Is this a bug in ipod software or am i doing something wrong?
I got my ipod video a few weeks ago and was excited to be able to carry all 7000+ songs around in one place.. but then i ran into this problem and i'm not sure if it's a bug or if i'm doing something wrong.
let's say i have exactly one album by an artist.. and i also happen to have some singles from the artist, with no album set... (i prefer not to have albums set for songs i don't have the entire album for, to keep from having to sort through a truckload of albums i don't completely have).
when i browse by artist, and i select the artist, only the songs in the album shows up, all the non-album labeled songs are not visible! the same thing happens when i choose by genre..
in fact the only way to find those songs not bound to an album is to select them from the song list.. and having to scroll through 7000+ songs to find one really bites..
curiously enough, if there is two or more albums, then i can find the songs without albums.. definately sounds like a bug to me.. the software for the ipod video is only at v1.0, maybe they'll fix this (hopefully other ipods don't have this problem, i have no way of knowing though).
one work around i have tried is to set an empty album for the artist's song that has none, but i mean i don't want to do that for all my non-albumed songs because i'm interested in preserving the timestamp of songs (to know when i got them) and i can't reasonably search for songs that have exactly one album to just set those..
when i go to Music > Artist > All, as you suggested, i see all the albums i have listed. doesn't really relate to my problem with artists with songs in one album, as well as song w/o album set, and the latter not showing up.
but that reminds me, why is it when i go to the All section from a particular artist and they do have more than one album (or even no albums), the order of the songs is in the order they are in the albums.. if i wanted the order it is on albums, i would have selected that album for example.. it would be nice if the songs were in alphabetical order when you're NOT browsing by album, making a particular song easier to find (what if you have thirteen albums for example and u aren't sure which album a song is on, now you have to scroll through a seemingly random ordered list to find one song, alphabetical would be SOOOO helpful!)

I have a Windows 8.1 and it's even running slow. I'm a complete novice with computers (I've only had this one for 3 weeks) and I'm probably doing something wrong, but I haven't a clue what.
The tools are not responding when I try to use them. Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all. I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately. I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!
Any help anyone can give me will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Bug in shuffle? or am I doing something wrong?
Hi,
I have a number of 1-minute clips that each have a 3 second text name on them in track v2. I've decided I want to re-order some of the clips, and I'm having more trouble with it than expected.
First I tried to attach the name to the audio and video clips using
Modify->Link, but that does not seem to work for linking two video clips in the timeline together. (I also tried attaching the text to one of the audio tracks, but all that did was unlink the "real" video that went with the audio.)
I decided it's not that hard to just select both video tracks for each move, I'll just shuffle them together. I can't get shuffle to work properly! It worked (sortof) once. I selected both video and audio tracks, dragged them to the new location, hit "Option", watched the pointer change, and released the mouse. The selection moved, but instead of rippling the change down, it left a gap. It did not overwrite the other item in the track as though I had not hit option.
I can work around that I'll just be left with a gap as I move segments forward to where the correct sequence is.
Now comes the problem: I can't even repeat that! It seems no matter what I do, I can't shuffle segments in the timeline, they will overwrite. I've tried moving just the V1 segment, with the intent of moving the text later, no luck; it overwrites! I make sure that the arrow changes when I press the option key, and it does, although sometimes it changes to the right arrow instead of the little bendy one. Either way it overwrites instead of inserting. I've tried cmd-x cmd-v to cut and paste, but again it overwrites.
Is this a bug I've triggered? or am I doing something wrong? I've read through page 200-201, volume 2 of the manual fairly carefully and I think I'm doing it right.
I am using FCP 5.0.4.
Thanks,
--Beth
PS. Even if it did work correctly, I think I'd prefer to shuffle automatically, and overwrite by pressing the option key. Is there any way to set that in a preference?It always works for me. You cannot shuffle multiple clips. Well, if you do, it will leave a gap. Why? dunno.
I believe if your video and audio are not linked (cmd-L and you can only link audio and video, not multiple video clips) they will be considered multiple clips.
The "bendy" arrow is the one you want and it varies based on where in the track your pointer is. Lower - insert, upper (I think) leaves a gap. Also, I always press the option key after I've started moving, but before it settles, but I don't think that should affect your operation as long as you push option after you've started moving, but before you let go.
As to changing the option behavior, I don't think there's a way...

I got a new ipod touch for Christmas.
Today I was going to put music on it, i was told there was updates.
So I went ahead to do them.
My Ipod is stuck on the screen with the usb cord pointing to the itunes logo.
In Itunes i'm told :
Itunes has dected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes.
Turning the ipod off - the same screen appears when it's back on.
When I click restore ipod and after restore and update is clicked ; Extracting software loads up at the top.
When its done this is the message I get:
The iPod 'iPod' cannot be restored at this time because the ipod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable.
I've been looking up trying to figure it out myself and have read making sure a setting in Lan Settings in Internet Properties has ; Automatically detect settings checked. I still get the same ipod message.
I've tried holding the power and home key to turn it off, then powering it back on. But that doesn't work.
I installed itunes today, so its up to date - I checked.
I don't know what else to do.
Can someone help me out, please? :}
The operating system was ios 5 something? It wanted to update to 6 i believe.I've tried the top part but now that i've looked to the bottom:
Additional Information
The “hosts” file may also be blocking gs.apple.com.
Select the hosts file (normally you can find your hosts file at C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC).
I put this in the url bar?
When it gives me the list of names, im not sure what to do from there. The steps aren't that clear for me. -
this morning i tried to restore my ipod and it said:"the ipod "ipod cannot be restored at this time because the ipod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavalible." i have no idea what to do and i need help.
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -

It sounds like you actually have a 1G iPod Touch, which can only be updated to iOS 3.1. See this article for purchasing the update.

Ive just signed up for the adobe photoshop pack, i use a mac, when i click download, nothing is happening.. Am I doing something wrong?? When I try and open the software I already had from trial it says its expired, or i need to use a serial number... HELP Anyone else experienced this?
If there is an option to "license this software", and it takes you to a sign-in page with username and password (not a serial number) - then just go ahead and sign in.
If it insists on a serial number you need to uninstall the trial. Then try to download again. -

IndentAndSpacingFormat - Bug in API or am I doing something wrong?
I have a FieldObject in my report with double line spacing (LineSpacing=2) and then try following code to see its spacing format:
double lineSpacing = myFieldObject.FieldFormat.StringFormat.IndentAndSpacingFormat.LineSpacing;
Unfortunately this returns 1 instead of 2! It always returns 1, no matter which field object I try it for. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance...Hi John,
I've duplicated the issue. It seems to be a problem only when the field type is defined as Memo in CR Designer. If the field is a String type then it returns the correct value.
I'll have to escalate this to R&D to fix. It will take 2 or more months depending on their load or more.
Verified indents do not return the correct value also. Likely related to the field type.
Thank you
Don

I wonder if im doing something wrong. The phone is plugged into the power outlet and occasionally I check to see if it progresses. I am doing it manually thru the icloud section.
>When you use the includeIn command, by default the object will only be created when it is needed. Hence, you will execute a creationComplete

>state has been created the creationComplete handler (invalidateDisplayList) will not usually be called again.
So are you saying there is a better way or another way to do that? Or are you just telling me that's how it works? Because I know that the includeIn isn't creating the other buttons untill they are needed. I need them created when the button is created. That is my question, how do I get the other states to be created when the button is created so that I don't see the button flash black?
