Ipod having difficulty playing tracks
After recently sending my ipod in for a service becuase of the folder icon appearing i was pleased to recieve a "new" ipod. My new ipod is already giving me problems.
A vast amount of tracks are stopping half way through or after a few seconds and skipping onto the next track. Has anyone had similiar problems? Should i send in my ipod for a service before the waranty runs out?
Same exact thing happens to my IPOD. Skips to next song after a few seconds. Not all the time, just sometimes. But when it starts that behavior it goes on for awhile. Many times also it will show as playing but no sound. I'd say about 20% of the time I have trouble, all in the last week. I have updated.

IPod refusing to play track...
So I've just bought the remastered "My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts" CD by Brian Eno and David Byrne. I imported it into iTunes without problem and the album plays fine.
However, once downloaded onto my iPod, it refuses to play the first track, "America Is Waiting". It plays the first 2 seconds and then skips to the next track.
I've tried reseting my iPod (several times). I've tried deleting it all and re-importing. I've tried completely restoring my iPod and reimporting everything, but nothing has made any difference.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,

iPod with Colour Display 60GB
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)Hi,
Thanks for that. Tried it. But no joy.
It's got to be something to do with this track and my iPod. It plays okay in iTunes. And it even plays okay off my iPod via iTunes. But no luck when the iPod is on its own.
I've tried tricking it, by setting the start time of the track to three seconds in ( or more). But when played on my iPod, it goes straight to the three second mark - does nothing, then goes back to 0:00, plays two seconds worth and then skips to the next track. It's getting really annoying.
One other thing to mention, is that if I pause the track at 0:00, then skip to some point in the title beyond 0:03, the rest of it plays fine.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Ipod won't play tracks but itunes will
I have bought some singles from itunes (mp4) and since I have ripped the album from CD. The problem is that the tracks (mp3) that I have bought from itunes will not play and the album freezes when it gets to this track. If I play the original single (mp4) this will play.
If I try and play the mp3 ripped track on itunes it plays perfectly.
Any ideas?*

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.

Having difficulty playing videos embedded in PDF
Hi everyone,
I'm working on a project for work where I'm attempting to embed video in iPad-friendly PDFs. I have no problem embedding them and they run fine in Acrobat on the PC, but outside of that nothing else works. I read the explanation on attaching the video files to the PDF, but even that didn't work. Is this even possible, or is there possibly a different program that can make it work? I'd appreciate any help you guys can offer!
ThanksHi wag5,
Thank you for posting on the forums, Acrobat would embed the video in the document but uses the relevant application to run it.
However, what is the actual behaviour, Please use the latest version of the Reader and then test the same.
Thanks,

About a month ago I added some new audio books to my iPod Classic and then after disconnecting, I discovered EVERYTHING had been erased.
I had to restore through my iTunes but then I could not load my music back on.
I uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes and completely reformated the iPod drive.
I successfully got my music and books back on but then added a new book two days ago only to discover everything got erased AGAIN!!!
Of course, my 1 Year Warranty was up about a week before the first incident.....
I formatted the iPod again, uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes (it was freezing during sync) and downloaded all my music and books again.
Now I have several books that will not play (they play on iTunes and they played on the iPod before all these events) and the iPod does not keep track of where I was in a book when I have to stop and go to something else.
Does anyone know what is going on with this thing??? I have a 5th Gen Video and in all the years I've had it, I've NEVER had problems like this!
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get my iPod Classic up and running properly again?
Thanks.When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day! -
The songs on my Ipod Classic wont play at all although you can feel and hear the machinery working hard. The tracks are not playng at all but you can see the Ipod rewinding them all and returning to the album. And this happens to the second IPOD I just got!
First off, I would STRONGLY suggest that a external hard drive would make you life much easier by at least being able to back up your songs on the external drive for when you need them. Even if you don't want them in the iTunes library, you can have them all ready on the external to be re-added as needed. You can get 100's of gigs for under $100 shipped.
Anyway, since you used Yamipod, are all the songs back on the computer? If so, I would go ahead and restore the iPod, let iTunes then resync everything back to the iPod, then switch it back to manual and see if the restore and resync clears up the issue.

