Wrong Dutch translation in iTunes 8.0 (Windows XP/Vista)

Hello there!
I just noticed a small translation error in iTunes 8.0, it's about the free space available on an ipod/iphone.
In English the grey bar at the bottom of the screen reads "Free", which is alright, but if you have your language set to Dutch, it reads "Gratis", which is a whole different translation of the word "free".
"Gratis" is "Free" as in: "Buy this book and get a free pencil with it."
The right translation of "Free" as in "free space" would be "Over", "Resterend", "Resterende ruimte", "Vrij" or "Vrije ruimte".
I don't know if anyone else noticed this error in his own language, but it's a pretty clumsy thing to leave in iTunes. (I did find it quite amusing by the way.)
Steven

You're being very polite there, JvetS. I can't remember ever seeing such a translation blunder from a major technology company. And it's new in iTunes 8.0; in earlier versions Apple didn't confuse "free beer" with "free space"...
Also it's quite funny, as you said. I first thought it referred to all the free AppStore applications on my phone.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

Lost all Playlists in MAC iTunes AFTER Upgrading Windows iTunes to v.10.7 (via Parallels) - HELP!

I HAVE iTUNES v 10.6x installed on my Macbook Pro - been using for quite awhile without issues. All Updates to iTunes have gone just fine. I also use Parallels Desktop with Windows XP Pro installed on it and within that Windows installation on this Mac, I have installed many software programs -- all okay for over 3 years - no real issues. I also have installed iTunes in the Windows, but never really used the Preferences of iTunes to use its Advanced settings to change the location of the Library to the same location of the Mac's iTunes -- the Library is on an external HD. The use of iTunes in Windows was never really used because I never had the right location of the Library set in Preferences.
About 5 days ago, while in Windows XP, I got an Apple Software Upgrade Notice that a new version of iTunes was available for download -- Version 10.7. Not thinking about it then, I told myself that when I finished upgrading inside Windows that I would exit Windows and while in Macbook Pro's OS X 10.5.8, i just knew there would be an Apple Software Update Notice to also update my Mac's iTunes to version 10.7 also. That's what I planned to do while still in Windows. While installing the update to version 10.7 within Windows, I thought I'd try to set the proper location for the Library file using iTunes' Preferences and Advance Tab. I finished the upgrade to 10.7, went into Preferences and Advanced Tab and did just that and set the correct location on the external harddisk then tried to play songs using my Windows XP's upgraded iTunes. IT WORKED JUST FINE.
I now exited from Windows and went back to straight Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8 and tried to check for this upgrade for iTunes from 10.6x to 10.7 by going to the Apple Website and downloaded this from there. When I then attempted to install the downloaded 10.7 (to replace/update my 10.6x) it would not install because my OS X 10.5.8 is not useable for the new 10.7. Okay, I'd just use my tried and true version 10.6x. WRONG!!!!!
When I attempted to open my iTunes on the Mac, it would open, but all my normal screen views were gone -- NO PLAYLISTS WHATSOEVER. The Music folder (the Library?) was fine but all songs had the infamous "!" MARK next to each and every song -- not playable. So, remembering the Library location setting in Preferences was the way to "reset" iTunes so the Library would be recognized and useable, I went into Preferences and reset the Library to the proper and same location as it always had been (and, where I had just previously set the Windows' iTunes to). Now the "!" marks were gone and each song in the Music Folder played just fine. BUT, NO PLAYLISTS WHATSOEVER. ALL MY ORGANIZATION EFFORTS FOR YEARS WAS GONE!!!
My thoughts are that the Windows iTunes upgrade to 10.7 changed some key iTunes files common to both operating systems on the Macbook Pro, Parallels Desktop, and Windows XP installation -- some Windows iTunes program files are kept and store in the same default location as the Mac's and on the internal hard drive of the Mac.
Because, in further researching this problem, I found that the "iTUNES LIBRARY.itl" file located on the Mac's hard drive had, in fact, been changed by the Windows iTunes upgrade to 10.7!!!!!! THOSE CHANGES "CORRUPTED" THIS FILE TO USE IN THE MAC iTUNES PROGRAM AND THE PLAYLISTS ARE GONE. I also use this software in this effort: PARALLELS DESKTOP VER 7.X, FULLY UPDATED WINDOWS XP PRO, FULLY UPDATE AS MUCH AS APPLE HAS PROVIDED TO MY OS X 10.5.8 (I CAN'T UPGRADE TO LION), AND OF COURSE iTUNES 10.6x.
THEREFORE, WHAT EXACTLY SHOULD/COULD I DO TO GET THE PLAYLISTS BACK INTO MY MAC OS X 10.5.8 iTUNES? I DON'T CARE TO USE THE WINDOWS iTUNES ANYMORE -- I'LL JUST STAY WITH MY MAC'S. PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOU.

