Cover flow and "enhanced interface" not working on iPod

I have an 80gb iPod classic video and it does not have the cover flow feature or "enhanced interface". I have updated the iPod software to version 1.2.3.
Thoughts?

*there's no way to download this feature?*
No I'm afraid there's not. I think it is safe to say that going on past model changes the interface will not be added retrospectively. As an example, when the Late 2006 version of the 5th Generation iPod was introduced it had a new search feature, this was not added retrospectively to the earlier model. The new changes are much more extensive than that one was so I wouldn't expect to see Cover Flow or any aspects of the new interface added through an Apple firmware update to earlier models.

  • Cover Flow on Windows XP not working, any suggestions?

    I recently had a problem with my HP computer (certainly not the first) and had to recover it using recovery disks. Of course I lost everything and when I reinstalled iTunes, the cover flow option wasn't available. I have tried looking everywhere and performing the nesscessary steps to get it to work. It did work before my computer had to be restored. I went to the Microsoft site and downloaded the latest updates. I checked the bit-rate, I guess you could call it and is at 32-bit. I turned up the hardware acceleration to full (it was already up there) and I downloaded a version of DirectX and it still does not work. If someone could help me out it would be much appreciated. I am technology-challenged.
    Thanks!

    Try checking your ipod settings, i had an itunes one change on its own once. Go to settings, then general, then rotate. If it says "off", then just hit the center button. If it says "cover flow", then see if it's the orientation sensor by going to the "maze" game if you have it to test it. The circle thing on the menu will probably glitch up/not move if it's the orientation sensor. If it responds normally (rolls/slides in the direction you tip the ipod), then i'm not sure. Try calling their customer service line at 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273) if that happens. Also, if you are walking w/ it with the hold switch off, then it may me that your walking is shaking it enough to shuffle it. That's my theory, anyway.
    BTW, are you're sure the ipod's not too flat for the sensor to register the rotation? I've done that before. It'll register at about a 45 degree angle.

  • Ringtones And text tones not working, but iPod is

    I purchased a ringtone today and since I did so, none of my alerts are working. My iPod is playing fine, so I know it's not the speakers. I just have no idea when I get a call or text message! Please help!

    Try doing a hard reboot of the iPhone
    1. hold the power and home buttons down
    2. you will see the "swipe to turn off" screen come up... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    3. The screen will go black (turn off)... KEEP HOLDING THE BUTTONS
    4. A white Apple logo will appear on the screen, now you can release the buttons. Left the iPhone boot... should only take a couple minutes.

  • Cover flow and album sort issues

    I just got a 80GB iPod classic for Christmas and I have noticed some annoying differences between iTunes cover flow and iPod cover flow:
    1. In iTunes cover flow, when you have songs with "Unknown Album", they clutter up the cover flow for each artist. In iPod cover flow, they are sent to the back of the cover flow in a nice little "Various Artists" cover. I like how this works on the iPod better.
    2. iTunes cover flow sorts by album artist, so you don't see a separate album for each non-album artist song.
    For example: If I set my album artist for the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack to "Saturday Night Fever" (don't ask why, this is how i like it sorted) then I will only see one "Saturday Night Fever" rather than one for Bee Gees, one for Kool & the Gang, etc.
    iPod cover flow sorts by artist, so you see a separate album for each non-album artist song. I like the way this works in iTunes better.
    3. When sorting by "Album by Year" in iTunes, syncing the iPod doesn't seem to follow the same sorting. Albums are still sorted on the iPod alphabetically. I want them to sort by year on my iPod.
    So I would appreciate it if someone could help me with all 3 of these issues. As you can see, sometimes iTunes is better for me, sometimes iPod is better for me.

