Updates that won't upload....

My Razr Maxx has a message on the Notification bar that says "4 items waiting to upload" but they won't upload because underneath that it says "Remote device offline." It has been saying that for three days now. First, what does it mean when it says "remote device offline" and what has to be done to fix this problem so I can get the updates? I don't know what the updates are, but I probably need them!

How do you turn on the remote device to make the items actually upload to it?
You will want to install MotoCast on your computer and configure it so it knows what folders to share. You don't necessarily have to have it automatically upload to your phone. I don't, but that's up to you. You can learn more about how to do that here and there's also their support site.
Did you make sure they were unchecked and turn your phone off/on? If that fixes the problem and you want them to be checked later that's not a problem. I had just read that solved your problem for some folks.

Is there way to sync mp3 files that won't upload to iTunes Match?

Let me briefly explain. I subscribe to iTunes Match. This works great except that there are a few large mp3 files (i.e., lectures) that won't upload to iTunes Match. I need to get those files on my iPhone or iPad. With iTunes Match on, all the uploaded music is synced but not those files. With iTunes Match off, I can easily add those files. How can I get these files to sync to the device and still use iTunes Match for all the rest of my music?

You can only remove them in iTunes on the computer.

How can I delete an automatic update that won't download?

Hi,
I've just intalleld OS X Mavericks only to find that the iMovie upgrade will not download because my vido card is not the right one (too old). I was told I cannot replace a video card.
What I really want to do is delete the upgrade from the App Store so the red number 1 is not forever in the way, bothering me. I found one solution which doesn't work because the upgrade will not even try to download, the 'can't do it' dialog comes up before I can press any option and x keys.
Can somebody please advise. As my Mac gets older, I figure this will be a growing problem and I can't be the only one who cannot afford a new compj\uter every couple of years.

Deleting the App Store app from the Dock is not really a solution though is it? This issue has nothing to do with whether you have auto-updates on or not either.
The problem is worse than just the red badge on the app's icon in the Dock, the problem is every time you go to the App Store Updates section to manually install updates -- to other apps, OS X, or whatever, that **** iMovie app is still sitting there waiting to be updated too. You can't really use the "Update All" button now because that will also try to update iMovie, again.
Surely there must be some way to remove the iMovie app from the Updates section of the App Store? I thought hiding/removing it from the Purchases section of the App Store would do that, but it doesn't. It looks like a bug in that the App Store doesn't realise the update is incompatible with the hardware until after you click the Update button. It should know up front that it isn't compatible with this machine and not show it.

How do I install "automatic" software updates that won't install automatically?

Hi, I currently have 13 updates downloaded and ready for installation. For some reason, when I restart my computer to install the updates, nothing happens. It asks me to install the same updates over and over. How do I install my updates?

How did you download them? Where are they stored? What shows up in /Library/Updates/?

My feed won't upload to iTunesU, but works fine if I subscribe to it through iTunes!

Hello all!
here's the problem:
I have made a link to an xml file that won't upload to iTunesU through the public site manager, and won't be validated on FeedValidator.org.
Feedvalidator gives the message: server returned timed out
iTunesU Public Site Manager returns the message that it can't download the feed from the url.
HOWEVER,
- the url to the xml file works perfectly in all web browsers - it is recognized as a feed and a working link to the video comes up right away.
- I uploaded the xml and video file to a different website(not on the University's server) and iTunesU and feedvalidator recognize it as valid, and the content appeared on our iTunesU page straight away.
- I was able to successfully subscribe to the feed (on the University's server) and download the video file using iTunes on my computer.
I am thinking it has something to do with the permissions on our University's server, but the system admin and I have reached a dead end as far as solutions
I'm getting pretty frustrated figuring this out, can anybody help?!??!
It is greatly appreciated!

Your feed definitely validates, I’ve entered it by direct input on the w3cfeed validator and it’s fine - http://validator.w3.org/feed/#validate_by_input. That suggests it’s definitely a server configuration issue. Could the server be blocking ports required by the validator or iTunes? I presume the validator and iTunes both use http port 80, in which case, as the feed renders in a browser there shouldn't be a problem. Is the server definately available to external users/applications ie off campus?
Could it be a character encoding issue? I have downloaded your feed and opened it in notepad++ and it tells me the character encoding is 'UTF8 without BOM'. Not sure if it makes any difference but I use 'UFT8' for our feeds. I think servers can change character encoding depending on how they're set up which might account for the discrepancy.
This is not connected to your original question but you're not using the itunesu name space in the rss element at the top of your feed. As you're not using any itunesu specific elements in your feed I'm not sure if it's needed but just thought I'd mention it.
<rss xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" version="2.0"xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:itunesu="http://www.itunesu.com/feed">

