Songs I've never heard of in my icloud??

I opened my itunes library for the first time since the newest version of itunes was installed on my computer. All of a sudden there are all these songs I've never heard of listed in my library with an icon to download from the icloud. These are definately not songs I've purchased. What are they doing there?? and how do I get rid of them?

I have also found mysterous new songs appear in my iTunes as living in iCloud. About 250 of them!
Sometimes they are a duplicate of songs I already have and sometimes they are songs I have never heard of, like Karina, Can't Find the Words. None of the new songs appeareing in iCloud are particularly good, or in my taste. I even have videos appearing in iCloud, like Kanye West Can't Tell Me Nothing.
Not what I usually listen to. Except for, that is, the songs that are now duplicated on iCloud, like Bad Romance by Lady Ga Ga. I'm not sure, but perhaps about half of the 250 songs on iCoud are duplicates of what I already have.
I have the choice to download the icloud songs into my iTunes library, and apparently at no cost. I can also delete them with the usual, Are-You-Sure warning.
I think this happened after I upgraded to the new version of iTunes. Is this a gift from Apple for upgrading?

Over 100 new songs appeared in my iTunes. Artists I've never heard of. All seem to be "iCloud" songs

over 100 new songs appeared on my iPad, and also on my laptop. All of them seem to be "iCloud" songs, though I don't fully understand iCloud. on my iPad, some of my songs are missing. That was how I realized the problem. I was making a playlist, and some of the songs i wanted to put in there were just gone. kept browsing artists and saw a few album covers I didn't recognize. when I went through it again, I found a LOT of songs I didn't recognize. so I checked my music library on my computer. the missing songs are still there, as are the new mystery songs. sure enough, when I sorted my music library by "cloud", a tiny handful of my own music was "cloud", but most of them I've never seen before. my iPhone seems to be the only device not affected. but now, I'm afraid to sync the iPad or iPhone with my computer, if it's just going to be deleting my music and replacing them. When I figure out what happened, I'll delete all of these new singles. I'm trying to think what I did differently recently. I backed up my computer on an external hard drive (if more of my music disappears, I hope I'll be able to retrieve it from previous back-ups. most weren't purchased from iTunes Store). when I make playlists, it sometimes tells me adding iCloud songs will do something, but I never have any problems. I don't care about storing things in the cloud when I don't understand it or see the benefits of it. All I want is my music on devices :) I haven't downloaded the new software update that I was prompted with yesterday, I will once I figure this out.
has this happened to anyone else? suddenly a lot of music you've never heard of appears in your music library? I'm so confused..

I bought new music on itunes for th first ime in years and the updates erased all my music from my ipod and none of the new music that I bought was downloaded...a bunch of stuff I never heard of is now on my ipod. How do I reload my library?

I went to itunes for the 1st time in years and bought music. The updates removed all the songs on my ipod and did not downlaod my purchases. Instead I have a bunch of songs I never heard of. How do I reload my library on my ipod and get rid of the terrible junk that is on there now?

Was this a different computer/iTunes library than what it you had originally sync the iPod with? If so, that would explain why all of your content that WAS on your iPod was erased, since an iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time.
As for your current predicament, you'll need to figure out how your iPod is configured to sync music and then adjust it so that the stuff you don't want on it is removed during the next sync operation and the music you DO want on it will be transferred over to it from iTunes.

ICloud gave me an album i don't want to listen to and have never heard

Hi, i was on my laptop this morning, and I saw an album called "Songs Of Innocence" by "U2", I have NEVER heard of this band or whatever, i deleted the album as normal with Right-click and delete on my laptop, but when I slide the toggle for "Show All Music" that album keeps popping up, if anyone can teach me how to delete that stupid album permanently (i dont want to see it when i turn on "Show Alll Music") i'll be grateful, i've lived an OCD music lifestyle, my songs have been fixed (removing the songs i don't like) for over 2 years, my music library shouldnt show this album when i turn on "Show All Music", please help, losing my nerves and patience, thanks, i have an iPhone 4s, 16gb Black, it seemed to have happened after the Keynote of the IPhone 6 and 6+, I don't know if apple were giving it away but i dont want an album that completely ruins my song library, i dont want to see this album whenever i turn "show all music"

It was a gift from Apple to all iTunes subscribers. You can't delete if from your purchased list (even though you didn't technically buy it), but you can hide it so you don't have to see it anymore as explained here: iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

On line banking for another person, my Mom, who I have power of attorney for heard ppffzzzttt while inputting Mom's sensitive id info in while trying to log in again? I've had the iPad 3/ 4 & 4.5 and never heard this sound before.

