Can someone explain what's happening with my music library?

When I switched to my iPhone 5 I synced my music the way I always did through iTunes but when I checked the "on this iPhone" tab in iTunes it shows I have more songs on the iPhone than the Music tab does, many of which are grayed out and have a circle next to them. I tried un-syncing all the music which I understand is to remove all music from the device. After doing that it shows in the Music tab that nothing is syncing but in the "on this device" tab it still looks like this:
So it's showing these 82 songs, plus the weird grayed out ones, even though they shouldn't be there.
Can anyone tell me what's going on here, what that circle means, why it shows the songs even though they aren't there? And more importantly, can it be fixed? I tried resetting the device and everything early on and it didn't work, so maybe it's baked in at this point. Any help is appreciated.

The dim ones are in iCloud, not in your library. If you don't want to see them go to the iTune View menu, "Hide items in the cloud"

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • Round Corners Effect Can someone explain what's happening?

    I just don't get what's going on here... I have this shape, a bent rectangle and I need it to have rounded corners. When I apply the effect Round Corners the shape is transformed to a completely diferent shape instead of just applying round corners on each corner. See image below. What am I doing wrong?

    Now you've done it!
    What's happening well I would say it was not working, which means it is a bug.
    However you can get it to work if you do it one of three ways.
    Draw your rectangle then give it a round corner effect or convert it to a round corner rectangle
    then give it either a warp effect or go to Object>Envelop Distort>Make with Warp and then expand.
    You can expand the warp effect as well.
    The third way is to make a round corner rectangle and either do the warp from the Object menu or do it as an effect.
    Otherwise the explanation for the result you see is it is a bug. It shouldn't happen.
    I think this might have been reported.

  • Can someone explain what has happened to the "Classic" Text Tones such as Glass, Tritone?  It was on my phone and last night they disappeared and I can find them anywhere.

    All of the sudden those Classic tones are gone and I can't access them anymore.  What happened to them?  Makes me really upset because the new tones are so long.

  • I don't understand what's happening with my Music. All the songs that I purchased, that were previously on my phone, now show up a Cloud next to them, but I can't play them. If I touch the Cloud, it turns into a red square but never downloads.

    I don't understand what's happening with my Music. All the songs that I purchased, that were previously on my phone, now show up with a Cloud next to them, but I can't play them. If I touch the Cloud, it turns into a red square, acts like it's downloading (which I can see happening in iTunes), but never downloads. The Cloud just stays there.
    I've sync'd my phone, I've turned it to "show all music" in Settings, I've drag and dropped the songs/albums onto my phone again. I feel like I've tried everything I've seen recommended, but nothing works.
    I've purchased a lot of music from iTunes. It should be there. What's going on?
    P.S. Same thing happening with my purchased books. Ugh.

    Once you successfully add you iTunes library to iTunes Match, you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store on your iOS device and turn on iTunes Match.  Your iTunes Match library will then appear on your iOS device.

  • Can itunes be set to sync with your music library?

    Can itunes be set to sync with your music library? Everytime i add music to my computer i have to go to itunes and add it. If i move music on my computer then itunes gets lost and i have to add it again and then go back and delete all the broken links in itunes. Is there a better way?

    iTunes does not at present have any good feature for watching folders and automatically importing tracks you add to a folder. Using strictly iTunes, unless you drop the tracks into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder in the iTunes Music folder, you'll have to add any such tracks manually, by dragging them to the iTunes window or by using the Add To Library command. Here are a couple of potential solutions from other developers, though:
    http://albumbrowser.klarita.net/iTunesFolderWatch.html
    http://www.lifehacker.com/software/itunes/hack-attack-automatically-sync-itunes- to-any-folders-175161.php
    The same applies if you move a track from folder to folder manually; that will break iTunes' links to the track file and you'll have to re-add or relocate it in iTunes.
    Thanks to Meg and Hudgie for the tips.

  • Could someone explain what's happening? (pretty long)

    This post is similar to the one I have posted earlier. I was hoping someone could explain to me what really is going on in the server.
    I have a page where I have a header, left menu, right menu, footer. These are inluded jsp files using the include directive. In the main body I check if the request for the page was a post, do some actions with my beans then redirect to another page. So basically my code looks something like this:
       if (request.getMethod().equalsIgnoreCase("POST")) {
          // do some stuff with my beans
         response.sendRedirect("OtherPage.jsp");
         return; )When I reach the redirect that''s when I get an error: Microsoft Internal error. If I take off the redirect everything works except my user is still left in hte same page. The error occurs while I'm still loading my left menu. My left menu is made up of 2 sections. The first one is the menu options which is generated through JSP, and the second half the links of the site which is plain HTML. So I did a little experimentation. First I tried using the jsp:forward instead of the redirect. Still no go. Then I tried cutting my left menu to the point where I usually get the error, that's the part of the links. So I took of the links in the left menu - the pure HTML part of the menu, and it worked. So I tried generating the links through JSP as well. I got the error again. After researching in the forums I tried increasing the buffer size. A suggestion I saw in previous posts with people with similar problems. I increased the buffer size to 9kb using the <%@ page buffer ="9" %>. It worked. I restored my left menu the way it was before, and thikn s worked fine.
    What's bugging me is that my left menu is very simple. It's just has a small background image and some links. The main page is just a simple form as well. I really don't see why there is a need to increase the buffer size. Is my design flawed and inefficient? Or is the need to increase the buffer a common thing in web applications?
    I was also thinking could it be that I'm trying to send another response while still processing the current response? I noticed in some sites they do not redirect, instead the just post a page and link to the page where the user has to go. Is my approach wrong? Are you allowed to redirect in the manner I have?
    If my design is wrong, what are the other approaches in performing the preocedure? Are there other methods that are more efficient which do not require an increase of the buffer?
    I was hoping someone could explain what really is happening behind the scene, so I can decide what is the best approach. This is my first time doing a web application and everything is still new. Hoping to learn from you gurus. Thanks in advance for all the help!

    Hi,
    Vicky I did uncheck the show user friendly errors and
    I still get "an internal error has occured in the
    Microsoft internal extensions". Unless I'm doing
    something wrong. If it's any help I'm still using ie
    5. But I can tell you this, the error is raised while
    I'm still in the same page. The page posts to itself
    do some validation then redirects. When I hit the
    redirect That's when I get the error.It should have shown you the actual Exception,Ibelieve even after unchecking the show user friendly error the response is comming from cache...So now try this Tools-----General---DeleteFiles----AlloffLine files(Check this)....
    Now try the response....
    As regards to the buffer I tried increasing it to 9kb
    instead of the default 8kb and everything worked fine.
    Right now what I did with the page is keep the buffer
    at it's default 8kb size, it shows some message and
    provides a link to direct the user where to go. I
    don't think it's a Java exception because I have an
    error page that displays the exception and the stack,
    and I don't get redirected there. I think it has
    something to do with either the buffer and/or creating
    another response. Of course I could be wrong, I'm
    still trying to figure things out and me being a
    newbie and all I'm not getting anywhere.Well,try to access the page directly I mean OtherPage,jsp,which comes from response.sendRedirect.......
    Are you allowed to redirect while processing a
    response in the first place?Of cource you can....Actually if we see logically once the response is generated at the server it can be send as it is being generated or it can be stored in buffer at the server and then send at one time so the I/o allocations are not held forf the longer times.The default for the jsp is buffered state which can hold 8k,what will happen if the response you are trying to write is more than 8k,it will flush the old storage(check this) can depend on container implementation also....
    You get IllegalStateException if the the autoflush=false defined by you....
    Can you post the code of the two files let me see.
    regards vicky

  • Can someone explain what DHCP is and how I do I connect to WiFi  hotspot?

    Can someone explain how a wireless network/router with an internet connection allows computers with a wireless card to connect to the internet? For instance, In an internet cafe with WiFi, how does my macbook get the IP address for the ISP that the cafe uses to allow me to open a webpage with Safari? What is DHCP and how should I set my internet preferences to allow me to use a network other than my own.
    The reason I ask so many questions is that I can connect to the internet with my Airport Express base station network at home but not in my local WiFi cafe. Can see the network but not connect.

    Most Internet Cafes utilize DHCP to dynamically provide a wireless client with an IP address for that session. DHCP is a protocol used by networked computers (clients) to obtain IP addresses and other parameters such as the default gateway, subnet mask, and IP addresses of DNS servers from a DHCP server. It facilitates access to a network because these settings would otherwise have to be made manually for the client to participate in the network.
    You Mac's AirPort, in turn, is set up to be a DHCP client by default. This allows your Mac to accept the dynamically provided IP address information from the Internet Cafe's DHCP server.
    The reason I ask so many questions is that I can connect to the internet with my Airport Express base station network at home but not in my local WiFi cafe.
    It sounds like the AirPort settings that your Mac is using is no longer at their default settings...and my be the reason you cannot connect to the Internet at the Cafe...or, the Cafe has additional settings required. I suggest that you check with the Administrator of the particular Internet Cafe you're having trouble connecting with to find out what settings are necessary to use their wireless network.
    A typical AirPort is set up as follows:
    System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
    - Verify that AirPort is "On" (checked)
    - Verify that AirPort is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
    Systems Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort
    AirPort tab
    - By default, join: Automatic
    TCP/IP tab
    - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    - Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
    Proxies tab
    - Configure Proxies: Manually
    - Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
    - Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
    - Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
    - Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked)

  • Streaming, can someone explain what I am doing wrong?

    I have two ATVs both synced to one computer. I have a large music library on a second computer but can't find how to stream to one of the ATVs.
    I followed the instructions in the booklet, opened iTunes on the relevant computer, chose sources on the ATV, "Connect to New iTunes" and noted the passcode, selected the ATV icon and "Click to set up", entered the passcode and the ATV icon disappeared. "My Library" shows in the sources but the ATV icon only re-appears on the computer if I switch to "Connect to New iTunes". If I then click on the icon the ATV page opens up with details of the ATV and a message saying that the ATV icon will only appear when "My Library" is selected on the ATV, but as soon as I do that the ATV icon disappears. The help file says in System Preferences sharing pane make sure "iTunes Music Sharing" is on! There is no "iTunes Music Sharing"!!
    Please, can someone take this idiot through the process step by step, including how you start streaming once you have successfully made the connection?

    Glad to see everything is starting to work out.
    You might consider two user accounts (that's logins) with a music library in each. It's a little more work to operate, but probably less than having two libraries in one user account and providing both users are logged in and have itunes running you should get both libraries available to you at the same time on the tv (obviously you would need to switch between them on the tv).
    Otherwise I'd consolidate them by opening itunes (with library 1) and then dragging and dropping the music files from the music folder of library 2 onto itunes, I'd start by doing a few tunes to satisfy yourself that all is OK, you can probably do them in large chunks but I'd probably not drag them all at once, if something did go wrong you probably wouldn't lose any files but it might be difficult to figure out what files had been added and which hadn't before the problem occurred.

    On the iPhone, is bluetooth only for pairing with a BT headset? no data transferring/receiving whatsoever with a powerbook? if so, has Apple gone mad?
    thanks

    It is easier to explain what it cannot do.
    • it does not support OBEX file exchanges
    • it does not support DUN connections via Bluetooth to connect your computer through it to the internet
    • it does not synchronize contact, events or media files
