Itunes keeps deleting my music and videos every time I add something new and it updates. It only keeps purchased items.

But it says it's still got those files. But then, every time I click on the files it gives me this.
Despite the fact that those files are already in my itunes library. What gives? Is it a bug? Do I need to remove itunes and install it again or would that not help?

I am having the same issue now for the past week.Whenever I add new music it completely wipes out the previously added songs on the iphone. It is extremely frustrating.

I have purchased apps in the past and now every time I download a new app my IPad notifies me that they cannot be purchased at the time. For example, tap tap revenge and 11 others cannot be purchased at the time. How can I get rid of it?

Semi - Smart Albums - all I want is to update iPhoto every time I add a new

after reading the iPhoto Help files descriptions of Standard and Smart - Im after Semi - Smart.
Standard: You can also create an album by dragging a folder of photos from the Finder into an empty part of iPhoto's Source list. iPhoto creates an album with the folder's name and imports all photos contained in the folder.
- but what iPhoto 6 wont do is automatically update itself every time I add a new pic into the source folder.
Smart Folder: "You can make a Smart Album that contains only certain types of photos, photos with high ratings, or photos that match other criteria, including EXIF information, such as a specific shutter speed or camera model....
iPhoto automatically modifies a Smart Album when any photo that matches the album's settings is added to or removed from your library."
but what iPhoto 6 wont do is to simply capture the folder name as Ive named it in my source folder structure.
So Im after:
a. drag a folder ( for example, cars, gemstones, Klimit art) into the iPhoto source pane, it becomes a semi-smart folder in that it watches every new change I make to the source files on my computer. I add a file, iPhoto 6 adds it. I delete one, it deletes it. I mod it - you get the game here.
Do I need to upgrade iPhoto to handle this rudimentary task ? Seems like this action would be built in - am I missing something here ?
TIA

will try that out, thanks for the tip.
Who would want to have to use Automator or Applescript to make such a rudimentary function enabled within iPhoto ? I would guess 95% of Mac users never use those things. The whole point of Mac is to keep your life from having to descend into mundane technical details, thus freeing one for more time with life's higher level tasks. This should be basic from-day-one type behavior in any photo app.
Will chime back in on how difficult it get iPhoto to auto-update itself with every new pic I add/subtract to these watched folders.

Every time I download a new app or update an old one it doesn't work. It gives an error message saying it is unable to download the application. I have 2 choices. Retry or done. Retry doesn't work so I press done. What can I do to fix this?

Try using Google's DNS instead of the one your IPS is providing.
- To change on the iPod go to Settings>wifi and change the DNS to 8.8.8.8
- For the computer see:
Public DNS — Google Developers
- Did anything happen to your router right before this started? Maybe the router is blocking the port used.

My operating system is Windows Vista and my Itunes version is 10.2.2.12
please help

Your problem is normally caused by a program locking the iTunes library so that iTunes can't close properly. There have been a number of causes fro this.
There is a problem with media management software Vaio xml library Manager, the Vaio content manager and the Vaio Music Box software
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8537277#8537277
Work around:
In Control Panel, turn off Vaio Content Folder Watcher and VAIO Content Metadata Intelligent Analyzing Manager.

Sony has issued upgrades for some models, check you Sony download site to see if there is one available.
I would check the work around first.
If that's not it, try temporarily disabling you continuous backup to see if that is the cause.

Hey Folks! How do I permanently delete iTunes extras from downloading every time I download something new?

I have downloaded movies from iTunes store and those movies come with an automatic download of iTunes extras (which I don't want). I stop the downloads of the iTunes extras and delete them, but everytime I download anything NEW from the iTunes store the OLD iTunes extras automatically pick up and start downloading again even though I've previously stopped and deleted them? Very frustrating! I've searched many forums and across the interweb but haven't found anything that works. Help???
Thanks!

How can I disable the automatic opening on the Backup Assistant Plus website (and video) every time I connect my Droid 4 to my computer?

