It takes longer to open my music and videos

I want to listen my music or watch my viedos on my ipod touch but it takes a long time to open music and video???
why??
and how can i solve it????

Hello Mariana,
Have you tried a hard reset to see if that makes a difference? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If the issue still persists, there may be a few corrupt files somewhere. So try restoring your iPod from a previous backup via iTunes.
And from there restore it to factory defaults if necessary. There corrupt files may be in the backup as well.

IPhoto takes long time to import Photos and Videos

From a software standpoint why iPhoto sometimes takes so long to import Pictures and Videos?
Example Scenario:
on the iPhone 5 - iOS 7 there are:
2851 Photos in Camera Roll
1000 Photos in Photo Stream
51 Videos (each videos average of 3 minutes long)
on the MAC - OS X 10.9
iPhoto start to import photo, and more or less, after importing almost 500 photos, just get stop at one particular photo and thats it.
What are the reason?
Thank you

Thank you leonie,
so my question is why a photo became corrupted in the iPhone?
Step 1
Take a Photo
Step 2
The taken photo goes into Cameral Roll
What are the reason that became corrupted?
Thanks

HT1338 My mac is becoming too slow. It takes long to open word documents, pdf files or excel documents or even safari. Can anybody suggest something? I have tried to reduce the number of open applications, but does not seem to work.

Hi ...
Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
From the drop down menu click Restart.
See if that makes a difference ...

4" x 6" videos take longer to open than a 3" x 5" vid? Load time affected?

I think I know the answer to my question but I want to make sure before I go and change the sizes of all my little mini videos:
Does the speed at which a video opens depend (among other things) on the DIMENSIONS OF THE VIEWING BOX? So that a 3“ x 5” picture takes longer to open than, say, a 4“ X 6” picture?
Is the difference a noticeable one? If a larger picture means waiting only two more seconds for the video to open and show, then that seems an Ok payoff to me. But if the wait becomes considerably longer, than it probably is not Ok to the visitor.
Thank you.

Winston C... I mean at the point where a visitor to my website has already opened the Big Album Index page and clicks onto one of my mini videos, like the Dominatrix Rise Up vid. If I were to make smaller the box in which you see the Dominatrix speaking, would that page open up faster? If yes, then is it substantially faster? Or am I ok just leaving the dimensions of the box alone?

Can you help me?

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos". How can I do that without losing some of the features

I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos". How can I do that without losing some of the features of those two? I just want to add a feature. Thanks

Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores if you are running iOS6)>Apple ID. Tap your son's ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID and password.
You shouldn't lose the music, but if you try to update any apps that you bought with the family ID, you will have to use that password that is linked with that ID in order to update.
Avoid downloading past purchased content with the old ID if you can since you will associate the iPad with the old ID for 90 days and you will lock yourself out of your own, new ID for that period of time. Read more about associated devices in iTunes here.

"Manually manage music and videos" takes up more space than syncing?

Hello all,
I fear that I am just stupid and unseeing an obvious answer to this query, but ask I shall, because it is frustrating me to no end.
I recently downloaded a few audiobooks from my local library to listen to on my iPod Touch; the app in question requires that you "manually manage music and videos" rather than syncing. Fine.
I switch over to iTunes, check the box, and now my music--without changing anything, mind--is now taking up an additional 1.8 (or more) gigs on my iPod. I toggle the option to "manually manage" on and off, and with it "on", my music takes up more space than with it "off", even though it's the same music, same podcasts.
Can someone please explain to me why syncing manually takes up more space than syncing automatically and where the extra gigs are coming from? There's not that much audio on my iPod--1.52 gb of music, 1.97 gb of podcasts and .69 gb of apps--which only adds up to 4.18 gb, and on an 8g touch, should leave me with about 4 gb of "wiggle room", so to speak, rather than .27 gb.
Help, please!

iTunes will normally put just one copy of each file on the iPod and link it to multiple playlists. If your iPod's database has been corrupted at some point however, there may be unattached copies of your meadia from earlier sync attempts, taking up space on the drive, but not visible in the library. How much space does iTunes report for Other? Excluding files placed manually & intentionally on the iPod, "other" is typically an overhead of 1%-2% of the size of the media and represents the iPod database, artwork, games etc. If you have significantly larger amounts of "other" then you will need to restore your iPod in order to reclaim the space.

IPad 16GB iOS 8.1.1 upgrade and now cannot open Music and Videos apps

My iPad 16GB installediOS 8.1.1 upgrade and now cannot open Music and Videos apps...HELP?

Since yesterday morning about 11:00 I have been having TERRIBLE email problems on this iPad 3G. Email comes in (I hear the sound) but nothing displays -- no folders, no content, no nothing in e-mail. The blank email screen shows up and then disappears after about 10 seconds, taking me back to the Home Screen.
Right now, the only way I can see email on this device is to log onto AOL via the AOL app.
I have been doing a lot of online reading about the problem. It has to do with iOS 8.1.3 and it affects older iPads and iPhones. I'm having no problems on my iPod touch, which -- fortunately -- is so old it cannot update its iOS 6.
I waited to update the iOS on this iPad until iOS 8 was "mature." That was about 2 weeks ago.
Anybody know know if Apple is aware? working on a solution?

SL takes longer time to start up and shut down after "IceClean".

Greetings,
After "IceClean" (both maintenance and cleanup), SL seems (obviously) to take longer time to start up and shut down.
Any idea why and how can I resolve it?
Thank you so much.
Cheers.

Hi,
I've finally able to solve the problem. The problem was due to start up item. There were 2 trial application (expired long ago) in the folder. After clearing the application, start up and shut down are fast as light.
I think I've "awaken" the start up application after "IceClean" as IceClean has deleted their log file or something like that and therefore the applications have to run again.
In order to be fair to IceClean, it is my fault to be blamed.
Thanks again.
Cheers

Music and videos no longer upload after ipod software updated

I recently updated the software on my ipod to the latest version (1.2.2). I just clicked yes when the pop up asked whether I wanted to or not. Next thing I know, my music and videos no longer upload onto the ipod. They appear to be syncing because itunes shows syncing progress and stuff. It actually says the music is uploading on itunes but when i go onto my ipod there's no music or videos on it at all. The pictures however do upload. What could be the problem?

This is an iPod Classic you have because the latest firmware version is 1.0.2.

Need to get all the files, well music and video, from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary.

Need to get all the files, (well music and video), from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary. (So basically sync the other way to normal)
Laptop hard drive broke so had to buy a new one and obviously now need to sort out my itunes.
Did try downloading all my purchased stuff onto itunes but it has missed some things off, and there are some files I did not purchase from itunes so need a way of getting them back on there.
Sure this question has been asked a million times but can't find anything to help me on here so thought I'd ask.
-Did have a look at going onto the start menu and opening the hidden items thing but couldn't see any reference to ipod or device on it so wasn't sure how to do it that way.
-On itunes under my device when its connected, the section about manually restoring and backing up, would that help me? Because that says it will manually back up my ipod to my computer then could restore that back up, obviously I don't want to accidnetally get rid of everything on my ipod so didn't want to try that just in case without checking.
(And yes I have disabled auto sync to device when conncected!)
Can anyone help me please? Sorry if i've overcomplicated this!
Thanks:)
Chris

Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media. You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else. As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC. Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

My computer will not let me click the box in iTunes where it says "sync only checked music and videos." So i cant unsync songs that i don't want on my iPod but still want in my iTunes. HELP?!

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
          Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
          Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
          Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
          Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
          Advantages: All images should be preserved.
          Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.
