The name of Artist can't be find? Need advice!

Hi everyone!
I have Ipod Classic 80GB and I do experience problem to find the name of few artists after transferring them on the Ipod. They appear on Device/Ipod/music/artist on my iTunes but I can't find the artist by Search on the Ipod. If I search by Album the Album and artist are there. Some of the Albums appear on the Compilation menu even the album is not compilation. It's kind of annoying if you have 80GB music and you can't find somebody. Any ideas how to solve it. Thank you in advance!

There are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song has no album name associated with it or 2) the song is marked as part of a compilation.
If tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances (for instance I read somewhere that if you have at least two tracks with different album names the rest will appear), however the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous to all the blanks in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod
Also if the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Setting "Compilations" on your iPod main menu prevents you getting lots of single artist entries when you load an album by various artists.

You cannot use it. You would have had to set it up on your ipod itself before you lost it. Since you did not "turn on the icloud", then you have not set up find my ipod.
Sorry.
There is no way to track your ipod.

Which iPod touch do you have? If you're not sure, take a look at this -> Identifying iPod models
This Apple article outlines the versions of iOS that will work on each iPod touch.
Notes:
iOS 4.2 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (2nd generation).
iOS 3.1.3 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (1st generation). If you are using an iPod touch (1st generation) with iOS 2.x or earlier, you can purchase iOS 3 from the iTunes Store. See this article for more information.

How do I remove an advertising program by the name of SmartSuggestor? I cant find it in the ad ons and I cant find it in my add remove programs on my pc.

I keep getting these stupid ads that are apparently from smartsuggestor but I cant find the program anywhere on my pc then I contacted the company and they tell me that it is a firefox issue yet i cant find it in the firefox settings either. I went into the Smart Suggestor site and the name of the extension/program came up as "No extension Found". I cant find anything that even resembles anything to do with the program at all not in the add remove program through control panel or through the extension plug ins area in firefox and was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.
I did not download this crap then all of a sudden I am plagued with pop up adds and other sorts of advertising all stemming from this bloody Smart Suggestor. I have got myself a good pc cleaner along with a few Malware removers and also upgraded my security programming but nothing will either find nor rid my pc of this problem. I have downloaded and reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox and I am still having the same issue, has anyone else gone through this and how can I get rid of this problem?

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I purchased a song in the past and now I am trying to buy the album but I can no longer find the album.

i Purchased Aaliyah -rock the boat a while back and now I can no longer find that album in iTunes along with some other good songs by her. The name of the album is Aaliyah

It's possible that the rights-holder has removed the album, and her other albums, from your country's store. Is the album available on other music download purchase sites that you have access to ? Or is the CD available ?

When I erased the name of a file on Path Finder and left it just with the extension, the file simply disappeared...

Nowhere to be found, or at least I don't know how to find it... I tried doing the same thing in the Finder and it won't let me do that, this message appears: (You can't use a name that begins with a ".", because these names are reserved for the system. Please choose another name.). I didn't do it on purpose, but now I want to know what happened to the files and can I get them back...
Thank you.

In affect you are creating a hidden file, by removing file name. You need to either turn on viewing hidden files in Finder, or use third party software for viewing hidden files.
To see hidden files in Finder, open your terminal.app and copy and paste the following command:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE ;killall Finder
and enter (return) then quit terminal.
to revert back change true to false, as below:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE ;killall Finder

This has got to be the worst 'Finder' in the history of the Mac. You can no longer find the file you are looking for without a painstaking search.

No longer easy to use. No longer logical. You now have to trawl through all the files just in case you missed what youi were looking for. Simple alphabetical order is all that is required not this over engineered confusion.

Clicking on the "name" column in any Finder list view will sort by name. Also, make sure you're not looking at the "All My Files" shortcut which is (in my opinion) confusing to many people and doesn't tell you where the files actually live.

TS4079 Siri call me by the name. How can I change that?

Yes how can I change the name Siri calls me?

Activate Siri by pressing and holding the Home button, then say, "Siri, call me _______" and tell Siri how you would like to be addressed.

I simply don't like it and would like to go back to normal. There is no compatible ad-on for my new printer and I lost most of my bookmarks. Can I rewind back to where everything was before the upgrade. I can't even find my bank account.

I hate the tabs on top. Where did all my toolbar bookmarks go? And where are the rest of my bookmarks. I had at least 50 sites I love bookmarked and only about 5 are there now. Oh... but I do have some bookmarks that you put there. I don't want your bookmarks.... I WANT MY BOOKMARKS. See the thing about bookmarks is they mark your place for things you are personally interested in.... Therefore, I see no reason for you to give me stuff already bookmarked. But take away all my own. I never would have updated if I had known it would be so different. We've updated many times and never did I lose everything. I want you to email me and tell me a simple way to go back and retrieve my marks. My pc will let me reset everything to Oct. 2010, but I still lose about 6 months work finding good sites for my hobbies, business and coupons.

I purchased Puss In Boots from the iTunes store and can no longer find it in iCloud

I purchased this movie several months ago and up until today have been able to watch it in iCloud. I no longer find the movie in iCloud or anywhere in the iTunes store. How do I get the movie I paid for?

