Why does the list "jump" whenever I rename a song?

Hey guys!
When I organize my music I look at the files in the "Songs"-section (I don't know how you call it, sorry).
Now with the newest iTunes-updates I noticed: whenever I rename a song or change the artist-name etc. the whole list makes a jump so that the renamed song appears at the top. Now this is not a huge problem, but if I want to change a few names in a row it gets really annoying because I always have to "reorientate". And using the Info-window is inefficient, since I usually just need to change two or three songs per album.
As far as I recall I never had this problem with older iTunes-versions.
Do you guys know if this is a new feature? And can I turn it off somehow?

Surely there must be a setting to kill this. Surely, no one at Apple would be so much of a ding dong to implement this "feature" with no recourse. About 900 of my scongs lost their matadata in the upgrade to iTunes 11. Every song that is renamed causes the list to scroll upward, automatically. There is no stopping. I lose lose my spot within the list and must scroll down for miles and miles and miles. Surely, programming can't be this bad at Apple. This is terrible. I want to disable this, any ideas?
one possible work around, as of iTunes 11.1.3, is to rename tracks via info window (shortcut: ⌘I). When you are done, hit Next (shortcut: ⌘N) so it shifts focus to the next song; now you can exit out by hitting OK (shortcut: Return or Enter). No rename, no srolling
If you have the same issue then I suggest trying this workflow . . . until Apple takes it away from us too

Why does the text jump up and down when I'm trying to read or click on something? It's damned annoying. How can I stop it

Home page or email page, the page jumps up and down at random and when I try to click on something I often miss and end up clicking something I don't want. It gets real annoying and I can't find where to stop it. Why did someone think to do this in the first place. I've learned new profanity because of it.

Why does the video wobble whenever the camera moves ?

We have a LED TV with 120 Hz refresh rate and the ATV is 60 Hz max. Is that why the video wobbles whenever a fast moving object appears on the scene ?

HT4306 Why does the ping icon show next to some songs that I purchase and prevent me from burning onto a CD for my own personal use?

Hi. I am having trouble burning songs that I have purchased from the itunes store onto a CD for my own personal use in my car. Why is the ping icon next to some of the songs I purchase,When I try to burn these songs I am told by a pop up that these songs can't be found, but they are in my itunes music list.I don't understand. Please advise me asap. hx Wendy159

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 .

Why does the cursor jump from the Name box to the password box when logging in to Gmail?

When logging in to Gmail, I often (8/10) times find that while I am still typing the username, the cursor has jumped to the password box. The result is that part of the username is typed into the password box. I then have to click back onto the username box and re-enter the username.

Yes, this is very annoying!
I suspect a timing issue, that is, Google's scripts are still running for a while after the page is displayed and when the scripts see a non-blank value in the username, they moves the focus to the password ''even if you are in the midst of typing''.
If I wait a few seconds before I start typing in the username field, there's no problem. (I haven't experimented with the amount of time.)

ITunes 10 (Win 7) - Why does the marker hides whenever I try to switch languages?

This bug is so annoying for any dual keyboard user who want to switch back and forth between languages and have to readjust the mouse marker over and over again in the search field.

You do realize that the message means that you need to download iTunes on the computer and not on the iPad - correct? I just want to make sure that you know that.
If that is the problem, go here to download iTunes.

When I send a group email why does the address bar not present the names alphabetically?

I frequently send emails to groups. Sometimes, for one reason or another, I want to delete one or more contacts from the list that appears in the address bar. Why does the list not appear in alphabetical order and is there any way that I can edit my contact lists to make it do so? It means picking through a list one by one rather than scrolling down a list to find a contact in the correct order.

Basically I suggest you keep using Eudora.
Like most of those moving now, they are unlikely to be happy with anything else. But then that is to be expected, you have clung to abondonware for 5+ years after it's replacement. People that dedicated are unlikely to be happy with anything else.
The Business standard and professionalism are not based on the Eudora way of things. I suggest you stick undisclosed-recipients: into a google search box and get instructions on how to do things for all the major mail clients.
Of note Thunderbird displays nothing in the To field, even though the undisclosed-recipients: is inserted in the outgoing mail.
<blockquote>
I have tried using Bcc, and indeed, the recipients are suppressed, but not as a group. I have to change every recipient address from To: to Bcc: manually.
</blockquote>
Perhaps if you use the buttons at the bottom of the contact pane to add the list to BCC you would not have to manually change anything. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/addressing-email#w_selecting-the-entries-from-the-contact-pane
I am interested however how when you added a list so it appears on multiple lines. All I see is he list name until after I press the send button and look at it in the sent folder.
Most people use another address entirely in the to:, in conjunction with the BCC list. It verifies the list mail is sent by coming back and you can put whatever you like in the display name of the email address.

Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around? Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen. Is my mini possessed?

Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps. I reboot and still it happens. Any suggestions?

If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless... Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

Hi starbux48,
Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

I recently had to reinstall my software for a
dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

Why does the system chime sound whenever I open Reader 11 of a pdf document?

Why does the system chime sound whenever I open Reader 11 or a pdf document?

Don't know. You can turn system sounds OFF in your control panel. XP it's under Sounds, Vista, 7 & 8 it's under Hardware and Sound.
Click Change system sounds
Select "No Sounds" to disable all windows interface sounds.
Click Apply and OK

Texting on iPhone 5. When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order?

Texting on iPhone 5. When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order? This really slows you down when trying to contact 50 people with information. iPhone 4 worked just fine. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

None of my pictures that I uploaded into iPhoto are in my Finder under Pictures. Should I copy and paste my folders from iPhoto into here, in case something happens to my iPhoto program (in addition to backing them up onto an external hard drive like I already do)?
No, that's just wasting space. A back up needs to be on a different disk.
Your photos are within the iPhoto Library.

Hi drewskiiiiiiiii,
If you are having issues with your iPhone's Contacts application acting oddly, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
