HT1719 'determining tracks to sync' stays in the banner bar forever, no tracks (podcasts) sync

My shuffle will not sync to any of my old podcasts and continues to have the 'determining tracks to syncs' show up when I try it manually

My shuffle will not sync to any of my old podcasts
This problem occurs with ALL of your "old" podcasts?  Does it work with "new" podcasts?  If it works with newer podcasts (or podcasts that you recently downloaded), can you see anything that differentiates "old" versus "new"?  That might provide a clue for the cause.
continues to have the 'determining tracks to syncs' show up when I try it manually
When you were trying to sync podcasts automatically (NOT manually), did iTunes provide any indication that the podcasts did not sync (like an error message).  If so, what was the message?  If not, how did you check to see that the podcasts were NOT on the shuffle?
Which shuffle model do you have?  This article about shuffle syncing shows the four types.

    Doesn't any bring up the fact that Apple has so many customers with problems that the refuse to help unless you pay them cash? They update you and screw you over and then offer no useful troubleshooting scenarioius to help their millions of customers. It is because they want millions of our dollars. I hate Apple.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Currently when I click on "Open all tabs" the original site stays on the menu bar. Didn't before.

    Before, when I opened all tabs the site I was on closed, this doesn't happen now. The current site stays open.
    Also, when I use hotmail another firefox browser opens. Sometimes when I close the hotmail window the other window closes instead.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

    Try this on your internal drive. Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks.
    You also might try to reset the SMC and/or PRAM.

  • When i click on exe the thing loads to the task bar and will not go to the desktop the desktop even after clicking on

    when i click on the firefox exe it loads my home page but will not load to the desktop it stays in the task bar and when i put the cursor over it i can see the the page is loaded but when i try to get it to pop onto the desktop nothing happens uninstall it an did a reinstalled same prob did a repair same problem did a system restore and sill no desktop having to use google chrome and i hate it'''bold text'''

    Alright, well let's try this then.
    Restart your computer. After you restart your PC, let's try starting Firefox up in Safe Mode. Read [[Safe Mode|this article]] to see how to start in Safe Mode. If Firefox starts up normally, then this is likely a problem with your extensions, so we will need to disable them one by one (or disable them all and re-enable them one by one) to figure out the offender.
    Another thing is please update to Firefox 11 (go to [[www.getfirefox.com|www.getfirefox.com]] to download it since you can't get Firefox open to update). It does have some bug fixes that might help your problem.

  • How do I display ethernet connection is being used rather than WI-FI connection in the menu bar/elsewhere?

    I have a new 13" retina MacBook Pro - I have wi-fi connection but also a thunderbolt/ethernet adapter that allows me to connect to my network
    Sometimes, the ethernet connection does not connect and I do not notice for a while (possibly a dodgy TP-LINK plug adapter thingy)
    My question is - how can I display that I am connected/using the ethernet connection rather than the wi-fi? The wi-fi symbol stays in the menu bar but it would be nice to see that I am using the ethernet connection instead
    Many thanks
    Mike

    I don't think you can do that. You can only display the WiFi connection on the menu bar.

  • I dont know how to get rid of the black bars on the sides of my videos. The original clips dont have them but when i import them to fcp it puts them there

    The original clips dont have them but when i import them to fcp it puts black bars on the sides of my video and i cant get rid of them

    Here's my final (and simple diagnosis) You have 4 x 3 footage that your are trying to screen at 16:9. This won't work.
    Artistically, you have three options:
    1.) Stay with the "black bars." What some of us call "Bat Wings," in the biz.
    2.) Do what some editors do and create a large "fuzzy" background to extend the edges...
    3.) Or transform / crop the image. (Or just use the "fill" option in the "Spatial Transform" section of the inspector
    But... You WILL lose some of the image

  • Help!  I'm stuck on the Task Bar and I can't get up!

    I recently upgraded to Premiere Elements 8, and now I can start the program but as soon as I open a project the window minimizes to the task bar.  I can not restore the window to show-up on the screen.  The Organizer works OK, and the Adobe startup window show-up OK.  Even the Premiere Elements window will show-up while it's loading a project, but as soon as the project is loaded... it hides down on the task bar.  It was working fine just after I installed it.  It's been a couple of weeks since I ran it last.  I have installed the 8.0.1 update.  What a tease!
    I've attached a couple of images of the program on the task bar just in case this helps.  My system is Window 7 Ultimate.  I have two 24" displays (both working fine), lots of memory and disk space, and it's a Dell XPS 9000 box.
    Please let me know how to coax my beloved Premiere Elements out of hiding!

    Hi Steve -- Thanks for your quick response.  I do have the 64-bit version installed on the C drive as shown in the screen  snippet below. The reference to the D drive in my earlier post was to the Premiere project file, which I dont keep on my system drive.  You've also suggested that I update my video driver, which I confirmed was up to date (as per snapshot below).
    You questions got me poking however, and I think I've found a way to circumvent the problem (which looks ilke a bug to me).  Apparently, the Welcome window always launches the Premiere editor in maximized mode.  When you subsequently open (a new or existing) project, the window resizes to the size that it was when you last used it.  When I was experiencing the problem, this size was "minimized on the task bar forever".
    To get around this, I used the settings menu on the top right of the Welcome window to set the option "Always Launch Premiere Elements Editor behind the Welcome Screen".  This show the editor window maximized, but it allows me to resize the editor window in the normal way, before I open a project.  Now when I subsequently opened a project file, the editor window did not dive into the Task Bar!
    Moreover, on subsequent launches the Welcome window still shows the editor window maximized, but the auto resize after opening a project now uses the size that I manually set in my manual sizing procedure in the above paragraph.  For me it's fixed!!
    Perhaps the context that provokes the bug is that I never set a non-maximized size for the editor, and the auto resize gets confused about the desired size of the editor window?
    -- Thanks, Ole Pa

  • When syncing itunes goes through the process of syncing cal,mail,etc. but when gets to determining tracks to sync it freezes

    While syncing iTunes will go through the process with no problems but when it reaches the phase that is determining tracks to sync it freezes up.