The link I provided says:
"Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store."
When I wrote "that can't be right" I wasn't referring to the link you provided, I was referring to the line from your post that I quoted aka...
Do not rely upon Apple keeping anything...The re-downloading feature is an unreliable bonus, not a storage service.
While this thread (mostly because of me) now somewhat conflates purchases made on a computer via the iTunes Store and purchases made from the iTunes Store via an AppleTV, I am referring to AppleTV purchases, and I stand by my assertion.
My point was - and I'll state it again more clearly - is that the entire purpose of the AppleTV product is that you do NOT store your purchases separately, that they are available for STREAMING at your whim. Apple does not need to explicitly state this. It is inherent in the product they sell. AppleTV is a media streaming product. And, in fact, their own press supports my assertion:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2012/03/movies-now-available-on-icloud .html
"Movies have joined music, TV shows, books, and apps in iCloud, which means that iTunes movies are as easily re-watchable as your DVD...iTunes stores your movies in iCloud, and they can be downloaded again to your various devices at any time...Movies are stored in iCloud, no hard drive required."
Apple specficially states the movies can be "downloaded again at any time" -- and "no hard drive required". This online storage is not a "separate bonus" -- it is part of the deal. It is a separate matter (and irrelevant to my point) whether one can TRUST Apple to always be there providing that streaming service or whether it would be prudent to back-up any movies one downloads.
My point was how the product AppleTV is supposed to function.
Have a good one.

After fixing all of the names and artists in iTunes their still the same on my iPhone?

I just finished renaming song titles and artist names on my iTunes but they're still messed up on my iPhone. Only a few that I changed are correct. I autofilled the songs and they should have all synced into my iPhone but the songs on my phone still have incorrect artist names and song titles. I have no idea what's wrong. I've been at this for almost 3 hours.

If your tags are correct in iTunes, but incorrect on your phone, you could try removing and resyncing your music library to your phone. Open iTunes on your computer and verify that you have selected "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" in iTunes>Preferences>Advanced. Connect your phone to iTunes, uncheck syncing music on the Music tab in your iTunes sync settings on your computer, sync (which will remove your music from your phone), recheck syncing music on the Music tab, sync again (to restore the music to your phone). Hopefully you will get the correct tags on your phone now.

Guys, I wrote my name in the back of my ipad. Now I wanna sell it and I need to erase the name. How can I do that?

I realy do not know what to do!!!!

Look at it this way, if it's engraved, you can tell people, if your device is ever stolen, it'll be easier to visibly identify it since the engraving makes it 'stand out' from regular devices.
Usually the only way to really identify a stolen or lost device is to hook it up to a computer or find its serial number, with an engraved one, anyone can ID it just by flipping it over.

Hi my iphone searches for the network and i can t not find

my iphone can not find the network

Hi,
I need more information to help solve your problem.
Can your iPhone not find the cellular network or are you trying to connect via Wi-Fi?
Hope this helps.

HT4061 I can't use my ipad mini. All buttons are frozen including the on and off, can't even find the serial number, can't see it on the back, can't find it under settings because no buttons will work. Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

My ipad mini is frozen and won't allow me to use any buttons. I can't access settings to get the serial number for Apple Support and I can't read the serial number from the back. It's too small and shadowy. There is a message that reads "ICloud Backup--This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Back ups happen when this ipad is plugged in,locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
It won't allow me to shut if off using the on and off button. I stuck a paper clip into the tiny reset button, but nothing happens.
Has anyone else had this problem? Please help,

This is the most common "fix" when devices are behaving strangely. It only takes a minute and there's no risk of lost data. This is the reason you'll see this fix being suggested so often.

Hello. I am trying to self host Italia fonts (Book, Bold and Medium) on Adobe Muse. I purchased web fonts from Linotype that are "obfuscated" - which means the name is hidden. Apparently I also need to install system fonts. Can I install with code in muse

Hello! I am trying to self host Italia fonts in muse. I purchased from Linotype the web fonts. But they sent obfuscated fonts and code. I need to also install as system fonts and those do not work for that. We already have different Italia fonts that we owned prior but they are not obfuscated... Is this a problem? Is there an easier way I can do this? TIA!

Abhishek,
Thank you for the reply. Wanted to comment on a few things.
I reviewed the other post that you've referenced. Nothing unusual jumped out at me as something that I was not aware of. I'm running an older iMac that is in good working condition. 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 24" screen. I know this issue is fleeting, as I stated earlier typically can be corrected with a restart of the CC Desktop application (that I am always running at startup). I have not been able to determine that shutting down Muse corrects the issue. I would, at this time say it doesn't.
I did open InDesign and see if the fonts in question, Open Sans and Open Sans Condensed, were present and usable. They were. The fonts are shown as being synched in my CC Desktop app window (even if they are not "installed" in Muse). That is expected but it may be a bug in how Muse brings in a font from those that are already synched to your CC account. I don't know enough about how that works to comment.
And just to complicate matters, Muse seems to be working again, the fonts that is. I brought them back in and they are showing up in all locations (which there are actually three - see screen shots).
First is primary text menu dropdown (to right of orange "Text").
Second is if you click orange Text link. Another drop down menu appears.
And lastly, the Text Panel to right of screen.
I also wanted to add this extra bit of information, for what it is worth. When the issue arises and you do not get the sub-menu dropdown showing various styles of the font (italics, bold, etc.), one can use click on the missing font if you had used it previously and it is present in the "previously used font" list.
Cheers!
