Unable to edit info

Just got a new HP laptop computer running Windows Vista. Since installing iTunes on this new computer I have been unable to edit the info for any of my pre-existing files; the only files I can edit are new ones I have addded since upgrading to my new computer. Have just upgraded iTunes to latest 7.0.2.16 version hoping that would resolve the problem, but it has not. Any ideas on what the problem is?

It's most likely your Vista permissions.

Unable to edit info in itunes????

Hi,
I have recently got a new PC, and I am having problems with itunes.
Here is the details:
The hard drive which contains itunes music folder has been put into the new PC has a secondary drive.
I added folder within itunes and all my music is now there.
I am now unable to edit any of the information within itunes.
I right click on a track and select get info, and where I used to be able to edit artist name, track name etc is now just greyed out and I am unable to edit.
Can anyone please help with this
Cheers
Steve

The solution may be as simple as making sure the files have not become read-only during the xfer to the other drive. It happens sometimes when files go from DVD to hard drive or hard drive to network drive. Right-click a file, choose Properties, and remove any checkmark next to "Read-only." You can remove the checkmark from multiple files by selecting them all first, then right-clicking, choosing Properties, and clearing the "Read-only" box.

Unable to edit information

I just purchased a notebook with Vista 64bit. I have found that I am unable to edit info with Vista but am able to with XP on my desktop. I have not found any threads that helped. If anyone knows of a solution short of not using Vista I would appreciate the feedback.

I finally found the answer in a thread posted in January. Thanks goes out to Katrina S. Here is her reply.
Vista permissions are wonky; checking read-only might not be enough.
*Make sure you have FULL control and OWNERSHIP of those files.*

Unable to edit track info in iTunes on a Mac Air

Hello,
I recently switched from a windows PC to a Mac Air. All my music was organizaed on an external hard drive. I have now imported the music in to my iTunes on my Mac Air. I am unable to edit individual track info when I use "Get Info". I tried to look up for permissions on the particular folder and found that they are all set as "Read Only".
Any help in this matter is appreciated.

Go to your Music (media) folder. The one that holds the actual files.
Click it and press Cmd+I or right click and select "Get Info"
In the Info pane, click the lock to change permissions:
You'll need to tnter your password to make any chnages.
Set ALL permissions to Read & Write
Click the Gear and select "Apply to enclosed items..."
Then click "OK" when asked if you're sure.
Let it apply to everything and THEN try editing the track oinfo.

ITunes - cannot edit info

I am unable to make any changes in iTunes. Usually a slow double-click allows me to change Title, Artist, Genre, etc. When I right-click and select get info, the fields are all unavailable.
Is there something I can do?

I just upgraded to windows vista and iTunes 8.0 and had the same problem with all my songs that were originally windows media player songs, all in a separate folder from iTunes. I had iTunes import them all into its library, went to get info to edit and could not. Every field was grayed out. I went to my top level separate folder, clicked properties, clicked the security tab, and clicked 'Advanced". Selected the "permission entry" that matched my computer name (i.e. User (***\User) that had permission set to 'read & execute'. Then clicked 'Edit'. After the stupid vista continue dialog box, I selected the same entry again and clicked 'Edit'. Under 'Allow' in the list of permissions I checked the 'Full Control' box. Then OK, Apply, OK, etc...
Went into iTunes, I can now edit info on all my songs. Please let me know if this helps.

Captivate 4-Unable to Edit or Save a Project

Hi,
I am creating a CBT using Captivate 4. There are two slides so far and the size of the project is 1,901 kb. One slide in the project has six click boxes with multiple actions and has five animations included in it which are hidden until the user clicks a click box. The concept works wonderfully, however, I am now unable to edit or save the project. I cannot finish it at this point. Captivate will not allow me to add any additional buttons, click boxes, highlight boxes, new slides and so on. It also will not allow me to delete any unused items from the library, or save the edits I made up to that point.
I have tried the following, closing the project, closing Captivate and restarting my computer. I have also imported the slides into a new project with the same outcome. I have copied and pasted the slides into a new project with the same outcome. I have also tried to do a save as and it will not allow that either. There are no error messages. The project is not save on the network, it is on my C:Drive. I have had to restart the project several times and has this happened with each project. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Wendy

