Bug in iPod.app on iPhone?

Since updating to 3.0, some of my MP3 files, like "What if" from Coldplay's X&Y, start playing at around 60% of the total track time when i click begin. "What if" and "White Shadows" start at exactly 3:17 and 3:19, respectively. But the rest of the album is fine.
I even checked the "options" to see if the start time was specified there, but it's not. This album played fine on v2.x .. anyone else seeing any oddities like this?

I am unable to get my iPod app, on my 3 g iphone to work since I updated to the new software. Has anyone encountered this and is there a fix. Rebooting the iphone does not make a difference. None of the options at the bottom of the iPod screen are reacting to touch as well.
Any recommendations highly appreciated.

A way to normalize volume in the iPod app on iPhone?

I have a set of favorite songs in a playlist in iTunes on my PC, and in my iPod Classic. As either one is used to play the playlist, the volume of each song is reasonable in relation to the others. It doesn't surprise me, since I've been told that iTunes "normalizes" volume levels of music files as they are added to iTunes. Not sure if it adds playback information to the file in a form similar to the data tags on mp3 files or what.
Anyway, here's the problem. I synched my iPhone 3GS to iTunes so I can play this one playlist via the iPod app in iPhone. But there's one musician whose songs come out sounding twice as loud, and distorted. They don't do that in iTunes or in the iPod Classic. I poked around on the iPod app for some settings without any luck. Suggestions? I can take the original music files and create lower-volume versions, but that seems like kind of a clumsy approach.

I recently purchased an iPod Touch for a family member for a Christmas present. I would like to have it charged and ready for him to use on Christmas morning so he doesn't have to wait for it to charge. According to the instructions I need to register the iPod before it can be used. The problem is that I would need to register it under my account as we won't have a computer available on Christmas day though we will have a wireless Internet connection. My questions are, if I register the iPod under my account will my relative be able to unregister my account information when he goes home and then re-register under his own account or can he just delete my account information and enter his own account information?
No, the iPod will have to be restored to factory defaults
If he can't do that is there a way he can reset the iPod so all personal information is deleted and he can start from scratch and enter his account information?
Yes, just restore the iPod to factory defaults.
I hope these questions make sense.
Thank you to anyone who can help me with this. I would love for my relative to be able to use his new iPod Touch from the minute he opens it. Thank you and Happy Holidays to all.

Podcast episode does not appear in iPod app on iPhone

My podcast feed "A Thoughtful Faith" has two episodes. Both of them download without trouble on the desktop version of iTunes, but on the iPhone after episode 1 downloads it still shows that it is available and not "Downloaded," and will not show up in iPod app. My listeners are reporting a similar problem.

LInking directly to their file is obviously the sensible thing to do. It looks as if the problem lies wieth the athoughtfulfaith.org server.
There is a test suggested in this thread to check for byte-range request ability, consisting of pasting this into Terminal:
curl -I -r 200-300 http://athoughtfulfaith.org/podcast/AThoughtfulFaith-001-GregPrince.mp3
The results, according to that thread, would seem to suggest that the server does handle them:
HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content
Date: Mon, 03 Sep 2012 21:08:02 GMT

Content-Range: bytes 200-300/46077596
Content-Type: audio/mpeg
I don't know how reliable this test is. It may be that the problem is something different, particularly as the file appears to download complete and then disappears. I can only suggest trying hosting the file on another server, or asking the people who run your server whether they can suggest anything.
As to your other question, the PubDate for the Classic episode is indeed 2 September but the URL is definitely the mormonstories.org one. In order to look at the feed, control-click or right-click on the URL:
http://athoughtfulfaith.org/podcast/atf-rss.xml
and choose 'Download linked file' or equivalent. Open the file in TextEdit or any text editor to read it: search for <enclosure to find the tag containing the media file URL.

IPod app on iPhone 4 won't sort alphabetically after music transfer.

