24-bit, 48kHz Music Playback Question

I acquired some music from HDTracks that is 24-bit, 48kHz, Apple Lossless format.
I was able to put this on my iPod Touch, but I was wondering how I play it back in 24-bit, 48kHz.
From what I understand, the iPod will cut it down to 16-bit, 44.1kHz.
How do I play it back the way it was intended?

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

ICal alarm turns on music playback

I have an iPod Touch with the iPhone headphones that I leave plugged in when I put the iPod on my desk for the day. Since I sync my iCal calendar to the iPod for reference, it brings up reminder alarms on the iPod from time to time during the day. I'd like to be able to turn off the iPod calendar alarms, but I don't mind them so much.
What I do mind is that when the calendar alarm fires, music playback pops on. Once I notice a loud song playing through the headphones laying on my desk I need to turn the thing on to turn the music off.

Presuming that is not active?
Another way - allow the music to play for a bit
Then unlock the phone and use app switcher - double tap of home button - to see what all is running - while mail or weather apps may not be able to play music - I am sure you will find something in there that was

2 speakers music playback

Hi all,
I used to have a X-FI Fatality Pro series on Windows XP. Everything went fine. Now I upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and when I play music on any player, it plays in the Front left and right speakers. When I check THX console and windows speaker settings, I see everything set to 7. and any other sound would be in?7. except my music playback.
Any suggestions and help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem .... On Win 7 64 bits too... In game or in test mode, all channels works, but when i want to listen music, only 2 speakers works... With differents drivers....

Choppy Music playback with other programs running

Have a question on Itunes 7 playback. I frequently play games (mainly WOW) with the sound on, but at a low level. I then run Itunes in the background at a high volume level so I can listen to music. My computer is high end and I never had any problems doing this before. Now that I have upgraded to 7 the music is very choppy if the game is sending any sound output to the sound card. As soon as i turn in game sound off, the music playback is fine. Any ideas besides reverting to 6?

Rolling back to 6 won't fix every thing, I rolled back..iTunes seams to work but programs that use to work using quicktime still have the jittery, jerky sound affects.
It was a Reason Ask DVD Video (uses QT.7 that ran fine up until iTunes 7 was installed) run the dvd and any narration gets screwed up when you roll over the application button rollovers, so it has basically stuffed up the system sound, then the video has a hard time trying to catchup.

Iphone4 music playback smoothness

Hi there mates, I was wondering how does the Iphone4 deals with music playback, as I'd like to replace my current Nokia N97 mini with a newer phone, assuming music playback is almost perfectly.
Unfortunately my experience with the Nokia was pretty bad, because the playback of tracks AAC with 225kbps @44Khz suffered from effects like so-once-called wow&flutter, that is variations of music pitch during playback.
I thought this issue very bad and promised myself to investigate properly before switching to another music-faulty smartphone.
Gap-less playback could be another important factor. Is the Iphone4 gap-less capable?
As my new phone should have strong music playback capabilities, what's your opinion about the aspects above?

Allan, thanks. I hope your advise is a from an Apple-independent point of view.
I see you have thousands post count on your side, so maybe you can help my next question: do you know if the latest iPod or iPhones have a digital-out connection within the standard iPod slot?

Music playback ... garbled ???

Anyone else experience "garbled" music playback in Walkman or another mp3 playback apps ..... i seem to experience them every 5 or 6 songs.
I have to pause the song, then play again, and then its OK.

Hi kcaudle.
Check if all the files are compatible with the tablet. Check for all the supported file formats in the tablet: http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1024057
Try clearing cache and data for the Walkman app and other music playback app following the steps mentioned below:
Tap on Home icon > Apps and Widgets > Settings icon > Apps > All apps > Locate the app > Tap to open the App settings > Clear cache > Clear Data > Restart the Tablet.

Music playback - some tracks start half way through - help?

I have an Ipod Touch 32gb 4th gen.
On music playback, there are certain tracks that will not start at the beginning of the track and start half way through or even towards the end of the track.
This does not occur on playback on my 32gb classic, an 8gb nano, on laptop or on Apple TV.
The local apple store have replaced the Touch with another and the same happens on the same songs.
Having had the classic for nearly 4 years with no faults, I thought I'd step into 2010 and get with it a little, only to find that music playback is problematic.
All software is up to date, I have been through restores etc. with the local Apple Store.
Any suggestions guys?

