Last played and play count help.

My "last played" hasn't updated since 9/9 and my play count isn't loading, either. I've tried to reset the play count but it's still not working. Anyone know what I can do?

Delete several tracks you know you've played ... that will cause the last played/play count to be updated.

  • Cannot sync Last Skipped and Skip Count

    I have a 1st-gen iPod Nano with the latest firmware (1.3) and the latest iTunes (7.0.2) but when I sync the Nano, the Last Skipped and Skip Count fields are not updated on any of the songs I've skipped. There seem to be many people complaining about this so can you please get a fix asap?

    I have playlists that rely on the Last Skipped and
    Skip Count properties of songs, but these items only
    seem to be triggered if the song is fast forwarded
    between 3-20 seconds into the song. I tried to skip
    I think this is how it's intended, though there isn't much info on this feature. I've seen the same behavior and other users have reported same.
    One thing that threw me off for a bit using this feature was trying to use with playlists where the songs had "remember playback position" checked. Last skipped doesn't register at all with these tracks.

  • Showing date, time and/or counter - HELP!

    I need the date and a counter to show (superimposed?) over the video in my iMovie. I know the date and time recorded was imported with the video files from my DV camcorder because they are available in File Info. The video recorded was a court deposition for a lawyer, and they will want the date recorded to show on the video. I'm also guessing they'll want a counter for easy access to certain parts of the video if needed. How can I do this?

    Sue,
    I did purchase and download the timecode overlay plug-ins you referenced. While they appear to be what I need, when I try to apply them to any of my clips, the clip just turns completely black with no sound. I know this gets into another topic, but any ideas?
    Thanks so much!

  • 3G: play count updated, but not last played

    I have a 3G 10GB iPod, and since updating to iTunes 7, my stats are not syncing correctly. When I play something on my iPod and then sync the stats back to iTunes, the play count field is properly adjusted, but the last played count does not. I understand why this does not occur in the Shuffle, which lacks an internal clock, but the iPod does.
    Does anyone know how to correct this problem? Everything I do is based on smart playlists, so the stats need to be correct.

    Found the problem. After my iPod didn't update after purchasing new songs, I checked my iPod options. For some reason my iTunes iPod Options changed from "Automaticaly update ..." to "Manually manage ...". Once I set this back to automatic everything updated fine.
    It is interesting that even when "Manually manage" was selected, a new Podcast trak was downloaded to the iPod and, after listening to it, the Last Played and Play Count fields were updated.
    Also, regarding my question about the Last Played update with my Shuffle, I learned that iTunes 5 implemented a change to update this field with the current date and time once the Shuffle is re-synch'd.

  • Last played won't update from sync

    A couple of days ago I started up iTunes and it asked to accept the license agreement. When I clicked agree my library came up but all my Last Played and play counts had been erased. I reloaded an old library from six months ago and then tried to sync my iPods to update my last played counts but it only worked for about 300 files. I have over 40000 mp3s in my library. I know if you change the file in iTunes it won't sync but there's no way that many files have been changed in six months. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    With more testing, it turns out to be just Wow Hits 2012.   All my other iTunes-Store-purchased music is updating properly.

  • Last Skipped Date, Skip count, are not updated in any songs that i listen in my iPhone5s

    I've been using smart playlist that's relays on the play count, last skipped date and skipped count fields... I have been using an old ipod to heard my music through this smart playlist that live updates all the time and it was working great.
    So my issue is, since i bought a new iPhone 5S and start using it to listen music, my smart playlist that relays on " play count, last skipped date, skipped count " fields are not updating, and when i connect my iphone to the PC i realize that those fields never update after i play or skip any song in my iPhone.
    So, I'm not sure if this is an iPhone restriction, that i need to use my iPod again to get my smart playlist that relys on those fields to work... or my iphone is defective and need to re-install the iOS.
    Any help on this matter will be enormously appreciated
    Thanks in advance

  • Help, Library corrupted, need to save ratings, play counts, and last played

    Help, my iTunes lost its connection to my media server yesterday and it seems to have totally corrupted the library. I have all my music files intact, but if I recreate the library by starting afresh, I will lose 6 years worth of ratings, play counts, and last played dates. I do not want to lose this information. I have the information in an library export.
    How can I add back the music and restore the metadata??

    I am having this exact same issue in iTunes 11 running on OSX 10.6.8.
    Short tracks (less than 10sec) do not update their metadata to increase the play count. However if I play a short track on my iPod or iPhone and then sync with iTunes the play count and last played info is updated.
    This really messes up my smart playlists that use playcount limiters.
    I hope there is a fix for this soon.

  • ITunes 9 - 'last played' and 'play count' still do not sync on manual

    Tonight I upgraded to iTunes 9 and my iPod Touch to v3.1.1 but the 'improved' sync doesn't seem to have improved to what I need.
    Alright, basically I have a lot of rare songs and live recordings in my library. My iPod Touch is only 16gb and my music collection is just over 99gb counting all my audiobooks. From what I can tell iTunes 9 will let me sync my music library with only select artists, but even this doesn't allow for instances where I only want four or five songs out of an artist's forty or fifty songs.
    The only way to put what I want on my iPod is to set it to Manually Manage my Music and Videos. That's okay with me BUT iTunes won't sync the 'last played' and 'play count' of songs that are on my iPod and in my iTunes library.
    Can someone help me solve this issue? I want to be able to manually manage my music and videos AND have iTunes sync the play count and last played for the songs I listen to.

    If you manage the music on your iPod Touch manually the playcount and last played data does not get updated in iTunes. It works that way for all iPod models.
    To solve this problem you can do the following:
    - Create a playlist in which you add all the songs you want to add to your iPod Touch
    - Set your iPod to sync music automatically. On the music tab configure the iPod Touch to only sync the previously created playlist.
    - Sync your iPod Touch.
    Now you can manage the content of your iPod Touch by managing the contents of the playlist and then sync. And most importantly it will update your playcount and last played data.
    Hope this helps,
    Marc

  • Please help - shuffle has stopped updating play count & date last played

    All of a sudden these features have stopped working. (I've had this shuffle since January and it worked just fine till last week.) If I play a tune from iTunes on the computer, the play count & date are updated; but if I play a tune on the iPod, this information doesn't change as it used to. Can anyone help me out? I've already restored etc.

    I had a similar problem and was able to recover. I deleted all files on the iShuffle including the hidden ones. On Windows I killed the iPodservice and iTuneshelper processes. That allowed me to view the iShuffle memory in an Explorer window. Blow away all of the files and directories. (Be sure they are not hidden.) Pull the iShuffle out, launch iTunes (to restart the services - or reboot to play it safe), and plug the iShuffle back in.
    Hope this helps!

  • Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS5, my music stats (play count, last played, etc.) no long sync to iTunes. How can I fix this? Thanks for the help.

    Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS5, my music stats (play count, last played, etc.) no long sync to iTunes. How can I fix this? Thanks for the help.

    If you have any podcasts in your iTunes library you should see a Podcasts sync setting tab to the right when you connect your phone and click on its name on the left sidebar (see image below).  On this tab check to sync podcasts and sync your phone.

  • Sync play count, last played, and rating with iOS 5

    From other threads (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16563011#16563011 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/16505730#16505730 for example) it is clear that there are some problems with play count, last played, and rating information updating and syncing under iOS 5. I have at least a partial solution. I am posting it here instead of under one of the existing threads because 1) some discussions seem to be confusing the difference between updating the iOS 5 device data and syncing the updated data to the computer, and 2) some of the discussions are focused iPhone, and though the problem appears similar I only have an iPod touch to test the solution on.
    First of all, this is not a new problem. Prior to iOS 5, I would plug my iPod Touch into the computer and not see any play count or last played data for songs I knew I had just listened to. I discovered that if I clicked (in my computer's iTunes display of the iPod) on one song that I had recently listened to, it would suddenly display play count and last played for all the songs played since the last update. I could then transfer this playlist data (more on this in a minute) to the corresponding songs on the computer. Under iOS 5, this no longer works, and in fact causes the new play count and last played data on the iPod to be lost. However, under iOS 5 there is a way to get this information to update, even though you don't see it when you first connect to the computer.
    To make this work, you have your iPod set on Manually manage music and videos under the Summary tab of the iPod settings in iTunes. I have messed around with this for hours, including several restores and resets of my iPod touch, and have found no way to get this to work under various Sync Music options. I have been using the Manually manage mode for years because I use my iPod with numerous different iTunes Libraries on several different external hard drives.
    Here's the trick: Manually manage must be in effect before you connect the iPod to the computer. After your iPod shows up in the iTunes interface on your computer, in the main view (where it shows the different tabs at the top and capacity at the bottom) there is a Sync button at the very bottom right. Click on this and wait for it to go through the Sync steps (don't worry, you're not losing anything), and, voila, when you go to the songs (on the iPod) you have listened to since the last time you connected to the computer, the play count and last played data will be there.
    Unfortunately, it's not a simple matter to get this data synced to the computer, but it can be done. At first I thought that once I got the data to show up on the iPod I could go to the Music tab and Sync Music to get the playlist data to the computer, but this does not work. It will sync the play count and last played data that are on the computer to the iPod, overriding the newer data. The way I have been getting my playlist data from my iPod to my computer without ever changing the Manually manage setting is by using the Copy Tag Info Tracks To Tracks script from Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes <http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=copytinforackstotracks>. This isn't hard to download or install or use and copies playlist information very quickly.
    I have never had a problem with play count or last played on my 2nd generation nano, which still works beautifully. As far as I can tell, play count and last played have never worked well on the iPod touch; there are threads in discussions complaining about this from years ago. It would be nice if Apple would recognize that these are extremely important features to many users and make it a priority to make these basics work before (or while) adding a lot of other fancy features.

    Just for posterity in case anyone else ever has a similar problem.
    I found out I can work around my problem, but I have limitations. The only time it'll update the correct songs is after I restore it and then add the initial songs on to the Shuffle. The key is to not ever have a situation where I reshuffle the order of those songs. If I ever shuffle to better alphebatize or categorize things, the sync updating screws everything up. If say Song #3 on my Shuffle's playlist after the intitial transfer gets moved around to being anything other than the third song played, my Shuffle/iTunes will still think that song has been played although the Song #3 I actually listened to after the sync update will be different. Now I have to carefully compose and place what songs I want loaded on since I can't mess around with the playlist setup at all.
    I know Apple support would likely blame my Shuffle for the problem (it's over 6 years old now). But it's funny how this only happened right after I installed 11.0. The update to 11.0.2 did nothing.

    Hello james,
    It sounds like you are reaching the limit of authorized computers you can have with your Apple ID. The most you can have is 5 computers authorized, so try authorizing your computer to play your purchases on this computer.
    To authorize a computer using your Apple ID
    Open iTunes
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.
    If needed, you may also deauthorize all the computers that have been authorized with your Apple ID if you need to.
    To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
