  • Podcast and genius questions

    I have a 2nd gen 32gb touch upgraded to the 3.1.2 firmware.
    I downloaded some podcasts from itunes last night, via the touch (not on a computer). It showed the download cue and displayed them all downloading. When I went to view them on my ipod touch, only a few of the podcasts showed up. When I plugged my ipod into my mbp (snow leopard 10.1.6) today, all of the podcasts showed up. I can listen to them on itunes THROUGH my ipod touch (they aren't on my computer). However, I still can't SEE them on my touch. How do I fix this?
    Secondly, I have a quick question about the software upgrade. I have the older 2nd gen touch with the 3rd gen firmware. I have apple's new headphones with the built-in mic and remote control. This lets me record stuff with the mic app and also use voip...but I was expecting to have the voice control thing that's advertised as part of the 3rd gen ipod. Does what I paid for not include that? There's also a separate looking genius button and display that is shown with apple's 3rd gen ipod info, but doesn't seem to be part of the upgrade I did. help?
    Thanks.

    Anna is correct. The 2nd gen doesn't have Voice control.

  • ITunes/Podcasting and Copyright Questions

    I am a student at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire and am creating an educational podcast. I wanted to use a song I bought from iTunes recently but want to make sure if it is okay to use. My purpose is not commercial, and I only plan to use roughly 25 seconds of this song. If I cite my source (Artist, iTunes) is this all I need to do, or is there anything else just to be sure I don't infringe on any copyright laws?

    You will be breaching copyright if you use this song: your podcast being free, and your only using 25 seconds, doesn't come into it (there have been court cases over brief samples). It's a breach of copyright to use any amount of any copyrighted recording without the written permission of the copyright owner, or a valid podcast licence. Though it's fairly unlikely you would get noticed, it's a risk which could leave you open to legal action for damages - someone was posting on here recently that he'd had a demand for $25,000 for unlicensed use of a song in his podcast (I don't know the outcome).
    There is music available you can use - search 'podcast free music' on Google, but as regards this specific song I'm afraid is the strict answer.

  • Folio producer and library questions

    Couple of questions...
    1. How do you change the order of documents as they appear in the viewer library?
    2. If renditions have to have the same metadata, how do you recognize which is which in the folio builder or producer?

    1. The Publication Date in the Folio Producer Organizer determines the order of folios in the library. Newer folios appear at the top. You can edit the Publication Date for any folio.
    2. In the Folio Builder panel, hover over the folio to see a tooltip. The team is working on an easier way to tell the difference between renditions.

  • It is impossible to delete entire podcast from library in iTunes 11. Right clicking a podcast entry do not give option to remove the podcast. I more and more dislike this new iTunes look. [NOT SOLVED]

    there is no way to delete a podcast (not an episode, but entire podcast, and not entire podcast library) from the library.

    I have discovered that problem #2 is because I no longer get a column of "check boxes" allowing me to check certain songs.  I get it in the library view but not in the CD view, which is where I need it.  Don't see a setting in preferences for this.  Would solve a lot of problems if I could get a column of check marks.

  • ITunes very slow downloads of apps, podcasts, and music with library stored on a Windows Home Server (WHS)

    First, some history.  I setup a Windows Home Server (WHS) to store all my media.  I had configured itunes to store its library at \\server\music (this would be whatever shared folder you choose to store your music on for your WHS (and possibly NAS box)) and itunes was managing my library.  Once everything was imported into the server, I found I was getting horrible speeds for downloading apps, podcasts, and music.  We are talking 10 minutes to download a 14Mb file on a Fibre connection where I consistently get 25 to 30Mb / second performance.  Syncing my iPad / iPhones was a nightmare due to the time needed to be invested in it.
    The server, the PC, the router and corresponding switches were all gigabit and yet I was getting dial-up speeds.  Transfering files between systems was well within spec, but itunes was running as if it were using smoke signals.  I spent some time searching various user groups and support sites to no avail.
    To correct this, I only had to log onto the WHS (or NAS) and disable the iTunes Server.
    Reboot of the server, reboot your iTunes PC, and you are good to go.  My podcasts went from a 20 minute download time for an average episode of T.W.I.T. to about 7 to 10 seconds.

