Not overwriting old music

I have a couple of songs on my 8G that are poor quality. When I replace the songs with better versions (they sound perfect in iTunes, but they are the old version on the iPod), they will not overwrite on the iPod. I've tried everything I can think of. I've synced with the song deleted, changed physical locations inside the PC, reformatted the iPod and I'm out of options. Can anyone help me?

Have you tried changing the iPod to manual update and deleting the tracks directly from the iPod? When you change back to syncing from the library the new tracks should be added: Managing content manually on iPod

Itunes does not identify old music contents on new computer -

I have moved "my music" contents from and old computer to a new one. Itunes does not recognize these contents.
How do I make them corelate?

If you use automatic syncing, you must set up the iPod's Music tab in iTunes so that the selection of songs includes all the songs you want on the iPod.
Select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Music there. That is the Music tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
To use automatic syncing for songs, Sync Music is checkmarked. You can choose to sync Entire music library, if it fits. Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.
If you chose the latter, you create a selection of songs on the Music tab by selecting playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres. For example, if you want that new playlist, it must be checkmarked under Playlists. If you want to keep it simple, you can create a new playlist in iTunes and put ALL song you want on the iPod on that playlist (including that new purchased song). Back on the Music tab, checkmark that one playlist.
When you Apply the change, your selection of songs on the Music tab syncs to the iPod. If the iPod was not previously set to use automatic syncing, its existing content is replaced. Going forward, any changes to the iTunes Music library that relate to the selection of songs on the Music tab sync automatically when the iPod is connected, or when you click Sync. So, if you are syncing a playlist as your selection of songs, just update that playlist (add and remove songs), and the iPod gets updated with those changes at the next opportunity.

Write to text file; not overwriting old, but moving to next entry and writing

I am interested in writing a series of filenames, to a text file, so I can keep track of sample ID and experiment #'s. I would like each new filename to be writtten following the previous filename, rather than always overwriting. I've done a brief check of some of the properties, and couldn't find anything. Any ideas? thanks

Hey csmrunman,
Just to clarify, are you looking to append text to an existing file without over-writing existing text, or are you looking to create a series of text files with unique names? If you want to append text to an existing file, then Andrey's solution above should be what you need. If you want to programmatically determine a unique name for the text files, then you can use a similar means to deterine a unique name (Andrey used the iteration terminal above so that each iteration of the while loop produces a unique text to be inserted into the text file). You mentioned the use of sample ID and experiment number, which you could also use as a file name if you wish to, and even have the user of the VI enter the information that makes up the filename through front panel controls. The string functions (in the Functions Palette under Programming » String) will be of great use here. Of course, if you are just looking for an “out-of-the-box” solution, there is always the Write to Measurement File Express VI (Programming » File I/O), but this is best suited for situations where you have channels of data that you would like to store, so this may not fit depending on the data you wish to store. If it does fit, however, there are settings that you can configure for saving to a series of files:

Windows 7 not overwriting old credentials for Office 365

Recently we migrated from an internal hosted exchange server to Office 365 hosted email. When a user is prompted to change their password with Outlook 2010 they continue to get the pop up for submitting their credentials and to select "remember my credentials".
What appears to be happening is that under Control Panel > User Accounts > Credential Manager > Generic Credentials the old and new credentials are both there. If we delete the credentials and reopen Outlook and provide the correct credentials,
they will take and the problem is solved. From what I have seen online is that this process is considered the 'best' way to handle this situation.
Am i missing an update, hot fix or something? It seems to be that Windows 7 is having a problem overwriting the original credentials that it has stored.
Thank you,
Ron R.

Hello Ron R.
As this issue is related to office 365, to receive better support, it is recommended to ask in the TechNet office forum.
The professionals there will be glad to help you.

Rebooted Computer, can not retrieve old music.

Today and last night I've been getting BSODs (Blue screen of death) and my computer just turns off on me. This morning I went to fix the problem, but had no luck so I decided to Ctrl+F11 (reboot to factory settings) and start from scratch. I had no time to back up my music files bought from the iTunes store. If anyone could tell me how to re-download the music I bought for a cost of nothing, that'd fantastic! Thank you!

