Missing menu commands in Itunes 6
Ever since I downloaded Itunes 6, I am missing certain menu commands like "File," the ability to create playlists or enter/change track information.
Anybody else have similar problems? I am at a loss as far as what to do...
Thanks!
Lynda
Somehow the titlebar became skinned. I just left-clicked the titlebar area, selected options, and unchecked skin the titlebar... Can't believe I spent hours trying to figure that out.

Hi,
FM11, structured, original release (not patched), Win XP
I have begin to notice a number of commands that have disappeared from FM menus with version 11, including:
Format > Font
Format > Paragraph
Format > Style
Format > Characters
Format > Paragraphs
Table > Custom Ruling And Shading
I first noticed this when I needed to undo some wacky ruling and shading that came in with a table pasted from MS Word. I could get the ruling and shading pod using the keyboard shortcut (Esc t x) but just cannot get it to appear in the Table menu. I am in the WYSIWYG view and it doesn't matter whether a structured or unstructured document is active.
Does anyone know what I'm overlooking here? Did somebody decide that I don't need these functionalities because I have the product interface set to structured?
Thanks,
RussOK, I got it. Thanks again to all who offered help. For future reference, here is what is up:
My menu configuration files are located at (on my PC):
C:\Documents and Settings\rward\Application Data\Adobe\FrameMaker\11\WorkSpaces\Structured\menus
...and as Matt's post implies, each workspace references a specific configuration file in its respective CFWS file, on my PC at:
C:\Documents and Settings\rward\Application Data\Adobe\FrameMaker\11\WorkSpaces
In a CFWS file, there is an element near the begining that controls the default menu file. I can change it there and get the menu I want:
<data type="all" menuFile="menus_structured_authoring.cfg" toolbarFile="fmtoolbar.xml"/>
When I am using my own custom workspace, I can pick a new file with View > Menus > Modify and FM will remember the setting (that is, edit the CFWS file automatically). However, for the "built-in" XML/Structured workspace, changes are not saved. It takes a manual tweak of the CFWS file.
Happy New Year!

