TS4009 Why does Music use 3 GB on my iPad when I'm using Cloud? Is it the pics of album covers for my playlists? If so can I replace them with simple list like my Song list?

I noticed that I am using three gig storage for Music when in fact I am using the cloud for my music. I also noticed that when I choose set list I have pictures of artists on my iPad. Could that be the reason I am using so much space? I use the cloud in order to not use up much storage space for music on my iPad but yet it appears I am.

I belong to iTunes in order to put music on my computer and sync to my iPod. I don't know if I belong to iTunes Match?? I have noticed that the vast majority of my songs when not connected to the Internet are grayed out and not playable.. Then again there is a minority that are playable. Why are the color album photos of my playlist on my iPad.music. Does't that use up storage space? Is there a way to get rid of them?

why does it say rogers 3g on my ipad when it should say rogers 4g

You may be in an area where Rogers doesn't yet have 4G. If so, the iPad will drop back to 3G and will display that to let you know you're running on the older network.

Why does Software Update want to install ProKit Update when I don't have any of the listed apps?

Software Update just prompted me to install ProKit Update 7.0. I don't have any of the applications listed in the description. I searched for each with Spotlight just to make sure. My Macbook has only a clean install of Snow Leopard, Microsoft Office 2008, and Xcode 4.0.2. Why am I being prompted to install this update?
Extracted from the description: This update is recommended for users of Final Cut Pro, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, DVD Studio Pro, iPhoto, Aperture, Final Cut Express, Logic Pro, MainStage, Logic Express and iAd Producer.

It doesn't check whether any of those applications are installed. All Macs come with iPhoto. You may have removed it, but SU doesn't know that.
I do not have iPhoto installed and it was never installed. iPhoto is part of iLife, which is on disc #2. I slicked the disk and did a clean install of Snow Leopard using only disc #1. I am surprised that Software Update doesn't check what is installed so it knows what update to install, I thought that was the whole point of Software Update. It seems to know what hardware drivers are installed and will only install updates for those specific drivers. But fine with me, I will install that update.

Why does iTunes use 100% CPU all the time, hogging my Macbook Air?

Decided to post this here instead of the iTunes forum, since it might be related to hardware too.
New owner of a 2011 13" Macbook Air, core i5 based.
My problem started about 1 week ago, after it had run out of power completely one day. At the first boot after that it was incredibly sluggish, totally unusable. After waiting for 5 minutes and still being unresponsive, I turned it off and then back on. Then it booted fine. HOWEVER, ever since that time I noticed the following behavior:
- iTunes stays at 100% + CPU all the time, mostly between 100-120%. Even if it's not playing. Even when I deleted the entire library and left it empty.
- iStats reports CPU idle between 50-65%. However, CPU temperature is still about 55 degrees C (which, I think, is far less than what it should have been with 50% idle cpu). I can confirm the low temperature by touching the chasis.
- the cursor freezes and jumps every few seconds, making the mac kind of unusable with iTunes open.
This has been going on for 2 weeks now. The problem goes away every now and then (iTunes sometimes goes back to regular CPU usage of 3-5%), but most of the time it's there.
Help!
P.S.
Mac OX X 10.7.2
iTunes 10.5.2

Cee Pee You, is a OS modification. Apple recommends that you un-install these prior to a OS update because Apple makes changes to the OS all the time which breaks programs like these.
I avoid Unsanity LLC products like the plague. Notice the company is a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC), which makes it difficult to sue the company in case of a defective or malicious product. So the risk using their products is all yours. Their APE framework modules have been used for malicious purposes because anyone can write a module that uses the APE framework.
I also avoid installing anything that requires a administrative password unless I completely trust the source, like Apple mostly. That admin password is the key to the security of our machines, not to be given out lightly or carelessly.
You'll have to contact Unsanity's [email protected] because what I'm reading online is it's very difficult to remove as it doesn't "exist".