Some files won't upload; Others will

I'm having problems uploading certain mp3 files to my iPod mini.
In general, the mini seems to be working just fine but there are some files that have been part of my library for several years that won't upload. The same files will open and play properly on iTunes and other software.
These files were originally loaded and currently reside on an external HD as mp3 files. When I do a "GET INFO" they come up as MPEG Movies. If I add the .mps extension to the end of the file name and do a "GET INFO" they come up as mp3 files but still wont load into my iPOD mini.
I can do a "convert to mp3" in iTunes and the newly converted mp3s will work properly (that is they will upload to the mini.) This is a possible solution however, I have in the neighborhood of 2500 albums in mp3 format and it appears that about a third of them fall into the catagory described above. It's taken years to convert my entire music collection and I'd like to avoid having to do it again
Any ideas about what might be going on.
I'm using a G4 MAC with OSX

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You may need to convert them all. Just highlight the songs and then convert them. (Highlight the affected songs and hold your mouse down over one. The menu should pop up and you can go to convert selection.) It should be a one time thing.

Here's a fix for uploaded files that won't play.

Is this you? You've found a lot of files were uploaded, instead of matched. Some of those files might even be on albums where other tracks matched. Sure you want them ALL to match, but meantime, it would be nice if uploaded files would actually play! Sure, you can see their names, track durations, etc. but if you try to play them directly, nothing happens and if you try to play an album through, when it gets to an uploaded track, it stalls or skips past it. You've checked the file type and it's an AAC so you figure it can't be a file encoding incompatibility problem and besides, whatever the file type, Apple is red-flagging anything incompatible, tells you it's ineligible, right?
Guess Again - not all AAC files are produced with the same encoder and some of them, while they'll get past Apple's eligibile/ineligible screening process, probably shouldn't.
I routinely record vinyl using Audacity and at various times I've used different encoders (not that I knew it until now). As a result of checking which uploaded files play and which do not, I'm pretty confident of the following. While some AAC files created outside of iTunes might work, those encoded using Lavf52.36.0 will not. Neither will files encoded using Lavf52.64.2. There may be others.
So what's the fix? The same one recommended for getting files flagged by Apple as ineligible to pass muster. You need to make an AAC copy in iTunes and swap that for the uploaded files that won't play.
Here are the steps I use to get it done. You may be able to streamline the process though.
(1) Turn off wi-fi to prevent iTunes Match from attempting to match any new files until you're good and ready. If you don't to this, you may end up with files you've just created being flagged as duplicates.
(2) Select all files in an album that has some bad uploaded files. Select Advanced > Create AAC Version. (NOTE: I don't bother trying to separate uploaded from matched, just too much hassle.)
(3) Select one of the files, so you can File > Reveal In Finder. Generally this will get you to the album folder that includes both sets of tracks. The ones you just created will have a "1" in the file name.
(4) Create a folder on the desktop and move all the newly created files to it. Delete the "1" from the file names. Name the folder based on album title.
(5) In iTunes, delete the listings for the newly created files.
(6) Turn on wi-fi and wait for iCloud to reconnect. Watch the cloud icon - it'll tell you.
(7) Delete the album from iTunes (You're now getting rid of the copy that was originally uploaded, so be sure you've really got the new AAC files handy to replace them with). Note you will see an option to delete from iCloud too. Check it. You want these files GONE!
(8) Select Store > Update iTunes Match. If you do a search for the album from an iCloud enabled iOS device (I use Apple TV) after the update is completed, you shouldn't be able to find the album.
(9) Select File > Add To Library and go get the folder of tunes you created.
(10) Run Update iTunes Match again.
(11) Watch the iTunes progress bar. Once the matching process has checked to see if you've added anything to your library, you'll see fresh copies of your songs uploading.
(12) As another means of confirmation, once several of the songs have uploaded, do an iOS device search for the album. You should be able to get the album to appear before the upload is complete. You may have to back out of the search and back in to get it to work, but chances are when you first see the album, the song titles will all be grayed out. Once the update is complete, give it a minute and everything should become available to you.
(13) Pick a track that wouldn't play before and watch to see if the timer starts to move, followed by music! It is now time to do a little happy dance.
I know this is a far cry from figuring out what it takes to get songs that should match to actually do so, but that's a whole different ball of wax.

