least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync

However, sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility you have to wiat for an iOS update or an update to the firmware for your dock

Discs burned from iTunes 10.1 will not play on some Sony CD players

I'm having a problem with 32 bit iTunes 10.1 (on Windows XP sp3) where burned discs will not play on my Sony CDP355 or CDP400 carousel CD players but will play on a Sony CDP455. Discs burned with earlier versions of iTunes used to work fine with these players (I think). Also, these "incompatible" players did not recognize the disc as one containing CD text. In fact, they would not read the disc at all.
My friend running 64 bit iTunes 10.1 on a Windows 7 machine doesn't have this problem with discs she burns. They will play OK on those exact same players.
Burned files seem to play OK on most of my other CD players and I have confirmed the files are CDA format files (not MP3).
I had selected MAXIMUM SPEED, AUDIO and INCLUDE CD TEXT in my burn settings.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for this suggestion. I reduced the burn speed to 12X (my burner is 48X maximum) and made another copy. It works just fine. I'll experiment with higher speeds later but for certain the 12X speed solved the problem.

Ipod Video 30GB will not play when it is being charged...

My new ipod will not play when it is being charged..., it keeps saying "Do not disconnect". Is it normal. If so this ***** !!! Or is there a setting I have overlooked !?
Gosh, I am a techie and I am having so many problems with this crap & iTunes. Why the fcuk can it not just copy Directory structure (which has music files, photos, etc.) as is and not have to create freakin Playlist.
Finally I found EphPod, but that thing will not do vidoes and photos.

But the iPod says "Do not disconnect" with the charging symbol !
Have you Restored the iPod?
if I eject ipod manually from the cradle or by ejecting it using iTunes. But then it stops charging.
Your USB ports shut off when the iPod is Ejected.
Here’s how to fix that.
1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
2. Double-click the System icon.
3. Click the Hardware tab.
4. Click Device Manager.
5. Scroll down the list of devices to the Universal Serial Bus controllers
6. Click the plus icon next to the Universal Serial Bus controllers.
7. Double-click one of the indented USB Root Hub entries.
8. Click the Power Management tab.
9. Deselect the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option.
10. Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.
11. Restart the computer.
Also, about the playlist, if you do not create them, how will you sort or find from 1000's of music files
You can use playlists but you don’t have to.
On the iPod they are already sorted by;
Artist
Albums
Songs
Genre
Composers
EPHPod automatically creates a Playlist using the Directory name. Why can't iTunes do the same.
It doesn’t need to. See above.
You can create playlists as you want to.

My ipod is not playing on a Sony docking station and it is supposed to be compatible with it?

My ipod touch is not playing on a Sony docking station....what do I need to do??

- Is the iPod fully seated in the dock?
- Does Sony say it works with you model iPod touch and iOS 6.0.1? Sometimes an iOS update will break compatibility.
- Does it charge?
- Have you reset the dock?
You can try the following. Sometimes it works.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

My 30-pin dock is connected to my lightning to 30-pin connector which is connected to my iPod touch 5g. But my iPod will only charge, and will not play music through my dock.

My 30-pin dock is connected to my lightning to 30-pin connector which is connected to my iPod touch 5g. But my iPod will only charge, and will not play music through my dock, only through the iPod's internal speaker. Help please!

Have you tried resetting both the iPod and dock? To reset the iPod, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
To reset the dock, unplug it and plug it back in.

HT3798 ipod classic will not play when plugged in

my ipod classic will suddenly not play when plugged in. it is fully charged. the message I get: contact www.apple.com/support/ipod
I am unable to resolve my issue when going there and browsing the articles. above the message is red circle with an "X" in the middle of it.
HELP!!!

Which model is this iPod. The "original" iPod was 5GB or 10GB, so this must be a 3rd gen iPod, at the earliest. This document shows all the iPod models.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1353
If it's a 3rd gen iPod, it has a dock connector, but it needs to be connected to a FireWire port to charge. It does not charge from a USB port.

TS3212 Itunes song will not play when burned to a CD

When I burn a CD using a Itunes song it will not play. The Apple store said there is a program update for Itunes to fix this. Does anybody know about the program update?
Thanks

You need to go back to 7.4.2. I had the same problem and went to 7.4.3 and it still didn't work. Your problems should be resolved if you roll it back one prior. Here is the link:

I burned an edited movie to disc using H.264 codec and a second movie to MPEG -4 Video both worked well on my iMac but will not play on my Sony DVD Recorder/Player which accepts both DVD RW and DVD-RW. Any suggestions?