    3. Playlists should be sorted in the same way as they are in iTunes. The Cover Flow order is fixed.
    This is not the case, at least not with iTunes 7.5.0.20 and my 80GB Classic running 1.0.3 on it (current version as of this writing). In iTunes, under LIBRARY, I select Music, and I have my music sorted via *Album by Year*. This works perfectly in iTunes. I'll use my Soundgarden library as an example, as it shows the problem nicely.
    *_iTunes order_:*
    Ultramega OK
    Louder Than Love
    Screaming Life/Fopp
    Badmotorfinger
    Superunknown
    Songs From The Superunknown
    Down on the Upside
    A-Sides
    That's ordered by date and is perfect. +Ultramega OK+ was released way back in 1988, while A-Sides was released nearly 10 years later in 1997. In Cover Flow View it works great. However, in the iPod it's sorted alphabetically, which is completely wrong:
    *_iPod Classic_:*
    A-Sides
    Badmotorfinger
    Down on the Upside
    Louder Than Love
    Screaming Life/Fopp
    Songs From The Superunknown
    Superunknown
    Ultramega OK
    This is totally wrong. And I haven't yet found a way to force it.
    Apple, please, this shouldn't be that difficult.

  • Art shows in itunes cover flow & album view but not on ipod

    I spent several hours downloading cover art to itunes for albums where the art couldn't be automatically retrieved by itunes. I'd browse through album view, and for every album that had no art, I'd (a) select the album by clicking on the default music-note image and thus activate the drag-and-drop target in the lower left, and (b) drag some art from a website. When I was done with this, all the albums for which I downloaded art would properly show art in the itunes cover flow and in album view mode.
    For the iPod (a 160GB Classic), I deselected "display album art on your ipod", hit "apply" to have it delete the art, then reselected and applied again, and itunes went through the process of formating and downloading the art to the ipod.
    Now, however, the iPod still only shows the artwork that had been automatically retrieved; all the art I had added manually won't show. Back in itunes, I notice that it looks like my process for downloading the art only resulted in the art being applied to one song per album, as far as I can tell randomly selected. If, in album view, I select each song individually, the art will show in the lower left corner (and in "get info") only for one of the songs; on one album it might be track 1 while on another it might be track 7. However this is enough for itunes to show the art for the whole album, and also to show the art in cover flow.
    Is there any automatic way to synchronize the art over a whole album, or at least to get it to download to the ipod so that it shows in cover flow and album view on the device as well as on the computer? I had to download art for about 190 albums; it would be a real drag to have to do that again.

    Ok, here is the method I used. Another member gave this to me. It has worked for my iTunes library, and hopefully my ipod on the next sync.
    I opened iTunes and Safari, with Safari on Amazon.com (to get the art). I would play any song from an album and command-click the each song in the album. Once each song is highlighted, I hit command-I to change info. I then dragged the art from Safari to the small box on the right of the smaller info change screen. This resulted in every song highlighted displaying the same artwork.
    I hope this helps.

  • Extended receiver and enhanced interface determination

    Hi,
    Can somebody list me the business cases when we use the extended receiver and enhanced interface determination.In which scenarios we have to use them?
    Where we can use these features and whom they can replace?
    Regards,
    Anoop

    :Dynamic file and variable substitution
    Similarly Extended Receiver determination is used to determine the receiver at runtime.
    Refer my reply:Re: Condition In Receiver Determination Not Working
    enhancement in ID
    Enhanced Receiver Determination:
    You use an enhanced receiver determination to have a mapping program determine the receivers of the message dynamically at runtime. Instead of creating the receivers in the receiver determination manually, you assign a mapping to the receiver determination and this returns a list of receivers at runtime.

    Enhanced (Mapping-Based) Interface Determination
    In an enhanced interface determination you do not enter the inbound interfaces manually, but instead first select a multi-mapping. You get the inbound interfaces from the target interfaces of the multi-mapping. The inbound interfaces are determined at runtime during the mapping step.
    You typically use an enhanced interface determination if the source message has an element with occurrence 0 ... unbounded (for multiple items of a data record) and you want multiple messages (for the individual items) to be generated at runtime.

  • Please fix cover flow and quick look asap.!

    Maverick upgrade put my cover flow and quick look unuseable.  shows wrong Icon for file. I ran disk utility several times to no avail.

