HT1349 I have a nano I never registered it, Its saying it can't sync my music because I have too many songs..

I have a Nano, I haven't ever registered it. It pops up an error message saying I have too many songs and it can't be synced. I need help.

Take a look at this link-> Apple - Support - iPod nano
specifically, the "Is there enough room on the iPod?" (about ⅓ of the way down this page)
in the Apple - Support - iPod nano - Syncing section.
If you still have the problem, the retailer who sold you the iPod nano can help you.

HT4914 I want to sign up for itunes match but have too many songs.

I want to subscribe to itunes match but I have too many songs. Is there a way to select songs to store w/match like I can when syncing devices? I just get an error message that I can't subscribe because I have too many songs. I want to be able to back up some of my library w/match. Do I have to delete songs just so I can subscribe?

I found the same thing wtih my iPad. "Not available in USA". I bought the iPad here, and I am definitely in the US, and my settings confirm that I am registered in the US. So something else is going on. I went to an Apple store; the technician there showed me how to sign on to iTunes on my home computer and register for itunes match on the home computer -- but when I got home I couldn't get it to work.

I have too many songs on my ipad, how do i get rid of them?

When I got my ipad last year I loaded many songs onto it. Since then, I have used itunes match, and still have all of those songs still taking up valuable space on my ipad. How do I free this up?

I agree with the above user (TheAppleHelperMan) however i dont think you cam delete songs by swiping them on the device because when you next plug your ipad into the computer they will automatically sync back on...
Connect your ipad to the computer, go on itunes, let it sync if it wants to and them go under music and there should be a little tick box with something along the lines of sync only selected songs, tick that and then something should pop up with all your music, go through and tick the music you want, then press done or something like that and then sync your ipad again... This should work because it has worked with m in the pass...
Hope i helped..

Cab you have too many songs in Itunes?

I currently have 10.000 songs and by the time I'm done it will be around 15.000. Is putting them all in the one library OK to do or is there something else I should be doing.
Thanks

I tried too download too many songs unto my ipod

please help me.
I'm such a loser.
ha.
OK. so, I had about 960 songs on my ipod and I was updating it today and this a message came up saying that I had tried to download too many songs. The ipod could either choose the songs I wanted on my ipod for me or I could choose. I got confused, and said the ipod should choose for me. On itunes along with all my regualr songs there is now a playlist with about 900 songs of the ones they picked. When I updated my ipod the only thing that was on it was said playlist. So I of course freak out, go into itunes and delete that list. Once the list is delated I plug my ipod back into the computer and come back only to find that all the songs on my ipod are gone. everything. However, even though the playlist is gone the 900 something orginal songs still remain on itunes itself. After freaking out again, I try to plug my ipod back in to see if now it will put the 968 songs back unto the ipod, it doesn't. I delete some songs off my itunes that I can live without.. still nothing. I only have 3.73 GBs on my mini ipod so the space can't be taken up can it?
can I get my songs back on my ipod??

Use the instructions in this article to set the iPod to sync manually, and then drag the songs you want on the iPod to the iPod in the iTunes source list. The message you got means that your iTunes library is too big for all of it to fit on the iPod.

Problems syncing because of too many songs

I have an iPod nano second generation. (2 GB) I recently put too many songs on my computer and then tried to sync them to my iPod. A notice came up telling me that the computer would select a chunk of the songs for me and put them on my iPod. I deleted enough of the songs on my computer to fit on my ipod, however, itunes won't put them all on my ipod. itunes kept selecting a smaller number of songs to sync. I tried deleting the playlist itunes kept selecting for my ipod, but now it won't let me sync ANY songs.Please help!!

