ITunes replacing 256 bit songs with 128 bit songs

When I downloaded new applications from the App Store today, I noticed that my downloads in iTunes also downloaded six songs.  Upon further inspection, it replaced three Peter Gabriel Songs from the Album "So" with 128 bit versions, and moved my 256 bit versions to the trash.    I purchsed six songs, total, off of that album, but only three were replaced and deleted.
In addition to moving the above songs to the trash, it also sidelined a handful of songs by copying new versions, including:
I've been Everywhere, Johnny Cash, Unchained
Baby Baby, Amy Grant,  (no record of previous purchase from this same album)
New York, New York, Tony Bennett, Fifty Years (previously had a 128 bit version, and it downloaded a second 128 bit version)
Anyone else experience this?  You can easily check after the fact by sorting on recently modified songs, and see if you have any 128 bit versions, or if you don't empty your trash often, by looking for the "Original iTunes Purchases" in your trash.  This will show any files that have been deleted, but not sidelined.

I saw ginbear's post and looked again.  I had two more replaced files.  Appears they were replaced on 1/22 and 1/24 of this year.  I have a couple thousand iTunes tracks, and it only seems to replace a couple ever few months.  Luckily, I was able to retrieve the files.  One from a recent backup, and the other from a one-off copy I made just in case, the last time it happened.
Here's the response I received from Apple after pursuing it for a couple weeks the last time it happened.  They looked at specific tracks iTunes had downloaded.
I'm not sure what the representative is trying to say, but I was glad they looked into the issue.

Name, this issue is one that does not occur often (I myself have only encountered one other instance of this happening). This may have been caused by a technical error in the iTune Store itself resulting in the pre-upgraded file to download automatically to your account which has been only been known to happen on very rare occasion.
The other explanation may have been an error in iTunes, or with your iTunes library file that caused the 128-bit DRM files to replace your 256-bit DRM free files. For example, if your iTunes library was restored from an iTunes library file before the upgrade was made.
In any case, it is not the iTunes Store's intent to replace your music with pre-upgraded files so I am very glad to hear that you were able to recover your iTunes Plus music, and do not appear to have any files missing.
I want to make sure that you are able to enjoy your iTunes Plus music, so please feel fee to let me know if there is anything further I can assist you with in regards to your files. Thank you for your continued patience name. I hope you have an excellent day!

  • Where can I get Messaging Server 3.5 with 128-bit encryption?

    Where can I get Messaging Server 3.5 with 128-bit encryption?
    <P>
    Messaging Server 3.5 is available for export (40-bit encryption)
    and domestic (128-bit encryption). The domestic version includes
    support for Fortezza.

    It can be updated from any computer with an Internet connection but is best done from the computer which it normally syncs with. The update itself is free; if you have someone do it for you, you may be charged.

