Missing Songs with some views of IPOD
An odd thing is going on with my iPod. Here is an example. I have about 400 Christmas songs. I have them as Christmas playlist and as a Chrismas Genre. But when I bring them up to play in random mode it shows that I have 40 or sometimes 50 sometimes 400. I tried to pick the whole playlist as an on the go playlist and then I get all of the tunes. They play correctly and all show up on my itunes. So what is up?
I just experienced the same problem when I moved my iTunes library to an external HD.

I would like to be able to resolve the problem even manually, would be good. I did not count how many songs have the "!" next to them, but probably 10% would be a good guess. Before I moved the library, I made copies on CDs of all the songs that were in Hard Drive->Music->iTunes->iTunes Music. When I look at that lists of artists/album names - the songs with the problem in the new external drive with the exclamation mark ! - do not appear in this list either. Yet, when I open up iTunes directed to the new external HD the songs are in the "Purchased" list. I have not deleted my original folder from the Mac HD until I resolve the problem. Any help would be much appreciated. http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=789

ITunes' Skip Count only works with some of my iPods
iTunes does not count songs skipped on my 1st generation Nano, 2nd generation Nano, or iPhone. It does count songs skipped during play on my computer or from my 1st generation Shuffle. When I took my 1st generation Nano to the Apple Store they got iTunes to count a skip, but I haven't been able to recreate this feat. Is this something dependent on settings, or is it a glitch of some sort?

I've written a java applet and it works fine with the

But it doesn't work with IE 5.5 with JRE 1.4.0 (But
I'm not sure if it's the browser's fault).
It works on a Linux PC with Netscape. (Not sure about
the plugin)...I bet the IE 5.5 is NOT using the Java Plug-in (what you're calling JRE 1.4.0), but is likely using IE's Microsoft JVM. You need to either make the hosting HTML explicitly tell it to use the Plug-in (via the <OBJECT...> tag instead of the <APPLET...> tag), or configure the plug-in to be used as the default JVM for the browser. -
Missing songs with the Sync functi
Hello,
I've got a 20GB Zen Touch with the newest v.x firmware. (hahaha from 2004)
Mediasource says I have 3672 songs, when I goto Sync all of my audio files and playlists, it only comes up with 349 songs...
Why?Message Edited by RealyPssd on 2-07-2005 06:24 AMSSR wrote:
Interesting idea, but the software shouldn't allow you to copy two tracks with the same artist, album and title data.
Hi SSR
The mediasource software had absolutely no problems copying them at all. The filename on my PC was different as the track number is part of the filename but the Tag info had the same Album, Artist and Track Name (Though a different track number). Mediasource had no problems recognising the different tracks but the Zen player recognised them as if they were the same and so ignored one.
I ran into this a LOT ripping my CD's. I have a large number of audio plays where the track title is often named after the location of the scene. As the same location is used a few times each "episode" there were in some cases an album (with same artist name) which had 3 or even 4 tracks with the exact same title (Though different track number).
In all cases, Mediasource wasnt phased at all but the Zen Touch would only allow one of the tracks on it. If you tried to copy direct, it gave you the option of skipping duplicate names or renaming them. If you used the audiosynch, then it just ignored them as it thought they were allready on the player.
Mediasource never had a problem with any of them and I think across my whole collection I will have had approaching 00 duplicate file names.
Took me a while to go through and find the common cause with the annomalies and even longer to go through and alter those titles. Now I check the titles each time I rip a cd as it only takes a couple of seconds at that stage.
Now Ive altered all the titles, botht the normal transfer and the audiosync work perfectly. Mediasource works as good as ever too.
Hope this info helps others. Im genuinely just reporting the experience as Ive had it and on my pc the theory does test exact.
If anyone is interested I can list a few of the cd's it happened with so that you can have a go yourself if you have the same cd.
Really I dont see this as a problem with the software or player. Its just a quirk of how some of the info has been entered on Gracenote. I suppose the only way to completely solve it would be to include the "Track Number" in the criteria for recognising duplicate tracks. I guess this would be a firmware issue.

