Tags from 'Comments' field in Windows Explorer don't show up in iTunes
I have thousand of files where I allready put tags directly in the comments field in the files proberties in Windows Explorer, but the tags don't show up in iTunes comments field?
I can then manually put tags directly in iTunes comments field and they will not show up in the proberties of the files in Windown Explorer!
So I ask, why on earth aren't those fields (in iTunes and in Windows Explorer) compatible, when all other fields (for example name, artist, year) are compatible?
Okay, thanks for replies and for your time, but the problem continues.
First: I've ripped CD's in different ways (before starting to use iTunes). I've used Nero, Windows Media Player, Lame and imported mp3 files directly from the internet. Some files have been through Flash Renamer and TigoTago. After importing the files I've tagged them with comments and other stuff directly in Windows Explorer. And then I decided to use iTunes because of buying iPods and playing music through AirPort Express.
What I've tried to right now:
I've tried to check files with MP3Val, but it said the files were OK.
Then I tried - with another laptop - to install I new iTunes program (English language to be sure and there after I imported/ripped a new CD using iTunes to import. Before importing I put a tag in the Comments field in iTunes and it never showed up in Windows Explorer Comment field. I also tried after that to put tags directly in Windows Explorer Comment field and add the files once again to iTunes library, but again, no comments in iTunes. Also again put tags in iTunes, but no tags in Windows Explorer.
Then I did more or less the same using Realplayer to import the CD, but with the same negative results.
*Then I went back to my old laptop, imported a CD using iTunes and then tagged the comment field in Windows Explorer and suddenly I got comments in iTunes! But the comments look like this: "00000000 00000210 000008E8 0000000000775908 00000000 0040E5E1 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000".*
I don't know what to do with this?
And apparently, it's only when importing new files using iTunes to rip the CD, that this happens. Otherwise, nothing happens at all.

When I try open a .pdf file my Adobe Reader 11 only allows the download / save opening the related window and don't show me both options 1) open with ... and 2) save as.... probably someone flagged the choise... always perform this way ....
Could some one give help and let me know where I can probably find the settings option that allows me to change and switch to previous situation where it was possible to decide time to time how to proceed either opening the file or saving it ??
Thanks in advance

Open a PDF from where? If online, in what browser? -
The new iTunes 12 does not have a rent tab. I've downloaded two movies which appear in the Movies folder on my Windows Explorer but not in the actual iTunes programme itself. Completely frustrating! Where can I find these two movies to watch? It asked me once it was downloaded if I wanted to watch it but I wasn't ready to and now can't find where to play these again.
When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.

How do i delete songs from my iphone when they don't show up in itunes? Swiping across the song on the iphone does not give me a delete button.
Hello audreywisc,
Songs can be removed from your iPhone by tapping 'Songs,' then swiping the song, then tapping Delete.
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

I bought an iphone 5C and my music from my dell laptop doesn't let me sync my music into my phone. When i first bought it I accidentally pressed don't show again on itunes. How do I download itunes 11.1 or later now? I have been trying for atleast a month, but I can't find any solutions. I had payed a lot of money on those songs and albums, and now I can't even sync it on to my phone. I know it was stupid of me to press that button, but I need help on trying to get it to sync. -Mohima
You need to have the latest version of iTunes on the computer, version 11.1.3 to be able to handle syncing a newer phone with iOS 7. The iTunes on the iPhone has nothing to do with syncing and is installed by the iOS.
Go to iTunes on the computer, click on Help, Check for updates to update iTunes on the computer, or go to to www.apple.com/itunes/download and download and install the latest version of iTunes to correct your problem. -

But, the memos on the iPhone simply don't appear in iTunes. How can I get the memos from the phone to iTunes?Would this matter then? can you not update the 3g to the lastest software?

