Show content ratings in library

There's a check box in the general tab of the iTunes preferences that says "Show content ratings in library". What does it do really? I uncheck it and nothing happens, I recheck it and again no difference in the way I view my library. By the way, I do have the rating column visible in my views and most of my content is rated.
Thanks in advance. Constantine

Constantine,
It is not the same thing.
The "My Rating" column is either blank, or 1 to 5 stars, as set for each track by your own user input.
The "content rating" can have values blank, "Explicit," or "Clean." If you have checked the option that you noted on the General tab, one of those 3 values will appear next to the name field for each track. Those rating are assigned in the Store, and unless you have wild and crazy tastes, most of them are probably blank. That is why you noticed "no difference in the way I view my library."

How to view parental/content ratings in iTunes???

I have checked the box in Parental Preferences to "Show content ratings in library". Yet, I'm not seeing those ratings anywhere - only the popularity-type ratings. Where should I be looking to see the parental content ratings of my iTunes items???

Oh - duh - they're in the Name field, right after the name.
The item I was wondering about in particular is a series of music videos stored under TV Shows ("The Adventures of One Eskimo"). However, it doesn't show any rating.
So, I amend my question: if a TV Show or Movie doesn't have a rating displayed in the Name field, does that mean it's intended for General Audiences???

I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of looking at it in Finder. Help!

Help! I have 2 problems related to iPhoto:
1: I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of double clicking on it and looking at it in Finder. I cannot figure out how to fix my Pictures Folder so that I can click on it and view it in Finder, when I double click on it Terminal opens up with this message "Pictures - Bash 80x24" and
Last login: Mon Nov 3 14:00:05 on ttys000
Christinas-MacBook-Pro:Pictures christinagrierson$
It will not let me replace or delete the folder... I got to my files and backed them up, but trying to avoid reinstalling my OS.
2: When I try to Upgrade my Library.iPhoto file so I can open it in iPhoto it says I need to finish by opening in iPhoto, but then when I do, it tells me it first needs to be upgraded in the iPhoto Library Upgrader... Vicious circle. Please, help! Just trying to recover about 3 years worth of photos...

Hi! Thanks for responding!
I have iPhoto 9.5.1, I am on OS X Version 10.9.5 on a MacBook Pro with 2.66 GHz
My current "iPhoto Library" file is OK (I can open it with iPhoto), however I cannot access the old one from iPhoto 6 titled Library.iPhoto
I tried right clicking and choosing the application, it did not work.
"exactly how did you "I got to my files and backed them up"" - I showed the contents of my Pictures folder, and it opened up the folders in Finder and I copied them to an external hard drive. In my Picture folder I have several folders of Photos plus the iPhoto Library files (old & current)
I do have old back ups, but they are from April, and I recently imported 5 months of photos from my iPhone, so the iPhoto Library I copied after showing contents is the one I need.

Read contents of Pages library and show in custom webpart

Hi,
How to read the contents of "Pages" library (Published pages and custom created pages only and not reading OOB pages)?
I have a publishing site, in which I need to read the "Title" and URL" of the pages which are created by users and show in a custom webpart. If a new page is published, that page data should be added to the webpart.
Is it possible to achieve this? I know of Content Query webpart, but I need to custom create a custom webpart with custom styling. Is it possible to use the logic of content query webpart in a custom visual webpart? How to achieve this programmatically?
Thanks

The process in 2013 is essentially the same as it was in 2010. The only difference is that you don't have to manually add additional fields to the datafields list in the .webpart file. But the .XSL customization is identical. That's why
you won't find many articles on how to do it in 2013. It was already covered in 2010 and hasn't changed. Here is one example from 2013.

ITunes bought on iPhone won't show up in iTunes Library on laptop

if I buy a song from iTunes while on my phone, shouldn't it be in my iTunes library after I sync?
I have a total of 53 songs on my phone, but only want 41 of them, but iTunes on my laptop is showing that I have only purchased 23 songs.
none of the music that I bought from my phone since the last sync is showing up on iTunes library on my laptop.
Essentially, there are songs on my phone that I don't want anymore, so I want to get everything off my phone and into iTunes, so I can manually drag the songs I still want back to my phone. I thought when I synced it, my entire iPhone/Ipod music library would go to iTunes on my laptop, and I could pick and choose what I wanted to drag back to my phone manually, but it's not working out that way. iTunes is almost empty, and only has the 23 songs I had when I first synced it forever ago, not the 53 songs I have currently. I have always only purchased songs while on my phone, so why are some of them on my iTunes Library, but not the most recent ones?

