How can I stabilise large transfers of data & retain full smart playlists?

Hi,
I hope somebody can help. Now that I have more than 20,000 songs in my iTunes, all of which I want to sync, my ipod classic 160gb goes into the 'infinite reset loop', or, when occasionally appearing to sync correctly, ends up with 0 songs, 0 video, etc. on the iPod.
This is despite supposedly having some 22GB of unused space.
I assumed it was by 2-and-a-half-year-old iPod succumbing to old age and bought a replacement, but the problem occurs on the new machine too.
I have tried various solutions from the Discussion forum, e.g.:
1) procedures for checking for hard-drive errors
2) restoring to factory settings and then re-syncing
3) I found one helpful tip for creating a new smart playlist to introduce the files in stages, which is supposed stabilise the transfer of large amounts of data. While this was helpful, and appeared to stabilise the data, I was left without all my smart playlists (except the one I'd created for this exercise). Transferring back to Syncing the entire library, so as to regain all my smart playlists, merely made the iPod unstable again.
I really want to be able to access my (extensive) smart playlists: I'm presuming it's the very amount of these that is contributing to the problem. Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks!

I did read all the data using the read from text file vi and displayed it all in a strinbg indicator (reading in x number of bytes/lines at a time)... How can I no plot this text/string data?
8GB won't really help you unless you also use LabVIEW 64bit. 2GB should be OK.
To graph it, you need to decimate it as shown in the link I gave you earlier. Most likely, your monitor has only a few thousand pixels across, so it is not worth to display more points than that. It won't look any different if done right!
Can you show us your code? Can you attach a small sample file that has the same structure, just with less data?
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

  • How can I edit large amount of data using Acrobat X Pro

    Hello all,
    I need to edit a catalog that contains large amount of data - mainly the product price. Currently I can only export the document into excel file and then paste the new price onto the catalog using Acrobat X Pro one by one, which is extremely time-consuming. I am sure there's a better way to make this faster while keeping the accuracy of the data. Thanks a lot in advance if any one's able to help! 

    Hi Chauhan,
    Yes I am able to edit text/image via tool box, but the thing is the catalog contains more than 20,000 price data and all I can do is deleteing the orginal price info from catalog and replace it with the revised data from excel. Repeating this process over 20,000 times would be a waste of time and manpower... Not sure if I make my situation clear enough? Pls just ask away, I really hope to sort it out, Thanks! 

  • How can I copy large amount of data between two HD ?

    Select the files/folders on one HD and drag & drop onto the other HD. The copied ones will overwrite anything with the same names.

  • How can I change the order of songs in a smart playlist?

    Hi there,
    I have a question about smart playlists.
    I have a smart playlist where all songs rated 5 stars are ordered in descending order, meaning the latest additions first. That works well in iTunes and I can rearrange the songs there without a problem.
    But when I start the iPod on my iPhone the order of songs in this playlist is always the same. In my case the latest songs are always put last no matter how I sort the songs in iTunes. I tried to delete and create a new smart playlist but the result is always the same.
    Is there a solution?
    Thanks for your answers....

  • I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have the same question. It seems that Adobe is almost impossible to contact (I ended up here at the forums to ask the same question).
    I will never buy another Adobe product again if I can get another program to replace it. If this is customer service then it is NON EXISTENT!
    I notice that your question has not been answered and why should you have to get the information from a forum? I know of no other company that makes you do this for simple product information.
    NOT HAPPY with this version of arrogant customer service (nor am I happy about renting Photoshop products into the future - it is just a money grab in my opinion). I will be voting with my feet and going elsewhere in future.

    How big of a file you can send over an email, is not determined by Apple, but rather by your email service provider.  For example, if you have a Gmail email address, they let you send up to 25 MB of data
    http://support.google.com/mail/answer/8770?hl=en.
    To find out how big of a file your email service provider will let you send, do a google search for "your email provider maximum file size".
    If you need to send larger files, look into something like "Drop Box" -
    https://www.dropbox.com.

    You can't. There is no memory card. It uses flash memory that's soldered to the logic board. If you didn't back it up, your data is gone.

  • How can we update the last synchronization date and time..on SUP in sccm 2012 R2

    Hi,
        Can you any one please guide me how can i update the last  synchronization date & time in SUP on SCCM2012 r2 , some how its updated as future date and when ever i try to synch the SUP with disconnected WSUS its shows in the wsyncmgr.log 
    "Wakeup for a polling cycle " and  " Wakeupby inbox drop" and "Wakeup by SCF change"  
    Thanks

    You'll probably have to call CSS on this one as this not normal by any means. The messages you noted above are completely normal but if that's all you are seeing then there's an issue.
    Have you reviewed wcm.log and wsusctrl.log?

  • How can you save an app's data?

    Hi, how can you save an app's data? For example, if I want to switch some applications on my iPod with those were on my iTunes Apps Library, iTunes will force to remove the apps that was on my device and sync the apps that I want onto my iPod. But once the app is removed from my iPod, its data will be erased too, so, for example months later, I want to put them back onto my iPod, I will lose all the apps data and games progress. So, I just want to know the way that people save their apps data.

    Yo can't. apps are locked to the account thatpurchased them and in-app purchases can only be mad with the account that originally purchased the app.
    You will have to recover use of the first account

    You don't need iTunes for that. Simply connect the iPhone to the PC where it will be recognized as a camera. You can then select the photos you wish to transfer, transfer them, and delete them.

    How can I verify that my App data is actually stored in the iCloud. I can see and access my notebook, contacts etc. on the iCloud website, and I can see my photos in a folder on my Windows-based desktop compter (iCloud/Photostream). But no app data.
    With Dropbox, I can actually see all of my stored files. With iCloud, it seems, I'm supposed to just trust that Apple has my back. Short of deliberately trashing my app data and then attempting a restore, is there no way to check the data?

    You can't access them on Windows (unless you have iCloud enabled Windows programs) and I don't think any are, yet.
    iCloud data is accessed via Apps/Programs, the Windows programs vendors will have to step up (just to make it worse Microsoft have not yet enabled their Mac programs, such as Office yet) I doubt that iCloud access is much of a priority for them, complain to MS, when enough Windows users complain maybe they'll do something.