Thanks this was useful. I have been ripping my audiobooks and I was finding that they would get uploaded to iCloud in the process, which in itself was fine, but then iTunes would not let me change the media type to Audiobook, which is annoying as it effects how iTunes treats the media. Like showing you the skip back 10 seconds button.
The general outline here helped me work around the issue and change the media type before the media was re-uploaded to iCloud.

Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I keep getting "blocked plug-in" messages. Adobe Flash player update won't upload. Suggestions?

Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I keep getting "blocked plug-in" messages. Adobe Flash player update won't upload. Suggestions?

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and did a complete removal and reinstallation of iTunes. You MUST follow the directions here exactly...it's more than just iTunes that must be removed, and it MUST be done in the order in which the support article says. I followed the exact instructions, and iTunes is back on my machine (no more C runtime error) and you do NOT lose your music...it's all in my library, as it was before.
Good luck!

If you're on windows try the following:
This worked for me an hour ago and has allowed me to sync ok. Still haven't tried downloading the new version 5 to the phone yet as I'm still backing up photos etc just in case.
1. Quit itunes
2. Start an elevated command prompt (Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> right click Command Prompt -> Run as Administrator)
3. Once in the command prompt type the following 3 words starting where your cursor is flashing: netsh winsock reset
4. press ENTER
5. Reboot your machine
6. Restart itunes & connect device to sync
7. Good luck

PLEASE help my 1ST gen that won't mount or update or connect suddenly...

Please can I beg for someone to help me with my dear old first generation 10GB scroll wheel iPod (Version 1.5) that has suddenly developed it's first ever problem in 5 years?!
I know it's a veritable dinosaur compared to most of you, but it was my first and is very special to me, and like I said, it's worked like a dream from day one, until yesterday.
Yesterday I plugged it into my HD via the Firewire port that it always connects with, and iTunes didn't find it, and it didn't appear in the Finder either. All it did was charge the battery with the flashing charging indicator icon.
Nothing has changed here, not on my system unit, nor on my Powerbook (running a different version of iTunes). The only thing that happened was we had a power cut the night before last and I don't know if the iPod was plugged in via the cable to the plug in the wall (like that would have anything to do with it??!!)
However it still works, it still plays music and it still charges, I just can't connect it to a computer to add/delete music etc.
. I tried resetting it.
. I tried it on my Powerbook which also didn't load it in iTunes or mount it in the Finder.
. I tried a different Firewire cable into a different port.
. I've rebooted my machine.
. I've put it in Disc Mode and I get the "OK to Disconnect" message, but when I connect it, the message just stays there and all that happens is the little battery logo charges, and so far I have not got the "Do Not Disconnect" message.
. I've tried the iPod Software Updaters that I have in my Utilities folder, but even that won't find the iPod and asks me to connect an iPod when it is already connected via Firewire. So I can't Restore it.
Is there anything else I could try? Please don't tell me I'm screwed, I mean, it still plays, but I don't want to be stuck with it not being able to be updated
I've looked through loads of topics here and can't find any suitable answers or things I haven't tried that haven't worked.
Eternal gratitude (and great Karma!) to anyone that can help a poor old grandaddy iPod out

Hopefully, there will be something in one of these support articles that fixes the problem for you. Don't rule out resetting your router by unplugging it from power for about 30 seconds.

But there are about 10 songs that won't download,yes I have tried to convert them to AAC or whatever that is,and it seems like that won't work either.

When on a job web site and you have to upload your resume apple needs to come up with a update so you can do so. When I try to upload my resume from my adobe reader or iBooks it keeps on going to photos and won't upload from the adobe or iBooks.

Please come up with an update that will allow people to upload their resume from iBooks or Adobe reader to the website of there choosing using safari. It only gives you the option to upload a photo a take a photo. The iPad or any tablet is going to take over as far as computers are concerned because it's easy to Cary with you and people like the fact of something a lot smaller to carry around then the laptop. Please help need this done like yesterday. Other then that all the apple products I have, has always been the best and they will outwork any windows based or android. You get what you pay for and apple is top dollar.

Hello Wyodor,
thanks for your reply on my question.
You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)
greetings Lasource

Have a number badge in settings that won't go away and there are no updates that need to be done. Help!!!

On my settings, there is a number one (red) that won't go away. There are no updates that need to be done.

Maybe you should try updating 5.1.1 from iTunes? Because I had the same thing and it was 5.0.1.
