Why do I have Japanese iTunes in my Front Row?

In Front Row, when I got to Music, it has two iTunes items at the top of the list. But they are in Japenese... what gives? Best I can tell, they are album samples of random Japanese music.

actually guys if you log into the guest account and open front row things should be correct. if that is the case, then copy the plist from the guest account and put it in your account and all is fixed. I have verified on 3 macbooks that had this problem.

  • Do you have these iTunes playlists in Front Row?: Applications, Library ?

    My Front Row has some bugs, I think.
    Inside Music->Playlists, the following are listed but do not show their contents:
    Applications
    Library
    TV Shows
    But Applications shouldn't be there and TV shows already shows up in the main front row menu.
    As for Library, this is my entire iTunes library. does anyone have this issue:?

    I just got my intel mac today and I have the same problem. I do not know how to solve it.

  • Can't access Itunes Library in Front Row

    Well I sure am confused. I downloaded a TV show from Itunes last night, but could not access it from Front Row. Then I noticed that I cannot access any of the music in my Itunes library from Front Row. It simply is not listed. The only thing that is listed is "Itunes top TV Episodes". The only way I have been able to access stuff is putting it in my movies folder in the sidebar of my Finder window. Shouldn't I be able to access something I download from Itunes instantly, without moving the file anywhere?
    Another weird thing is when I went to Finder>Help and typed in "Front Row" it said no results found. Other threads in this forum lead me to believe that there is a manual built in to the computer. Mine is hidden or gone somehow?
    PLEASE HELP!!!!! I love my macs, but this kind of stuff drives me nuts!
    I have Front Row 1.0
    Itunes 8.2.1
    OS X 10.5.7

    Switched it to manual , all's OK . Thanks

  • ITunes U and Front Row?

    I can't seem to see my iTunes U videos and audio files with Front Row.
    Under 'Options' I have 'iTunes U' selected as media type.
    In 'Front Row' I can see an 'iTunes U' playlist... but it's empty.
    Any help greatly appreciated. If all else fails I'll just change the 'Media Type' to 'Movies' but I'd like a better solution.
    Thanks

    One way to have iTunes U inside Front Row is to create an "alias" of the iTunes U folder inside the Movies folder so it will appear inside the Movies Folder menu.
    This way I have avoided to turn all of my iTunes U downloads into Podcasts and still continue having new downloads available without any pain.
    Guys, let me know if there is an easier way.

    You don't.  Apple no longer ships Front Row... it's part of the OS... so it goes away when you upgraded.

  • Why do I get a black screen in front row when watching some iTunes store purchases? esp Cars 2

    We bought Cars 2 a few months ago from the iTunes store. The movie won't work in Front Row, we only get a black screen (except for the blue Front Row controls at the bottom) although the audio comes through just fine. The annoying part is all of our other iTunes store movies work fine in Front Row. Just Cars 2 is broken. I don't think that it is an authorisation problem because it plays okay in iTunes, Quicktime, even via airplay to an appleTV or via Home Sharing to our iPad.
    The movie is only standard definition so I am guessing that it is not an HDCP issue; I understand that there is only HDCP on HD movies. We are playing it on a Mac Mini (core 2 duo) on a Sony Bravia via a VGA connector.
    After a little bit of complaining, apple let us download the movie again in case the file was corrupted, but unfortunately the same problem with the new version.
    The computer did have Perian installed at one point, but uninstalling and restarting made no difference.
    I have found lots of reports of movies with missing picture in Front Row but these are all ripped videos, never with an iTunes Store purchase.
    Apple won't refund our money as the purchase was more than 60 days ago by the time I gave up troubleshooting and reported the problem.

    Yeah! Problem solved: It's a QT issue.
    Cause: Mac Update Software downloaded a faulty QT.
    Solution: Download QT from Apple's QT site.
    Great to have the Video back

  • Weird Japanese music preview in Front Row.

    Hello.
    For some reason, inside Front Row, I have an option to hear 30 second snips from various J-Pop artists.
    Why ????
    I don't listen to J-Pop, I have never listened to J-Pop, and I have never used the Japanese iTunes store (The text is in Japanese...).
    How do I get rid of this ?

    Do you mean to ignore the iTunes options all together? Check out this recent topic. You should be able to disable it by typing (or copying and pasting) this command in the Terminal utility:
    defaults write com.apple.frontrow EnableITMS -bool NO
    Then shut down Front Row with this command:
    killall "Front Row"

  • Any way to have a movies playlist in Front Row?