Trying to update, but im missing the installation file ITUNES.MSI
trying to update, but im missing the installation file ITUNES.MSI
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
Music files missing? Seems like iTunes bug...
I recently noticed that many of my music files are missing, and that the selection appears to be somewhat random. They are retained in iTunes, but have the ! next to them. So, doing the logical thing, I tried to locate them, and the files themselves are missing, but their iTunes link is preserved.
In an effort to continue to do the logical thing, I then systematically went through my CD library, re-loading all the missing material back into iTunes. This was extremely tedious, but appeared to fix most of the issues (obviously, the ones were the CD case was mysteriously empty were left unfixed). The files played fine at that time. Then I carried the computer upstairs to my home office, where I proceeded to plug it in to do a time machine backup on the newly transferred files.
Now here's where it gets really strange... The time machine backup went swimmingly without hitches, to a relatively new USB 3.0 drive. I then set about organizing the music, so that it would all be in the iTunes music folder (User(me)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/ directory, the one automatically made by iTunes on installation). Many of the songs linked perfectly, and I didn't have to re-link the songs to their new location, as one might expect. So, I then thought I would sit down to enjoy this new library that I had spent a day bringing up to speed and organizing again. And, low and behold, songs are missing--again. Not just the ones that I couldn't replace, but some of the newly replaced ones. For example, Track 12 of an album might be missing, but the files for Tracks 1-11 and 13+ are all present.
As other people who have experienced this problem previously have noted, there does seem to be a slight preference for songs whose artist and/or title include accented characters, although my detection ability is more limited now, as I have since lost many of these original CDs, and so the songs were not replaced within the library. But, while they account for about 5-10% of my overall library, they accounted for about 50% of the songs missing at the beginning of yesterday's overhaul.
And what makes matters really strange is that when I tried to look up the missing files--which I know myself to have imported yesterday--in the fresh time machine backup I made right after importing all that music, they are all missing.
So, it appears that iTunes is systematically deleting files at random. While I'm tempted to try to put the missing ones back on (fewer are "re-missing" than I was able to replace, so it's a little better), this doesn't exactly seem fruitful, given the fresh deletions.
The original music files were encoded a long time ago, and have been copied and re-copied (and recopied... ad infinitium). It appears that everything that I encoded on the really old system (before iTunes really became popular for this sort of thing) were preserved; however, the issue seems to temporally localize around the time I started using iTunes for most of my music encoding needs (except, of course, for the little issue about files that were imported less than 24 hours ago).
A few other notes:
- I did not delete these files accidentally. I'm more careful than that.
- The files are not there (they're not just hidden--I already checked for this).
- iTunes has retained the link to where it believes the file should be.
- The issue appears to have originally arisen quite some time ago, as these files are systemically missing from all backups made by time machine. However, it wasn't all that long ago that I deleted my entire library and started over (about 2 years, so the files should have been natively present on 2 of my macs) by re-importing all the files in my music folder. This newly created library has since become the "master" library that is propigated to all my other computers (although I don't trust iCloud for obvious reasons, given this fiasco--Thanks, Apple...)
- I have not elected to have iTunes manage my music folder, or automatically copy things to the iTunes music folder when importing (although this is the default destination, so they are imported there, but not duplicated there when imported from elsewhere on the hard drive).
- I am currently running OS X 10.6.8 on an Intel Mac (yeah, yeah, I'd upgrade the OS, but software that cost more than the computer isn't 10.8--or even 10.7--compatible).
If anyone has any thoughts on how to prevent this issue in the future, I'd really appreciate it. I think the music files themselves are just... gone. But, I would like to be able to have them stick around for a bit when I get around to dedicating another day to trying to import them from their CD.
Does anyone know a piece of third party software that allows you to sync and update iDevices? Hopefully one that doesn't take over my music library and decide to delete things of its own accord?I was lucky to be able to use a PC, that after trying numerous times actually read the external hdd, I quickly copied all files over to a backup hdd and recovered all files. After that I ended up in contact with Western Digital about the incident and they recommended to completely erase (7-pass erase) of the hdd, which ended up taking over 5 days to do. They gave me no reason as to "Why" it would have happened but if I erase and reformatted of the hdd and the problem reoccurred they recommended to get the unit replaced.
I was lucky to recover all my files.....keep trying on different computers if you can, and copy what you can get hold of. The 7-pass erase will delete pretty much every trace of information on the hdd with no chance of recovery.
So far since the incident its been running ok but I not longer trust the hdd to be stable. Not a simple nor quick process / solution I'm afraid.
Good luck!
Once you have recovered your files (or as many as you can get hold of) and ready to erase the hdd:
(THIS WILL ERASE ALL YOUR DATA, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP BEFORE PROCEEDING)
Connect the drive directly to the Mac, open Disk Utility.
Select the drive and click on the "Erase" tab Select the "7-times zeros" to completely erase the drive.
Once the erase have completed format the drive to your selection. -
Menu commands for Scheduling Gantt
I'm trying to add my own custom commands to a Scheduling Gantt on my page. I have some questions/comments.
1. I can add items to the tablePopupMenu facet, and they show up fine and my listener gets executed. How can I find out what resource was selected when this event fires, and/or the IDs of all of the selected resources? The actionEvent has very little information in it and is just generic. Do I need to tell it somehow that it is a "resource" event?
2. I have added items to the chartPopupMenu facet, and they show up fine on the menu, but the listener is not called when I click the menu item. This seems like a bug but maybe I'm just doing something wrong.
3. I would have thought that whatever menu items I add to these popup menus would also be added to the "Resource" and "Task" menus on the menu bar, but they're not. How can I add my own menu commands there?
4. Is it possible for me to change the text that displays for the "Resource", "Task" and "View" menus? We have a legacy language translation system that I need to use to get the menu choices.
Any and all advice appreciated!

