Modified start time for songs overlaps on to other songs

If I change the start time of a song in itunes, and I listen to the song on suffle with an ipod touch, other songs that I shuffle start with that same modified start time as the original song.
That is,
Say I have a song, "Great Song" by "Cool dudes"
and another song "Terrible Song" by "Get this off your iPod"
And I set the start time for Great Song to be 0m 42s. If I have my iPod touch on shuffle and this song is picked, it starts at 0:42. If I change the song before this song finishes and Terrible Song is picked, it will also start at 0m 42s, despite me never changing its start time.
How can I fix this?

Hi Alonzo,
In the UK, you currently should be in GMT with Daylight Saving on. You'll need to correct the time on the phone (by moving it back one hour in Settings > Time & date > Time) when you have done this.
After this you'll need go into iSync, select your phone and from the Devices menu select Reset Device to re-populate the phone with the correct data.

"Start" time for songs

Hi everyone, within iTunes, you're given the ability to actually set the start time for a song, in my case, this would allow me to cut out the intro... My question is this, when I do set the time for a song, it works fine within iTunes, but it does not carry over to my iPod... is there a way of setting this?

I believe it should work on iPods. It seems to work just fine on my 5th generation iPod. Perhaps time to perform a Restore on the iPod to make sure it is in a good state of repair and resync your library?
Alternatively you can create a copy of the track from the original that has the start time specified. This will make a copy trimmed down to only the parts between the start/stop times. Then sync that version to the iPod.

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

John,
Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
*if ( bindingContext != null ) {*+
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+

Delaying start time for Nokia 925 Aps?

Is it possible, delaying start time for Nokia 925 Aps? For. egzample, Night watsch (uses a lot of batteries).
I need to be visible from 5:00. Is it possible, make it automatic startup 5:00?

hi mate, sorry to hear about your experience. in this case, the fault may lie with the Nokia Care point's handling of your device. in this case you will need to persist with them until they either fix it or issue you with a replacement. else if they are not being conducive to the matter, then you will need to take up the issue with head office of Nokia in your region.

How to edit the starting time for clips in properties?

Hello there ,
I’m testing the CS5 Audition right now and find it great except for one thing:
In the properties for each clip there is a starting time. But it just can’t be edited!
I can change the starting time of the whole session – yes.
But not the ones of the individual clips. Only by moving them around and that is not very precise.
Is there a way to edit this starting times for the clips by typing in numbers?
Thank you :).

Do I have to save any time I make a change?
As far as I'm aware, you've always had to save changes to metadata to make them permanent!
One more please:
Can't I group Clips and move them together anymore?
One more thing please:
Many people say that CS5 is worse than 3.
Why are all those people bothered?
No you can't group clips in CS5.5. And the reason that a lot of people are bothered is - because you can't group clips in CS5.5.
There are a few other reasons cited too, but I think that the lack of clip grouping may be at the top of the list, judging from the number of comments about it. If you look around the forum you will find a lot of discussion about this.

The start time for SAP service

Experts:
Sometimes I need to know the start time for SAP service at
the NT service panel.
However either the service panel or the event viewer does
not give the service start time.
Is there a file to check above info?
Thanks!

Hi Jenna,
Windows Event Viewer will give you details on how long the service has been running since its startup.
A simple mathematical subraction can give you when the service was started.
Hope this is useful.

Does anyone besides me find it odd that calendar.app assigns a start time for an all day event?

Does anyone besides me find it odd that calendar.app assigns a start time for an all day event?

Hi SharpBud,
The date for all day event stored in SQL in GMT time, the start time for an all day event returns the start time in GMT time, which is not the current time most likely.
This is a confirmed issue, as a workaround, I would suggest you to use a calculate column for the event for the column, using the following format:
IF(TEXT(([End Time]-[Start Time])-TRUNC(([End Time]-[Start Time]),0),"0.000000000")="0.999305556",IF([Start Time]=ROUND([Start Time],0),[Start Time],DATE(YEAR([Start Time]),MONTH([Start
Time]),DAY([Start Time])+1)),[Start Time])

Setting the starting time for multiple podcasts

How do I set starting time for a group of podcasts at the 30 second mark. Mostly the beginning are all repetitious which I heard before.
I know, I can do that individually by going to info and set the slider. But how can I do this collectively?