You can keep as many songs in iTunes as you want.
I have ~30GB music and have a 4GB iPod.
now it won't let me sync ANY songs
Because iTunes is looking for the playlist you deleted.
Here's how to do it;
Create a new playlist.
Make it 1.8GB in size.
Select the iPod in iTunes.
Click the Music tab.
Tick Sync music.
Tick Sync selected playlists and select this new playlist you created.
To change the music on the iPod, simply add/remove songs from this playlist and then plug in the iPod.
Make sure to keep this playlist under 1.8GB.
Or you can create a new Smart laylist and limit it to 1.8GB at random.
To change the music, simply select the playlist, select all the songs in it and press Delete. It will fill up with new music.

Too many songs - techniques?

hey all;
so I actually have an iPhone, but this thread is more iPod/music related.
the bottom line is, I have way too many songs on iTunes for my 32GB iPhone. I've done the following:
-downsample songs that have high bitrates to 19kbps (the lowest i'm wil;ing to accept, down from 256)
-uncheck artists who have a lot of music but I don't listen to (that's you, death metal days...)
-get rid of 45 minute songs and such that I don't listen to
-delete most of the comedy stuff
-get rid of apps that take up a lot of space
-take off most of the photos and all of the videos
i've managed to save a decent amount of space, but not much. I avoided a crises two months ago, but its impending again.
the problem is, I'm not ready to part with much else and I'm quickly running out of room. Of the over 5400 songs in iTunes, about 5000 made it onto my iPhone.
I'm really not willing to random shuffle the songs on my iPhone, and I do have nested folders with my most recent playlists etc.
So my question really is, does anyone out there have any other techniques they use for trimming down what gets synced to their devices? any ideas are appreciated...
thanks,
ekozie

This would be more appropriate in the iphone forum. Very few will see it here.
We use playlists for our iphones. This allows us to sync whatever we feel like at the time, and can easily change our selections.

My ipod touch won't let me download apps, it tells me that I have too many photos and videos but I haven't got any photos or videos at all.

My ipod touch 4g keeps telling me that I have too many photos and videos and will not let me download apps. I have deleted all the photos and videos and some of my old apps but it keeps telling me the same message. I have tried to sync it with the pc and I have turned it on and off and I have reset it but nothing has worked. Please help! Thank you

Go to Setting>General>About. oow much avaialbe storage do you have?
Have you tried resetting the iPOd?
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Why does it keep telling me I have too many tabs open even if I only have one or 2?

When I am online, several times a day it will not open a new tab and pop up a screen that tells me I have too many tabs open and gives me the option to let it close them or I can close them. But I may only have 1 tab open, sometimes more than that but it doesn't seem to matter how many. I can shut down my computer and bring it back up and it will work ok for a little while and then all of a sudden when I go to open a new tab it does it all over again. I am using mozilla and vista.

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

We have too many apple devices, how can I creat another apple ID and divide the devices among 2 Apple Ids?

Hello all,
We started off with the original iPhone a few years ago and now between my wife and I (plus Kids) we have too many apple devices under the same apple-ID (2 X iPhone 6+, 2X macbook Pro, 2X iPod-touch and 1X iPad)
We are constantly running into issues because everyone in the house is using the same apple id, downloading Apps using the same ID, sharing the same cloud and receiving each other's iMessages.
I know that I can create another Apple-ID, what I am unclear on is once I do have a new apple ID, how do I assign that to half the devices (1X iPhone 6+, 1 X MBP and 1 Ipad)
Please respond if you are able to help.
Thank you

I'm not sure what they told your at the Apple store, but each Apple ID can only create a single iCloud account. If you want separate accounts for all these devices, they will have to be created using separate IDs. Note: you can do this and still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account. The iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services.
To create an account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with a different Apple ID. If you want to migrate a copy of the current iCloud data to the different accounts, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

Icloud asks for ID and password. Says I have too many ID's. Need to delete ID's

ICloud is asking for a ID and password. When I try to add, it says I have too many ID's and can't go any further. I cant get to :Settings-ICloud-delete account . How can I delete an account?

Why not?

Can't add new icloud account to iPhone says that I have too many accounts please help! Forgot old username and email

I Made a new icloud account bc forgot my username and email and now I can't access bc says I have too many accounts on phone please help!

