Looking for a "Now Playing" Screensaver

I have my music collection on a older G4 in my Office. It's not my main Mac. I'll usually just shuffle through music in the background. What I want is a screensaver that comes on when I'm not using the Mac that shows me info of the current track iTunes is playing, like song title, artist, album art, etc. I don't want to use front row because then I can't use the Mac for anything else and I often use remote on my iphone to control the music. Does anyone know if anything like this exists? Thanks

There doesn't appear to have been any reported problems with the store yesterday, if you say what the problems are that you are having then somebody on here might be able to try and help.

Looking for a recently played tracker

I'm using ITunes 8 and Tangerine BPM earlier to build my Jogging playlists, but i'm looking for something to tell me more than just the skip count, does any one know if any way, or any App, that can tell me at what point of a song skipped it.
Help is much appreciated
Thankyou

24 female looking for people to play online with

I have no friends that have a ps4 so I cant play online and its getting boring ha so if anyone's keen to multiplay then add me I got cod AW and ghost, assasins creed untiy black flag, bloodborne, the last of us, wolfenstein, resident evil Lego movie and a couple more. Don't bother adding me if your just gonna be a tool though I don't have time for that lol.

By "tool", do you mean, spend all my game time attempting to sweet talk you into some type of online relationship that will never happen and then when I realise it's futile, turn on you, bully and threaten you and then call you a woman of ill repute to all your online friends? Cause if you don't want me to follow the classic "lonely young male gamers online interaction with a female gamer formula" - then sadly I guess I wont friend you. If you're a dude pretending to be a chick though - call me!

I put pictures on my iphone when i first got it and i can not see them when i look for them now

I need to get ride of photos that are on my phone but I can not find them when the phone is hooked up. How can I find them?

If you go to the Photos app, is there content in the Photo Library? These would be pictures that are synced to the phone from the computer. Photos in the camera roll are those that you take with the phone, or save from email, MMS on the phone. What type of pictures are you trying to get rid of? If you are trying to get rid of the synced photos, you need to connect to iTunes, select the iPhone in the device pane, then go to the Photo tab in iTunes and remove the check mark by sync.

I'm looking for an ipod probably a shuffle or nano to play music and will not connect to the internet to browse for my teenager

I'm looking for something to play music and ideally something that has a docking station, but will not browse the internet.

Go to your local Apple Store so you can see all the possible products that meet your needs. You can also browse them at the Online Apple Store.

Album art shows only for Now Playing, not Selected

Don't know if this is an iTunes problem or an iPod connection issue. I just reformatted my computer and installed the latest iTunes version. Since there's no music on my harddrive yet, I'm playing my iPod Classic from the computer. The album art is behaving oddly - it only shows in the lower corner display for the Now Playing track. If I click on another track, the Selected art box says Drag Artwork Here, and yet when I go to the file info, the art is there. This happens even for a song I played earlier - if it's not the currently playing song, even if it's on the same album, the art doesn't display. It's the same whether it's an album bought from the iTunes store, from another vendor, or ripped from a CD. Obviously the art is still there, but why isn't it displaying like it did before the reinstall?
(As a side note, if I play the iPod separately from the computer, the art displays just fine.)

nvm, I called apple and fixed it! Thanx!!!!

SOLVED iTunes freeze issue by DISABLING "NOW PLAYING" in IM client!!!

SOLVED (for me). I have been scouring posts/forums for three weeks trying to resolve this. I finally stumbled across a suggestion that WORKED! This sounds crazy--I disregarded it, but was willing to try anything...
My IM client (Trillain & Gtalk) was trying to ping iTunes for the "Now Playing" status option. The moment I turned that off everything went back to normal. Cannot believe what a relief this is.
I'm sure other are out there trying to resolve this issue that cropped up once 10.2 was released. I hope it ends some others' frustrations as it did mine.

