up on one authorized computer, but not another? Is there a way to fix this? Or will I just have to make my purchases on that computer?
    Thanks
    Jason

    An account's balance should show wherever you use the account (computer's iTunes, and in the App Store, iTunes store and iBookstore on iOS devices). Have you tried logging out and back into the account on the computer that it's not showing : Store > Sign Out menu option, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option (my balance has sometimes been slow to update on my computers/devices)

  • Implicit read with assembly module instance working on one computer, but not another

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up an on-site computer to run a VI which uses assembly instances for data communication, but for some reason I'm unable to establish a connection to the PLC.
    I'm running the example vi "CreateAssemblyInstance.vi" to try and get the communication set up before I start using my actual program.
    When I run this code on my development machine, I'm able to establish a connection to the PLC and read data. I then go into RSLogix 5000 and change the IP address to the on-site machine and try to run the test VI there, but I'm unable to make a connection. LabVIEW-side, the program thinks that it's established a connection and is reading/writing data, but PLC-side I'm getting a "Connection Failed" message in RSLogix.
    I find it weird that LabVIEW thinks the connection was established just fine, which the RSLogix says it can't connect to the VI.
    Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen. We aren't sure why the same VI runs on one machine but not another. We used RSLogix to change the IP address of the target machine, so we don't think that's the issue. And both computers are on the same network, so we don't think it's a firewall issue either.
    LabVIEW-side, things should be identical. I'm running the same example VI that came with the Ethernet/IP module. PLC-side, we're changing the target IP of the module within RSLogix 5000 (and we're sending the updated information to the PLC) to match the machine we're trying to make a connection with. Are we missing any steps? This is the first time we've tried using an assembly module, so we're having a hard time troubleshooting.
    Any ideas on why this is happening?

    I'm pretty sure we're using a generic ethernet module:
    I can communicate explicitly with the problem computer, it's able to use 'Tag Read' and 'Tag Write' to communicate with the PLC.
    We started having another problem just recently too. The Tag Read and Write commands are almost always timing out. I keep getting the error message -251723752:
    Detailed error info: Error -251723752 occurred at EthernetIP Tag Read REAL.vi;Details: The request response was not received in the requested timeout period    Possible reason(s):  Ethernet/IP Industrial Protocol: (Hex 0xF0FF0018) The request response was not received in the requested timeout period
    I can't figure out what's causing this all of a sudden, could these issues be related?

  • Problem with SMTP from one computer but not another

    I have an iMac connected directly to my network via Ethernet and a MacBook Pro which connects via wireless. I have a program installed on my iMac that sends me alerts via e-mail, and it works just fine. When I try and use Mail, however, on my MBP with the exact same settings and credentials, it fails. To make this even more perplexing, Mail works fine from my office on a different network.
    To work around this, I use Comcast's SMTP server on my laptop, but why would my regular e-mail provider's SMTP work on one machine and not another on the same network? The only difference is one is connected via Ethernet and the other by wireless.
    I use a Time Capsule as my router and wireless access point. Has anyone got an idea about what's causing this?

    Please report the relationship, if any, of the "regular e-mail provider's SMTP" and your ISP? If Comcast is your ISP, they regularly block use of Port 25, but if you have selected Use Default Port in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information for the Outgoing Server, then it may be making the wrong choice to work with Comcast. Regardless of the ISP, for this regular account click on the arrows beside the name of the SMTP, choose Edit Server List, then click on the Advanced Tab that will then be seen and choose Use Custom Port, then enter the proper port directly -- that port is probably Port 587, but that could depend on the advisory of the email provider for using their SMTP.

  • Login to Mail from one computer but not another.

    I'm actually posting this on behalf of a senior Gent. We can login to his account from his main computer but not from his 'new' laptop. I've been helping him set it up (win7).
    Message says wrong password and try again in 15 mins.
    I logged into my account on the laptop ok. Using Chrome. I appreciate info is a bit sparse but just wondered if this rings any bells. Router has been re-set. I'm just of to try it IE, though it shouldn't make any difference. Thanks!

    Have you tried resetting the password. Thentry logging in with the laptop 1st  and check over the webmail settings - I don't use BTs webmail since I thinks its er ... poor (to be polite) but a pwd reset and new login from a new device has been suggested elsewhere here.

  • Flv option showing up on one computer but not another.

    at work on one computer the flv option in Compressor shows up when i add a "QuickTime export Component preset." however, it doesn't show up on one of the other computers. I don't remember if i did anything to get the flv option available in the first place. so i'm wondering if any body knows why it's not on the other computer. Do i not have the right version of flash on the computer?

    Thank you I was having the same problem...I had an export to flash working.. then I had to reformat.. and not it is gone.
    so I copied all the missing component ( FLV and a few others) however they are not showing up in compressor.