If the messages says the maximum number of accounts have already been created, you will not be able to create a new one on that phone. All you can do in that case is either reuse one of the accounts previously created or create your new account on a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.

Is it possible to have too many keyframes in one project in Premiere?

Hi all,
I'm using Premiere 6 on a Windows 7 ULT machine.
Is it possible to have too many keyframes in one project in Premiere?
I'm getting app crashes when I try to re-open a certain project in Premiere 6 and it seems that if that file has over 93 keyframes, then it will not re-open. But I can re-open that exact same project file with 93 keyframes in it, no problem.
But if I go any further and create any more keyframes than 93 in a new re-saved version of the exact same file, then that file will not re-open and I get an app crash... you can see screenshots of the two Windows app crash info panels below that I'm getting from three different bad Premiere project files that I've created so far.
I've tested and tested what is going on here and this seems to be what is causing the bad files. I've re-created the scenario and re-created files with over 93 keyframes from the same base project file that will still open... as soon as I get more than 93 keyframes in this file, then that newly saved file will not re-open after I close and try to re-open it.
This is 75 keyframes in one still image clip, 14 keyframes in another still image clip and 2 keyframes each in two other still image clips in a single project file... that is the limit... if I create any more keyframes in the clip that has 75 keyframes, the new file will save and render, but it won't re-open once it has been closed.
The two slightly different app crash info panels show, in the first one below,
"Fault Module Name: StackHash_e98d"
... and the second one shows,
"Fault Module Name: PREMINFO.dll"
... both messages with a little more different info in each one. I get either of the two error info panels when trying to re-open all three bad files that I've created with over 93 keyframes in them. That is, two of the files alternate between giveing "StackHash_e98d" and "PREMINFO.dll" when trying to open them and one of them always shows the "Fault Module Name: PREMINFO.dll" error.
So even the error messages are inconsistent with two of the bad files.
I've searched the internet for this error in association with Premiere and I've also searched on this forum and found nothing. Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks,
digi

Bill,
Even though I figured out a work around, I was still interested to know if these file opening crashes are related to Virtual Memory.
So on the topic of Virtual Memory... a few months ago I was troubleshooting a different problem in Premeire and I found this information...
"To improve performance in Premiere Pro, adjust the size of the paging file to a maximum of twice the amount of installed RAM."
Previous to that time three months ago or so, I had my Virtual Memory settings at the default automatic setting, but I tried setting my VM to twice the amount of installed RAM, and I've had it set that way ever since, just to make sure I'm optimizing the VM performance for Premiere and other apps.
But that isn't making any difference in this case. Today I also found information in a search that says to troubleshoot StackHash crashes, one should turn off "DEP" in the system settings for the application with the crash problem... according to the paragraph below, from the second post down by Chris on this tdistler.com page... http://tdistler.com/2009/04/10/stackhash-and-application-crashes-on-windows
Even though this was written in 2009 with Windows Vista in mind, many things for Vista work in Windows 7... it says,
"Here’s how 99 percent of Vista users can fix a StackHash failure. I’ll walk you through it step by step:
Method A:
1. Open your Start menu and click Control Panel
2. Browse to “System Maintenance” then “System”
3. In the left panel, select “Advanced System Settings” from the available links
4. You should now see the System Properties Window, which will have three sections. The top section is labeled “Performance” and has a “Settings” button. Click this button.
5. Select the “Data Execution Prevention” tab.
6. Select the option which reads “Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select”
7. Use the “Browse” button to locate the executable file for the application you were trying to start when you received the StackHash error, and click Open to add it to your exceptions list.
8. Click Apply or OK to commit your changes."
But I tried this and none of the three problem files that I encountered would open... I still got the StackHash_e98d or PREMINFO.dll crash errors.
So anyway, I'm a ways past that in my project now, just continuing with more keyframes over the number of 78 in separate but identical still image clips... that allows me to successfully work with this project with as many keyframes as I need.
Thanks again,
digi