Hi jasonwryan,
Your thread helps a lot. I saw a lot of posts but not this one.
This workaround is fine for me to wait the fix.
Thanks a lot
Workaround :
It seems the problem might be linked to transparent items like background.
As explained in the above thread :
According to the bug report the nVidia driver is freaking out and creating too many events, which causes an event buffer in Xorg to overflow. It works OK with the older Xorg, though.
So the temporary solution is to downgrade 3 packages.
Install the tool to downgrade
> yaourt -Sy downgrade
Downgrade
Note the item number can change
> downgrade xf86-input-evdev
Hit "s" key
Choose 2 (xf86-input-evdev-2.6.0-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz)
> downgrade xorg-server
Hit "s" key
Choose 1 (xorg-server-1.9.4.901-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz)
> downgrade xorg-server-common
Hit "s" key
Choose 1 (xorg-server-common-1.9.4.901-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz)
Be carefull : don't update these 3 packages when updating your system (pacman -Syu) since it is not fixed.

Looking for an all around purpose media player (rather than iTunes)

Hello Hello
In the PC environment there is the Winn Amp player. A good all-purpose free player, or pro version that can play just about any sound file.
It would be great top have a good utility player like that for MAC.
Apparently the Microsoft Media Player 9 for OS 10, is useless since all it plays are .wmv windows files. I downloaded it and it's just junk. It won't even open wav files.
Does anyone know where you could even BUY a nice reliable sound file player for MAC?
Thanx
Mike

Since iTunes has been around for so long on the Mac platform and bundled with every Mac, few users look elsewhere for for an audio player. If you're looking for something to play a wide array of audio formats, then Cog is a good option. It hardly does anything, and by that I mean that there are absolutely no bells and whistles, but it plays just about anything, and it's the only player for OS X that truly supports gapless playback.
Another very nice player for OS X is Whamb. It only plays MP3 and Ogg Vorbis, but it also supports radio streams in both those formats, and allows music sharing via Rendezvous. This player hasn't been updated for a long time, so it's PPC only (it won't work on Intel Macs). I use it for radio streams--I actually think it's the best player for that purpose, but I also like the logical "tree" organization it uses for music files.

Looking for an Illustrator for my bridal website

I'm a Bridal Designer loking for a fashion illustrator for cooperations on my website http://www.giuseppepapini.com/

Dear cor-el, wow you are quick. I understand you better now, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to write to you in dutch, only if you are Dutch yourself.
Anyway, first the location bar is what I call the address bar.
Second I work very simple and easy. I never use the address bar when I'm looking for a website.
I just type the name of whatever I'm looking for in the empty bar on my google page and wait for the response.
Third, most of the sellers I buy from on ebay, I just discovered by accident and I immediately saved them in my favorites bar.
So if I need to go to their website(s) I just go to my favorites bar and click on the name of the seller(s) I'm looking for.
Now to answer the question from your earlier letter, the URL's I'm trying to save are those from the webpage(s) I open on the websites I visit and not from the website(s) itself.
The second part of your last letter from " You can modify......" is too difficult for me to understand.
If it's important I'll ask a friend, a mainframe specialist to explain it to me.
Thanks again for help. Regards, Ruiz

Looking for a music app that doesn't stop playing music when album over

Back in the 90s, I had a 5 disc CD player. When one album was done, it would move to the next album.
With iTunes, one album was done, the next album would start playing.
With iPhone, one abum is done, music stops playing.
I don't understand the logic behind the iPhone music app. This is especially bad for when I'm driving.
I'm looking for a type of Music app that either:
1) Allows me to swipe to next/previous album as well as next/previous track. (maybe a swipe up/down command)?
or
2) Allows me to display all songs, but sorted by Artist or album (that way I automatically have one long
or
3) Will automatically advance to the next album when the current one is done.