    UPDATE
    Please disregard the above.  While the above did improve performance for a short time, the problem returned.  I spent the next week running a full Spinrite on all 4 1TB HDDs that were in the NAS.  All drives were fine.  I then did some research on the individual drives, and it turns out that 3 of them were 7200RPM Hitachi's and the latest drive added was a 1TB Western Digital GREEN drive (WD10EADS).  This was the source of the issue.
    Additional information available at http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=32179
    I replaced the WD10EADS with another 7200RPM drive (seagate this time) and the NAS has been working flawlessly again (again, disregard the above post)

  • Fresh Install of iTunes and some Questions

    I just did a fresh install, set up home sharing, and did an iCloud match so my whole library is in the cloud.  I have my library file stored locally but my music files on my NAS.  Here are my questions:
    1.  I want to install iTunes on my wifes computer, set up iTunes match for her, set up shaing.  She will have a "shell" setup where notjing is stored as she is sharing with me and accessing the cloud.  Do I need to set up that computer under my user id even though she has her own?  I figure thats the only way to get her to iTunes match that I have?
    2.  How do I do this all?  Meaning, I will have a local library file for her but I need to point her laptop to the NAS with the files on them.  If I change her iTunes media file to that location on the NAS and check keep organized, will it screw up the files I have there?  I noticed when I did that on my PC it moved some fles around and I had to reassociate lost files to songs.  Took hurs.  Would iTunes have done that automatically for me somehow?  Should I not check the keep organized for her as she will not be adding music anyhow?  What is the harm either way?
    3.  How do I see my pictures on my ATV unit?  I thought I used to be able to but don't see an "app" on the ATV to do so, just photo stream which I do not want to do.  I thought I used to be able to access the pictures stored on my NAS?  Am I dreaming this or did it go away?  My NAS is an iTunes server and I swear I used to be able to access them from my ATV?    All I see on my ATV under my library is music, podcasts and movies. 
    4.  I have my NAS sharing (home sharing) and I can see it on my laptop with iTuenes installed.  When I click on it I see only music, no movies or anything else, why is that and is it something to do with home sharing?  But, like I said I can see thse movies on ATV under my library.  I can also see my playlists on the shared on my laptop but nothing is in them.  I think that may be becuase they were set up under another library and now that I hve a new library file, they don't carry over?  I don't see any of said playlists in the sttandard iTunes interface under playlists, just under the shared however like I said, no files in them.  Also, the share comes and goes as in sometimes I see it sometimes I don't however I am always able to access the NAS from iTunes.  Strange, may be network issues?
    5.  Along those same lines, sometimes the home share just up and dissapears from ATV.  Maybe a network issue?
    6.  Lastly, I just did my first backup/sync to my new laptop with the frsh install of iTunes on it.  It gave me some sort of message that I can only sync to one computer and do I want to overwrite or whatever?  I said no and it did nothing.  After that, I did a back-up however it seemed to go fast and I also did a sunc.  The sync was three steps, used to be like six and I did not notice any of my new apps being copied to it.  Something is wrong here but not sure what to do, ideas?
    Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    #4 - make sure you are sharing out all the items in your itunes library (music, movies, etc)
    you should be able to do that under preferences
    you may also want to check if it is pointing to the correct library
    #1 - home sharing should work on the LAN w/out the need for signing in; the shared libraries should appear under "shared" in the left sidebar of itunes
    think this may resolve the issues you have on #2 as well
    #2 - itunes doesnt seem like it's built for that, but if you have any experience, i'd like to hear it.  this seems why home sharing is the usually the best route to go and just have one instance of itunes managing the library
    but as long as the NAS or any media drives are shared out, connecting to it should not be a problem.  it's the writing to the itunes library that's the issue.  i haven't used Match so can't help there.
    depending on your OS, you can either ctrl-click or option-click on the itunes icon,
    which will also give you the option of selecting a library location upon launching itunes
    you can navigate to the location of the library file and point it to that.
    technically, you could do that but i believe the actual library has to be stored locally
    as long as you still have all the media, then you can just rebuild the library
    but for locally shared items, as in, all inside the home, i would leave icloud out of the equation
    just use itunes sharing and it should be fine

  • Music Store not updating podcasts, and what's with relevance?