Downloading a missing song with iTunes Match
On my second computer I had downloaded a song and it was deleted. iTunes now displays the missing file question mark. There is no option to download or play the song from iTunes Match. My assumption, is that if I delete the track it will delete from Match also. Is that correct? and also is there a way to download the song without rebuilding my iTunes library file ?
If you delete it, it will ask you if you want to delete from Match, select no. After that you will be able to redownload from the cloud hitting the cloud icon (if it was matched/uploaded to cloud in the first place).

I recently bought an Ipod touch 2nd gen, (Ebay). It's in great shape and seemed to be wiped clean.
When I connect (via windows computer) to Itunes with usb cord the Ipod icon shows, but the only function you can do is eject. When its in the upper right hand corner and you click on it all you get is a done button, when it's in the side bar right click and your only option is eject, left click has no effect. If I go to "file">devices it's as if there are no devices connected.
I purchased a song with Itunes on the Ipod itself, and it transferred to my library on the computer automatically .
I have an Iphone 5 and a nano that are still functioning with Itunes thru computer so I'm thinking the issue is with the Ipod touch. I've reset it several times, rebooted it, with no change.
nothing on the internet has helped, I called tech support and got disconnected. Should I take it to a retail store? I just don't know where to go next, I'm of course willing to pay for tech or repair. looking for suggestions.Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

. Can pictures get on your icloud other ways? Can something be put on there by someone other than yourself, liked public wifi or hacked? Got a big problem with some **** on an iPod and I am to knowledgeble about the ipod...thanks
You're not confusing this with a shared Photo Stream...?
Because the short answer is no, photos don't appear unless they were put there by someone with your Apple ID credentials. To rule out that possibility, change your Apple ID password by carefully following all these instructions:
iCloud: Change your iCloud account password
If you decide to change your password, and you also want to change your Apple ID, I recommend you do not concurrently change your Apple ID until sufficient time has passed and you are confident the password change has been effected on all your iOS devices. 24 hours ought to be more than enough.
It is not necessary to change your Apple ID unless it is an email address you no longer wish to use. -
I synced my ipod touch and the library opened up with some songs missing. These songs remain on my ipod, I thought that by syncing they would return to my itunes library. But they won't. Has anyone seen this before?
You should be able to copy iTunes purchases back to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from other sites or copied from your own CDs then are they not already on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the iPod.

Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.
Hello APVzW, we absolutely want the best path to resolution. My apologies for multiple attempts of replacing the device. We'd like to verify the order information and see if we can locate the tracking number. Please send a direct message with the order number so we can dive deeper. Here's steps to send a direct message: http://vz.to/1b8XnPy We look forward to hearing from you soon.

my ipod 4th gen gets wiped clean of music anytime I sync. it then only redownloads some of the music in the library and wont upload missing songs. They show on the ipod grayed out. How do I get this to stop? re-uploading takes 4 hours and is never completed. I only get some of the 6000+ songs I have. This started when I updated to IOS5 i think.

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings

Problems with some songs in iTunes (and my iPod)
Hi,
I do not know whether this is the right category for my problem, but I did not find a suitable one.
I have problems with some songs in iTunes. They do not sound right. It is hard to me to describe my problem in English (thanks to apple's "great" support...I was not able to contact them personally except by phone). The songs "hang", they sound like someone reels (?) it. The problem does not only appear with iTunes but also with my iPod nano first generation.
My godmother brang me CDs where that problems appear (but not the whole CDs have that problem, only a few songs) from the USA - I live in Germany. Maybe that is cause of the error. But I cannot imagine that, because CDs there and here have the same format and I have several CDs from the US where is no problem at all. I am absolutely sure that the CDs are originals and not a copy, by the way.
Maybe you can help me, it would be great!
Thanks,
Jule
Message was edited by: JAGgermanyYes, I thought that's what Restore should do, but the problems remain. Hmmm, the out of order 'album's' songlist is notated 1 of 8, 2 of 8, 3 of 8... I'll try 01, 02...
Probably a good idea.
The other album is running through the list of songs like fast-forward, but not playing the songs. Then, iPod locks up.
Do these same tracks play okay in iTunes? What is the original source for these tracks? Were they downloads from the iTunes Store or imported from outside of iTunes? What format are they encoded in and at what bitrate?

