Songs minutes display - please help!

Let me see if I can explain my question...I've been teaching Spinning at my gym for a couple of years now. For the songs I use, I've added with information about the song in the title to help me teach. For example, we may do something different during each chorus in a song. So if a song has 3 chorus' at :33, 1:45, 2:10, I add that at the end of the title and the information scrolls through as I am teaching. It keeps me from having to keep a notebook with my teaching notes. I have an ipod classic. We also now have an ipod nano. My ipod classic *counts the song up* - it starts at :00 and goes to the end. Our newer nano *counts the song down*. Does anyone know how I can change the newer ipod to count up like the older one does?? *PLEASE HELP*

Doesn't it count DOWN on the lower right corner and count UP on the lower left corner (below the progress bar)? I don't have a nano, so maybe it's different.

  • I just updated my itunes and now I am unable to open any of my songs... please help me.

    i just updated my itunes and now I am unable to open any of my songs... please help me. Every time i click it, it says it cannot be read because it was made by a newer version of itunes.

    Try resetting the Nano with it still connected to a high powered USB 2.0 port on your PC. To reset the iPod, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • I have an iPhone 4S that won't charge. I have tried with 5 different cords and 2 wall plug but it won't connect. It will work if I plug and unplug my phone for 20 minutes. Please help me!

    I have an iPhone 4S that won't charge. I have tried with 5 different cords and 2 wall plug but it won't connect. It will work if I plug and unplug my phone for 20 minutes. Please help me! Do I need a new phone or is this something that can be fixed?

    Clean out the charging port--make sure there's no dust or debris in there.  If that fails to solve the issue, bring the phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • Rendering an error-display - Please help!!

    Hi everyone,
    I'm about to give up. I use the Orion 1.5.2 appserver for EJB, JSP and servlets. It works great and is the best appserver i've tried so far. Except for one thing:
    As it seems, Orion doesn't have a custom error-page. When I invoke 'response.sendError(...)', Internet Explorer receives the status-code and displays its own error-page ("this site could not be reached"). Netscape displays some similiar page, showing the status-code and the attached message. But I want to show a custom error-page, that show more information about the message, and looks good as well. How can I accomplish that? I've looked through the forum and browsed through the documentation of Orion... nothing...
    Ohh, and one more thing... Does anyone know how to make orion use another database than HSQL for EJB's? I want to use MySQL with the MySQL J/Connector.
    Please help me!
    Nille

    Finally!!!
    Thank you very much.
    Would it be possible to accomplish something like this:
    <error-page>         
         <error-code>*</error-code>
         <location>/error.jsp</location>   
    </error-page>and the corresponding JSP:
    <%
       int errorCode = ((Integer)request.getParameter("status-code");
       String message = (String)request.getParameter("message");
    %>
    <HTML>
       <HEAD>
          <TITLE>Error <%= errorCode %></TITLE>
       </HEAD>
       <BODY>
          Status-code: <%= errorCode %><br>
          Cause: <%= message %>
       </BODY>
    </HTML>So that I have a generic error-page that renders all sendError invokations, and can fetch the status-code and the attached message.
    If a ServletException occures and I have a page that handles this exception, can I reach the exception from the error-page? Something like request.getAttribute("exception"), or something like that.
    Thank you alot for answering!

  • Burning songs from itunes Please Help !! Help help Help!!

    Is there a way i can burn songs right from itunes onto a jump drive ?!
    please help me
    or could i compress them when i burn them onto itunes so i could fit like more then 20 songs on a disk?!

    You should just be able to drag and drop the songs from iTunes to the flash drive.
    Unless your songs are in a lossless format (Apple lossless, AIFF, .wav), they are already compressed. You could always convert them to a lower bit rate (downsample) but you would lose sound quality.

  • Phone call becomes garbled to other person after about a minute into call, but I can hear them clearly.  I stood by a tower with full signal and was still hung up on because I couldn't be heard after about a minute.  Please help.

    This is a recent occurrence.  I either initiate or receive calls, and about a minute into them, the person cannot hear me because it becomes so garbled to them, but I can hear them clearly.  I was able to make one call that was completely clear, and that was tonight, but it was one only.  I've done a master reset, but I have not deleted all data, as I'm afraid to do so and lose pictures.  The only other option I supposedly have is to replace the phone.  Please help.  What could this be?

