What happened to "ping" in iTunes? I do not see it listed like I did before.

I looked for "ping" in iTunes recently, but it's nowhere to be found. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or where it went?

Ping was not getting much use, and press reports are that it is being quietly retired. See this article:

What happened to the indexing of addresses. It no longer works like it did before

I have for years been able to add addresses to emails by typing usually the first letter of the name. Since the last update I have to type sometimes 3 letters of the name to get the right address to show up. I thought it would improve with use but it hasn't change. Please go back to the old indexing or what ever you had before. If I want Dave, I have to type dav or it brings up Sandy.. Go figure
Thanks

Thanks razmee209,
My Bad, upon further perusal, and putting my glasses on, I too found it again. Sorry for the false alarm.

What happens after download complete? I'm not seeing a program, an icon or any next steps...

What are the next steps to open the trial software after the Download Assistant has been installed? No instructions for next steps!

Biggly2000 what happens if you initiate the download again? You are directed to choose the download location at the time of download. If you have chosen a different location such as an Application folder or Program Files then the installation files will not be in your downloads folder.
I would recommend reviewing Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant for several common errors which occur when using the Adobe Download Assistant.

If you downloaded the correct version for your iPad model (and the different models have different ipsw files), then you should be able to navigate to it in iTunes by pressing and holding the shift key on Windows (command key on Mac) when clicking the Check For Updates button.

What happens to my apps, iTunes card, and iCloud storage if I change my Apple ID?

What happens to my apps, iTunes card, and iCloud storage if I change my Apple ID?

Depends upon what you mean by change.
If you update your existing account to have a new primary email address then you shouldn't lose any of the account's past purchases, balance, or iCloud storage - you may have to log out of the old version of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version, and similarly for iCloud (Settings > iCloud > Sign Out).
If you create a new account then your existing account's purchases, balance and iCloud storage will remain tied to the existing account, you can't transfer them to a new account or merge the new account with the old one.

In my Itunes account, I can not see my list of songs in my files, nor can I look for individual songs in the Itunes store. Basically, anywhere there are list, I can not see them. What can I do to fix this problem?

I am having trouble with my Itunes account on Windows XP . I can not see any list in my music files. The songs are there but I have to click on each song to see what it is. Also, in the itunes store, I can not see any pull down list or use my search bar. This happened when Itunes updated it's look. I can pull it up on my phone and see all of my purchased music. I would really appreciate knowing how to fix this problem. Thank you.

Nevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro. If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook. Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad. Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.

I do not know what happened, all of a sudden Firefox does not want to work anymore. Had been conected to audible. Retried about 4 times.... no luck had to force

I do not know what happened, all of a sudden Firefox does not want to work anymore. Had been conected to audible. Retried about 4 times.... no luck had to force quit every time. The three Firefox app. into garbage, emptied garbage and redownloaded new version from Firefox. Reinstalled but same thing happened again... no connection.
What can I do, I like Firefox better than Safari, had it for years on my Mac.
Please let me know.
(Note: I have also mentioned this on the automatic response to the malfunctioning).

Hey.
I think it might be the problem with one of your plugins.
Try to uninstall the webbrowser AND remove the storage from Firefox in your user-account (Linux: /home/username/.mozilla). You can check the list of installed Add-Ons in Firefox under "Extras => Add-ons" or by pressing Shift + Strg + A (Linux).

What happens to battery life if alarm is not shut down?

If the ipod alarm is set and you don't notice it, what happens to the ipod? Will alarm be quiet after a few minutes? Will alarm not stop?
what happens to battery life if alarm is not turned off?

Not odd...On Verizon if it is not set up, you will hear a recording that says "Im sorry, but the party you are trying to reach has a vm box that has not been set up yet". It will show as missed if the phone is on, and will appear in the log if the phone is on. If the phone is powered off, the call does not show in the log when turned back on. It will appear as if it never happened. You will only know if you get a VM (if its set up) or if the person tells you, hey I called you!

TS1717 I plug in my Ipod but it doesn't come up in Itunes like it did before. Can anyone help? Thanks

I plug in my Ipod but it doesn't come up in Itunes like it did before. It always came up under Genres, etc. I don't know what to do. There is an Icon on the top Right of the screen and when I click on it the information on my Ipod comes up. I can't do anything w/it after that. I would appreciate any help at all. Thanks to any and all.

