Manually updating

ok so that helped but how do i manually update my ipod...i am able to import the cd but where do i go from there?

You cannot copy from the iPod to your PC with iTUnes even when its on manual. you will have to use 3rd party program to get your songs (Bought songs and CD songs you bought and ripped to your PC). go here and read the iLounge artical to see how http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/

I'm trying to add a playlist manually to my iPhone 4. It won't let me because it's trying to delete all of the music currently on my iPhone. Is there any way to prevent this from happening in order to start manually updating it?

Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.

Cannot delete songs from iPod when in manual update mode

Hi
I am using iTunes 7 and i'm trying to delete some songs just from my iPod and i have always used the manual update option.
The problem is when i go into the songs on my iPod and go into a playlist and try to delete the songs within a playlist it won't let me. BUT when i search for those same songs within my iPod library (library shows all songs on the iPod) i can delete them.
So my problem is i cannot delete songs within playlists just from my iPod. I know that deleting the playlist on the left hand side navigation bar will still keep the songs there, it will only delete the actual playlist.
Also when i select a song(s) the edit menu is all greyed out except for copy.
Can anyone help please.

Try using the key combination Shift-Delete when deleting from a song from a playlist, this will delete it from the library as well.

How can I switch from Automatic to Manual update without losing songs?

I have on my ipod songs from another computer, however I'm afraid to plug it into my computer because my computer is set to automatic update for my ipod. Is there a way for me to switch my ipod to manual update without losing songs on my ipod when plugging it in? thanks.

Here is what you do:
Open iTunes.
Plug in your ipod.
hold control and shift at the same time. this stops your ipod from updating automatically. Hold this until your ipod is finished docking.
Then go to edit>preferences>ipod
then change the setting from update automatically to update manually.

Turning back on the "manual update" feature in iTunes

Ok, there's two iPods, mine and my sisters, and we both use the same iTunes. My iPod is set up to update automatically whenever I connect it to the computer and hers is set so that it doesnt automatically update when it's connected, but I just drag and drop certain songs into her iPod.
Now, I tried putting a new video on her iPod and in the videos tab of her iPod in iTunes I clicked on upload all the videos, it wouldnt let me drag on drop.
This has changed the settings on the iPod and now whenever i connect it to the computer it starts updating the iPod with my library.
Is there any way of putting this setting back to the manual update function? As it is im scared to leave it connected for too long because i dont want it to erase songs she has on her iPod that i no longer have on my iTunes.
Cheers people, thanks for any info you can give me.

Just a thought - connect your own ipod, let it sync automatically and then change the itunes sync setting to manual. Maybe that changes the next syncing of your sister's ipod to manual as well?

Using a second computer with an ipod set to manual update

I want to prevent my ipod 60GB video which is set to manual update on my G5 from being updated when I plug it into my powerbook. The powerbook assumes the ipod is available for auto update. How do I mount the iPod without iTunes automatically replacing its contents. I can't "preset" iTunes in its preferences to treat the iPod as a manual drive as it just says: "no iPod connected. As soon as I attach the iPod the auto update starts. Are there keystrokes to interrupt the update so I can set the iPod preferences on my Powerbook?
Thanks

Hold down the ⌥ and ⌘ keys while connecting your iPod. Keep them down until iTunes has opened and your iPod shows in the Source list.

Can't manually update shuffle on two computers.

I have my music on two computers. One is my Mac at home; the other is a Windows machine at work (all my own music). My computer at home was originally used to load some songs onto my Suffle. Sometimes I download a podcast at work and want to listen to it on my way home from my Shuffle, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to manually load a single song onto the Shuffle at work without redisignating the work computer as the computer associated with this iPod and erasing all the songs.
Nowhere can I find the "manual update" option that everyone talks about in the software. It just isnt' there!
Of course, I know I'm missing something, which is why I'm posting to the forum.

I think I finally found the answer to my question from reading several other posts on this matter. I've learned that the Shuffle is different than at least some other iPods in that it is NOT able to be loaded with songs from more than one computer. It can only be linked to a single computer, unlike other iPods which actually can be loaded with songs from multiple computers.
At least I feel better, knowing that I wasn't overlooking something that was there.

Go from manually update to auto-update without losing songs?

I was trying to delete some podcasts from my ipod, and was following the directions on the help menu which told me to go to preferences and choose manual update, then delete. I tried it, and it didn't work. When I decided to go back to auto update, I received a message that everything on my ipod would be deleted and the update would be just what is on the itunes on that machine. I have more than one computer, and have itunes on each one. There are different songs on each computer. If I go to manually update on this computer, it will erase the songs I've put on from other computers. All this and I still have the unwanted podcasts. Can anyone help me to go back to auto-update without losing songs? If worse comes to worst I guess I'll have to update, lose the songs, and then re-update at my other computers. thanks.

Afraid that's not possible. If you go to auto-update, the iPod gets cleared and replaced with the current contents of the iTunes library.

Change logs not working for manual update modify/delete statements.

