Mono track locks iPod issue gotten worse?

So I've followed the long-running "mono track locks iPod" problem...you know, the one where a mono track (I think AAC, but I can't remember) is paused, the iPod turns off, and won't turn back on without a reset. Well, I just had it happen...while either at the very end or very beginning of a track that I ripped myself into 192 stereo AAC. I'm not sure of exactly where I paused it; I wasn't looking. I suppose this could be a random occurrence, but has anyone else had this happen when the track wasn't Mono?
General specs: iPod Photo 60; Firmware 1.2 (the one with the busted smart playlists). The tracks in question (if they matter) were tracks 4 and 5 of American Idiot ("Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and "Are We the Waiting"). Any ideas? I tried to recreate it, but no-go.

I am having the same problem. It doesn't matter what podcast I am in. I usuall play a game (Sudoku - downloaded from itunes) while listening and the two of them running at the same time is impossible now. When I am holding it, it also seems as if I am feeling (and I do hear) the HD spinning. I am wondering if there is a bad spot in it. Can you reformat the HD in the ipod? I've done everything else the site suggests!

Stereo to individual mono tracks?

GB doesn't seem to be able to split out a stereo sound file to left only mono and right only mono. I've gotten around this issue by creating a copy of the file and panning one track left and the other right. Selecting Mono channel 1 or 2 input in Info just merges the both tracks together into one mono track (for some reason), panning just sends the combined signal to the L or R. This solution is fine while editing in GB, but is bad for the final output where not only would I like to preview the combined audio tracks to set levels, but also export them so that the left channel material is on both tracks of the final stereo file. Here's what I'm dealing with so there is no confusion. I am e-mailed a stereo file with vocals on L and temp music on R. I replace the temp music with several new options. Then I want to export the new mixes back to a stereo file with vocals centered to send for previews. GB does not seem to provide e with a way to do that. In other words, there does not seem to be any way to get the L channel of a stereo file to the center of a new stereo mix without also combining it with the old unwanted R channel material. I'd love to find a way. One solution would be to flip the L/R orientation of the copied track and play the vocals back panned respectively on two tracks, but that's also something that seems beyond GB's capabilities. So there's a new one ... how to flip the stereo field of a track, which would be an easy fix to this problem ... I'll post on a separate thread.

One way to do it would be to
1) pan the stereo track full left, and export.
2) set iTunes' prefs to convert to a MONO AIFF file, do the conversion
3) drag the new file into GB.

ICloud find locked iPod Touch behavior

Scenario (real): Locked iPod Touch running IOS 4.x is stolen. Device is visible on iCloud and responds to commands, including wipe.
Issue: Touch was not connected to previously known WiFi network (home or AT&T public). It appears to have been added to a private, secured WiFi network.
Tests: Used 3GS with no SIM. Device will not connect to open WiFi AP. Device cannot be configured to add SSID without unlocking. Device does not appear on iCloud without active WiFi.
Questions:
1) Can a device connect to an open WiFi network (unknown, no password) for Find Me services while locked?
2) If not, how could someone access the WiFi settings to add a network without being able to also remove the FindMe functions and other services?
My guess is that there are two issues here. First, the FindMe feature is weak as it cannot connect to unknown open networks without unlocking (not a likely scenario in a theft). Second, the passcode lock, which was changed and reenabled remotely while stolen (it was on when stolen also) appears to have not prevented someone from accessing the device at least sufficiently to access WiFi settings. I am familiar with JB, and this device wasn't, but if a JB it seems like the thief would just remove all the protections including the lock and tracking features.
Thanks.
I believe it was 4.2 (it was current as of March/April of this year - it was stolen then, took a month to appear, disappeared until today, and then reappeared in the same location). I decided to wipe it today after speaking with less than helpful police officers (they would have liked to help, but unless I could give them the name and address (it only resolved to one of four apartments) they couldn't get involved. It is unfortunate that Apple doesn't use the AppStore and UUID to provide law enforcement with IP addresses that can be used to track via ISPs (yes, I tried that).

The device only had one configured WiFi network - mine - in addition to whatever Apple includes by default like AT&T. Using the location I was able to scan WiFi networks in the neighborhood of the thief - there are over 20, but no 'public' SSIDs. It is a college apartment community and everyone appears to be reasonably paranoid. I believe that given this my assumption is reasonable.

Why can't iTunes track your ipod's serial number when it is synced to iTunes?

