ITunes MP3 files don't work with other programs

I want my digital music files to be compatible with all other devices so I rip to MP3 using iTunes. The ID tags that iTunes puts on the MP3 files are not compatible with other players such as Windows Media Player and Creative. Does iTunes use a propriatary format for the tags? Am I doing something wrong?

  • ITunes Store files don't work with Realplayer or Windows Media Player

    I tried posting a question but it did not allow me so I am going to try posting it here. I need some help but not sure where to go to post the questions or what e-mail address I can use to e-mail the appropiate place to get help so if you can help me out that would be great.
    Problem 1. I won a ITunes gift card recently and set up a account and downloaded some music. Now the I just learned the file type cannot be played through Realplayer or Windows Media Player that are on my desktop nor can the tracks be put on to my MP3 player. I have deauthorized my computer and still no luck. Can anyone tell me if there is anything I can do so I can do what I mentioned above? If so what?
    Problem 2 - If there is no way to covert the music who do I get contact and how to go about getting a refund for the tracks purchased.
    Problem 3 - Sorta linked with #2 Once I get my refund applied to my account is there away for me to cancel my account and or transfer it to a person that does have a IPOD or is able to play Itumes files on their desktop?
    Thanxs in advance.

    Bluetooth Iphone 4 don't work with other device?

    Could be a problem with the contacts on your iPhone's connector.  Try cleaning the contacts using compressed dry compressed air, blowing on the contacts using your mouth being carefully not to spit, or using a very soft dry brush.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 no longer see's my scanner.  So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    I bought the Officejet 6500A Plus about one month and have experienced the very same problem. I tried to remedy this problem following suggestions in a number of different posts (static IP, router, firewalls etc), all to no avail. Last week I called support. The support I received by the tech over several hours and different days for a week was very good. However none of his suggestions corrected the connection issue. After today's recommended fix failed, he advised HP is aware of this issue with the 6500 and other affected printers. He claimed HP was working on a firmware upgrade. He did not know when the update would be provided. The tech also claimed HP acknowledged this problem in a written announcement. He agreed to email the announcement to me. I haven't received it. This has been the only problem I've had with the 6500

  • ITunes app file sharing not working with iOS 7.1.1

    After upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS 7.1.1, I can't use the app file sharing in the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7. I first noticed it with the Kindle Reader app but confirmed that it also isn't working with GoodReader, HDExplorer, and Notability. Any ideas?

    It continues to be UNREAL how Apple will release iOS software without testing it.  Yep.  They BROKE WIFI SYNC.  It no longer works on my iPhones or iPads either.  UNREAL!!!!!!

  • Links to .mp3 files don't work in OS5...?

    Hello all,
    Ever since upgrading to iOS5 - I can't play certain .mp3 files hosted on my server - this was not an issue in previous versions.
    Links like this: http://www.dksound.com/media/DK_Radio_3_2011.mp3
    appear broken on the iPad and Iphone but play just fine on other devices.
    Any suggestions
    Thank you
    Rasmus Schwenger

    Rasmus-
    Its your website as far as the iPad is concerned!  That doesn't mean that iOS 5 is not at fault.  I still think it would be worth providing the specifics to Apple at <iPad Feedback>.  There might be a simple correction that could be made to the next iOS 5 revision.
    At least some other websites do not have the problem, so there is most likely something in your website's HTML code that is different.  Is it possible to download the HTML code of other websites and compare with yours?

  • Itunes Toolbar Menus Don't work with Mouse

    I moved itunes from my laptop to my PC. Everything works fine except the toolbar menus. I can not access the toolbar menus with my mouse. I have to use the alt key to access the menus.
    Suggestions?
    Win 7 Sp1
    ipad
    Itunes 10.3.1.55

    I found out WHY this is happening. Evidently there is a bug of some sort in itunes? In Win 7 I have the task bar at the top of the screen. Moving the task bar to the bottom of the screen (the default) rresults in the menus working with my mouse. I do not have trouble with any other program.
    Any ideas?

