Can I Enlarge Title and Artist Text when Playing Music?

Hello.  This question pertains to the 5th generation 32 GB iPod Touch.
When playing music, I'd like to know if I can enlarge the text that displays the title and artist of the track now playing. 
(I listen to my iPod in bed, but I wear contacts, and take them out at night.  I am unable to read the text clearly.)
If there is a way to enlarge the text, what is the procedure?  Is a separate app required, or can I do it some other way?
Thank you!   Jd

After doing more research and playing with the iPod, I figured out what to do.  There's a trick to it.
You double-tap the screen with three fingers.  On the second tap, you spread your three fingers out.  That enlarges the screen to almost any size you want.  Then, you use your three fingers to move the screen around.  The Zoom feature will memorize the customization, and will remain that size unless or until you change it.
It's just a little bit tricky, but that's how I got it to do what I want.  Jd

  • How the heck can I delete albums and artists out of Your Music?!?!?!?

    I had asked elsewhere about how to delete stuff out of "Your Music" and was told that from the 3 dots in the upper right of the app screen I would get a "Remove" option.
    BUT.
    1) That option is simply not there all the time. I cannot figure out any rhyme or reason as to why or why not-it seems maybe I can't remove artists, only albums? (But then, I don't see any way to view just albums by an artist...). Maybe it's only items I have played that I can remove? That rule didn't really seem to work either. Some albums/artists I can "remove" but not others, they simply don't show the option, not even greyed out. What the heck is going on?!?!? (These items are NOT in playlists, I hardly use playlists).
    2) Even when I can "Remove" that stuff still appears in the "Your Music" list. So what the heck am I removing? Not the music, as I don't download for offline listening any more. How can I get this stuff totally out of the list? (Yeah, I supposed I could remove and reinstall the entire app, but that seems ridiculous to be doing that periodically)
    I just want to parse the list down to stuff I want to listen to in the future-not junk I already heard, not my kids stuff she sticks in there sometimes. It is really bugging me that I can't clear out this old stuff!Help! Or maybe I should say HELLp!!!

    Hi,
    I will do my best to help you!
    To remove a album follow these steps:
    Open Spotify and go to the "Album view"
    Open the album that you want to remove.
    Scroll all the way up (so that you see the cover).
    Press the "saved"-button so it says "save" instead. 
    Finished.
    Hope this helped. :)

  • Crackling and popping sound when playing music and watching youtube videos

    there is a crackling and popping sound when i watch videos on youtube or play music/videos  using vlc media player  and windows media player. recently it has gotten to a point where it happens when windows is starting up or even when the laptop is required to play a sound for example when i plug in a removeable hardware such as thumbdrives

    Hi @donnabail ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your HP 2000 Notebook and getting a buzzing or popping sound while playing music and watching Youtube videos. Try performing a hard reset.
    When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
    You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook that might have caused this.
    You can try this
    1. Right click the Speaker icon in the bottom right corner.
    2. Click Playback Devices.
    3. Click Speakers.
    4. Click properties.
    5. Click the advanced tab on the Properties window.
    6. Change the Default Format drop-down to the highest quality.
    7. Apply the properties.
    8. Click OK to close the properties window.
    What happens if you right click on the video while playing a video and take the check out of hardware acceleration. Shut the browser down and restart the notebook.
    Have you checked for an update on the Active X.
    Please let me know how this goes.
    Thanks.

  • Why can't I read Japanese characters on song titles and artists on my itunes

    For some reason all of my Japanese songs titles and artists are in this random jumbled text, and I was wondering if anyone can help me fix it.

    Sorry. I think you misread me. I know you said the software upgrade messed me up and I agree. It was Kobo Support who said the ebook/library book that caused the problem. When I called Kobo Support to see if they had a fix they told me it was my library's problem. I kept going back to the software upgrade and all the trouble shooting I had done - including the paperclip in the back - but the tech just kept getting me to do the same things over and over. You were spot on that they would try to place the blame on something other than their upgrade but they didn't blame ADE. The tech didn't have any new suggestions . I eventually gave up on her and took the device back to its like new settings, unintalled and reinstalled all the software on both my device and pc. It is working now but unfortunately I lost a couple of books.  Thanks for your input.

  • After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can't edit and copy multiple text messages.

    After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?

    Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within  chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.

    Thank you very much. I just called Apple support and the woman told me I was out of luck because with the new OS X it (that feature) was gone.
    I'm not sure she knows too much.
    Maybe I can get a job there. I don't know as much as she didn't know !

  • Why can I not edit song titles and artists as I could in the past?

    Do you mean by using the 'get info' function and editing the data there? What is happening instead of what used to happen?

  • ITunes is changing song titles and artists

    iTunes appears to be infrequently and randomly changing the artist and song title tags of music in my library.  I usually just put my music on random shuffle, so it can take me a long time to actually identify errors -- like when I listen to music from a particular artist, or when I happen to glance at iTunes when a song iTunes has mis-re-named is playing.  So far, the errors seem to confined within single albums at a time, but that might just be because of the circumstances of me identifying the errors.
    In the first case I noticed a while back, an album with six songs had their titles all jumbled up.  Each song was titled with an incorrect song title from the same album.  The artist, album, and genre tags all remained correct.  In the most recent case, two songs from a compilation album had their artist and song title tags overwritten with the info from a third track on the same album (so I ended up with three songs with the same title and artist).
    Any idea what might be causing this apart from a crappy coding?

    If iTunes and WMP are referencing the same copy of the MP3, then a tag change in one will be reflected in the other. If that is not what you want, you will need separate copies of the song.
    Being picky, iTunes will write it's changes to the tag immediately (unless the file is locked as read-only) whereas WMP may choose to do it at some later point in time unless you use an option to "Apply media information changes". WMP will generally notice automatically that another appliation has modified the tag and updates it's library accordingly whereas iTunes only spots the change if it accesses the tag for some reason.
    If you want WMP & iTunes to play nicely together you are best off disabling the WMP options for "Rearrange music in the rip folder..." and "Automatic media information update..." (you can still do so manually). I also find it best to change the WMP rip folder to the same as the iTunes Music folder. Letting iTunes "Keep the music folder organised" is a matter of choice (I choose not) but at least WMP can cope if your files get shuffled around by iTunes whereas the reverse is not the case.

  • How do I copy playlist song titles and artists names to place in an e-mail

    There is an "export song list" option under "file" that I tried to use. It gives you an option of saving the text in "plain text," "unicode," or "XML" formats. I've tried all 3 and when I bring up the text in Word, its not organized in columns, its just one word after the next, with information I don't need like track numbers, date modified, etc. I don't want to have to go in and manually delete all the extraneous information. Is there a way to format the list in columns so that I could delete all but the song title and artist name for a 200 song list?

    Never mind, I figured it out. I went to "view options" under "edit." I deselected everything but artist, song, and album. I went to the playlist and opt-Aed the list, copy, and then pasted into the e-mail.

  • Ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song

    ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song... i cant see the the volume display to adjust it eiether. Everyting shows up in the menus just not on the now playing screen.... any suggestions?

    Try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • Hebrew Song titles and Artists appear as blank

    I want my iPod to show my Hebrew song titles and artists, as opposed to the blank (which makes it very hard to pick songs, as you might imagine).
    I understand that it comes out of the box without the capability to do so, but there was a fix for the old ipods on idigital.co.il. This fix however, does not work with 5th generation (I tried and the website says it doesn't). Why doesn't Apple just come out with an official fix? I figure it's something relatively easy to put out, no?
    (have latest itunes and ipod updates)

    sorry to say, but there isn't any third-party app that can fix that. you'll have to rename songs or live with it. you can send a request to apple to fix this in future software updates. here's the link:

    the iPod software list doesn't include the 4th Gen. but just click the most recent iPod 3rd Gen. software.

  • The sound quality of my speaker suddenly got really poor when playing music or videos.  Sounds like an old AM radio or Sputnik.  Pretty sure it's hardware related but maybe not.  Thoughts on what the problem might be and if it can be repaired?

    The batterys the ipods come with are very sensetive somtimes they dont react right to the first couple of charges. Try fully charging it and then leaving it on until its completely drained a few times. If that doesnt work it might be a lemon.

    Hi. I use Adobe Acrobat XI pro to make a PDF ebook embedded with audio. It works really well on my computer-I can read the book and hear the auto play mp3. The problem is, when I send it to my customers, they have difficulty hearing the audio. A few of them say they have Flash player on their PC and somehow they still can't hear, some say their Google Chrome browser tells them they've already got one flash player while they try to download one. For me, I had to download two versions of Flash player to be able to access to the audio. I don't know what the problem is, is it because it's the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro that people with older version of Adobe reader or flash player can't open it properly? Or is it something else? How can I make sure every customer with different system can access to my books? Hope to hear from you ASAP! Thank you very much.

    And how are the customers accessing the PDFs?
    What devices are they using?
    What program or apps with versions are they using?
    I this age of other then PDF eBooks formats and reader program and apss for computers and mobile devices for these formats I would look at creating the books in one or more of the eBook formats.
    Google Chrome and FireFox both have their own version of a PDF reader plug-in and they are well known to be less capable than Adobe Reader. It is possible to configure these products to use Adobe Reader.