I was wondering Why, if your iPod is stolen, iTunes cannot track your ipod's serial number when it is synced to iTunes.. I've had my iPod touch almost a year now and it is registered in my name and everything. This past weekend someone somehow got into my car while at a concert and stole my purse, my ipod, my friend's ipod and wallet. I didn't think to file a police report because I figuered there would be nothing they can do. Since, a lot of people buy and sell iPods all of the time from one another instead of from a store. I thought to let it go, but it keeps haunting me, someone has access to a lot of my person information. This hit me when at work, I was using Pandora internet radio, and someone deleted all of my radio stations and added their own. They are still using it till this day and I have no clue what to do, I've changed my password to Pandora even. I know it's being used via my iPod from my Pandora app, I regreat not downloading the new ios5 on my iPod... So, I really have no further idea of what to do. I contacted Pandora in hopes they could change my account password or delete it or something, I just hope they haven't used any thing else important. I really wish it were possible for iTunes to track an iPods Serial number when the iPod is either synced to iTunes / iTunes store.. If it were possible, I wish they could help me out and at least lock my prior iPod or hopefully delete everything from that.. I don't have much hope in this though :/

Thanks for the suggestions... tried tehm but no luck so I've taken it back. I think I'll try a Samsung (only other ones I've found with a Sleep Function) and move to Audible instead of iTunes. A shame after years of iTunes use but I shouldn't have to spend days getting a product to work. Thanks again.

Export mixdown of several stereo tracks as one mono track

How can I select a few stereo tracks in STP and export them as a single mono track? either back to FCP or as a standalone file?
Thanks!
Processor 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 32 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
Final Cut Studio 7
Oops, i posted this in the wrong discussion group. can this be moved to STP?

On the Channels Strip (of the Audio Track with the Audio Region), ctr+click on the left segment of the Input Button. That opens a popup menu where you can select Left (only the left channel of the Audio Region is played as mono), or Right (only the right channel of the Audio Region is played as mono).
Once the signal flow of the Channel Strip is mono (one channel), you can use the "Mono➤Stereo" version of some plugins to convert the Channel Strip to a stereo channel.
About your second question. If you are referring to the little blue "Catch Playhead Button", that automatically scrolls the Workspace when the Playhead reaches the right border to keep the Workspace visible. You also can also enable the "Scroll in Play" mode in the local View Menu. That one locks the Playhead in the center and scroll the Workspace "underneath"
However if you are referring to that little Play icon in the left upper corner of the Region Header (only visible in the Editor), that one, the "Solo Play Button", only plays that Region in solo mode. It is basically a combination of "Play " and "Solo" in on button. You can find all those little informations and much more in my graphically enhanced manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works".
Hope that helps

"Can't lock iPod" and other problems!!

I'm trying to restore my iPod and on iPod Updater i click restore and it says "Can't lock iPod. Please check if any other applications are using iPod and try again". There are no other applications using the iPod. Please help me!

and this is after having a bad time with the first one now this. I am not really confident with Apple. I noticed no one has responded to this issue. And I really have logged in over 3 hours on hold to get a replacement. Not happy with Apple.

How to put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view of Audition 3 ?

Hi guys,
Previously I have had no issues simply using Adobe Audition 3 for simple stereo recording and editing of a stereo feed taken from a mixer... well nearly no issues.... :-)
Today, I'm having a bad day or else it's because I'm getting used to being retired.. :-) ......
Query : How do I put two mono tracks into the usual stereo view in Edit view so they both display correctly there?
Put simply I have two mono wav files. Let's call them Left_wav and Right_wav.
I cannot seem to get them imported into a new clean Edit view (Normal stereo track layout) so that Left_wav is on the top half and Right_wav is on the bottom half.
Whenever I try, I just get either Left_wav or Right_wav taking up the whole of the edit view. i.e. it just shows one track.
Can anyone familiar with Audition 3 kindly help? I'd appreciate a simple step by step... I just can't see where I've been going wrong, and it's driving me bananas :-).
Thanks

There are various ways to do this in Audition 3. here's one.
Open both mono files separately in Edit view. Then convert Left_wav to Stereo by going to Edit/Convert Sample Type and under Channels select Stereo with Left Mix at 100% and Right Mix at 0%. This will give you a new stereo file with Left_wav on the top channel. Next go to the Right_wav and copy to the clipboard using Edit/Copy. Return to your new stereo file and enable Edit Right channel only in Edit/Edit Channel/Edit Right Channel. Then make sure that the cursor is at start of the stereo file and Paste Right_wav into the bottom channel of the new stereo file. Finally Save As.

BW system ran out of "session" = transaction SMGW; how to track down "resource" issues?

Hi SAP Experts,
we had on our SAP BW system the following situation:
We are having a week daily process chains, that is uploading data from our ECC system.
Once in a month, we are uploading from our APO/SCM system data from our BW system.
Parallel we are having also SAP PreCalculation Server (with three PreCalc instances) instances running. The PreCalc Server is running daily.
The landscape in short: (DB server = AIX/Oracle, App-Server = Linux, SAP System=7.01; PreCalc Server = Win2008/64)
This week when all was running at the same time, we faced problems, that log-on to SAP System via ABAP took a long time, same BEx Reports (some failed with Run Time errors).
From the landscape infrastructure we couldn’t detect any resource issues (we are having two application servers connected to the BW landscape).
What we saw from the system transactions (SM66, SM51, SM21, ST02, ST04, ST06N) the issue did not seem to be resource based, by network, database, amount of work processes etc.
But we noticed in transaction SMGW, that it seemed not possible for external programs, like a BEx reports or the PreCalc Server to connect with new session to the BW ABAP landscape.
The trace showed in SMGW:
* LOCATION    SAP-Gateway on host server / sapgw##
* ERROR       Conversation 01792797 not found
* TIME        Tue Jul 22 14:13:03 2014
* RELEASE     720
* COMPONENT   SAP-Gateway
* VERSION     2
* RC          728
* MODULE      gwxxconn.c
* LINE        971
* COUNTER     75240
In system log, database alert log, we could not find any dead locks reported or anything reported, that explained why, via the SMGW is was not possible to connect with new sessions.
We restarted the PreCalc Server and after clarifying with application team of APO/SCM we stop the process chain and than the system was back to “normal” operation.
Now the question is, if you faced similar issues and what the solution, or how you where able to track down the issue?
Thanks for your ideas.
Best regards
Carlos Behlau

Hi Alwina,
thank you for your help.
What I was able to is in SMGW, because the system was very slow, that some connection where "red".
I forgot to capture screenshots and now I am not able to recall the the status text.
It is there a way to find out, if we reach the "max" connection numbers, like parameter gw/max_conn 500, via ST03N or via SMGW or via some logs?
I checked the SMGW trace, but I am not able to identify via the trace in SMGW, if the failures happened now, because max. values of parameters have been reached or what the cause was/is.
What I meant:
All external programs, like SAP BW BEx Analyzer (Excel Reporting tool for BW) are connecting via RFC calls. Also SAP Pre-Calculation Server is using RFC calls to generate the reports and send them via E-mail.
Usually, I can see these connections in SMGW (goto => logon clients).
There I didn't noticed that we reach 500, when we had the problem.
Best regards
Carlos

Stereo to 2 mono tracks conversion problem

The problem I'm running into is that once i've split the stereo track into 2 mono tracks, and bring the one mono track back into logic express to use, it still recognizes plays as though it's a stereo track.
The stereo track that i'm using basically has the music on the left side and a metronome on the right side so we can use it for backtracks through an ipod in a live setting.
I've also ran into a similar problem after i edited some audio tracks I was using in a sample, after i edited it and brought it back into the proram, it didn't want to recognize the origional track that i had...
has anyone else ran into this or knows what i'm doing wrong?

Is this possible in iMovie 9?
Yes, it is.
In iMovie choose Share>Export to QuckTime. Choose Export: Sound to AIFF then click the Options button.
From the Channels dropdown menu select Mono. Click OK and then save the file to the Desktop.
Detach and delete the original Project and drag in the newly created file and place it on the video in the timeline so it imports as a connected clip and not just in the background.

How to make 48 mono tracks into 24 stereo tracks

When I opened a Final Cut Pro project in Audition 5.5 the Final Cut Pro project had 24 stereo pairs. The Audition project has 48 mono tracks. How do I convert every pair of mono tracks into a stereo track?

The FinalCut XML format that is used to send this only accomodates mono clips on mono tracks (just like FinalCut itself). If it supported Stereo clips on Stereo tracks like most DAWs or PremierePro, then it wouldn't really be an issue.
That being said, the linking between two adjacent clips in a stereo pairs in FinalCut doesn't transfer over because this version of Audition CS5.5 doesn't have the ability to group clips. If the source audio files are originally stereo, you could save the session as a SESX, and then perhaps make a script to modify the XML to change all the tracks to stereo, and find and combine 2 mono clips referencing a stereo file, and just make a single stereo clip. I'm not sure if that explanation helps (or even makes sense).
Perhaps you could post the session, and I could give more direct advice.

How to track your ipod touch with serial number?

Well i lost my ipod touch and I don't know how to find it. Is there anyway to track my ipod touch with my serial number.

Here is Apple article:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
While Apple might be able to get information when the iPod is connected to iTunes, there would be privacy issues with revealing it to anybody who claimed it was stolen. Just think what would happen if you sold the iPod and later claimed it was stolen or lost.

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.
