Unable to edit/change songs

Recently my nano/or ITunes stopped allowing any changes to my playlists. It is allowing and adding new song purchases (somewhat random placement) but is not allowing me to capture and drag/move songs??? What's up?? I tried creating new list, same problem.

*I tried creating new list, same problem.*
Is this new list selected when you select the iPod and click the Music tab?

Unable to edit my songs in my shuffle, such as deleting songs from my shuffle and adding new songs into it.

When i first bought my shuffle a few years back, i would use the itunes in my old laptop to add/delete songs from it. However, recently i realised im unable to do so on my new laptop (using itunes). Today, im unable to add/delete songs from my shuffle, using my old laptop or new laptop. Need help on this, as im unable to change my songs in my shuffle. Appreciate any help or suggestions.

ITunes 8.0: Unable to Edit Multiple Songs / Loss of Menu Bar Function

I upgraded to iTunes 8.0 today but am now unable to use any of the top menu functions, as I click on them and no choices pop down from each of the File, Edit, View, etc.
Also, when I go to update the information on multiple files, the information editing screen appears quite scrambled and doesn't allow any changes to be made.
Is anyone else having these types of issues?

I'm having the same menu bar problem in iTunes 8.
Also I've noticed there doesn't seem to be a way to view all of the songs contained in my library, like I used to be able to in previous versions. (The fact that I can't access the preferences menu item – because there is none –doesn't help.) Workaround for now: smart playlist. But I really don't think I should have to resort to that.
And sans menus, I can't turn my visualizer on either.

Unable to Edit Downloaded Song Information - iTunes 11.0.1.12

I downloaded an album, which I found that I could edit half of the songs. However,the rest of the songs are grayed out. I searched, but I couldn't find how to fix this issue. I read that turning off iTunes Match would help, but that didn't do anything. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I unable to edit my songs or artists

can anyone help, i can't edit anything

Try to create a new Firefox profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?

When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?
When I purchase ITunes music, and it is a song from a Greatest Hits album, the Year of the song shows the year the CD was released and not the year the song was released (i.e. a song may be from 1986, but the Greatest Hits album was released in 1999, so my songs in ITunes show 1999). So, I go into each of those songs and change it to the year that I want to be displayed. As long as I don't exit out of ITunes, it will show the year that I changed it to (i.e. the 1986 year in this case). But if I exit out of ITunes and then return to ITunes, the year reverts back to 1999. The same happens if I change the genre of a song from, say 'Pop' to 'Alternative', it will revert back the next time I log in.
Oddly enough, as soon as I right-click on that song to change it back, the year/genre that I had entered returns.
How can I make it so my changes are permanently displayed as I want them? This is pretty annoying when I try to find a song on my Ipod under a certain genre, but it doesn't appear in that genre because the incorrect information gets synched to the Ipod.

Make sure that these two options in Edit > Preferences > Store are turned off:
Then exit iTunes and open it up again. Your metadata entries should then be persistent - with these options checked iTunes will be comparing what you have with the information held in the iTunes Store, and will overwrite with the latter for Store purchases (and if you have iTunes Match). If you have any iOS devices you should also turn off Show All Music under Settings > Music.

How can I edit/change/update/remove album artwork for a song in iCloud?

Dear Community,
my problem is the following.
I'm editing my songs/albums artworks and when I change these artworks, iTunes Match syncs my artworks back to the original ones.
I've tried a lot of things, read a lot of discussions but I didn't find a solution for this problem.
For example:
I've deleted for an album all of my songs artworks, then set the good one. Then I've done an update for iTunes Match in Store menu. My artworks didn't changed on an Apple TV2
If I just delete the artworks, do an iTunes Match upgrade, the artworks on an iPhone 4S & Apple TV2 remains the same (I've also removed the songs from my iPhone and redownloaded them...)
I used TuneUp iTunes plugin for song identifying. It did a very good job, changed my artworks, my metadata, everything looked good. After a few minutes iTunes Match synced, the artworks restored to the old ones, but the metadata info didn't changed, it is updated in iCloud too.
I'm also tried to get artworks from iTunes, it worked very well for some albums, but again: iTunes Match synced...
I've turned off iTunes Match, done the album editing. Again when I've turned on iTunes Match, the album artworks restored..
In my opinion if I use a cloud service, anything I do locally in my iTunes library, it should sync up to the cloud. EVERYTHING means music, music metadata, music artwork etc.
So what is the solution?
What can be the reason all of this?
Someone has the same issue?
Is it a bug?
One more thing
In this album all of my songs has the same artwork (David Guetta: One Love)
Look at the BRAVO hits cover

Try this, it has worked for me.
1. Make a new, empty iTune library by launching iTunes while holding down the Option key.
2. Choose create new library; do NOT have iTunes scan for music.
3. Enable iTunes Match on the empty library.
4. Find the tracks with the wrong artwork, highlight them, Get Info and paste the correct artwork into the "artwork" field.
5. When finished update iTunes Match, then re-launch iTunes while holding down the Option key and chose select library to get back to the "master" library.

Hi,
The issue is resolved. This is because of Acrobat JavaScript option disabled in display preferences of the form.
Once this checkbox is enabled its working fine.

I can't change any information for any songs in my library, everything is just greyed out. How can I get the ability to edit my song information?

I can't change any information for any songs in my library, everything is just greyed out. How can I get the ability to edit my song information?

I found one other way to do it. I just deleted them all out of my iTunes library. Now I can re-import them from Window's My Music file with the original artists' names intact.
Thanks for your help, Matt!

Unable to edit, add or change passwords in iphoto web gallery

Iphoto and Web Gallery were working great but recently, I am unable to add, change, or delete passwords to my web galleries. When I go Settings and into Edit Names and Passwords, I can add or change a password but when I click OK, it will not allow either clicking on OK or hitting return. I have also posted an album to web gallery and it does not appear in the list in Settings or in the Edit Name and Password lists but I can see my gallery out on the web with all photos.
Any help on why this is. I have both a IMAC and a Macbook and it is the same with both computers using my imac account. Both have updated software and the Macbook has Parallels installed. I
ran repair in Keychain Access with no problems. I created another account and this did not help.
Thanks

bretj:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - repair disk permissions with Disk Utility.
2 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder..
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Unable to Edit songs due to copyright

Songs that have been put into my itunes went in all messed up...when I click get info to edit the songs, I'm either not able to change it, or I make the corrections but then when I hit OK, it doesn't make the changes...I called apple and they said its a copyright protection that won't allow me to edit. He said there is a 3rd party program that will allow me to convert the songs on the computer and then when I transfer them into itunes, I'll be able to edit...anyone know what this program is???
THANK YOU!

I called apple and they said its a copyright protection that won't allow me to edit.
Never heard that one before because it is not correct.
Either the songs are *Read Only* or you do not have full *Read/Write permissions* to the song file.

Unable to Edit Title/Album Song Info on Untitled Tracks

Hello, I'm having some difficulty with my iTunes. I have dozens of songs that I have imported from old CD's, but when I click Get Info, the Info section is grayed-out and will not let me edit the songs' names, CD, artist, etc.
I have tried using the Get Track Names. When I do, I get a pop-up stating: "CDDB info not available for some of these items." I have also made sure that my iTunes folder and the folders within have the Read-Only option unchecked. This is really getting on my nerves and would appreciate any advice for why I can't edit my songs.
Thanks

Take full control and ownership over the top-level itunes folder, and all its subfolders.

Then restart itunes so it will read the new permissions.
