Why is it that iTunes looks different from all other apps again?

This might be a rather irrelevant question, yet I wonder: Why is it that iTunes doesn't look like the majority of other Apple apps? I guess it's mainly the scrolls bars and the check boxes. Not that I don't like the way iTunes look, I'm just curious why it has to look different when one of Leopard's goals was to make a more unified interface.
Can anyone enlighten me or is this something that only Apple knows?

"Besides, not all of us run Leapard, so wouldn't making iTunes look like leapard make it look different on all our systems that don't use leapard?"
That's a point But what I meant by that was that in Tiger there are many different kinds of windows where Apple in Leopard has tried to stick to just one. And that's why I think it's so weird that iTunes has to differ from all the rest.

  • No web with safari, itunes, but can with all other apps.

    Hi
    I get no web connection with Safari and iTunes, but I can with all other apps. (Firefox, Entourage, Mail, Transmit-FTP)
    iTunes says: connection denied, Safari says: web page not found, but every other web app I have can connect.
    What gives?

    Hi,
    Do you have any proxies selected in your Network preferences?
    If so, try unselecting them and retry Safari/iTunes.

    Can Windows XP use a different sound card for itunes - I want to use a sound card for itunes and another for all ther apps

    To the best of my knowledge, Windows is not capable of setting a specific sound card based on the app being used, it's all or nothing.
    Try a google search or search the Microsoft site.

  • I want to change the computer that I sync my ipod to.  How do I do that without having to download all my apps again

    My computer is really slow, so I want to change the computer that I sync my ipod to.  What is the easiest way to change computers and get all my apps, music, pics, books etc. to the new computer for syncing?

    Assuming that there is enough storage space on your iPod to hold all of your songs, the most direct way would be to combine all of the song files from your various computers to the computer you wish to use as your main library and sync all. If you don't still have all of the files that are currently on your iPod for what ever reason, there are programs that can copy non-store purchases from iPod to computer, which will allow you to follow my first suggestion. Search this forum for recommendations of which programs will work for your setup. iTunes Store purchases can be downloaded again if you have the log-in and password, but there is a limited number of times you can do that. If you have run out of authorizations, you can de-authorize all devices once per year. There is more to this than I can tell you now, so search the forum for that info too.
    One thing to be careful of is that iTunes may ask you when you first hook up your iPod to a computer that is not the same as the last computer it synced to is whether you want to sync to it now. If you say yes, it will delete all of the content on your iPod and sync what ever you have iTunes set up to sync. You will want to say no to this prompt if you see it unless you have first gathered all of your song files into the new library.

  • Why is my DW layout looking different from the browsers?  So confused...

    Hi guys,
    I've been successfully struggling through my first attempt at building a website using Fireworks and DW CS4.  What has been puzzling me is that how the site looks in DW is not how it looks in my browser.  Oddly enough, all the browsers are displaying exactly what I want (so far), but in the DW layout, some of my images are overlapping.  It's as if I have to get them almost on top of each other just so they can appear close together in browsers.
    This is making it somewhat tough to add my hyperlinks to images that are underneath the other ones and I am worried that I am doing something wrong.  I posted pictures of both the DW layout and what is showing up in the browsers I have checked (Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer all look the same).  Note:  The first pic on top is displaying in Firefox, the second pic beneath in the layout in DW.
    Thanks a million in advance

    #1 Design View is the result of your underlying HTML & CSS code.  At best it's an approximation of what you can expect to see in browsers.  For best results, work in Split View or Code View.  Use Live View & Preview in browsers to test your layout.
    #2 DW is not click & drag like your graphics apps.  If you're trying to work this way, you'll have poor results.
    #3 Fireworks is great for creating web images & comps.  It's not so great at generating HTML code. Use DW to build your page layout.  If you're new to web design, it's much easier to start projects with a pre-built CSS Layout.  See DW Starter Pages below.

    Why does my Aperture v3.5.i look different from the one shown in the online videos

    Are you asking about the colorful icons in the video?
    The video must have been done with an Aperture version 3.2.4 or earlier. Since Aperture 3.3 are the icons drab and gray - the Aperture 3.3 Release Notes are calling this:
    Newly designed monochrome source list and toolbar icons.
    The Release notes will tell you, what has changed since then:

  • Why has my past iTunes music dissapered from my "Purchased" section

    Why has my past iTunes music dissapered from my "Purchased" section

    The iTunes Store indeed does not have any phone support. Try this direct link to the contact forum:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    If you still receive a "case closed" message with no further explanation, or have tried that form with no useful result, try resubmitting and explaining the problem in a different way. They may just not be understanding your issue. Of course you will want to be polite; if you just rant, they may well just trashcan your issue.
    If you continue to have problems, you can try calling the Apple Support line and asking for Customer Relations. They may be able to help you get a resolution.

