5G iPod Software 1.1 Update - More BUGS than FIXES!

I just updated my 5G (mac format) iPod to software version 1.1 and right away noticed that someone bungled up BIG TIME!
To start with -- holding down the MENU button doesn't toggle the backlight anymore!
Next -- try clicking in the NOW PLAYING MENU quickly with the CENTRE BUTTON... Are you seeing stars yet?? The menu repeats itself endlessly.
I dunno how Apple could have gotten this so horribly wrong. I expect iPod Software Update 1.2 for the 5G iPods tomorrow!!

Has anyone found the Video problem yet?
Try playing a video, wait for 20 seconds and then a big fat nothing. Video freezes and then it starts to play but without sound. Has anyone found this to happen. I have re-installed the software several times with the same result.
Hey Apple are you listening? Thanks a lot for screwing up my iPod. Time to think of a new brand.

IPod software v1.2 v1.3 bugs -- cannot shuffle by albums

I found my iPod nano can not shuffle songs by albums under correct setting after I upgrade the iPod software from v1.1 into v1.2 or v1.3. The only way to fix this problem is to restore iPod software v1.1. I hope Apple Computer staff can find out this bug and fix it with v1.4, thx.

IPod Software - needed after update?

Quick question about the iPod software updater. Does anyone know if I really need it on my computer to run my iPod on the computer? It takes up 171 MB on my work computer and I think that's what is slowing the computer down. It's by far the largest file on the computer.
Also -is it okay to delete the old updates? They also take up 170+ MB.
Cheers.

You need the current one on your computer (2006-06-28). Keep it there.
You can uninstall the older iPod Updaters. The only "con" to this is that if you ever want to use an older version of iPod software (such as 1.0 or 1.1.1), you won't be able to.

IPod software needs to give more shuffle options

Hi,
I'm pretty sure current iPod software can't do this so I think what I'm posting here is an enhancement request. However if you know how I can achieve what I want I will love you forever!
My iPod listening time is split roughly 50/50 between Albums and Playlists. When I listen to an album I want the tracks to play in the proper order but when I choose a playlist I want the songs to be shuffled. Right now I have to manually change Settings... Shuffle every time and it's a real pain.
Apple: could we have more shuffle options such as
Shuffle:
Albums = No
Playlists = Songs
Thanks

You are correct, the iPod has no such setting.

Sender JDBC adapter SELECT / UPDATE issue - updates more rows than selected

Hi,
We have configured a Sender JDBC Adapter to poll records from an Oracle table based on a flag field and then update the flag for the selected records. When tested in DEV and QA environments (where test data comes in intermittently and not in huge volumes), itu2019s working fine.
Both SELECT and UPDATE queries written in the Sender JDBC adapter are getting properly executed and are changing the status of the flag for the selected records from Y to N once read from the database.
select * from <table> where flag = 'N'.
update <table> set flag = 'Y' where flag = 'N'.
But in the PROD environment (with records getting updated in the database every second), after XI executes the SELECT query and just before the UPDATE query is executed, new records come into the Oracle table with status flag 'N". So when the UPDATE query runs just after the SELECT query, then these unselected records also get updated to 'Y'. Thus these records never get into the resultset and hence XI and thus remain unprocessed.
So when XI does a SELECT and UPDATE on the Oracle DB table and concurrently there is an INSERT happening into the table from the other end, the JDBC sender adapter is picking up a certain number of records but updating the status of more records than it picked up.
So how does XI deal with such a common scenario without dropping records?
Thanks,
Vishak

The condition being checked is the same for both SELECT and UPDATE statements.
Initially I tried setting transaction isolation levels on the database to repeatable_read and serializable but it was throwing me a java.sql.SQLException error saying that these transaction levels were not valid.
I asked for these transaction level permissions for the XI user from my DBA but the DB I am accessing provides only a view into other databases and so it's not possible.

Is Live Update helpful yet, or still more problems than fixes?

