Problem invoking iTunes from certain browsers

Users on Mac OSX using Firefox and Opera cannot open iTunes from the following iTunes U enabled URLs (http://asuonline.asu.edu/itunesu, http://itunes.berkeley.edu, http://itunes.stanford.edu, http://www.fuqua.duke.edu/itunes.), and our own URL. Is this a browser specific issue?

I don't know about Opera, but I think the cause of this on Firefox is your preferences.
In the address bar type: "about:config". Now in the Filter text area that has appeared type "itmss".
Make sure that the value of the "network.protocol-handler.external.itmss". The value is true.
Now enter this url into the address bar:
itmss://deimos.apple.com/
This will likely bring up a dialog box in Firefox which basically asks if you are sure you want to use an application different from Firefox to open this URL. Check the "Remember...." box and then click "Okay". That should permanently solve this problem.
This is a hassle, but it is a good security feature of Firefox.

Problem using iTunes from Public Terminal

My problem is downloading from certain Public Terminals that will not allow iTunes to be installed and the IT at the local library refuse to allow it to be installed.
At home, I am on low-speed dial-up (56k) that prevent me from downloading TV Shows due to numerous time-outs and length of time for downloading.
Is there anyway I can access the iTunes store and download without having iTunes installed on the Public Terminal?
Currently, every few weeks, I go to the nearest University and use their Public Terminals to download material, but would prefer to use the local public library as it is much closer, and I could download more stuff.
Thank You for your assistance in this matter.

I have no experience with anything this author advises. It sounds interesting, though and may provide you with direction.

Problem invoking Javascript from applet

Hi,
I have a hidden iframe in my JSP. While submitting the form within the JSP, I set the target of the response page as the iframe and disable all the form elements in the JSP . The response page contains an applet that pops up a window(a JFrame). On pressing the close button of the applet's frame, I invoke a Javascript method in the JSP. This javascript method enables all the components on the JSP.
Now the issue is that, when I press the close button, the browser just hangs... This doesn't happen on all the browsers.. It works with Opera. In IE it doesn't work all the time. Some times IE just hangs... Any idea what the issue could be?? Pls let me know if the problem is not clear..
Thanks in advance..
regards,
Anand

Funny I've just posted something about this on another thread.

You can apparently call methods on your applets from javascript.
http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/communicator/jsguide4/livecon.htm#1007749
I know that most of the LiveConnect package works in NS4, NS6, IE4 and IE5, but I have always called out to JavaScript from Java not the other way around so I cannot vouch for this in IE.

Problem running Itunes from external hard drive- Please Help!

So, last night I transferred my entire music folder over to an external hard drive. It copied all the files and I then proceeded to tell itunes where my new music folder was located. The problem I ran into was when I actually deleted the music files from my internal hard drive my library won't automatically find the files. When I click on a song it comes up with an error message saying, "original file cannot be found, would you like to locate file?". If I tell it yes, I can then manually tell it where the file is, and it will play. I'm really hoping there is an easier way around this issue because going in and doing this for every song in my library would take years. Should I clear out the library and then drag it from the external hard drive? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

I am experiencing a similar problem. I already had all my files on an external drive, where I had transfered them a few months back, and everything was working fine. I have now moved them, again, to a larger external drive, did everything the same, but now receive the message "original file cannot be found, would you like to locate file?" I was advised to use the "add to library" button under "FILE" in the menu bar and all the music was finally imported into iTunes, but the problem now is that the new data on the music files is missing all the metadata, and I am still stuck with all the original files with the "!" in front of each file that is going to have to be manually deleted one file at a time, all 30,000 of them. I would like a way to start over and get it right the first time. Anyone have any solutions? I have found a program, "Super Remove Dead Tracks" which should solve the problem of eliminating the "!" tracks, but so too all the metadata. Ideally I'd like to be able to locate the original files with all the attached metadata and get back to where I was 24 hours ago.

Problem transferring ITunes from old to new PC

Old XP pc had 7000+ tracks in ITunes. Started having problems so bought new Vista pc. Got ITunes 8 loaded onto new pc and started to copy existing ITunes info onto my portable hard drive. However, at approximately every 400 or so tracks the transfer ran into problems, probably due to limitations of old pc, so I had to transfer all the music files in stages. Got the whole lot into the Music>ITunes folders and looked ok. The library opened in ITunes and in the music folder, I can play any track. Unfortunately, when in ITunes, if I select a track and click play I get an error message along the line of "cannot play the track as cannot find the original file" it then gives you the option to manually search for it.I could do that for a few files, but not 7000. I can't get it to play any of the tracks. Any ideas??? Support not any help.

It doesn't sound right for the files on my PC, I am quite OCD about having file names I can find and making sure the MP3 tags are good. ; )
If that's how it was on your old PC, it does sound right -
It might just be easiest to start over with a blank library. Do a ctl-A and select all the tracks, then press delete, If you get a message about sending them to the recycle bin, for god's sake say NO. You shouldn't get that message anyway, since itunes can't find the files.
Assign your portable drive a letter way down in the alphabet like M: for music.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307844
Set your ituens preferences > advanced tab > itunes music folder location to
M:Music or whatever your top-level music folder is named.
Now drag that top-level folder from Windows Explorer over into yoru blank itunes library list. It should add everything.
An alternate way to do it is File > Add Folder.

Hey guys :)
I incorporated the changes suggested by David and "reberst" and then did the stuff told by "LathaDhamo".
Now I am able to invoke the VM without problems and my test program runs and displays windows and takes in input etc.. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
But now, I noticed that all this happens only when I am in debug mode in VC++ and step thru the program. When my external program loads the DLL I created automatically, I get the error message that the "JavaTest" class was not found. This will lead to errors when I deploy the DLL or package it for others. How do I ensure that the class is always found? What do I have to do?
I am sorry for being so amtuerish and asking so many questions. This is my first time using JNI from the native side.
Thank you,
vijai.

