Inflated playcount after installing iPhone 3.0

At first I thought this was just a bug with last.fm, but now I am thinking that it's a syncing issue. While using last.fm, it would scrobble my total playcount of a song every time instead of just the times that I listened to the song that day. I uninstalled the last.fm scrobbling client, and now it is doing the same thing to my iPod. For example, if I have listened to a song 10 times, and once that day, if I reset the playcount for that song, I will now have 21 plays of that song. Is there any thing I can do to fix this?
I am using a 2nd gen iPod Touch wih iPhone 3.1.2 and iTunes 8.2.1.6 on Windows XP

I think that some of the latest firmwares are designed to work the best with the latest version of iTunes... Your playcounts could be having issues because the updated firmware is sending information in that it does not know how to handle.
While it could be application based, on apple products the software grouping technology doesn't make it so that one new app affects another.... It's kind of different technology than that of Windows, where 1 program can conflict where another... On Apple and MAC OS X software it groups apps so they are self contained packages... this is why you can delete an app that you downloaded from the store without worries of impacting another...
But if your new iPod is talking to in an updated communication method, which apple has developed for iTunes 9 then that could cause the problems... However I know that when this occurs apple specifically tells you to update the software first... But this may not happen since you have some supported hardware... And that's about the only advice I can offer you at the moment!

System problems after installing iphone & itunes

I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed a weird problem with their computers after installing the iphone & itunes.
Up untill i got the iphone, my computer was working fine. Now about every 15 - 30 mins, i get a few seconds of static sound from my speakers, and my monitor flashes in a way i can only describe as static on a tv screen.
i've been trying to figure out what the problem is, and thought it was just my copy of windows xp, then i noticed that every so often, my iphone will buzz either right before or right after the static hits my computer. I've also seen the same thing on another computer running windows vista, so at this point, i don't think it's the computer, and the issue never occured before installing the iphone.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot what is causing this, (or at the very least stop the static sound from the speakers so that it does not interfere with my music).
Any help would be appriciated, this is currently the biggest problem i have with the iphone.
thanks,
r.

Hi - yep, it's your phone causing the problem. But this isn't unique to iPhones, many (most?) cell phones will create this problem when placed near certain other electronic devices. I haven't been able to put my cell phone on my nightstand for years because it makes the radio/alarm clock buzz.
I don't happen to have problems with my iPhone near my computer screen or speakers, but it makes my alarm clocks and my cordless home telephones buzz like you described.
I believe the cell phone is essentially connecting to the mother ship to establish a signal! Like I said, this isn't unique to the iPhone. Just move it away from your screen/speakers and you'll have fixed your problem

Stuck Pixels after Installing iPhone 2.0.1 Update

Has anyone else noticed any new stuck pixels after installing the iPhone 2.0.1 update?
As you can see in the image linked to below, my 8GB iPhone 3G began displaying a stuck pixel in the upper-left immediately after installing the 2.0.1 update. At first, I figured that this was an average stuck pixel that coincidentally appeared immediately after applying the 2.0.1 update. However, after further examination, I don’t think that this is a normal stuck pixel.

A few hours later, my mother updated her 8GB 1st gen iPhone, and as you can see in the image linked to below, she now has a vertical line of stuck pixels in the same region as mine. Since her stuck pixels also appeared immediately after installing the 2.0.1 update, I’m beginning to think that my stuck pixel may not be an isolated issue.
http://skitch.com/macmanx/1i88/stuck-pixels
I have tried to restore both iPhones, adjust the brightness, apply light pressure to the stuck pixels, and run the Knox Pixel Fix for iPhone. Neither method worked. To further complicate the issue, the stuck pixels appear to flicker when viewed through the LCD screen of my digital camera.
Stuck pixels are (as the name implies) stuck, they do not flicker. This, added to the fact that the issue occurred immediately after applying the 2.0.1 update, leads me to believe that this may actually be a software issue, possibly involving a conflict between the display drivers in the update and the display hardware shipped with certain iPhones.
If you have also noticed new stuck pixels after installing the 2.0.1 update, I'd love to hear that I'm not the only one seeing this. And, if you have somehow managed to resolve the issue, I'd love to know how you did it.

As already pointed out, "stuck pixels" are hardware related. They will be evident all the time, regardless of the particular screen being viewed. If they show only on particular screens, it isn't a dead pixel, but a software/ driver issue. I see a horizontal line in my Unlock Screen that I didn't notice before 2.0.1, but I'm not sure I really looked for it before. However, I don't see it in other screens with a black background such as the Home Screen, indicating it has something to do with the Unlock Screen image, and not the LCD pixels.

Having syncing problems after installing iPhone OS 2.0 for the iPod Touch

Ok, after finally installing the software on my iPod Touch 2nd Gen, I tried to sync it, and it only syncs my pix and apps. It will not sync my music nor videos. It read " an unknown error has occured. (error 13019).
Has anyone else expericned this problem. It's starting to make me regret buying the upgrad software, specially since the iPhone and iTouch is basiclly the same thing. Donnt get me wrong it has the other features but I cant do the things that I orgianlly bought the Touch for.

