No song title in iTunes 6 Radio

Hello, anyone! I recently installed iTunes v6.0 and now when playing iTunes radio (any station), the artist and song title don't appear in the toolbar display. What's up? Everything was fine with v5.0 (or whatever I had before). Is this a thinly disguised way to make me pay for my music? Or am I unaware of options I can toggle? THANKS.

hi y'all!
hmmm. have you checked/posted/searched at "Podcasting and Radio in iTunes for Windows" yet?
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=796
(just a thought. i haven't been able to keep up with radio issues lately, and apparently our radio gurus aren't spending a lot of time in this forum, judging by the lack of replies to the original post.)
love, b

I updated song titles in itunes but the changes dont show up on my ipod

I updated song titles in itunes but the changes dont show up on my ipod. It still shows the old song titles. Help!!

Did you try unsyncing the songs and then resyncing them?

Batch rename specific song titles in iTunes

Hi,
I'm thinking about writing a program that will go through my iTunes library to (1) find all songs with a specific characteristic and then (2) append a prefix to those song titles.
For instance, I have a bunch of tracks with general title:
     artist_album_version_track_123456
and I would like to append a single string to each track title, so I get something like:
     MyString_artist_album_version_track_123456.
In other words, one track title may be something like : Coldplay_Yellow_Parachutes_349203. So, there are three strings (with underscores), followed by a six digit integer.
I would like to append something to the beginning of all the tracks that end in a six digit integer. So, in the last example, the program would take that title and change it to something like:
     Zweit234_Coldplay_Yellow_Parachutes_349203
In particular, I only want to append one string to the beginning of the track title, so the string DOES NOT change with the track title. In the above case, all track titles would have Zweit234_ appended to them.
The reason I need to automate this task is because I have about 80,000+ tracks to rename.
Ideally, I can create an executable script that the user runs and the entire process is completed, without any additional user interaction.
I'm looking into ways to interact with iTunes data using AppleScript and Java, but I was hoping someone might have some ideas or, at least, be able to point me in the right direction.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi red_menace,
Your last post really helped and I was hoping you could help with another question I have. I used your script to output the data to a text file and then wrote something in java to sort the items I wanted. So now I have a text file with all the tracks that I would like to change that looks like:
Track1
Track2
Track3
Track4
Track5
etc...
Now, I wrote an AppleScript that will append something to the prefix of my song name, but I'm not sure how to run through the names that I have in the text file. I've tried changing the text file into a list and then saying something like:
set listOfTracks to {}
set Tracks to paragraphs of (read POSIX file "filepath")
repeat with nextLine in Tracks
          if length of nextLine is greater than 0 then
                    copy nextLine to end of listOfTracks
          end if
end repeat
tell application "iTunes"
          set sel to listOfTracks
-- Rest of Code --
end tell
My script actually doesn't pop up any errors, but it also doesn't work. I've tried looking into finding the location of each of the tracks and then making a playlist with those tracks, and then just changing everything in the playlist, but that hasn't really gone that well either.
So, my question is: How can I create a playlist in AppleScript using the tracks listed in a text file?
My attempts so far have really fallen flat.
I would really appreciate your help!

TS2972 I can see the song titles in itunes shared library on my new imac but songs will not play. I have a pc with wifi network that the main music library is on. tried saving songs from pc to an external drive then to new mac but thats not working eithe

attempted to transfer itunes music from pc to new imac. didn't work. apple suggest using sharing method. main library of music is on pc. did those steps and shared library shows up on mac but when you click on the song to play it doesn't play or maybe ther is no content? any suggestions?

Hi there,
It sounds like your purchased content is not transfering via a flash drive. It may be easier to re-download this contnet directly from iTunes. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

Why do i get only song titles on iTunes homepage but no images? When i click on the titles, why don't they link me to the songs?, Why do i get only song titles on my homepage but no images? When i click on the titles, why don't they link me to the songs?

This has mysteriously happened before and mysteriously stopped.

Are you still facing the same issue ? This majorly relates to network problem or probably some issue on server end , have you tried to contact your host ?
Thanks,

It means that the song cannot be located on you Hard Drive. To fix it:
1) Double-Click the song
2) Click Locate from the window that pops up.

ITunes changes my song titles why???

When I enter my song titles many times I will add some descriptive word to the title for my own information - only maximum 6 letters . I also include the artists name with the song title..
iTune changes the title sometimes it just enters the song title and other times it will enter the song title with the artist name within the song title and other times it just shortens the entry.
Does anyone know if there is a setting that I can change so that iTunes enters the song title as I have entered it. I have looked and cannot find anything.
My song library is almost 5100 songs and I use 2 ipods with my songs on them.
Thanks for any help.