Hi
my 180 has been running decently for a while now. The only thing that still makes me want to hang myself is this asinine problem with the sound card occasionally disappearing, requiring an unplugged reboot.
I shut off live update a while back because it seemed to create more problems than it fixed. can anyone confirm whether there is anything in there that addresses the sound card issue?
Also, there appears to be a new BIOS featuring an option to "Enable USB Keyboard Latency". I am currently using a wireless USB keyboard and mouse with no problems. Do I care about the new BIOS?
Here's my current version info (mine on the left, MSI's on the right)
BIOS- 3.3 3.5
Live VGA Driver- 4467 6681
all other are up to date with live update. I have been very gun shy about letting it update these, since it seemed to cause so much trouble over the summer. Can anyojne shed some light on whether these updates are necessary?
tia!

okay, i guess it is a deluxe model. i initially thought the deluxes were the ones that could run dvds in hifi mode.
anywho, it finally lost the sound card again. it was an interesting feeling being excited about it for once, because i could continue this thread.
the speaker icon in the taskbar disappeared, and the nvidia drivers vanished from "sound, video, and game controllers" device manager (both nforce codec and nforce processor). msi live update doesn't find anything new, but just for giggles i clicked "update driver" from the properties tab on both, and windows was able to find new drivers.
at this point, i assume that noone has found a solution, so I'll keep updating this thread for those who are fellow sufferers.
Another thought on the heat issue, the outside temps hit 66 degrees fahrenheit today (who said january?), so i wonder if that raised the temp in the cabinet just enough?

Ipod freezes at Restoring Ipod software during ios5 update

I have a 4g ipod touch and I tried to update it and everything went fine so i left it alone. When i came back, the bar on the ipod touch screen was full but the bar in itunes was really close to being done and it said Restoring Ipod Data, after a while i forced quit itunes and the ipod shows the connect to itunes sign. Every time i plug it back in it does the same thing and is stuck. Will this most probably be fixed after apple fixes the bugs?

Hi,
Still no luck with this. The latest software does not fix the problem. Can anyone help?!

Ipod software won't update

I downloaded the new ipod updater and now when I go to update the ipod it won't allow me to click either update or restore. How can I update the ipod?

IPod software problem, not updater.

I have a seemingly very bad problem with my 15GB I think 2G iPod, it won't properly connect to my computer, but it will connect. It shows up as a disk image on my computer sometimes, and as an iPod others.
Anyway, it tells me I need to reformat the iPod, which I have tried several times, I have tried the Disk Utilities erase too, neither have worked, it keeps telling me that it can't be ejected. So, I decided to try and use Terminal to erase it. I used every rm variation I could think of, all of them though told me that the "Device is busy." even the sudo version didnt work on that...
The songs and all the data are on my iPod but it just won't connect now. It had been fine until just last night. I had updated it last around a week and a half ago, but it just wont work now!
Please help, its really getting me angry.

The device is busy message usually can be handled by going into Terminal, running Top, then finding the PID of the offending process and killing it using that number, with sudo in front for the first one:
"sudo kill 426"
or whatever. At least that works when a CD is bad and it gets hung up, not allowing me to eject it. Look for the busy process that's hogging the processor. It's worth a shot.
What file were you attempting to erase, exactly?

New iPod software worth the update??

I have a 4th gen click wheel...it works...ok...the odd glitch here and there....I know how bad an "upgrade" can turn out...just wondering if there are any problems/warnings/suggestions for the new update??
Thank you

There is no new update. It's the same firmware, just a new updater to add support for the Nano. If you already had the latest firmware, don't bother, this won't add anything for you.
This latest one (9-23) adds a couple bugfixes for the shuffle. No biggie.

N97 V2 music player has more bugs than a hundred y...

