ANIME MONSTROSITY posted:is it possible for itunes to not double all the music files? Anything you put into the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder gets moved into iTunes instead of copied, so you can try that. I've never dumped a shitload into it at once though.

I've decided I want to keep a local copy of my giant music collection, just in case. Right now I have everything on the Match cloud. I set iTunes to download everything last night. Its certainly doing that, but I've noticed I'm getting a random mix of mp3 and m4a. Why would it do that, and how can I get them all as mp3? I'm not seeing the option in preferences or anything. I'm on the current windows version, if it matters.

Anything you put in match gets converted to m4a, so anything you download later will be in m4a. I'm guessing any mp3s you are seeing are songs that you already had locally. There is no option to get mp3s out of match, since it attempts to just match your music to the copies of stuff they have available in the iTunes store, which is all m4a. edit: actually if it fails to match the song to an iTunes store version it will upload whatever format you have, so in that case some of your songs could be downloaded as mp3s. astr0man fucked around with this message at 16:26 on Sep 9, 2014 |

OHhh, iTunes 11.4 just popped up for me. I wonder what terrible features it will introduce, or is it just iOS 8 support.

You'll have to wait for 12.0 to get your terrible features.

So for you podcast enthusiasts who had iTunes on Windows crash relentlessly (esp. on startup) after 11.3 -- On the library/podcasts screen, click settings button, then change refresh from default (every hour) to 'manually'. All my crashes went away. Win 8.1 x64.

As of 11.4 it only works in safe mode for me, but I'll try that podcast setting.

I really want to delete the new U2 album from my iTunes but it hasn't shown up for me yet. Am I spared or will it appear when I least expect it?

I'm pretty happy with 12, they seem to have made it easier to find some of the stuff they've been hiding in recent releases, and they made the podcast section much easier to use (they finally let you organize the podcast view in alpha order which makes it useable for me finally).

Jeherrin posted:Are we talking about iTunes 12, in the public beta, here? Because it looks like they've axed the view options to sort albums (in the cover/album view) by artist > year, meaning that half of my artists are showing up with the albums all out of release order, in spite of the fact that they all have years assigned to them if I hit 'get info'. Bumping this again from the last page, but sub-sorting in albums view is back in the current 12.0 beta. Still not sure why it disappeared in the last version but I guess they were planning on getting rid of the "view options" thing anyways so maybe thats why.

How are people getting that album? I don't want it, but I keep checking to see if it made it into my library, as I keep seeing people talking about it. I don't see it in my purchases, or anywhere in my library. The article also says it doesn't download automatically, so I'm confused on how people are getting this album.

Go to Itunes Store > Purchased, then click the cloud/download all button.

I had the same issue until I signed out of the iTunes Store and signed back in. I'm not sure why that fixed it, but it immediately showed up on all my devices as soon as I signed out and back in on one of them.

This is a very specific request, but does anyone know of a way to get a bandcamp purchased CD downloaded onto an iPhone...without connecting to a PC? My computer is pulling the 'can't recognize contents' poo poo and I'm drawing a blank on how to get half my music library onto my phone. Home Sharing doesn't seem to do it, but would iTunes Match? Is that a streaming service or can I actually download the stuff?

Band Camp also has an iOS app that allows you to stream and download iirc. Wouldn't work with the stock music app, but the option is there.

I have two issues which make me regret upgrading to iOS8, as this has been happening since the upgrade. 1) My plays are incorrect. Like, if I have a blank song and play it once, when I sync it'll add 1 to the total. If I play the song again, it shows as having three plays when I sync. If I play the song a third time, it shows six plays. If I reset plays, and play the song again on my phone, on sync, it says four. What the? I don't know if this is an iTunes thing, as I had updated to the latest version before the iOS8 change and never had that problem. 2) I get this more often than not when syncing, a "The iphone "Dennis Eckersly's I-Phone cannot be synched". An unknown error occured (-54)" when trying to connect". It does actually sync but that error shouldn't be there. Any ideas on how to fix those issues?

Any solution for songs stuck in 'Waiting' status with iTunes Match? I'm running 11.4 under 10.9.5, nothing weird. I didn't just stop working at some point, I have random albums stuck in 'Waiting' between others that I added after that were processed successfully. Google has nothing I haven't already tried (including the convert to AAC trick). This is affecting production.

It was an iTunes issue before, but now I'm thinking it's on the device. It's like it's storing the number of times something is played separate from the actual play count, but not clearing that number out every time a sync is performed. I'm finding I have to switch to manually manage my stuff, delete the stuff that's been played in between syncs, then un-checking the manually manage box to get the deleted items back on my phone.

Yeah, I just tried yesterday with my iPod Classic, and those play counts only counted as one. I wonder if taking all the media off and resyncing will do anything, or turning off Wifi sync.

I can check to see if it re-enabled itself somehow as I turned it off. EDIT: I had restored my phone when I saw that issue, cleared out all the media and synced it all back on after the restore. Didn't work. My Wifi sync is off too. On top of that, I also updated to iOS 8.0.2, and it didn't fix the issue. Armitage fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Sep 27, 2014 |

In the last few days I had to entirely wipe the iPhone because I was trying to be a little too aggressive with the phone. I ended up restoring the phone, restoring from a backup, and then resyncing the media. I just tried some music, and it only counted as one play.
