Xml import error in itunes - please help
So I had to restore my computer to factory settings. Before I did that I read that I can save my thousands of itunes song ratings by creating a smart playlist for each rating and exporting them to xml.
I've since restored my computer and have added all of my music from my external to iTunes. When I try to import the xml files I've saved I'm getting the followging message 'Some of the songs in the file were not imported because they could not be found'.
Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? My music was always on my external hardd rive even before the restore and my path in itunes is conneted to my external. I have no idea what to do and am dreading the idea of rating thousands of songs all over again.
Please help!

Keep getting an error with itunes Please help
I'm a first time user with itunes I just bought my ipod a couple of months ago and everything has been working fine, but when I went to charge my ipod and all my music had been taken off my ipod. I did mess with my settings a little bit and I think that is what caused that to happen. well I put the default settings back on and I went to sync my music and about half way through i got a message that Could not sync my file and error (-69) has occurred. If anyone can help please do!
See if this trouble shooting article helps.

hi, I was trying to update my iPhone 3gS but when I turn it on again iTunes send me a message that says error 3194 occurs, please help me!!
If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice, It's in recovery mode. You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead. At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios. -
Whenever i try to sync my ipod a message keeps coming up saying "1 or more items could not be synced", apparently its error -69. Please help, i've tried rebooting my laptop, installing the latest itunes and turning off the wifi but nothing seems to work.
Are you using security software on your PC? If yes, try to disable the software or check the settings. More info here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

I backed up my movies and rebuild my computer, and after making sure i'm using the latest version of itunes and quicktime and and making sure i still had spare computer authorizations, i still get error 23132. Please help.
I had this exact issue. Spent over an hour on the phone with apple support, they couldn't resolve. Here is what I ended up doing, that worked.
1. Turned iTunes match off on all my iOS devices
2. Deleted the offending playlists from the iOS device they originated on
3. Started iTunes, let it run (literally) for an hour before it became responsive. First thing I did, before clicking anywere else was disable iTunes match. If I clicked anywhere, it would clock for another hour.
4. Let iTunes run overnight, by morning it had cleaned out the repeating play lists. This got my Mac/iTunes back to an operable state.
5. Restore iPhones from backup in iTunes.
What was causing my issue was a single playlist that was created on an iPhone, then suddenly showed up with several thousand duplicates on my other iPhone. The culprit playlist did not, for some reason, duplicate itself on my two iPads. Apple support seemed to think it was because the problem iPhone tried to sync the playlist to iCloud over and over again unsuccessfully, then it finally went through and populated the thousands of blank/failed playlists which then tried to propigate to iTunes and my other iOS devices. Seems like a reasonable theory.
I have not yet re-enabled iTunes match. So, no idea what will happen if I decide to go back down that rabbit hole. -
Cannot restore my brand new iphone 4s ,got stuck in DFU mode and itunes shows error code (-1) please help?
repeatedly tried from diffierent computers and the same error code pops up (error -1)That's a hardware problem which will require a trip to the Apple store for evaluation, unless your phone has been jailbroken, then it's a corrupt hosts file (and we can't help you with that here as it is against the forum's terms of use).

hi, i just try to update my 3g in itunes unfortunatly it got error while updating it asked me to restore update but unable to restore it , now my 3g i locked and on screen it displying usb symbol connect to itunes ,please help me regarding this
I suspect your error was 1015, not 1051. This usually involves a jailbroken iPhone, use Google to find your solution.

premier elements12, putting video clips (mov) in to edit work place time line after photos (jpeg) error message, the importer reported a generic error. ? please help.
TINA54
Thanks for the reply.
Some general comments...
Regarding:
THERE ANY WAY I CAN PUT MULTIPLE RANDUM TRANSITIONS IN TO THE TIME LINE WITH JUST ONE CLICK ? .
There is no transition choice for random transitions across the Premiere Elements 12 workspace Timeline. But, the Elements Organizer 12/Create Menu/Slideshow and its Slideshow Editor does have that random transition choice. So, one possibilitity would be to create your slideshow in Elements Organizer 12 Slideshow Editor and then move the slideshow into Premiere Elements with the Output of Edit with Premiere Elements Editor command.
Pending more details of the slideshow you are creating, I think that you would get your best photo quality and overall results staying with Premiere Elements 12 workspace (1080p) project and the transitions randomized manually.
perhaps applying the default to all (all at the same time),
using Timeline Menu/Apply Default Transition,
and then replacing transitions randomly for the random transition look).
Please let us know if any of that worked for you.
Thanks.
