Support for itunes 8?

Thanks for the great app. Small suggestion though: It would be nicer not to write Not Found on the song lyrics during mass updates when the actual lyrics can't be identified. I have tons of songs with it now, that I will have to write a simple application to remove it.

the lyrics that doesn't found mark as "not found". in the future you maybe will have this song's lyric, but if i try to update it again (i have more then 9000 song so i use the automatic mode) the importer will skip on this song. any idea?

Great add on. It is a pain that it stops and waits for input every time it encounters an error, though. Perhaps it could generate a report at the end with a list of songs not found, errors, etc. Also, as mentioned above, many songs now have "not found" embedded. Maybe an option to remove that entry could be added in the future? Thanks for the good work.

iLyrics has support for iTunes 8. If you are having trouble, please follow this guide:

http://code.google.com/p/itsfv/wiki/FAQ#I_upgraded_iTunes_and_iTSfv_does_not_start_properly_/_getting_&q

The "Not Found" issue is addressed in iTSfv - http://code.google.com/p/itsfv/

iTSfv is an newer addon that includes iLyrics features and much more. I am in the talks with the original developer of iLyrics to officially support that addon here.

It does not work. No lyrics are added. It just says: Last Action: Opened C:\Documents and Settings\alay\My Documents\iTSFv\Settings\

No changes are made to any track.

Basically, proxy authentication is needed (the warning log says this):

"The request failed with HTTP status 407: Proxy Authentication Required."

i tried this, a lot of my tracks got the lyrics but also a lot of them doesn't have but when i manually search for the song lyrics in lyricwiki.com, the lyrics exist in their database. Why is it not added?

Also, I noticed that after validating my tracks it says "does not conform to iTunes Store Standard" what does that mean?

I've got a problem since today i can't import any lyric with ilyrcs the warning log says: "http 502: bad gateway"

But until yestarday it worked very well! why doesn't it work anymore?

i can't import any lyric with ilyrcs the warning log says: "Http 502: bad gateway"

for me too... the same log: "Http 502: bad gateway"

Guess what. HTTP: 502: Bad Gateway for me too.

Same here

Wow, what a great little piece of software! I really think there should be more fanfare about it. I don't mean to shoot myself in the foot, but, why don't you charge for it? The only thing I would ask for would be to incorporate it into iTunes or Explorer; right-click - Get Lyrics.

Thanks for a cool little bit of functionality that Apple would never bother with.

"Unfortunately, due to licensing restrictions from some of the major music publishers we can no longer return lyrics through the LyricWiki? API (where this application gets some or all of its lyrics).

(Please note: this is not the fault of the developer who created this application, but is a restriction imposed by the music publishers themselves.)"

And with that the program which I loved so much is no more. Is there any way for this program to live on? It was exceptionally good compared to it's competitors and it would be such a pain to manually enter lyrics into each song. It was good while it lasted and for that I thank you.

i'm so pissed off! and it's not just because the program doesn't work anymore.

it's because i bought my ipod 2 days ago: when i came home, i tried this wonderful software with one album or two and it worked great. and i thought to myself: "well, lets add lyrics to the entire library tomorrow". today i run ilyrics through the entire itunes library and sync. now EVERY 'lyric' shows up the restriction message.

if i knew this was coming i would just have done that before! aaarrrgh!

Luckily I already it done for my entire library, unfortunately, I fully intend to acquire more music and lyrics has now become a necessity.

Will this ever be fixed?

What a deception. I paid for the damn music!

Just another example why you should never buy music from the major publishers. Good luck on their chosen path to destroy their businesses with these stupid restrictions. It is more easy to just download illegal copies of the music with lyrics already in the ID3-tags compared to buying the CD then ripping it to your computer (bypassing copy restrictions) and then manually adding lyrics and album art into it. I just don't get the logic behind these stupid restrictions that only work against the paying customers.

I'm not a paying customer but I still get no lyrics :(

is there any way that iLyrics can ignore the lyrics that have copyright restrictions. Maybe add another source?

"Unfortunately, due to licensing restrictions from some of the major music publishers we can no longer return lyrics through the LyricWiki?? API (where this application gets some or all of its lyrics)."

or can someone edit this script so that it only removes the lyrics that have the copyright message: http://ottodestruct.com/itunes/ClearLyrics.txt

Is there another source to try or some file I can change where it retrieves lyrics from? This affects the latest iTSfv 5.60 beta

how about http://lyricsfly.com they have an API @ http://lyricsfly.com/api/

this website also has a lot of resources to use! http://blog.programmableweb.com/2008/02/21/25-music-apis/

Hi, great app , but I have some problems with some spanish lirycs because this app doesn't support accents or ñ

If you are still looking for a working version, check comments 4 and 19. Two versions posted:

http://code.google.com/p/ilyrics/issues/detail?id=51

I'm interested in helping. I'm a newbie (as far as posting / updating comments and code)... Can someone tell me why the source d/l's haven't been updated (i.e. why the need to navigate to FAQs to get the latest source)? I, obviously, haven't completely read terms / conditions. I stumbled upon this after searching for a lyrics updated for Windows and since I'm a developer I'm inquiring. Thx.
