8.1 not updating Last Played time/date

Songs are playing normally, but when I check Recently Played it only shows the tracks that played just before installing the update. The Play Count is registering properly, but the time and date played are not.
Also, I'd rather have my old shuffle function back. Genius is an optional function that can be turned off if I choose not to use it and I wish iTunes DJ was the same way.

I'm also no longer getting last played time updated as well as play count not increasing. Also, when I rate a track from the shuffle's list, the rating does not transfer to the original track on disk. This makes manual management of tracks on a shuffle impossible. The play position is also lost.
Apple, this is a critical bug bug, because of loss of data. Please fix it asap.

  • Device plays not updating Last Played field

    I see that this was an issue two years ago -- cannot believe that it has not been fixed.
    Issue: Match updates play count/Last Played field from iTunes computer installs, but not via device plays. Three iPhones, an iPad, and an Apple TV all show this behavior.
    There is simply no point in having Smart Playlists with a Last Played condition (or any time/play count condition) if Match does not receive and update ALL play data. Home Sharing has a device play count option, but that puts me back in the box of sharing one library locally and hoping to sync stuff up manually in all ways I could possibly anticipate. Putting stuff in iCloud -- which initially took forever -- was supposed to make things easier, not harder. Now I see that we have Genius Playlists as an option. How can they possibly not become repetitive unless a play count/Last Played value is stored for them? Or will such data only be device specific, an ever weirder breakdown of the supposed global Match promise?

    My iPhone 5 on iOS 7 seems to be syncing my play history via iTunes Match with no problems.  I have not synced my phone with iTunes on my computer, so it isn't from device syncing. I was definitely at work at 1/8 at 11 am...

  • Not updating last played during sync on Vista

    Hey,
    I just got a new laptop with Vista on it and now my shuffle no longer will update the playlists with last played and last skipped as it did in XP. This is quite important as it determines what songs will go on the iPod and the whole reason why I bought it. Has anyone found a fix to this? Is Apple working on this problem?

    Is it an Apple problem or a Vista problem?

  • IPhone not updating "last played" information in ITunes (Mac OS X 10.4.10)

    When I listen to a podcast on my iPhone in its entirety, it doesn't show up as having been played in iTunes, and the "last played" information in iTunes doesn't change. I have iTunes configured to sync all of my podcasts. This works great on my iPod but not on my iPhone. I am using iTunes 7.3 (54). Does anyone know what the issue is and how to fix it? Thanks.

    I don't know what happened, but it started working properly later on.

  • What the h*** happened to Live Updating of smart playlists in iT 11? I have several smart lists that pull from larger lists based on how recently a song has played. Not happening now. The whole library only updates "last played"

    What the h*** happened to Live Updating of smart playlists in iT 11? I have several smart lists that pull from larger lists based on how recently a song has played. Not happening now. The whole library only updates "last played" for about 1 in 20 songs. This is really screwing up my lists that I use as backgrounds for a lot of activities in my classroom at school.

    FYI, I've found that Live Updating can SORT OF work. It seems if you only have two rules, live upating works (IE, I have one that is a Rating must be 3-5*'s and last played cannot be within the last 8 weeks). Once the song is played it disapears off the playlist. BUT, as soon as I try to add a third rule, it doesn't work anymore! This is unfortunate because two rules really limits the ability of the playlist...
    Cheers,

  • ITunes "Last Played" Time Stamp issues

    I have a late 2011 Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2 & iTunes 11.0 (163).
    Ever since I did the last update to iTunes, the "Last Played" time stamp has not worked.
    In the past, whenever a track finished playing, iTunes would place the time & date in the "Last Played" column. This no longer works.
    I just came back from the local Apple Store, & one of the workers there suggested setting the iTunes Preferences supply the time stamp.
    When I got home, I went through the preferences, but could not find anything for the "Last Played" time stamp.
    Please help.

    Go into iTunes Preferences and turn off crossfade.  Don't ask why it works; do ask apple to fix this bug!

  • Smart playlists and last played time

    If I have a smart playlist, I noticed the last played time of an item does not update if I have launched and played the item from the main area it appears in (like podcasts).
    Any solution for this?
    Thanks.

    Normally the Last Played time updates when the song reaches the end. That should be true no matter where it is launched from. Are you seeing something different?