    I have the same problem when syncing just-released audio books from Audible.com. New books from last month sync fine but not this month. Audible acknowledges an issue with iTunes that would be resolve in the next fix but when is that?

  • Since migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and upgrading to iTunes 11, the latter has frozen while syncing my devices, usually while at the "determining apps to sync" stage of the process.  If I am attempting to download app updates before attempting to

    Since migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and upgrading to iTunes 11, the latter has frozen while syncing my devices, usually while at the “determining apps to sync” stage of the process.  If I am attempting to download app updates before attempting to sync, the problem normally occurs at the first “installing app x” stage.  In addition, the whole iTunes experience is extremely sluggish and will even freeze while searching for a track.  Everything worked fine on Windows 7.  So far, I have repaired the program several times and have checked for compatibility issues, but there is no Windows 8 option in the combo box, obtained after right-clicking the icon and selecting Properties/Compatibility.  As a result, I am unable to sync my devices. If I uninstall iTunes before re-installing, will this affect my iTunes libraries?  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    After going by elimination to isolate if the problem was from (1) iTunes app, (2) my computer or (3) my old iPhone 4G, I figured out what my problem was.
    1) First I deleted & reinstalled iTunes on my Windows PC without succes, my playlist did not changed on my iPhone.
    2) I tested a successful #sync from the iMac at work.
    So my conclusion is: The hard drive on my Windows PC is full and that is affecting iTunes SYNC functionalities.
    So I'll do a back-up then run a "Clean Install" of my Windows OS, hoping that it will fix my SYNC problems.

  • I upgraded to itunes 10.7. Now when I try to sync my new iphone 5 it gets stuck in step 6 of 8 determining tracks to sync

    I upgraded to itunes 10.7 and now when I try to sync my iphone 5 it gets stuck in step 6 of 8 determining tracks. I reload 10.7 and rebooted everything. What do i do?

    Had the same thing happen to me when I tried syncing my iPhone this a.m. - talked to Apple 7 hours ago and evidently there's an "issue" with the iTunes server. The Apple adviser told me to try syncing in an hour. Well, rather than do that, I've continued to check Twitter, searching on "itunes sync" or "itunes server" - seems the problem's still going on.
    I'm going to wait it out til tomorrow. Or whenever.
    The REASON I was synching is that ever since the iOS 5 "upgrade" photos that were in albums synced from iPhoto had disappeared. Not all the photos, just all the photos in some albums. Weird.
    Too many bugs in iOS 5 (syncing, Bluetooth connectivity, etc.). They should have waited til it was right before releasing it.

  • My ipod has been connected for over an hour, and it still says 'determining tracks to sync'. What should I do?

    I have an iPod classic 30GB. I've just got a new laptop and i have transferred my itunes library from my old laptop to my new one. I've also updated my library substantially, and want to erase everything from my ipod and sync the new library onto it. However, it's been connected for an hour and is still saying 'determining tracks to sync'. Is this normal? How long should it take, if my new library is about 10.5GB large?

    When you switched chargers, did you use the 10 watt chargers designed for the iPad?  Did you also change the connecting wires?  Have you tried power off, hold the sleep/power button until the red slider appears and slide to off.  Then plug the iPad in?
    If none of that is working, it could be a bad 30-pin connector in the iPad...an Apple genius bar tech can test and see if that is the problem.

  • IPod classic not syncing - "determining tracks to sync"

    Hi everyone, hopefully someone will be able to help me out with this. I've had my iPod 80GB classic for about a year now, (it's out of warranty) and about a month agoit suddenly started playing up. When it's connected to my laptop, iTunes recognises that an iPod is connected but it doesn't add any music to it. It tells me that the sync is complete, but during the sync it tells me that it is determining tracks to sync and then says it's complete, but nothing is added. I have no idea what's wrong with it, i have the latest version of iTunes and am really frustrated with it now! if anyone's encountered this problem and has the solution i'd be really grateful. I'm using windows vista if that information is helpful at all! Thank-you
    I've read another thread on this matter and the user suggested doing a check to see if it's the harddrive and these are the results
    Retracts: 5
    Reallocs: 8
    Pending Sectors: 0
    Power on hours: 1044
    Start/stops: 14494
    no idea what any of those mean but any help would be brilliant
    Thanks,

    I too have the same problem with an iPod classic 80GB on a macbook with iTunes 10 and snow leopard with all the latest updates.
    If I leave mine syncing overnight then it will finish, but doesn't actually add the newly downloaded tracks. Otherwise it just continually says Syncing ipod step 2 of 2 determining tracks to sync.
    This is in my opinion a catastrophic failure and should be no. 1 priority for apple to fix. I don't listen to music on my mac, I listen on my iPod or iPod dock, so now I have purchased genuine iTunes songs which are of no use to me until I can get them onto my iPod.
    I have also tried to restore my iPod which worked fine, so now I have no music on my iPod at all and iTunes still won't sync anything to it.
    This seems to be affecting a lot of users as I've seen various other posts with the same issue.
    Please apple fix this issue with iTunes urgently.
    I also read on a forum somewhere probably this one, that uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes doesn't solve the problem but I don't know if anyone has rolled back to version 9
