Why are system and application sound files appearing in itunes?

Suddenly, over 900 system and application sound files, each about a second or 2 long, have appeared in my iPhone 4S music player. They've also appeared in my iTunes on my desktop iMac. Not sure whether they appeared on the computer first or on the phone first. I can't figure out why they appeared there or how to get rid of them (without also removing them from the system and applications which, of course, I don't want to do).
I searched through the discussions here and found several other people complaining about the same thing, going back a couple of years, but no solutions offered. I hope someone can offer a clue.

Thanks for the suggestions and help. While the cause of this problem is still obscure, we've managed, with an Apple tech's help, to remove the system/application sound files from both the iPhone and iTunes. We used Time Machine to backtrack to the point at which the sound files first appeared in the iTunes folder, then moved back one more day and restored the iTunes Media folder (where all the music was stored) and 2 iTunes files: iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml (we could also have simply restored the entire iTunes folder with the same effect). Then we synced the iPhone.
As for the cause, that's still a puzzle. From Time Machine, we were able to determine that the files were added between midnight and 12:47 AM on a particular day, but that computer was not in use at that time (the user was asleep in bed, and the only other person in the house at the time was me -- and I don't touch that computer).

  • Why are Java and Video Player updates appearing in Safari

    Today these fake Java and Video Player update pop ups started appearing in Safari 6.2.4, in OS 10.8.5.  The Java updates say I need  version 13 which doesn't exist and the video player pop ups are gray with a red square that resemble the Adobe colors.  These are popping up on almost every page I load in Safari.
    I've looked in the Launch Daemons folder and that other Launch folder that keeps being recommended in the post that says I don't need to download anything and there is nothing out of the ordinary there.  How do I stop these pop ups?

    The update alerts are indeed fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
    You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
    If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they may be the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked.
    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. If the fake update alerts stop, see below. Otherwise, ask for instructions.
    The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
    After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
    Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
    1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
    2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
    3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
    During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
    Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
    If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions.

  • Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

    Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
    Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
    - a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
    - other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
    I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
    I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
    This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

    Greetings NoNameGiven,
    If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

  • Why are albums that have various artists appearing as separate albums for each track?

    why are albums that have various artists appearing as separate albums for each track?

    Check the tags via the info panel on each system.
    You may see that one version has settings for 'Disk x of y' disks.
    There are other fields that should be compared too, like 'grouping'. You also need to be certain the playlist (or the Library) are sorted by the same criteria e.g. by 'album' is different to 'album by artist' etc. That can cause unexpected differences in the way it displays.
    I suspect match has given you iTunes copies of the files with Apple's own metadata whilst your originals are from CD with your custom tags.

  • HT201365 Why are only 3 of my devices appearing on the map when all of the devices were showing up 2 weeks ago.

    Why are only 3 of my devices  appearing on the map when all of the devices were showing up 2 weeks ago.

    I probably "over-read" the Apple website hype about the advantages of creating a single personal Apple I.D. which would apply to practically all things Apple.  To quote:  "An Apple ID lets you personalize your Apple experience. Once you've created an Apple ID, you'll use it to access Apple resources where it's helpful to identify yourself. From Apple Discussions to iTunes to the Apple Online Store and everything in between, Apple ID is your passport to the extended Apple experience."
    Hence, I created an "Apple ID," following the example "[email protected]"  (Who wants to miss out on a "passport to the extended Apple experience.")  However, I already had an ID (though it was not my Apple address), and apparently was already the benefactor of the benefits of the so-called "personal Apple ID."  Consequently, I now have two different iTunes IDs and two different passwords.  Apple has responded to my requests to have a single ID by saying that my request is for the impossible.  I simply have to remember both IDs and both passwords, entering both when attempting to use different computers and devices while downloading and taking inventory of my iTunes files.
    So I'm pretty sure I've followed your suggestions already with respect to all 3 "eligible" devices, but I'll certainly give it another go-round.  From what you say, it appears that being "associated" with the cloud should not limit me only to an iPod Touch 4th generation.