    Apple probably don't read this user forum, so submit feedback if you want to talk to them directly.
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    This is a place to get help from other users, so if you can provide more info we may be able to work it out, otherwise you will be stuck waiting for it to work itself out or for Apple to change something.
    This app will create a system report that could highlight what is happening on your system (it's possible for old software to break new code on Mavericks).
    http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck run it & paste the output here.
    You should try Quicklook with several files of different types to work out what works & what doesn't. Look for patterns too, e.g. Do jpegs on the desktop work but not when they are inside you Pictures folder.
    What exactly did you run in Disk Utility and did you do that when booted from the recovery partition?
    Have you rebooted since installing Mavericks?
    I would also recommend trying a 'safe boot' to see if Quicklook works in that reduced mode (not everything works in safe mode so don't be alarmed if an app won't open etc).

  • Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together  on FCP ?

    hello,
    My audio interface is a TC Electronic Konnekt 24D
    my video interface is a Canopus ADVC 110
    my hard drives are plugged in firewire too
    and I use Final Cut Pro 5.0.4
    So, the konnekt is recognized by FCP only when the Canopus is not plugged. And even then, the audio sometimes drop out and sometimes causes the app to crash, so that I have to trash the preferences
    When I plug the Canopus, the Konnekt 24D is recognised by OS X but not FCP
    I want to use the voice over tool with the konnekt 24D, so what should I do ?
    Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together ?
    If so, maybe I only have a driver problem from TC Electronic.
    But if not, I have to change this interface. Let me know if only RME, MOTU, Presonus and Edirol work, as it is said on apple's webpage for hardware compatibility
    thanks
    eMac G4 1,25 Ghz Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    eMac G4 1,25 Ghz 1 Go RAM DDR   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    The 1082 does show up as a possible input when I open
    the VO tool.
    Ok. So an audio interface can be plugged to FCP without crashing the app. Because of the Konnekt driver problem, I wasn't shure of this.
    I use my Aja box for export & external monitoring.
    All my audio sources run back into the Tascam and I
    use the analog mixer in the 1082 to monitor different
    sources.
    When I view external video, the audio follows it to
    keep sync.
    that's exactly what I want with other I/O interfaces. I'd like to monitor video with the canopus ADVC 110, and monitor audio with the Konnekt 24D (or another interface if this one is not compatible)
    I also imput dailies with a deck or a camera (DV or HDV) but that's not the point here.
    I want to imput audio with the Konnekt 24D because of its audio quality. Not audio sync to video dailies. But voice over, in sync with FCP video playback (for me, tha ADVC 110)

  • Actions and Advanced Actions not working correctly. - Captivate 8

    In our project, we have it set so that after every section the student is asked three quiz questions (they are set on the default quiz slides.) On success, the person jumps to the next question slide. On failure, the person goes to next slide which has two buttons - one that allows them to simply move forward to the next quiz question and one that allows them to go back and review. The "Go back and Review" button takes the person back to the specific content slide that contains the answer to the question they are being asked. This button is set to advanced actions "Jump to Slide ..." and "Show Button..." - The button is a 'Return to Quiz' button to allows the person to find the answer then try the question again.  I know that the buttons on the default quiz slides cannot be programmed to do a specific action, but every time we click 'Submit' it seems fine until we click 'Next' to move ahead, it then routes us back to one of the content slides (Slide 7) instead of the next slide (if wrong), or the next question slide (if right). I have looked at the Advanced Interactions Window and there is nothing linking this slide to anything. I have not had this problem with any of our other modules or sections. I have tried creating new question slides and it did not work. I deleted Slide 7 and it worked fine the first time through the preview, but then when I viewed the preview again, it started jumping back and would not even let me get to the questions. Can anyone help?

    Normally the Next button on a question slide is not needed, because it has the functionality of Skipping the question. It is however needed if you want to allow Review.
    Another explanation is that you did change the normal work flow for a question slide, where a two-step process for submitting will take automatically the user to the next slide.
    Question Question Slides in Captivate - Captivate blog
    What did you do to need the Next button? If the user submits:
    Feedback appears with the indication to press Y or to click on the slide, happens at the pausing point of the Question slide (default is 1.5secs)
    When user presses Y or clicks, the actions Success/Last Attempt are executed if all attempts are exhausted, and you have only 1 attempt on Question level: the actions are by default Continue, but you can change it to 'Go to Next Slide' to shorten the waiting time (or drag the pausing point closer to the end of the slide).
    What did you change?