I tried to access my Mother's bank for online banking. She has had a slow decline with dementia, I'm Power Of Attorney for her. When not being able to sign in, I heard through the iPad 4 Wi-fi 64 gig, a measured buzz sound, like ppffzzzttt. I've had 3 / 4 & 4.5 and never heard this sound before.
I have had Power of Attorney for my Mom for quite some time. She has been suffering with dementia in a slow then sped up type after her last heart attack. I was the worst candidate for the job but no one else would take it.
I set up banking on line so I could pay her bills. I am disabled and have trouble paying my own. The iPad again filled those shoes perfectly.
I logged on yesterday, and the page said, user name not found. I figured it might have been server maintenance or poor typing but even with all personal details the server would not send my user name.
I became concerned because today I received the Vudu letter that said their headquarters were broken into on March 25th, 2013, and a number of hard drives were stolen with all info they keep on me. They set up an all clear id free of charge for a year, if I wanted to take advantage of it which I did.
The part that bothers me is when I was inputting my Mother's sensitive id information my iPad 4 / Wi-Fi / 64 gig emitted a measured buzz sound 3 times. I have had the 3 / 4 / 4.5 / faster processor but did not go for the 128 gig 4.75, and in all that time I have never heard that sound.
The question, was the bank computer or the FBI probing my iPad 4 and did it place something on it in the memory or damage it in anyway.
I was on the phone for the next three hours with the good, bad and ugly at Citizens. After talking to an acquaintance bank manager who said she saw no problem and did not know why I could not log in. I spent the next three hours on the phone and ended up talking to a nasty tech who said, it was a rule that I could not do my Mother's banking on line anymore. A "rule" prevented me from acting in that manner. It all, from every party sounded so "hinky," Don Johnson, Miami Vice and wondered if there was a rule at all.
I asked him why and what triggered the on line banking system to suddenly boot me? The fact I had set it up about one year ago to date and it has performed flawlessly since that time and a whole year later it flagged the account. He said it could have been anything, pressing the wrong key, etc. I knew he was getting edgy so I ended up getting off the line with him because nothing would be accomplished.
I would appreciate any and all speculations, ideas, or suggestions as I look over banking law, rules, in the next few days. By the way, the money we are talking about is miniscule. A small SS check and an even smaller pension check.
Thank you,
halfcack

That situation went from inconvenient to complicated quickly. Wait for any pending orders to drop off, wait for things to clear up, wait till your upgrade comes up and then upgrade when your contract is fulfilled. I would have suggested a replacement phone, I know, with only a month left why couldn't you just upgrade early, but these situations where people try to upgrade early always end horribly and once a phone order starts, it almost cannot finish until something winds up shipped received and returned. Sorry this happened the way it did. Definitely not efficient.

I never heard about the Macbook recall for cracked casing along the bottom of the keyboard. Is it too late to get it fixed?

I never heard about the Macbook recall for cracked casing along the bottom of the keyboard. Is it too late to get it fixed?

I realise maybe your personal issue was sorted, but it may help others:
I took my wife's 3-year old Macbook into the genius bar yesterday expecting to pay for a new casing, but was told there was still an extended warranty for Macbook plastic case (provided up to 5 years old and no signs of abuse)
They will replace the top case and screen bezel at no cost, which I think is excellent service.

Appstore displays updates for 2 applications I have never heard of. How can I get rid of them ?

Hello,
In AppStore (Lion and now Mountain Lion) I see two applications that I have never heard of. When I try to push the update button, I'm prompted to enter the password for two accounts I have never heard of. I tried re-indexing all the disk space available with locate.updatedb and tried to find any reference about any of those two apps without luck.
Please, can anyone tell me what can I do so I don't see them as "requiring update". Or see them at all for that matter ?
Here are some explenatory screenshots to help make my point.

This type of behaviour can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:

* [http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php Ad-Aware]

You may have the "Google re-direct virus", for details on that see http://deletemalware.blogspot.com/2010/02/remove-google-redirect-virus.html
If the above malware scanners do not find any malware or can not clear it, you should consider posting in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:

What is the FIPS password deal about?? I have never heard of it, much less knowing the password for it.

Just a nano-second before I sign in, this big box appears, demanding me to supply my 'FIPS 400' password (or something like that). And I can't supply the password, having never heard of FIPS, so I have to change to Safari to go online. Sigh//Sheila

Sounds that you have entered FIPS mode.

