iTunes 9 forgetting my "Allow Auto ...

I allow autodelete on my podcasts so that all those with playcount of 1 get deleted when podcasts are refreshed. But iTunes keeps forgetting this setting and I have to right-click the podcasts and select this setting every few days (for some podcast subscriptions).

How do I make iTunes remember this setting for my subscribed podcasts?

Organizing Files by Track Number ...

Hi. I am organizing classical music. Whenever I have recordings of the same piece by different artists, I like to put them all in the same folder (example Bach: Goldberg Variations folder contains performances of at least 5 pianists).

Problem is when I burn a disc, then add it to that folder, the tracks don't stay together but get all jumbled according to waht # they were on the CD. I select them and label them all as coming from different discs (Disc 1, Disc 2 etc) but that doesn't seem to sort them out. Any other way to do this?

iTunes 9.0 audio cuts in and out ...

Installed iTunes 9.0 recently and haven't noticed this problem before but when browsing on the web, navigating directories within the hard drive, etc., the audio cuts out briefly intermittently.

I thought this might have to do with running too many programs at once with 4GB of RAM but even if I scale back on programs running, I do not notice any difference. I recently installed Norton 360 and thought that might have something to do with it but not sure.

I don't notice the audio cut out like that anywhere else.

Anybody else notice this?

made an error moving iTunes Music and ...

In August when I had to re-install iTunes, motherboard melt down, I thought I'd transferred iTunes Music back to the F drive, where I keep my media library, correctly.
All downloads installed there and when I clicked Add Folder from my backup drive it installed without incident so everything was correct, or so I thought.

Today I got around to doing a backup with Synctoy and found out I was wrong.
The movies, music, etc. are all on F but they're not in a folder!
So Synctoy returns : error could not read from the source file system volume information.\access is denied.

The solution should be to create a folder on F for all the files, about 500 GB, but how do I do this and still keep the path for iTunes to follow?
Given that error the backup is not reliable even though Synctoy did, apparently, do a full back up anyway.

iTunes hangs after transferring music ...

Hey All,

I am using iTunes 9 on Windows Vista 64-bit to transfer music to my 1st gen iPod Touch but every time I transfer anything, iTunes hangs after it transfers everything. It doesn't matter if I am transferring 1 song or 100 songs, it transfers everything over, the message changes to "Syncing iPod" and that's where it dies. This has been happening for several months across several versions of iTunes. I have reinstalled iTunes, reset my iPod to factory and started fresh, nothing seems to fix it. It's very annoying to have to end the task after every file transfer. I am also using the USB cable that came with the iPod, not a third party cable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Improving audio quality at home. How? ...

This isn't directly related to iTunes, but to music in general. One thing I've always wondered was if sound cards really make a difference in music qualities?

considering you have FLAC (or WAV) files, and top notch speakers. Would going from a soundcard from 2 years ago to one from this year make any noticeable difference for listening to music (not recording)?

Do audio programs and games even take advantage of new features on soundcards?

If I'd like to improve my listening experience, would going with better speakers be the way to go? What are the bottlenecks besides the audio tracks themselves being encoded at a low quality?

Home Share on One Computer with Two ...

We have one computer in our house with two user accounts. I have an iTunes account and my husband has his own. Due to many moved music files and whatnot, it is very annoying and difficult to try to find songs from his library to add to mine using the Add File (or Folder) to Library link in the iTunes file menu. I am unable to access some of the songs currently in my library because he moved some of his files and my iTunes can't locate them any longer. I was hoping Home Share would solve our problem, but can't get it to work. Is it hopeless for me because we technically only have one computer? Is there an easier way for me to add some of his songs to my library without searching through our five or six different iTunes library folders on multiple hard drives?

We have both enabled Home Share on our individual user accounts, but do not have the Home Share icon appearing in our iTunes side bar.

My shopping cart contained about 5 dozen songs and albums I have intended to purchase when I had the means.

iTunes will not play back select songs ...

I recently downloaded iTunes 9 and it seems to be working all right so far. My only problem is that there are certain songs in my library that will not play. They won't play when clicked on and are skipped over when part of a playlist. These songs have played with previous versions of iTunes, although the problem has persisted since one of the last updates for iTunes 8 (not sure exactly which).

The only thing these songs have in common are that they are singular additions, not ones I've added from the Store or a complete CD. And there are other songs that are singular additions, not from the Store or complete CD, that will still play. As far as I can tell, the vast majority of these are in mp3 format.

So my dearest laptop is broken and I cannot open itunes or do pretty much anything to be honest. I have just bought a netbook to tide me over for now, and need to get all my music on to the new itunes on the new netbook - only half of my music has been backed up elsewhere.

All the guides I've read telling you how to get music from your ipod back on to a new itunes involve using the OLD itunes, which in this case isn't an option.

Aside from wanting to have my music on my netbook (so that I can back it up properly next time!), I also want to be able to add new music to my ipd - but as I unde3rstand, if I were to sync new music from new itunes on to ipod, I would end up having to delete all 2000 tracks on ipod currently and start all over again?

How to prevent podcasts in playlists ...

This isn't about the iPhone podcast-in-playlist syncing issues (although it may be related to underlying issues?). I'm almost 100% certain that it used to be the case that if I put a podcast episode in a playlist it acted the same as explicitly marking that podcast "do not auto-delete". As long as it was in a playlist, even if that podcast's settings about what episodes to keep would have chosen to remove it, it still stuck around.

This was a very convenient way for me to tag podcasts I wanted to listen to later -- I didn't have to right click and mark "Do Not Auto-Delete" and they'd all be in one playlist (that incidentally could also be synced to the iPhone) and I wouldn't have to manually mark them or look for them in the entire list of all podcasts' episodes. Now with iTunes 9 it seems that iTunes doesn't care if old podcasts are in a playlist -- it will delete them anyway.