  • Why does Photoshop display colors differently from the other applications even in sRGB mode ?

    Hello all !
    Here is my problem :
    Photoshop is set to use sRGB workspace (in edit/colors.../workspace/RVB).
    If I understand correctly this is how all native windows applications work.
    This means Photoshop and the other applications should display the same colors on a file with a sRGB profile.
    Now this is the case until I calibrate my monitor.
    When I do, Photoshop colors become different from the other applications (irfanview, explorer, browsers...).
    The only way I found to let everything display the same colors is to set Photoshop to use Proofing/RVB Monitor.
    What upsets me even more is that Photoshop colors look "better" to me (dark grays seem to dark to me in the other applications.)
    I have read that this is because Photoshop takes the new profile into account and others applications do not. But I don't think this is relevant here because everything is in sRGB so the only profile is my monitor's and I think calibration is handled globally by windows : everything (including browsers, explorer, and Photoshop) changes color if I choose to apply the monitor's profile or not with windows color management tool ("use my parameters for this device").
    Here is my system configuration :
    - Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2)
    - Windows 7 64 bits
    - HP ZR2440W and DELL 2209WA (these are not wide gamut screens)
    I have spent two days trying to figure the logics behind this and really am upset. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Don't hesitate to ask me if there is something that is unclear or some information I forgot to mention.
    Thanks in advance,
    Yannick

    That sounds like an invitation to continue to talk about the issue.  Fair enough.
    I'm not sure where you're getting "insecurity"...  I am just trying to help you help others more effectively.
    I invite you to re-read just the first sentence of what you wrote very carefully, putting yourself in the shoes of someone struggling with both the terminology and the concepts:
    Photoshop (CMS) reads an embedded ICC profile and CONVERTS it to the custom monitor profile for a theoretical 'true color' display
    Think about what "Photoshop (CMS)" might mean to a person who doesn't know the acronym might stand for "Color Management System" (which is I assume what you meant).  Adobe themselves don't call it "CMS", they use the acronym "CMM" (Color Management Module).  The term "CMS" is used in the computer industry for about a dozen different things.
    While a color profile might have been embedded in an image file before it was opened by Photoshop, Photoshop works on documents.  A profile is not "embedded" in a document, it is maintained by Photoshop with the document and describes the color values in the document.  If Photoshop opens a document without an embedded profile, depending on settings and user choices it might assign a profile or it might even operate on the document without color-management.  Oversimplification doesn't help people when they're trying to learn new things unless it's described as such, for example, "This is a bit of an oversimplification..." or "Generally speaking..."
    Not every monitor profile is a "custom monitor profile".  Quite often a standard profile (e.g., sRGB IEC61966-2.1) is associated with a monitor by the operating system as a default, or a factory profile is installed by a driver package or system update.  Your use of the term "custom" is a bit ambiguous and could be read as implying the creation of a profile using a calibration and profiling device specific to the particular monitor.
    Photoshop's color management code does not convert an embedded ICC profile at all (read carefully what you wrote).  As I said, it transforms color values.  That was the key error in your description that prompted me to comment.
    If ever there is a time to pick words carefully, it's in a color-management discussion.

  • In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto window, why is the number of items different from the total

    In the info bar at the bottom of the iphoto screen, why is the number of items different from the total?

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What mode are you in, i.e. Events, Photos?
    If it's the Photos mode the number at the bottom will represent the number of photos displayed in that mode or the number of photos selected in that mode. The number will match the number next to the photos mode only when there are no photos in that mode that are selected. 
    If you click on the Events icon and then back on the photos icon the numbers should match.

  • My firefox home page looks different from your tutorial

    I am trying to learn to use firefox. Sometimes the firefox home page looks different from the one in your tutorial. Fox example, now I am looking above and the "plus sign" symbol to add a new tab is not there. Please advise me. Thank you.

    You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.
    You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.
    If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.

    If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

  • Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    First of all, GarageBand iOS allows for only one tempo and there is no Merge Song feature.
    What you can do.
    Switch between the songs and copy-paste the individual Tracks. You can also Merge Tracks if you run into the 8 Track limitation.
    Hope that helps

  • Layout Looks Different from Dreamweaver to Email?

    I am currently using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 to create emails for my work. Last month I started having an issue where the 3 columns I have in the template would look even in Dreamweaver, but when I sent a test email to myself they looked completely off. This past week I have encountered another issue where the cellpadding of the email looks different from Dreamweaver to email. I am new to HTML and coding so it could just be me, but is anyone having a similar problem and if so, is there a way to fix it?