    I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to set up Front Row (most recent version) so that it will play multiple movie files (within the movies folder) in a row? I'd like to set it and forget it sometimes and just have it play a bunch of things in a row. I could live with it if it just would play all contents of a folder sequentially, but ideally I'd love to see a playlist feature (like iTunes has for music) for movies. I would love to set up my own TV channel so to speak - lining up what's on each night. Or perhaps even utilizing something like a smart playlist that will dynamically create random viewing based on the criteria you specify for tags, etc.
    I read about someone who suggested saving movies (all of mine are Xvid - been using them on my Phillips DVD player for the last year) in QuickTime as "reference files" and then putting those into iTunes to trick the system (since Xvid won't play in iTunes). Would doing something like this allow for video playlists?
    Thanks!

    Not quite yet. However, the newest line of iPods, including the new iPod nano (video) does support playing video playlists. This would indicate that Apple is aware of this feature and it may be coming to other hardware or software in the future. I might suggest you send Mac OS X feedbac to Apple and request this feature in Front Row.

  • Parental controls: iTunes library and Front Row

    I'm trying to set up parental controls in iTunes on my media centre Mac, which is a PowerMac G4 MDD and so can't run Snow Leopard. I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.8, iTunes 9.2.1 (5) and Front Row 2.1.7 (309).
    I'm using a managed account which allows Front Row and iTunes. Within iTunes I have set the parental controls so that only films rated U are allowed. This works for shared content and the iTunes store (as noted in the preferences) but doesn't affect movies in the iTunes library. For example, Alien is rated 15 but still plays in both iTunes and Front Row. Is there any way to restrict this behaviour?
    BTW, I've used MetaX to tag movies that I've added to the library myself (i.e. not through the iTunes store) - this works well: other Macs using iTunes see the rating in the shared version and restrict it from being played. However, it can still be played on the host Mac.

    Fixed in Snow Leopard

  • Why didn't the Mac Pro come with Front Row?

    I have absolutely loved my quad-core mac pro. It's been one of the best-performing computers I've ever owned, but this issue has somewhat annoyed me for quite some time: Why didn't this computer come with Front Row?
    I wouldn't imagine an IR port would be difficult at all to install into the case, so why wasn't it? I suppose I could rationalize its omission as this being a computer aimed at professionals--but then again MacBook Pro has Front Row as well... so what gives?
    Is there any aftermarket ways of having Front Row work with your Mac Pro?

    Indeed, I'm going to try the Wii remote approach as soon as mine arrives.
    It will also usable as a MIDI controller in Logic
    Anyone know if it's easy to redirect the DVD player output to a second DVI card? I have two monitors on the X1900 and I have a 7300 spare which I could use to drive my projector.

  • Why do i have to itunes library xml files?

    Along with iTunes Library, there are two xml files i have; itunes music library.xml and itunes library.xml, do i need them both? I only ask as the file path information in itunes music library.xml are not up to data(i moved my library to an external HD) and would like to know if it would be safe to delete it.
    The links in itunes library.xml have seem to been updated.
    Thanks
    "If it's not broken, don't fix it...
    ........I never learn!"

    Google is your friend! (To quote:)
    iTunes Music Library.xml
    This file contains some (but not all) of the same information stored in the iTunes Library file. The purpose of the iTunes Music Library.xml file is to make your music and playlists available to other applications on your computer. In Mac OS X other iLife applications (like iPhoto, iDVD, and iMovie) use this file to make it easier for you to add music from your iTunes library to your projects.

  • Why do I have two itunes libraries

    After I updated Itunes, I now have two duplicate itunes libraries. How do I delete just one?

    Hmm, assuming you are using the same computer/library previously used to update the device then perhaps your library was rebuilt automatically following a crash. This can result in it having a different internal ID so when you connect your device it is seen as a "new" library, even if the content is the same. See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.

  • Why do I have Japanese next to my firefox logo on top bar?

    At the very top left of my screen where the firefox logo is, a succession of Japanese letters occurs. It changes when I change web pages as if it's labeling my pages in Japanese or something. My selected language is English so I don't understand what is happening.

    It is possible that Firefox uses UTF-16 encoding for that text in the title bar instead of UTF-8.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Front Row Doesn't work with iTunes

    I liked that Front Row in Tiger was basically a front for your iTunes. Now they are separate. If you're listening to iTunes and launch front row, you have to start your listening over. That's stupid! Why would Apple do that?
    That's the main function I used front row for. I don't want my listening experience to stop when I de-activate front row. Forget that.

    Yay! I'm happy. This worked:
