A possible bug in iPod 5G

I've a new iPod 5G 30GB, whilst I love the iPod, the HD lag times are too long (I've a seperate post regarding this at http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=808&start=0) but amoungst this lag problem I appear to have found a bug, or perhaps identified a problem with my iPod. Don't know which...
At times if I select a track from an artist > album > track, (eg track #3) you can see that the iPod trying to start the tune, but after 2-3 seconds it will give up and play the next track instead.
Just to prove to myself that I am not crazy I showed the problem to a workmate but the problem manifested itself further. I was on track #4 and clicked skip 5 times. The iPod took ages (10-12 seconds) just to skip to track #10 but then it wouldn't play track 10 and so skipped itself and tried to play track 11, then tried 12, 13, 14, 15, and finally stopped on track 16 (the last track) and played it.
This auto-skipping process took around 10-15 seconds.
I was hoping that my iPod 5G brothers and sisters could confirm/deny that they too have these problems?
ps. The problem doesn't always occur, but if I try and listen to Destiny's Child with album art (audio was ripped from CD AAC 128Kpbs) it will eventually play up.
pps. I have recently "restored" my iPod to try and solve this.

For those of you who don't have the clicking problem, I had a simular situation. When you tried to play a song it would skip to the next one or a random number ahead. This was because the files were no longer there. It may be caused by the automatic updating being inturrupted before it wiped the HDD. Try restoring the files. If it continues to happen, i suggest getting a third party app. like Anapod. It will tell you what iPod files that are not on your pc and vise vera. Then it allows you to transfer both ways. Also it can restore, repair, and remove bad files. Downside is that it looks like a windows file and does not have a media player. Hope this helps.

  • Possible bug found in Mac Os X Tiger 10.4.11 in conjuction with iPod Touch

    Dears,
    I think I've found a possible bug in Mac Os X version 10.4.11 in conjunction with iPod Touch.
    When the iPod is connected during boot, my Bluetooth hardware fails to be detected. When I restart the portable without the iPod connected, my Bluetooth hardware is recognised & activated again. It is reproduceable.
    1. Attach iPod Touch before starting the MacBook Pro
    2. Boot the Macbook
    3. Bluetooth hardware should be rendered inoperative
    Restore functionality:
    1. Detach the iPod Touch
    2. Reboot the portable
    3. Bluetooth hardware is restarted / recognised.
    Regards

  • Reproducible bug in iPod Classic latest firmware, crash after Contacts

    Reproducible bug:
    You can't enter the contacts item on the iPod Classic 120gb with latest firmware (possibly affects newer iPods too), when you haven't synced any contacts..
    However, if you put the contacts in the main menu (Settings -> Main Menu, then check 'Contacts'), you CAN enter it.. When exiting the Contacts menu (which says you have to sync contacts through itunes first) with the Menu button on the iPod, it instantly resets..
    Reproduced a number of times..
    Message was edited by: Stijn Spijker

    I'd suggest that you report this to apple by calling them or leaving them feedback at:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html
    As if it is a firmware issue there's nothing that can be done until they release an updated edition.

