Anybody run a lot with your ipod video?

Hi, guys. I run a lot everyday and i just wonder if it's ok to run with a ipod video. I know this will increase the possibility of damaging the harddrive. but doesn't apple consider this already and made it robust enough?

well the hard drive buffers approx. 32 minutes ahead. so the likelyhood of skipping is minimal. In the way of negative effects of the motion in runing im not sure i dont run. im sure it would be ok to run with it ....i mean i see alot of people luggin the larger older ipods around asa they run in their hands. And since the new ipod is smaller and lighter im sure it wouldnt be as bad. I would just recommend looking for a durable adn good arm band.

What do you do when you can't sync your ipod and it tells you that itunes is not compatible with your ipod?

Upgrade to the newest version of iTunes first to see if that helps.

"Problem with Your Audio/Video Configuration"

"I Tunes Has Detected a Problem with Your Audio/Video Configuration. Audio/video playback may not operate properly."
Does anyone know why I'm getting this error message? After getting it, I usually cannot hear any sound on I Tunes or other media players.
I've already tried uninstalling and re-installing the drivers and it doesn't help. I also have the latest version of I Tunes. Any ideas?

I had this problem also and uninstalled and then reinstalled Quick-time yesterday and the problem was solved.
However when I turned on my PC today, I had the same problem again but this time uninstalling and reintsalling Quick-time is not working.
Anyone any other suggestions as to how to fix this problem?
Thanks.

Pictures With Your iPod Touch

add your pictures with your iPod touch

For most folks, it actually makes the photos smaller. It goes through some "optimization" to make the photos the proper size, etc, for the iPod. Maybe if they're too small, that optimization makes them bigger? My 162 photos, which are 219 MB on my computer, are 102 MB on my iPod, so a bit more than 1 MB for two photos.
In an attempt to answer the OP's non-question... in order to get photos onto the iPod from your computer, you need to select the "Photos" tab in iTunes when your iPod is hooked up, and select directory/directories that contain photos (or will contain photos) to sync to your iPod.
If you let us know what your question is, we can better help

Does resetting your ipod mess with your songs/videos?

I have a movie that freezes at the same point every time i try to watch it on itune or on the ipod, and I've gotten the suggestion to reset the ipod--will this affect/delete my songs and videos?
Is resetting the ipod even a good idea?
Thanks,
Abby.

Yes, this is exactly the thing to do in your situation since you've got an iPod that's video freezes; reset the iPod.
Resetting the iPod is simply like restarting a computer, which does not loose it's data if everything goes normal (which it does, unless a really weird error happens).
So is the iPod. Resetting is probably the first troubleshooting step that Apple recommends with any iPod issues, and is simply is used to restart and refresh the iPod. It often cures minor little freeze ups or little glitches in the iPod's behavior.
By the way, the data on your iPod will be safe and unafffected by resetting it.

If you have problems with your ipod turning off and charging look at this..

I have to send in my 80gb ipod video because I am having problems with the battery,I charge it until it says charged and in ten min it shuts off and when I try to turn it on it says that there is not enough battery life to even turn on so i called it in and they told me that I have short battery life and that I have to send it in and they will fix it...If anybody out there has the same problem call it in and they will replace it...and if you don't have the number here it is:1-800-275-2273

hey man I'm glad they replaced it...but if you look
most of the problems are with the battery or the hard
drive...I know that people make mistakes and I do not
expect it to be perfect,but some people expect for it
to be working perfect...and those people tell other
people that there product was defective,and that's
how Apple loose customers..I didn't say I was Mad...I
don't know why your getting mad, I'm sorry if I
offended you, I was just trying to give Apple advice
sorry.
Not true, most problems are with software, then with the earphone jack I quote from a letter that I recieved from a service manager that I worked with several years ago who wrote me two weeks ago and I am quoting. "Although the percentage is small it seems that if I had to put it into words I would say that software glitches seem to be the number one problem with the earphone jack a close second. Although both are not a major percentage. All in all it is a great product." Not mad,and sure that Apple will be far better off with your advice. Maybe they will move up from the number one maker of the number one mp3 player in the world and make some serious money with it now that they have it. But be advised that they do not monitor this for advice. You might want to try here http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html
and I will run out and buy more stock.

My story:I just got a new ipod video 60 gb a few days ago. i installed everything and it was up to date. I have a pc with windows xp home edition. when i pluged it in all it did was make a sound like it reconized it. I spent hours uninstalling and reinstalling the updater and itunes. My sister had a ipod mini which worked still. I took it back to the store and it was fine on the macs there. The guy restored it but when i got home it still didnt work. I then had to got to N.Y. the next day. I kept tring and still nothing. I went down to soho and all they did there was what i already did. They told me to reinstall windows. two days later two of my uncles came and they didnt know how to fix it. but one of y uncles noticed that when you go to control panel and system and then hardwear and then device manager there was an ipod with an extension of a ipod in yellow with a ? mark. My uncle said that its the driver which is bad. They couldnt help me anymore. The next day i was like okay im going to figue this out. I unistalled everything including itune quick time and updater. Then i reinstalled it. Still nothing. But when you plug it in the first time it pops up with a new device and stuff like that and it pops up a page saying to install new device select where you want to install it from either a list or your computer.

My PC is rebooting when I try to sync up with my iPod Video

Since I downloaded iTunes 6.0.5.20 last week I have been having serious problems. When I tried to sync up my iPod Video with iTunes my PC just goes blank and reboots. Also, when I tried to download videos from the music store my PC also reboots and I never receive the video though the store says that I have received the files. This happened with 2 different videos. They were free ones and so no loss but my iPod is now unable to be updated!

ati3duag.dll
that's the second time i've seen that dll referenced here in a blue screen in a week. that file is associated with ATI video card drivers.
try running through the troubleshooting steps i was suggesting to Bahama Boy in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=2957231
but let's also enlist some additional technical help. let's capture a minidump of the crash and send it to someone who can interpret minidumps.
To set up your machine to capture a minidump, right click on "My Computer", select "Properties", select the "Advanced" tab, select the "Startup and Recovery" Settings button, select "small memory dump" from the popup. When it crashes, look for the MiniDump file. It's usually in the folder "C:\WINDOWS\Minidump" and is called something like Mini<number>-<number>.dmp.
collect the minidump, and send it to this email address
in the email, include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.

Working out with your ipod G5

Does any of you buy armband for your ipods? Is ipod video too bulky to use on an armband when working out at the gym?

Whenever I exercise, I bring my iPod with me.
My iPod has been working for 6 months without problems.
Some things to note:
1) Don't use shuffle mode. The iPod has about a 25 minute "short term memory" cache. When shuffle is enabled, the hard drive can't use that cache. If the cache isn't being used, the hard drive is always being accessed and is moving. Definitely not good if you're jogging.
2) If you're not comfortable carrying it, pick up an armband. Make sure your iPod fits snugly--and if it doesn't, add some padding to the armband or exchange that armband for a different one.
3) If your iPod begins behaving strangely while you're jogging, stop using it for a while when exercising. If it behaves normally when not moving, you may need to get a different armband or invest in a nano or shuffle for exercising instead.
4) If you'll be doing a lot of exercising, investing in a shuffle would be a great idea. It has no moving parts, so nothing can get jostled and broken.
Sorry for the long reply--hope this helps a bit!

Itunes 7.1 does not run. Issue with your audio config detection

Hi,
Since I updated to itunes 7.1 the following error message comes up each time I start the program "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration" This happened for the first time right after the update and I have tried to downgrade to the previous version (which was working fine) but now this error occurs with previous version too.
My sound card is a creative sound blaster x-fi and I don't see anything wrong with its configuration.
The OS is Vista premium
Thanks to anyone who can help me with this.
DELL Dimension E520 Other OS Vista and creative sb x-fi

the following error message comes up each time I start the program "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
typically that's caused by a broken QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.) see the following document for troubleshooting instructions:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes had detected an audio configuration problem

I am sad with my ipod video 30GB...HELP!

after i found a disclaimation mark icon diplays on my ipod vedio, i tried to upgrade and retore my ipod video with most updates ipod updater 1.1.1 version. it doesn't work!; it told that "cannot retore", so i use the Mac's application - Disk utility to erase the disk. the process took 30 hours to finish. i restart my ipod and mac.
but after that, ipod still cannot mount on to my desktop. my OS X 10.3.9 ask me to "format/ignore/eject" after restarted. i press "ignore" to make ipod connect to my mac. open my ipod updater to retore it again , it runs a moment and told "error while format ipod"!
i have NO idea to fix it, anyone can help?
or i just send it to the apple warrenty center?

If i was you i would just send it away to apple because you are obviously trying everything you can to fix it and nothing is working.
Even if you just contact apple via email or phone they can maybe suggest other options.

Using a iPOD nano in combination with a iPOD video

I am using for a while a iPOD video that contains a copy of all my CD's. As I would like to run without breaking the hard disk, I have bough a iPOD nano 3rd gen. When I connect it to the PC, he has got the same name of the iPOD video.
How can I diffenriate them to store only a few CD, podcast, ... on the nano?
Thanks in advance

The solution is to rename the iPod by double-clickung on his name in iTunes.