Hi experts,
                 My requirement is to display the change logs for a few custom z tables.The log data changes is selected in technical settings of the table.When any changes are made to the table using sm30 the changes are logged.
My requirement also displays an alv grid which allows the users to edit/insert/delete   entries in the table.
In this case the change logs are not getting recorded(ie whenever the user manually updates or inserts a row into the table the change docs are not getting stored).
My code works like this,
Whenever the user chooses a custom table and selects the display change log button i transter the control of my abap program to the standard rsvtprot program(sap std. pgm to display change logs).
sample code:
elseif sscrfields-ucomm eq c_chgdoc.
    refresh:r_seltab.
    clear:r_seltab.
    r_seltab-sign   = 'I'.
    r_seltab-option = 'EQ'.
    r_seltab-low      = w_tab.
    append r_seltab.
Call the sap standard program rsvtprot via selection screen
by passing the table name and display grid parameters.
    submit rsvtprot via selection-screen
                      with cusobj   in r_seltab
                      with alv_grid eq c_x
                      and return.
Is there any way by which i can extend the change logs functionality for the changes made using the alv grid?
Please help me out.

Hi Anuraag,
In TM you should open the transaction /SCMTMS/ZONE. Here you select the zone you would like to modify and you execute the changes you would like to make.

Need manual updates for 9.2 and 9.55 to do clean reinstall of acrobat 9.0 pro from cd

I just did a new nstallation of acrobat V9.0 professional from CD:
I need a link to the master incremental update for 9.2 and the master 9.55 incremental update that goes from V9.2 to V9.55
I am looking for a master baseline release.
My reinstall is on an old XPSP3 machine. When acrobat professional 9.0 goes away I will still need the incremental update from V9.0 to V9.55
I do not need to put acrobat X or acrobat XI on this machine. A new acrobat X or acrobat XI license is for a new machine.
I keep all my master and incremental updates in archival. That way i can rebuild my machine.
This is the way it is normally done.
the autoinstaller jumped me from V9.0 on CD to V9.2 and from V9.2 to V9.55.
I dont' see master releases in the table that do the same thing.
there were only 2 updates.
normally support would just send me a link out-of-band. i understand I need to send the request thru the forum
many thanks!

Most of the manual updates are not cummulative. It sounds like you did the updates from the help menu (and many of those are cummulative -- don't know why they are not available). You may be able to find the updates you used on your harddrive -- I have seen them before, but don't remember where, probably the users folder or such.

How can I manually update Firefox? Auto updates fail and end up making my computer hang for 10 minutes on startup.

Firefox, after starting up my computer, fails the autoupdate every day. It leaves my computer hanging much longer than I would enjoy. I would like to know how I can manually update firefox and/or prevent future issues.

Audit log + manual update + specify download location

Hi all,
I'm evaluating whether we can use Java Web Start for our new product, for geographically distributed software deployment.
I've the following questions that I could not find answers in the official documentation:
- Can it support manual update? i.e. is there any way I can put a button on the application UI so that instead of checking latest version on every program start, the end-user can manually initiate software update.
- Can I extend it to support audit log? i.e. we need to keep track of which client upgrade to which version in a centralized database (as audit trail), and when such update occurred. Can we do this?
- Some of our end-user has no access to local filesystem, they only have access to dedicated shared network drive, can we customize Web Start so that it download and save the new version to a specific location, instead of C:\temp?
- We have a few jar files for the application. How can we ensure that all jar files are either updated, or not updated at all? i.e. kind of transaction concept.
- One of the jar files contains some configuration files, which need to be expanded in exploded format (to allow runtime change of configuration options). How can we do that?
Thanks a million.

to keep track of which client upgrade to which
version in a centralized database (as audit trail),
and when such update occurred. Can we do this?only by controling a servlet or jsp page that generates the jnlp file and keeps track of what requests are made for the jnlp file and the resources of the app. Java Web Start itself runs on the client machine.

download and save the new version to a specific
location, instead of C:\temp?webstart itself only downloads into its own cache (by default on windows XP at c:\Doccuments and settings\<user name>\Application Data\Sun\java\deployment\cache\javaws
this cache location can be configured.
in version 6.0 we will have capability to disable caching, but curent version must have a cache.

- We have a few jar files for the application. How
can we ensure that all jar files are either updated,
or not updated at all? i.e. kind of transaction

Java web Start currently checks timestamps of all downloaded jars before launching application, and will only update all or none.
- One of the jar files contains some configuration
files, which need to be expanded in exploded format
(to allow runtime change of configuration options).
How can we do that?If you must access these resources as files, you will have to extract them using ClassLoader.getresourceAsStream(), and then write them to disk yourself.

How do I set iTunes to manually update songs without connecting iPod first?

Hi. I just got a new computer and downloaded iTunes. The User Guide says that when you connect the iPod, iTunes automatically updates all songs in your iTunes and deletes songs that are not in iTunes. As far as I can see by reading the User's Guide, iPod has to be connected to change the setting to "manual update". I already have an iPod with songs in it that are not on the iTunes that I just downloaded. I'm afraid that if I connect my iPod, it will erase the songs already in my iPod because of the default "automatic update" setting. Does anyone know how I can change the setting to "manual update" BEFORE I connect the iPod to the computer?
Thanks for your help!

It is not an Adobe problem. You have a OS permissions problem. You can try to correct this by using Disk Utility to Repair Permissions. It is in the First Aid area of Disk Utility.

Sync Play count between iPod & iTunes when manually update selected

Hello,
I use manual updating on iTunes simply because I have so much music, it wont fit onto my iPod, so I manually select the songs I want on.
I have been reading and find that doing this stops the iPod and iTunes from updating the Play count and Last played. Doesnt this sound a bit daft?
People have played suggestions such as creating certain playlists that are automatically synced with the iPod, but my songs are all in playlists.
Is there any addon or way that you can get the iPod and iTunes to automatically sync that part so it updates? Without turning on automatic syncing?
Thanks

Playcounts only sync if you are syncing. They don't if you're manually managing your music. Sorry.
