why is itunes so hard to use - and why can't apple fix it
I dont know anybody who likes the way itunes works.'
This last version is beyond awful. It took an already hard to use program - but one that I had at least figured out and made it even harder.

Wendy,
If you are experiencing a particular problem, please post specifics, and most likely someone here will be able to help.

Why does itunes 10.5 keep opening and how can I stop this annoying behavior?

Has anyone else had this problem and do you know of a solution?

I too have this same gamma switching/ auto contrast error in Quicktime Player and iTunes movie playback and it has been most frustrating for a while now.
For fullscreen video playback it makes both applications completely useless for professional and private use.
I can confirm that when the mouse is moved the effect disappears and the image quality returns to the original state. However this should not be happening and we need to get to the bottom of it for the benefit of others in the future.
Thanks in advance! Any help would be much appreciated.

Screen Message"File iTines Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" What is this and how can it be fixed?

Screen Message on P.C. "File "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.
What is this and how can it be fixed, please?

Problem solved by doing the following:
Open PC/Mac and search for iTunes Library.
From the list, select the most recent version of iTunes Library. Save this to a folder.
Delete iTunes from your computer.
Install latest version of iTunes.
When I opened the new version of iTunes, everything was there as before.
I didn't need to import the saved version of iTunes Library. Maybe this happens automatically?????

Why my Mac Pro hard drive noise and too slow?

Why my Mac Pro hard drive noise and too slow? Totally 8 gb speed system but now very slow . Please give some suggestions

Another thing you can do in Lion (and ML) is click on the "Info" button in Disk Utility to get the SMART status of the drive.It's more detailed now than it used to be and it might tell you if something is wrong.
A lot can go wrong with a hard drive which is why I tend to point people to the downloads section of the following web site:
http://scsc-online.com
They have a free hard drive troublleshooting download book there. I reccommend people download that before asking questionis because there are tons of problems that can act like hard drive problems when there's nothing wrong with the system at all. For example, how full is the drive? How many applications are running? What's the status of Spotlight indexing? How many apps are you running? How much memory do you have?
I could probably think up 20 or 30 more if needed.

I have a similar problem. I recieved an IPAD for my birthday, and my daughter updated my itunes library so i can use it with the ipad...and somehow all my songs (unpurchased from itunes, and downloaded from a large collection of CDs) ...and play lists were deleted. I still have them on my old ipod, and wonder how to get them back onto my computer so I can redistribute some of them to the ipad. I must be getting too old for this tech stuff, it gets less user friendly every year.

How do I re-download podcasts? My external hard drive failed and I can't figure out how to download them again in the updated iTunes.

The Time Capsule drive is a network drive. You have to mount it on the desktop before you will be able to drag/drop files onto the disk. More tips are in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17312017#17312017
.....and then delete them from the Mac to free up space?
The Time Capsule was designed for your backups.
If you move a file to the Time Capsule drive and delete the file from your Mac.....you have no backup.
Your only copy of the file will be on the Time Capsule drive. I would only do this with files that I could afford to lose.
All drives fail. When.....not if....the Time Capsule drive has a problem, you will lose your data.

Query as Web Services!!! What are its uses and why do we need it?

What are its uses and why do we need it.. if other tools like Dashboard and crystal reports and Webi can connect to universe and create reports and Analytics...

Hello Rajsan Madhavarajan
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) is a SAP Business Objects (BOBJ) client-side tool that allows users to create and publish Web Services that can be made available over the Web. Once these web services are created and published, they can be consumed like any other standard Web Service in software applications including Xcelsius and Crystal Reports. But first we have to understand what exactly is a Web Service.
Web Service
A Web Service is a software system that supports interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS)
The two main components in QaaWS are the Client Tool and the Server. The QaaWS Client Tool gives the end user an easy to use wizard that allows them to create Universe queries and publish them as Web Services. Once the QaaWS is published, any user can securely access the data that the Web Service contains as long as they have access to that server. Have a look on image below that shows the information flow to and from the server via the client.
Advantages to QaaWS:
Very easy to use and intuitive interface Familiar look and feel for people who have used Web Intelligence
Leverages existing Business Objects Universes Shares metadata with Web Intelligence, Desktop Intelligence and Crystal Reports
Maintains Business Objects Enterprise Security
Allows live data feeds to be incorporated into Xcelsius Dashboards and Crystal Reports

What is better to use and why?

Hi,
What is better to use and why?
We have written follwing statements to check the existence of interested record in table.
1).
select count(*) from emp where deptno = 20;
2).
select 'X'
from dual
where exists (
select 'X' from emp
where deptno = 20);
Thanks and Regards,
Rushang Kansara

Assuming a large table, number two would be the fastest. If empno in unique, you can leave out the where exists part and just select x from emp where empno = 20. If empno is not unique, then using where exists can be faster. Assuming that empno is not unique, query 1 may elect to scan the whole table looking for that empno. Number 2 can use the index and return your result in, typically, three LIOs.
Again, it all depends on your indexing, size of tables, and uniqueness of key upon which you are searching.

Why does itunes store not pop up and not tell me why?

Why does itunes store not pop up and then not tell me why? i"m wondering if it could have anything 2do with me just transefering music with my flash drive?

Does it show in the Purchased section for downloading ? Click on the Purchased under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
If not then have you tried logging out and back into the account ? If that doesn't work either then try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

What power supply attachement do you use and why?

Hey All! im curious i use to use the AC wall plug that came with the magsafe charger but recently started using the power cord for more length. I started using it since im home most of the time and the outlets are pretty far from the sitting arrangements. So what do you use and why?
Thanks!

I use the longer one all the time, as I usually end up aways away from a plug, and its easier to fit into an outlet or power strip that is already overburdened with warts.
I don't understand why one cord is grounded, and the other is not. The brick clearly doesn't need grounding, so why is the longer cord grounded? Is it some sort of weird law?
When travelling, I ALWAYS throw the little short flip-out plug in though, just in case I am in some archiac building that has not been updated with 3-prong grounded wiring. I also heard that in Canada, most or all of the plugs are two-prong only.

What photo editing software is everyone using and why?

I am trying to find a good photo editing software to use and before spending any money on it would like to hear everyones opinion on what they use and why? Originally I intended on purchasing aperture ... but I am under the impression that aperture is being discontinued so now I am searching again ... thanks for everyones input in advance....

If after trying out iPhoto's editing capabilities for a while you find you want more capability give Adobe Photoshop Elements for Mac a try. It's reasonably priced and can do about 75% or so of what the full Photoshop can do like these:
There's a free, open source application that's a lot like the full Photoshop: GIMP for Mac. Another full featured editor along these same lines is Pixelmator.
Some Image Editors That Support layers:
Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
Pixelmator - $60
GIMP for Mac - Free
So there are a lot of choices out there to investigate.

Download the updated version of the software can not use and why?

Download the updated version of the software can not use and why?

It will help if you tell us what model of iPod touch you have, how and from where you downloaded the update, what version of iOS this update is, and details about the problem; "can not use" doesn't give us anywhere near enough information on which to base a diagnosis and offer suggestions.
Regards.