  • MVC model in Web systems and applications

    MVC model in Web systems and applications
    Object-oriented design model is experience, MVC idea is a user interface for the original. This article discusses how the major application areas in the new Web design patterns and the use of MVC framework. The article first introduced the concept of design patterns and characteristics, and MVC architecture design concepts and analysis of the MVC framework contains several key models. Based on the characteristics of Web applications on how to use patterns and MVC framework made some design ideas.??
    1. Introduction
    1.1 design model
    Object-oriented technology and the emergence of software applications has greatly enhanced the trusted and software quality. Object-oriented programming than previous models to various programming simple and efficient, but the object-oriented design methodology than the previous design methods to complex and much more skill, a good design should be both on the issue of gender, but also to take full account of the problems and needs sufficient interoperability. In the past 10 years, people in the object-oriented technology and the practical application of research to explore certain issues in relation to the creation of a number of good solutions, the so-called object-oriented design patterns. Object-oriented technology is one of the purposes of enhancing the software trusted, and to design model, design programmes in important positions from a deeper sense of meaning and essence embodies trusted. There are many people in the design model definition, which cited Christopher Alexander is the largest design model definition : Each design model is a tripartite rule, which expresses a contextual environment (Context), a problem and a solution. Design models generally following basic elements : model name, the purpose solution effect 1995-1998 code and related design models. There are several classifications design patterns can be divided into a model based on the purpose (Creational), structural type (Structural) and the type of behaviour (Behavioral) three. It is mainly used in the creation of a model-based object model-based structure to deal primarily with the category or combination of objects, used to describe behavior-based model is the main target for the category or how stress and how to allocate responsibilities. Design patterns can be divided into categories based on the scope and target mode model type model dealing with the relationship between the categories and sub-categories, these relations through the establishment of succession in Translation moment to be finalized, are static. Model is targeted at addressing the relationship between the moment of change these relations in the operation, more dynamic. Model features : through the experience acquired in a structured format to write down, avoid encountering the same problems on the first design, exist in different abstract level, in continuous improvement, can be trusted artificial product for the design and best practice in the world to be combined to address larger issues.
    1.2 MVC framework
    MVC was first used in a user interface Smalltalk-80 China. M representative models Model, representatives maps View V, C representatives controller Controller. MVC trusted code with the aim of increasing the rate of data reduction expressed, the data describing the operation and application coupled degrees. Also makes software Keweihuxing, restorative, expansionary, flexibility and packaging of greatly enhanced. Single-user applications are usually incident-driven user interface to the organizational structure. Staff development tool with an interface painting of a user interface interface code based on user input and then prepare to implement the corresponding moves, many interactive development environment encouraged to do so, because it emphasizes first and then a functional interface. Some software design model is the strategy that will be fixed before the code into the regular system of the final. Result is that the procedures and organizations around the user interface elements in the user interface elements of those moves, data storage, applications and functions of the code is used to indicate the way intertwined. In single-user system code structure can be so, because the system will not demand frequent changes. But for a large system such as large Web systems, or e-commerce systems to be applied. Model by incorporating data from a variety of access and control data can be separated to improve distributed system design. MVC design pattern is composed of three parts. Model is the application object, no user interface. Type in the screen showing that it represents the flow of data users. Controller user interface definition response to user input, the users responsible for the action against the Model into operation. Model View data updated to reflect the adoption of data changes.
    2. MVC design pattern,
    An MVC framework for the design of the system includes many models, but with MVC is most closely related to the following three models : Observer, Cambridge and Strategy.
    2.1 Observer models
    MVC through the use of purchase / notification form and the separation of the Model View. View to ensure that their content accurately reflected Model and state. Once Model content changes, there must be a mechanism to allow notification to the relevant Model View, View can be made relevant at the appropriate time updating of data. This design is also more general problems can be solved, the target separation, making a change to the target audience affect others, which targets those who do not know the details of the object being affected. This is described as Observer in the design model. Model type : Observer model is the object-oriented model, it is behaviour-based model. Model purposes : definition of hierarchical dependence relations between objects, or when a target value of the state change, all its dependent relationship with the object are notified and automatically updated. There are a variety of data may show a way, in different ways and may also show. When a way through a changed data, then the other should be able to show immediately that the data change and do accordingly.
    Effect :
    1. Abstract coupling. I only know that it has a target audience of some observers, the observers met each abstract Observer category simple interface, does not know their specific affiliation categories. This makes the coupling between goals and observers smallest and abstract.
    2. Support radio communications. Needless to notify designated observers goals, how to deal with the observer informed decisions.
    3. Possible accidents updated. We update logic, avoiding mistakes updated.
    2.2 Faculty model
    MVC is an important feature of View can nest. Nest can be used for any type of combination of local maps available, but also management of type nest. This thinking reflects the type and mix of components will be equal treatment design. This object-oriented design ideas in the area of Cambridge has been described as a design model. Model types : Cambridge model is the object-oriented model, it is also the structure type model. Model purpose : to target portfolio into tree structures to express "part-whole" level structure. Prepared for the use and combination of individual target audiences with the use of consistency.
    Effect :
    1. Definition of a target portfolio includes simple objects and the structure of the category level. Simple objects may be complex combinations of objects, and can be targeted portfolio mix. This customer-code used in the target areas can use simple combinations target.
    2. Simplify customer-code. Needless to know their customers - a mix of target audiences is a simple target or can use these items in a consistent manner.
    3. Easier to add new types of components. New components can easily be changed to a combination of customer-targeted codes.
    2.3 Strategy model
