IOS 8 update Music is all messed up now

Is anyone else having issues with the iOS 8 update screwing up their music? My daughter and I lost a bunch of album covers and when my daughter deleted her music and tried to put it back on her iPod touch, it won't put it back. You can't drag it or add it by clicking on the drop menu and we've tried everything we could think of. She even restarted the iPod. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • IOS 6 update: music doesn't shuffle, it repeats

    Hi there,
    Updated to IOS 6 a couple of weeks ago and now whenever I go to play music on my iPhone, it just repeats the same song over and over.  I can't shuffle or listen to songs in order on my iphone 4s.  Any thoughts on how to fix this?

    Talked with car dealer and he thought a special cradle was needed.  Told him the Blackberry I had last week worked flawlessly -- perplexed him... stopping by later this week to talk in person with the car geeks -- no resolution at this point

  • Media kind is all messed up now....

    I have a ton of music videos, all of which are in mpeg-4 format. The problem is they won't play on my car stereo or ipod because it isn't recognized as a video because the media kind says "music". I can 't switch it to anything like "pod cast video" or "movie" or "music video" because in the drop down menu for media kind my only options are "music", "podcast", "Itunes U", "audio book", or "voice memo". Any ideas on how to fix this?

    try if this script can help:
    _*Set Video Kind of Selected v3.1*_
    +This script will change the video kind property of the selected tracks to your choice of "Movie", "Music Video" or "TV Show". Additionally, "Show Name", "Season Number", and "Episode Number" can also be set or cleared for each selected track.

Protected files, such as those purchased from the iTunes Store, cannot be changed. Requires iTunes 7 or better.+

  • HT5934 After doing iOS 7 update on iPad 2 I'm now locked out by a passcode. PLEASE HELP

    I did the iOS 7 update on my special needs son's ipad2 which he uses daily, and now its locked the screen with a passcode! I've never had a passcode before so I have noises how to unlock the screen! I have tries generic codes like 0000 & 1234, and even other random numbers just in case, but to no avail (other than to disable the iPad from trying too many passwords!!)
    My son uses this every day for practicing his fine motor skills and many other therapies and I need to get this working again ASAP, please help!!
    I tried to do a backup, thinking worst case scenario I'll restore to factory settings and then sync it from my latest backup but it wouldn't let me do a backup.
    I notice there is now an iOS 7.0.2 update available, my hopes soared when I saw this this morning, thinking it would be a fix for this passcode lock since I've seen online that many people are having the same issue, but it says it fixes the ability for people to BYPASS this passcode lock!!
    I only WISH I could bypass the stupid thing!
    I can't  understand why it would put a passcode lock on a device without letting you know somehow what the passcode IS!
    Very very frustrated and worried that my son can't use his iPad
    PLEASE HELP?!

    Hi MaraAndKaid,
    This article has steps you can take when you're unable to remember your passcode to get things back on track:

  • IOS 5 update/music problem

    i just updated my iPhone 4 with iOS 5 and now only certain songs play from my music section of my phone. is this due to some setting or is it because of iOS 5?

    I looked into it and found out that iOS 5 is made so that it won't play songs that weren't purchased through iTunes...
    I'm not sre where you got your information, but my iPod Touch disagrees with it.  I have a number of CD's I've convertd to MP3's and loaded into iTunes.  While I have not listend to every track from every CD since I've upgraded my iPod Touch to iOS 5, every track I have played has played just fine.  Granted, I only have about 12GB of audio files I've ripped from CD's but they all still seem to play just fne for me...

  • IOS 6 update for iPhone 4S messed up my WiFi

    Ever since I updated to iOS 6 about a month or so ago, my WiFi doesn't connect when I'm at home.  If I am at work, it will automatically connect.  When I am home I have to manually make it connect, but then it keeps falling off. I have called Apple Support and gone to the Apple store.  So far this is what I have tried with no success:
    Reset network settings
    Restore my phone
    Update my router
    Call Apple
    Go to Apple store
    Updated to the new iOS 6.0.1 update wishing and praying that it would fix the WiFi bug, but it didn't?
    .... any suggestions? or anyone else having similar issues since the update?

    Thank you for responding,
    The router I am using is a Linksys, we also tried disconnecting that one and connecting the netgear router we have. The security method is WEP I believe, although I could be wrong.
    No one else is having issues with their WiFi, just me.  All the laptops are connecting wirelessly, the 2 tablets we have are connecting perfectly fine and all cell phones are connecting.

  • IOS 8 update on iphone 5 - messed up apps

    After installing 8.on my iPhone 5, some of my apps are really messed up.  In-app purchases have disappeared and attempts to restore purchases or even just buy them again are unsuccessful...this same app also now won't save to camera roll even though it appears to. Another app is buggy beyond belief,  I've contacted one of the developers and they've fixed their issues but the other developers haven't responded.  What's going on?  Should I delete and repurchase the buggy apps? Will there be fixes in the near future or are the affected apps going to remain inoperative?

    II'm sorry, I thought I'd updated to 8.02 but I checked and I only have 8.0.  I'm afraid to update to 8.02 as I've been reading both good and bad about it, like it may fix my app problem but screw up my Wi-fi.   I don't know what to do.   I'm between a rock and a hard place.  

  • After iOS 7 update, music won't play via headphone or USB

    iPhone 5, just upgraded to iOS 7
    When playing music, it always plays via the phone's built-in speakers.  I have tried it with multiple speakers and headphones via the 3.5mm jack and through USB connection in my car. 
    Any ideas?

    Rebooted the phone and now fixed

  • Firefox recently updated itself, and all bookmarks are now gone. how do I get them back.

    no content needed. As I stated previously, all bookmarks are gone after firefox did an auto update.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Itunes library rearranged itself...all messed up now!

    Very weird problem happened to me with itunes. Last night I wanted to move a playlist from my ipod to my itunes. I have a program called TuneAid that does such a thing. I moved over a playlist with a hundred or so songs into my itunes library. The move seemed to go OK but when I started to play songs in my itunes library, I encountered a very strange problem...there are now hundreds of songs that have the wrong information for them.
    The song information (title, artist, year, album, track number) is still in tact, but it is for the wrong song. For example, I clicked on a song by the Rolling Stones, but what played was a song by the Beatles. So I searched for the Beatles song that was playing and found it, but when I played that, a song by Billy Joel plays. I spent an hour or so renaming files but I think there are still a couple hundred left.
    What's strange is not all the songs in my library were messed up. I have about 2000 songs, but only a large handful were messed up. The second thing is that it wasn't just the songs in the playlist that I transferred from my ipod that got messed up. Some songs that were not on my ipod now have the wrong metadata.
    I tried to restore a previous itunes library, but that didn't work. All that did was put an exclamation point by the song where files could not be found. This helps me identify the songs with the wrong path but I do not know what that song is now labeled.
    Hope this description. Is there any hope for me or do I have to rename all these files? Is there anything I can do with the XML file or the .itl files.
    Thanks!

    Mind if I wait around and see if you get an answer, cibt?
    I can't fathom the iTs way of doing things - but not quite doing things. Are files Windows files of are they iTs? What job does the .itl file have? Is iTs just a series of pointers to (real) Windows files?
    Can files be moved around Windows folders and be recognised by iTs, or is iTs a file manager too?

  • Id3 tags are all messed up now

  • Played with files/folders when trying to add 2nd library all messed up now.

    I know there are many threads on this subject. First when I got my new laptop I transfered my library. It worked but the folder listings looked different/odd to me. Now husband decided he wanted a nano and I tried to add 2nd library to my laptop. I think I followed the directions but apparently did not. I also tried to move and drag some files/folders together because I have so many folders. There are multiple itunes, itunes music, ipod ?files/folders. I have the same problem as others ! shows up when I tried to play any songs. Find in other location. I found them but then what do I do? I barely know computer basics so any help needs to be very, very basic. How should I proceed? How should my folders look? Music-> iTunes->iPod-> Album Artwork->iTunes-> iTunes music etc. If I can't get itunes to work should I delete all music from computer and remove itunes and start over? Frankly I do not know why they don't have a video to follow to help computer stupid people like me. By the number of posts you would think hey make videos to cover these problems. My iPod 80GB is fine with everything present. I have been good about keeping back ups on disks. My music library contains only 140 music purchases and has a total of 900 songs, album artwork, and 25 photos. Any help would be great there is a lot of stress in the house about this subject. Thank you all for your time.