I have recently downloaded a software on my computer to remove music from my iphone. I currently don't have itunes (laptop got a virus!) and needed to remove some music from my phone. The software worked great, however when I went to check my phone to see if the music was really deleted, I noticed that the artists are no longer listed in alphabetical order. Well, I take that back. They are, if you scroll down to the middle of the C section, they start in alphabetical order. Not sure how this has happened, why it has happend or how to fix it!
The software I used to transfer the music is:
CopyTrans - downloaded from cnet. this one worked-ish but didnt delete the files off the phone, so i used another software after that called:
4Media - Ipod to PC transfer. - worked beautifully!
Below are screen shots of what my ipod app looks like (please don't hate on the music taste haha)
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I need my music!

Did you restart your phone?

IPod app on iPhone 4s usage 100% of time

Woke up this morning to a battery at 3%, it was at 45% 6.hours ago before bed. The "iPod app was open and even after the process was killed, it would restart and be running again... My usage on battery just kept going up and it was over 9 hours. Memory leak in Apples own app??? What to do? I have logs as well.

Nike+ ipod app on iphone 4s

Good evening everyone I have a problem I can't solve and I've tried to google many times but I can't find an answer.
I have an iphone 4s and I'm using the app Nike + ipod with sensor (it was a present). Everything's OK but the app can't sync with my account on nikeplus.com. the app can connect to the web site but once I log in... there isn't nothing, only my workouts with the other app. I think that it only works with the newest app, nike+ running.
I can't undestand why. I've tried everything but it doesn't sync anyway. I've thought the reason is that this app (Nike + ipod) works only with ipods.
Can it be possible? Is there a solution?
thank you very much

IPod apps to iPhone

I downloaded and paid for quite a few apps when I bought my iPod, now that I am switching to an iPhone do I have to purchase the apps again if I'm still using the same Apple ID?

No. You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account.

IPod app in iPhone 4 skips tracks

32 GB iPhone 4 on Verizon. Sometimes, on certain albums and songs, when I click a song to play it the iPod skips the track entirely and moves on the next song. It's usually the first, second or third track on an album, and sometimes all three. It seems pretty random, and when I sync again the problem seems to go away on that album and usually reappears on a different album. It happens on music purchased in iTunes and legal CD ripped into iTunes. I am meticulous about keeping my music info correct (i.e., correct albums, track numbers, artwork, etc.). My comp is a brand new MacBook Pro (lower end) running Snow Leopard. Any suggestions?

I found the problem... it's Zone alarm 9.2.0.91.0000 and Seven SP1...
I desactivated ZA when i would like to sync and miracly... there isn't problem at 1:10-1:14 min.
With the same song, when i activate ZA, the problem appears.
conclusion : When you sync your iphone 4 desactivate ZA.

Is anyone experiencing a bug in mail app in iOS 7 ?

I'm experiencing a bug in mail app in iPhone as well as in my iPad... This bug makes all my mails unread whenever I refresh for mails and whenever I read a new mail it stays unread even if a close the app. Please help me if possible...

I've not heard of or experience any such issue.
Have you tried removing and readding the accounts in question?

I have downloaded audiobooks. Manually synced my iphone, and they appear to be on the device when viewing on itunes. But the ipod App on the phone is empty..

Hi, I am going crazy with frustration. THis is the first time I have tried to download podcasts to my (partner's) iphone.
I have downloaded the latest itunes software.
Having gone round and round in circles I'm fairly confused over what happened when. But I got scared when I tried to Apply settings and kept being told that this would Erase and Sync. ERASE?   Was also told that I wasn't connecting to the correct library, which baffled me. How did I end up with 2 libraries? Isn't Apple supposed to simplify this stuff? Was told that clicking Apply would mean files not downloaded to the Mac would be deleted. ***?
I got scared by all these messages and so paid £20 for an app that allows me to transfer files from the iphone to the Mac, because I seemed to be in danger of losing precious photographs.   I actuallly own an Android phone, and all I have to do is connect it to my windows laptop and it behaves like any other storage device, allowing me to copy files back and forth.   But this is not possible with the iphone. It's a closed device. Hence the need for software to allow this simple procedure.
Anyway, enough griping. Sorry I can't be more specific as to how I arrived at this problem. But the problem IS:
I chose to manually sync files between Mac and iphone. Selected all the audiobook chapters I wanted to sync. Pressed sync. Sync occurred. According to itunes, the audiobook files are sitting on the iphone.   According to the iphone (looking via ipod App), THE CUPBOARD IS BARE.   No files have been synced from itunes to iphone.
I have found a lot of people have this problem, on other forums. But there are no definitive answers. Just confusion and frustration.   I would be SO grateful if someone could give me idiot-proof advice on how to deal with this. My partner is counting on me to sort this out, as he desperately needs audiobooks on his iphone so he can decompress from work stress and do some exercise!   As the barely technical-literate one, it's down to me to fix this!
Here's hoping.   If none of this makes any sense, please do ask for more detail, and I will happily respond.