Make iTunes 11 look and function more like iTunes 10:
From the upper left corner, choose “Show Menu bar”
From the “View” menu, choose, “Show Sidebar”
Now your iPod device shows up as is did before.

I have an iTunes account where I have downloaded Digital movies & I am able to see the list on the desktop of the original downloads. When I log on another device with my login I do not see my list to access them. Why can't I access from another device

Hey GingCarv,
Great question. You'll want to download the movies from your purchase history. The following article explains how to do so:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Note: At this time, movies are not available for automatic downloads.
Thanks,

Had problem with laptop so reinstalled it now itunes will not sync on both laptops, it did before.

Had problem with laptop so reinstalled it now itunes will not sync on both laptops, it did before to my iphone5 says cannot sync to 2 libraries until I reinstalled it did.

iDevices can only be synched with one library. However, you can sync successfully with more than one computer if each has a copy of the same logical library - the identifier that iTunes uses to determine which library is synced an iDevice is recorded within the iTunes database (the iTunes Library.itl file). The best approach is to replicate your complete library (database, media, artwork, associated files) from one PC to the other. When you reinstalled iTunes on your laptop it will, by default, have created a new library with a distinct id from that of your other machine. Even if you copied all your media from one to the other, iTunes will still see the libraries as distinct with respect to syncing iDevices.
If you have configured iTunes to organize your media and to copy files to the iTunes Media folder, then the complete library will be contained within (by default) C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes, with a structure of subfolders and key files like this:
If this is the case, you can (with iTunes not running on either machine):
Copy this iTunes folder from laptop 2 to laptop 1 (the one that's had iTunes reinstalled) - depending on the size of your library you can do this over a network, using a thumb drive, or an external (USB) hard driveNote this this assumes no media on laptop 1 that's not also on laptop 2 - if this isn't the case, there's a slightly different process to follow to ensure that this media is preserved and can be added to the "common" library
Once the copy is complete, make sure that iTunes is using the correct library database by holding down SHIFT as you start iTunes. When you see this prompt:
select Choose Library..., navigate to the iTunes folder you just copied, select the iTunes Library.itl file you'll find there, and click Open.
For future reference, you can use turingtest2's user tip on Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy for a suitable method to backup your library to an external drive - you can then, with care, use this to keep the copies of your common library in sync across your laptops.

The new itunes is slow and I can not see my musics anymore. How can I have my musics listed like they were before?

The new itunes is slow and I can not see my musics anymore. How can I have my musics listed like they were before?

I have the same problem with new 11.0. Presentation of album data now seems scrambled in 'Album' screen. Instead of albums in alphabetical order with all album tracks I now get albums in the order of the Album Artist. Unless the album artist is EXACTLY the same, the tracks on any one album can be spread all over the screen (hopeless for compilations). Does anbody know how to get the Album screen to sort solely on the Album title?

What happens after unchecking 'Keep iTunes Music folder organized'?

After unchecking the 'Keep iTunes Music folder organized' option, am I right in thinking that future additions to the library are simply linked from their default location? If so, what happens when ripping CDs, and how is it possible to rename or move files/folders without iTunes failing to find them and having to add them again?

It's more what doesn't happen rather than what does. If you like to organise your own folders in your Music folder you must leave it unchecked, as checking it gives iTunes the authority to rename and move tracks at will.
If you rip a CD with iTunes and the iTunes Music folder according the tabs recovered from Grace note. The hierarchy is Artist\album.
This is not affected by Keep iTunes Music folder organised.
If you add tracks already on your PC, depending on the setting of "Copy to iTunes Music folder when adding to library, iTunes will either store a link to the track in its current location or copy it into the iTunes Music folder according to the tags.
It is not possible to move or rename any track in your library or iTunes will lose it. There is no folder watch feature.
So you need to place and name a file BEFORE adding it to the library if you want to manage your own folders. Once added you can't change it without having to either add it again or find it manually in iTunes.
The only thing you can do is to use iTunes to move the whole iTunes Music folder to a new location.