    First off, I'm frustrated as all ****. I went to the iTunes Store support site and apparently you can only get help on issues they allow. . . there's not a readily apparent help email or phone number, and none of their chosen topics answer my questions. . .as if no one could EVER have an issue outside of those few they choose. Very closed-minded.
    Okay, rant over.
    Now, I've updated a second episode of my podcast, and iTunes will even download it in my podcast subsription library, but when I click on my 'cast in the iTMS, it's only showing the first episode in the list below. Is this possibly an XML issue, or is the store that slow?
    my xml file is at:
    http://www.dc-kingdom.com/STC/stc.xml
    Also, the relevance is very odd. They have me listed at a pretty low relevance for the very subject my podcast is completely dedicated to. How is relevance determined, and can it change?

    Never mind: The next time I opened iTunes, I was prompted for the Air America login just like I expected. That doesn't explain why it didn't work the other night, so I guess my question wasn't really answered... but apparently my problem is solved anyway.

  • Problem with podcasts and iTunes 6.0.1.3

    Hi everybody!
    First of all, please excuse my poor English: I'm French. I'll try to do my best to write as well as I can.
    I have some difficulties with podcasts and iTunes 6.0.1.3.
    When I "sign up" (FR: "s'abonner") to some podcasts, they are not updated in my iPod nano indeed (and some others are), although iTunes says: "Your iPod is updated" (FR: "Votre iPod est à jour").
    I have no way to put these podcasts episodes in my iPod...
    Could you help me please?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi iFriend,
    try this, it worked for me:
    1) first of all, uninstall QuickTime and older versions of iTunes from your PC, using the "remove" button in the "install applications" tool that you find in the windows control panel.
    2) reboot the system
    3) turn off the windows firewall application; go into the windows control panel, double click on windows firewall and disable the firewall option
    4) if you have one, disable your Anti-Virus application; i mean its real-time protection.
    5) probably it's not necessary, but for being sure... download and launch the standalone installer of QuickTime (latest version)
    6) download and launch the iTunes + QuickTime installer from this web address
    7) as an option, i suggest you to download and install also iTunes Art Importer. It's a nice application, that allows you to import from the internet directly into iTunes the album ArtWorks of the selected tracks in iTunes. I installed it, and it works very well with iTunes 6.
    8) after all the installations, remember to enable both firewall and anti-virus previously disabled!
    as i said, probably the 5th passage is not necessary, but i did it and it worked!
    if you have any questions or feedbacks, just relpy to this topic. stay iTuned!
    bye, bye,
    Marco

  • Podcasts and syncing with iTunes 6.0

    So I just hooked up my iPod with iTunes 6.0 for the first time. After changing the drive letter (don't know why I needed to do that), it seemed to sync fine. Except that it started uploading 188 old podcasts that I've played (Parts of audiobooks). That struck me as odd, so I verified that I'm set to sync "Only unplayed episodes". So I looked under the Podcasts part of the iPod in iTunes, and it looked fine (only the unplayed ones appeared there). I was all set to just write it off as a random oddity, when I noticed that all the podcasts, played and unplayed, appear in the library part of the iPod information (still in iTunes).
    It appears that iTunes 6.0 sees podcasts in the library (which they are, of course), notices that they're not in the library on the iPod (since they're somewhere else, presumably), and sent them over. Anyone know a way to deal with this short of unchecking all the played episodes, which isn't high on my list of things to do (i.e., is there some preference I'm missing)? Or should I be reporting this as a bug to Apple?

    See this thread:
    Damon Durand, "A new podcast bug in iTunes 6" #3, 03:25pm Oct 14, 2005 CDT
    Basically, iTunes started syncing any podcasts that appear in smart playlists if they're checked, even if they've been played. Workaround is to set all smart playlists to include "podcast is false". You can also right-click on any podcast and go to the "Playlists" entry, which will tell you which playlists its in.
    Hope this helps!

  • I need to uninstall downloaded version of Elements 12 on a computer, then install Elements 12 on the same computer directly from a disk. Elements 11 was previously used on same computer, and the albums and library had been moved to the first installation

    I need to uninstall downloaded version of Elements 12 on a computer, then install Elements 12 on the same computer directly from a disk. Elements 11 was previously used on same computer, and the albums and library had been moved to the first installation of 12, which I am removing. How do I correctly unstall the old Elements 12, and install the new elements 12 from disk, and retain all albums and libraries from the old Elements 12?