Can't delete music on phone and the songs don't show up in iTunes
I've had this problem before and found no solution, so this time I'm going to ask and see if someone else has the same issue. It's not any of the usual problems, so I ended up restoring my phone to an earlier point and it worked, but I don't want to have to do it again.
Okay so the problem I have is there is music in my music app on my phone that doesn't show up in iTunes in the "on my device" section. I listened to music on my phone that I had streamed from the cloud, when you do the "show all music" thing and can play all of your purchased songs. Then when I turn off "show all music" there are random songs that I had streamed but didn't download. I can't swipe left to delete them on my phone, and they don't show up in iTunes as even being on my phone. I can't find a way to erase them. I think they are stored in the "other" section of phone storage because now "other" is larger than it was.
The last time this happened I had to restore my iPhone to a point before this problem occurred and I lost my messages and new contacts and what not. I have a feeling this is not a user fixable problem, but a problem on apple's end. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
ThanksYou're welcome. If that method isn't quick enough you can always delete the whole conversation.

IPod Songs Don't Show Up in iTunes After iTunes 6.0.2 "Upgrade"
After installing iLife '06, and the iTunes 6.0.2 "upgrade" that came with it, the contents of my 4th Gen. 40 Gb iPod don't show up in iTunes. The iPod mounts on the Desktop OK, and even shows up in the Source list in iTunes 6.0.2. And I can unmount the iPod by clicking on the little up arrow icon in iTunes. But iTunes reports only 919.2 Mb used and 36.33 Gb free in the iPod.
I tried copying a song from my iTunes Library to the iPod, and it showed up in iTunes. But when I unmounted, then remounted, the iPod, it no longer showed in iTunes. It was on the iPod, however.
I tried upgrading to the latest iPod software (iPod Updater 2006-01-10) but that didn't help.
I ran Software Update and it didn't find any software that needed updating.
I repaired disk permissions and Shutdown, then powered back up and restarted. Nada.
The iPod mounts fine on my G4 AlBook running iTunes 4.9, and the contents of the iPod are also visible in iTunes 4.9, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem on the iPod.
Don't know if it matters, but all of the music on my Mac and on the iPod was ripped by iTunes from CDs (that I own).
Anybody else seeing this?
Is there a fix?
TIA,
Scot

We're trying to force iTunes to rebuild properly.
With iTunes not running. Make a copy of the library database file (iTunes Library).
Try deleting the iTunes Library file. Start iTunes. Does this then show the missing tracks? To get the original playlists back you can import from the original xml file that you saved.
If you need to get back to the start point just delete the newly created database and .xml files and go back to the originals.

i update my 3gs to 6.1 from 4.1 after installation of software it shows connect to itunes or connect to wi-fi when i connect it to itunes it shows the iphone tab in itunes bt after some times it say we are unable to complete your request please help me
That would be the wireless number assigned by AT&T when the purchaser of the iPhone signed up as a customer with AT&T. If neither you nor your uncle ever activated the iPhone with AT&T, click the "non customer" button.
Note that jailbreaking often renders it impossible to get an iPhone officially unlocked, so don't be surprised if it fails. If it does, then you may have to buy a new iPhone, this time one that is officially unlocked.

Podcasts don't show up in itunes
My nano has tons of podcasts listed but they don't show up in Itunes. It's only an 8 gig nano and so the podcasts really take up my space. How do I find them on I tunes to delete them?
i am not, but i am not using the manually manage option. all of my podcasts are set to sync unplayed episodes, and after i play them on my iPhone, they get deleted from there (but kept in iTunes) on the next sync.
please note - you have to play the podcast to the very end of the file in order for it to be registered as having been 'played'. -

Is it possible to update the comments field once receiving is done
Hi All,
Can anyone of You help on this.
We have done the receiving against one PO. The material is receipt and delivered in the Inventory.
User has enter in-correct details in the comment field (both at header and line level) during receiving.
Now we need to update the comments section with some new commnets.
Apart from backend/ database update, is it possible to update the comments section since receiving is already done. Please suggest some alternate option.
Thanks
SujayHi Sujay,
You won't be able to update the comments once received.
Alternate approach: Perform correction transactions to reverse all the receiving transactions and re-receive again entering correct comments.
Thanks,
