Playlist titles disappeared and cannot rename

I have recently updated my iTunes to 7.4.2. The other day I opened the application and 3 of my playlists had lost their titles. I tried to add the name back in but it won't allow me to edit it at all (the edit "window" doesn't open when I click on the title bar.)
Also, I was not able to shuffle my regular playlists.
Anyone else having these problems or know how to fix them?
Thanks!

Hey Frank,
Try re-creating your Playlists. Re-name them how they're supposed be named then drag the content of the problematic Playlists into those new ones.
This does not fix your problem, it eradicates it
Try that and tell me if it worked, or if there are still problems.

I just transferred music from a desktop to a laptop to put on itunes. After this exhausting process of renaming and renaming unnamed tracks, when I play one on itunes the song title disappears and though the song plays, I have to rewrite name of song.

I just transferred music from a desktop to a laptop to put on itunes. After this exhausting process of renaming and renaming unnamed tracks (b/c itunes made me rename them even after I rewrote the names in the music folder of my computer even though I hadn't put the songs onto itunes beforehand when the tracks were unnamed), when I play one on itunes the song title disappears and though the song plays, I have to AGAIN rewrite the name of the song. Is there an actually answer out there???!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
i guess you are referring to iTunes Match. It sounds as though you haven't downloaded all the content and are trying to play your music over a poor connection.

My location bar, tool bar (file, edit, tools, bookmarks, help) disappeared and cannot be restored. I have no back button, home button etc. the top of the screen is just an empty blue bar. Internet still works if I click on a hyperlink on the main page.

The problem started when I turned on the computer this morning. I tried to install Mozilla 4 from your website and that installed but I still have nothing on the top.

It may be due to Firebug. Seeing as how you're a web developer, it's very possible you have this installed. The latest version, 1.7X a10, appears to cause everything you described. I downgraded to "a8" and that seems to have fixed everything.
I also recreated a profile from scratch before trying this out, so I can't guarantee it's definitely Firebug.

ITunes library disappeared and cannot reinstall from Time Machine

I have searched all support threads for my problem -- updated to Mavericks and all my playlists disappeared and audio files that the new itunes didn't seem to know what to do with (meditation i.e.) I've tried to reinstall from Time Machine, but all support threads refer to itunes library and folder which I don't have anymore. I drag it to the desktop and tried to reload from there. I tried to do it directly from TM but get the error message that says something about a file instead of a folder.

2 devices:1. Iphone 6 - IOS 8.4
2. Ipad Air 2 - IOS 8.4
Location: The Netherlands
Login: oppositemarco in both devices
Issue occured after batteries were out and after recharging the Iphone I could not access the Spotify App on my Iphone.
After deleting the Spotify App, turn my Iphone off and on again, reinstalling the Spotify app I had access again to the Spotify app, however my playlists are no longer visible on my Iphone.
The only way to get to my playlists again is via 'recently played'.
However it is also not possible to set anymore to 'offline' for my own playlists (that I compiled myself), that are listed only under 'Recently played' since it will be put back again to the original online only.
Spotify, could you please sort this out since I am going on holiday soon.

Launchpad folder disappears and/or renames self - help!

I was in the middle of organizing my apps in Launchpad when I started noticing some issues:
A folder full of apps for photography has disappeared.
A minute prior to that, I had an app that I couldn't move to the above mentioned folder. It was as though the folder was locked. I moved the folder to another page and it allowed me then to move the app into it.
I have a folder of Video Chat apps that has renamed itself Photography Editing - this is the name of my missing folder. It won't let me rename it.
I have a third folder of chat apps and it took the name Video Chat and won't allow me to change it.
I have a "ghost" folder called Chat Apps that appears with no icons inside and with a dotted outline.
I haven't tried rebooting yet. I was wondering if the Launchpad can be reset? I either need that initial folder back or I need to be able to add those icons back into Launchpad.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I mean finder crashed.

Application windows occasionally disappear and cannot be made visible

Occasionally, all windows, including toolbars, sidebars, etc. will disappear in an application. The files remain open, and sometimes (but not all the time) the top menu will list the menu options for the affected application. Sometimes (but not always) I can access the menu items and select an option, but nothing ever visibly occurs. If I select "save," then whatever document is in the front-most missing window of the application will save (as long as there are no follow-up options). But it's troublesome if I'm not sure which document is in front. The only way to resolve the problem is to quit the application(often, force quit is the only option) and relaunch it.
This has been happening since 10.4 was first installed, and it also happens on my G4/667 Titanium Powerbook at home, so it's not isolated to my system. I have Application Enhancer with PullTab and WindowShade installed. Uninstalling these has no effect on the problem, however.
Sometimes it happens once in a week, sometimes it happens five times a day. It happens with any application, including the Finder.
Any ideas?