    Another important characteristic is the MVC can not change the View of changes View response to user input. This often requires a change in response to the logic of the system is very important. MVC to respond to the logic involved in the Controller. Controller of a category level structure could easily change to the original Controller appropriate, a new Controller. View Controller son used to achieve a specific example of such a response strategy. To achieve different response strategy, as long as examples of the use of different types of replacement will Controller. Also in the running time by changing the View Controller for users to change View of response strategies. This View-Controller relationship was described as an example of Strategy design pattern. Model types : Strategy model is the object-oriented model, it is behaviour-based model. Model purposes : definition of a series of algorithms, and their packaging, and ensure that they can replace each other, making algorithms can independently use its customer-change.
    Effect :
    1. Strategy category levels for Context definition of the relevant algorithms can be trusted or behaviour.
    2. Alternative methods of succession. If the direct successor Context, with different acts will be added Context act, the realization of which would algorithm mixed up with Context, Context hard to preserve and expand, but can not dynamically changing algorithms. Will be enclosed in a separate Strategy category algorithms to enable algorithm independent Context change easily cut over expansion.
    3. Can provide the same acts different date.
    4. Strategy-must understand what customers between different.
    5. Context and Strategy communications between costs.
    6. An increase in the number of targets.
    3. MVC in Web application system
    Now some of the distributed systems such as Web-based B2B e-commerce system, suitable for use MVC framework. Through analysis from the perspective of high-level applications can be a target divided into three categories. Category is shown for the target audience consists of a group of commercial rules and data, there is a category that is receiving requests to control commercial target to complete the request. These applications often need to change is shown, such as web style, color, but also need to demonstrate the contents of the display. And the business rules and data to be relatively stable. Therefore, said that the frequent need to change the View objects that the business rules and data model to be relatively stable target, and that the control of the Controller is the most stable. When the system is usually issued after the View objects by artists, designers or HTML/JSP system managers to manage. Controller target applications development personnel from the development and implementation of rules for commercial and business development personnel from the target data, database managers and experts in the field of common completed. Show in Web?? or customers - control logic can be Servlet or JSP, dynamically generated Html. Generally used Servlet better than using JSP. JSP will be better with the Html code of separate codes for page designers and developers of separation efficiency. Servlet and JSP can complete all complete functions, actually JSP eventually converted into a Servlet. And control of the target system exists in every level, the coordination of cross-layer moves. Contain business rules and data objects exist in the EJB layer (EJB-centred model) or Web?? (Web-centred model).
    3.1 View in the Web application system
    View of the system shows that it fully exist in Web??. General by JSP, Java Bean and Custom Tag. JSP can generate dynamic web content using Java Custom Tag easier Bean, but it can show the logic of packaging, and more conducive to modular trusted. Some well-designed in a number of JSP Custom Tag can even be used in different system duplication. Model for control of JSP and Java Bean objects. JSP through Java Bean objects to retrieve the data model, the Model and Controller object is responsible for updating the data on Java Bean. In general, can we devise all possible screen that users can see all the elements of the system. Based on these elements, to identify the public part of passive components and dynamics. Can consider the use of templates means to separate the content generated JSP public, also need to change their generation Html or JSP from a JSP templates to dynamically introduce these different parts (include methods). Another issue to consider is screen option, when dealing with End users request template automatically available to show that the concern that users must know what is the screen components. So can consider all screens on the definition of a centralized document, such as a document or text document java. Taking into account the possibility of changes in future document definition screens, the best use of text documents such as a XML document, so future changes to the recompilation. According to the URL and user input parameters to shine upon the results of a screen, of course, likely to be made on the basis of the outcome of the implementation of actions to choose different results screen. Therefore, the need for a request for matching resources with document (XML), if a URL request several different results, it must specify in the document need to control the flow (a controller object), as well as the corresponding screen different flows.
    3.2 Model in the Web application system
    Model objects represent business rules and business data exist in EJB layer and Web??. In J2EE norms, the system needs some data stored in the database, such as user account information (account model), the company's data (company model), some not recorded in the database. If a user browsing the current catalogue (catalog model), the contents of his shopping (shopping cart model). Which one of these models exist in the data according to their life cycle and scope to decide. In Web?? a HttpSession and ServletContext and Java Bean objects to store data in the EJB layer is a data storage and logic EJB to. Web?? the Java Bean objects stored in the model layer model of the EJB object data copy. Because there are many different EJB tier model targets, so Web?? through a ModelManager to control the EJB layer object model in ModelManger background model can be used for packaging methods. In the EJB layer and the rules have all the data into EJB model is inappropriate. If the database can visit the Dao object model into objects. Dao can be encapsulated and the specific details of the database in the world, if we can write a different table, a number of databases, or even multiple databases. If the orders can be a model for OrderDAO, it may have to deal with Order table, table and OrderItemLines OrderStatus table. Value can also consider the use of targets. Value can be a target of securing long-range targets, because every time the remote object attributes could be a long-range redeployment process will consume network resources. EJB objects in the distance can be used instead target. In the distance, one-time items to be targeted instead of the value of all attributes.
    3.3 Controller in Web application system
    Coordination with the Model View Controller object to the request of users into the system to identify incidents. In Web?? generally a MainServlet (or Main.jsp), and receiving all requests, it can use screen flow management devices (ScreenFlowManger) decided next screen. There is a general request processors RequestProcessor contains all requests are needed to be done to deal with logic, such as the request translated into system events (RequestToEvent). Acting processors usually also includes a request for ClientControlWebImpl, it is logical to deal with the EJB layer in Web?? Acting. In EJB layer, a layer for EJB tier Web ClientController provide the CD visit. Another StateMachine used to create and delete ejb handle Web?? sent to the incident. Controller Another important function is synchronous View and Model data. ModelManger contained in a ModelUpdateManger, it puts events into a Model System assembly that all the needs of synchronous Model, and then notify Listeners do synchronous operation.
    4. Concluding remarks
    In recent years, with the Internet technology development and the emergence of new business models, the Web is based on a large number of applications. On how to design these systems architecture, and gradually there has been some convergence of opinion, the most important point is that its structure should be rational in the open. Demand than ever faster development of technology and design concepts, systems for the future, the cost of upgrading the smallest, research software systems architecture still very useful and necessary.