You got the new iphone?????   I have same problem. I transferred audiobooks to device to find no audiobooks on device (despite it being in iTunes as if it was). Have you found a solution?????   I even tried to change import settings on format transfer but hasn't worked.

Please help with my iphone 4 ipod app?

Hi everyone, I am having problems with playing podcasts and music on my iphone 4 (IOS 4.3.5 8L1). The symptom is that the podcast skips or doesn't play at all. Music is similar.
I have had the phone replaced by Apple once, and have been to the genius bar 3 times and spent hours on the phone to Apple support.
I have done DFU restores on the phone and downloaded the entire IOS update several times, the firewall, AV and ad aware all disabled on the computer (windows 7 BTW) during the download of both the IOS and subsequent podcasts.
Directly after a DFU and with no apps installed, sample podcasts (that had experienced problems) seem to be OK. I then installed the apps one at a time and tested the podcasts in between, I installed the 6 apps I find most useful. I then downloaded more podcasts and the problem returned after the ipod app on the phone "lost" some podcasts that were shown as being on the phone in iTunes. Resyncing meant that the podcasts were shown but the problem of skipping etc. had returned.
Today I went through the same process and got the same result, but with different podcasts. Similarly, the ipod app "lost" some podcasts before resyncing corrected that part but started the "skipping" fault.
Other things I have done:
The podcasts all play correctly on iTunes, and also on my iPod.
I have downloaded the entire podcast library several times to eliminate the remotest possibility that they are corrupt (this would manifest by them not playing correctly in iTunes/iPod I would imagine as well).
I have had a iPhone 3GS for a while and also an iPod, so I am familiar with the products, and never had a problem.
I have logged a case with Apple and am now at my wits end, because it seems that getting any sort of ownership is a real problem.
Any suggestions on what else I can do?
Many Thanks,
Neil
BTW: iTunes 10.4.1.10

The music files on my Iphone are still on the ipod app...however they do not play! what to do?

Hi All
Basically over a month ago now my laptop had a virus and completely crashed and i lost everything, including all of my music
Luckily I had it all of my purchases on my Iphone so I was safe. However, yesterday my phone was close to dying and my friend plugged it into her laptop to charge forgetting that it immediately tries to sync the files... I managed to pull it out in time but I think i was too late as all of my songs are still listed on my ipod app on the phone...however none of them play!
Please help me get them back guys!
Thanks
Steff

Yes you can. But keep in mind that if you want to play your deleted songs, you will have to redownload them from the cloud. So while you can delete them off your system to free up space, you cannot directly play music from the cloud. It has to be downloaded to your computer first.

Is there a way to temporarily disable the iPod in the iPhone. I am trying to stream from an app and it gets overridden by the iPod initializing

Is there a way to temporarily disable the iPod within my iPhone. I am trying to stream music using an app and a dock on my Sony AIR and the stream is over ridden by the iPod starting up.

First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started

My iphone automatically goes to landscape mode.. i can't view the songs in the ipod app coz of this. How can I fix this?

I am having the same problem with a new phone. Is yours new? I was planning to take this one back to the store where I purchased it. I updated itunes and phone software, didn't help, so I'm thinking it's a hardware problem.
