Pink Song List and Dark Green Side bar on itunes 8

I'm using itunes 8 and as soon as i downloaded and installed it, the song bar was hot pink instead of the normal white, and the sidebar was a dark green instead of the normal light grey. However, if you resize the borders, it goes back to the normal itunes colors. This is on everything in itunes, including the library and itunes store. The songs play properly and it functions as normal, but I want to get rid of the pink on the song lists! I understand that there is a new itunes version currently available, version 8.1. I'm reluctant to install this version and have the same problems all over again! Please Help Me!!!

Change the monitor's bitdepth to 32 bit from the Control Panel.

How can I listen to a song from my song list and play my guitar on GarageBand at the same time?

I want to listen to a song on my song list and play my guitar through GarageBand along with the song. I tried to do the iCloud thing but could not figure it out.

Not at this time. iTunes Match downloads all music listened to on iOS devices. Period.

About a month ago a song randomly appeared in my songs list and when I tried swiping to the left to delete the song it wouldn't slide over to show the delete button. The delete slide appears with all of my other songs except that one. P.S. iCloud is off.

The delete slide appears with all of my other songs except that one. The ICloud songs are turned off and it wasn't iTunes Radio. 2 more songs like this have appeared and I can't delete them from both my iPhone or my computer (they don't even show up on my computer). If somebody knows how to fix this that would be amazing! Thank You.

Have you:

Sidebar ... how can i keep sidebar on at all times instead of going to view and clicking on side bar?

How can i keep the sidebar in view instead of going to view and cliking on side bar?

Found the Solution to my problem. Just had to put cursor on the corners of the open window and "stretch" the window to the left, to the right, then up only to the point of the screen where the "Menu" is still visible. This solved the problem I had. Thanks.

You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

Received a warning about a virus and a green progress bar started a download

''Duplicate post, continue here - [/questions/764207]''
Hello. I was on a website the other day and all of a sudden there was a warning that came down from the top of the browser. It was a grey warning box. Said something like your computer has a virus or is infected, etc. and will be checked for the virus. I could click on "ok" or "cancel". I clicked cancel but there was a green progress bar that started to show that a download was taking place. I forced quit right away but when I opened firefox it gave me the webpage again with the warning. I hit cancel again and the same thing started to happen (showed a download in progress with a green progress bar on left side of screen). I immediately closed all the firefox windows I had open. When I clicked on firefox again everything was fine. The new window went to the apple website page and everything seems to be working fine. I use a mac. Has anyone else gotten this warning before? And should I be worried that my computer was infected by a virus? I don't have an anti virus installed on my computer. With mac I always just keep the security updates up to date and I'm usually fine. I just want to make sure my computer didn't just get a virus. Thanks for the help!

Thank you so much for your post. I really appreciate your answer!
Are you able to suggest any sites that are safe to download free antivirus programs for Mac? I have heard that sometimes those programs, like Norton for Mac, can significantly slow down the computer and cause other issues. Is this true? If so, is it recommended to install a program like Norton, test for viruses, and then uninstall?
Thanks again for your help!

Finder and the missing side bar

Hi- tonight I purchased a new external hard drive. I got home and backed my computer up. No big deal. I also purchased Snow Leopard since I only had Leopard. I think everything went fairly smoothly. However, when I open my Finder I do not have the side bar anymore. I went into preferences to the side bar settings, made sure everything was checked to be up an on the sidebar and still no luck. Any advice on how to get my sidebar for the finder back? Thanks!

Well, I figured it out myself. Sometimes just posting the question makes the answer come to you! For those who my have the same problem in the future- there is a small rectangular box in the upper right hand corner. click on it and the side bar will appear.

Where is option to have side bar in iTunes 12 ?

Since, 11 iTunes has been disabling my option of having the sidebar... which is annoying... but now I cant find the option to have it again... since I found this better and easier to use than that ribbon of silly icons... It is a pain in the neck dragging a song to my iPod, in its specific playlist(still don't know how to do it properly in this new version) ... This is why I had the side bar, it was constant to the GUI design of Finder...
Please enable the option to have iTunes sidebar again... the flat GUI is irritating as it is, but getting rid of the option to have the sidebar just made me crazy, mad and insane.

I found my own answer for those who are interested. From the "Playlist View" with Library -> Music selected in the Sidebar on the left, notice that "Albums" is the default in the menu bar at the far right. There is a drop-down selection arrow there. Click that and select "Songs" to put the library view back in "Column Browser" view. Very cumbersome to set up, but it does appear that iTunes 12 will re-open to your last view so hopefully I don't have to go thru all those clicks every time.

