I'm new to the ipod thing, what do the check marks mean?

I'm sorry to bother people with this simple questions, but I looked all throught the tutorial and coudn't find the explanation for the check marks in the boxes in front of the song titles

In iTunes the "Check marks" serve 2 porpuses.
1) If you have a song unchecked it will not play. Lets say you have a playlist with 4 songs, and you uncheck the 3rd one, well when its playing it will play track 1, track 2 then skip track 3 and play track 4. If all songs are unchecked, the second the first song is dome playing it just stops playing any songs til you select one.
2) If you have an iPod AND your iPod preferences are set to "Only Update checked songs" all songs without a checkmark are not added to your iPod, this is good for songs you don't really like or seasonal songs like xmas songs. To set this on an iPod, connect it to the PC, rightclick the iPod in iTunes, hit "Ipod options" then check the box beside "Update only checked songs"

I am looking for a description of the columns in the song "window" for iTunes 11. What does the check mark mean?

Why does apple make this so difficult. I just want to know what the check mark column means in the song "window" of itunes 11. How does it relate to iCloud? When I click on a song, it disappears.

under usage-i only have the camera roll, photo library and photostream-they don't show the individual albums withing my libraries-if i delete library-i would delete about 12 albums
I don't sync pics but was hoping the albums showed up there. It was a long shot.

Whats the check mark for?

cant find this answer anywhere. in the movie or tv show window, second column from the left shows a check mark at the column top, and some shows/movies have a check and others do not. what does the check mark mean?

thats what I thought, but the check marks Im talking about are on the library pages. I check the items to sync on the Ipad interface. Are you saying the items not checked will not be available to sync in the Ipad interface? In other words, if I dont check it in the library interface, I cannot sync it in the ipad interface? Right now, nearly everything in my library has a check mark, but I'm certainly not syncing my whole library.

I just purchased a new 7th generation iPod. What do I do with my old, 3rd generation model?

Thank you, Jiri! Do I need to do anything to the old iPod before I recycle it, such as return it to factory settings or delete any music?

I have many photos that are visible as thumbnails in the Pictures Library, however when I try to open them in a big screen they show a back screen with an exclamation mark in a triangle. What does this exclamation mark mean ?

I can see my images in the libarary as thumbnails but when i try to edit/email some of them become Exclamation Marks in a triangle.
What does the exclamation mark mean and how to i retrieve the photo

The exclamation make is an indication that iPhoto has broken the file path to the original photo.
Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

What does the check mark do?

In the timeline, each video clip has a filename shown for both the video and audio track. Immediately to the right of the audio filename is a drop down menu that says "Volume Clip Volume" by default. If I look at the entries in the drop down menu, Volume and Balance, I get it that the audio track has those 2 audio effects assigned. By default, Clip Volume is checked.
What I don't understand is why the check marks are mutually exclusive. If I check Balance -> Balance, it unchecks Volume -> Clip Volume, implying I can't have both at the same time.
That's a roundabout way of asking what does the check mark in that drop down do?
Bruce.

Ah, I think that led me to the answer. The check mark changes the meaning of the yellow line, since it can only show one thing. If Balance is checked, the yellow line reflects the right/left balance. If Volume Clip is checked, then the yellow line reflects the clip setting. Cool.
Thanks!
Bruce.

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone?

I am trying to edit my music list and then sync it to my iPhone 5 so I don't run out of storage space. However, I see the check marks on the iTunes library but am unable to uncheck them? How do I manually edit what will be synced to my phone? (the check marks are not bolded, does this mean they are not in my library but only on my phone?)

You uncheck the music in your iTunes library on your computer and along with sync only checked songs and videos selected under the Summary selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, only checked songs in your iTunes library will be transferred to your iPhone or remain on your iPhone and the unchecked songs in your iTunes library that are currently on your iPhone will be removed when syncing.
Or make use of iTunes playlists and choose selected playlists, albums, artists under the Music selection for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the playlists below that you want transferred to your iPhone.

In options, checking a new tab instead of the default a new window. After shutdown & restart FireFox returns to the w/no check mark. Can I save the check mark?

After a computer restart, Firefox always defaults in Options, Tabs, 'Open new windows on a new Tab' unchecked. After checking the box Firefox will then open new windows in a tab instead of a new window, However after a shutdown of the computer the check mark is gone and must be rechecked. Is there a way for Firefox to remember the check mark when the program is restarted?

hello gearjam, first of all it appears, that you're using an outdated version of firefox with various known security vulnerabilities - please [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] as soon as possible to stay safe while you browse the web.
regarding the problem you're observing, please make sure that no extension in firefox > addons > extension with the functionality to change tab settings is interfering here - or if this is not the case, go through the steps described in [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

I have placed a check mark in the Block Pop-Up Windows box and when I restart Firefox, the box is empty and I begin receiving Pop-Up's again. What do I have to do to make the check-mark permanent?

I have an iphone 3gs, when I try to connect to my home wi-fi the phone goes thru the motions, finds the network but can't lock it in. The check mark next to the network flashes a few times then the phone goes serching again and the same thing happens.

I have an Iphone 3gs wi-fi problem. When I try to access my home wi-fi network the phone looks for the network, finds it, but cannot lock it in. The check mark flashes a few times then the phone tries again to connect. This only happens with my home wi-fi. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem. I have re-booted the phone and the router without any luck.

SOLUTION!
I've been suffering from this problem for a few months. I tried everything suggested by everyone, and then, today, I had a mad idea.
I used to work in a room in the house that's about 12 metres away from the router. It's on the next storey up and horizontally about 8 metres away. The problem started when I began to work in the same room as the router.
Today I became so frustrated that for some reason I walked into a room about 8 metres away on the same level - Guess what? I connected with no problem at all. Feeling full of joy I walked back to the room where the router is located - Dropped internet connection within a few minutes! Walked back to the the room that's 8 metres away and, hey presto! I have a connection. I now realise that the problem was that I moved too close to the router.
I can think of no logical explanation for my experience, but empirically it seems to work. Does anyone have the faintest idea of why this should be the case? In the absence of an answer I think I may have to start believing in fairies at the bottom of the garden - I'm just off to set a meal for them.
By the way, I don't know if it has any significance, but the router is a BT Infinity router that has replaced the incredibly unreliable Virgin Media cable connection

What does the "check mark" in iTunes beside the name of the song/artist signify?

In iTunes when "MUSIC" is selected, and the list of songs appears. Why are some songs checked and others not? What does the check mark signify or accomplish?

Tracks without a check mark are basically ignored by iTunes but left in the library. Some people use it for deactivating seasonal (e.g., Christmas) music when they don't want it to play but still want it in their collection. It also won't be synced.

- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

What do check marks mean in little box next to title?

Hi. Does anyone know the significance of the check mark? Appreciate any info -- I am stumped and have searched everywhere but have not found a "why?" query.

The check boxes have a number of uses:
Unchecked songs will be skipped when playing songs from the library or a selection. They will only play when individually clicked on.
Smart Playlists have an option that unchecked songs won't appear.
Unchecked songs will not be burned to CD.
The iPod has an option to only update checked songs

What are you supposed to cast it to? I might have tried to cast it to something wrong.
I tried
TableCellRenderer tcr = table.getDefaultRenderer(Boolean.class);
((DefaultTableCellRenderer)tcr).setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.LEFT);and that gave me a ClassCastException. But I might have been trying to cast it to the wrong thing.

I'm new to the ipod thing, what do the check marks mean?