  • Cover Flow and pictures of album...

    Alright, hey peeps, I have a SLIGHT(ya right) problem. When I take songs from my comp to my iPod classic (80g), when I go on "Songs" it shows an album right? Yeah, well, the thing is, when I go on SONGS, it only shows ONE album picture. Thats ok, but when I go to cover flow, the other album pictures (That are visible on Windows Media Player) are NOT there! Where are the picture?! And when I listen to the song (the cover of the album in this one is a large ship stuck in an iceberg) and its not there while you can clearly see it in WIndows Media Player. Please people help out because I AM VERY FURIOUS!! I AM BEGGING FOR YOUR KIND AND HELPFUL WORDS!!
    ~Rammstein~

    iTunes will display a cover in many of it's views provided at least one track from the album has embedded artwork. The iPod appears to load only the artwork from track one to create the cover flow and album views which means that it can sometimes fail to display art for albums even when you can see the art in iTunes. Further, when tracks are played on the iPod, artwork is displayed if and only if it exisits in the currently playing track, so track one may show art while track two does not.
    To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. If you're using Google or other FWSE to locate suitable images they should be jpg's and ideally square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus.

  • MBP and motu ultralite NOT working. Firewire.

    Hi, I bought a macbook pro 2.5 with a HD of 200G 7200rpm and I am trying to connect the motu Ultralite. I tried this audio interface in other laptops and desktops (PC) and it does work with no problem.
    I am running Leopard 10.5.2 and the motu does not behaves quite ok.
    Also tried with windows XP with bootcamp, and it does not work at all. It is recognized, but when I open the properties and load the ASIO drivers it says the MOTO has been disconnected and suggests to turn it on again (which obviously is already connected and powered on)
    I read, this can be related to firewire port. Anybody with similar problem?
    Any help or suggestion would be much appreciated.
    Thank you all.

    I've had problems with my MOTU Traveler and OSX ever since purchasing my MBP.
    A factory reset of the audio device has been motu's fix which works for a little while but
    the problem of the device not being recognized always returns.
    I've found that if i unplug then re-insert the firewire cable while the audio device is powered on it
    is sometimes recognized but not always.
    I do not experience this problem when using DAW software which addresses the hardware directly,
    only when using software that relies on the system to address the audio hardware ie; (quicktime, itunes... you get the idea). Works fine on my powerbook G4.
    I've read these issues may be related to apples choice of firewire chipset in the new machines?

  • I am on windows 7 and I upgraded to 10.0.2 and now it will not open. I have removed firefox completely and uploaded it again and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version and once again nothing.

I then made sure it could get through my firewall and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version hoping that would do it and once again nothing.

    I think when uninstalling you may also have to choose (tick) to delete the preferences and other personal data like the bookmarks, stored passwords etc. to erase completely. If you are installing afresh, please try right-clicking on the file and '''Run as administrator''' to install. And when uninstalling, please also make sure choose to delete all data and also manually delete any '''Mozilla''', '''Mozilla Firefox''' or '''Firefox''' from %appdata%, %localappdata% and %programfiles%. You can open a location by typing for eg. %appdata% in the '''Run''' box (Windows key + R). You may also have to check the '''VirtualStore''' folder in %localappdata%. Files in the VirtualStore can be problematic. I think a clean installation may help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • Keyboard and trackpad are not working, Keyboard and trackpad are not working

    I'm using MBP 15" late 2008 with Maverick OS. A couple of days ago, the internal keyboard and trackpad are not working at all. I did all the troubleshooting. I even reformat it; installing the snow leopard and re-installing the maverick but no good result. I believe there's no problem with my keyboard because i can still do PRAM on my lappy. Everytime i'm booting up my MBP, it always looking for bluetooth trackpad and keyboard. I have not used those bluetooth peripherals from day 1 i've started using MBP. I just read on the internet about the same problem has happened on MBP 13" retina and APPLE fixed it by updating the software. I wish Apple will also do something for the old MBP to fix the intermal keyboard and trackpad problem.