We are having the same issue with our iPod touches and iPad, and yes, it is very annoying. I came here searching for a solution, but all I see is you all with the same problem/question.
I'm assuming this behavior probably has something to do with the new AirPlay in iOS and its ability to stream media to another iOS device and pick up where it left off. However, I find this extremely annoying for music, since songs start halfway through when in the middle of a playlist.
I have found no solution to this issue, and it is one Apple needs to resolve, especially when we have "Remember Playback Position" UNchecked for all of our music.
Here's hoping Apple puts a little more effort in the future to help us actually manage our media well, instead of crap feature bloat like Ping, Genius, etc.

Buggy music playback

I recently bought the Nokia 515 dual sim, and I'm experiencing problems with music playback. The preinstalled ringtones work just fine but when I try to play some of my own songs it bugs out. The track plays the first few seconds then skips two seconds then goes back those two seconds etc.
Also, on the site it's advertised that it can play .m4a files but when I try to play them it says they aren't supported. The phone is up to date.

Thanks for the clarification about m4a. Yes, I tried moving it to internal memory before but the problem persists.

Bit of a strange question regarding security and internet connection

This is a bit of an odd question so bear with me for a moment.
I sold my old G4 to someone I didn't know yesterday. While he was looking at it to make sure it was working I allowed him to plug my ethernet cable in (connected to both a netgear router and a cable modem) and go online to install an application on the computer he was buying. It did't take long and I didn't actually see what he installed but after he left and I plugged back in to my mac pro, my internet connection started suffering. It started by being very slow and then timing out with servers. I reset the modem and even bypassed the router but the connection did not improve and eventually I could only get a self assigned IP address with no internet, although the modem appeared to be fine.
Aside from finding my I.P. address at my location, is there anything else he could have compomised security wise, either in the name of harvesting some kind of info or just creating a problem in the cable network when I let him use my connection on the g4?
I think that most likely I'm being a little paranoid but the timing of this is a bit strange. It literally went down hill just after he left.
Today the cable company is reporting a wider internet outage than just me but I just though I'd throw it out there to see if there are any security wholes exploitable when someone uses your internet connection (I would think and hope that there are not).
thanks a bunch

Well, in the closing the stable door approach it is a good idea to do a complete erase and install when selling any computer. There's lots of references to this and even one about removing a certain file so when they start up they get the brand new Mac greeting window. If you do not erase the drive using the secure erase feature in Disk Utility then with an $80 investment plus an empty spare drive the purchaser can likely recover any files you had on the computer recently if they consider it worth the effort.
I suspect the internet issue is not related to this, especially since your ISP commented about problems.

Recently wiped out my mac do to mavericks update going wrong. If i add this computer with my itunes match will it put all the music i had back in my itunes library or just upload the little bit of music i purchased on itunes in the past?

Recently erased my entire mac HD do to mavericks update going wrong. I do not have a back up for my music. But my itunes match account has all my music.

Hello gogreenj14,
If you had iTunes Match updated with all of your non iTunes purchased content already, then yes, when you enable iTunes Match with the following article it will have all the content that has been uploaded to iTunes Match will be available for download.
iTunes: How to add a computer or iOS device to iTunes Match
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4913
Open the latest version of iTunes on the computer you intend to add. You can download the latest version of iTunes here.
Sign in with the Apple ID you use with iTunes Match.
Choose Store > Turn On iTunes Match.
Click the Add This Computer button.
When prompted, enter your Apple ID password.
iTunes will automatically begin scanning your computer's library for matches.
A status indicator will allow you to track progress. You may also manually pause and resume the process at any time by clicking the Stop or Start button.
Once iTunes has completed matching and uploading your iTunes library, your music in iCloud will be integrated into your local music library. A download button will appear to the right of any content that you have in iCloud that doesn't already exist on your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Front Row/music playback issue

Hi all,
I have a rather large music library in iTunes and I have my Mac Mini attached to my stereo and TV. I use Front Row for music playback. Recently, I have been having trouble as the music will "stall" randomly or "freeze" for a couple seconds, then resume playing. Very annoying.
I've noticed that this problem does not seem to happen if I select the music from iTunes without Front Row running or if I use FR to select the music, then back out of FR with the little remote.
Anyway, I prefer to keep FR running. I've seen LOTS of articles and posts regarding video freezing with FR, but not music. Anyone know what's wrong?
Thanks!