Yes, I didnt unclick anything and and everything stayed the same since before the upgrade. I tried everything. And still nothing works!!!!

XCode freezes when opening project after installing iPhone SDK 3.2 beta

I have problem opening up existing XCode projects, and creating new XCode projects.
If I open an existing XCode project, no window appears and XCode becomes non-responsive.
If I create a new XCode project, it shows me the window to create new project, but after entering the project name, XCode becomes non-responsive.
I've played around with the settings and found out that if I go to
Preferences>Code Sense and untick the Indexing>'Enable for all projects'
The problem is solved. But with that turn, I no longer have auto-completion.
I have tried a few methods to solve this but none was working
1) I thought the problem was due to documentation. In Preferences>Documentation, I see "Mac OS X 10.6 Core Library" and "iPhone OS 3.2 Library" showing "Getting..." all the time. I compared the file sizes of the docsets to my laptop (no problem with XCode) and there's a big difference in file size. So I copied these files from my laptop to the Mac with problem. This does not solve the problem.
2) Clear cache .
3) Disable indexing. Quit XCode. Start XCode and enable indexing. Then quit XCode and start project.
4) Uninstall XCode completely with sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all , and then reinstall iphonesdk_3.0__snow_leopard_final. I verifed that I was able to open projects normally. Then I installed iphonesdk_3.1_with_xcode_3.2_final__snow_leopard_10a432, followed by
iphonesdk_3.2_beta_with_xcode3.2.2. Problem comes back
5) I tried to clear the files below but it does not help
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Xcode.plist
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Xcode
~/Library/Caches/xcodebuild
~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/
Anyone able to point me to a solution? Thanks

Hello honcheng & welcome to discussions.
I'd recommend doing a custom install during the iPhone OS 3.2 beta installation instead, and putting it into a separate location from the release tools...
I would also suggest participating in the beta forums as well.

Updated my iPhone 5 to ios7, in the App store after installing updates I now have a never ending list of the Apps I've updated. How do I get rid of the list after they've been updated? In the previous version I did not have an annoying permanent list.

Updated my iPhone 5 to ios7, in the App store after installing updates I now have a never ending list of the Apps I've updated. How do I get rid of the list after they've been updated? In the previous version I did not have an annoying permanent list.

iOS 7 allows you to have your apps update automatically. Therefore, the list of what has been updated stays so that you can see what was updated, when and what the release notes say. It has been suggested that they list has a limit, much like Recents. Currently, there is no way for the user to delete the entries manually. Just try not to look at them.

How can I retrieve my contacts and pictures after installing iOS6 on my iphone?

How can I retrieve my contacts and pictures after installing iOS6 on my iphone? Don't call me stupid! I was relying on iCloud to have backed all this up, but turns out it didn't work. Can anyone help me get my photos back - they were of my baby daughter. Also, I've lost all my contacts. Please help.

Unfortunately no. The only way the phone backs up is if you make it back up. You either connect to iTunes and backup and sync, or you set it up for a wifi sync to iCloud. But you have to setup iCloud to start with. You have learned a hard lesson on how to make sure you import pictures on a regular basis like you would the digital camera. When things happen to the phone, this is the media that is lost the most (pictures in camera roll). After taking a number of pictures, and especially ones you consider important, you should connect the phone to the computer and import them, so there is a backup copy on the computer.
Contacts are saved in the backup as well, however they are really designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer, or backed up to iCloud or other cloud service. And, the only way to go back in time on the phone is to restore from a backup, but you also have to remember, you would lose everything on the phone that you had done since that backup, so it is a double edged sword.

After installing the new software to my iPhone 4S , my dream zoo either will not start or when it does it has a blank screen that has a few icons on it that wont work. How can I fix this is it possible to go back and reinstall the older software ?

Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

Unable to sync iPhone 4 after installing iTunes 10.1 upgrade

I have a 'new' Dell computer running Windows 7.
Have synced my iPhone 4 to the computer numerous times.
Was prompted today to install the new upgrade to iTunes 10.1.
After installing that upgrade, I am no longer able to access my iPhone from iTunes. I get the message "device driver software was not successfully installed."
I have followed all of the help on the web site, and nothing helps. iTunes cannot access my wife's iPhone 3GS either.
Thanks for your help.

I'm having the same problem - MacBook Pro running 10.6.5. As soon as I updated itunes to 10.1 it stopped seeing my iPhone. I can see it there through System Profiler - so I know the hardware is working. But iTunes doesn't see it anymore.
HELP!

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

The problem is with version 10.4.1. I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work. The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me. Here was their list of steps:
Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
2. Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
     a. iTunes
     b. QuickTime
     c. Apple Software Update
     d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
     e. Bonjour
     f. Apple Appllcation Support
3. Reboot PC
4. Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes. To correct this:
5. Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
6. Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
7. Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
8. Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date. It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
9. Reboot PC