Having problems syncing iTunes from mac to iPhone. Help?

Trying to a sync an itunes genius playlist from mac to iphone. Message appears on iphone that says"88 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more info." Any advice?
There were 95 songs in playlist, some did transfer while others didn't. Not sure where to look at "itunes for more info".

Are you syncing contacts direct with the Address Book on your Mac via the iTunes sync process, or over the air with MM on your iPhone?
If you are doing the former, this has nothing to do with a problem with your MM online address book.
If you are doing the former, try resetting the sync history on your Mac, which is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
Quit iTunes and launch iSync.
At iSync preferences, select reset sync history.
Restart your Mac and try syncing with iTunes again.

Problem recreating iTunes from External H/D - basic advice needed

Hi. Would really appreciate some help on this - am sure it's very simple but I can't seem to get my iTunes back to the state it was in before I saved everything to my external hard drive and cleared my macbook iTunes ready to add new music to. I know that all my music is stored on the external hard drive but when I connect it to my macbook, click on the external H/D icon on the desktop and click on my External Itunes folder I created,I hoped that I would be able to see and use all my saved music. I'm sure when I've done this previous times (after saving and clearing) it automatically repopulates my itunes with everything I have stored on the external PLUS everything I have added since my save. Now, all I seem to be able to do is click through to an individual song (from the external iTunes)and this ONE song will then appear (with artwork) and i can play it fine (and it will stay in my macbook iTunes with an exclamation mark after external h/d is disconnected which is what I want) but there must be an easier way of retrieving all my old songs than dragging them through one at a time.
I understand that I won't be able to play the external hard drive songs when the external hard drive is not attached but I'd like to be able to SEE them to know what I have.
Can anyone help me with this please? Thanks

I want to transfer around 160GB of iTunes files to an external hard drive that I can then use on my macbook to access my music, videos etc as I need to - but I also want that hard drive to work as a time machine back up drive too.
1. Is this in any way achievable as I lay it out above? Is it doable for some with basic mac skills?
Yes. I'd recommend buying an external disk of at least 320 GB (80 x 2 + 160).
2. Will there be any issues with iTunes accessing music bought on the imac with the external hard drive connected to my macbook?
Not really. You'll need to "authorize" your MacBook for your iTunes account. Be sure to "deauthorize" the iMac before you sell it.
3. I'm guessing I need to partition the new drive for it to be dual use on my macbook. Does it need to be partitioned on the imac before transfer of files?
You should partition it into two volumes so that the iTunes files and the Time Machine files don't share the same volume. Definitely do that before you copy files to it.
Disk Utility will partition a drive. Be sure to use the "Options" button on the partition screen to set the "Partition Map Scheme" to "GUID" and format the two volumes to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".
4. Should I wipe the macbook and do a clean install of snow leopard before I attempt this? There is nothing vital on the macbook that I can't live without.
That's up to you.

Problem transferring Itunes from iPod to New Dell, iTunes and back to iPod

Hello - yesterday I uploaded my iTunes library to new Dell Inspiron Windows Vista successfully by "Transferring Purchases from iPod" back into iTunes;
I am unable to download the "New" library back to my iPod now. I am able to purchase from iTunes and see/listen via computer new iTunes songs, but not able to re-download library to iPod Nano. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Since you have a Mac you can use a program called Senuti. It transfers all your material from your iPod to your computer. Download Senuti, then in the preferences, set your destination folder to the iTunes music folder. All the content on your iPod will be placed in there and then all you have to do is transfer that to your new iTunes library. Hope it works out.

Problem switching iTunes from sterling to euro

I started out with a UK iTunes account and have moved to Dublin. I have 54pence remaining on my account. I don't have a credit card and use vouchers to make purchases. I now only have euro vouchers but can't switch country unless the balance is zero but can't spend the remaining 54 pence as there isn't a song or app for this amount.

There is no way to do it yourself. To get rid of that little balance, you have to contact iTunes Customer Service.

TS1717 are there problems with iTunes upgrading from Vista to Windows 7?

are ther problems upgrading iTunes from Vista to Windows 7?

The best method is to use Windows Easy Transfer first to backup all your data, and do custom clean install. And install all your apps and drivers afterwards.
Yes it should work. Make sure you are ready, and have all the latest drivers and applications ahead of time.
There are some "gottchas" with the upgrade from Vista.

IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

iMovie 11 audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
This will require:
A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too, as they will be extremely helpful later.
4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
I hope this helped!

I cant get itunes on my new laptop. My laptop says I have to remove itunes from another computer as I can only have it on 5. Problem is that apart from my ipad, I no longer have the others as they were either broken beyond repair or lost. Any ideas?

I am not good with computers. I am trying to get my iTunes onto this new laptop but it says I am only allowed to have it on 5 computers and I must take it off one to ut it on this new laptop. Problem is, apart from my iPad, I have lost one laptop and two have been broken beyond repair so I am unable to take it off! Anyone any ideas? I have tried to get iTunes support but cant get past the "date of purchase" as I can only guess when I bought my ipod (2009)

Hang on...
You can only authorise the songs you purchase from the iTunes Store to play on five computers.
You can download and install iTunes (the iTunes programme) onto as many computers as you wish.
Two different things.
Assuming therefore, that your problem is that you have authorised five computers, but now no longer have some of them, you need to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise the computers you still have.
To de-authorise your computers, go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the Deauthorise All button.