click on the folder containing all these documents and do the following:
Right click on the folder, then select "Get Info"
Click the lock at the bottom to give yourself access to the permissions settings for this folder. A dialog will appear so you can enter your login name and password:
Now select your user name at the bottom (mine is wayne), set the read write permissions to "Read & Write" using the pop-up menu, then click the sprocket at the very bottom of the window and select "Apply to enclosed items..." from the pop-up menu. The click the lock again.
Now try to open your Numbers documents

Garageband 10- "system overload, audio driver unable to process info in time"

I have a project with 3 tracks, drums (via the new drummer feature), guitar (recorded with rocksmith cable), and vocal track (recorded with the standard built in mic). I put it on ITunes and can listen to it fine on there but I want to edit it more. I didn't have any issues with playback until yesterday when I got the "disk to slow or system overload" message. I got that to go away by saving the project in a different folder. Now today I'm getting the "system overload, audio driver unable to process info in time" error. I've heard RAM is the problem and that I should increase my RAM? I brought up the activity monitor app but it doesn't say anything about how to increase my RAM, can you help me out? Activity monitor reads as follows...
Physical mem- 4.00 GB
Memory Used- 3.98 GB
Virtual Memory- 10.01 GB
Swap Used- 1.33 GB
App Memory- 1.08 GB
File Cache- 224.5 MB
Wired Memory- 1.12 GB
Compressed- 1.56 GB

It may be a problem of not enough RAM, yes. 4GB is not much. It will help, if you close all other apps, before recording, also restarting the Mac will help, if you are using any incompatible, older applications, that may have a memory leak.
If your Mac can support more memory, try to upgrade the RAM: Which model of Mac do you have, and which MacOS X version?
In Yosemite you can see how to upgrade the RAM, if you open the  menu in the upper left corner of the screen. Select "About this Mac", then click the "Memory" tab in the panel: It will show you the memory slots and if you can extend it. There is also a link to "Memory Upgrade Instructions".

Unable to edit the tracks number

Having updated iTunes 12.01 with Yosemite 10.10.2 I'm unable to edit the tracks number, as I used to do, select a song then get info and edit whatever I want, everything looks fine except the possibility to edit the track number. Any thought?

You can still edit the track number ... it just involves a scrolling action with the new iTunes.
Go to the song's "Get Info" as you used to do. Once you open the "Details" tab, scroll down to reveal the track number which you can edit.

Unable to edit header regions of template

I have just recently taken over the whole editing etc, publishiing , admin of some websties. i have purchased contribute CS5. I was previously using Contrbute 4, which allowed me to edit the whole of the pages'header, body etc..' however, whereas the consultant adminsitrator allowed me to edit the header regions, I now do not seem to be able to do this in CS5. Is it because the administrator has done something to stop me or am I missing some vital bit of info. I can edit the content. The old administrator is acting as if I never could do this and says I need to use Dreamweaver, which I dont have and didnt need it before, I have open the index page in dreamweaver and I still find that I am unable to edit the header and it appears to be try to access an included file, it is trying to access Templates/base.dwt trouble is this does not exist among the files, any idea's why this might be so or is there some trick to editing the headers now that I am missing, cheers in addvance
dustin

Hi Dustin,
You can edit the existing template in the Dreamweaver as for you requirement, by creating connection to that site in Dreamweaver.
While saving the template, Dreamweaver will prompt you, asking for updating the pages using this template. You can update all the pages using that template. So then changes you did in the template will be reflected in those pages.
For example, if you place the Header part in Editable region and save the changes and update in all the pages, then when you edit those pages, the header part will be editable.
Hope this helps you.

Unable to edit the forms in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and adobe pdf reader.