    Bravo. And your point is?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • Where would someone turn if they think they may be interested in apple/mac software development for systems and applications?

    Where would someone turn if they think they may be interested in apple/mac software development for systems and applications? I do have some experience with industrial machine control programming. Not that it directly applies, however I have been involved in some types of programming.

    You might start by reading this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/gamesblog/2009/feb/10/gameculture-apple
    I would check out the refurbished section of the online Apple Store before buying a used one from Craislist. They go quickly so you have to check often. It will be more than sufficent for you to work with.
    There are more than a few such books, go to a book store near you and browse them yourself to see which one works for you.
    For items 3 and 4 wait until you are ready for a commercial app and then seek help from a lawyer and an accountant.

    Hi
    Assuming that you purchased Logic from the Appstore, did you download all the additional content?
    Go to the Logic Pro menu and choose "Download Additional Content".... there's loads to download, so it is probably best to do it in batches.

    I've looked around the preference panels but cannot find where to set the import settings for dragging and dropping sound files into multitrack view. Some of our computers have correct settings and others do not. Thanks for your help!
    G

    I should have been more specific, sorry... I mean bit depth and bit rate... On some machines this defaults correctly and on other machines it is wrong. Not sure how to set these to downconvert properly by default. Unless it automatically takes the format of the source file, in which case it's just been luck.

  • Why are some 100% Accurate Rips not matched by iTunes Match?

    Why are some 100% Accurate Rips not matched by iTunes Match?
    Is there an Apple Support employee that can address this question?
    The phenomenom occurs for over 500 of my tracks spread out among 100+ albums.
    Certain tracks simply do not match to the iTunes library, despite being 100% Accurate bit-for-bit Rips. For reference, I use dBpoweramp for ripping, which checks CRC.
    As an example, take Aerosmith's "Get a Grip" album; Tracks 2 and 5 will not Match to iTunes, despite perfect integrity in the ripping process.
    Upon looking further into those particular tracks, I notice a discrepency between the "track length" reported on the iTunes store page, and my accurate rips for those tracks [track 2 & 5 on iTunes: 4:09 & 6:19, respectively; track 2 & 5 direct accurate rip from physical CD: 4:10 & 6:07, respectively].
    So clearly, with track 5, there is a major discrepency, 12 seconds difference, which leads me to think the iTunes release of this album and retail release of the CD I physically own are quite different.
    Well there, I guess I've solved the "reason" for the undesired functionality, but it certainly doesn't solve the issue at hand.
    A major aspect of the iTunes Match product is To Match, so that, in part, bit-rate upgrades can take place, and also to provide management and format uniformity.  I do realize that there is no guarantee iTunes has every album one could own, and entirely un-matched, and thereby Uploaded, Albums are a significant upside feature of iTunes Match; however, 1+ tracks on each of a significant quantity of albums, which iTunes carries, not matching to iTunes creates heterogeneous-format albums, and significantly more library management.
    If there is a workaround for this issue it would significantly improve the user experience for iTunes Match.  A user shouldn't have many hetereogeneous-format albums when iTunes carries/sells those albums, and the user has perfect quality rips from their physical CD.

I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either.  This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed.  How can I get it going again?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
