When i change name of artist it automatically reverts it to original.

When I change the name of an artist, in my case, its the blow soundtrack. The artist is currently called sountrack, and i try and change it to blow. But when i double click it to listen to it, it plays but the name changes back to soundtrack. This has only ever happened with this album. Could it be right protected? The actual mp3 file was not, and i deselected the organise my itunes library to see if it made a difference but it didnt. any suggestions?? Thanks!

Hi Daniel,
sometimes mp3 files are slightly damaged; not to a point where they are completely corrupted but they might have "issues". In cases where I had trouble renaming a song I had always great success with the analyse and repair function of MP3Trimmer. It's a shareware but with quite usable free features.

I am trying to crop faces from old family group photos and paste them on to records in Family Tree Maker. When I do this, the pasted cropped image reverts to the original of the entire family. Is there a way of unlinking the original version from the crop

I am trying to crop faces from old family group photos and paste them on to records in Family Tree Maker. When I do this, the pasted cropped image reverts to the original of the entire family. Is there a way of unlinking the original version from the cropped image?

Are you copying the cropped images directly from Aperture's Browser window and then pasting into your family tree?
It would be safer to export the cropped faces as new image files to a folder on your disk, and then drag them from there to the "Family Tree" window.
To export select the cropped image versions in Aperture's browser and use the command "File > Export > Version". Select a suitable export preset from the pop-up menu, for example "Jpeg fit into ..." and select a folder to export to.

TS1468 When I change the album artist name it changes the order of songs, how do I stop this?

The songs downloaded to my iTunes on my Macbook Pro by CD have divided into different albums. Now I have put them into the same album by changing the Album Artist in File- Get Info but the song order changes; this is a problem as a lot of these albums are from Musical Theatre shows and the songs need to be in chronological order to make sense! Please tell me how I can put them into the same album and also keep them in the same order as on the CD.

For a full run down see Grouping tracks into albums. Generally to control the order of tracks within an album you need to use appropriate disc and track numbers. You may also need to change the sort column for the view.

How can I change the names of catagories that have been added to my music library? Is it possible to change names or artists or gendre and how to do it?

How do I change the names of artists or gendre in the itunes list after importing an album? Is it posssible to change that information?

Yes. Select one or more tracks (use ctrl or shift clicks to add/remove or extend a selection) then right-click or press CTRL-I to Get Info. Use the different tabs of the dialog to make changes.
For general advice on getting things neat & tidy see my article on Grouping tracks into albums.

What's lost when I change names, or hard reset?

My first question here:
I've used a Zire 21 for many years, and have some commercial software on it that required activation codes that were e-mailed upon payment. One is Piloc, a foreign language localization program, the other is SuperMemo, a flash card program for the same. I use them every day.
Now I've bought a Treo 680. That software isn't compatible with the Treo, so I'd like to keep the Zire going. But standard installation of the Treo software has the Treo using the old Zire user name. I'm sure I can't synch my Zire using that same name.
Reading manuals & online info, it looks like I can give my Zire a new user name by a hard reset (scary!), or by a hidden rename procedure involving the shortcut graffiti stroke, a dot, etc. If I understand it correctly, this will allow me to reinstall software and data (like flash card progress data).
But are my software activation codes likely to work? Supermemo in particular claimed it calculated my activation code using my user name. That sounds like it would prevent a reinstallation ... unless the software "knows" that it's been paid for, and allows me to reinstall even if the user name is different.
Does anyone know for sure how this will work? Will I be able to reinstall? Would a synchronization then re-load all my progress data on the flash cards? Should I try a rename (instead of a hard reset) in the hopes that less would be lost?
If there's a high likelihood of losing everything, I'd probably just keep charging the Zire and hope it never crashes!

Post relates to: Treo 680 (AT&T)

I did a hard reset of the Zire, then went through the digitizer calibration and time zone setting, then synched.
I get a window popping up that says:
"This Palm Powered [TM] handheld does not have a user account associated with it. Please creaste or select an existing user account to synch with handheld. What do you want to do?
[default radio button] Create a new user account named [blank box]
[alternate radio button] Select an existing user account [Choices in this box are Frank Krygowski Treo, and my wife's dead Zire named Peg Krygowski]
I assumed I was supposed to use Frank Krygowski Treo username. The hotsynch proceeded, and a very long Log file was generated. But the Zire now has no calendar data (the two handhelds previously had nearly equal calendars), no "to do" lists (which were identical and extensive), no ToDo lists (which were extensive) and so on. Also, the foreign language software (Piloc and a Polish-English dictionary) are either missing or not functioning.
What gives? If the backup files are an image of this Zire, I'm afraid I'm in trouble.
I _really_ don't want to lose the volumes of data (to-do lists, calendar, etc etc) that are now only on the Treo. Is there a chance I should change the Treo's username once more, then re-synch? Or did I goof in choosing the Treo's username? Should I redo the hard reset and re-synch the Zire with the original username, "Frank Krygowsk"

Any way to change names of artists more than one at a time?

