My Disappearing ID Tags..can anyone help?
Whenever I reinstall windows, I'll install the latest iTunes and import my Mp3's..60% of them are fine after importing, the rest though will either be imported as UnKnown Artist or Artist/Unknown Ablum...I'll manually go in and painstakingly change everything, but this is getting old. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Or how I can prevent this from happening next time? Also, from what I can tell, it isnt always the smae Mp3's that are losing their tags after each install.
Any help would be so very appreciated!

You don't have to (and really shouldn't) reimport anything.
Just save the entire /My Music/ iTunes/ folder along with the rest of the data on your computer before you erase/reinstall.
Then put it back and everything is as it was.
You also should try running MP3Val on your MP3 files to correct any errors in the tags.
Some conversion programs are kinda flaky and write tags incorrectly or the tags may get messed up by other apps.

Hi bubbles213,
The best way to move information from one iOS device to another is to back up the device using iCloud or iTunes (or both), and then restoring the new device from it. This article will walk you through the steps:

Alarms disappear on shutdown - can anyone help me?
I like to set up onscreen reminders (iCal alarms) for important events two weeks in advance. But if I shut down or restart during these two weeks, the iCal alarms are lost.
Can I do something to prevent this from happening, or is this a programming oversight?
(This was originally posted on the 22nd, but no takers. Can anyone help me?)
("Turn off alarms when iCal is not open" is NOT checked. I've tried it both was. Doesn't matter. They still disappear. Is this a programming error?)
1.8 GHz Power PC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)Sorry I can't help but I have a similar problem.
I like you shut down my computer regularly (due to an unreliable rural power supply). The new alarms do not completely disappear but appear almost off screen. They appear on the left of my desktop will only 20mm of the right side of the window visible. It's like my desktop extends beyond what I can see. I have to "drag and drop" them onto the desk top to view them. Irritating. I have also tried "turn off alarms etc", Drag and drop with different keys suppressed and System preferences for anything that may help. All to no avail. -
My iphone 4s wont turn on,it wont even charge,when it does eventually start to charge the apple icon on the screen will appear for a few seconds then itll disappear, i have tried to do the soft/hard reset but nothing happens, can anyone help me please? do i have a dead iphone on my hands? isit worth me going into the apple store and seeing what they can do or isit pointless? please help!!!
Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace -
Please, help!
After upgrading to Yosemite, my dock has disappeared, along with the dashboard and the wallpaper! Can anyone help? I'm using a MacBook Pro, retina, bought it last year.
ThanksHave you been trying to download from the app store? Did you get a message?
As a suggestion, you might go to an Apple store (genius bar appointment) for help. As far as I know, there should be no charge.

I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?
And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
Is this iPhoto on your Mac? Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11? If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

If you have itunes on pc or icloud than i think your contacts should be there.
Have you tried to sync to itunes (make sure to check Sync Contacts and all contact options on itunes info tab), activate the icloud account on your iphone's contact option and show all contacts on groups tab on iphone's contact app?

The cellular data services have disappeared from my settings. Can anyone help me restore it please?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

My notes just disappeared from IPOD and Mail. Can anyone help me recover them?
My Notes just disappeared from IPOD and Mail. It may have been after a sync. Can anyone help me recover them?
Looks that something has gone wrong with the reset as you still have Firefox profile folders with a date/time stamp that a reset creates, but are using a regular default profile.<br />
Such a new default profile is likely to have been created because of a problem with the profiles.ini file (if profiles.ini is missing the Firefox will create a new default profile).
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
You can look at the time stamps or check the name of the JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder.

Can anyone help pls...I bought an audiobook on my iPhone. This has now disappeared (after I had to do a factory reset) and I can't figure how to retrieve - either to my laptop or phone, altho it is showing in my iTunes purchases. Tks
Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so it won't show for re-downloading. If you haven't got a copy of it anywhere (if it's on your computer's iTunes then it should be in the Books part of your library) and it's still in the store then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Can anyone help with the question above.
Should I just reinstall itunes? If so will I just be able to transfer my music back into the program?
Thnx in advance community,
SatiyaThe icon in the dock is just a pointer (alias) to the application, not the application itself. If that pointer gets confused or broken the app won't open. Right click (control-click) the dock icon, select Options, then select Show in Finder. This should reveal the iTunes application in your Applications folder. Double click the actuall iTunes application and see if it opens. You could also open the Applications folder and see if iTunes is still there.
Let us know what you find.