iTunes will not open because a dialog box pops up with "Itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.". I have done so a few times to no avail. Any solutions for this problem?
No you will not lose your content reinstalling iTunes.
Do this:
1: Download and run the Registry Cleaner of the free Ccleaner.
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard
2: Next follow this Apple document to un-install iTunes

Fakt:
iTunes 10.6.1.7 Fehlermeldung: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Jeder Versuch iTunes zu starten war bisher vergeblich: unter anderem auch das Vorgehen nach Artikel HT1925 der knowledge base.
Frage:
Windows XP Neuinstallation und/oder Installation einer älteren iTunes-Version als letzter Ausweg?Antwort und Lösung eine Woche später:
Deinstallation und Neuinstallation von iTunes 10.6.1.7 produziert dieselbe Fehlermeldung.
Es hilft nur eine Reparatur von iTunes unter Systemsteuerung / Software. Allerdings muss hier Windows XP mit Hilfe von Ausführen / msconfig im benutzerdefinierten Modus erneut gestartet werden - ohne APSDaemon, Avira und Skype zu laden!
Die Fehlermeldung unterblieb, die Reparatur schritt voran, meldete Erfolg und benannte eine wohl defekte Datenenbank unter C:\Documents and Settings\MyAccountName\My Documents\My Music\iTunes um in:

Hi guys...I have just got a new computer and want to get my library back up and running on it. However I seem to be missing some of my iTunes music purchases. Any ideas on how to get them back? They show up on my ipad but not my actual itunes account.
Hello there, Capricious13.
There are great pointers in the following Knowledge Base article. Depending on where you see the content and where you want to get it to, this should guide you to putting it in the right place:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I want to create an applescript/automator tool to launch the "Add to library" command in iTunes with a specific path. I need to know what process is run under the hood to create such a script.
To put you in context, I have an NFS mount point with all my music and with the "add to library" command, I can add more music to the folder and update iTunes without dragging the individual folders or the whole mount point and avoid having the songs show up as doubles.
Anyone know what OS/Unix process is being called for such a command?I want to create an applescript/automator tool to launch the "Add to library" command in iTunes with a specific path. I need to know what process is run under the hood to create such a script.

With that one, I think we should try getting the malware possibilities off the table first.
Try downloading and installing the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Update your MBAM definitions and then run a full scan of the PC. (Takes about 2 hour on my Lenovo.)
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
Does the scan find any infections? If so, please paste the contents of the log file for the scan in a reply here so we can have a look. -

Started having trouble with iTunes so I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall but it says ' iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.' Well, I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times. Now what?
I figured it out. A week ago I had downloaded a screensaver from a website I trusted and that's when my problems started. I uninstalled it but that didn't help. So, I reinstalled it then used an uninstall softtware app that cleanns more than the control panel does. Then I used a computer cleaner to be sure everything was wiped clean. And it worked. I downloded iTunes for the 7th time in 2 days and finally it worked! And I lost nothing from my account.
Maybe this info will help others. -
When i try to start itunes i get a message saying that the MSVCR80.dll file is missing and to reinstall itunes. When I try to reinstall itunes it tells me that I have an Error 7 (windows error 126). Can anybody tell me what this means? Thanks
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I am constantly getting a message which says "iTunes cannot run because some of it's required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." I've reinstalled a number of times and re-booted but it only seems to last a short time. How do I fix it?
HI daddio,
Ok some things first I need to know...Did you use Microsoft cleanup utility to clean up all those uninstalls you have done?
I hate Norton and anyone who reads my posts will know that. I have seen way too many infected PC's by Norton users. Did you try the EWIDO and AdAware scan? I see you said you read lots of posts. That is helping folks remove the malware in order to get iTunes and quicktime back to health.