    You're welcome.  It was not an answer, it was a question, and it could lead to being helpful if you explain why you think you need to uninstall.
    As far as uninstalling goes, you will uninstall it like you do for any program, which depends on what kind of operating system you have.  If you wish to retain albums and whatnot, maybe the following link can provide some guidance.

  • Upgrading Itunes with an external hard drive and another question

    Okay so about a month ago I transferred my itunes library to my external hard drive. I have since purchased and downloaded new music/video to my Ipod. Here are my questions if anyone can help me please.
    1) Because I moved the library to the external, does that mean I also moved the Itunes program OR just the place where new music is downloaded/purchased and save to?
    2) Upgrading to new Itunes on this computer, will that ruin what I have in my library or just upgrade and keep everything the same like it is now?
    3) Horror story I heard is that when I upgrade, I may have to re-purchase music from Itunes in order for it to play on new Itunes. If that's true then I am paying like $400+.
    I'm not a dummy, but this Ipod and music are very, very important to me. Any help would be very appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Gusaphit

    so because you have kept your itunes folder and library on an EHD, I take it you have also deleted the actual Itunes program folder from your computer's C drive?
    Not the program folder, iTunes folder where your music library and ancillary files are kept. I haven't had my iTunes music on any internal hard drive on any computer for years.
    I am trying to delete the music/movies off of this PC as it is my work station as well.
    What steps do I need to take in order to successfully ensure that my Itunes will be secured on my EHD and fully operable should I want to add more music, purchase more music, or delete/re-arrange music as I am doing now.
    Check in Preferences>Advanced to make sure that iTunes is pointed to your EHD. If it is, you should be fine. Then, just to make sure that everything is where it should be consolidate your library: File>Library>Organize Library.
    Follow-up: If I move the program over to my EHD does that mean I can use any PC to download music into the Itunes library from my EHD?
    I don't think you want to move the iTunes.exe file to your EHD. As I understand it, iTunes isn't really happy there and it takes some work to get it there. Just move the library.
    I'm asking because you responded and you're cute.
    Very happy to help but really, I'm not that cute.

  • ITunes 10.5 64-bit resetting preferences and library

    I have been reading the discussions here, but have not found anyone with the problem I am experiencing with iTunes 10.5 64-bit.  The problem is as follows:  Each time I start/restart Windows 7, iTunes reverts all settings and the library to the default settings from installation.  I store my music files on an external drive and esperience no loss of files, album art, podcasts, playlists, etc. upon start/restart.  This issue has only appeared since work upgraded the laptop to a 64-bit machine, on which Apple will not allow a 32-bit version of iTunes to be installed.  I have saved a backup copy of all the files in the C:\Users\(user)\My Music\iTunes folder once iTunes settings and library were updated to point to the files on the external drive.  However, no matter what I try iTunes returns to the "installation" state everytime the computer is started.  Note: As long as the computer is running, I am able to open and close iTunes without losing the settings and library.
    Keeping fingers crossed in hopes someone can help!
    Software: iTunes 10.5.0.142 64-bit
    Laptop: Dell Precision | M440
    OS: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit

    Thanks to NCPlater, here is the solution that worked for me:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17207475#17207475
    After following instructions for three different solutions that did NOT work; I found the solution that did work
    on the support site for Syamntec.
    Readers - Please, you must be VERY familiar with pc jargon and windows vernacular to accomplish the reset
    of ALL the permissions in your registry.
    Follow the ditrections below and pay attention to the notes for those running 64bit Win7.
    Step one, back up the registry.
    Step two, go to the MS KB:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf -ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en and download the file that installs subinacl. It is an MSI file, and will do a quick install of a few Microsoft files.  Hint: Look in the folder listed below, "subinacle.exe" may already be there.
    Step three, create a batch file (subinacle.bat) with the following commands:  (Use Notepad - copy & paste, not the red stuff)
    cd /d "Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools" (only for 32bit/x86 machines)
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %windir%\*.* /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose For 64bit machines substitute for first line of bat file:                    cd /d "c:\program files (x86)\windows resource kits\tools"
    Step four, run the batch file. Let it run until the Command Prompt screen closes, may take 30 minutes or more.
    Step five, reboot the machine and run the install again.