I burned an edited movie to disc using H.264 codec and a second movie using MPEG-4 Video. Both played well on my iMac but would not play on my Sony DVD Recorder/Player which accepts both DVD+RW and DVD-RW discs. I have tried other 'codecs' DV-PAL; DVCPRO-PAL; DVCPRO50-PAL; AIC; and finally share to iDVD. iDVD works on both my iMac and DVD Recorder but the picture is very poor with major shimmering which is unwatchable. Can anyone assist? The other codecs I used either do not pay on my video recorder or fail when I play them back on my iMac. I am at a loss as to what I can do. I am from the UK so using PAL is essential.

If the source video is interlaced, you may have problems using iMovie. It de-interlaces everything on output which can cause picture to look strange. Final Cut Pro X supports interlaced video, but it costs a lot more.
Standard DVD Players don't support H.264 or MPEG4. You might want to look at this article on transferring HD video to DVD. I wrote this article mainly for Final Cut Pro, but many of the same principles apply.

My iphone 4 s will not work in my sony docking station

I just updated my phone on itunes and now it will not play on my docking station or when I try to connect to my aux cable in my vehicle

Hmmm, ok then, while this may well be a more extreme thing to do it might well be worth a try and that's to create a new user account on your computer, log into that and try a Restore of your iPhone from iTune in there. As it's a totally new user account and problems that may be coming from iTunes, the firmware download or really, anything from anywhere will be completely avoided. The Restore will be as "clean" as you're pretty much going to get it.
As with all Restores, doing this will delete anything on your iPhone so be sure to have a backup if there's anything important on it that's not available elsewhere.
If th problems go away then you know what to be pointing your finger at and you have options. If it doesn't then you can simply Restore the phone to a backup and contune on where you left off.

Videos will not play when Adobe Flash is installed

I have always used Adobe Flash, and never had a problem with it. When I installed the lastest release several months ago, I discovered that videos would not play at all. It's not just You Tube either; it's whatever site I visit. Six months of dealing with that was too much, so I uninstalled it, went online to look for an alternative, and guess what? The videos play just fine at MOST sites. Others say that I need to install Flash Player.
This is confusing, especially since I have no idea as to why this is happening. At the moment I do not have Flash installed, but I do need to resolve this. Any help would be appreciated, as far as ideas, recommendations etc. Thank you.

YouTube is almost finished with the transition to HTML5 (MP4). The reason thay've done this is to be accessible to phone and tablet viewers who can't use Flash. Javascript in their pages determines if a browser has Flash Player, and if it doesn't, the page will display video in HTML5. THAT's why you see what you do there. NOT ALL websites have done this though. Yahoo is working on it, as are Hulu, Dailymotion and others. NetFlix has switched to SilverLight for playback which causes its own problems if you don't have THAT installed.
Add to this mix, Microsoft released (without any "real world" testing) IE 11 almost two months ago (October 18) and it's been a nightmare to say the least. Pages/Sites don't recognize it because they screwed up some code in it, and... if a page or site can't recognize the browser, it certainly won't recognize any plug-ins it uses. Not a problem for HTML5 video which doesn't require the Player, but Facebook games, Pogo, and many other Flash sites DO require a browser and plug-in that the code recognizes.
Is IE11 your browser by chance?

I started setting up a web page with iWeb. Auto play box is checked, but music will not play when page is opened.

I started setting up a web page with IWeb.
Several proplems so far:
1) Auto Play box checked for music, but music does not start when page is opened.
2) Can't get Quicktime "start/stop" slide to start and finish a section within a long piece of music (classical for example). How does one work the slide bar to do this?

Yes the audio file plays on the iWeb page when I click the play button. I even made sure it played both without the “little boxes” that surround the icon (don’t know the technical name for those), and when I click the music icon without the little boxes.
I did note that the iTunes window that appears when I open the Inspector is not highlighted until I click the music icon and those little boxes appear. Then the Start/Stop, Auto Play, Loop, and Show Movie Controller are highlighted — and work properly.
One other thing. I see that the iWeb icon I am working from says “Domain copy.sites2.” Does that have a bearing on anything?

My Netflix will not play when my Apple TV is connected to my Sprint Hotspot.

I can watch videos on my Netflix account from my laptop connected to the exact same Hotspot. I can access my Netflix and search for videos, yet when I attempt to play I get (139:NFErr_MC_AuthFailure). I have reset and restored every single device/app involved. I have checked that no parental controls are on. I have called Netflix and Sprint both with no resolution. I live on an island and do not have access to another form of internet (hence the Hotspot). I used to have AT&T and never had this issue. Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue. I live on a farm and the only internet fast enough is from my phone. I've connect the hotspot, but I get that same error when I try and play something. What does work, however, is if I pull up the netflix app on my phone (a different phone from the one I am using as a hotspot), play it from there, and airplay it on the apple TV. It's a big pain and it effectively slows my connection because I'm streaming it through the hotspot onto my phone and then pushing that back through the network onto the Apple TV. Any way to play it directly from Apple TV??
