Can anyone help me withis. When I right click on a song from my library and I click on Obtain information, I can't make changes on the infos, Everything is written in pale letters.  Thank you.

Short answer:
Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
Long answer:
iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

  • HT201272 I have deleted a song from my library and want to re-download it.  When I access my purchased items in the iTunes store, the song has the 'purchased' button next to it and won't let me re-download. Any suggestions for things to try?

    While you can redownload most past purchases without charge, you can't redownload movies without paying again.  See Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

    If a small number of your iTunes purchases are affected, delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country. If you get that message for every item, click here and follow the instructions.

  • Deleting a song from iTunes library and hard drive on Itunes 11.0

    how do i delete a song from iTunes library and hard drive on Itunes 11.0 at the same time.

    Hello CleveCo, Inc
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    At some point in time, you may have selected the option to prevent that dialog from appearing again when trying to delete tracks from your library. To reset all of iTunes warning dialogs, click the Edit drop down menu and choose Preferences from the list (on a Mac it is *iTunes -> Preferences* ). When the window pops up, head over to the Advanced tab and click the *Reset Warnings* button. Then quit iTunes and relaunch it. That do the trick for you?

  • I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

    By default iWeb keeps its data in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb in a file named Domain. Without this file you cannot proceed (other than by recreating the site from scratch using the published version as a reference) so you need to locate it on the original disk.
    To confuse matters, Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and Mountain Lion to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice.

    i use windows and i got my hard disk replaced now when i try to sync wirelessly my ipod detects my computed as being a different one how can i make it forget the old one?

    You will have to sync it to the new one, erasing the current content from the ipod and replacing it with the content from the new drive.
    Make sure you have copied everything from your backup copy of your computer back to the new drive first.

  • How do I click multiple songs from my library and add them all at once to a playlist?

    Before I upgraded I could simply hold 'command' and select multible songs from my library, then drag and drop into my playlist.  This was simple and sensible (which is why I made the switch from pc to mac).  Now, as near as I can tell, I can only click on the song then hover over it and redirect it to the playlist ONE AT A TIME.  This is obviously horribly inefficient.  Can anyone help...please!?

    I just tested this on my itunes 11 on a macbook pro.  I have no problems doing multiple clicks using command.  Perhaps you might try rebooting.

    The formats YouTube supports can be found here:
    http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?answer=55744
    Since YouTube supports AAC, the file format iTunes uses by default, it's probable you don't need any sort of converter.
    If you continue to have problems with uploading to YouTube, I'd suggest you ask for assistance in their forums:

  • Deleting songs from itunes Library and syncing

    I have loaded up my nano with most of my personal cd's and some purchased songs. I'd like to delete most of the songs off of the itunes library (sorta seems like double kill since they are on my nano and computer)...I really only need them in one spot and I could use the space on my computer. My question is when I do another CD or a purchased song and re-synch my ipod nano, will I lose everything that I have put on my nano and just get the new songs? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    And I will second that. Storing music on your iPod and nowhere else is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
    At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this about backing up media.

  • Delete songs from playlist, library and off the hard drive at the same time

    I have playlists full of captured radio streams that I keep briefly for discovering new music. But periodically I want to clean them out. I know I can delete the files from the playlist, then go in and delete the song from the main library, and the authorize iTunes to go ahead and move those songs to the trash. But since these songs are nice and efficiently grouped by playlist, I want to have the option to delete the songs from the playlist and at the same time remove them from the main library and move the actual files to the trash. Any way to do this?
    I know the idea is to keep you from accidentally deleting your original song files just because you want to take them out of a playlist, but I want the option to get rid of them all together.

    Answered: Select the song in the playlist, hit command-option delete, and you'll get a dialog box with the option of leaving the song in the main library or moving it to the trash.

    Thank you for responding. So I essentially will never be able to use that button in lightroom 5? do I need to get LR 6? Will there ever be an update for LR 5 that will enable me to use it?
    Does DNG Converter work within LR or do I have to upload pictures to my computer and then make a second copy in DNG format. and then go into LR and use them?
    Thank you @dj_paige

  • I use mymsn page and when upgrading to Firefox 4 the changes went away and I can not make changes to the stocks area or see my emails. How do I fix that?

    Mymsn has areas that allow you to list your stocks and also an area that allows you to see what emails you have waiting to be read. Both of these areas went away when I upgraded to Firefox 4 last week. When clicking on the menu area to make changes, nothing happens. How do I get back the information that was in these areas? Also the customize button does not work.

    Do you have Adblock Plus installed? If you do, disable on the page where you normally see your stock info. I've uploaded an image of what happens on another site where ABP is enabled. The Global News image disappears with ABP enabled even though it's not an ad.
    If that doesn't work, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it works correctly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

  • I'm trying to print from Acrobat to my printer, but I can't make changes to the document size or anything!

    I'm trying to print a set of plans onto 11x17 paper but I can't find anywhere to make formatting changes.  Can anyone help?

    Hi Paul,
    What version of Acrobat and you using, and are you on Mac OS or Windows?
    What do you see in the Print dialog box? If you select Size under Page Size & Handling, the PDF should print at the same size as the page size in Acrobat (if your printer supports that page size).
    You can also click Printer at the bottom of the Print dialog box to override Acrobat's print settings, and use the settings specific to your printer driver.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Hello, I bought a song on iTunes that has a music video to it, but I don't want the song to play the music video. How can I make it so the music video isn't played?

    Hello, I bought a song on iTunes that has a music video to it, but I don't want the song to play the music video. How can I make it so the music video isn't played?

    Hello, iBillyxD. 
    Thank you for the question.  The best way to avoid this behavior would be to delete the music video from your library.  You can always download it again free by accessing your previous purchases.  To delete and item in your iTunes library, select the item and hit delete on your keyboard.