My problem is back!
This is what I have done in the past hour.
Exported my contacts to vcf onto memory card. Removed the card.
*#7370# - hard reset
Went through all that... Then remembered I hadn't wiped mass storage.
Wiped mass storage (Which it kept complaining it couldn't do until I removed all the default active apps on the front screen). After removing them it eventually formatted it
*#7370# - hard reset
Let it get settled...
Connected to USB, did a firmware update check. 2.00.19, no update available. Disconnected USB.
Removed all the front screen **bleep**, added shortcut 2, put my normal shortcuts onto it.
Added my wifi destination
Opened the browser, went to google.co.uk via my wifi, added that as bookmark
Put the memory card back in (there are no apps on it, I never got round to using it for anything).
Imported my contacts back from the memory card.
Went into music player, zero tracks shown. Good.
Connected USB, started Nokia Music PC application (latest version, had checked). Right clicked on one album 13 tracks.
Let it send them over to the N97.
Disconnected phone. Started N97's music player. It says music library corrupt, scanning... Says 13 tracks found.
Artists shows one artist, 13 tracks. Albums shows 1 album. All looks good.
Go into the album, pick on a track, starts playing.
Volume control does nothing. Touch volume control does nothing. Headset remote control, volume, forward and reverse do nothing. Touch screen pause/play forward and reverse do work, but there is no way to control volume.
I've screwed up this music player app before the Nokia system has even got round to sending me the Welcome text message (which I have seen too many times!).
Okay, I'm going to write the next bit line by line as I do it... So bear with me... It's step by step. You never know, it might help anyone that gives a damn (Nokia hopefully), fix it!
*#7780# - soft reset
Front screen now just shows shortcuts1 and 2, but the shortcuts themselves have switched back to Nokia's defaults.
Music player volume now works!
Connect to USB, send another mp3 album. PC app says (and shows on the %age bar) transferring 5 tracks. Album has 18. Nokia Music system tray icon says complete after 5, but the little arrows shows things are still being transferred. Waited for them to finish. Click the N97 icon and it's showing both albums, with all 18 tracks the second one really does have.
Disconnect USB
Go into Music library on N97, no auto refresh message. Showing only the original album with 13 tracks.
"Options\refresh library" nothing shows as scanning, just appear straight back at the artist,album,playlist option screen. Albums still shows just the first one.
Option\music library details says 13 tracks
Playback and volume still work.
Using the file manager, mass storage, music there's my 2nd artist, the album, and all the mp3 files. I can click them and play them. Volume still works.
Select original (found) album, select delete. Everything shows 0, even though 2nd album is there in the mass memory, file mgr shows it. First artist and albums folders are still there, but empty (Nice house keeping Nokia).
Reconnect USB, Nokia Music just shows the "invisible" 2nd album, and will play it.
Pick a 3rd album of 11 tracks... Send that to N97.. No progress bar or anything shown, just wait for the arrows to stop flashing and then confirm N97 is showing two albums (the invisible on and new one) on the PC app.
Disconnect USB.
Back on the N97... Apps, Music.. Says Music Library 11 songs (that's the 3rd album)... Go into it..
Albums (no songs)
All songs (no songs)
Artists: The artist from 3rd album is shown... 11 songs!
Click it... Shows the album name, 11 songs.
Click the album, and click the first track to play it... Long delay of a few seconds...
Starts playing... Volume not working again!
Try refresh library... again, nothing, no progress bar...
No change, no volume control.
Now here's the really weird bit... If I go and find the mp3 file on the mass storage, and play it from there, volume control works! Come back through the music play app, play the same track, volume won't work.
*#7780# - soft reset
Welcome message, yeah yeah... Ooooh, very fast confirmation text message...
Apps, Music, Music Library (11 songs), go into that, click Albums.... "Cannot perform whilst USB connected" **bleep**?I disconnected that ages ago when i said I did. After that every attempt to go into Albums dumps me back to the Music app showing "Last player - blank" "Music Library 11" etc etc...
Exit all the way out and try to go back in...Artists does the "USB connected" error. Albums just dumps me out. Playlists says "File corrupt". All songs say "(no songs)". Podcasts and Genres say "USB connected", composers "General system error" and after that I get a couple of other system errors from other options and then it just dumps me back out.
*#7780# - soft reset
Ovi welcome... blah blah...
Apps, music, music library (11 songs), go into it, option\refresh... Ooooh, something happens, a progress bar! 18 files added! That's 3rd album...
Albums show both... Artists show both
Pick one for playback... Volume control is back!
Right... Time to try a different tack...
Connect USB, mass storage mode this time (all previous attempts have been PC suite mode).
Create a now folder in music for the artist name (as stored in ID3 tag), create subfolder in that for the Album name (as stored in ID3). Copy mp3 files.
Eject USB device, wait for windows to confirm... It does.
Disconnect USB cable.
App\music\Music Library (29 songs - Thats the two previous albums). Go into it, previous tracks shown, playback/volume okay.
Refresh library works again... Now 3 albums, volume works.
Back to USB (mass storage mode).
This time deliberately doing the storage structure wrong... \music\albumname\mp3s (normally \music\artist\albumname\mp3s).
Music library still showing the 48 tracks from the first 3 albums... Seems to open a bit slower... Still works though.
Refresh library... 13 files added...
4 albums... All working...
Looking with file mgr from badly arranged folder is still as I made it... I guess the Nokia Music PC app creates the tree format, and the N97 doesn't actually need it.
Okay, proof of pudding test...
Connect via USB (mass storage).
Delete the album I created with the mangled folder structure.
Copy 20 folders of mp3 albums across using just windows file manager to the mass storage drive's music folder.
Eject USB storage device from windows....
Oh... Up until now I was almost certain I would be able to use N97 as an MP3 player as long as I avoided the Nokia Music PC app...
Apps\Music\music library shows 61 songs, which is what it had...
Go into it, click albums and I'm getting the USB device connected message. It's not, and the icon isn't even showing on the phone, so I can't go into the player to see if volume works.
Refresh isn't displaying anything, or doing anything I can see. Playlists say the file is corrupt...
*#7780# - Soft reset
Apps\Music\music library (61 songs).. go in, "Repairing corrupted library. Searching for music and podcasts"
After a little while... 2 hundred and something found...
Yup, all there...
Guess what...
Volume control is screwed again!
Manually telling it to scan for new tracks doesn't do anything.
*#7780# - Soft reset
Apps\Music\music library (276 songs)... Go in "Repairing corrupted library....."
2 seconds later "Search complete 0 file(s) added"
All albums there, still no volume control.
Okay, that enough... No more...
Hopefully that is enough to give Nokia a clue as to what is wrong, and may I just make a slight suggestion.
TEST WITH MORE THAN HALF A DOZEN TRACKS YOU **^(*&)(*)(*(*£$%^*(#!
I'm off to buy a 7lb club hammer.

