Hi, I have just bought another ipod, I have now a 60GB video ipod and a new 8GB ipod. Does it pose any problem when synchronising ? Can they have different names ? Thks

You can name your iPod whatever you like. If you are connecting a second iPod for your own use, just connect it to your computer and it will update from your existing library. Depending on the size of your library and the type of iPod you choose you can have it update the whole library, selected playlists or you can manage it manually.
When using a small capacity iPod like the Nano with a large library, you can choose the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" (called Sync Music - All songs and Playlists in iTunes 7). This would allow you to create a playlist specifically for your Nano and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod Nano (around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB). You can read more about playlists at these links:

Ipod shuffle randomly freezes....please help!!!!

My Ipod shuffle seems to randomly freeze after certain songs, or spots on the shuffle. I dont recall exactly when this first started, but it seems like ive tried everything. I have tried scandisk, defrag, resetting the ipod, updating it to latest firmware, and still nothing. The problem occurs whether or not I am in shuffle mode, or straight play. I would appreciate any help what so ever. I am at my wits end. I dont understand it at all. Scandisk detected no errors. Should I attempt to format it? Please help!!!!

Hello, Chris.
If the problem is corrupt files, there are a couple of things you can try.
Remove the songs from the shuffle's playlist, then refill the shuffle - but don't let the offending song(s) reload; we're trying to overwrite the memory. Then you can let these songs back on. If the problem continues:
If the songs weren't purchased from iTMS, try re-reripping/re-encoding them. Then reload them.
(These steps have worked with all but one song for me. I've never figured out why, probably just coincidence, but I have one song that would only play a couple of times before this started happening again. It's off the shuffle's playlist for good.)
If the songs were purchased from iTMS (and in another post I think you'd indicated they were) you can try to get them replaced or you can go the route of making an audio CD from them and reimporting the songs.
(I've never tried this, and one poster in this forum has indicated it will cause an unacceptable loss of quality.)
Good luck

40GB IPod Click Wheel Freezes iTunes When Connected - Please Help?!

I have only had my ipod 3 months and it was given to me as a present so the ipod thing is quite new to me.
Recently my ipod froze and after reseting as per instructions it showed a folder icon and apple support.com.
I turned the ipod back on after that to find all my music files gone, i tried connecting my ipod back to my lap top to download the music again but iTunes just freezes.
I have also placed my ipod in disk mode to completley restore it but i cannot do this if iTunes wont recoginze its there.
I am completely lost and gutted that after only 3 months i have lost faith in the ipod already and just listen to my music through my lap top at home now.
I left all my cd's back in england before i came to oz and have nothing to listen to in the car now.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance

I guess nobody else has had this problem?
Does anybody know if you can e-mail apple direct to express how useless their services are or even to try to get an explanation from them of how to correct the problem before i throw their ipod in the bin?

HP iPod versus Apple iPod (please help my HP iPod is in ipod heaven :( )

I have a 20G HP+iPod that i bought from cosco that i use with my apple computer. Everything has been working fine until one day when i turned it on and a "sad ipod" flashed up on the screen. When i turned it back on it worked as normal so i thought nothing of it. A little later while listening the ipod froze up so i resetted it. After reseting it a folder with an exclamation mark came up. A little later though it started working again and it worked for a couple of days. I was listening to my ipod in the car for a long time until the batteries ran out and when i plugged it back in the folder with the exclamation mark came up. So i went the apple.com/support and it said i have to restore it. Now this HP iPod would not restore. everytime i restored it it would say an error has occured. Finally i get the thing to restore and i plug it in to put in all my songs again. Unfortunatly my iPod freezes in the middle of uploading the songs so i gave up. Today i tried restoring it again. And updating it again. it froze again. I give up now so i am returning my iPod to cosco tommorow...
Now here is my question. Is an HP iPod different than an Apple one. Because after returning my HP iPod to cosco i am thinking about going to buy a new Apple iPod but i am afraid that it might not be any different than the HP one. (and yes i am defienatly planning on buying the insurance for it). Please help! (good thing about cosco u get a full refund for anything)

The HP has the same hardware as the apple one. The warranties and service offered by each company is where the differences lie.
Since your iPod broke so early with those icons, it was probably a lemon and the HD was having issues.
Since you have a mac though, get an apple iPod because HP doesn't support any connection issues between an HP iPod and a mac.

Updated iTunes and now can't remove songs from my iPod - please help

I've updated iTunes to version 11.0.0.163 and have an iPod Nano 16gb 5th generation.
In iTunes, I'm no longer able to manually select songs to remove them from my iPod - I can't even see the list of music that's on my iPod. The only option it gives me is to sync, and I don't want to do that. Before I upgraded iTunes, it was easy to move music between my iPod and iTunes, now I can't - what's happened?
My iPod is full so I want to remove some music, not all of it. Any advice? Please help - I'm going round in circles!
Thanks

You may prefer to use the Music Sync page to select or deselect Playlists, Artists, Albums etc and click apply.

Cant see songs on my ipod. please help.

Hello to all reading this, and thank you for lending me your time. first: please note that i did do all that i can (restoring, updating, formating, reseting, checking the discussions for s solution, asking friends, and so on) before handing my problem to the forum & my ipod is up-to-date with the latest version 1.4.1. Now, let me get straight to the point:
1) A couple of weeks ago i updated my iTunes to the latest version (i think it was version 7 or 7.1, not completely sure). Everything was working fine, everything was going great but after a couple of days something that i have never seen before appeared, the most horrible message i have ever received from a software before popped infront of my eyes as my iTunes opened, "...your ipod appears to be corrupt...". At first i didnt take it seriously because i thought a little restoring and reconnecting will solve the problem but i was sooo wrong. I did all that i could have done, reconnect, restore, update, format, "chk" the "dsk" if you know what im saying. succesfully that problem was over when i succesfully fixed it after a series of different tries, everyday!
2) By fixing the first problem i thought, "oh, now all i gotta do is just sync all my songs again and start doing what i do best, listen to my music, full time!". Again, i was wrong. So i left my ipod to sync all my songs then came back to it after a while with a joyful "ipod update complete" message infront of my face. And as i checked on my ipod on the sources list it was true, all my songs were on my ipod, then i also checked in the ipod itself via "My Computer" and found a series of some coded and some recognizable songs on it. When i disconnected my ipod though, the apple logo appeared and keeps on appearing as if i have reseted it and when i browse the ipod, i donnot see anything, it appears completely song free when iTunes says i am currently using 2.90 GB of my 3.77 GB with a list of all the songs on my ipod available and 45 MB of other, also windows says that 2.93 GB is used from my ipod. When i check the information on the "About" located in my ipod, it tells me that i have 0 songs, 87.3 MB capacity and 169 MB available.
* please help me if you can, i will be very thankful because this problem has been driving me craaazy! i actually sit on the computer and try to fix it for a long time. oh, and my warranty = finished!

The songs being "greyed out" indicate that your Nano is set to autosync with iTunes. If you wish to remain on autosync, then you will have to delete from iTunes first, then re-sync your Nano. If you wish to maintain the files in iTunes, then you will have to change your iPod preferences to manually manage.

Photoshop elements 12 freezing on 'initializing'. Please help!

I bought of DVD copy of Elements 12 in june and has been working perfectly until very recently. I use a wacom intuos pro (small) graphics tablet and have been using it perfectly with Elements 12 (and CS5) for the last 2 months, until I updated the driver for my tablet (both cord and wireless). Since updating the driver for the tablet, neither Elements 12 or CS5 will open. They launch and freeze on the startup image when it reached 'Initializing', everytime for the last week without fail.
I've done everything I can think of to fix this problem, from changing the permissions of the SLS Store and Adobe PCD folders, uninstalling and re-installing both soft-wares (which resulted in Elements 12 telling me it was only a trial version worth 30 days, and asking me to lisence the software when ever it successfully launched) and restoring the computer to an earlier date.
I've only been able to open the programmes when I didnt have my tablet plugged in, and then it would crash after a few minutes (or immediately when I plugged the tablet in). I've rebooted the tablet multiple times and have finally got it working properly, but Elements 12 and CS5 still refuse to launch.
I'm running on a 64 bit version of Windows 7, with 8 GB RAM and up to 3.1 GHz.
Please help!

ITunes 9.2 Freezes using Windows 7 - Please Help!!

Hi, i'm currently using iTunes 9.0.0.70 on a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ430E laptop with Windows 7. I tried to upgrade my version of iTunes to 9.2 and everything seems to run through and install fine until i actually try and open the 9.2 version. What happens then, is when i double click the iTunes program shortcut, absolutely everything on my computer comes to a complete and utter halt. And by that i mean i cannot move my the cursor controlled by my mouse, pressing ctrl alt & del does nothing and i basically have to switch the laptop off by pressing the button until the whole thing switches off. I've tried running iTunes again once the restart has taken place but the same thing happens - complete freeze of everything on my computer. The little hard disk light stops flickering and nothing happens at all. So i uninstalled iTunes 9.2 and have now gone back to using 9.0.0.70.
Now, i've also got an iPhone 3GS with which i used the computer (PC tower) downstairs to install the OS4. As you can probably imagine, i am now in a position whereby i cannot connect my iPhone to iTunes 9.0.0.70 because it says it needs iTunes 9.2 to be able to do anything. There is where my problem truly lies. I do not mind using iTunes 9.0.0.70 but becasue all of my music, media etc is on my laptop, it now means my iPhone is rendered pretty much useless because iTunes does not and will not recognise it because it has OS4 and needs iTunes 9.2 to be able to sync to my phone.
I need to be able to install iTunes 9.2 but every bloody time i do so, it freezes up when i try to open the program and i cannot sync my iPhone cos the only iTunes i can use is 9.0.0.70!!
Can anyone please help me with this!?????

A 652?
Some digging at Microsoft answers indicated that this can sometimes be associated with trouble with the Windows Installer. Does the following technique help?
+I followed the following steps (found on a goggle search) and tehn installed the updates+
+1 - Navigate to "Services and Applications" in Computer Management. (right click on Computer and click Manage) DO THIS UNDER LOGIN WITH ADMINISTRATOR RIGHTS.+
+2 - Expand the Services and Applications+
+3 - Click on Services+
+4 - In the right side of window sort by Name and go down to Windows Installer. By default the start up type will be set to Manual. (You will notice that the status will read 'Started' even though you know that it is not really running)+
+5 - Right click on it and select properties+
+6 - In the middle of the popup box you will see Startup Type. Use the drop down arrow and select 'Disabled' and click apply.+
+7 - Close out and reboot. The service is now set to disabled so on reboot it will not still think it has been started. Now follow the above steps again and select 'Manual' and click apply and close out the Computer Management screen.+

All my songs were on the XP so I transferred them to Vista, downloaded iTunes and I now have all my songs in the iTunes library on Vista.

If you know anything about how to sort this out please
please help!!!
Thanks

:s confused with my iPod, PLEASE HELP!?!

Okay, well this is how it goes; My brother is good with electronics, and fixed this iPod for his friend. His friend didn't want the iPod mini anymore, so my brother gave it to me. The problem is the battery needs to be charged to turn on, but it's showing up the low battery sign, but it's not showing that it's charging. I have no idea if it's charging or not, yet it's plugged into my computer, so I'm kind of confused and mad, and it's not showing up on my computer or iTunes.I can't take it back because I don't even know when he got it. Please help me out here!
Thanks,
Ujenna.

First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

Still no joy, see these.

Premiere CS4 freezing on startup menu, please help.

Hi,
I installed Adobe Premiere CS4 not too long ago as part of Master Collection and all the other programs seem to work but Premiere doesn't.
Whenever I open Premiere CS4, the splash screen loads up and then I get that menu with New Project and Open Project buttons. That's when it freezes. The buttons don't work and whenever I click on them the menu flickers slightly and nothing happens. I tried closing some Adobe processes like acrotray and Import Process but that didn't help.Has this got something to do with Quicktime or something else? Please help, I need Premiere CS4 to work on my college assignments.

I solved the problem!:)
I actually found it through the panel on the right for similar problems.
Apparently WindowBlinds 6 was the cause of the probelm and there was an option in it that I had to change.
Now Premiere works.
