Possible resolution to sorting issue in iTunes 9 and 3.1

For those experiencing issues sorting Podcasts chronologically:
One particular daily podcast I subscribe to was not sorting correctly (was in random order on the iPod Touch 32gb 2nd Gen).
I did notice the "Release Date" wasn't carrying over to the iPod during the syncing process.
(If you try this, copy any podcasts you can't afford to lose to a separate directory)
1) I unsubscribed from the podcast in iTunes 9
2) deleted all the episodes from iTunes
3) Synced iTunes / iPod - (basically removing remnants of the podcast)
4) Went back to the iTunes store and subscribed again to said podcast
5) "Get" the episodes I wanted
6) Synced iTunes and iTouch
Thankfully, this corrected the issue of random sort order on my iPod - now the "Release Date" is again noted / visible when looking in the iPod and it is ordered correctly.
Hope this provides some relief to some.

I had this happen with my 3GS almost a month ago. No amount of trying to restore would work and the Apple Genius claimed he had never seen anything like it.
My iPhone was bricked with the error 23. I plugged it into XCode and it failed to restore saying there was a radio failure. There was no 3G, no WiFi no edge and no bluetooth. They were all grayed out in settings. Apple replaced my phone with no problem. This is what you will end up having to do as well.
You will be able to restore from your previous backup.

The list above is sorted ascending, or at least it was set to do that.
I have tried sorting asceding and descending to see if that would help but nothing.
Thanks

I figured it out. Somehow the sort name was under the acter names for the two that were out of place.

Is it possible to copy a DVD into iTunes and then upload it to my iPad? Is there any way of doing this?

Is it possible to copy a DVD into iTunes and then upload it to my iPad? Is there any way of doing this?

Sure, just use Handbrake to encode the DVD movie into a format that is playable on iTunes and on your iPad:

Once the encoding is complete, move the movie file from your desktop into iTunes and then sync your iPad. Presto, the movie is on your iPad!

Is anyone having issues Updating iTunes and getting message 'itunes64.msi' file missing?

I have been trying to update iTunes 9.2.1.5 to version 10.22 for windows (64bit) and keep getting this message.
Network resource is unavailable. Find an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package. 'itunes64.msi' is not found.
I've been trying to update itunes, so I can update my iPhone4. I've tried installing different versions, same message. I tried uninstalling itunes, and I get the same message! I've searched my computer for this file and cannot find it. I have a Dell XPSM1530 with Windows Vista Service Pack 2.
Does anyone have this problem? I've searched for a solution, but nothing has worked. I also just emailed Apple support about it, we will see what they say.
I would appreciate some help.
Thank you!

Network resource is unavailable. Find an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package. 'itunes64.msi' is not found.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

Differences in sort order between iTunes and iPod

Can someone explain how the sort order of artists / albums works? It seems that it is different between iTunes and the iPod. In iTunes (7.3.1) I can enter data in the fields for Artist, Album Artist, Sort Artist and Sort Album Artist. When I get the tracks to appear in the order I want in iTunes, it doesn’t seem to transfer across to my iPod. I know there are some differences in how the sort order works in both, but how is it different?

ou must have an older iPod.
I believe the new sort order only works on the new iPods (Nano and Video)

Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.

HELP!! Issues with iTunes and Windows 8.1.

So I recently upgraded to a new laptop with Windows 8.1 and I have been experiencing some issues that I need assistance with. So far the issues I need help with are:
When I try to get album artwork for my songs, it gets through a small fraction then just kind of freezes.I have a lot of songs and albums but I have never had this problem before.
When I try to connect to the iTunes store, it takes quite awhile and then I am left with either a blank screen or album/song/etc. names and no pictures.And when I click on another link, it takes forever (again) and I experience the same issue while trying to travel to the new page.
I don't know what else to do and I can't figure out a solution. Please help me!!!

Hello RavensFan94
For both your issues, it sounds like you are having a hard time connecting to the iTunes Store to get album artwork and viewing content. Check out the article below for some troubleshooting options to get it working again.

How can i fix an update issue between iTunes and my iPod Touch

I've recently found my iPod Touch's cable that plugs into the usb drive of my computer. I Downloaded the latest version of iTunes onto my computer, but my ipod hasnt been updated in a while, and when i plug it in, an error pops up in itunes saying I need to unlock my ipod touch in order to sync it. I cannot do this, because when the ipod is turned on/plugged in the only thing that shows up is the image of the ipod cables usb end with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. How can i resolve this issue and fix my ipod touch?

You need to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes on its syncing computer. For recovery mode see:

Burning issues with itunes and Windows Vista Ultimate

I recently purchased a new computer with Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit version. Since loading itunes on my new computer I can not burn a CD. The message that I receive says that there is no burner available. I know the burner works because I have burned music out of different software programs. I have loaded and reloaded Nero 7 but I am finding that is not the problem. Itunes does not recognize any type of CD burner on my computer. Any thoughts?
Thanks

paul's onto it.
if you run your DVD/CD diagnostics (in itunes "help > DVD/CD diagnostics", select DVD/CD diagnostics) and you see a 2380 error showing up down near the bottom of the diagnostics (you may need to scroll down a bit), try reinstalling the 64-bit version of the GEAR drivers iTunes uses for importing and burning.
here's a link through to the GEAR drivers. note that there are two different versions of the 64-bit drivers. be sure to get the one that matches your hardware:

Photo Sorting Issues with iTunes 10.1.1.4 & 3Gs

Hi, folks. Does anyone know what logic iTunes uses when sorting photos from a computer during sync? I have a large set of photos I'm trying to keep chronological (as they are on my computer) but every time I sync them, they get all out of order on the phone.
At first I thought iTunes sorted by the name of the photo. Nope. Then I thought it was the EXIF Date Created tag. Nope. Finally, I figured it had to be the Date Modified tag. Again, no.
I'm really hoping someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong here. I'd really like to understand how the software sorts images during sync.
Thanks!

When i installed the 64 bit version of itunes (my operating system is 64 bit) and select it i get an error saying "itunes.exe has been set to run in compatability mode for an older version of windows. For best results turn off compatability mode for itunes before you open it".
When i right click the itunes link and check compatability mode nothing is checked except run as admin.
Now with itunes the latest itunes i can not even select an app to remove or move.
Can someone please help me?

Fixed my problem myself.
I was installing itunes to my d drive so i uninstalled it and installed it to the c drive with my operating system.
All is perfect again.
Cheers