Last night I had a thought...
I wondered if the N97's Music player was getting upset when scanning my music because I had the jpg of the album cover in the folder with it (I tend to do that). As I hadn't bothered reloading any music since my last hard reset I thought I would give it a try.
I removed all non-mp3 files from my music folders.
Connected N97 in PC Suite mode
Started Nokia Music PC app and transferred one album. Let it finish, closed the PC Nokia Music app, gave it a few seconds to settle, disconnected the N97 and had a look.
It appeared in the music player and worked.
Ooooh, right, in for a penny, in for a pound as they say... I connected it back up and sent over another 6 albums. Again closed the Nokia Music app... Waited a few seconds and disconnected the N97.
Went and had a look... "Library corrupt, scanning.... blah blah"... Oh dear, here we go again. But no, a progress bar actually appeared, and after a minute it said "0 file(s) added", but they were all there. All the album art appeared (I'd already embedded that in the mp3 files days ago). All the albums, all the music.
They played, and the volume worked!
Yay! Thinks me... Solved... And goes to bed a happy man.
I set my alarm (on the phone) for the morning and turn the phone off so nobody can phone me before my alarm (which really screws up my sleep!).
This morning the alarm goes off.
I hit stop. It asks if I want to turn the phone on, I say yes.
It asks for my lock code (which I have enabled). I enter it. It says code correct.
Flash of white on the screen... and it asks for my lock code again, which I enter... It says correct again.
This time I get the Nokia tune.
It comes up to the normal front screen, jumps itself onto the application screen, throws up a system error and reboots.
It comes back up (without asking for a pin) and this time settles at the front screen looking for all the world like a working phone... A text message arrives to prove at least that's working.
Hmmm... I wonder about my music...
Well it's all there... But guess what... Volume control doesn't work again!
Oh and clicking "Podcasts", of which I have zero, still produces, and has always produced (even straight after a hard reset), the message "Out of memory, please remove something"... Pressing it again produces "System Error". After that nothing in the Music Library menu works, all produce "System Error". You have to close it and restart to get anything in Music Library to "work".
I wouldn't say I am short of memory. DeviceInfo (from moubail.com) Shows
C: 32.68 MB free
E: 30116.46 MB free
F: (8Gig card) 7120.86 MB free
RAM: 48.83 MB free.
I keep my C: drive clear of everything. Even my text message storage has been switched to E: (not that I have may since all the hard/soft reboots. Most of them are the "Welcome to nokia" message. Anything that gives me the option to install to another "drive" gets put onto E:
I haven't installed any of the 3 files offered in since the hard reset "SW Update", N-Gage, Nokia Messaging or Ovi Contacts.