On occasion, a program will not come to the front. I've found that happens when the program is hanging and needs to be killed. Force quit the sucker.
I don't know about Word 2008 but it's a new program and I'd look into any bugs associated with it. I still run Word 2004.
Does this happen when Word and Firefox are open at the same time?

Safari disappeared and cannot install

Mac OS X 10.4.10
I tried to install Safari 3 Beta, but I Force Quit during installation because some applications were open.
I lost Safari,
found from a friend the Max OS X Install Disc, 10.4.9 version for MacBook and try to install like in
"Safari disappeared in OS X Tiger v.10.4.10"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1082242&tstart=0
But when I try to install only Safari, Optional Installs.mpkg doesen't open. Maybe my Installer doesn't work anymore?
Since I lost Safari, applications like Mail, iTunes, Onyx, Adium or Acquisition dont open.
Word, Firefox, VLC open without problem.
When I try to put the Intallation CD I and start the complete installation I have one grey view with some kernel panic...
What do I have to do ?

Trash the com.apple.Safari.plist
You will find it in Home folder>Library>Preferences>com.apple.Safari.plist
Now try again ...
** Or start a NEW topic in the OSX 10.3.9 OR EARLIER forum with as TITEL >Application not opening<
Good luck ...

Cannot download.... once read in download.. file disappears and cannot get icon

I attempted to download Firefox on my IMAC desktop. I watched it download in my download folder. I could not however get that process finished as just when it was almost completed... It disappears?? I also could not get the icon to load to my applications folder on my prior attempt.

That is rather distressing considering that I do not own or have access to an iOS device. So far after these many months (a year already ?) of using (or not using), I must admit that I am not an iCloud fan and really miss MobileMe. Any suggestions on how to use the service for docs? I honestly could care less about music or photos. Another service is probably going to be the answer, I bet.

Bitlocker drive disappeared and cannot be accessed.

Hi everyone, I am using an INTEL 80 GB SSD as an external hard disk. However, after I bitlocker the drive, it still works fine. But, few days later, I can't access the drive at all. In file explorer, the disk drive and unlock option didn't will not appear
at all.
In Disk Management, it shows like this
I don't mind if the data is gone. I just want the disk to work again. Can anyone help?

Yes. The actual disk size is 80GB, but in disk management it only shows 7MB
How about uninstall its driver in Device Manager, have you tried yet? In addition, please check its status in BIOS if it works normal.

Portege M200 - WLan disappears and cannot be connected again

Hey guys,
I have a toshiba portege M200 notebook with Windows XP Professional and Service Pack 2.
If I activate the WLAN adapter the WLAN network is shown once and I can connect me and use it problem-free.
If I deactivate and activate the WLAN adapter or it pass some time the WLAN network isn't shown. A reboot doesn't help.
Can somebody say what the problem is?

Hi
How did you deactivate the WLan adapter?
Did you use the switch at the notebooks side?
Usually the WLan should be enabled using the FN+F8 option
So if you your WLan will not work then you should use that the FN +F8 key combination in order to enable the WLan again.
Furthermore you should check if you are using the latest WLan driver...

Facebook app disappeared and cannot retrieve?

I have an iPhone 4S, about a year now. Yesterday I downloaded a Facebook update and went to sleep. Wake up in morning and Facebook app is missing from phone. It was on my front page, next to a blank spot, and now there are two blank spots in the bottom right of my front page. Here is what I have tried:
-Resetting phone (home+on/off button). Reset 3-4 times, nothing.
-Reinstalling app. Looked up Facebook app in app store, and shows as being installed. So there is an "Open" button where there would be an "Install" button if I did not yet have the app. I click the "Open" button and it does nothing, like it's a dead button.
-Searching for Facebook. On the iOs "Search iPhone" bubble (swipe right on home screen) I search for Facebook. Nothing shows up but contacts.
-Synching on iTunes. App doesn't show up on list, tried a synch, reset phone, nothing worked.
I have 111 apps installed across 7 pages (with a few blank spots scattered across). I do not and never had "Restrictions" enabled. I have not changed any other settings anytime recently. I have 4 gigs of free space on my phone.
Any guidance here would be appreciated...thanks!

So guess what...Facebook update released just a few hours ago. Saw it on my iPad and quickly checked on iPhone. Update was there too, so I updated, and the FB app reappeared,on my phone (and it had the "New" designation on it, lol go figure). So, no idea what happened, but fortunately this was the third or so FB update in a week and not one of those droughts of a few months between updates. Very lucky there.
