BMW iPod Touch interface: some songs start mid way but not all.

Hi, I upgraded from an iPod Classic to an iPod touch 4th generration and since doing so some (not all) songs will start at various points in the song when connected to my BMW iPod interface cable, eg 3:20 into a song, then another one may start 10 secs into a song etc. Some songs start at the begininning. This never happened with the Classic.
Any ideas please ?

The classic most likely it was working using and over version of the itunes software, the new iPod you have is using a newer version  of the aple software, there are 2 solutions, downgrade the software on the new device
or see if there is any update for the iPod interface in your vehicle, some can be remove out of the vehicle and
plug into a computer using a usb cable

  • I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. after much prompting. Now my music is gone! (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back on it??

    I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. -- after much prompting from iTunes. Now my music is GONE (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back?? I'm really bummed! Everything shows in iTunes, but it's not synching right. So glad I updated. NOT.

    Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
    When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
    Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
    It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

  • Apple TV plays SOME of DRM TV SHOWS, but not all.  WHY?

    Hi,
    I usually LOVE apple products (5 ipod devices, etc . . .) but my new Apple TV is very frustrating.
    I have All the BattleStar Galactica Episodes (50+) that I purchased off of the itunes store. The apple TV will only play 4 of the 50 episodes. I always get the following error messages "Video format is not supported by Apple TV" even though I purchased them through the itunes store.
    I can sync some shows, but not all.
    It does this with some other series as well.
    I'm running Windows XP and it is completely up to date.
    I have updated my Apple TV.
    ALSO, I sometimes (but not always) get the message "Apple TV does not have enough room to sync the TV Show xyz" It will say then when I have 96gb free on a 160gb Apple TV.
    I'm not certain the two issues "Video Format" and "space" are related.

    I can not access to my music librairy in MUSIC, unless Itunes on my PC is open.
    If you want to access the content in iTunes on your local computer then yes they computer has to be one and iTunes has to be running.
    I have set up the good way home sharing on my ipad/pc and Apple TV but it is not working.
    Yes it is.  You just said above that you can see the content on your local computer.  Home sharing has to be working for that to happen.

  • My ios update did not load to my iPhone completely. I have some of the new features but not all of them.

    I have some of the features but not all of them. It seems that the download did not complete.

    Where are you looking for Siri voice selection? It should be in Settings/General/Siri. You must also choose a language that has a choice of voices. US English and Canadian English do, UK and Australian do not.
    What do you see in Settings/Wallpapers & Brightness? You need to tap one of the 2 images to see the selections available.
    As I said, it is impossible that the installation is incomplete; you just aren't finding the new features. If you want to reinstall anyway, upgrade iTunes on your computer to 11.1, then connect the phone using a USB cable directly to the computer (not a hub), click on the iPhone's name in iTunes, then click the Restore iPhone button.

  • IPod Touch skipping some songs

    Hi there,
    I bought an 8GB iPod Touch, synched all my music library of about 500 songs; and now I see that when I'm playing my songs random, a few songs play until some part (the middle of the song usually) and then stops playing abruptly and goes to the next song. If I delete the song in my iPod and re-sync it again then the song plays OK so I don't think this problem is related to the song itself.
    How can I fix this problem? Is this a firmware or iPod hardware problem?
    Thanks and regards,
    Mauricio

    I had a similar problem,
    Many PC users have solved this problem by adding a new PCI Card to their PC that adds a new set of USB ports. Then re-sync the entire iPod using the NEW usb port.
    There seems to be a transfer problem with some onboard USB ports. (the USB ports that came with your computer) - when you use an 'add-on' USB port, the problem goes away.
    Whether this is an Apple or a PC problem - I'll leave that up for speculation.
    here's an old thread:

  • Ipod touch first generation is recognized by computer but not by itunes 9

    I connect my ipod touch to my hp laptop while itunes 9 is open. My computer recognizes the ipod touch but it never appears in my itunes. If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated. i have tried the suggested steps on apple and nothing really has worked. ipod touch still charges and works fine. ipod touch is first generation.

    I spent 2.5 hours on the phone with Apple and they were stumped. We tried everything!!! uninstalling itunes, updating "usb mass storage" drivers, etc...
    I have an ipod touch 16gb, Gateway computer using Vista, and my computer recognized the ipod but itunes didn't start up when I plugged it in and it was not recognized in itunes.
    Long story short, after reading almost every thing I could find on google and Apple help I stumbled onto the info about the 2.0 usb port. In looking to see if my computer had a 2.0 usb port (just to be sure)I found that it would be listed as "enhanced" in the Universal Serial Bus Controller section of Device Manager. Sooooo, I tried updating those drivers and it worked! I think. I did so many things, but this seemed to do the trick. It's worth a try. Mine is working perfectly now.
    start
    control panel
    device manager
    universal serial bus controllers
    right click on the "enhanced host controller" (mine listed 2, so I did both)
    choose automatic update
    then plug in the ipod. That seemed to allow my ipod to download the proper driver. Tadaaa - itunes started and my ipod is now recognized in itunes.
    Worth mentioning is that my ipod had to do a restore. Not sure why, maybe it was something apple had me try.
    GOOD LUCK!!

  • I can import some songs from another computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Message says "...check connection to network..." Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?

    Using home share, I can import some songs from my son's  computer but not others.  All the songs were purchased with the same apple id.  Err msg:"There was a problem downloading ... You do not have enouggh access privileges for this operation. Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again."  The network appears to be fine .  I can import other songs from his library.  The same songs cause me a problem each time I try.  My husband had no trouble importing the same songs I have trouble with. I get the same error message if I try to import the same songs from my husbands computer as well.  "Command I" appears to show the same protections on both the songs I can import & the ones I cannot.  My husband and son are both running OS 10.6, while I am running 10.7.  I think I had this problem even before I upgraded, but I am not certain.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions..
    My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    Please post back and let me know how that goes.
    Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:

    Please don't hesitate to post back should you have further questions or comments, or with update.

  • IPod Touch is being detected by Windows Vista but not iTunes

  • IPod Touch 4G, some songs don't play after Update to iOS 4.2

    I have songs on my iPod that do not play when I select them from a playlist. The iPod just keeps skipping the song immediately and moves to the next in the list.
    However, the very same song plays, when I select it directly from the "Artists" or "Album" view.
    And: The same song plays fine under iOS4.1.
    Any ideas?

    I have the same problems.
    I created smart playlists of unlistened music (play count = 0), and it reads the first song, the second, then the fourth, the sixth, etc. It reads the two or three first in order, and then skips one song, plays one, skips another, plays another, etc.
    I do not have that problem with "regular" playlists.
    I disabled the "shuffle when shaken" option. (translation from French)

  • Every time I press the next button on my iPod Touch, the next song starts at 20 seconds. How can I fix this?

  • I got a new windows computer and I can't transfer all of my music to it from my old computer. I have some music on my phone but not all of it so when I plug it in only some of my music shows up and none of my playlists.

    I got a new Lenovo Windows computer and I'm trying to transfer my iTunes library to my new computer. I can't figure out how. I tried plugging in my iPhone and it synched what music was on my phone but I don't have my entire library on my phone and none of my playlists transferred. I tried authorizing my computer and it is but it still isn't showing up. I turned on my homesharing on my new and old computer but apparently I have two other computers I have authorized and I don't know which ones they are, probably ones that have been thrown out. What do I do now?

    iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    Authorizing a computer does not cause media to magically appear.
    Media is only where the user puts it.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

  • Transferring some apps, but not all  to new iPad

    Hello, I am just about to take possession of a new iPad air. I want to transfer some apps to this iPad but not all of them, is this possible, and how do I do this please. I want my grandchildren to be able use the old iPad to play their games I have already downloaded and/or paid for but do not want them on my new iPad? Thank you.

    Hi ballingeruk,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you purchase a new iPad Air, you can choose which apps you want to put on the new device by downloading them from the App Store to the iPad Air.
    Use these instructions to download apps you've previously purchased on your iPad Air:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Apps
    Tap App Store.
    Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
    Tap Updates.
    Tap Purchased on the resulting screen.
    Locate the app in your Purchased tab.
    Tap the download icon.
    The app will begin downloading and you'll be taken back to your home screen.
    You can find the full article with detailed instructions for downloading purchases, along with screenshots, at this link:

  • Wifi not working with iTunes, apps store and some, but not all Internet sites....why???

    Yesterday I noticed while browsing Internet that some sites would not open and that some games I regularly play would not open. I also found that I could not open either the apps store or iTunes. Everything seemed to be working the day before and I have not recently upgraded ios (been on version 6.1.3 for a while) or changed any settings on my iPad (2).  With Internet research today I found suggestion that if I switched to 3G I would be able to access these apps and,sure enough, under 3G connection everything works fine. Some other forums suggest changing wifi router settings to fix the issue ....I have not tried this as I wouldn't  like to mess with my router and end up effecting other peripherals/pc's connected to it that are working fine....especially when I am not terribly IT savvy when it comes to hardware settings.  But as I haven't changed anything on my ipad why would my wifi suddenly stop connecting to some apps on my iPad, but not all??? Interestingly I can access many Internet sites (forums) with wifi connection but not the apple forum! To get to anything apple related I have to switch back to 3G ....that includes checking the iOS version I am on via settings!
    I also mention that I have done all the other suggested fixes found on various forums, such as rebooting iPad, renewing wifi lease, clearing cookies, closing all apps etc etc, to no avail. Seems the only suggested fix I have not tried is mucking around with my router which I am very hesitant to do given the **** I went through with my telco when my home Internet connection suddenly stopped working last year. Took me weeks of phone calls to get my internet connection back and being forced by the telco to a more expensive plan, hence very reluctant to start mucking around with that side of things, but why should I need to when it does seem to be working ok with other devices in the home?
    I have started this as new discussion as, even though I am not terribly IT savvy,  I cant see how this could be related to the wifi issues that many on the newer devices (iPhone 5 and iPad mini etc) are reporting as I haven't recently upgraded anything on my ipad and all was working perfectly up until yesterday.
    Any other suggestions on how to get wifi working correctly again on iPad or do I really have to risk the working of every other device in my home and chase it from modem/router side?

    Hi there,
    You mentioned that you have tried a few troubleshooting steps already, but you may want to take a look at the article below, specifically the section titled "If you are unable to access the Internet while connected to a Wi-Fi network"
