Frustrated With music&vidoes
I have nokia lumia 520....i use windows explorer on windows 7 to transfer music and vidoes to my sd card.....in the windows explorer the music and video files appear only once...but in the phone library the songs and vidoes are listed twice or even thrice.. :/ I have tried reformatting the sd card....but no use....this is really frustrating me.... :-(
Are you using any sort of sync software when you connect phone to PC ? I find easiest way to transfer music to phone is connect via USB, let icon for phone appear at bottom of PC screen on till bar,click icon and browse files and folders, you should see two drives, one phone, one SD card. Simply drag and drop the music you want into the music folder on the SD card if that is where you want to store it .
Good luck

Frustrated with all of it!! Music, Word, checking out.....
I have had this Mac for not even a year. Laptop Macbook 10.5.5. I pushed and pushed my husband to let me get this because I heard and THOUGHT it was the best system out there. Simple to use, solid system, better than anything on the market.
Ok, I have been NOTHING but frustrated since I got it. I realize that it takes a while to get used to something new like a Mac when you're used to using a PC all the time. However, this whole thing has gone on for almost a year and I'm about ready to just sell it and go back to what I'm accustomed to.
For one...when I used Word, which I bought special software at Best Buy to be able to integrate my PC work at my office with my Mac, I get error messages constantly, right when I'm in the middle of something, that tells me that Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. Then, it shuts down my whole Word doc without saving any of my work (!!!!!!) and has to restart. Says something about a kernal trap error when I click for specifics.
Second, I can't check out with sites like Wal Mart or Wal Greens when working on photo projects. Will just sit there saying "auto saving project" and will not allow the radio buttons to work for Check Out. This happens when using both Safari and Firefox. ???? Also, I can't upload pics to Craigslist or ebay. Nice. It just sits there, frozen when I try.
I want to be able to share music....just installed LimeWire. When I open it, within seconds, it says that it needs to close and relaunch for some unknown reason.
When I'm working in Excel, it constantly won't let me tab between fields and when I try to "insist" by tabbing, it shuts down.
I'm sure there are tons more issues that I'm not thinking of right now.....oh, yeah, when I'm trying to burn disks with pics or music, it tells me to insert a new disk, I do (brand new out of the box) it spits it back out and tells me that it's not a blank disk. Oh and if it's a CD-RW, it won't show me how to "erase" whatever NON file is one there. GRRRRR
I am seriously beyond frustrated with this. I paid a lot of money for this contraption and I can't even use it. I don't know if I can get some "free" help at a MacStore considering this thing isn't even a year old.Hello,
a ha! The Show Me state! It takes awhile to get used to a new operating system. Go here:

Are you doing any maintenance? First one to learn is how to repair permissions:
Run Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) and Repair Disk Permissions BEFORE and AFTER every software update. Launch Disk Utility. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select FirstAid, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot. That will help keep your Macs happy!
Make sure the hard disk doesn't have any errors:
To check the hard disk:
Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
Insert your Mac OS X Install disc in your computer’s optical drive or an optical drive connected to your computer, and then restart your computer. When you hear the startup tone, hold down the C key until you see the progress indicator, which looks like a spinning gear.
Follow the onscreen instructions until the menu bar appears with the Utilities menu in it, choose Utilities > Disk Utility, click First Aid, and then click the Verify button. If DU reports errors, click Repair. When it's finished, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Disk. In the Startup Disk window select MacintoshHD 10.x.x and click Restart.

yesterday I bought 65$ worth of iTunes music using a iTunes gift card. Then I got these emails saying I am being billed again????? What do I do???? I'm very frustrated with this. Please help me
What e-mail are you talking about?
What exactly did it say?
Are you sure that the e-mail was not your receipt? -
okay. when i connected my iphone 5 to itunes it replaced all of the data from my old iphone 3gs (contacts, apps, notes, bookmarks,photos, music, everything you can possibly think of) with my new iphone 5's data. I am so frustrated with this. Why? and it did it by itself, i didnt touch anything, or clicked anything. please help me this is urgent! I am a businessman and need my contacts.
You're iPhone was probably set to automatically sync with your iTunes upon plugging it in. Best option is to restore from a backup, either on iCloud or your computer.

I'm endlessly frustrated with iTunes Cloud syncing, something that was supposed to make lenjoying my music easier. I routinely find that, though itunes and podcasts have been split, iTunes arbitrairily removes music files or in progress podcast in favor of 'new' podcasts. The settings are just not fine-grained enough to allow true user control and so we are instead subjected to 'Apple knows best' protocols. I understand and appreciate the level of exacting control Apple excercises over their ecosystem, however, more and more often I see them tightening control over things that should be user control while dropping the ball on aesthetic desisions made in producing their own software (see the hideous pull down tab for iTunes to access Podcast, TV shows, Music, etc.
I would like to see features like those in Mail and the Podcasting apps implemented in iTunes afor the management of content on mobile devices, for instance it would be great to swipe to delete files that you know longer want on your device, at both the album and song level. Another issues is the new pushiness of iRadio and iTunes Store, the app now seems to default to the iRadio page (versus the last page Albums, songs, etc. that the user was navigating, or in the instance of the iTunes Store push, if I doon't have all the tracks of an album i own on my mobile device 'complete my album' takes you to iTunes store rather than showing the 'cloud' download icon next to missing tracks. These are the tactics I expect from Google, not Apple (pushing commerce over quality user experience).
Fix these things Apple, please. -
Hello. I’m looking for some help with creating slideshows, with music, and creating a web page so it plays for friends (Mac or Windows users).
I can do the basics. I’ve selected a group of photos in iPhoto (6.0.4) and created a slideshow, then I selected Music. I clicked Play and was happy with the results. Now what?
By accident, my first slide show (while in iPhoto) encorporated a sound track (Sample Music - “Acoustic Sunrise.”) And when I played the show it looks and sounds great. But I am unable to replicate this for posting on the web.
When I select a group of photos from my Library and then select the “Create Slideshow” button, I get options that include Music. However, when I choose the iWeb button and use the drop down menu to select Photo Page, I no longer have the option to include music.
Likewise, if I Save a slideshow while in iPhoto, then go to Share - Send to iWeb, nothing happens. It is greyed out.
Soewhere along in this process I managed to Publish. But the published shows do not include the sound track. I can’t see any option for including music.
I’m confused. I’m trying to do anything fancy here. I just want to post what it is I am getting in iPhoto on my desktop so family-friends can view and hear. Help?Noodlehead, I share your frustration & disappointment at the lack of elegant interface between iPhoto, Keynote, and iWeb. I am frustrated! I have spent all night creating a Keynote presentation to put up on iWeb for a state presentation. Although I was able to put a very clumsy version using QT, it's very unfriendly - no music, no controls. So I tried to export it as HTML. No can do uploading html to iWeb. So, I took those individual jpg files in iPhoto and made a slideshow with music. Cool! But again, there is absolutely no interface between iPhoto slideshows and iWeb. The support directions for Share: Mac Slides are great until you look for a Step 5: Connecting your slideshow to iWeb or even .Mac. Photocasting doesn't even allow people to go from one picture to the next with out clicking in and out of pictures (Click to view. Click to close pic. Mouse down to next pic. Click to open the next pic Click to close. Mouse click down ... AND there's no music that goes with . I'm thinking I could make an iMovie, but I am so afraid THAT won't upload either. I thought there was this elegant interface between iWork & iLife. Boy, am I WRONG! It looks sexy, but it turns out to be crack junkie. I've been up all night and all day now going from one dead end to another. IF anyone CAN HELP, PLEASE RESPOND. I think I'm going to try taking it into iMovie and then hopefully put that on iWeb. SAVE ME!

Comes With Music and (Finnish) Music Store
I have a Nokia N97 mini Comes With Music. There was an upgrade in Finnish Music Store in yesterday (09.09.2010). After that, I can not choose free downloads anymore. Somehow the "Comes With Music" button has disappeared, and every mp3 has a price. I tried to re-join to Ovi Music Unlimited but the client replies that I already have the Comes With Music rights. Any suggestions?
Solved!
Go to Solution.I have had this exact same problem since mid-August some time. Been in contact with the Swedish Nokia Care people and they basically escalated it to some technicians in India. Still waiting for some form of response from them.
Also, can you transfer songs from OVI Music (the software I mean) to your phone? Because I can't do that either (I'm guessing because it requires that I access my account and get the DRM license - but like you pointed out, every mp3 has a price and there are no re-downloads available in my account anymore).
This is extremely frustrating. Sometime in June or July was the last time I could transfer songs from my computer to the phone (well, stuff I've ripped from my own CDs work fine of course, as well as songs that I've had on my phone prior to the CMW-MU switch).

Help! iMac Computer Crashed with Music Library On It
I still have an iPod with music on it and I tried to download the library to my HP Pavilion laptop and I was only given the option to wipe it clean. Since I purchase all the music from iTunes, shouldn't I be able to access it on my other computer or something?...Lost thousands of songs!!! I just purchased an iPad and am frustrated because I can't get my music on it. Anybody know what I can do to get to my music again?
the following post by Zevoneer in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8794716 says it all:
If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

5130 nokia comes with music & ovi recognizing prob
Hey!
I just bought nokia 5130 xpress music with nokia comes with music. I followed instructions, installed ovi software etc, but when it comes to nokia comes with music thing, it shows the help for it (turn on phone and put usb cable to usb drive etc), but when i connect phone and press continue, it just refreshes the page, so i think it means that ovi doesn't recognize my phone. PC recoqnizes phone itself as USB Device USB Phone Parent in Wireless Communication Devices category and on location it says : 0 (Nokia 5130c-2). So what I should do to make ovi recognize my phone? I consider myself as advanced user so this is very frustrating .

Totally frustrated with Apple!!!!!
I have authorized my sisters computer to play movies/songs that I have purchased using my account. However some of the movies won't even pull up in itunes. when I log into my account and try to download them i get a message.."if you download past purchases with your apple ID you can not auto download or download purchases with a different apple ID for 90 days" ... What is the point in being able to authorize 5 computers to your account if it doesn't work ... HELP, I am totally frustrated with apple and it's many products
If you redownload your past purchases on that computer then you will tie that computer to your account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - your sister won't be able to use iTunes Match, automatic downloads, or redownload her purchases until the 90 days have completed. I believe that it's an attempt to try and stop people sharing purchases.
You can copy the films over from your own computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 (that page refers to music but it works for other content as well, I've used home sharing to copy films and apps etc) -

Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.
Hello APVzW, we absolutely want the best path to resolution. My apologies for multiple attempts of replacing the device.

how do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.
Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

My sister has an iPad and an HP printer. She cant' print from her iPad even though a genius at the Apple Store sold the combination to her with the idea that it would be easy to do. Instead, I have to go to her place with my MacBook, she sends me an email, and I hook up my laptop to her printer to print what she needs. Why can't the Apple geniuses come up with a USB cable and an OS update to make it easy and NOT SO FRUSTRATING to print from the iPad?
I've been a Mac user for fifteen years but I could not, in good conscience, recommend an iPad to anyone until Apple considers that ease of use does not include regularly getting frustrated with the easiest of tasks.all printers speak a diffrent "computer language" for a device to understand this language
a driver is required
some devices such a computers come with drivers for a long line of printers and other devices
apple decided that it was better not to include that huge list of drivers as users would then not have
much storage left for media and apps
then apple let printer makers make apps for printing in app store and make printers support airprint