Hi. Can you tell me where you are editing your song titles. Is it in iTunes once you've added them to your library or are you renaming the file name then adding into iTunes? Thanks,

Is there a way to edit song titles on an iPad?

I don't use the Music part of "iTunes in the cloud" for one simple reason: Some times the iTunes Store gets the song titles wrong - poor punctuation, misspelled words, that type of thing. If I had the 'automatically download music' turned on, I assume my iPad would receive the songs directly from the iTunes Store, with any such incorrect punctuation. So if I turned that option on, would there be any way to edit the song titles directly from my iPad?
For example: I buy an album from the iTunes Store on my computer. It has song titles that have misspellings. Those misspellings would also end up on my iPad once the songs were pushed to it. So would there be any way to fix them? If so, how?
Would I have to edit the song titles in iTunes and then sync it with the iPad? That would defeat the purpose of music in the cloud, wouldn't it?

Need help coping song titles to clipboard

I wanted to search for some info online about a song I have in Itunes. I like to just copy and paste to google the song title from itunes, but not all songs will let me copy. Some will, by doing a slow double click or going into info and coping the title. These are songs I ripped from CD's I purched and I am only wanting the text copy...not the mp3. Is there an option that lets you copy or change the names of songs in Itunes?

Like I said above....when I do a slow double click, some songs will highlght in a box and let me cut or copy. Not all songs will highlight with a box when clicking twice to give me the copy option. I can also click once on some songs and go to info and make changes there, but the same songs that will not highlight with the box, will not let me change under info.

This previous discussion may help. Your problem (and artwork) has been a recurring problem for many users since iOS 5.

ITunes radio not displaying song titles, artists, or album artwork.

iTunes radio on my iphone 5 doesn't display the song title, artist name, or any album artwork. It's just blank. Tried signing in and out of iTunes, turning phone on/off to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I have this same problem. I also don't have any of the price info for the track. This problem is on my iPhone 5s, iPad and iPad mini.
I tested out iTunes Radio on my wife's iPad and it works fine - album art, track names, album info, price and buying info.
The information in the "i" button is also blank on all my devices and not on my wife's iPad.
This is very frustrating because I can never know what the track is that I'm listening to and can't buy it if I like it.

ITunes causes 90% CPU usage when the info window scrolls the song title

What's up with that little info window under the iTunes title? When the song title exceeds the width of the window iTunes does a little right to left banner scroll of the text. Whenever this happens the CPU jumps to 90% and stays there. This is especially bad for radio stations that have long text message strings in their titles. I have to keep iTunes minimized to avoid this GUI bug.
This just started happening with iTunes 7 and 7.0.1
Windows XP

iTunes on MBP in miniplayer mode and streaming to airport express. Wife changes songs through iPad remote and the CPU spikes to 90% and stays there. If I then select regular window mode, the CPU drops back to 7-8% (where it was before song change). It doesn't happen if I change songs through the MBP iTunes, only through the iPad remote. It's like it starts a process and doesn't close it out.
There's a couple of different things that can be going on here. Let's check on the one that involves the Mini Player first.
It seems to happen when the main iTunes player is set to Cover Flow rather than List view.
If you set iTunes to List view prior to switching to the Mini Player, does that stop the excessive CPU use while in Mini Player?

My computer crashed and I saved my songs to a folder. now that I have new comp with itunes how do I transfer the songs back into itunes while keeping the titles in tact? When they transferred back in only about half of them had the titles listed.

I want to transfer my songs from the old iTunes that I saved toi the new iTunes on my computer from a file I saved and keep the song titles in tact. how do I do this.?

It is probably not wise to leave your e-mail and phone number on a public forum.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
You purchase one download only.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

My songs are in my iTunes library but the song titles do not show up on the songs list.

I have an older generation iPod nano, do I need to go back to an older version of iTunes so I can see the song titles on the song list? If so, does anyone have a link to the oder verson?

Does anyone know of an audio CD burner that will consistently label the original information?
Audio CDs do NOT have info except for CD-TEXT, no matter which program you use.
The Redbook audio CD standard does not allow for anything except CD-TEXT.
iTunes will write CD-TEXT but it will not read CD-TEXT.
You can burn data CDs and all the info will be retained and can be played in iTunes.