Why tracks visible in playlist do not appear in songs view ? Missing songs...
Hi all, (please forgive my English)
Versions :
Itunes : 11.0.1 (12) 64bits
Mac OSX : 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)
I discovered new mp3 do appear in Itunes playlist (recently added songs playlist) but do not appear in the main song list (songs/artist/album views).
As you can see in pictures below, I can find (and play) some songs in the search bar, but I can't find them manually in the main list (song view).
Here are 4 files in finder. The older one was already in Itunes.
Then I drag and drop 3 of them in itunes.
(I'm not using the synchronised mode with Itunes library).
As you can see below, 3 new songs appeared in playlist. Search bar shows 4 songs, everything seems ok.
Then, in artists view, there is only the older one. Meanwhile, idtag is correctly set.
In song view, there is the same problem. As you can see, the list is sorted by artists, and the 3 new files are missing.
I can even play song that is not in this list... (trough search bar).
For example, here is how is defined the mp3 being played (not present in the song list).
Thanks for your support !It's working now, i don't know how and why. Problem solved.

My iTunes won't sync all my songs with my iPod
I'm using auto sync, just like I always have, and the box is checked to sync all songs with the iPod. If you check the bar at the bottom of the sync page, it *thinks* all 5000+ songs are on the iPod, and there's plenty of room left. But when you play one of the songs on the iPod, it says playing 1 of 800. Some of my songs are unchecked to not sync, but we're talking 100 max. So how do I get the missing 4,100 songs to copy??
The iPod is an iPod touch with iOS 5.1.1; Mac is using OS 10.9.1; iTunes version 11.1.3.Have you tried performing a restore on the iPod?

Hello I have a few questions and I need some help with my iTunes and iPod
Hello iTunes people.
I have a little problem with my iTunes. I actually almost know nothing about iTunes really. But I have had a 80 gig ipod .. ummm I think it's a iPod classic maybe. A long time ago I just downloaded iTunes. I think one of my tech friends already had put the program onto my PC so I did not even have to download it. Anyways I put my life's collection of mp3's onto iTunes and then syncs it with my iPod and it worked great. Here is my problem. I just recently bought a MONSTER PC. I have lovingly named it " ED209 " I downloaded iTunes for it and I have the most up to date version.8.1.1 is the most current version correct? Ok well here is my problem. What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library. I DO NOT want to import anything from the library or playlist or whatever you call it ONTO the iPod because there is nothing in the library. Now this is were its gets weird and possibly silly. A person I was chatting with on Facebook sort of made fun of me because she was like " Dude! Just push " Sync " But the reason I am paranoid is because THIS is the message I get....
" The iPod " Aaron's iPod " is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this iTunes library? "
HOLY COW!! That girl on Facebook was making fun of me but READ THAT. That exactly says ERASE the "iPod" and Sync with THIS library " It does not say put what is ON the iPod into THIS Library. It says it the other way around. Clear as day it says it will ERASE the " Ipod " it does not say " Fill the library with whats on your iPod "
Do I all of a sudden not understand English or something???? I know how to freaking read and from what it says is sounds a 100 percent like " we will ERASE youe iPod and put everything from this playist or library onto your iPiod" But there is NOTHING in my library? Am I mentally challenged or what?
I hope someone can help me here and I have another request. Could someone just tell me all the cool things I can do with iTunes and my iPod? I am trying to read the help files and the FAQ and whatever else Apple provides you with but it has SO MUCH crap that looks usless. I find myself reading a whole paragraph about some simple little section of s section of a section of a feature! Know what I mean. Someone give me the long and short of the neat things I can do with this stuff. I have windows Vista with a wicked computer that has like 6 gigs of ram and m iPod is a 80 GB Classic
help !!
PROTEUS*What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library.*
1). Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