Why does a face show up on my iPad when I have deleted it from aperture

I am using aperture to tag a modestly large library (about 22,000 photos) all for personal use. I've been going through these photos and tagging faces. As a sort of "holding pen" for faces that I wasn't sure about in the unnamed faces strip at the bottom of the faces page, I put ?? (i.e., two question marks) as the name for a bunch of photos. Then I went through that face and either put the right name in, when I was able to see the full picture, or deleted the face - i.e., clicked the little x in the upper right hand corner of the box surrounding the face.
Most of the images disappeared just fine, and the "??" face no longer appears on the cork board in my aperture. I can find no evidence anywhere that I can see that the ?? face tag still exists in aperture.
But it must, because when I sync with my ipad, there is a face called ?? and there are pictures in it. When I look at those pictures in aperture on my Mac, I can't find the face - I must have deleted it.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how to stop it?
I have been having trouble with aperture syncing in other ways - I was getting a variety of errors in itunes when syncing the ipad - and so have gone through many steps, including repairing permissions in my aperture database, repairing the database, regenerating previews, turning synchronization off and on, repairing permissions on my hard drive, deleting the preferences (plist) file, and so forth, but even doing a clean installation of the photos onto my ipad (i.e., turning off sync and deleting photos on ipad, then turning it back on and putting the photos back on from aperture after doing all the above steps), I am STILL getting this ?? face.
All help will be gratefully received.

Homesharing has issues that have not been fixed over several versions of itunes and ios.
Only kind of fix is go back through your library and retag it.

Mail - why does it use Firefox rather than the default, Safari?

Hi,
I have both Safari and Firefox on this iMac that's running 10.6.8. Safari is my default browser.
Within Mail Preferences, the Default RSS Reader is set up to use Safari. However, Mail always links to Firefox. Why is this and how do I change it?
Thank you,

Nevermind, I've figured it out!

TS2972 Why does my library show on another computer even when my library sharing is off in the itunes settings?

Ok in my setting all sharing with computers on my local conection is off....yet my fianes computer still can get into my library why?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes match doesn't provide movies or TV shows.
Depending on where you are located you may be able to download purchesed content from iTunes in the cloud. Content that is streamed from your library obviously needs your computer to be on or otherwise it wouldn't have access to that content, there is no alternative to this.

HT204053 I have forgotten my questions and answers for my password. How can I replace them. I want to use the same password I have ?

I was on the phone for almost 2 hrs. yesterday because I had so many passwords I couldn't remember the one I used for itunes. The fellow helped me get it all straightened out but it still wouldn't let me get in because I couldn't remember the questions and answers. He was going to take care of it at that end and told me to wait 24 hours. So I'm at it again. I got into itunes but when I try to retrieve my previous apps,it wants me to put my password for that as well and then I'm in the situation with it not accepting my password so when I try to change my password it then wants me to answer the question and answer so now I'm thinking I have more than a seizure disorder and it's driving me to the point of no patience. Can you help?

You may have no need for additional but Apple does. They don't want your iTunes account to be hacked and then go complaining to them that their security procedures are not up to standards.

Its really absurd to even ask this in light of the information that you have been given already. The "old fashioned" way is gone. It's Apple's store, Apples's rules and IMO - its a wise decision on Apple's part.
You do not have to comply at all, but you will not be able to purchase from iTunes anymore, but nobody is going to force you to do something that you do not want to do.

Yes, the quality and efficiency of the audio should be the same for both methods. The fact that it isn't may suggest that you have a problem on your network. Have you checked for interference.

Issues with Simple Lists in service requests

We are using Service Manager 2012 and have run into a problem with simple lists within the service requests we created. We believe the issues started after we upgraded to Service Manager SP1 and Silverlight 5.1. What happens is you can select
one of the options in the simple list, but if you decide to change back to the original option, the system won't allow it. In the case where there might be three options in the simple list (i.e. New, Change, Delete), you can select each one once, but
if we try to change it back to any of the other options the system won't allow it. We tested all of this before going live and everything was working, but just before we went live SP1 came out and so we elected to upgrade to it first. We then needed
to upgrade to Silverlight SP1 to work with Service Manager SP1. We retested all of our service requests again just before going live, but didn't think we needed to go through every simple list so we didn't retest this. Since then the simple lists
are problematic. Has anyone else experienced this and if so is there a fix that will correct this issue?