I've got some AFI that shows up as A.F.I., and some AFI that shows up as AFI. There are a ton of songs with each spelling. Is there any way I can tell Itunes to convert A.F.I. to AFI?

Highlight all the ones you want to change. Right click - get info, then change the artist to what you want. Changes all of them
good luck

When I change my profile picture it automatically goes back to blank?

I logged into my macbook pro the other day and I noticed that my picture was blank (by blank I mean that silhouette icon that you have with new accounts). So i opened my addressbook and reset my picture.
A few minutes later, I noticed that my profile picture was reset to blank again so I changed it again and waited. Right before my eyes, the picture changed back to the silhouette again.
Any ideas?

Try changing it in your Account in System Preferences > User & Groups.

HT4623 I updated my operating system on the iPad and now when I try to enter iBooks it automatically reverts to the screen with all my apps. Also none of my books are on iBooks now.

I updated my iPad os and now my iBooks app automatically closes as soon as I enter and none of my books are on it.

Do a hard reset ie hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider).

Rotated photo automatically reverts back to original

I had a MBP that had some issues with burning a 8GB dual layer DVD. The Geniuses at the Apple store uploaded all my information to their server and then the downloaded it to my new MBP. However, I am using my brand new MBP and when I am viewing my photos in iPhoto 08 I noticed that previously rotated photos were no longer rotated in the right position. So I started to rotate them back. As soon as I click on a new photo, the previous one that I just rotated, rotates right back to the incorrect position.
When I export the photo to my desktop and re- import it, it works fine. This issue actually applies to every photo I have (even the ones facing the right way) so I do not want to export my whole library and then reimport it - also editing all the roll names. I have 10,000 photos and I can't afford to have a corrupted library.
I have also thrown out the plist files for iphoto 08 and restarted the program. I have run disk utility and there were no obvious issues. I have also rebuilt my entire iphoto library by holding down command option and opening iPhoto.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Well given that you have already tried rebuilding the library it does sound like your database has been damaged.
A next step might be Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back. This will not make anything worse as it leaves your old library untouched.
I have 10,000 photos and I can't afford to have a corrupted library.
You'll have a back up then? Why not restore?

What happens to Desktop Intelligence reports when a universe changes name?

Post Author: GregPye
CA Forum: Desktop Intelligence Reporting
Hi
We are experiencing intermittent issues with our DeskI reports that are pointing to a universe that subsequently changes its name.
We seem to have some reports that cope with the name change perfectly well, and other reports that "cannot find universe" because it is looking for the new name.
The issue with the latter, is that if DeskI cannot find the universe, it will then not allow you to repoint the universe in the View Data pane. When such reports are found, our workaround has had to be:
1) copy universe and rename with old universe name
2) open report and repoint to newly named universe name
3) delete old universe name
Should all reports automatically update when the universe simply changes their name? Why do some reports not do this? Is there something we can do to alleviate the situation?
Many thanks
GP

IPhone 4S (IOS 7.0.2) is changing (or skipping parts) songs automatically when I unlock the device.

My iPhone 4S (IOS 7.0.2) is changing (or skiping parts) songs automatically when I unlock the device, since the update to 7.0.2.
The song is playing on background, so when I need to access something, I go and type my password, and the song goes backwards, or it completely changes songs / artists. Sometimes it just stops for less than a second, and starts playing again, normally.
What's happening?

I experienced such behavior few times (also on 4S). It's especially annoying when you listen audiobooks. I think it's a bug, and at this moment there's no remedy for it - at least I haven't found it.

Why didn't my iCloud account name change when I changed my Apple ID?

Why didn't my iCloud account name change when I changed my Apple ID (because I got a new email address)?

It doesn't change on your device automatically. To change the iCloud ID on an iOS device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
To change the ID on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.