My itunes allows me to dcownload songs but is having difficulty identifying my new ipod nano and so can't set up song lists. It is not allowing me to access Netflicks anymore. Any ideas.
I have sorted it myself!!
Ipod is now in the top right corner, last time I clicked on it, it ejected it but by clicking on the actual ipod icon then it brings up your ipod. I restored it to factory settings and synced all my music and it now works again. Hope this can help anyone who ends up with the same problem. -
Ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song
ipod will not display track and artist name when i play a song... i cant see the the volume display to adjust it eiether. Everyting shows up in the menus just not on the now playing screen.... any suggestions?
Try restoring your iPod. Just be aware that restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

Can I play tracks from my iPod via Airport Express on only from my laptop?
I can play tracks from my laptop thorugh my Bose Lifestyle Airport Express. Is there a way to play tracks from my iPod Touch through my Bose system via Airport Express? My Airport Express is set up as a client to my Sky Broadband wireless router.
I set up my laptop to my Bose Lifestyle System via Airport Express. It may be different for MAC but I just downloaded the Airport Express software and followed the on-screen set-up procedure, which includes entering your WI-FI key. I do not have an iPad. You need to select Airport Express in iTunes as your sound media. This is easily switched by an icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. You will need to switch this back if you want to revert to using the laptop speakers.

I have purchased a new iPad2 and I was wondering if there is a way to get iPod content onto this new device. I am having difficulty finding any information on this kind of transfer and I am not sure if it is even possible. Just not looking forward to loosing my progress in games and information in notes and other apps. Thanks
Have you been syncing the iPod with iTunes? Then you just connect the iPad and set it up through iTunes and sync any content you want onto it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
In terms of games/apps. If they are not universal (you will see a + symbol next to them) or made for iPad (you would see an HD in the name, usually) then they won't look good on an iPad as those apps will open in a iPod sized window, giving you the option to enlarge. -
HI! I have a new macbook air but having difficulty connecting to a router if I am about 10 meters away. My iMac, iPad, iPhones and iPods can connect easily. Is there something that I need to configure? I have no issues if I am close to it. Thank you!
Hello, If you are dealing with one of the really thin iMac's that have no superdrive, then the superdrive icon should not appear on the desktop when you plug it in, but when you put in a disk (CD, DVD, etc.) that should appear. If you go into disk utility, and look at superdrive, that should be clickable and not grayed out when you have it plugged in. If this does not show up in disk utility, go to Apple, and ask to speak to their supervisor, speaking to a customer service agent is like talking to a potato, nothing gets done. Good Luck!

Ipod shuffle won't play tracks in order
My ipod shuffle won't play tracks in order even when I have the shuffle button off. I have sync'd it on itunes to play in order but it just continues to shuffle all the tracks! Please help. Thanks
I found a post about this problem from November, it is apparently how the iPod Shuffle handles podcasts. It sorts them in REVERSE chronological order, and moves them to the top of the play list. It's unbelievable that Apple has let a problem like this persist for so long.
Here is the discussion I mentioned:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6259808�
It offers a way to partially fix the problem, but one that I find entirely unacceptable. The only lasting solution mentioned was to buy a different mp3 player, which I'll be doing as soon as I return my Shuffle and get my money back.
The sad thing is that in addition to Apple losing money on the sale of a Shuffle, they're also loosing money on songs I would be purchasing from iTunes (I got a $20 gift certificate for my b-day that I'm going to sell to buy other music that will play on a non-Apple mp3 player), and they might loose potential customers because I've been complaining about this to everybody I know!
-edit-
Correction, I found a discussion dealing with this from 2005!

Can I find out the peak of Output 1-2 without having to play whole track?
Can I find out the peak of Output 1-2 without having to play whole track? I am preparing my album for mastering and I was told to have each track peak at no more than -2dB. Is there an offline peak detector or maybe another trick people use?
You should deliver your mixes to the mastering house in 24bit format. They should be converted to 16bit and dithered AFTER the mastering. Also, as long as the mixes are not overloaded, the levels could be handled in mastering also. That's what mastering is about, matching the perceived levels between the tracks. As far as your last question, "Do you just slap a multipressor on the output at that point and call it mastered?" the answer is heck no. I'd suggest selecting some professionally mastered cds in your genre, and put a few into your "mastering song" in logic and use them to compare to your mixes. Play with the mastering tools (multi compressor, EQ, adlimiter, etc) on your tracks and try to bring them into the ballpark with the reference songs. It will take a while to get a handle on it, but with practice, it will get you there.