I have the same problem on my macmini. :/
And I too like to leave Front Row playing songs while I do other thing in my house.
It hangs in almost every song now, it never did that before. I wonder if it's this iTunes update...
Is there someone else with the same problem, or someone that could help us solve that?

CK-200 poor music playback quality

Hi, I've just installed the car kit CK-200 (ISO cable version) into my car and I'm very disappointed by the music playback quality.
I have Nokia C7 with the latest firmware (14.002) and I have also updated the car kit firmware into 3.0.
There's no problem with the phone call quality - I would say it is comparable to the other car kits (for example to CK-7W I've had before), but if I want to use it for playing music, it still plays it in "phone call-like" quality. I have tried different players, but no success - still the same low quality.
If I turn the FM transmitter on and tune up the car radio to the transmitters' frequency, I get much better quality then via this car kit (although sometimes it's noisy from other broadcasting radios).
In the product description of this CK-200 they highlight very good sound quality thanks to some DSP technology - I hope there's more than this.
Do you have any idea what might be the problem here?

Hi
The CK-200 is a mono output car kit that is only designed for calls, not music.
If a handset is playing music via the mono Bluetooth channel, this is a fluke, and not part of the design of the handset.
The CK-100, 300, 600 are all stereo car kits with music capability.
The DSP settings on the CK-200 manage the voice vs background noise in the car so the driver can be heard more clearly by the other caller.

Keynote Sync problems with music Playback

Dear Keynote Experts,
after long trying I can´t fix this problem.
I want to synchronize Pictures with 4s duration. This shall run in sync with a music playback which is 120 bpm. So it would be in Sync with the progression of the beats. At least the pictures don´t run smooth in my case during the presentation. I checkes the timing with a watch the and it seems as if the single pictures move in unequal durations. Weird?
I tried an Update of Quicktime and tested the whole thing with a new Keynote document only programmed for this syncing purpose. No success...
Maybe help lies in the intelligent animation tool or something like this which would help, otherwise it should be no great deal, to have the Pages properly changed each 4s.
Thanks for your help in advance.
All the best
Tim

Hi Kelly,
after a while...
yeah I do it like this. I record the whole thing with screenflow, as Kenote does a good resolution full screen.
I would like to export certain sections of my full grouped objects Image. I can refit it on a smaller paper size record this cutout full screen with Screenflow in high resolution, so far so good - but:
The problem is, when I use smaller paper sizes, the whole Object gets automatically scaled and the relations of the grouped Object are lost. Is ist possible to keep the absolute values of the objects (1cm stays 1 cm) when I switch to different sizes of the paper.
Thanks for your answer...
Best wishes
Merry Christmas

Does the Iphone 3G support music playback via a bluetooth headset?

Hi All,
Does the Iphine 3g support music playback via a bluetooth headset at all, I suspect not...

It's been on many a user's requested feature list since the first iPhone, and people were disappointed when it didn't show up on the 3G. The adaptor he links to will get the job done.
I have to admit I've demoed a couple of bluetooth stereo headsets, and the music sounded awful. Perhaps it's improved, but for this reason it's not a feature I've personally wished was included.

Problem with iTunes Music Playback

Hi, I like using itunes but im having a problem with the music playback. If i have just itunes running and some background programs i.e. anti-virus playback of music is fine but I want to be able to surf the web, and play my games while listening to music. However when i try to so this the sound becomes muffled, choppy and can skip and slow down all in all its impossible to listen to. I thought this may be a problem with my PC but its not a slow one. I tried Windows Media Player and while browsing the net, playing my games etc playback was perfect. Also ive done everything on this page> http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610 but still had no luck. Now i will use media play if i have to much i much prefer itunes ans it has all my libary sorted out. Any help would be brilliant.
Thanks
Mark

Even though you LOVE iTunes, there are many other programs out there that don't require extra software to be installed for it to function....there by freeing up your CPU to run more programs.
I would seriously look into trying something different that doesn't need to hog so much system resources....until they reduce their program's needs.
Try something like Winamp or Musicmatch Jukebox.
You can have your library to show up pretty much the same way that they do in iTunes. You'll just have to read through the user guides to get it exactly the way you want it.