Don't know (though it would be 30 songs, not 20). A third-party utility, of which there are many, for transferring content from an iPhone back to iTunes might do the job. Check out this post from Zevoneer for some suggestions:

New Photos not appearing in iPhoto but are in Show Contents

Hello,
I am have a few issues with iPhoto.
1. My last two imports of photos do not appear. the Last import is showing photos from back in 2013. If I Show Contents I can drill down and see in Master, Original a 2014/04/12 & 13 folder with sub folders and all the pictures. I made a not of the file names and back in Iphoto I tried to search for the image name but it did not retrn any results
2. I have had to force quit iPhoto 2-3 times in the past two days
3. Today when I open iPhoto, the Events do not show photo is is a black box. If I scroll up and down it then shows some photos, like I would nomally see.
Do this issue seem to indicate a problem with iPhoto, is there an index type issuse.. can I rebuild iPhoto in some way
For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
Thanks

For point 1, can i delete the folders in the "Show Content" option and reimport them?
No. If you know the file name of the photos that are not showing do a search form them with the search tool:
If the image shows up Control (right) - click on it and select Show Event from the contextual menu.
If it does'nt kdo the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

GPO Security Zones and Content Ratings "Modify Settings" buttons are disabled

Task: Trying to modify a GPO so that specific users who logon to Remote Desktop Servers will have a lower Internet security level for Internet Explorer.
We have two Windows Server 2008 Domain Controllers, when I access the GPO using the Group Policy Management Console and Editor on either of the two Domain Controllers, then navigate to User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer
Maintenance > Security > Security Zones and Content Ratings, the available "Modify Settings" buttons are both disabled.
I've read through several forum posts relating to this and the closest solution mentioned was to turn off IE ESC for Administrators on both Domain Controllers. I've done this and it nothing has changed as a result. Is there a way enable the "Modify Settings"
buttons, or is there another way to achieve the task mentioned at the top of this post?

Hi,
We need to import these settings before we modify them.
To import security zones and privacy settings from our computer using IEM:

My Apple TV has stopped syncing TV shows in my iTunes Library

For some time I have been successfully using my Apple TV, to watch TV shows purchased from iTunes on my computer and synched to my Apple TV. Recently my Apple TV lost all of the TV shows which had previously been synched to it. When I now select "My TV Shows", I get the message "There are no TV shows on your Apple TV", and no shows are listed for my Apple TV in iTunes. And although I have many TV shows in my iTunes Library (for example the entire Season 1 of Heroes, with 11 unwatched episodes, and the entire season 1 of "30 Rock" all unwatched) when I try to sync my Apple TV, no TV shows are copied over.
In iTunes, I have tried many times to sync using both the "Automatic Sync" and the "Custom Sync" settings, and various settings listed under "TV Shows" tab, e.g. Sync "all", "all unwatched", etc. for "all TV shows", and "Selected TV shows". In every case when I sync, the status bar says: Syncing "Apple TV", for about 15 seconds, then the synch ends with no episodes are copied.
My version of iTunes is 8.0, Apple TV software version is 2.2.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

* As far as I know I've never changed this field. How was this working before?
Yes this is how it worked before, you may have inadvertently changed this setting (see below-checking/unchecking all) or it might have just happened due to an update or some other glitch for some unknown reason.
* Do I have to check every file manually after downloading?
* Can I automatically check them all?
If you hold down the CMD key while you check/uncheck a single item the instruction will apply to all content in that window. So to check all music for example, make sure all your music is in the window when you CMD-click the check box, not just a playlist or album for example.

Encore Content disappeared from Library

I am using Encore CS6 from Creative Cloud and fought downloading the content, but managed to get it downloaded and stored in the proper place. When I went into Encore and pointed the Media library to the my location of all of the extracted files, it was working fine. Although I did not have the ability to search by the individual sets (General, Corporation, etc), the menu selections were all there as well as all the buttons and other content.
I made a menu and thought it done correctly, but discovered that I did not do it properly, so I deleted and started over. Well now ALL the content is missing in the library. I checked the preferences and it is looking in the right folder and the folder still has all the library content, but Encore doesn't show any of the Library content.
In looking though many threads on this topic, it goes back a long way with a ton of problems, mostly just trying to get the content downloaded. I thought I was home free, but it disappeared completely. It seems that I pay a lot of money monthly for Creative Cloud and it seems this tyoe of problem should not be happening (for anybody usign ENcore CS6), especially Creative Cloud members.
Can someone please help??