OMG! Why have I never heard of this befo

OK, i've only been in the forums for a short while, and I have been reading a lot stuff about iRi'ver, a product i've never heard of before... So i decided to check it out..........AND **bleep**! That is one fine Jukebox. Take the iRi'ver H320 for example, its the one that I want!!!! Everything i look for inside an MP3 player, and you know what, the software was designed by Bill Gates (Microsoft). Can any of you tell me something that is bad about iRi'ver to make me feel better. (This is also $0 cheaper than my Zen Touch with a built in radio!!!) It also has image viewer, smaller, dual optional power supply...
I am totally blown away by the features and price.... I think I'm about to cry T_T

Log into your iTunes account, then click on previous purchases then select the purchased app and then click report a problem. Then write and explain your problem and I am sure it will be considered.
Also change your iTunes password as soon as possible.

I have bought a new iPad air, I decided it to restore it from the last iPhone 5S backup, and now it's asking me about two iCloud accounts I never heard of in my life. WHY?

The iPhone and iPad draw whatever charging current they require. The iPad draws more.

When I turned on my computer this morning a heard a fan go on for the first time. Is this something I should be concerned about, I am sure I have never heard it before.

When I turned on my computer this morning, a fan like noise and air came out of the back of the computer. I have never heard this before. Should I be concerned, and why am I hearing this for the first time?

I don't believe it is cause for concern, but I would perform a System Management Controller reset:

From the above:

The System Management Controller (SMC) is responsible for many low-level functions on Intel-based Macs. These functions include:
Responding to presses of the power button
Responding to display lid opening and closing on portable Macs
Battery management
Thermal management

I have never heard the fan in my 24" iMac run until.....

I have never heard the fan in my 24" iMac run until the other day after the power was acidentlly unpulled from the UPS. During the power-up the fan came on and ran at what must have been full speed ahead, a minimum amount of small was blown out. The high speed continued for a long time, I had no idea as to what was happening.
I preformed a restart and when the power up was complete all was fine, and I have never heard the fan run again. This unit gets warm but has no fan has ever run to the best of knowledge. Now it seems like it should run sometime during hi CPU usage??
Any thoughts.
Thanks in advance

The fans are software-controlled, so it's likely that the unexpected loss of power scrambled things temporarily. It probably caused the controller to forget its previous fan settings. When this happens, the fans go to max to protect the computer until the controller can regain new settings appropriate to the task.
The fans run all the time. Their default speed is low enough that you must have the computer in a very quiet room to notice them at default speed. When sensors detect that the internal temps have exceeded a theshold level, the controller send a command to have the fans speed up.
On my mid 2010 iMac quad-core i7, web browsing, word processing, running through e-mail--typical office tasks--have never made the fan speed up. Gaming can. So can videos. I was wathing a commercial DVD movie last night and noticed the CPU's fan speed has moved from its default of about 1000 rpm to about 1300 while the moving was running.
I believe what you saw was normal, and a chance to see how smart the system really is to realized it had lost stored fan speed info and moved the fans to a safety setting while software sorted out the effect of the loss of power.

Mac app store tells me to log into edited by host account to update apps(that I don't own) but that is not my account and I never heard of this email. Is there a fix for this?

Everyone here - please take a look at this thread ( the last two posts by WZZZ and Thomas Reed):
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15205291#15205291
It appears that a) Hotmail has 19 domains functioning as distributors for malware and b) someone is distributing pirated software. Although it does not appear to be related to the recent trojan, my suggestion: stay away from both.
Edit: so why does everyone here appear to have pirated software (and doing it through it App Store)?????

I Need To Hear Modem Sounds Because I Sometimes Travel To Places You Have Never Heard Of.

Hi!
I have an EliteBook 8740w with Windows 7. I NEED to hear my modem sounds! HELP!
Thanking you in advance,

Niels approach to get the BootCamp Assistant back is recommended because usually the correct way to remove your Windows partition is to use the BootCamp Assistant again which should give you the option to remove the made Windows partition and revert back to one OSX volume.
After that's done a reboot of your Mac might be advisable.
Only if that's not working (whatever the reason) :
1) boot your Mac from your OSX install DVD
2) choose your language and then 'ignore' (cancel) the installation
3) from the Top Menu (Utilities) start Disk Utility (DU)
4) in DU click on your harddisk (not any partition) in the left pane (the first item listed)
5) in the right pane use the 'Partition'-Tab
6) click to highlight on the ex-Windows partition you want to delete
7) click on the small '-' Button at the bottom
That should delete your former Windows partition
After that's done successfully
8) Drag the partition separator line until it encompasses the entire drive and then select apply.
9) Quit Disk Utility
10) reboot your Mac from your harddisk.
Since you are 'fumbling' with your OSX partition you should consider having/making a backup of it before trying the a.m. procedure. Just in case.
