2.6 gig indicates 64 days of music

After several days of moving libraries around and between computers and external drives I finally got everthing working how and where I want it. Unfortunately I Tunes library now indicates my 2.67 gig, 828 song library will play for 67.6 days! Since it works fine I am afraid to touch it. Any ideas?

hi Ronald!
hmmm. check through your library to see if you've got any peculiarly-long seeming songs (that are displaying as if they are hundreds of hours long).
the quickest way to do that would be to sort on the time column in your library by clicking the column header a couple of times.
keep us posted.
love, b

  • I downloaded ITunes on a new computer a while ago but have been afraid to do a sync, Today I did and now lost 3.5 days of music?? I have checked my itunes folder and they arent there either. Are they gone forever?

    I downloaded itunes on a new computer a while ago but was too afraid to syn. I did sync just now and lost 3.5 days of music, have checked my itunes music file and they arent there either. Im sure the music is all still on my old computer but it is broken and i cant access it. Are they all really gone forever?

    Not without your old computer, no you can't. You could use Home Sharing to get content to your new one, but again, you would need access to the old one. My question is... before syncing to the new one... a message pops up warning you that syncing will erase the content from the iPod and replace it with the content in the new library. Did you ignore this warning?

  • Days of Music

    I downloaded the latest version of Itunes, 7.3.2.6
    I have noticed that where it used to say approx 11. whatever days of music at the bottom, it is now showing 373.2 days and even I know this is impossible on a 30gig Ipod!
    Whilst it is not imperative for me to have this information, it was quite an interesting feature and I'd like it back working correctly if anyone knows how to correct this....

    My iTunes was showing similar erroneous information. In sorting by song duration, I found that iTunes was calculating that 2 songs had extremely long durations (many days worth each). I deleted these two corrupted songs and now the information shows as realistic again.

  • How many GB is 1.7 days of music?

    I need to know approximately how many GB that 1.7 days of music is...if you can tell me how many GB one hour of music takes, that's fine too.

    if you can tell me how many GB one hour of music takes, that's fine too.
    I  must disagree with my friend Kappy.  You are surely asking not about USB transfer rates, but about the size of the music files, correct?
    Normal music files with 256 kbps encoding (e.g. iTunes Plus) take about 2 MB per minute of music, which is 120 MB for an hour of music. 
    1.7 days of music will take about 4 GB of music. If you have many files at bitrates other than 256, it may be much higher or lower, probably in the range of 2-10 GB.  But it will not by any stretch be terabytes.

  • 36 days of music to 14 days....How do I get music back

    I used to have 36 days of music on my library, 40 movies, 50 Itouch apps and when I logged on I now only have 14 days of music and 12 movies. All my purchased items and playlists are gone as well. They are not in my recycle bin. What can I do?
    Thanks!

  • Incorrect days of music

    Under "All" iTunes reports 30.6 days of music, which is wrong. When I individually check each genre I get:
    Country - 38 mins
    Hip Hop - 18.1 hours
    Pop - 2.9 hours
    Rock - 4.4 days
    Soundtrack - 12.2 hours
    Where is the 30.6 days coming from??

    I do not, only music. The iTunes Music folder says 11.37gb, which is also what the program reports. My iPod also sits at 11.37gb.

  • 50 Days of Music!!

    I recently added about 10 or 11 new albums to my iTunes library, which was on 16.7 days total playing time (about 28Gb; roughly 6200 songs).
    I noticed that the total playing time has leapt to over 50 days now. I am sure this is wrong. Those 10 CDs did not have over 3 days of music on them. (They were imported correctly).
    I have upgraded to the latest iTunes 6.
    Any ideas on how to fix this? Is this a bug in iTunes software?
    Any help gratefully accepted!

    I have the same experience, and have checked the songs to see if one is really long and if there are duplicates. The problem is that there is an inconsistency between the size of the music in GB (in my case 21 GB) and the days of music (in my case, showing 78 days). A colleague has 15.2 G and 8.3 days and we are using the same storage density.
    Not a big deal, more of an annoyance, but if I could fix it, I would.