Bob, I have the guide, just didn't think of the playlist angle. I was looking for the genre/Siri thing. But hey, making a playlist worked.
Demo, yes Siri works now that I've made a playlist and say "playlist" And I'm satisfied with the fix.
But you'd think apple could make playing music more convenient. I took off all my music and retagged it, leaving all info blank (ie: albums and artists etc) and leaving only genre because it's so difficult to get it play a genre. I'd pick a genre, start with a song and it would play only songs from a single album. I've read of some odd fixes for this and a couple of them worked...sometimes! (If you stand on one leg and whistle Dixie kind of things) Ridiculous!
By eliminating all tag info except genre I fixed that issue and can now play by genre.
But as of now Siri still won't play Gospel music by my asking, she still replaces my spoken "Gospel" with her "Christian & Gospel" which like I said doesn't exist. And correcting Siri doesn't work. All my music falls into 3 genres, 2 of them Siri handles perfectly, Gospel she messes up.
Bottom line - I shouldn't have had to make a playlist, or played with the tagging of my music. Apple says you can play your music by genre, and it should be simple to do so.

Looking for an app the play iTunes TV shows.

Hi, I'm looking for an app that play iTunes TV shows. In iOs 7 its no longer possible, well it is, but every 11 minutes you have to get up and press the next tv show - if you find the next one, under ios6 it will automatically play the next show in correct order, and in iOs 7 all the shows are alphebetically, so in iOs 7 video app is tootally useless, what wants to watch tv shows alphabetical, and there is no continue button like in os 7, usually the next night I press the continue button in iOs 6.
The app I am looking for needs to have the same things like video app did in iOs6, for example;
1. Continue from last played (Works in iOs6, no longer supported in iOs7).
2. Sort shows from 1 to xx via episode number (Works in iOs6, no longer supported in iOs7).
3. Remember last played show, meaning if I scrolled down to middle and played just 1 show it remembers it (Works in iOs6, no longer supported in iOs7).
4. Prefer black background and not white like in iOs6, especially if your sleepy, do you really want to look at a painful white background.
Just imagine your taking a bath, do you really want to get out and press the next show? Worked perfect in iOs6.
I tried VLC and it can't even find the iTunes library. And there are so many players out there don't feel like downloading 100 of them to test them. Unless there is a way to download the iOs6 version of Video, I'd be happy. iOs 7 feels more like a beta version, even photos is messed up, white background and sometimes when you open up you see a previous picture I had opened before the last picture for 1 second before it closes and opens the last picture I viewed, and then the white bars top and bottom show and don't dissapear until you make them disappear.
I tried installing iOs6 again, but apple is not signing it, i'm not happy at all. If I can get my TV-Shows to work at least I'd have something. Music, TV-Shows, and Pictures is what I used my iPad for, now only Music still works as it should, what a bummer. Steve Job needs to come back.
Please help, I want my TV shows back.

Screensaver on Second Monitor says "Looking for pictures..."

My MBP just came back from getting a new logic board due to the video card packing it in. Now it won't show any pictures on my 2nd monitor with the screensaver. Either I disable the 2nd monitor and it's black, or it says "looking for pictures..." while the pictures appear on the MBP screen only. It used to run both screens with screensaver and was brilliant... And in the screensaver preferences, the test works fine. Weird...
HELP! (please)

Workaround: Create an alias of the photos folder in the iPhoto library. Some users have had success by creating an alias of the "originals" folder that's inside the iPhoto library. To do this, locate the iPhoto library (usually in the "Pictures" folder), and right click on it and select "Show Package Contents". Then select "originals" folder and create an alias for it and move the alias to another location outside of the library. After this, open the "Screen Saver" system preferences and select "Choose Folder" from the "Screen Savers" list, selecting the alias as the pictures folder. NOTE: This can also be done with a subfolder within the "originals" or any other folder of pictures within the iPhoto library.

I downloaded some TV programmes last night and now Lost Season 4 has appeared as a download. I did not buy this (I didn't even look for it and don't want to be charged for it either.

What do I do to stop it happening? I wasn't even looking for Lost. Can anyone help me??? I haven't downloaded it yet.
Thanks!

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