  • Possible Bug In Apex 4.0.2

    Hi Everyone.
    I would like to report what I think is a bug in Apex 4.0.2.
    If you go to my workspace on apex.oracle.com:
    Workspace = EEG
    Username = [email protected]
    Password = galaxy (all lowercase)
    Run the application: 37796 - Elie_Various_Goodies [no credentials are required]
    This app was imported from my 4.0.1 workspace at my job. On the page I created two Date Picker items, P1_BEGIN_DATE and P1_END_DATE. I set them up so that whenever a user selects a begin date, a dynamic action "MANAGE_DATES" fires and automatically sets P1_END_DATE to this selected begin date value. Now when a user goes to select an end date, the displayed calendar starts at the previously selected begin date rather than the default of "Today".
    All of this worked fine on my office (4.0.1) workspace. However, after exporting this app and then importing onto apex.oracle.com, none of this functionality would work. Even worse, whenever I try to select a begin date or even an end date, the selected dates never make it into the date picker fields. Displaying the "Session" window shows these fields as empty.
    It was only after I copied the two date picker fields and also re-created my dynamic action (P1_BEGIN_DATE2, P1_END_DATE2, MANAGE_DATES) did my functionality return.
    This behavior is quite strange. I can only think this is some sort of bug attributed to the export/import process when exporting a 4.0.1 app into a 4.0.2 workspace. I am not sure if this bizarre behavior happens with non-date picker items. Nor am I sure if this beavior would be repeated if I export/import from 4.0.2 into the another 4.0.2 environment.
    Another strange thing I noticed. If I change my date picker items to be "date picker (classic)" type items, the dynamic action does not work at all. This is true in both 4.0.2 and 4.0.1. I'm not sure if this a bug or not. It could be that the classic date picker is just not "javascript" enabled so to speak. If that is true, then it would have been nice if the docs would have warned us about this.
    Has anyone else seen this behavior?
    Thank you.
    Elie

    Hi Joel.
    First let me thank you for the warning about allowing "everyone" access to my workspace.
    You're correct, of course. Anyone could destroy anything within my workspace. I guess I was too trusting especially as I have seen many posts on the Forum where others have given access to their workspace so that responders can offer help. I really should be more discreet about this. Again, thank you. Needless to say, I have changed my password.
    With respect to the possible bug, the MANAGE_DATES dynamic action is intended to be a submit page because that is the only way I can see to get BOTH the P1_END_DATE date picker item as well as the end date textual field to be assigned the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE. I tried to use a dynamic action in which javascript sets the value of the end date textual field to the selected P1_BEGIN_DATE value. This works without the need to submit the page. Unfortunately, this does not cause the P1_END_DATE date picker item to default to this value. Instead, the default remains at today's date. This is why I finally resorted to a dynamic action that submits the page whenever a new value is selected (that is, a "change" event) from the P1_BEGIN_DATE date picker item.
    All of this works in my office 4.0.1 environment. However, I was puzzled when this fails under 4.0.2 on the hosted web site at apex.oracle.com. This is why I posted a "possible" bug in 4.0.2.
    I hope this all makes sense.
    One more thing, as already mentioned in my original post, this "defaulting a date picker" functionality does NOT work at all for the "classic" date picker items in both 4.0.1 nor in 4.0.2. I realize one can implement this functionality (I' guessing) my using, say, a "onChange" javascript call to submit the page. It's just funny that the "classic" date picker items are not acted upon by the dynamic action MANAGE_DATES that submits the page.
    Thank you.

  • Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

    Hello,
    I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities.  Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
    My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format.  Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
    To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction.  I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
    Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
    Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
    It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
    Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
    Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
    Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
    Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
    Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
    I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
    I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request -  save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
    Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
    Paul

    Hello,
    I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
    I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
    I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
    Thanks again for any help related to this issue.  If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks! 
    Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

  • Is it possible for my ipod to harbor a virus?

    I understand that it cannot actually get a virus itself, but when I decided to sync the ipod to my PC  and finally update it (still at 4.2 :( ) , an icon appeared onto the taskbar saying dowload complete.  I looked at it, it told me it was itunes but it was not published by apple.  It described the download as a secure browser to go on certain websites or something like that... But anyways is it possible that my ipod transfered a virus to my computer.
    I've also heard to factory reset it, but, I can't without plugging it back in.

    Okay what you said about the permision part reminded me of accidentally clicking on an ad, and my blue notification screen came up (all notifications are off so it wasnt a message) and said something but since I was already tapping the screen to go somewhere else before the page loaded up, but because of that I hit one of its buttons and it went away without me reading it.  Would it still prevent it from storing things onto my ipod? 
    Sorry I don't mean to sound stupid I'm just not tech savvy.

