ITunes U dl's are mixed with my songs!

I am totally delighted that iTunes U(niversity) is available in 7.2. Wow!
So I downloaded easily some tracks from Stanford & UCBerkley - Philosophy.
2 new playlists (Philosophy) were created by iTunes
But the tracks are now mingled with my music song tracks! I don't want them there! I want them some place else: like in my Podcast library.
How can I move these 30+ traks out of my Music Library to Podcast library?
Mac mini (not Intel) Mac OS X (10.4.9) Mac mini OSX 10.4.9

Try this -> Re-Add Selected Tracks as Podcast

Maybe you have multiple accounts that's why your purchase history is empty. You can try checking for possible Apple IDs that's existing for you or you can ask for assistance from support.

How to delete the loadings list in the itunes store (1000 tunes are downloading with no reason)

Hi
I switched from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5c and now the itunes store app wants to download 1000 tunes (I guess it cannot try more) and it blocks.
I don't know how to delete the list (not one by one of course .
If someone has any clue to help
Thanks

Hi Francis,
Check the BADI "TRIP_WEB_CHECK" method "USER_CHECK_GENERAL_DATA".
Here based on the schema you can modify the "estimated cost" field.
Hope it helps.

# of Files in iTunes Music Folders Don't Agree with # of Songs

I regularly monitor the properties of my iTunes folders to ensure that my two computers and backup drives all agree. Recently, for the first time ever the number of files in iTunes Music / artist & album folders did not agree with the number of songs in them.
I tracked it down just artist folders starting with 'A'. The additional files were invisible even with 'show hidden files' selected. There were typically two per album folder and they took up storage space. A security scan did not show a problem. I got rid of them by transferring the music files to new artist & album folders and deleting the ones with the mystery files.
Does anyone know what could have caused this? I am running Windows 7 64b and have had to use the Task Manager to close iTunes a couple of times when it froze. Thanks.

+"And i have done a "Consolidate library". Has anyone else done the same check and noticed similar discrepancies? Are there possibly some files in the iTunes folder that do not end up in the iTunes program?"+
Consolidate will not help; it only looks at songs that are already in the library. Run File > Add Folder to Library on your iTunes folder. That will try to pick up any songs that are in the folder but not in the library. It will however skip any file that is not compatible with iTunes.

I lost all of my Itunes music because of an infection that required them to wipe my computer. I am trying to get the music back from multiple sources. What I have recovered is a mess. Albums are mixed or songs not grouped as album. Help?

My computer got infected with some terrible virus. I contacted the manufacturer and they said the only thing to do was wipe the whole thing. I could not back it up bec this mess?ause it would include the infection. I have been trying to recover the lost music from several different places. A friend tried to help me by putting all of his music on my computer from his external hard drive. That was very nice of him but now it is a terrible mess. The recovered songs are not grouped into albums correctly. Some albums are mixed - every other song is from the other album. Some songs are listed separately and not grouped as an album. I tried to ask iTunes to find album art work and it has been running that for over 48 hours. Is that possible? When I try to stop it I get a message that says I will lose all the data. I admit that I am not very tech. savvy and I really don't know what I am doing. It took me more than 20 years to make that collection and I am heart broken. Do you have any ideas about how I start to fix

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

My iTunes is suddenly saying both my iPod & iPhone are synced with another computer, which they have not been.

I recently lost all of the music from my laptop's hard drive, and therefore from i-Tunes. I still have all of my music on my iPhone (3GS) (and a smaller version on my iPod Touch (3)), however when I try to sync them iTunes says the devices are synced with another computer & the only options I have is to erase the iPhone/iPod & sync with the very little music that has been able to be recovered back into iTunes, or to transfer the purchases. I have checked the computer is authorised for my iTunes account, and have transferred the purchases back. I really don't want to have to reload my CDs on when they are all on other devices.
Does anyone know why iTunes is suddenly not recognising devices it did previously, and how I get it to recognise them again? And most importantly, how I can transfer the music on my iPhone/iPod back into the laptop's iTunes?