Is there any way to revert to the previous behavior? I don't want to mark podcasts' settings Never Delete (especially things like Talk of the Nation which have multiple episodes per day -- I like that it will automatically clean up anything I haven't playlisted) and nor do I want to explicitly mark everything I want to keep "Do not auto-delete".

I upgraded my iTunes 8.1 to iTunes 9 today and after the upgrade, I tried to install the update 3.1.1 for my iPod Touch 2nd Gen but when I tried to update I got an error (which I don't remember).

However the update was unsuccessful so I tried to restore my iPod which resulted in "an unknown error (13)".

Then I read the description of the update and I noticed that the update was adding support for iTunes 9.
So I downgraded to iTunes 8.1 and tried to restore

Incomplete Song Play ...

I recently downloaded iTunes 9. It stops playing a song and skips to another in the playlist for no apparent reason. There is no pattern to the song it cuts short or how far it goes into the song before moving to the next. I re-downloaded "9" and restarted everything to no avail! HELP!!! This *****.

One of my radio categories disappeared? ...

I'm not even sure what I did. I have iTunes 9 and was about to click on my favorite radio station and all of a sudden, the category (Folk) is no longer there. (As in, it was there 5 minutes ago, and now it is not.) Restarting iTunes did not help. This particular station doesn't make it easy to add a URL manually and I would like to listen to it in iTunes rather than in my browser, so I'm not sure what I did or how to get it back?

New sorting question ...

Hi,

I know that one can modify how the artists should be sort out, say how "The Beatles" will be displayed as such in the artists column while appearing at the letter "B" instead of "T". Fine, but I still have a few related issues.

You know that some bands actually begin as a solo album from one of their members. For example, I have the "Planet X" album by Derek Sherinian which can be considered as the first album from his band "Planet X". I like the idea that this kind of records could be found under the band name and not the solo artist. So I simply tagged "Planet X" in the "artist for sorting out" info category and it works as intended. However, in other cases, it does not work.

For example I have this "Ambeon" record which is really related to "Ayreon" (Ambeon tracks are ambient variations on Ayreon music). I would like it to be found under the band name "Ayreon". However, when I tagged it "Ayreon" in exactly the same way that I tagged "Planet X" for the Derek Sherinian album, the outcome was different. It worked the wrong way. All Ayreon music is now listed under the "Ambeon" name. At the same time, the alphabetical sorting recognizes it as "Ayreon". So I can see Ambeon listed after "At Vance" or "Artension".

The intended outcome was to have the name Ayreon displayed in the artist column associated with both Ayreon and Ambeon records (listed after At Vance of course). This is really weird, given that it worked properly for several artists. Does someone have an idea?

New company a Legitimate Affiliate for ...

www.blastoffnetwork.com

This website is launching next month but there is a prelaunch phase now that I can participate in but I want to make sure that it is a legitimate company.

I am hoping that somebody in marketing or sales can tell me if the partnership of the affiliate is real.

They are using the iTunes logo and were listed in an article on Cnn.Money so I am thinking it is real but hoping that someone from iTunes can classify.

It appears to be a large Affiliate marketer but I was not aware that companies did that on this scale.

Any help would be awesome.

Ringtones? ...

In the iTunes 9, I can't find where it shows that a song is available for a ringtone. Then, when I went into my library and set it to show ringtone availability in my library, it still doesn't show it...it has the icon for the column that should show the ringtones, but it won't show which songs are.
I tried a song that I had bought a while back to see if I could make it into a ringtone (my friend has it as her ringtone), and it came up with the slice the song to where you want the ringtone to be thing, but the icon didn't come up to show that it was available for ringtone then, either, or for any other song.

Is there anything I can do?...or is this happening to anyone else?

Itunes, Windows, Airport Express and ...

I have sucessfully connected Airport Express to play itunes on my stereo. I am using the FIOS supplies Actiontek M1424WR router. The problem is that when I allow Itunes to play a list or randomly select, it is fine. Without exception, though if I click on a tune listen briefly, click on another etc. after about 4 tunes Itunes freezes. Sometimes it will freeze if I pause a tune. I realize there is a lag in getting the tunes as I am using a library on a shared drive from a desktopcomputer. I am controlling Itunes from a wireless laptop and instruct it to load that library. In other words I am not accessing a shared library. I tried putting the itunes library on an NAS with the same results. I was wondering if the Actiontek is causing an issue. I am not sure that the AE is causing this since it does the same thing when I change to the computer speakers or unplug the AE. Yet, if I use Airfoil, there is no problem at all, and frankly it is looking better by the minute. Does anyone have any ideas? Much appreciated.

iTunes Disc No. Bug..or? ...

Hey,
I just updated my iTunes to the new 9.0, but it seems that the new iTunes ignores the disc no. tag, so when I want to listen to a full double-cd album, it starts with the no. 1 song from disc 1 and then no. 1 from disc 2, instead of 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on, until it reaches disc 2 and starts from the beginning of disc 2 then.

I apologize for my confusing description, I hope it makes sense, but I doubt I'm the only one in with this issue. Is there any way to fix this? Or do I have to wait for a new update?

Do iTunes movie rentals work on video ...

I just rented and downloaded Gran Torino. I hooked my 80Gb iPod up to the computer and tried to drag the movie from my Rented Movies tab of my Library to my iPod, but it won't transfer.

I googled this and was able to find links talking about the video iPod not being compatible with iTunes Movie Rentals (what?!) but they were all links from 2008. I figured Apple would be smart enough to fix this by now, but I'm not sure how to do it, if it's possible.

Any ideas? Thanks!