E52: MORE BUGS THAN WATERGATE

I have had around 3 hours to try out this phone since taking delivery, and WHAT a disappointment. Bugs found so far include:
Browser: Toolbar does not function; Full screen mode does not hold. Go back a page, load another bookmark, it reverts to normal screen mode.
Text Input: Word auto-completion will not turn off.
Download Files: Downloads keep stopping and I have to reload. Zip files end up somewhere in Quick Office!
OTHER ISSUES
Signal: Holds the signal very poorly. Keeps switching between 3G and GSM. Rarely more than 2-3 bars on signal strength, always at full strength on my E51.
Build Quality: Nothing special. Awful slippery feel to the phone in your hand, and the battery cover has a particularly unpleasant and unnatural feel to it. Nowhere near as solid or robust as my E51.
FP2: My first experience with this, so what's the big deal? First impressions are that it is just too gimmicky, having to go through 4-5 procedures when one sufficed on FP1.
THIS PHONE I DO NOT LIKE! Rant over! lol

E52 is not a phone. This is DISASTER!
And Nokia make nothing about this.
Throw this piece of junk away asap!

New Permissions messages after Security Update/more curious than concerned

I just installed the latest security update 2010-001. I repaired permissions afterward and encountered messages I've not seen before. I got "Permissions Repair complete."
2010-01-24 10:14:37 -0500: ACL found but not expected on "Applications/Utilities".
2010-01-24 10:14:37 -0500: ACL found but not expected on "Applications".
2010-01-24 10:14:37 -0500: ACL found but not expected on "Library".
I googled around a bit and what I found interesting was the majority of threads relating to this date back to 2008 after the release of 10.5.2. The consensus then seemed to be these messages were completely harmless. I did find one very recent topic though, that reported these messages appearing just after the current security update. I'm wondering if anyone else has now encountered these after updating?
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg56086.html
Not that I understand ACLs very well, but I'd like to know what might the consequences or implications be of these Permissions having been changed--if this is what has happened--by the update. (Or, probably less likely, is DU after updating, now set to find things that were always there?)
I don't think I've done anything else that would account for these. (I didn't repair Permissions just before running the update, so I can't say conclusively they weren't there before--although I have done Permissions fairly recently. Why might these be appearing now? Thanks.

these messages are harmless and should be ignored. there is nothing new about that.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
the ACLs present on those folders should be there. those repair permissions messages are just false positives due to errors in permissions database. just about every update introduces more such errors.
if you want to see the actual ACLs on those folders run this in terminal
ls -lade /Applications /Applications/Utilities /Library
all of these folders should have "everyone deny delete" ACLs to prevent accidental deletion.

Ovi maps - more bugs than a tramp's vest?

I cannot save a route as a Favourite in OviMaps, what is wrong?
I log in to OviMaps, I can access my Favourites.
I create a route, in this instance abroad, with 10 waypoints.
I select "save", it asks me to choose a collection, I do, it asks me to sign in... again? I do, End of story. The screen greys out a bit and that's it, no further response.
If I go back to Favourites I cannot get there anymore: the Favourites tab is blank although allegedly I'm still sign in.
Help me before I give up on Nokia after 10 years and go over to the Dark Side. Nokia is the only application I ever used with problems, and with Nokia software I notice the problems are continual - anything on Nokia maps performs either very poorly or not at all. Or am I alone in tthis? Even as a loyal Nokia customer I begin to doubt my sanity - was this software ever tested?