  • MBR95 using one gig per day.

    My router usage was 1 to 2 gig per day before the new MBR95.  Now it is using one gig per day.  The manual has firewall controls but the router does not.
    What can I do?
    My version is v5.0.4.  Is there a better version?
    CornHen

    Thanks for the modem information. People with those might be interested in knowing they work with the Cradlepoint MBR95 and this is the kind of thing that a search will pick up.
    1 GB a month is 34 MB a day, that’s pretty tough to do. You can eat that up from a couple websites with video ads. 10 GB/mo (341 MB/day) and 12 GB/mo (409 MB/day) is more realistic and pretty much the minimum for a private network with multiple network devices and multiple users sharing the data plan.

  • The Day That Music Died

    After 4 days without music and having tried the "fixes" listed in these forums without any success I have resorted to just writing to complain. I might as well since I can no longer listen to my music without iTunes shutting down after 2 or 3 songs. After searching news articles hoping for a hint as to when Apple might fix the problem the universal news regarding Apple's position was "Apple would not answer phone calls or respond to emails".
    My question is, has Microsoft bought out Apple?

    I WAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. TRY THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE!
    I FOUND IT IN ANOTHER FORUM AND IT WORKED FOR ME!
    I may have a solution that will work.
    Check your audio settings- go to your Applications
    folder, then to Utilities, then open the application
    Audio Midi Settings. Under Audio Device check the
    Audio Output- Format- Your settings might be
    something crazy like 96000.0 Hz - I changed mine back
    to the original setting of 32000.0 Hz and no
    problems!
    I've been able to listen to music for about a good
    half hour now- while this solution might just seem
    premature, this is something I haven't been able to
    do for a week- Sometimes it happens on my machine
    that the audio settings get messed up after I
    install an update or something.
    Please let me know how many other users crash issues
    with iTunes is resolved with this - and if your
    settings were 96000.0 Hz as well... You may also
    recently noticed that some multimedia will not play
    audio properly. The incorrect settings will do this
    also.
    I don't know what is behind this but I had a
    similar problem happen to me last year too. Apple
    should really take care of this- Or am I doing
    something wrong?

  • "Days of music" in bottom of window.

    I just now noticed that where it says "days", in the bottom of the iTunes window, for about 25 GB of music, it displays 39624.3 days worth of music. Do you know why this is? Is there any way I could fix that minor annoyance?

    Yes, I just noticed that, but I am sure that the figure "39624.3 days" for 6070 songs is significantly incorrect. I remember the number of days being much less. Where is iTunes getting this huge number from? How could I get it to show the actual days worth of music in my library? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Macbook Pro with Retina Display 128 GB Flash Storage. Will it hold 28 days of music?

    I just got the lowest level of Macbook Pro with Retina Display. I have a lot of music, that I would ideally like to transfer to my new laptop, but I have had trouble understanding whether or not it would fit. I don't know if it will. I have about 28 days worth of music. Can I transfer my library without messing my new computer up?

    Open iTunes and display your music library. In the iTunes status bar at the bottom of the window you should see what you wish to know. Or you can simply select your /Home/Music/ folder then Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window where the size of the folder willl be displayed in the upper panel.

  • Hi, one day my music on itunes sounds great...the next the only songs that sound normal are the ones that were uploaded from a cd...the others all sound brassy...why? anyhelp out there would be great. thanks.

    One day music on itunes sounds great, the next the only songs that sound normal are the ones loaded from a cd, the others sound brassy. Nothing was changed just normal apple updates.

  • I have the earpod headphones, but in the last few days the music or whatever I have been listening to has been stronger in the right ear. what is wrong ?

    Its not my ipod because its the same when I have them plugged into a computer. I have tried cleaning it, other people have listened to it and have said the same thing. As far as I know there has been no damage to them and the are still under warrenty. Is it worth getting them looked at or just buying another pair, or is it something simple that I have done?

    Forst confirm there is a problem with the iPod and not the earphones. If it is the iPod:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to one side.
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
