3gs iPod loudness level drastically reduced

Updated my phone to 4.1...guess what!!! I've got no problems with passcode,calendar or hanging problem.
.....But iPod volume has reduced a lot.....I scroll down the volume half way and music is almost MUTE, put it to MAX,and I can barely listen to the music...I am pretty furious about this one
I did everything possible ...checked the music aac format...restored the phone to factory settings...even reduced the data stored on the phone. Bought the iPhone few months back, updated all the way upto 4.0.2..and faced no problems ...the music loudness level was a lot and sound clear ...after updating to 4.1 in one short morning , loudness level reduced...a lot...even at 100% charge.... Please ....Help me out...I don't care even if at the end of the day I can't call or surf....but I love my iPod ..it's one of the main reasons why I bought the phone in the first place...hope to get your reply soon....yes..and my headphones are perfectly fine...I tried listening with it through my Sony Walkman ...I am pretty sure it is a firmware problem ...because the remember listening to iPod morning before updating and the volume level was off the roof and clear. Hope to get your suggestions soon APPLE...

Thanks dude ,but what does that mean.....will the braniaks comeup with the next software update and fix this problem(4.2 goldmaster i presume).
Because if it not going to be fixed..then i might as well change the phone because i've read various articles over the internet that this goldmaster4.2 will be iphone's last and final software update.
If its not... and there more updates coming(for the 3gs) then i presume my question is answered....waitin for the reply..

My 10G iPod-Volume Levels Erratic + Freezing...HELP!

Admittedly, I have a 3 year old 10G iPod. But I'd prefer to getting it working well if I can instead of junking it for a new model. We've been through a lot together...ha ha
The problem with mine is that the volume levels jump in-between songs pretty often. I will be listening to it on the bus and then suddenly a new song will start at a mind-numbingly LOUD level, even though I have not touched the pad. At first I attributed it to how albums are randomly mastered at different volume levels, but I generally make a point to equalize them before loading onto the iPod. I also have the sound check function clicked ON.
Anyone heard of this problem? any suggestions?
It will also freeze playing occasionally, even though the song timer continues to play out. I'd say this happens every 20 songs or so. What's that about?
Should I try to revert back to factory settings? Or should I just throw in the towel?

Hi, i bought my Ipod touch 8g last week, now, when i play my music ( without earphones ) the volume is very low even though it is on full, in fact its pretty useless, it was much louder, has anyone got any ideas please? Thanks.

Streaming music from iphone 3GS ipod to powered speakers

Can I stream music to my powered speakers(attached to an Airport Express) from the IPhone 3GS iPod?
Is there an app made to do this?

At the moment, no. I would suggest submitting feedback to Apple if you want this feature.

Exporting a project with multiple audio tracks changes the loudness level regardless of export format

I recently had to submit a TVC and discovered that premiere was changing the loudness level after export, when the TVC failed the quality check.
I checked the audio loudness of other formats that I had exported and the same thing had happened the audio loudness, it had changed.
After a bit of troubleshooting I found a workaround. I mixdown all of the tracks in adobe audtion to one track and then imported it into premeire.
Once I did this the audio loudness was not changed after exporting.
Workflow for when it didn't work.
I used edit in adobe audtion for the audio tracks from premiere.
Matched the audio to the loudness level I wanted, and then saved each track.
Export from premiere.
To Check Audio Loudness
Bring in exported file into new premiere project
Edit the audio in adobe audtion.
Drag the audio file into match audio to check loudness level.
I am using
Adobe Premiere Pro CC v8.1
Windows 7 on PC
Please fix this adobe.

What did your Broadcast Quality Control pick up on?
Audio Levels and Loudness are two different things in this regard.

Disk size is drastically reducing after the Dense restructure

After Clearing empty blocks the number of blocks are coming down by 10% showing that empty blocks were existing in the database. At this point in time total size of .PAG file remains constant (Before and after clearing empty blocks).
We did a restructure of database the number of blocks remained constant but the .PAG file has drastically reduced to less than 50%.
We are trying to understand why would the 10% block reduction is casuing the disk size reduction by 50%.
Thanks for your inputs!
Edited by: user3942062 on Mar 14, 2013 3:31 AM

The .pag file contains free space, not just that left behind by CLEARBLOCK EMPTY but also where blocks have been modified and no longer fit back into their original slot (so Essbase has to expand the .pag file to fit them back somewhere else). For example, if a block is taking up 2K on disk but you then load additional data, the block's footprint on disk may increase to 3K. Essbase can't fit it back into its original 2K location, so it leaves that 2K chunk of the .pag file empty (at least for the time being) and finds 3K elsewhere.
Only restructuring the database physically releases this space.

Loudness - Levels increased issue

I have one clip. The levels were pretty much all the same on the entire clip, but I had to raise it to 12db on the entire clip and still found it not enough. Then I chopped up the clip and when I adjust levels on each chopped up section by going to Loudness I have such a high variance in levels that I can't listen to it. What I mean is this one clip level is 12db and then loudness is at 100% and the levels are still low, but then I have another one that is at 12db and loudness is at 71% and it is too loud. Both clips came from the same long clip. Why is it doing that? See the screenshots below. The first image shows the two clips next to each other. By looking at the waveform you can see that the first one is louder than the other one. The second image shows the loudness of the first clip and the second shows the loudness of the second screen.
Thanks!

Yes, turn off Loudness, reset the clip's level to 0, add the Gain filter (Logic version) and boost the gain level SLOWLY. It can blast you our very quickly if you're not careful. LOL
See if it helps.

