I'm having issues with syncing my music.

Recently, I upgraded my computer to Windows 7, from Vista. I've recovered all my music, and ringtones from my old windows. Supposedly authorised my new Windows for syncing. I currently have 19 GBs of music on my phone, which I'm reducing to 16.2 GBs.. but everytime I go to sync my music. It keeps telling me that it requires 16.5 GBs, which means it's not erasing the music already on my phone..? It won't let me access its music through my computer or iTunes (via manual music adding or whatever it's called) .. I don't know how to clear the music. When it shows the summary, there's no music data, until I click the music tab where the 19 GBs show up again. Help??

With the device connected, if you select the music tab and have "Sync Music" checked, you must manage music from that tab.
If you do not want to manage music that way, uncheck the "Sync Music" option then on the Summary tab you must check the "manage media manually" option.

Having issues with putting purchased music back into iTunes after reinstall

I have been having issues with iTunes closing itself out right after I open it. I deleted the program, then re-installed it, which fixed the problems with quitting. However, I cannot copy my previous library back into iTunes. I saved the iTunes music file and the .xml file to my desktop before uninstalling the program. When I tried to add the music back into iTunes, I keep getting this message: Attempting to copy the disk "Macintosh HD" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to. It does not appear on all songs that I tried to add back, but it happened for quite a few of my purchased songs. Is there any way to fix the files or do I need to download the songs again? I tried running the Disk Utility to repair Permissions, but that has not helped with anything.
I am running iTunes on a MacBook with Mac OS X 10. 4. 11, if that will help with anything.

I had to reinstall Windows XP, erasing everything on the hard disk. I had saved the music files with backup software, so I now have them back. But iTunes won't add them to my library. I tried importing songs from a new CD to see where iTunes put those files, and then copying an album folder into the same location. But Windows wouldn't copy the files inside the foder. Nearly all the songs were originally taken from CDs in my collection, and the songs are still on my iPod Nano.
Wow,
Wonder why XP won't let you copy files?, perhaps you used a different user name?
Or these are the old DRM versions of the songs? You should be able to log into your iTunes account and authorize the computer and iTunes should recognize the songs.
Well since you have the iPod Nano, you can head over to iLounge and ask them what current third party software works to move your iPod Nano music back to iTunes.
Hope that works out for you

Having issue with Syncing Events from Iphoto to Apple Tv

All of a sudden I have multiple events of the same title but different amount of photos when i try to sync my photos to apple tv. Iphoto is fine, nothing is changed but when I go over to itunes to sync I see like 10 different Events with same name. EVERYTHING is multiplied but there is no rhyme or reason to it. !!!!! Apple has done some system/app updates but they are so frequent that I don't ever pay attention to what is being updated I just click to allow the process. I believe this occurred after one of the updates, I have 2 Apple TV's AT1 and AT2. AT2 is a nightmare to begin with because it was constantly getting kicked off the network but now that isn't the issue. Now it isn't showing current syncs which doesn't make sense because I thought this one streamed everything directly. Either way---APPLE TV is having issues and I can't get my EVENTS straightened out, HELP!!!!!

I've also noticed this started happening... Its something with iTunes, because both my old Apple TV's and my iPhone and iPad all show multiple events for the same event... Lots of them! So many its hard to tell what to sync now. When I click on any of my devices photos tab in iTunes they are all exactly the same. Not sure how to fix it...

Having issues with syncing my ipod.

I am unsure if it's my ipod or itunes messing around, but since the update to 9.1, everytime i attempt to sync my ipod, it frezzes my laptop. After i disconnect it, it comes up with the message "the ipod 'nick's' cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to". I have tried the 5 'r's more than once each, except for restore, as it doesnt show up in itunes and i don't know how to restore it without it. I also tried downgrading back to 9.0.3 and i still had the problem. I always safely disconnect my ipod aswell.
Any ideas on what's wrong? and anyone know how to restore an ipod without using itunes?

Restore...
Note that it's easy to do but it's quite time-consuming. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Having issues with syncing 23.98 HD video to 24fps audio

Hello everyone,
I'm working on a feature that was shot on the Sony EX3 at a frame rate of 23.98NDF (1920 * 1080 HD). I am trying to sync it to audio that was recorded at 24fpsNDF with a sample rate of 48khz and a bit rate of 24.
When I merge the two together the audio seems too slow for the video. I checked the metadata of the video clips and it reads that the onboard mic was recording at a sample rate of 48khz and a bit rate of 16. Could that possibly be an issue?
I've search the FCP manual on what to do as well as a couple of forums but I have not found a real solution to my problem. If you could please help me out by either explaining what I should do or sending me a link as to where I can find the answer I am searching for I would greatly appreciate it since time is of the essence for me.
Thank you,
Ian

First,
Kick the one that made the decision to work this way.
Second,
Kick him again...
What happens is that BWF does NOT hold timecode, but 'samples after midnight'
This means that TC 00:00:02:00 is written as 96000
(Your sampling rate is 48000, times two seconds is 96000)
But DF and NDF do not run at the same timebase. (NDF TC runs slower, but note the actual video does NOT)
From memory you can import the BWF with another setting than your project, perhaps that'll save your butt.
My advice, go to Andreas' site (www.spherico.com) and look around there.
He has written a lot about the subject, and your answer must be there.
hth,

Computer crashed, now having issues with syncing

Well our computer crashed. We had it fixed and I had to reinstall Itunes. I bought an app on Itunes through the computer and tried to sync it to my iPod. It told me that I have to erase everything on my iPod because you can only sync to one computer. Well I have a bunch of songs and other apps that I do not want to have to re-buy. How do I sync everything and get it all together? I am not trying to use more than one computer, my hard drive had to be completely replaced.

Welcome to the discussions,
Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer. Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

How to download apps for free again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
Music and other media you did not buy in iTunes and pictures are not part of the backup. But there are other ways to copy such content, although not supported by Apple. See this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

I'm having issues with syncing songs I just purchased from iTunes. Please help me?

I just purchased a few new songs from the iTunes store on my macbook pro, but I can't sync them to my iPod touch because whenever I try to, a box comes up that says I need to authorize my computer, which I've done more than once and it doesn't seem to help. This is really starting to aggravate me. Does anybody know what I should do?

CS3 is too old to run on a new Macintosh laptop, sorry. You'll have to purchase CS6 or a Creative Cloud subscription.

I was having issues with my 80G Video iPod and had to restore it, but now it seems all of my music on it previously is "corrupt" . How did all my songs get corrupted and how do I fix them?

I was having issues with syncing my 80G video iPod, so I restored it, and now all my songs in my library are "corrupted" and I can't get them back on my iPod. I keep getting error(-69). How did my songs all get corrupted, and how do I fix this without having to purchase these songs all over again?

Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content.

This if course will not apply to songs you did not buy through the iTunes Store.

I had to do a complete system restore on my computer and now I am having issues getting all my music back. It's telling me that my account is in use with a different user but I'm the only user on my computer. When I go to sync it, it wants to delete all.

When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially. The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB. Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB. I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame. If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.