  • Have had crashes with one computer but not another. one that crashes has adobe flash payer 15 active x installed. should I uninstall it

    I have two dell computers - one with 7 and one with 8. have numerous crashes on 7 but not 8. noticed Adobe flash player 15 active x is installed on 7 but not 8. is this the problem. should I uninstall it?

    It’s very sad, but many of the software down-loaders / installers will trick you
    into installing not only their program, '''but other programs as well'''.
    You have heard of the '''fine print in shady contracts''', right? Well, some
    installers you need to look at the '''itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print'''.
    You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program
    you want by using the '''recommended''' option. But if you use the
    '''Manual Option Instead''', you discover all kinds of stuff that
    '''you do not even know what it is or what it does'''. From now on,
    everyone needs to '''Use The Manual Option''' to put a stop to this.

  • How do you get the sharing taskbar on iTunes? I have it on one computer but not the other and need it to transfer songs! Help!!

  • IPOD Shuffle recognized by USB on one PC but not another

    I have an iPod Shuffle 2nd generation that works fine (is recognized and usable) on my Toshiba laptop running iTunes 7.1.1.5, but when I try plugging it into a Dell Dimension 4600, it is an unrecognized piece of hardware. I even plug it into the same USB port that another iPod goes into and works fine.
    The Apple website says what to do if the USB drivers don't recognize it (update the drivers), but it is just showing up as an "other" piece of hardware (with the name "iPod" and the big yellow question mark).
    Any ideas?

    I have the same kind of problem. I installed the ipod on one comouter in my house, dont know what version of itunes but i dont think the latest one and registered it, then I installed it onto this pc with the latest version of itunes and windows dosemt recognise it. It makes me insall drivers like five times and sends me loads of messages saying things like it is installed and ready to use one minute, then found new hardware the next. And even now after I have installed everything and I dont get the messages anymore it still dosent come up in 'my computer.' Does anyone know what the problem could be?

  • Attachments -- why can I drag them off on one computer but not another??...

    Hello -- I have two different Mac Pro's, an iBook and a Snow iMac. (Everything running OS X 10.5.7 except the iMac is 10.3.9.) On most of the computers, when I look at an email in Mail that has an mp3 attachment, I can just click-and-drag it right onto the desktop, no problem. But on ONE Mac Pro I get the annoying message about "Do you want to download this?", so I click Download, and most of the time it does not download, though sometimes it will & iTunes opens up. BUT, I would prefer to just drag the attachment out of the email. I can't seem to find a Pref to tweak... Anybody got a solution for this annoyance? Thank you very much in advance.

  • IPod Mini says must restore on one computer but not another

    I have two computers. The one where most of my music is stored is running Windows XP. Each time I plug in my iPod it says I must restore it. I do this and it still says I must restore it again. I have tried a different cable but no success. When I connect same iPod to Windows Vista computer (has very little of my music) it connects fine. Any ideas?

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
    Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive

  • Library on one computer but not another

    I login to two authorized computers and can't see my library on one of them. My account balance shows up on each so I know it is the correct account. Why would my library not be visible on it?

    You need to put it there. Apple doesn't store these millions of user libraries on Apple servers for you to access wherever you are.
    Each person has to put their library on each PC.
    You can move your files over via home network, a USB stick if it's small, or an external hard drive if it's a large library.

  • ITunes 6 Dowloaded and working on one acount but not another

    We have a shared PC in this house and two of us have iPods.
    After hours of difficulty installing iTunes 6 and getting it to work by following lots of posts off here, completely cleaning the pc of itunes and quicktime and then installing the stand alone Quicktime followed by iTunes we can only get itunes to work on my account where all the downloads etc took place.
    My flat mate has administrator privileges etc, same as me. He gets an error message saying that a problem has been encountered, send error report etc every time he tries to open it.
    We tried to create him a completely new account and tried it on our other flatmates account but we still get the same error message.
    Anyone with any ideas greatly appreciated. We have had the same problem since installing iTunes 5!!

    hmmmm. okay, it wasn't quite the same error message, but Mark managed to hack his way out of something very similar just recently:

  • Time Capsule visible to one computer but not another

    I want to use Time Capsule for Time Machine backups of my MacBook Pro, running 10.5.2, and manual backups from my PowerBook, running 10.4.11. Everything is hunky dory for the MBP, but the PB cannot see the Time Capsule - meaning, the Time Capsule is not visible from the finder. I've tried looking for it using Go to Network, Disk Utility, and every other way I could think of. Both computers are on the same wireless network and can see each other. File Sharing is enabled on the Time Capsule. What am I missing?

    I used the Airport Utility to enable file sharing for each of my 3 Macs before connecting them. I don't know if this is necessary but I didn't have any problem
    Go to Airport Utility - Disks - File Sharing (click file sharing and enter credentials for each computer l, select read and write access)