  • Playback loop dropping out  before end of song!!  Please help!!

    Just started using mainstage 2 (latest version). I'm trying to set up some playback to perform live with, but for some strange reason, some of the playback stems always drop out before the end of the song. (usually 2 t 4 bars before ending.) It happens every time.. and on every songs...
    Could someone please help.. I really can't figure this one out!
    Thanx
    I'm not looping the playbacks and I'm syncing on the average about 4 playback plugins song..
    I'm using an Axiom pro 61 as controller
    My system is a 13in MacBook Pro 2010 model with OS 10.6.6

    In fact, you can add markers directly in Mainstage - open up the playback plug-in, put your cursor exactly on the point of the waveform where you want your marker and control-click to open the pop-up menu from which you can add, rename and remove markers. Click/drag on the waveform to move to the required location.
    To sync, just set the tempo of each song at the set or patch level (others have noted problems getting everything to sync properly, so to avoid this problem I usually just create an audio file of my click track and load it up into a separate playback channel - this also makes it easier to route it separately to your FOH output).
    As for tempo change, well, I'm afraid MS2 doesn't support tempo change as such, although if you vary the tempo of you backings in PT and bounce down a stem, then that is just an audio file, and when MS2 plays it back it will play as recorded (ie with tempo changes). This is another good reason for using an audio file of a click track.
    Good luck.

  • Weird ibook display please help!

    I have an ibook g3 dual usb. I was having crashes and couldn't empty the trash etc. etc so I decided to to do clean reinstall. I ran the disc through several disk utilities saying the disk needed to be repaired. I repaired it, then erased it. Put a new os, 10.2 and the weirdest thing happened, the os opened in a tiny screen within the screen. So went to system preferences and looked under displays, and only a 1024 x whatever, option is available! No other screen resolutions! So I updated it to 10.2.8 and it loaded ok (still small screen with screen with black backdrop) and now it won't restart. Keep getting the "you need to restart your computer..." in all languages. Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    It sounds like you've installed a version of the OS that is too old or incompatible with the iBook. Check out this Apple Knowledge Base article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25497
    Do you have the system CD's that originally came with the iBook?
    What is the MHz rating and what kind of optical drive does it have (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, or Combo)?
    How much RAM is installed?
    The "you need to restart your computer..." message is indicative of a _kernel panic_.

  • I erased all my songs...please help...

    Why can't this be easy...it's supposed to be Macintosh. I had 1000 songs on my 30 gb ipod video. I wanted to update some songs w/the album artwork. I pulled over the songs to the ipod playlist and it doubled all the songs instead of replacing them. So I then removed all the old songs that were duplicated. When I looked on ipod the songs were all gone, but they showed as being on there in itunes. OK, so I thought I needed to sync it to make it match. I set it up to do manual update, selected to sync and selected only certain folders. I selected ONE playlist and clicked apply and when I was finished it erased all my playlists and albums except for the one I was to update. How can I go into my ipod and just update the files with new pictures. For instance I have only a few album artwork showing now and I'm downloading the rest of them and want to replace the one's that have no artwork with the song with artwork. I guess I'm an idiot but why doesn't it just replace the old song with the new one. Why did I get two songs, then when I deleted the old one it looked fine in I-tunes but when you went to the ipod they were all gone??????? I'm so confused. Can anyone explain to me how to do this in a simple way so that I can understand what to do??? THANKS!

    Does anyone know why my ipod summary says that i only have a few mb left of room but there are only 8 songs.. and it says the rest is other. I think that it deleted all of my songs and stored them in 'other' because i only have music, no other type of file. But I can't get to them..
    Can anyone please help me or direct me to get some help. I had 1600 songs and I know that I didn't delete them.. Can anyone please tell me what to do? Are they on there somewhere??

  • The "Are you sure you want to shut down" message comes on if i dont touch the Maxbook for one minute? please help!!!

    If i leave my macbook inactive for around a minute the message "Are you sure you want to shut down your computer?" appears and gives me the usual options of cancel, log off, sleep and shut down. This happens even i am running a full screen programme or watching something online.
    I have tried going through system preferences and changing things such as the energy saver preferences and nothing seems to work. Please help.

    Check this or maybe the coffee has finally taken it's toll and you might want to take ot in to Apple.
    Best
