IOS 6.1.2 music app making an Internet connection every time launched.
I noticed that each time I open the Music app it makes a connection. I used system status to track down who owned the IP used and it's Apple. I assume it is checking for iTunes Match, but I don't have iTunes Match and it is disabled. So I logged out of iTunes & App Store single sign-on in Settings and the connection attempts stopped. But this stinks because I don't want to have to sign in and out each time so my battery isn't used by random connection. Apple's built in apps all immediately sync each time I open them, which is why I have switched to other apps that don't to save battery.
Is anyone else having this happen? Any possible solutions?
Why is this a problem?

IOS 5.1.1 Music app aborts after two characters entered in search field if Home Sharing in use.
The iOS 5.1.1 Music app search function works fine on my iPad 2 as long as the library being searched is resident on the iPad.
When Home Sharing from my iMac’s iTunes library is used, however, the Music app aborts without explanation after two characters are entered in the search field.
The behavior is always as expected after the first character is entered, but an abort always occurs after the second.
I have tried restarting iTunes on my iMac, and I have done a hard reset on my iPad, but the behavior remains the same.
This is not a minor problem from the user’s perspective, because unless the iTunes library being accessed is very small, it is very hard to find music from the information shown by the Music app on the iPad screen; it would be even worse for an iPhone or iPod touch. Without the search function working on iOS Music app, Home Sharing is of very limited use for me.
In case it is relevant, here is fuller information about the environment:
iMac 27" 2.93 GHz i7 12 GB RAM (Approx. 10 GB free or inactive at time of problem)
OS X 10.7.4
iTunes 10.6.3
iPad 2G 16 GB Wi-Fi only
iOS 5.1.1
Airport Extreme 5G v 7.6.1
Airport Express 802.11n v. 7.6.1 extending network
Has anyone else experienced a problem like this?
Does anyone have any suggestions?
ThanksSpoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department. Her suggestions: change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers. So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue. It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more. Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department. Make them aware of this problem! -
IPhone 5 iOS 7.0.2 Music app - volume slider slides to maximum when skipping tracks.
Hi all,
Wonder whether any other customers getting this?
iPhone 5 UK iOS 7.0.2 music app - when skipping tracks (or even selecting tracks) volume slider slides to maximum volume by itself intermittently. I have noticed with EU Volume Limit 'ON' in music settings or Volume limiting 'on' this behaviour occurs. I've turned off volume limiting and now it appears to work normally.
I did restore as new iPhone via iTunes at iOS 7.0 and had this behaviour followed by update to iOS 7.0.2 via iTunes and same problem.
I can't decide if this is a hardware or software problem?
Thanks all!Yep - deleting anything that's not purchased on itunes when I try to play it.
This is terrible, and especially a pain when they're things like limited edition albums where tracks are only available direct, so going for iTunes match is not gonna help.
Only other variable to consider is that I installed the "Groove" app to try out a few weeks ago, and played music with it twice. Highly doubt this is related, however non-iTunes purchased tmusic tracks also show up there and now *crash the phone* when I try to play them so it's something system-wide. -
IOS 5 and broken Music app (iPod touch 3rd Gen)
hi,
since the latest iOS 5 release, my music app has been behaving in a weird way. It's as if the app forgets whether it's in portrait or landscape mode (but that's oversimplifying the problem I think).
I took step-by-step screenshots of what happens when I open the music app: (keep in mind that even if the picure is shown as landscape, I was holding my iPod in the portrait mode (I realised I should've locked it into portrait, but forgot. Either way, the problem is still the same!)
Opening the app:
http://d.pr/i/jn2X
first problem, shows as if a video is loading (it is not!)
http://d.pr/i/FcJl
and there it is, after the app "loads" the screen, it looks like the UI is messed up
http://d.pr/i/syV4
http://d.pr/i/jTcU
http://d.pr/i/7pp1
Usually switching between screens on the bottom of the screen (playlists, artistis, genres etc.) will fix the UI problem.Yes, it will work. Do a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

HT201412 My music app on my iPad closes when I launch it. How can I restore the app?
I changed a setting "sort by artist" and now the app won't launch. How do I restore it?
Close the Music app in the Task Bar and re-launch.
Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar. Hold Music app down for a second or two; tap the minus sign to close app.
If it still doesn't work, try a reset.
Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider. -
I am not able to access the "Settings" on my iPad 3. I just get a gray screen for about 30 seconds and then the app shuts down. I am also unable to access the App store, iTunes, or any app requiring an internet connection. Any thoughts?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. 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." -