  • WLS (40-bit) to WLS (128 bit) installation

    Hopefully this will help shed some light on the subject.
    Terry
    If you receive the following warning:
    <I> <Security> WARNING: Exportable (weak) WebLogic Server build running and
    domestic (full) strength SSL license detected. Only exportable strength SSL
    connections will be accepted.
    This indicates that you have a full strength certificate but a weak strength
    build of the server. For full strength encryption there is a different WLS
    build. The generally-available (weak/40-bit) version of WLS 5. 1 supports
    512-bit certificates and 40-bit bulk data encryption. The full strength
    (128-bit) WLS 5.1 build supports 768-bit and 1024-bit certificates and
    128-bit bulk data encryption. Your sales contact can provide the required
    forms and a special URL to download the full strength build of WebLogic.
    The installation for the 128-bit version is the same as the installation for
    the 40-bit version. When converting to the 128-bit version a complete
    re-installation is necessary. If you are installing service packs, please
    note that although Service Packs 1-5 are the same for both the 40-bit and
    128-bit versions, SP6 for the 128-bit version is a controlled release. In
    order to obtain SP6 for WLS 5.1 (128-bit), you will need to contact your
    sales representative who will be able to provide a URL where it can be
    downloaded.
    Some other notes concerning the 128-bit installation. First, ensure that
    you are using the permanent license that has been updated with the 128-bit
    key. Second, for information on setting up WLS SSL (i.e. installing
    1024-bit security certificates), please see the documentation at:
    http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/classdocs/API_secure.html.
    It is my understanding that the difference between the 40-bit and 128-bit
    versions of WLS 5.1 is in the encryption/decryption module. Since the
    difference is limited to this particular module, transitioning from the
    40-bit to the 128-bit version should be transparent as far as WLCS (3.1.1
    SP1 & 2.01 SP2) is concerned. This is supported by the fact that there is a
    single version of WLCS for both domestic use and export use.
    A couple of general notes concerning WLCS 3.1.1/2.0.1 installations running
    on top of WLS 5.1 (40-bit or 128-bit) SP6:
    WLCS 3.1.1: To date, support cases have not been received with a WLCS
    3.1.1 installation running on top of WLS
    5.1 (40-bit/128-bit) SP6 where SP6 has been determined to be the
    problem.
    WLCS 2.0.1: With one minor exception (see Solution S-05838 below),
    support cases have not been received with a
    WLCS 2.0.1 installation running on top of WLS 5.1 (40-bit/128-bit) SP6
    where SP6 has been determined to be the
    problem.
    A couple of general notes concerning WLCS 2.01 and WLS 5.01 (40- or 128-bit)
    Service Packs 1-6:
    - There have been problems when using SP1, SP2 and SP3 for WLS 5.
    - Therefore, SP4 (minimum) is required.
    - To date, support cases have not been received where SP5 has been
    determined to be a problem.
    - There is one small issue related to SP6 (see Solution S-05838 below).
    Otherwise, support cases have not been
    received where SP6 has been determined to be a problem.
    - Following the SP6 installation, all the JSPs will need to be
    recompiled. Due to the custom tags used in WLCS 2.0.1,
    the JSPs cannot be pre-compiled. Therefore, recompiling will occur as
    the pages are accessed.
    Please see the release notes that accompany each service pack downloads for
    issues that are resolved with each particular
    service pack.
    Solution S-05838
    A better solution to the problem: WLCS 2.0.1 only: DataLoader script causes
    ASCClientException with WLS 5.1 SP6
    Old Solution:
    Use WLS 5.1 SP5 to run the DataLoader, THEN upgrade to SP6.
    New Solution:
    You can run the DataLoader without exceptions for WLCS 2.0.1 SP2 and WLS 5.1
    SP6 if you modify the script to use t3 socket connections instead of http.
    Open the DataLoader script for editing and change the two appearances of
    "http://" to "t3://".

    You need to contact your sales rep and get the domestic strength version of
    WLS.

  • Is it possible to use 32-bit firefox with 64-bit java plugin?

    Is it possible to use 32-bit firefox with 64-bit java plugin?
    I'd like to use 32-bit firefox and I already install 64-bit java plugin.
    Is that a right choice not to install 32-bit java plugin?
    Will these cause problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Nope - you need the 32bit Java to go with the 32bit Firefox if you want Java to run

  • Install new Dialog Instance on 64-bit Server with 32-bit database

    I need to set up a new Application Server for our current ECC 5.0 32-bit Oracle 9.2.0.7 Non Unicode Database.  The new server is x64-bit and will have Windows 2003 64-bit OS.  I am reading SAP notes 785888 and 814834 and need help understanding how exactly to do this.  The database server is 32-bit Windows 2003 and so is all the other application servers.  Do I use the Oracle 9.2.0 client for 32-bit Oracle and do I use the SAP ECC X64 Install Master in setting up the dialog instance or do I use the 32-bit Install master?  Has anyone done this type of setup before?  Thanks.

    Hi,
    all basic information is provide in note 785888.
    you want to install dialog install on 64bit windows for 32 bit central instance for that you should consider following.
    -> file system is accessible from both host  vice a versa for that you can create one use sapinst on 64 bit host with administrator authorization. and create same user on central instance with administrator authorization and same password.
    -> perform dialog instance installation using this user  ( i.e sapinst)
    -> if you want to use  dialog instance on 64 bit host with 64 bit kernel, install oracle client 10.2 for 64 bit on 64 bit host of windows. for media information check note 949116.
    ->use  non unicode kernel because central instance use non unicode kernel.
    -> most important 64 bit dialog instance required 64 bit kernel, SAPinst installation screen ABAP System > Instance Directories, where you are asked for the "Location of SAP System Executable", you choose "Yes, locate executables on central instance host", before choosing "Next". The executables for the dialog instance are installed to
    <sapglobalhost>\sapmnt\<sapsid>\SYS\exe\<nuc\uc>\NT<AMD64|IA64|I386>*
    so when you want to apply kernel patch you have to uncar the kernel package to this location.
    -> maintain the kernel patch level same on both host.

  • AP1200 dual SSID's with 128 bit encryption

    I trying to setup a AP1200 radio with two different SSID's with encryption.
    Each SSID must use a different 128 bit WEP encryption.
    Both SSID's must have simultaneous access to the wireless radio.
    I get the client & radio associated but can not pass
    data. And the Clients Link Speed is listed at 1Mbps.
    Any help on the would be greatly appreciated.

