Help Please With iPod Player On My 3GS

Hello, Could anyone help me with a problem with my iPod part of my iPhone 3GS. The iPod will start to play my desired Playlist, but during the playback, the track album covers forget the last played track and franticly search for it. The album covers can rotate for ever and eventually lock the phone up and steel the album cover images at random. I have to then re-sync with iTunes to get them back. My last 3G phone did the same thing and I had it replaced, but still the same with the new 3G. Now I have a new 3GS, so the problem must be in iTunes Folder. I have a lot of tracks & platlists so I don't want to rush to reformat iTunes. Any ideas please? Jeff

I'm having the same issue - did you ever find a solution?

Need Help Please with Ipod 20G

Long story short....I had my Ipod 4G and computer stolen several month ago on a business trip(have police report). A friend of mine recently purchased a new Video Ipod and gave me his old 20G...pretty nice of him! I am about to have iTunes loaded on to my new computer. Here are my questions I need help with please.
1. Will I need to setup a new iTunes account or can I use my old one?
2. Will I have to reset my newly acquired Ipod before I can place my music on it? I did back up about 80% of the songs from my old Ipod. Or will I be able to keep the 1500 songs my friend placed on it?
3. Or would it be easier for me to give him back his, cough up the $300 dollars for a new one and start all over?
Can't think of anything else I might need to know. If there is something I am missing and you could help fill in the blanks for me I would truly appreciate the help.
Thanks so much!!

1. No. You can use your old one.
2. Will I have to reset my newly acquired Ipod before I can place my music on it? No, but iTunes may automatically do this, I will explain.
I did back up about 80% of the songs from my old Ipod. Or will I be able to keep the 1500 songs my friend placed on it?
Sorry, but it would not be legal to keep the 1500 songs on this iPod that were your friend's songs, assuming that he's still using/listening to them on another computer.
3. No, I think it would be worth it to keep going, and use the 20GB iPod on your computer. It's not many hoops to jump through, and you should be up and syncing in no time.
Overall, it's fairly easy, and I would suggest that you keep going with this iPod.
My note from question #2:
If you connect an iPod that hasn't been attatched to your computer before, iTunes will most likely display [to the effect of] this message when you connect the iPod for the first time:
"The songs on the iPod "~~" are linked to another iTunes library. Would you like to replace the content of the iPod with this current iTunes library?"
Be sure to click on "NO" when you recieve this message.
Then, click on your iPod's name in the left panel of iTunes.
Click on the "Music" tab.
Deselect "Sync Music" if it is already set to this option.
This means that your iPod is on manual managing now, instead of iTunes automatically transferring songs to your iPod, or deleting them, which is not what you want at this time.
Now, if you have any songs on the iPod that you need to keep (i.e., if you have some of your songs on this iPod)you have a few options to transfer your iPod songs to your computer.
Method 1 - Manually transfer your iPod songs to iTunes using MacMuse's post. See it here -> iPod songs to computer (MacMuse post)
Method 2 - Add your iPod's folder into the iTunes library (via iTunes). Read this post here -> Using iTunes settings to transfer iPod songs to iTunes
Method 3 - Use a third-party program to get the transferring done. For a Windows computer, CopyPod should work good. Also, you can try out YamiPod
I hope that info helps you.

Help Please with Flash Player Updates not installing

Hi,
Please could someone help? I have recently bought an Asus Laptop with 6 meg Ram & 2.4 Ghz & Windows 7 64 Bit and the vendor (Pc World) installed MS office, Adobe Flash player & full Norton 360 anti virus software for me. The issue I am having is that I am getting a message from Adobe saying an update to Flash player is available & when I click install it then goes to the small message box saying connecting and then it just hangs forever even though my wireless is at full strength & can also already be on the web searching other pages so it is not a internet connection problem.
When I try to download the latest version ( I have 10.3. & trying to download 11.) direct from Adobe it then it starts the download after I click Run and then during initialisation it get to 12% each time & then says connection timed out & this all happens in space of 1 - 2 seconds.
I have gone to Internet options & the Security Tab & have moved the slider to "medium" on both Internet & Trusted Sites Tabs as advised by Adobe site, the Active Scripting is also enabled & ActiveX Filtering is also disabled.
Could Norton be causing the block & if so please can someone help me on how to sort this as Norton support has been useless blaming it all on Adobe?
Many Thanks in advance for anyone's assistance

Click Start, type msconfig.exe, press Enter, click Selective startup, uncheck Load startup items. Click Services tab, check Hide all Microsoft services, click Disable all, click Ok, click Restart.
How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?
After the install.
Click Start, type msconfig.exe, press Enter, click Normal startup, click ok, click Restart.

Need help please with ipod mini

Hi,I had my ipod mini sent into service as the pasue button was bust and I now have a totally new ipod mini send out and Im trying to install it on the pC and it doesnt let me,need help pls

You may need to format the iPod for use with Windows.
Try this instead of using the supplied installation CD.
Download the iPod Updater, install this to your computer, restart the computer, run the Updater, then connect your iPod when prompted (not before), then follow the set up procedure.
If this is what you are having problems with, then post back with what happens and any error messages you see.

Help please with ipods dock windows and mac based

Hello everyone,
I have an ipod but want to upload from two different locations. I found out from a reply from a previous question that I can do that but my problem seems to be that I have a windows based laptop at home but at my other location in my office I am using a Mac. From what I read I can not do this from one location to the other without reformating my ipod everytime which would be useless to me sense I do not have the same music or do all of my purchases from one location. Is this possible to upload from a windows and mac computer from two different locations or is this impossible? Thanks in advance!!!

Probably the easiest way to use an iPod on both Mac and Windows computers is to format the iPod (using iPod Updater) using the PC. This will force your iPod to use the Windows file system (FAT32) which both the Mac and PC can read from and write to without the help of additional software. Of course then all your software updates for the iPod will have to be done on Windows.  If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.
Then see this.

Help please with FaceTime. The built in app seems to have disappeared from my iPad2. Bought it in Australia

Help please with FaceTime. My built in app seems to have disappeared.

If K Penguin's suggestion doesnt work, you will have to go to you iTunes and do a reset, that is if you do not have it in your back up library.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, for tv hook up.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, to hook up to tv for streaming. The display works through VGA but the audio isn't working. Got a plug that goes into headphone jack on computer and connects into the audio jack on the back of tv but no sound. I'm not quite sure what the issue is, whether its the wrong plug, the tv, or the computer. Best Buy says this is the right plug and it seems that it would be, but who knows. If anyone has any experience in this, I would appreciate the help!

Make sure those audio plugs are matched with the VGA plug. With your MacBook running something with audio switch between your sources on the TV Component, Composite and such. See if the sound is coming from another source. If so then you've got your audio plugs in the wrong jacks.
Also could you post the make and model number of your TV.

I too have problems with code.
What I am saying is that, if you click the above link, it comes up with a message "Error Loading XML Document".
In other words, there would appear to be an error with the player you are trying to load.

I disconnected my ipod and I still get that "Do not disconnect message" And it doesnt even flash.

Try Resetting your iPod. Hold down the MENU and SELECT (centre) buttons for five or ten seconds until you see the Apple logo appear then the menu button to go to the normal display. Have a look at this link as well:
iPod won't turn on
iPod stops responding or will not waken from sleep