  • Itunes not working with other programs

    I've been using Itunes for quite a while now, and never experienced a problem with it until now (with the release of itunes 7)...
    When I run another program with Itunes (games like World Of Warcraft / Counterstrike / Warcraft III) itunes stops working right. The current music gets played really bad ( it plays more fast and with lots of bad noise).. With the previous Itunes versions I did not had this problem and I really hate it I got it now, cause I love listening to some music while gaming..
    Can you help me?

    I am also having this same problem with iTunes conflicting with World of Warcraft. It has not occurred before the release of iTunes 7 and I would really like a solution to this problem because I enjoy listening to my music while on my game and at this time it is highly annoying to hear all the skips and scratches in the playback.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Not Responding (Freezing) When Working With Other Programs

    Hello,
    I have a performance issue with Premiere Pro 5.0.3 version. When I have the program open and bounce to another program or Windows Explorer window lets say to drag in an asset such as a music or video file and then when I make the Premiere window active the program does not respond for a good 15 seconds, then after some processing (you see the mouse icon change and hear the hard drive chugging), I am able to again work. This is happening every time I switch windows to work on something else. Even if I just click away to another window and click right back without doing anything else, it does this non responding action. It even says it in the title bar (Not responding). I am wasting so much time waiting for the program to respond.
    My system :
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Intel Core i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80 GHz
    8.00 GB of RAM
    Quadra 5800 Nvidia graphics card
    Drobo Pro 24 TB drive (where my project files, music & video files live) connected via iSCUSI
    Sonnet 4 TB raid drive (scratch disc) connect via ESATA
    Dual Monitors
    Please help!
    ~ Doug

    Doug,
    Similar had plagued earlier releases of CS5, but I thought that it had been addressed with the CS5.0.3 update. Maybe I am wrong.
    There were several other threads here, with similar problems. Maybe they contain some tips that will help. The "constant" seemed to be shifting focus from PrPro, and then back to PrPro.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Why does the GPS not work with other programs?

    It works ok with Blackberry maps. But there are about 5 or 6 programs that I use that will not lock GPS. The one that really florred me was the camera. I sit there and sit there waiting for the gps to lock on (turn from red to white) and nothing happens. We all know that google maps doesnt work (it only will use cell towers. After the STORM disater you would have thought RIM would have been a bit more careful with thier OS's. Hope they get a fix out soon.

    Hi Barbara
    Thanks for the response.
    I updated to Mavericks (10.9.3) and the organizer now appears to work.
    However, it is extremely slow in previewing photos that were already on
    the Mac and does not appear to be able to download photos from a Canon
    5DIII. It appears to start but then spins and spins. It ran overnight
    and was unresponsive this morning.
    Do you have any ideas as to what to do to make this work?

  • Mainstage crashes with certain memory upgrade that work with other programs

    I updated my memory from 2G to 4 but selected a cheaper brand that had good feedback. It works fine with all the programs but Mainstage seems to need a certain quality memory as the program crashed all the time after several minutes or so of playing, but oddly, the program completely disappeared from my screen when it crashed with the rest of the computer (a Macbook Pro 2.2) working fine. When I put the old memory back (2Gig) in it only crashed when the memory was full as it fills up continually, bit by bit, while you are playing. Anyway, I thought I would mention this in case someone has the same problem with a more 'value' memory. I am RMAing it and getting a better brand. This originally did this in Leopard but downgrading to Tiger I found the same problem. I am also using a Firewire rack, sound card. RME Fireface 800 that makes the instruments sound phenominal, I might say though may be consider overkill.

    I've used a number of budget Ram sticks in my day, and have never heard of Ram that is working properly but can't handle a load that another stick of the same type and capacity could handle. I do know that you're supposed to put 'matched pairs' into those MBP's in order to get the highest performance. If anyone reading this has more insight on the particular question, (ie. can certain brands of Ram not perform the same as other brands, excluding sticks that are faulty or damaged), I'd love to hear.
    I'm glad you're up and running, and I hope it wasn't the Ram since the Mainstage update seems to have alleviated the problem for you. Rember is the same test as Memtest, but with Memtest you boot up from the console, so it can check every sector of the Ram. Rember runs while you're running OSX so parts of the Ram can't be tested since it's being used by the OS.
