Anybody EVER hear of this one????
hi everyone. i'm desperate for help and appreciate any assistance here. i have a 60 GB iPod, and i have about 30 GB of music on iTunes and the iPod. all of a sudden, at the bottom of my iTunes, it says i have 8,663 songs (which is correct), but that the total GB count is 4,381.02 GB which is physically impossible!!! to top it off, when i connected my iPod, the program, thinking it had over four thousand gigs of music to put into a 60 gig iPod, chose to sync some songs and delete thousands of others.
to make a long story short, i lost the vast majority of my songs on my iPod and even after uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, the program still says i have over 4,000 GB of music from the 8,000 songs. i can't find help or answers anywhere. if anyone can help me out, i'd be eternally grateful.
thanks.
lennycarl,
This article discusses errors that can occur when other drives are confused with the iPod by Windows. This can include network drives, external drives, or hidden recovery partitions that the computer maker has put on the drive. The article also links to Microsoft's knowledge base where Microsoft discusses the Windows OS issue that causes it.

Hope this helps,

When I send an email from one of my accounts, it shows up as sent from another account. Does anyone know how to correct this?
As Ernie said, you need to create an SMTP server for each gmail account with the correct username and password. Be sure the correct server for each account is listed in the SMTP box and check the box to use only that server for that account.
Gmail's default behavior when sending from one account through another account's outgoing server is to change the address to the server which is used. Same goes if I send a message from my ATT/Yahoo account and use gmail's server to send through. It will change the ATT address to the gmail address.
There is an option in gmail's settings under the Account's tab under Send Mail As. You can add different gmail or other accounts such as Yahoo to this and choose how the gmail server handles it. You can set it to send as the sending account and not change the address. I've used this many times for my ATT account for sending through gmail when ATT accounts were having problems.
You can add the different accounts to each gmail account you have. -
Anyone ever hear of this? (Primus)
My company advised they would be transitioning the
knowledgebase to a new platform called "Nova". I have asked friends
in the tech writing field and no one has heard of such a creature.
I did find a "Solutions Management" tool that looks to be geared
toward financial, but that is it.
Anyone have any thoughts?Hi skoldpadda
Perhaps you should investigate internally created tools? I
was once asked back to a former employer. Among the listed
"requirements" for the job was an application called "SiteBuilder".
The hiring Manager thought this was an application anyone in the
webmastering world would know. But it was simply something the
company had developed internally.
Those are my thoughts on the issue... Rick -
I've made plenty of music cd's w/o a problem.Now when I try to mix 2 songs together, perfectly on beat ,when I play back 1 track is way off beat.I thought I was going crazy but I took the exact same song and matched it perfect and still when it plays back it's way off beat.Can anyone tell me what's going on?thnx
This certainly twilight zone stuff.
You could try a reinstall but I would be surprised if that was it.
Let me see if I have this right
You get 2 songs (any songs doesn't matter which ones right?) and you visually? line them up?
Then when you play them one of them dramtaically slows down or speeds up after starting off at the right tempo?
Does having more than one track loaded cause this?
Having 3 tracks make it worse or the same?
Ok then if you have a metronome of some sort play each of the files in windows media and get their tempo (bpm)
Now play them in AA but alternatively mute each one
Swap the tracks over (ie move track 1 to track 2 and vice versa)
Play them again
What are the properties of each track are they the same eg 16/44.1
My money is on the tracks mainly because I don't think its possible for AA to play at different rates unless the tracks (eg wav files) are recorded at different rates eg 48 vs 44.1)
I know it all sounds crazy but I'm just trying to narrow down the problem - if you can't find the cause you got no chance of finding the cure :-) -
HELP PLEASE! Home directory is full???? Anyone ever hear of this before??
I try to open Mail and this is the pop-up that I get:
"Mail cannot update your mailboxes because your home directory is full. You must free up space in your home folder before using Mail. Delete unneeded documents or move documents to another volume."
And then it QUITS.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to remedy this????? This just started after using Tiger for about a week. I cleaned out my emails last week and deleted unused folders too. There should be gobs of space.Quit Mail first and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Copy the Mail folder and place the copy on the Desktop for backup purposes.
If you are denied copying the MaIl folder, go to Home > Library > Mail > Envelope Index. Move the Envelope Index file to the Desktop. Copy the Mail folder and place the copy on the Desktop.
Launch Mail and you will be prompted to import all mailboxes located at Home > Library > Mail. Select OK and allow the import process to complete. A new Envelope Index file will also be created within the Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail.
After confirming all mailboxes were successfully imported and are available, you can delete the copy of the Mail folder and the old Envelope Index file from the Desktop - if you were required to move the old Envelope Index file from the Mail folder in order to copy it.
This should resolve the problem. -
"Unknown BIB error", anybody ever actually fix this?
So I haven't used AE for about a year. I have V7 but had installed a trial of CS5.5 and that has expired so I uninstalled it. But V7 is now telling me "After Effects warning: Unknown BIB Error, Invalid encoding BRV 0.
The only thing I can find searching the web is "you have a FONT problem, uninstall the problem font" or similary vague responses.
This makes absolutely no sense. WHICH font? Come on Adobe, can't we give me a solution? It worked fine for over a year, and after installing CS5.5 too.
thanksThank you Mylenium for the response.
I had not yet uninstalled CS5.5 when the error began. The only thing I can think of that changed (since it last worked) was the CS5.5 trial ended. Could it be that disabled something on the system that is being used by other programs? The other option is that an Apple software update changed something. That is all that I can think of, this is on a Mac running OSX. I only use this system for Final Cut and AE. Otherwise I really don't use Apple, it is a dedicated system.
Now that I have a paying job that needs AE, I have to turn the work down. Especiale Bummer in this economy.
So if there is something mysterious going on with the fonts, surely there is a way to locate and repair it(?!?!) Can I uninstall the fonts and reinstall them? Should I reinstall AE CS5.5?
I'm thinking there are hundreds of people who have experienced this, but every instance I can find on the web, there is no final resolution. I don't want to let this go like that as it slips silently into the darkness. Someone please help find a solution,
thank, Tom -
Help please. Following the most recent update my voicemail receives incoming messages but I cannot play them. I cannot access visual voicemail either. Also imessaging no longer sends messages. So I have had to resort to text with my work colleagues.
Contact your phone carrier for visual voicemail issues.

Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?
One more thing to try. Double click on the home button. Scroll in that bottom line of icons (swipe finger to left) to the app that are all white. Hold your finger on the app until the - sign appears. Tap it to close the app. Hopefully it will then show up correctly. (As they say about chicken soup curing a cold, "can't hurt")

Why do I keep gettin a message when trying to sync my iPod nano to mitunes this ipod is synced to another library, I have only ever had this one iPod and it's always been on the same PC
Sometimes a computer glitch wil cause that problem. You just have to restore the iPod and resync.

Dear Iphone fans,
Recently, somehow I can't hear sounds when talking on my iphone4 either when calling or being called. When asking them later, they said they can hear me but my sound become very low and unclear. And I can't hear a thing at that time. Could anyone tell me how I could fix the problem.
I've bought this one for half a year. I need your help~

TS1702 iBooks won't load PDF files any more on my Ipad2. Anybody seen this one before?
Hello All,
iBooks won't load PDF files any more.
I have a lot of PDF files so I thought I reached a maximum number of files or space so I deleted a lot of old files but this did not help.
I rebooted, synced, updated, restarted, etc. - everything that I can think of and I still have the same problem.
I don't remembered the last file that I loaded into iBooks, as I usually put them into collections.
I can still load PDF files into other applications like PDF Reader, but I prefer to have them all in iBooks.
Anybody seen this one before?
I have 64GB iPad2 and I have over 14GB free space.There have been several threads on this topic over the last few weeks. It's not clear what the issue is, and it is not universal, but tend to effect users storing large numbers of PDFs in iBooks. Possible it has some thing to dowith capacity of the app, or specific characteristics of some of the PDFs.

I've followed all the instructions in order to restore my ipod touch yet it won't even turn off or show the red slipper to shut down. I've tried holding down both buttons each at a time it doesn't do anything. Anybody ever experience this? If so help? Should I just go to the apple store?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Anybody can help with this SQL?
The table is simple, only 2 columns:
create table personpay(
id integer primary key,
pay number(8,2) not null);
So the original talbe looks like this:
ID PAY
1 800
2 400
3 1200
4 500
5 600
6 1900
The requirement is to use one single query(no pl/sql) to show something lile the following, in other words, for each ID, the pay is the sum of all before itself and itself. So the query result looks like this:
ID PAY
1 800
2 1200
3 2400
4 2900
5 3500
6 5400
Again, just use one sql. No pl/sql. Anybody can help with this? I really appreciate that.
thanks,Eh, people are so "analytically minded" that can't even notice a simple join?
Counting Ordered Rows
Let’s start with a basic counting problem. Suppose we are given a list of integers, for example:
x
2
3
4
6
9
and want to enumerate all of them sequentially like this:
x #
2 1
3 2
4 3
6 4
9 5
Enumerating rows in the increasing order is the same as counting how many rows precede a given row.
SQL enjoys success unparalleled by any rival query language. Not the last reason for such popularity might be credited to its proximity to English . Let examine the informal idea
Enumerating rows in increasing order is counting how many rows precede a given row.
carefully. Perhaps the most important is that we referred to the rows in the source table twice: first, to a given row, second, to a preceding row. Therefore, we need to join our number list with itself (fig 1.1).
Cartesian Product
Surprisingly, not many basic SQL tutorials, which are so abundant on the web today, mention Cartesian product. Cartesian product is a join operator with no join condition
select A.*, B.* from A, B
Figure 1.1: Cartesian product of the set A = {2,3,4,6,9} by itself. Counting all the elements x that are no greater than y produces the sequence number of y in the set A.
Carrying over this idea into formal SQL query is straightforward. As it is our first query in this book, let’s do it step by step. The Cartesian product itself is
select t.x x, tt.x y
from T t, T tt
Next, the triangle area below the main diagonal is
select t.x x, tt.x y
from T t, T tt
where tt.x <= t.x
Finally, we need only one column – t.x – which we group the previous result by and count
select t.x, count(*) seqNum
from T t, T tt
where tt.x <= t.x
group by t.x
What if we modify the problem slightly and ask for a list of pairs where each number is coupled with its predecessor?
x predecessor
2
3 2
4 3
6 4
9 6
Let me provide a typical mathematician’s answer, first -- it is remarkable in a certain way. Given that we already know how to number list elements successively, it might be tempted to reduce the current problem to the previous one:
Enumerate all the numbers in the increasing order and match each sequence number seq# with predecessor seq#-1. Next!
This attitude is, undoubtedly, the most economical way of thinking, although not necessarily producing the most efficient SQL. Therefore, let’s revisit our original approach, as illustrated on fig 1.2.
Figure 1.2: Cartesian product of the set A = {2,3,4,6,9} by itself. The predecessor of y is the maximal number in a set of x that are less than y. There is no predecessor for y = 2.
This translates into the following SQL query
select t.x, max(tt.x) predecessor
from T t, T tt
where tt.x < t.x
group by t.x
Both solutions are expressed in standard SQL leveraging join and grouping with aggregation. Alternatively, instead of joining and grouping why don’t we calculate the count or max just in place as a correlated scalar subquery:
select t.x,
(select count(*) from T tt where tt.x <= t.x) seq#
from T t
group by t.x
The subquery always returns a single value; this is why it is called scalar. The tt.x <= t.x predicate connects it to the outer query; this is why it is called correlated. Arguably, leveraging correlated scalar subqueries is one the most intuitive techniques to write SQL queries.
How about counting rows that are not necessarily distinct? This is where our method breaks. It is challenging to distinguish duplicate rows by purely logical means, so that various less “pure” counting methods were devised. They all, however, require extending the SQL syntactically, which was the beginning of slipping along the ever increasing language complexity slope.
Here is how analytic SQL extension counts rows
select x, rank() over(order by x) seq# from T; -- first problem
select x, lag() over(order by x) seq# from T; -- second problem
Many people suggest that it’s not only more efficient, but more intuitive. The idea that “analytics rocks” can be challenged in many ways. The syntactic clarity has its cost: SQL programmer has to remember (or, at least, lookup) the list of analytic functions. The performance argument is not evident, since non-analytical queries are simpler construction from optimizer perspective. A shorter list of physical execution operators implies fewer query transformation rules, and less dramatic combinatorial explosion of the optimizer search space.
It might even be argued that the syntax could be better. The partition by and order by clauses have similar functionality to the group by and order by clauses in the main query block. Yet one name was reused, and the other had been chosen to have a new name. Unlike other scalar expressions, which can be placed anywhere in SQL query where scalar values are accepted, the analytics clause lives in the scope of the select clause only. I have never been able to suppress an impression that analytic extension could be designed in more natural way. -
So. As always, it's about iTunes - as Apple is the most inconvenient corporation ever founded. Anyway! I've had this problem for about 6 months and haven't bothered to ask anyone. I've restored the computer numerous times and tried to fix the issue with help from other nonsensical forums. The problem is that 'apple mobile device service' is eating up a large amount of CPU, and therefore tends to make the computer run like a log. I have uninstalled it before but then iTunes won't recognize my iPod - funnily enough. As well as this, iTunes won't connect to the store? However, it doesn't say it's not, it just doesn't load. It states that it is 'accessing iTunes store', but it's not. I'm running all of this on a windows 7 Acer extensa 5235 - just in case that helps. It probably won't, but you guys are clever, right? I mean, I could probably ask you to peel an orange for me, and you'd do it without even physically touching it. Just with the power of your omnipotent minds. Anyway yeah, if anyone can help on this one, would be much appreciated.
Wow what a rambling mess and complete waste of time.
Did you try a search of the forums for similar issues? Doing so would have revealed multiple similar issues with valid troubleshooting, saved you time, and saved those that have read that crap from being subject to your rambling psychosis.
FYI, in the future, get to the point and cut the crap when asking for help.
Oh, completely uninstall iTunes and reinstall the current version of iTunes.