  • Syncopation Bug? Last Played "Time" between two computers

    First all: I get NO response from Sonzea email "support", the creator of Syncopation. I've sent two emails over past four days.
    Now.. here's the issue:
    I've successfully used Syncopation to keep two iTunes lib's in sync on two computers for a long time. It's always worked great. Hadn't used it for a while, but now when I use it the "time" is off by one hour between Sync software on the two computers.
    This manifests itself in two ways:
    1.) the "Last Played" time is different by exactly one hour when a sync is done. It is "less" by one hour on the computer being synced (the other being the "master"). After a sync it tells me I need to sync ALL 4023 tracks again because it sees the "Last Played" date different between the two. You can sync repeated and it reports that all EVERY TRACK needs updating- it never thinks it is synced.
    2.) BUT, when I reverse the sync and use the OTHER computer/library as the master it tells me the two libs ARE IN SYNC - even when I see that the "Last Played" dates if different by exactly one hour!
    I'm running the latest version's of Syncopation and Mac OSX.
    Anyone other Syncopation users see this? Ideas? Comments?

    I'll just update to mention that I just noticed that the "Remove Duplicates" script isn't actually removing all the duplicates. I'm down from 3-4 copies of everyting to just two, and now I need a way to get rid of this one extra duplicate. Anyone know of any other ways to do this?

  • Windows server 2008 R2 Standard edition time server problem: The computer did not resync because no time data was available.

    Hello,
    I'm trying to get my 2008 R2 server (physical server) to synch with an external time server. I've read other threads on the topic but have not found a solution. I'm sure i'm missing something.
    First the step leading to the error:
    w32tm /resync /rediscover
    Sending resync command to local computer
    The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
    Following is the history: 
    Here are the steps
    C:\>netdom /query fsmo
    Schema master               DC-01.coastal.local
    Domain naming master        DC-01.coastal.local
    PDC                         DC-01.coastal.local
    RID pool manager            DC-01.coastal.local
    Infrastructure master       DC-01.coastal.local
    The command completed successfully.
    next: 
    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:time.nist.gov,0x1 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
    The command completed successfully.
    next:
    net stop w32time && net start w32time
    The Windows Time service is stopping.
    The Windows Time service was stopped successfully.
    The Windows Time service is starting.
    The Windows Time service was started successfully.
    Next:
    w32tm /resync /rediscover
    Sending resync command to local computer
    The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
    Next:
    Did a restart of the server and repeated:
    w32tm /resync /rediscover
    Sending resync command to local computer
    The computer did not resync because no time data was available.
    Next:
    Ran the following:

    Hi,
    You may need to update command w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update, to change the IntranetServer w32time type to nt5ds (this sets the service to pull from the AD).
    For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

  • ITunes Last Played time off by 1 Hour

    Hi Guyz,
    I am on SE Asia Time (GMT+7) and my PC clock is set correctly, but every time I play song in iTUnes, it's Last Played time is off (earlier) by exactly 1 Hour.
    Anyone why it's doing that.
    Example
    Now it's 18:27 and the song will say last played 17:27
    Strange
    Thanks

    Thanks for taking the time to reply
    I just did a "recheck Windows Update" and the only missing (hidden) updates are

    and silverlight and language packs
    I will keep you informed if the US of A Time change solved my Promprem
    Edit: // Maybe iTunes 11 solves everything

  • Edit in datasheet field is not updated in real time

    Hello,
    I have SharePoint 2007, a list viewed in Edit in DataSheet and a workflow attached to the list which updates a field FirstTitle in the list when the item is created. 
    The problem is that, while in Edit in Datasheet view, the field FirstTitle is not updated in real time so the workflow starts again and again because the field is still viewed as empty. The users keep receiving the error message "Your changes conflict
    with those made concurrently by another user" (the other user being actually themselves). So they have to exit Edit in Datasheet and enter again in order to have FirstTitle field refreshed and that is annoying and totally unproductive.  
    I tried from SharePoint designer different checks, I used different actions like wait until item is changed and then stop but nothing worked. Is there any workaround to this ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Teddy

  • When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update the play count?  Is there a setting I need to change?

    When I sync my iPad with iTunes it does not update my play counts.  Is there a way to make this happen?

    Are you using iTunes Match by chance?  I had no problems whatsoever with play counts synching between any of my devices until I started using iTunes Match.  I turned it off and magically my play counts synced.  Once. Hasn't happened again though. 

  • If I update firefox 7 will disable my free youtube freestudio, so I will not update at this time.

    If I update firefox 7 will disable my free youtube freestudio menu1.0.4 so I will not update at this time. I get this message that some of my add ons won't work, & will be disabled with this update. Also it says my yahoo toolbar will be disabled also. Firefox 6 works perfectly for me... I don't need to fix anything with it. How do I stop getting the update msgs. I will update of course when I can keep my youtube freestudio. I don't choose to disable it. I may have to switch to Chrome or back to internet explorer then.. Let me know your thoughts. I am happy with firefox, the way it is right now. I have no problems with it :) Cyrus

    Try asking the Add-ons Developers if they have an Updated version to be compatible with Firefox 7.