Yes!
We submitted a business impact statement back in February and after pushing them on a weekly basis, we finally received word that we will be receiving a hot fix next week. Until we actually receive the hot fix and confirm that it works, I will wait
to post another update on this.
With that said, they came up with a temporary workaround about 2-3 weeks ago. This is the message regarding the temporary fix that we received from the engineer that has been working on the issue:
After doing code review I identified the regression was introduced in the binaries that are included as part of this Silverlight XAP file:
RequestOfferingSilverlightModule.xap. As we discussed on the phone going back to the pre SP1 version means you will lose any enhancements/fixes that were introduced in SP1. Looking at the Change history for this module I only see two changes
that were introduced in SP1 and those changes are as follows:
The text field control only shows the first three lines.
Hierarchical support for List Items in Portal
To confirm my findings I replaced this XAP file with a pre SP1 version and I couldn’t repro the issue in my lab. I also confirmed implementing this module I lose the
above fixes that were introduced in Sp1.
To implement the workaround, please follow the below steps:
Connect to the Web Content Server, locate the following directory:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\System Center Service Manager Portal\ContentHost\Clientbin
Rename the following file RequestOfferingSilverlightModule.xap
to RequestOfferingSilverlightModule.xap.org
Copy the attached file RequestOfferingSilverlightModule.xap to the folder:
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\System Center Service Manager Portal\ContentHost\Clientbin
Restart IIS by issuing the following command at the command prompt:
iisreset
Clear the client side cache and see if you can reproduce the issue.
Once confirmed the issue doesn’t reproduce, please proceed with testing all scenarios that make use of the Self Service Portal.
If you don't have the pre SP1 version of the file I'm sure you can get it from Microsoft. We are not using hierarchical lists so the temporary fix is currently working for us without any issues.

What is "Directory Service" and why does it "use up 194%" ?

What is "Directory Service" and why does it "use up 194%" on my istat CPU app monitor?
Ever since I installed Leopard I've noticed this happening more and more - especially when I install an external hard drive or unplug my ethernet line - this is plainly weird and never happened under Tiger - the temperature shoots up to 84° also - I always to a restart to get rid of it but it's kind of worrying....anybody have any ideas?

Had this happen myself.
It does have something to do with Spotlight/searching. Should go away after a while, or so I have heard from other users, 'cause it hasn't stopped driving me and my fan mad yet.
Am going to have my MacBook index and follow-up on indexing and whatever else it feels is necessary to finally allow me to search in peace over the weekend while locking it away where I can't hear it.
Hopefully that does the trick.
If it wasn't for things working better/faster and most things looking better I might actually consider taking Leopard off again ...

Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest?

Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest? It's not a major problem but it would be nice to be able to fix it, and to understand how it happened.
Everything else is in English (or set to English) as far as I can see, and my Macbook is only a couple of weeks old. All system updates have been performed and permissions have been repaired.
It displays it in Finnish (Suomi) as 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' only when logged in, in the System Preferencess user list and apple menu (where you would normally select 'Log Out Guest User'). I cant find anyone else with the same problem online. I am in the UK, purchased the Macbook on the UK Apple Store online, and I have never been to Finland or selected anything to do with Finland or its language. Everything else is in English.
I should add that 'Vierastilin' showed up instead of 'Guest User' on the OSX login screen on the first day I had the Macbook, but this seemed to fix itself somehow soon after.
A couple of photos to illustrate the problem that still exists are attached.

Thanks for the reply. I only have English - Primary but I guess I could add Finland and then delete it...
Okay, tried that, lots of variations including deleting all other languages and only using Finnish, and then using only British English etc - when guest is in Finnish the whole lot becomes Finnish/Suomi (see attached photos to compare with the ones above) - then when you delete Finnish and go back to English, everything is Englisg apart from 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' as above.
Any other ideas where it stores that info - is there a dodgy preference file somewhere which needs zapping?

I have my ipod backed up on multiple computers but only one computershows all my playlists. How can I get all my play lists to show up on multiple computers?

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to a different computer if your current one is out of commission. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it.

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them. I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone. I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added. So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them? It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.