How can I have the side bar in iTunes 12??

I just installed iTunes 12 that was claimed to provide "a more pleasant interface for navigation"!?!?
Personally, I do not find the new view format pleasant at all. I expected to be allowed to go back to the lateral bar visualization, finding it as a view option. It was quite upsetting finding out that the option disappeared from the menue. Did you have the brilliant idea to remove it, or did you simply hide it somewhere else? (I am definitely too old to play "hide and seek" with visualization options and I really do not have the time either)
Probably, kids like big figures that do not require any reading skill, unfortunately I do not.
I conclusion, how can I have the side bar visible again in iTunes 12???
Thank you
P.S. Playlists is similar to lateral bar, but not the same, as it is not ONE allowing to navigate music, movies, podacast, but one for each.

The functionality of the sidebar has changed indeed. But what's the problem? Category's of the library have been separated from playlists and moved to one of the top bars. I think it's an improvement for people using iTunes as a media-management tool. In the old version the playlists were at the bottom of the sidebar and if you had all options activated you had to scroll down to find your playlists.
You don't have to do that anymore. Your music library is now aside with the playlists. If you want to activate another categorie you can use the icons in the topbar and still keep the overview on your playlists.
People who use iTunes for syncing iDevices seem less happy with this new presentation. It seems a minor adjustment to me, but others seems to think otherwise.

Why would apple not automatically show the side bar in iTunes. Wasted 20 min trying to find out why my ipod was not showing up. Really really bad idea, Apple.

Why does the side bar not automatically show up when you first download apple iTunes? Really really bad design. It took 20 min to fine the setting that enable the side bar. ***? I could not access my iPod for 20 freakin min! Just show the **** side bar always! Maybe apple is too big and is starting to lose common sense.

Because Apple update iTunes to do it that way. Apple has not said why.

Carrying Over Song Ratings and Playlists to New Install of iTunes

Hi All,
Hoping someone can help here. I've had my iTunes music on a NAS drive for a few years, but lately I've found iTunes to be freezing virtually every two seconds when reading my files.
I tried removing all the old iTunes files (.itl and .xml files after backing them up) and then importing the folder with all my music and video files again.
Now iTunes is super quick, but I've lost all my ratings (c9,000 tracks) and all my playlists.
Is there some way to use the XML or .itl files to re-create all the ratings and playlists on top of this fresh import?
Many Thanks
F

OK after 5 hours of beating my mouse I have the answer.
Open Itunes.
Select your entire list and delete it. (If this makes you nervous start with one album. I wouldn't trust me either.) It will ask if you want to send to the recycle or keep the file in your media file. I chose to keep as I didn't want to drag them back out if I was wrong. Interesting that when I tried this again while writing these instructions. It didn't ask me a second time.
Now you that have that deleted your list/library. At the top left Click <FILE > then <ADD FILE TO LIBRARY>
This will bring up a new window.
On the left side of the new window. (my computer anyway) there is a list. Click <MUSIC> then double click the <iTunes folder>. Then Double click <iTunes MUSIC>
Now you are looking at all your artists folders. Select them all. You can click while holding the CTRL button to select all of them. They will self fill in at the bottom above the select folder button. click the <SELECT FOLDER> button.
TA DA ! Now you list/library is being repopulated with your music. Now wasn't that fun?
I even tried it again as I wrote out these instructions. No problems here. Please try this with one album first.
If this works for you please come back and say so. That way people will know it's a good work through. If it does not work for you please say so in CAPS So people will know it may not for them.
This solution was pure trial and error. On a Toshiba Satellite running WINDOWS Vista Home premium. No warranty expressed or implied. Your mileage may vary. If swallowed do not induce vomiting (that's gross).

Weird White text at the bottom and in the search bar of iTunes

So my iTunes (ver.10) somehow has a weird white colored text at the bottom where it tells you what your song count, days, and gigabytes in your library are? And the text is a super light gray in the search box in the upper right hand corner...what the heck? Does anyone know how to change this?
/Pictures: http://goo.gl/Bs26I
Thanks so much!

Either the iPhone has crashed in some way to cause it to corrupt badly enough to need restoring to work (either hardware issue or software corruption) or it has been connected while holding down the Home button.
Try resetting the handset (Hold Home & Power together for 15secs until Apple appears) and if it still goes back to recovery mode it means there's a major software issue or a hardware fault