Hai ,
i am unable to edit pdf forms . on clicking on the form text field error message comes as "font capture" message heading and content as
"C:\Windows\system32/ATMLIB.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support."
if pressed ok . aplication get closed
i reinstalled all aplication with old versions but sill have the same error .please give a solution . thank you.

thank you for the suggestion, but I do not have a "Send Email" or "Submit" button available in my version. I have "Attach to email" option which automatically opens a new message in MS outlook (which I did not set up, it just started doing so automatically) without any further dialogue boxes or options.
Also, this is only for regular PDF files, not forms.

I am unable to edit an image in Photoshop.

I just installed Lightroom 5.3, and I have Photoshop CS5.1 installed. The problem is that I am unable to edit an image in Photoshop. When I click Photo>Edit In, the option for Photoshop is not active (i.e., it's not black), so I can't click on it. Why are the options for Photoshop and all of the other Photoshop related options, such as Merge to Panorama, etc., not active? In Preferences I have the following settings: File Format = TIFF; Color Space = ProPhotoRGB; Bit Depth = 16 bits; Resolution = 240; Compression = None. I am using Windows 7.

Chris:
I have to apologize for being misleading on my request for help in
resolving the problem.
Actually the version I am using is CS2 not CS3.
Yesterday I tried numerous times, and ways, to edit an image and each time
it refused to allow me to save it.
The software program just shut down. This evening when I decided to give it
another try it worked perfect.
Guess the program just took the day off.
Thank you for offering to help
Regards,
Doug

Function Module "RSDRD_SEL_DELETION" / Unable to edit selection

Dear experts,
I am currently working on FM "RSDRD_SEL_DELETION". I am testing it in SE37.
However, when I try to enter selection I_THX_SEL, it tells me:
Unable to edit the object
Message no. MO704
Diagnosis
You tried to edit an object that cannot currently be edited using the editor for complex objects. Possible causes:
The object is an object reference
The object is a hashed table
The object list a string
The object has the type REF TO DATA
The object contains object references
The object contains hashed tables
The object is a string
The object contains strings
A subcomponent of the object has a width that exceeds 65,000 characters.
Can anyone tell me how to make it work?

Sorry! The code was meant only as example, as I would convert it. The names of the infoObjects are naturally differently. It concerns to me rather the understanding whether the data records are deleted individually in each case. Or all those the conditions of <b>NUMBER</b> fulfill and all those the conditions of <b>DATE</b> fulfill. I would like to delete however only the data records, which fulfill these conditions together.

WebElements - Unable to edit WEPlatform

Hi,
I am new to WebElements and wanted to have a look at the functions to see how I can use in my reporting suite.
I am using CR11 and seem to be unable to edit the WEPlatform element to select the Crystal Reports version that I use.
I notice when I open the WebElements 246.rpt that it advises me that the report was written in a later version of Crystal.
Is this why I cannot edit the WEPlatform element ? If so how can I obtain a version of the web elements thjat will work with my Crystal version ?
Any help will be great.
Cheers,
Matt

hi Matt,
the users guide isn't really clear on this...i will make sure that this gets changed for the next release.
as webelements are Custom Functions you have to disconnect them from your repository to edit them. if you right click on the platform function and choose disconnect from repository then you can edit the function to match your platform.
once you've changed the function, you can add it back into your repository overwriting the existing one...that way when you build a new report using webelements you don't have to keep changing the platform function each time.

User unable to edit contacts

I have a user with Outlook 2013 connected to an 2010 Exchange Server. I have a user that is unable to edit any existing contact, getting an error: Your changes cannot be saved because you don't have permission to modify some or all of the items in this folder.
Do you want to save a copy of this item in the default folder for the item?
I have checked the permissions on the mailbox folder as well as the Contacts folder. The user has "Owner" permission to these folders.
No other users report the problem, and loading the users account on another computer demonstrates the same problem.
Any ideas what I am missing?

Hi,
The error indicates that the issue is related to permission. I recommend you use the Get-MailboxPermission -Identity xxx |fl cmdlet to check if the permission is right. What's more, please check if OWA has the same issue.
If the issue persists, I recommend you remove the owner permission at first. Secondly, use the following cmdlet to add the owner permission and check the result.
Add-MailboxPermission -Identity "xxx" -Owner "xxx"
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
Amy
