Getting rid of genius from playlists ipod classic sw version 2.0.4

Did anyone ever work out how to do this. Its really annoying me to have this forced into my playlists

I have experienced very similar issues with AAC files created from .wav files I cut from LPs.  Unfortunately I have not found a fix that doesn't require me to buy the album on a CD.  Recently, I have had similar issues converting from MP3 to AAC files created with an alternative encoder (Audacity).  I liked using this encoder to balance the volume of my music.  That being said, using the iTunes AAC encoder (iTunes version 10.3.1.55, Quicktime 7.6.9) has yet to yield issues with playback of AAC files.
Hope this helps.

  • How can I get my music transferred from my ipod classic back to my computer?

    I have a 5th generation Ipod classic that is cracked on the surface but works still on a docking station at home in which I can select the music through my tv.  My problem is that certain music and ablums show they are on my itunes but do not play on my computer.  How can I pull the music from my ipod to my itunes so I can transfer it to a newer ipod I have now plus I want to listen to the music on my computer. 

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • Discussion: backing up or restoring from my Ipod Classic 160

    Recently I had a hard disk problem on my PC and had a new disk installed as H drive. I use Windows XP home edition and H is now the start up drive.
    The previous hard disk remains as C drive.
    I have had major problems restoring the backed up music from an external hard drive that I thought had my entire music library backed up. But apparently not so.
    Anyway, right now I am satisfied that my Ipod Classic 160 has my entire music library (approx 12000 songs) on it and is working satisfactorily. (I purchased the Ipoc Classic 160 earlier this year to replace a defective Ipod Classic 120 and at that time the Itunes library synched perfectly with the new Ipod.
    Similarly, when I open Itunes it shows my music library and playlists as they should be.
    I have purchased a third party software (CopyTrans) with the view of restoring my Ipod and its contents and hopefully again synchronising it with Itunes.
    But I am not sure the best way to go. I dread the thought of doing something that could compromise the data on my Ipod Classic 160 because it seems the only place where my entire music library is intact.
    I can't explain how or why files are missing from my hard disk (H drive) or external back up (J drive).
    I've contacted Apple support and they have been most helpful as far as they can be. They can't assist with advice of getting the data back from my Ipod Classic 160 and again synchronising with Itunes.
    I am conscious of the old saying that a little knowledge is sometimes worse than none at all and am rather nervous about what I need to do so any advice or assistanct would be appreciated.
    Thanks in anticipation

    I think I know what you're trying to do, and I know how to do it, but I'm not entirely sure. if you want the songs, pictures, etc. that are on your iPod to transfer to your computer, there is a way of doing that simply through the computer its self. without buying anything. it's entirely free and legal. and then if I'm understanding correctly, you have an external hard drive that you want all of those songs on. so if I were to tell you how to take the songs from your iPod, put them on your computer, and then move them from your computer to an external hard drive, would that answer your question? because, if so, I can tell you how to do that, but if thats not the answer you're looking for, then I can't be sure exactly what the question is that you're asking. sorry, hope I can be of help..

  • How to transfer photos from iPod classic (earlier version) to my mc

    I just brought a new imac and I am trying to transfer my photos from my ipod classic earlier version (software version 1.3, 30GB) to my iMAC.

    The photos syned to the iPod are very low res versions of the original photos, optimized to fit on the iPod's small screen while taking up as little space in storage as possible.  They are stored in a single special database file.  You cannot use iTunes to transfer them to the Mac, and if you could, they would look bad blown up to a larger size on the iMac's screen.
    There is a setting on the iPod's Photos screen in iTunes (a checkbox) that says Include full-resolution photos.  IF that setting was checked when you synced the photos to the iPod, you can Enable disk use and find the originial full res photo files in the Photos folder (on the iPod).
    Otherwise, you should transfer the original photo files from your previous computer, if possible.

    Hello JLGBone,
    It sounds like you are needing to transfer your music from your iPod classic to your computer. The following article will help you transfer your iTunes Store purchases:

    Can't see ipod videos from 60GB ipod classic.  I have Apple USB/video cable running through Onkyo receiver into Samsung TV. Video & TV out settings seem correct-I can see album cover, but no video. Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play or do I need to get new ipod.   It works on my iPad and iPhone, but not through iPod Classic.