  • Possible bug: Saving array with extended and double precision to spreadshee​t

    If one concatenates a double precision array and an extended precision array with the "build array" vi and then saves using "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi any digits to the right of the decimal place are set to zero in the saved file. This happens regardless of the format signifier input (e.g. %.10f) to the  "Write to Spreadsheet File" vi.
    I am on Vista Ultimate 32 bit and labview 9.0
    This is a possible bug that is easily circumvented by converting to one type before combining arrar to a spreadsheet. Nonetheless, it is a bug and it cost me some time.
    Solved!

    Spreadsheet save bug.vi ‏9 KB

    Hi JL,
    no, it's not a bug - it's a feature
    Well, if you would look more closely you would recognize the "Save to Spreadsheet" as polymorphic VI. As this polymorphic VI doesn't support EXT numbers internally (it only supports DBL, I64 and String) LabVIEW chooses the instance with most accuracy: I64 (I64 has 64 bits precision, DBL only 53...). So your options are:
    - set the instance to use as DBL (by right-click and "Select type...")
    - make a copy of this VI, save it with a different name and make it support EXT numbers (don't rework the polymorphic VI as you would break compatibility with other LV installations or future revisions)
    And yes, those coercion dots always signal some conversions - you should atleast check what's going on there...

  • Possible bug? formatted number 0 displays as  4,294,967,295

    This is really two questions in one. First, I have a routine
    that sometimes provides a result of 0, which is *sometimes*
    displayed in an AdvancedDataGrid column as 4,294,967,295, which I'm
    assuming is somehow a meaningful number (largest int?). Anyway, I
    have an ADG with a column defined as:
    <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn headerText="Remaining work"
    labelFunction="rem_work_fmt" textAlign="right" />
    The labelFunction called is shown below:
    private function rem_work_fmt(item:Object,
    column:AdvancedDataGridColumn):String
    var num:String =
    numberFormatter.format(item.get_remaining_work());
    trace ("result: " + num);
    return num;
    The trace output prints: "result: 0" as expected, but the
    number displayed in the grid is sometimes 0 and sometimes
    4,294,967,295.
    More weirdness, this only happens to the last column in the
    ADG. I call the same format logic on a different column and have
    never seen the wrong result. Also, the same underlying function
    "get_remaining_work()" is called elsewhere on the same data and the
    result is correctly displayed in a text field as 0.
    Second question, I've run into some other possible bugs,
    which I haven't reported because I found a work around. How does
    one do that in the beta program?

  • A possible *bug* in java jcombobox

    Hi all,
    I think i found a possible bug in java jcombobox .. i am sure some of you must have already experienced it..
    supposedly you put a jcombobox in a jpanel
    returned the panel from a method to a calling method..
    and that method adds it to another panel that it had created to a frame..
    and if this happens dynamicaly at runtime, as only after u click a button..
    meaning : without adding the combobox or the immediate parent panelto the contentpane .. directly..
    Then,
    your combox's keylistener may not catch events fired.
    .. this has happened to me many times.. and always i could only find a way out
    .. by adding the combobox to panel that is loaded during startup itself and is
    .. not returned through a method call.
    Your opinions please ?
    'Harish.

    All components in a UI are created at run-time.
    When you create your JFrame you call pack() to align and resize the UI. This validates all the components, and sets the default focus on what ever component should have the focus at start up.
    When you create components and add them as children of another component you have to validate the child and parent. This can be done by calling JComponent.validate()
    As for keylisteners not getting called, this might be fixed if you call grabFocus on the new combobox. I can't see a reason why any listener would stop working.
    For me to really understand what your talking about. I'd need to see source code reproducing this problem.

  • Can someone confirm a possible bug with Universal Access?