I had no time to back up my music files bought from the iTunes store.
So you bought these songs immediatly prior to restoring your HD? And you had option to do anything before restoring your HD?
Did you make a backup of all yoru important files before you did this?
If anyone could tell me how to re-download the music I bought for a cost of nothing
You cannot. Only one download per purcahse.

New Webservice Datasource:Not Overwriting with old one in Production

Hi,
I have a Webservice Data Source which is loading XML based Data to DSO & Then to Infocube.
In development I it is working fine even Loading Delta perfectly. Then moved it production.
Again due to some client request I have made changes in Web Service Data Source & DSO & Infocube.It is also worked fine in Development. Again moved to production.
But after moving to production all objercts of DSO/Infocube changes are fine. Even Transformation/DTP is as it is with Development for upload from DSO To Infocube.
Issue : The New Webservice datasource is not overwriting Old one in Production even I capture in Transport request all changes correctly, same also applies Transforamtion/DTP too from Webservice Datasource to DSO..
I need How to Overwrite Datasource/Transforamation/DTP in Production with new objects of same in Development.
Please suggest.Need the steps in detail. It could be bug or some other issue which need to look into.

That is exactly correct: Time Machine backs-up entire systems, not just data. That's how many folks back-up two (or more) Macs to the same TM drive without conflicts.
You cannot combine them.
From one Mac, you see only it's backups when you +Enter Time Machine.+
But you can see those from another Mac by holding down the Option key as you select the TM icon in the menubar, changing +Enter Time Machine+ to +Browse Other Time Machine Disks.+ Then you can browse, restore, or delete those backups normally.
You also need to know that TM backup processes on the new Mac will not delete the backups from the old Mac in the usual fashion. You'll have to do that manually (via TM, not the Finder), or bite that bullet and erase the drive.
To delete backups from the old Mac, +Browse Other Time Machine Disks,+ select the backup you want to delete from the "cascade" of Finder windows and click the "gear" icon in the Finder window's toolbar, then select +Delete Backup.+ You'll get a confirmation prompt, then one for your Administrator's password, then TM will delete it.
Usually the deletion will be very quick; but some backups will take a very long time to delete (if you exit TM, you may see a progress bar). Unfortunately, there's no way to tell which will be quick and which won't.

Hello Prem,
I think you might be working on BI 7.0 and this datasource you are talking of is a 3.x datasource?
I have observed that when we activate a 3.x datasource in 7.0 system and replicate it in BI, it shows a modified status, but when you create a dataflow above it it becomes active. I think the datasource you have sent to production has no dataflow above it. Send the dataflow above transports for the datasource and it will get activated.
Please let me know if you need any more information.

HT1199 Unable to open my I-tunes music library on an old laptop which holds two Ipod music libraries. Advice given is to re-install I-Tunes. If this is done, will the newly installed I-Tunes overwrite the music library on my computer hard drive or not?

If this is done, will the newly installed I-Tunes overwrite the music library on my computer hard drive or will I still be able to access the music library via the new I-Tunes installation?

Reinstalling iTunes should leave your library alone.

On my iPad Mini (2013), How can I make it so, only my downloaded music is shown in the Music app, and not old music I haven't downloaded/ don't want on my iPad?

When I enter the music app, I just want to listen to the music that I've downloaded onto my device, not old music I don't want, but is still shown for streaming. Any help/ideas? I don't want to have to go offline just to listen to the music I want to listen to everytime

Why would you have to go offline to listen to music? Dosn't make sense.
However, you can set the app up to just show you tracks that are actually on the device: Settings app > Music > Show All Muisc [turn OFF]

I had iTunes on my old computer and I am trying to get all of the same music on my new computer. I have download iTunes and signed in, but it is not showing up in my library. How do I get all of my old music back?

It does not magically appear in a new place. It will only be where you put it.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

MY ipod froze, restarted but will not load any music or delete old apps, any know how to fix this

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

HT4527 My old mac book was backed up to a Time Machine drive. That Macbook is dead. I have a new Mac Mini. How do I get the iTunes library (not just the music files but all other data...playlists, ratings, etc) on the new Mac from my Time Machine?

My old Mac died. I had it backed up to a Time Machine external drive (fortunately). I have a new Mac. I want to get my entire iTunes library from the Time Machine drive to the new Mac. I want not only the music files but all the "library" metadata, playlists, song rankings, unique genre designations. How do I do this?

No backup is a huge mistake.