I accientally synced my iPhone to 2 different computers. Now my older apps are on one computer and new apps are on another. Every time I try to sync all apps on one computer it takes the other apps of and just syncs what is on that computer - Help please
I cannot for the life of me figure this out.What you need to do is connect your phone to iTunes but do not click sync. Go to File at the top and click transfer purchases from phone, that'll put all your apps into iTunes. When it's done transferring, locate your phone on the sidebar and click it. Then find the apps option above the picture of your iphone, you can select which apps you want or don't want on your phone. After selecting your apps then you can sync. Once you do this you should never have your problem anymore.

N8 music player has to refresh library every time ...
N8 music player has to refresh library every time after switching on the phone. why?
How do you try to start the repair dialogue? By starting Aperture or by opening the Library?
If you not already have tried it with directly opening the library:
reveal your Aperture Library in the Finder
Whilst holding down Command(⌘)- option (⌥) double click on the Aperture Library.
Select "repair library" from the dialogue.
What about Frank Caggiano's questions above?
It would be really helpful to know, how many libraries you have, and if this problem is restricted to one of them. -

Take it somewhere that has better broadband. The best you can do sometimes is invest in new modem that works with your system instead of the rental etc in most cases.
Do a Safe Boot.
Make sure your firewall is set properly. Don't use 3rd party. AV software can get in the way.
Make sure you are getting the service and a clean strong modem signal - slow is one thing but if it drops off and can't maintain a connection you have hardware issues, not software - and upgrade to a new OS doesn't tend to improve, it may even not work with older networking equipment once you do get it.
I agree and think electronic only goes too far. And when you do get it: burn the package and manually set it aside first before running the intaller! make a flash memory installer, put it on DVDs too. -

Windows APP without real internet connection stops working in time
Windows APP without real internet connection stops working in time
Hello all,
I am trying to get the following to work. We have an intranet page which users need to connect to, to operate some machines. This is done through an windows 8.1 Tablet with an assigned KIOSK mode app (Kios SP Browser).
This works great as the assigned app is the only thing the user can run and we don't have to really harden the device. One drawback in using the assigned apps is that it needs to be an New App (as Microsoft call it)
The app is installed on an reference machine which runs in workgroup mode (no domain connection is needed on the devices) and after the reference machine is installed it is imaged with the use of Acronis. After deployment the tablet has no connection to
internet and the intranet page is wireless put available to the tablets. As a side note, the tablet operates with local accounts and the app is installed using an corporate hotmail account we created just for this purpose.
I now deployed the image over 20 different tablet devices and this worked great until recently a few devices start to complain it needs to connect to the windows shop before the app can be started. As the devices don't have internet access this can't be
done and the tablet is rendered useless for the user.
How can i make the app available without internet connection ? and how can i be sure the app will continue to work over time without connection to the store ?Thanks for the reply.
I can't unblock the internet connection as the wireless network doesn't have any internet connection what so ever. The main purpose is to be able to operate the machinery and nothing else, hence the kios app which is being used to show the intranet page
which connects than to the devices.
The problem is that after imaging the app works as expected but after a few days the app stops to work ...
I found the following website over site loading an app without the needed appx files. It shows an way to capture the files during installation from the windows store.
https://www.404techsupport.com/2014/06/installing-free-windows-8-modern-apps-without-the-windows-store/
It is a bit strange to have it this difficult to install apps without the needed store and i think that Microsoft should make this easier. I hope this works better and after a few days i will give the feedback how this handles..
If anyone knows of a better way ..... -
Why does a delated app keep trying to download every time I sync
I have deleted an app from my iPhone and it does not appear in my app. list any more, everytime I re sync using itunes it appears on my iPhone to be trying to download again. This appears to be messing up my synchronisation because the sync bar just keeps going until I delete the app from the iPhone screen every time. The particular app is a website app and I have deleted the website from everywhere on my computer in an attempt to stop this happening but it still keeps reappearing, any ideas please?
Hello,
You can delete them in your Downloads list but not permanently.
All you can do is contact iTunes Store Support :

(choose iTunes Store > Connecting and Downloading)