    I too have tried this (multiple SSIDs with multiple wep keys). After re-reading the document pointed to in the previous reply I still do not know how to set multiple WEP keys and assign them to the SSIDs. The document doesn't mention WEP keys at all.
    Anone have a sample config using more than 1 WEP key and multiple SSIDs?

  • JSSE with IE5.0 with 128 bit (Tomcat4.0)

    Hi,
    I'm using Tomcat4.0 with ssl (jsse) and it works properly except with IE5.0 (128 bit). I've heard that this is a bug of IE 5.0 but due to we want to reach as many customers as possible and secruity ist not as important I want to ask if somebody can tell me how I can reduce the RSA 128 to RSA 40 (for example) in order to let IE5.0 work properly.
    Thanx in advance
    Oliver

    Hi,
    I haven't solve that problem but I found out how to work around.
    I've forced TC to use the 40 bit cipher and then it works properly, less secure but even faster.
    If somebody needs to know how please email me.

  • Replace 32-bit files with 64-bit

    Hello!
    2 years ago when I upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6 not all system files were updated to 64-bit files - I still have some old 32-bit files. I have updated some of them successfully.
    What is the best way to this? Make a clean install of 10.7, or is there a way to update all files to 64-bit versions?

    Is there a reason you're looking at this?
    Mac OS X 10.6 booted with the 32-bit or 64-bit kernel runs both 32- and 64-bit stuff just fine.
    Mac OS X 10.7 boots 64-bit, and also runs both 32-bit stuff and 64-bit applications just fine.
    This also ignores images that are built "universal", that contain the executable code for various configurations.
    If you have a specific application you're interested in, you'll want to identify it.  (If there's a particular reason you need a 64-bit image, you'll also check with whomever provided it.)

  • My new iPod nano replacement isn't syncing with all my songs...

    Like the title say, my new iPod nano replacement isn't syncing with a number of my songs. They aparently aren't the correct format, however they range from imported CDs to purchased music from iTunes... They all appear to be the same 'kind'. Infact, it looks like none of my library has synced. What could be causing this? (The library worked on two different iPod touchs and the 1st gen iPod nano)
         Thanks guys!
    -- I had an idea shortly after posting this to restore it to factory settings... It seems to have fixed it.

    Theis is the iPod touch forum. I requested moderator move your post to the Nano forum.
    BTW, my 7G Nano synces fine with my WIn 8 PC.

  • Labview 64-bit running with 32-bit addons

    I ran into memory problem loading som data files, and I tried a workaround by installing Labview 64-bit, but found that the add-ons was not installed with it. 
    Now I needed to use sound and vibrations toolkit, so (being maybe a little too creative) I copied that toolkit over to the 64-bit Labview folder and everything seems to run.
    I can load the files and do my data analysis with no errors.
    Now the problem is that I don't really get how a 32-bit add-on can access the memory from the 64-bit core Labview. Does anyone have any ideas on why its running and why I don't get a memory access error.
    The results looks ok, but I don’t really trust them, due to the above mentioned problem in accessing memory  between 32-bit and 64-bit.
    regards

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Henrik.
    When using LabVIEW 32-bit on a 64-bit machine, all your VIs would run through the Windows-on-Windows emulation layer (WOW64) and this is also why we still have memory limitations on a 64-bit OS.
    When you are using LabVIEW 64-bit, and using a 32-bit toolkit, what's actually happening is the 64-bit LabVIEW kernel is recompiling the 32-bit VI into a 64-bit VI. Doing this changes the inherent memory characteristics and performance of the Sound and Vibration VI's (and all 32-bit VIs, for that matter). The newly converted 64-bit VI's, then, are being executed in the native 64-bit LabVIEW kernel.
    However, I would strongly advise you to install the toolkit the normal way. In the following document, you can see, that the Sound and Vibration Toolkit / Measurement Suite is in fact supported by a 64-bit version of LabVIEW.
    National Instruments Product Compatibility for Microsoft Windows 7
    After you install LabVIEW, you need to reinstall all your add-ons and drivers in order for that toolkit / driver to work with LabVIEW. When we install toolkits / driver, we only install support for the LabVIEW versions installed at that time.
    I hope this helps.

  • Linking 64 bit objects with 32 bit library(.so)

    Can we link x86 64 bit objects(*.o and *.a) with x86/32 bit i.e. ELFCLASS32 library (.so)?
    I tried to do this but snagged in errors -
    cc -fast -xarch=amd64 -o ABC a64_1.o a64_2.o L164.a -l32bitlib
    ld: fatal: file lib32bitlib.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
    Is any workaround available to solve this issue?

    You cannot mix 32-bit and 64-bit code in the same program. The entire program, including shared libraries that are linked, must all be 32-bit or all 64-bit. This rule applies on Solaris and Linux, on all platforms.