    Can someone confirm a possible bug with Universal Access?
    I have a Mac Pro 3,1, 10.7.1 but if you could confirm or not this possible bug with any model.
    In Energy Saver preference pane:
    Set Mac to never sleep.
    Set Display Sleep to ~2 minutes.
    In Desktop & Screen Saver:
    Set screen saver to start at ~1 minutes.
    In Universal Access:
    Check Enable access for assistive devices.
    Check radio button Zoom to On.
    Zoom in window not checked.
    Confirm that Zoom works by pressing:
    ⌥⌘= (option, command, =).
    Set screen back to normal by pressing ⌥⌘-.
    Let screen sleep after screen saver starts.
    Wake screen and see if ⌥⌘= still works.
    Thanks … Ken

    Other than the time intervals (smallest Screen Saver kick-in is 3 minutes), it works fine for me - at least I can still zoom in/out after waking the display.
    Tested on two different MacBook Pro models in 10.7.1

  • What are the changes / enhancements / or possible bugs in LR 5 Auto Tone

    Can anyone explain what, if any, changes, enhancements, or possible bugs were introduced in the functionality of Auto Tone since LR ver. 5.0. The reason I ask is that I get different results for the Exposure and Contrast adjustments when applying Auto Tone (using ver. 5.3) from the results  (using ver.5.0) shown in the book "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 CIB" in the "Using Quick Develop in the Library module" section, step 4 on page 37. (This difference in results between LR versions was confirmed by the authors of LR5CIB.)

    I'm not sure about any new bugs but the radical exposure mis-calculations have been improved. I had photos that were over exposed to 5 (and even 10, believe it or not) that were exposed to a more appropriate 2 or so following the improvements (in Lr5.2 if memory serves). It's also less likely to radically underexpose.
    Enjoy, (in my opinion, it's much better)
    I think there may have even been further improvement in Lr5.3 but I can't swear to it - seems to preserve a little more contrast than in 5.2 - could be my imagination..

  • Copy and paste adjustment  problem/ possible bug.

    Hi all
    I have just encountered a very strange problem/ possible bug.
    I have been working on a file in photoshop cs5 that had come from lightroom 5.3. This was then saved (automaticaly becomes tiff file in Lightroom). I then wanted to make some more adjustments to it in lightroom (using local adjustment clarity). I then tried to copy the settings of the adjustment brush  from the tiff to the original raw file. This is where it gets very strange. The adjustments are copied but they are rotated ccw by 90 degrees!  I can replicate this every time.
    Could someone else try to see if this problem exists on their catalogs or if its a corrpution problem my end.

    Noted on the bug, thanks.

  • Is it at all possible to move ipod music from a mac to a pc?

    ...without a CD burner on the mac?
    Here's the problem...
    My son wants to burn a CD of some of his ipod music. We had originally intalled the ipod on a mac. However, the mac disk is full, and we haven't been able to install an external cd burner.
    We have several pcs with cd burners, so I thought I could move the music over to the pc using the ipod. It did create a "shared" library, but you can't do anything with that but listen to it. I reformatted the ipod to pc format, but can't put the music back on the ipod.
    I should be able to reformat the ipod back to mac, then reload the songs on there, but unless I can free up enough space to load the cd burner software, I'm kind of out of luck?

    "is it at all possible to move ipod music from a mac to a pc?"
    Windows can't read the HFS+ file system that a Mac uses.
    If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.

  • On-demand process in page processing - possible bug?

    Hi
    Came across a possible bug today, certainly not a big one and unlike to affect many people but...
    1. Create an on-demand application process
    2. Create an on-demand page process that calls the application process
    3. Delete the application process.
    Now at this point, the page process is still available for editing/deleting etc.
    4. Copy the application.
    In the new version of the application, the page process shows as plain text in the application builder with no link to edit or delete it and when the page is run, it predictably fails at the processing point of the page process when it tries to find the application process (the id from wwv_flow_processing is shown in the error for the old application process).
    The only way to get rid of the page process is to select 'Edit All' and then select and delete it - then everything is hunky dory again.
    A minor issue I know, but maybe someone will have the same issue one day and stumble across this thread :)
    Cheers
    Ben

    At the moment I cannot say if your link can help. Right now the call of the On demand Process looks like this:
    Inside annonymous PL/SQL Region:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    get = new htmldb_Get(null,'||:APP_ID||'.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=F_REPORT_NAME',0);
    gReturn = get.get();
    document.write(gReturn);
    </script>