N73 mp3 player-Low loudness level ;(((((((((((((((...

Hi there!
I have eternal problem with N73-even when I set a volume level to 100% sound is pretty quiet, and I can't hear it on a busy street....Thought a friend of mine has 6233 and the nokia has very loud plaer'r sound...more than enough.
As far as I know N73 has powerful digital amplifaers so I guess player's sound has been software-locked. And this is S60....'multimedia' device...
Maybe SOMEONE(nokia's engineers) here has some solution and can tell something...
I just don't want to change my phone to SE or SAMSUNG, Eten and so on...Message Edited by noxit on 30-Jul-2007 08:26 AM

Heh))Realy?
I was talking about firmware V.30704.1.0.1 / 19-01-07/ RM-133
and this vol level is just killing me((
Regardind personal taste-that's not only my problem-a read that a thousand times in our (russian) part of inet...Mainly I heard about 2 solutions
1. Change firmware from N73 to N73ME (it gives some increasing of volume...but as far as we know there is just no diference between N73 and N73ME in sound quality ((. This is just marketing .
2 Very...hm..unusual way...start LCG JUKEBOKS on top of standart player(standart player don't play anything it just started). 2nd way gives a sound 2times louder...
So maybe some players from independent producers can pass through those software locks????

After upgrade to 4.3.3 my iphone 3gs ipod not working

Please.can someone suggest possible fixes for this problem. I have just upgraded the software on my iphone 3gs to version 4.3.3
and discovered the ipod function not working all the content is still listed but when I try to play a song it just throws me back to the main menu
after about 3 seconds. What can I do? Have searched this forum and searched online but have not come across a user with the same problem.
Any advice gratefully received.

After upgrading to the latest iTunes version (9.2.0.61), iTunes does not recognize my iPhone.
I have tried:
switching cables,
switching USB ports,
restarting computer,
repairing iTunes,
uninstalling and downloading 64-bit version then installing,
uninstalling and downloading Windows 7 version then it would not install,
verified that AMDS had started,
restarted AMDS.
I have tried all of these things at various times and in various orders. I did get iTunes to see my phone once, but because I have been working on this a few hours, I don't remember the sequence I used. I do know that when I closed and restarted iTunes it no longer recognized my phone again.
I connected my iPhone to a different computer that does have iTunes latest version, (9.2.0.61) and it was recognized. That computer is a HP Pavilion a6530f PC running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit version.

3GS: Ipod MP3 Playback via Bluetooth (Audi A4 Speakerphone)

Hi folks,
i have an Iphone 3gs. Connecting to my Audi Speakerphone works fine. Could phone with the hands free set very excelent. What i wanted to know is, could i also playback MP3 files via Bluetooth. Using ipod on my iphone brings no audio output in my car. Strange, because when i do an audio memo on the iphone, i can listen it via my speakerphone set in my car.
is there a trick to get running ipod output via bluetooth on the iphone ?
thanks for information.
greets
werner

I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.

Ideal ipod volume level for vehicle use?

what is the ideal volume level to have your ipod at when used in your vehicle, considering volume control would then be controlled from the vehicles head unit? clear signal and sound quality are my concern. thanks.

It depends on far more information than you are giving.
How is it connected up to to the head unit?
Eith some connections, teh volume of the iPod is self is irrelevant and makes no difference.
I have mine connected thru a cassette tape adapter.
I set the iPod to about 2/3 way up. This seems to eliminate any distortion/static caused by the head unit trying to amplify too small of a signal (thereby boosting the noise also).

8GB iPod Touch default capacity reduced

Upgraded my 8GB iPod Touch (bought it on August 2008 - so no idea whether its 2G or 3G)...If my memory serves me right, the default capacity was 7.38GB when the firmware was 3.1.3. After yesterday's upgrade its reduced to 6.82GB. Did iOS4 consume 1.2GB of my iPod Touch space?
Is this only on mine or anybody else are observing the same?

I was loving my ipod, until Apple did the dumb update. I thought the new software would make me love it even more. But what the software has done to my ipod, decreasing my battery life and lowering my capacity, it just ruined it. Apple has to fix this Cause I'm {and a lot others)are not happy! now i have less space to add music and less time to listen and play games! -.-

Iphone 3gs iPod issue

When I performed the update to the newest software, for some reason now almost every song on my iPod on my iPhone 3gs is on there twice. May be a simple fix, but IDK didn't happen until the update

Hi, I was having the same issue while updating with iTunes, the fix is to add your device to the "portal" with XCode. No need to have the new Xcode 4.5.
quick how-to:
1- In Xcode, go to Organizer->Devices
2- Xcode will ask you to add this device to the "Portal"
3- Wait until "The version of iOS on “Catarino’s iPad” does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK; which is available here." message appears.
4- go back to your iPad and proceed with activation.
5 - done.
hope it helps.

i had this problem once, found out it was the earbuds. try out a different pair of headphones/earbuds. if something blows in those evil little fragile earbuds, it's going to play at a poor quality. if not, then try re-uploading the songs

Increasing Ipod sound levels

I have just ripped 350 albums and put them on my ipod,i then have the ipod plugged into the aux input in the car stereo, which is fine except the sound volumes on max are still really soft...is there anything i can do to the ripped files within itunes or any other app to boost the volume when played thru the ipod and the car ?
Thanks
Matt

You could also try iVolume, it levels all songs to the same volume so you won't have to raise or lower the volume on your iPod.