Stan,
Thanks for your response. When I downloaded the zip file with the content, it said I could put it any folder and then go into the preferences option and then pick that folder for the media to appear. I created a "Media Download" folder and extracted all the content into that folder. It did work, but without the specific folders for General, etc. I can understand that because the folders were not in that folder. I guess I was hoping that the folders would have been created and filled. No such luck.
I have been playing around after seeing your reply above. I copied the "Set" folders from the "Library" into my "Media Download" folder and then moved some of the menus into the folders to see if it would work. I was having trouble, but I think I finally got some of the new menus to show up from my Media Folder. I was able to click on one of the new menus and it opened in Encore. But no buttons show up from Media folder. They are in the actual folder, but are not showing up in Encore. The first time I got it to work, I saw all the buttons, and other content as I was supposed to. Then all of sudden a little later, everything disappeared. I could not read the text in your screen shot to see if there was other content (buttons, BG, etc) inside the specific folder.
I have a project I need to finish up soon and if I just open the button by clicking a button from the folder into Photoshop and place on one of my menus. Will the it actually function as a button (as long as I "wire" it up properly)?
By the way, I am not able to extract the content into the Library function. I did copy the downloaded zip file into the Library folder and tried to extract the contents. I got an error that said " '0 CRC failed in 'en-US.7z'. File is broken." I tried to extract it with 7-Zip. That was the same app I used when I was able to extract the first time.

When adding folders to iTunes 11, they don't show up in the library. On one folder add, it created a playlist (not what I wanted). On the second folder, it shows nothing. Never seen this before. Advice?

I added my first folder of MP3s and it created a playlist, but didn't show up in the library. When adding a second folder, it didn't show up anywhere. I can do a search for them in the search window, and it finds/plays them, but I want to be able to browse them in my library. These are not MP3s downloaded from iTunes, but are personal files located on my hard drive. Can anyone help?

I have a Dell that's running Windows XP. I have found that itunes is very temperamental. this works most of the time... except on my son's computer that's running Windows Vista.
Go to your library in iTunes. Then go up to file and try one of the options (import, add folder to library, or add file to library).
Adding a folder is the least work. You can add all the files from a folder with one click... if it works. Remember that itunes is temperamental.
If that doesn't work, try adding a file. The problem with that is that you have to go through the whole process for each and every file (song, movie, etc).
Sometimes the only thing that works is to import.
I haven't gotten iTunes to work on my son's computer (Windows Vista).
I can't get support from apple in any way at all! They are good about creating electronics that appeal to us But they are lousy at support. If anyone figures out how to access support (where you can actually contact Apple) please let me know ([email protected]). I've been trying for 6 months.

HT201272 I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else.

I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else. My phone is not syncing properly, I wanted to add another playlist to it that I created on my Mac. I pluged in my phone and made sure the playlist I wanted to add was checked to be on my phone when I synced.
The playlist I wanted to add was "Country." It is clearly checked. I also wanted to add the "Recently Added" playlist, which I also checked before sycing. Currently, my phone only has the "Purchased" playlist and my "All Songs" playlist on it. When I hit sync, iTunes added another playlist automatically added another playlist to the list above and checked it. It was titled "ALL SONGS 1" and had ten fewer songs in it than the playlist I had created, "ALL SONGS" had. This playlist, however does not show up on my phone after syncing, nor does "Country" or "Recently Added." (Every time I sync, another playlist is created as "ALL SONGS 2, 3, 4, etc.") One of the songs (I have not, yet checked the other songs) that I purchased from within iTunes Radio shows up in the "ALL SONGS 1" on this screen:
But does not show up anywhere else. This playlist does not show up anywhere but the two screens above. The ALL SONGS 1 or 2 playlists do not show up here:
When I search for those song in my library, it shows that I do not have them:
But if I go to the iTunes store, I get the play button and not the price of the song:
This is what things look like from my phone's side of things:
"Summertime Sadness," one of the songs I bought from iTunes Radio, does not show up in the iTunes store under purchased "All" or "Not on This iPhone"
But, it does show up under "Recent Purchases"
Also, this is what playlists are on my phone after syncing a million times:
Only what was on there before I started any of this. "Summertime Sadness" and the other songs I bought from inside iTunes Radio, do not show up in either of these playlists. Please, help me.

Newly added songs show up in my library but do not sync to my ipod 6th generation

I recently purchased songs from itunes and they did not sync to my ipod. However they do show up in my library. How do I get them to sync?

Make sure they are configured to sync to your iPod. For example, if your iPod is set up to sync only checked songs and videos, make sure these new tracks each have tick marks next to them in your main iTunes library.
Perhaps this article can be of assistance.