I don't think you can do it on multiple files at once. Probably the easiest thing to do is to select the first one and change the setting. Before you close out of that window, copy your start time from the field and then click next at the bottom of the window and paste into that one and so on until you're done. It's not pretty, but the quickest way I know of to do it. Otherwise, you might Google Doug's Scripts and see if that site has a script that might do this.

If I have manually set "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for songs, and my hard drive is backed up in Time Machine, when files/songs are transferred on new hard drive, will my "Start Time" "Stop Time" options be there?

My Macbook Pro will be going in for reimaging and my hard drive will be wiped, I want to know if all my iTunes preferences will be copied if I have backed them up on Time Machine. Specifically, if I have set certain "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for my songs, and I copy my iTunes library, will these "Start Time" and "Stop Time" options remain or will I have to manually set them one by one once again? I need a reply ASAP! Thanks so much!

As far as I'm aware the start & stop times are stored in the library database, not the media files. If you backup/restore/transfer the whole library then the settings are included. If you create a complete copy of your iTunes folder on another drive you can connect to that copy by holding down option/alt as you start iTunes so you can check that everything is working properly before you send the Macbook away.

Delay start time of song

I have a track in itunes that I want to delay the start of. I would like to start it 18 seconds in to avoid the intro, every time it plays as part of a playlist or otherwise.
I went to Info and checked the box that says Start Time and I made it :19.
But when I play the song, it plays it from the beginning anyway. What's up with that?
I am using version 10.6.3.25 because I want to keep the Cover Flow option and the program works fine for me. (Increasingly I find that new versions of programs just add crap I don't want or need and take away features I like).
Thanks for your help resolving this issue.

Well, thanks for all the replies but I figured it out for myself.
Actually the setting of in and out points in Options in itunes apparently does not work for some long mp3's, or at least doesn't work correctly.
I had to mess around with it to get it to work, putting in different values for seconds and minutes than what logic would dictate. I got it to work, though not at the exact in and out times I wanted.
Thanks again for all the help!

Custom starting point for song?

I'm wondering if it's possible to set a custom starting point for a song, similar to the way that the end point can be set:
I find that I have to start my song about two measures in (I tend to need more time than the Count In setting allows), but when I go to share the song, I don't want those first two measures. Short of highlighting all tracks and dragging them left when I'm done, is there another way to set a custom start?
Thanks!
Andrew

Does anyone know how to set the starting time for an audio book?

I am trying to restart a burn in iTunes that failed for an audiobook. I need to set the start time so it will not have to reburn the disks that were already completed. I cannot find out how to do that in version 11 if the book consists of more than one file. Anyone have an idea how to do this? Apple wants me to pay $20 for something that should be in the help menu.

UCCX 5.0(2)SR02 is the version
I attached a screenshot of what I am trying to use but I am not sure what to put as the value? I tried using "now" and "null" but no success.

Can I edit the start time for all the podcasts from a single subscription downloaded to my itunes? i.e. want to creat a playlist of all the podcasts I have from a particular show...

I want to creat a playlist of all the podcasts I have from a particular show, want to edit out the first minute on all to skip the intro. Do not want to edit over 200 podcast manually. Is there a solution?

View menu -> Show Status Bar
Then the total play time for any group of tracks you select in the Songs area, for any selected album or for any selected playlist will show at the bottom of the iTunes window as in previous versions.
The ability to open playlists in separate windows was for some unfathomable reason removed in iTunes 11. Whether it will ever come back none of us here can say, but you can express your need for that feature via Apple's feedback page:

Set start time for symbols on timeline?

Hi
I built several buttons - made as symbols - that animate onto the screen, and would like to stagger the start times slightly for effect.
I thought I would be able to simply drag the symbols onto the stage and set the start times by clicking/dragging them on the timeline, but that doesn't seem to be working. I see the "Playback" and a + button but regardless of what I try I can't seem to delay the start of the symbol.
Any ideas?
Many thanks, I'm getting stuck between old Flash programming, Captivate development and After Effects... whew!
Rich

First turn autoplay off in each button. Then tell us how you want these buttons- are they supposed to appear at different time or just play at different times?
If you want to show them at different times and then play them turn their display on where you want them and it will turm off before automatically.
Autoplay if OFF on this picture. It has a checkmark when it is ON.
