To change info in library file then info, only the most recent cd's allow me to change info, all others 14,000, do not, any ideas???

Understand to change cd info in library  File then info, as of recent only the most recent music added to my library enabled to make changes, all others (14,000) do not highlight change categories, that is gray not black. Any suggestions.

I suspect a permissions problem. This can happen when a library is moved between systems or the system is upgraded to a new version of Windows.
Right-click on your main iTunes folder (or ithe Tunes Media folder if that is elsewhere) and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownneship from an account with administror privileges.

  • How do I change mail so only the most recent mail from a person opens?

    When I open mail and go to a new mail all of the files/documents that, that person has ever sent me from previous days open as well. The other emails that I do not want also show up on the right side of my mail in the preview the document part. How do I change it so that I only see the email I am clicking on not a scrolling document of all of the mail items the sender has sent me. Also how do I change it so I only see the most recent item (the one I am clicking on) in the preview email on the right side? Thanks

  • How do I create a .llb file that includes only the subVIs used in a VI?

    hi....
    can anybody help me ...i wanna creat a library file that holds only the sub-VIs that are running in particular main VI .
    are there options for that in labview??

    I don't think understand the answer. From just the top level VI, do like I said and an llb will be created with the top level and all subVIs. You can also edit the llb (Tools>Edit VI Library) and make your main VI top level. A note of caution. An llb was originally designed as a means of storing VIs with extended names. With modern OS's allowing long file names, an llb is less useful except as a convenient means of distributing a group of VIs from one location to another. This would be done as a final distribution such as an instrument driver or to another developer who would then convert the llb to a folder. There are several problems with keeping the development VIs in an llb. One is that it doesn't work with any form of source code cont
    rol. Another is that a corrupt VI in an llb can and has made the entire llb unreadable so unless you are absolutely religous about backups, you made find yourself in deep trouble some day.

  • HT201269 i backed up my iphone to iTunes and then when i restored the back up info was not from the most recent backup, but from May!!! what can I do to get yesterdays data?1

    i backed up my iphone to itunes and tried restoring the info on to a new iphone and for some reason it used an old back up from last may.  I know that the recent back up worked as I used it to set up another phone a week ago (a phone whihc also had problems and hence I needed to use that same back up again on my second new phone.  Is there anyway I can get the most recent back up information back?

    1. Create a backup of your iPad to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud
    2. Transfer any and all photos & videos on your iPad to your computer.
    3. Erase the iPad and restore the iPhone's iCloud backup to the device.
    4. Transfer any and all photos & videos on your iPad to your computer.
    5. Restore the iPad backup you reated in step #1 back to the iPad.

    Repair iTunes Security Permissions
    Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
    If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
    Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
    If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
    The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

    Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
    Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab.  Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos.  Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window.

    Short term, free up some disk space. Long term, move the library to a bigger drive.

  • HT1414 I'm trying to restore from an earlier backup but my iphone only shows the most recent. I'm on Windows Vista and found the backup folder. If I delete the recent files, will it force the iPhone to backup from the next older file?  Why doesn't it show

    I'm trying to recover a file and the app company said to restore from an earlier backup.  My iPhone only shows the most recent backup.  I've been searching the net for answers - I found the back up file and date sorted them (over 6mb of files).  How can I get my iPhone to restore from an earlier backup? 
    I am on Windows Vista so I don't have Time Machine. 
    I have backed up the backup folder so if I mess it up, I have it in a separate place.
    Can I just delete all the files with todays date in that backup folder and have it forced to the next oldest date?
    Why doesn't the iPhone show a list of the least several backups.
    Info:
    iPhone 4S
    Software version  5.1.1
    Backed up to computer through iTunes (not iCloud)

    As you backup the iPhone in iTunes, it overwrites the last backup. Files are kept as they are changed, so that would explain how you get different dates in your backup folder. The only backups that are saved and not overwritten are the ones done just prior to a restore. You do have the option to go back in time on a Windows computer, however depending on the last time you set a restore point in Windows, it could be back further than you are willing to go.

  • I updated to the most recent itunes and now most of my songs are unfindable! Where are my song files?

    I now have a library of downloaded, purchased and loaded songs with exclamation points next to them. Surely, I couldn't have lost over 300 songs! I have not changed computers just upgraded. Why can't I access these songs?

    Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
    to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

  • [Solved] Vim: Can only undo most recent change

    Howdy-ha, folks.  So I've been (very) gradually making the transition from Geany to Vim over several months, mostly without issue.  However, I've been reluctant to use Vim for anything other than quick, simple operations for one reason: The "u" key will only undo the most recent change, as though there aren't any other changes in the history.  Hitting "u" a second time reverses the "undo" command, so that repeatedly hitting it will just remove and add the same small change over and over again.  No matter how much time I spend looking into this it seems I'm the only person who's ever had this problem, and it occurs regardless of whether /etc/vimrc and ~/.vimrc exist.  As a result, I can't do any complex editing for fear of botching something and needing to spend hours backtracing my mistakes.  Any help on this is appreciated.

    That would likely be the issue: I overwrote the default with my own config file, without including runtime! archlinux.vim in my own config.  As far as I can tell, things are working as both user and root.  I suppose I should have paid more attention, but then again, there's no mention in the Arch wiki entry about not altering/deleting any of those files:
    Arch Wiki Vim Entry wrote:
    Vim's personal configuration file is located in the home directory: ~/.vimrc. Advanced users tend to keep a well-tailored ~/.vimrc. The global configuration file is located at /etc/vimrc. The fall-back $VIM variable is defined as /usr/share/vim/. For example, to create a global colorscheme the *.vim colorscheme file should be stored in /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/.
    Currently, the vim global configuration in Arch Linux is very basic and differs from many other distributions' default vim configuration file. To get some commonly expected behaviors (like syntax highlighting, return to the line of the last edit...), consider using vim's example configuration file:
    cp /etc/vimrc /etc/vimrc.bak
    cp /usr/share/vim/vim73/vimrc_example.vim /etc/vimrc
    It seems the comment in /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/archlinux.vim is all new users have to go on, and it's not usually the first place anyone looks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
    The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
    My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

  • HT1420 After updating to 11 for itunes and ios 7 for phone - I lost over 3500 songs from my itunes.  My ipod still has 4100 songs on it less the most recent ones I have purchased.  Can't my ipod be used to recreate the library in itunes?

    After updating itunes to 11.1 and phone to ios7, I lost more than 3500 songs from my library. My ipod has 4185 songs less the most recent I purchased.
    Is there no way an ipod can be used to restore the lost music?  Yes, some of it was from cds but were done a long time ago.  Obviously it was acceptable for me to compile this music then, now they want to say since it all wasn't purchased, I can't have what was already mine?  Plus I do not use nor want to use the cloud, but it keeps creeping up even though I don't want or use it.  HELP!