what can be wrong?

I recommend you do as LexSchellings and I are telling you to do. If you have uninstalled iTunes and the reinstalled it from Apple's website and it still does not work, you will have to contact the Apple Technical Support section for them to guide you through steps to try and get it working.

How do I convert my iTunes library to windows 8 without losing my music

How do I upgrade iTunes to from windows 7 to windows 8 without losing my music??

iTunes has not yet been certified for Windows 8. Some people are running it anyway.
However, before upgrading, you should back up everything, including your music. If anything goes wrong, at least you will still have your music and other files.

I cant install Itunes on my windows 8 laptop. (unspecified errors encountered)

I have tried to install Itunes and Icloud on my windows 8 laptop. I have hunted all through the laptop and see no sign that any apple product has ever been on this laptop, yet iget errors during the install process that causes the installer to abort the install and go right to finish. I have tried to install Itunes repeatedly and it always fails at the same point. Icloud also fails to install. I get a message that says errors have been encountered, but no indication of what those errors are. can anyone suggest a fix for this? or tell me what it is I am doing wrong?

Recently downloaded iTunes on my windows Vista PC and its incomplete.

Recently downloaded iTunes on my windows Vista PC everything comes up on the screen except there is no Edit, View, Controls etc., no tabs for Music, Movies, TV Shows etc., no viewing for their sub-categories in the drop down, no three lights in the upper left corner and I cannot type in the search box. What's missing or wrong with this download? Really hard to make a purchase.

Hi ...thanks for trying to help.

Running two iTunes accounts using Windows XP

Just got a new PC. This runs Windows XP. There are three of us who will use this PC using 3 different accounts and not surprisingly we each have totally separate music tastes. Can we create 3 different iTune libraries on the same PC.
How do you this?

It's possible to have multiple libraries in a single Windows user account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using an iPod, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
Another option is to create a separate Windows User account for each person on your PC. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one.
I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:

Moving iTunes files to Windows on a data DVD

I burned a big playlist onto a data DVD on my Powerbook, then took the disc to work and popped it into my Windows box, and recent model IBM thinkpad.
My thinkpad's iTunes does see the disc, and will play off it. Next I used "add to library" to copy the files from the DVD to my library in the thinkpad, and it apparently worked.... the songs all show up in the library, and they'll play from the library.
iTunes is pointed towards it's library on the thinkpad. But when I play one of the songs, the DVD spins up. And when I take the DVD out, and attempt to play a song, I get the little gray exclamation point, and iTunes tells me that the original file cannot be located.
What am I doing wrong here? Both iTunes at home and at work are the most recent version. The home computer is a 17 inch powerbook.

OK, I'm a dummy. I've now checked the little box that says "copy files when adding to library" in the Preferences Advanced dialogue box, and everything is fine.

How can I consolidate my itunes music with Windows Media Player?

How can I consolidate my itunes music with Windows Media Player?

Ah, did you move your media files by hand? Often doing so will have broken the links from iTunes to them.
The "missing file" error 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, one of its parent folders, or 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 click No when asked to try to locate the track. (Due to a bug in iTunes 12 you currently have to say No twice!) 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, a folder renamed, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. If the difference between the two paths is an additional Music folder in one path then this is a layout issue. I can explain further if that is the case.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info but this time click Locate and browse to the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links.
If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed the files then the chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies will make it hard to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is expecting. In such cases, as long as the missing files can be found somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.