    Are these music videos located under Videos on your iPod?  Do it play other regular movies (if you have any on the device)?

  • Can anyone tell me how to get rid of Genius?

    I don't use Genius and don't even want to be reminded it's on my system. I don't want to wait while Genius updates, don't want to wait while Genius results are sent to or from Apple, don't want Genius playlists on my new iPad or anywhere else for that matter. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of Genius on my iMac, MacBook Air, iPhone and iPad? Thanks.

    I'm kinda confused...

    I've never seen any advertising in iTunes.
    Genius is a feature I don't use but it's impossible to ignore. I'd just like it to not be there, simple as that.
    I ignore it just fine.
    Turn off Genius in iTunes menu - Store and turn off the Genius sidebar.
    Won't see it, don't use it.

    Hi FWFFP,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below will explain how to get music onto your new computer.  I'd personally recommend the option of copying the iTunes library from your current computer to an external drive, because it creates a backup for you as well:

  • Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?

    Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?
    I have had my 30 GB iPod video for about 7 years, it was a gift and has served me well. Unfortunately it was in my pocket when I brushed up against a very powerful magnet which latched onto the unit and scrambled the hardware. Sad iPod icon.
    I was told I probably need to replace the HD in order to get it back to working order. What I am wondering is, would I be able to replace it with a larger capacity drive so long as I got a unit that was slim enough to fit into the casing?

    Have you tried resetting the PRAM? http://gigaom.com/2011/07/26/when-to-reset-your-macs-pram-and-smc/
    Which Windows version are you trying to install? If I remember right, you can't use windows 8 on these older machines.
    Other than that it's hard to say what could have gone wrong. I can only suggest going through the steps again carefully and making sure everything worked the way it should.

  • Can't get rid of non-syncing playlists on iPhone!

    My iPhone has playlists that aren't even selected for syncing in iTunes, and I can't figure out how to get them off the iPhone. I even deleted all the music from my iPhone, and then reinstalled my regular iPhone playlist to bring back my music, but that didn't get rid of these other playlists that I don't even have selected for sync.
    Anyone have a fix for this?
    Thanks!

    I did finally solve this problem. As best I can remember it, it only happens with "Smart Playlists".
    So what you do is add a filter for each playlist you have the problem with: Kind = Audio (or maybe it's "Music").
    Anyway, that worked. I was then able to stop these from syncing to the iPhone. And then delete them!
    There's a thread on this somewhere here.

  • HT1320 I lost all my podcasts to day from my ipod classic but not my music.  After trying several times I still cannot load my podcasts back onto my ipod from my MAC. How do I do this?

    Today I lost all my podcasts from my ipod classic.  My music remained on the ipod.  Why did this happen and how do I get them back onto my ipod from my MAC?

    If all of these missing podcasts are still in iTunes, simply reconfigure them to sync to your iPod via the iPod's Podcast configuration pane in iTunes. To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane. Over to the right, in the main window pane of iTunes, look for the Podcasts tab along the top and select it.
    Here you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device. If you do happen to make any changes from under this tab, be sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to sync the update changes to your iPod Classic.

  • How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic.  ITunes wiped out all my contacts and there is even no place for contacts any more on my macBook.

    How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic.  iTunes wiped out all my contacts from my iPod classic and now I no longer even show a place for contacts on my computer when I plug in my iPod.

    You don't download iTunes by connecting your phone to iTunes and yes of course, by syncing your phone with your husbands computer, of course you will have lost all your stuff and you will have his.
    When you connect to iTunes, you sync.
    To get back all your things, then you need to sync your phone to the computer that you used originally to set your phone up - if this is your computer, then connect your phone to that and sync it with iTunes on that and you will get your stuff back, but when you connect to iTunes you sync and don't download.
    Ringtones should download automatically to your phone and if not, if you are getting them on your computer, then download them to your computer with your iTunes on and double click to get the MP3 file to open in iTunes and then sync your phone to your computer and you will get the ringtone on your phone.