The music was accidentally deleted as I was cleaning up my SafeSync account (like a Cloud) & I unwittingly deleted My Documents & My Music from my hard drive as I did so - these are the only files that were affected. So no catastrophic issue apart from me not knowing what I'm doing.
And IT guy performed a recovery for me but was only able to retrieve about 10% of my documents and only 45 songs of the 1700 or so I had. There is no up to date back up of my computer - trust me I've learnt a lesson there.
Since then iTunes doesn't recognise my devices as being synced to that computer, but there is no other computer for them to be synced to so I don't understand how this happened or how to fix it. I understand that my devices aren't back ups, but it seems stupid to lose the 1700 songs I have on my iPhone. I have transferred the purchases, but the majority of them are songs I've loaded from CDs & obviously it would be a very time consuming process to try to reload all of them - obviously something I would like to avoid if possible.

Itunes is mixing up my songs and titles

Hello, I recently changed from PC to Mac. I transfered all my music and everything was fine. All of the sudden after everything was fine for a week, my itunes started to play the wrong songs (or the index is off) When I play one song it says it is playing that song but another song actually plays or only the last half of another song and the first half of one are mix into a song. example: I hit play on "your the best thing" by Ray Lamontagne and it says it is playing that song but I hear "sabotage" by Beastie Boys. Or I played a Bob Dylan song and instead it started halfway through an Alanis Morsette song. It also transfers to my ipod this way. This has happened a few times now and I have to uninstall itunes then reinstall it, and reinstall all my music. This has never happened on my PC. Please someone help, Could it be because all my music is on an external drive??

Library files files are replaced with new files

Almost everyday, when i start iTunes my library files are replaced with new files & then i need to replce the new ones with my backup set

There are a couple of recommended methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer. Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one.
Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. Have a look at this article and see what you think and go for whichever you feel suits your needs best: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
Choosing the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" (called Sync Music - Selected playlists in iTunes 7) allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod ( for example, around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB Mini or Nano). You can read more about playlists at these links:

TS3672 4s texts on new ios 7 are incomplete or mixed with old messages

Hi All. I just downloaded the new IOS 7 software. I've had 2 different incidents where the message I sent was not what was received on the other end. In one case, the person received part of an old message I had sent them mixed with part of the new message I had just sent. In the second incident (just happened), the person only received the last half of my text. Are others having this issue? Is it fixable on my own or is it a bug that needs fixed by Apple? Also wonder if it's model specific (4S). Help?

Sorry, if your backup is corrupted, you can't use it.
Since the old phone was on ios 6 and the new phone is on ios 7 that is the compatibility issue.
did you ever import your pics to your computer? IF you did then you can use itunes to sync it back to your new phone.

Have a nice day!

I have an iphone 6 with the most recent iOS. iTunes Match is on. Music app only showing songs purchased on iTunes and no playlists are displayed. Just happened when updating iTunes Match. Solutons?

I have an iPhone 6 with 64 GB of memory. I have iTunes Match turned on my account and on the phone. Suddenly, the Music app is only displaying music purchased directly from iTunes and no playlists are displayed. This occurred after updating iTunes Match on my PC; when new music did not appear, I turned off iTunes Match off/on the PC then did the same on iPhone 6. It looks like iTunes Match is trying to do a full download to the phone but it never completes. Ideas?

Hi Moonage Daydreamer01,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues on your iPhone. If you continue to have issues with iTunes Match, you may find the information and troublehshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

1) I have multiple accounts at the iTunes store and none are now associated with my purchases...I think because passwords have been associated with various id’s and I can’t log in and access those purchases. I want to get back to being able to use one id and password and be able to access those purchases.
2) When I upgraded my iPhone 3gs, to the latest version 5.0.1 (9A405), is when I noticed that i couldn’t update my applications. There are two names/accounts on the phone and prior to the update there was just the one. I have tried entering every conceivable password that I have ever used and get the incorrect password error every time. The apps on the iPhone are apparently associated with several/different accounts. I just want to get everything back to the way it was. One id and one password with purchases associated with just one account that can be updated on my computer as well as my iPhone.

Hello sadiepix,
The following article details several things that can be done to quell iTunes' constant need for authorization.

HT204074 How do I see what devices are associated with my iTunes account?

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 contains this advice:
Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days. You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer:
Open iTunes.
Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
Sadly, "Manage Devices" isn't actually there, so I can find no way of seeing which devices and PCs are associated with my Apple ID and how to delete or add to them.

Manage devices relates to the devices or computers you have set up to automatically download content from your iTunes account aka "iTunes in the Cloud". You can have up to 10 such devices. This is a separate list from the list of 5 computers that can be authorized to play your protected content. There is no similar feature to list this second group, but when you get to 5 computers you can choose to deauthorize all and start again. You cannot use that feature again for a year.