I am a mobile application developer (iOS and Android).
Our company bought an unlocked phone.
We have no need for backups.
Every time I plug our Droid 4 into the host computer (a Mac),
it automatically opens this website:
http://products.verizonwireless.com/index.aspx?id=fnd_backupAssistantPlus&vid=1
This is *REALLY* annoying.
Is there any way to disable this (and if so, how)?
Thanks,
Chuck

This can be a highly frustrating problem. I just spent 45 minutes working on an email. Nearing the end I go to grab my mouse after typing and accidentally hit mouse 4 and lose everything. This isn't the first time I have lost work or an email. I would say the ONLY reason why there currently lacks a strong feedback against this is because the majority of people do not have mouse 4+5 buttons on their mice. Please add the option to just disable this "feature". It's just far to easy to accidentally hit these buttons accidentally and potentially lose a lot. I don't know anyone who actually uses these buttons anyways.

Every time I add a new MP3 file to my desktop, iTunes automatically adds it to a "New Playlist"! How do I disable this feature?

I want to know how to stop iTunes from creating a New Playlist everytime I put an MP3 file on my desktop. I mix a lot of music and no matter what Audio Format (I prefer MP3) I change it to, it always does the same. How can I stop it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

My iPhone 4S's music volume jumps every time I get a new email. Is this a bug? or is this intended behavior?

I am listening to music on my iPhone 4S (iOS 5) through headphones, and any time I get an email, the email notification plays, and then the volume of the music jumps up a few levels.
Is this a known bug or is this intended behavior? It is pretty annoying.

I didn't break stuff inside it. It's a known Apple fault that happens whether you are extra careful with it or not.
In saying that, I didn't ask about tips on how to prevent scratches/bumps happening because I already know. I am careful with it, I only dropped it once leading to very small chip on the back. What I asked you is whether Apple will take that into account much when deciding whether to replace it for the KNOWN Apple fault.

Every time I add a new page of pictures, it rebuilds entire site.

and even if I create a new "Site" it rebuilds the entire set of sites.
(eg I created a subdomain xyz.com/subsite, and it still rebuilds everything else in xyz.com)
What am I doing wrong. I don't think this is related to the discussion of domains.
I'm trying to publish to a folder, not .Mac
WHY OH WHY CAN'T IT JUST REBUILD WHAT CHANGED!!!!
Please help if I'm missing something.
And no, I'm not going to spend 80 bucks or whatever upgrading something brain dead apple should have gotten right the first time. Why not support incremental building in the first place.

You can try to disable Sync temporarily to see if that makes it possible to create a folder.
Where are you creating this folder?
In the Library or elsewhere (Bookmarks menu, Bookmarks Toolbar, or Bookmarks sidebar)?

My remotes are not paired yet my remote is going with my computer and tv every time i move something on my tv it moves on my computer

My apple tv remote is not paired. So when I go to scroll on my tv it turns my computer up or turns music up? What am I doing wrong?

Pairing is a bit confusing.
Remotes know nothing about pairing, only the devices do.
The assumption is that a remote has a 'serial number' which is emitted with the IR command.
If the device/computer is paired with a remote it ignores commands from remotes with different 'serial numbers'.
Therefore an unpaired device responds to any remote whether or not it's paired to a particular device.
Options:
1 - pair the computer with a different remote and AppleTV with it's own remote.
2 - Disable IR receiver on computer - in Snow Leop[ard go to System Preferences>Security and on teh general tab you can disable remotes. Not sure if the preference is somewhere else in Lion or still there.

HT204085 Keep being asked for keychain id every time I open a new web page. How can I get this to stop?

First I was locked out of my computer. I followed some advice on how to delete keychain folder and make a new login keychain, which worked, but now I am constatnly being asked to put in the ID. How can I make this stop?

Open Firefox -> go to View Menu -> Page Style -> select "No Style"
Now the pages will open in your suggested font sizes. Check and tell if its working.

Every time you send something new for me to download, what you send NEVER EVER connects to the server, even if I let it stay active all night long.

I've said it ALL in my original statement.
Either YOU cannot connect to the server to which you must connect, or something is wrong on MY END.
I don't have a lot of time. Please look into this and either fix it or tell me what to do to fix it.
Thank you.

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
*Firefox 26.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
