My iTunes library shows empty ratings and dates played for tracks that iMatch marks as eligible. I haven't downloaded any of them yet. Can I restore this data after downloading? Or is it a regrettably inevitable part of the process? I use iTunes 10.6.1 on a late '08 MBP with OS 10.6.8.

iTunes (11.3.1) keeps deleting episodes of podcasts when I auto-sync podcasts on my computer with my iPod (Classic 160 GB.). However, this only happens with some podcasts. This is in spite of the fact that I've checked all available boxes in the standard settings, and the particular settings for each specific podcast, as "Do not delete any played episodes."
Some of the podcasts no longer exist, so if they disappear from my computer or iPod they're just gone forever.
why does icloud in my itunes say a song is not eligible for icloud?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently got a MacBook Pro after having an iPhone and iPad since last year. I have iCloud set up on all devices to share calendar dates. However, when I input an event on iCal on the MacBook everything is fine and the event shows up on my iPhone and iPad calendars, but when I input an appointment on my iPhone, it will not update to the iCal on MacBook.

I don't understand how this happened, but I don't have a Time Machine backup because I have never had enough space to back everything up. Is there any way to get my Address Book back? I have searched for .vcf and .abbu files, but cannot find what I need to restore.
I set up iCloud between my iMac and my iPad. Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would delete everything off of my iMac in favor of the few contacts I had on the iPad.
I saved a Garageband file to iCloud and now most of the tracks are missing. Where did they go?

I have an Early-2008 MacBook Pro. Purchased it in July of 2008. I have a feeling I'm not eligible, but not quite sure to be honest with you.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am in process of moving iTunes from a Windows XP computer to an iMac that is networked with a Time Machine. I allowed Home Sharing on both computers, which allowed me to copy all songs from the Windows to iMac. I then send myself an e-mail of my Library.xls file, which moved all my playlists. So I have all my songs, album art, and playlists. All I need to do now is to move my song ratings.

So, I've been an iTunes user for a decade and I've lost album art here and there between iTunes upgrades but I just opened iTunes and noticed that ALL of my star ratings are gone.
Has anyone else had this problem before? Is there any non-Time Machine based solution? I'm obviously livid as I have a library of 49,000 songs that I'd rated over the past ten years and if I can't get them back, I don't see why I would ever trust this program again.

Also, I tried to add Snow Leopard to my basket by clicking the link "If you purchased your computer directly from the Apple Online Store..." and it asks for me to sign in. When I have it shows an empty basket.
I am going to be reformatting my hard drive soon and I remember last time that I reformatted iTunes didn't export my ratings with my music. I have read other places about creating playlists with the song ratings so all songs of a specific rating are in that playlist and then export the playlist. I would like to know if this would be a good way to do this. Also I was wondering if there is any way to retain the dates the songs were added to the library, but I am mostly concerned with the ratings.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy iPhone 5c used to sync with my old Windows laptop via iTunes and both devices held all music information on them such as iTunes rating, playlist information and the selected songs to be synced (there are more songs on my iTunes on my laptop than my iPhone). All of these songs are also saved on an external hard drive. None were purchased through iTunes.
When my old Windows laptop died, it died abruptly so I did not have chance to consolidate the iTunes media folder. I have now bought a new MacBook Air to replace my old Windows laptop.
When I plug in my iPhone 5c to my new MacBook Air, when iTunes offers to sync it advises all information on my iPhone will be lost.
Is it possible to transfer the ratings and playlists from my iPhone to iTunes on my MacBook Air, at least for the corresponding songs that exist on my iPhone? Note I have the original songs on an external hard drive so the song files themselves do not have to copy across. All the files in the iPhone exist in the external hard drive.

Before moving to a new Mac I backed up my old itunes music library.xml file and manually added all of my music files to itunes on my new mac.
Does anybody know a way of getting my old information such as ratings, number of plays etc from the old library into the new one?

Am I the only one who strips out the language support on my desktop computer just because? I leave about 5 languages in it but for my work computer, I am never going to use any language besides English to operate in. So why don't I do this?
Are there more people out there that strip this stuff out?
Started my system this morning and MobileMe seems to have deleted large quantities of my emails, including several most recent ones that I had yet to reply to. I thought this had happened before, but blamed my editing of email accounts when MobileMe became active. But this is definite, they were there last night and gone now. Not what I expect from an email service.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing the Finder in 10.5.8, pressing Cmd-F to get to the Search window. I want to look for jpeg files created during December of 2008. I first specify file type = image, press the + to add another constraint, choose "creation date before" . . . today's date comes up by default, with little up/down arrows at the right to allow changes. Well, the arrows do nothing, and I can't edit the date string directly. The only change I'm able to make is when holding down the Alt key, which allows me to use the little up/down arrows to cycle through the months (but not days or years).

For some reason probably the result of mistakes in synching, I have multiple entries of dates mostly birthdays showing in my iPad and MacMini. I can delete then one at a time,but with 156 repeats in one case, it becomes tedious. Where can I find the fields to delete the extra dates?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to sort them by the date I think they were taken, so I need to change the dates of the files to specific dates. I want to be able to do groups at a time. Like all photos taken on a birthday, and for pictures I do not know the date for, dated to the date the person in them died.
When I click on a group of photos Aperture changes the dates in a relative fashion rather than an absolute fashion. IE If I scanned the images that were taken on the same day but were scanned 2 months apart, the date that appears on one is correct, the other 2 months off. I would like to change the dates to specific day in time.
