My iPhone states it has more songs than it should

Iphone 4Gs - 16GB latest IOS6
Itunes 11.01 (12) on Imac running 10.8.2
Everytime i sync Itunes seems to add all my 'purchased' songs to the Iphone which i do not want it to do. Its not 'checked' on the Imac itunes to do so.
I sync a playlist called top 1000 to sync based on the top 1000 most played songs.
My phone and Itunes states there a 1178 songs on the iphone. where are the 178 extra songs and how can i stop them being on the phone.
I have checked what they are and they are all songs i have bought via the phone on itunes but are not on my top 1000 playlist. how can i delete them from my phone. they are already on my imac so i don't need them there.
any advice appreciated. Thanks

Take a deep breath.  Bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • My itunes library has more songs than my ipod will hold.

    My itunes library has more songs than my ipod will hold. What is the best way for me to choose what actually goes on the ipod?

    Or, when you are synching choose the songs you want on the IPod by checking them in the library, then tell it to only synch checked items.
    To be honest, the 'smart playlist' is probably a simpler way though. Go to playlists, click 'create new smart playlist' and choose your parameters from there. As you add new music to the library the playlist will update itself.

  • My dad bought an iPhone 4S, and I have the exact same model. Neither of us have the iOS6 update. His phone has 4G, mine doesn't. He also has more features than I. Why is that?

    Both of you should update to iOS 6 and then you will be
    the same if you have the same  model iPhone.

  • My Library has ten more songs than my iPod. How can I find out which songs are not syncing?

    My Library has ten more songs than my iPod. How can I find out which songs are not syncing?
    I recently had to purchase a new hard drive. Because the size of my music collection exceeds 140 GB, I stored all of my music on a separate external hard drive. When I exported everything back into my new iTunes library, I found that I had about 200 more songs than I had in the previous library. After deleting most of those extraneous songs, I was able to get my library close to where it was before. However, after syncing to my iPod Classic, I noticed that only 34,853 of the 34,863 loaded. How can I figure out which of those ten songs in my library did not sync to my iPod?

    It may be that the 10 songs are unchecked. To find them select songs view.
    If there is a column Heading marked with a tick then click on it to sort by this column.
    If the Column is not there then View > View Options and select the Checked column which will then display
    Check the songs by putting ticks in the empty boxes and resynch. Now those tracks should go over as well

    My ipad has more songs in my library than what is on my computer.  How do I transfer all of my music from my ipad to my computer

    Only if the songs were bought from iTunes, you use transfer purchases.
    If not, you need a 3rd party tools.

  • ITunes Match indicates more songs than Library

    Updating iTunes Match says "2821 songs are now available in iCloud", however, my library says 2820.  This occurs w/ 3 separate computers (Win7 desktop and laptop, and a MacBook Air running OS X Lion) all synced to the same iTunes Match account.  I know it's only a variance of 1 track, but has anyone else run into something similar?  Any way to manage just the music in iCloud?

    iTunes Match if only matched with a single library can only contain upto the number of Songs in that single library - clearly if it has access to more than one library it is soon going to contain more Songs than any individual library.

  • I have more songs than I can put on Ipod.  How can I un-click all songs in an album without doing each singly, to reduce space? Thanks

    I have more songs than I can put on Ipod. Will unclick some songs but one at a time is taking forever. How can I un-click all songs in an album without doing each singly, to reduce space needed on iPod? Thanks

    Why not try syncing a smart playlist that updates automatically every time you sync your iPod?
    Try something like this:
    1. Pull down File > New Smart Playlist;
    2. Playlist IS Music; click the plus button;
    3. Last Played IS NOT in the last 90 days;
    4. Select the option to Limit to xxx items selected by Random and click OK.
    Name the playlist that is created something distinctive then sync you iPod with that. It will automatically update based on the last played dates of a tune and you'll always have fresh content on your iPod. Modify the playlist as needed to make it give you the results you want.

  • Does anyone know of a simple home accounting application? iBank does not seem to be that user friendly and has more features than I need. I would like something that will connect to my bank and will allow the creation of a budget that is simple.

    I am looking for a very simple home accounting application. iBank seems to not be very intuitive and it has more features than I need. I am looking for the ability to create a budget and keep a bank register with the ability to connect to my bank and do updates.

    I have a small business, I chose Quickbooks because anything else cost much more. That triggered the hiring of a bookkeeper who knew how to use it. It was not the cheapest choice after all.

  • HT201210 My Music library is showing more songs than I actually have? How do I fix this?

    My actual music library on my phone is showing 100+ more songs than I actually have. But on my computer it's showing a completely different (less) number? Should I restore?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.      

  • Study: Oracle database software has more flaws than SQL Server

    Hi,
    Study: Oracle database software has more flaws than SQL Server
    Microsoft is often unfairly slammed for security issues, says NGSS
    http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9005383&intsrc=hm_list
    Post your comments on this stupid artical.
    Thanks!
    M T

    This is a case where size does matter.
    When they say errors reported on oracle are about 4 times more than the ones reported on SQL server they forgot to say something like: SQL server is able to do... what a 10%, a 5% or whatever of what oracle can do.
    Anyway who sayd this forgot to say that they worked with microsoft trying to improve SQL sever security features as well.
    http://www.nextgenss.com/press-releases/ngs-and-the-sql-server-security-essential-guide/
    They have a reason to say it. Who would say "I made a bad job!"
    In my opinion there is no way yet to compare oracle to any other DBMS under any point of view.

  • How to get items from a list that has more items than the List View Threshold?

    I'm using SharePoints object model and I'm trying to get all or a subset of the items from a SharePoint 2010 list which has many more items than the list view threshold (20,000+) using the SPList.GetItems() method. However no matter what I do the SPQueryThrottledException
    always seems to be thrown and I get no items back.
    I'm sorting based on the ID field, so it is indexed. I've tried setting the RowLimit property on the SPQuery object(had no effect). I tried specifying the RowLimit in the SPQuerys ViewXml property, but that still throws a throttle exception. I tried using the
    ContentIterator as defined here:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.server.utilities.contentiterator.aspx,
    but that still throws the query throttle exception. I tried specifying the RowLimit parameter in the ProcessListItems functions, as suggested by the first comment here:http://tomvangaever.be/blogv2/2011/05/contentiterator-very-large-lists/,
    but it still throws the query throttle exception. I tried using GetDataTable instead, still throws query throttle exception. I can't run this as admin, I can't raise the threshold limit, I can't raise the threshold limit temporarily, I can't override the lists
    throttling(i.e. list.EnableThrottling = false;), and I can't override the SPQuery(query.QueryThrottleMode = SPQueryThrottleOption.Override;). Does anyone know how to get items back in this situation or has anyone succesfully beaten the query throttle exception?
    Thanks.
    My Query:
    <OrderBy>
        <FieldRef Name='ID' Ascending='TRUE' />
    </OrderBy>
    <Where>

    </Where>
    My ViewXml:
    <View>
        <Query>
            <OrderBy><FieldRef Name='ID' Ascending='TRUE' /></OrderBy>
            <Where>

            </Where>
        </Query>
        <RowLimit>2000</RowLimit>
    </View>
    Thanks again.

    I was using code below to work with 700000+ items in the list.
    SPWeb oWebsite = SPContext.Current.Web;
    SPList oList = oWebsite.Lists["MyList"];
    SPQuery oQuery = new SPQuery();
    oQuery.RowLimit = 2000;
    int intIndex = 1;
    do
    SPListItemCollection collListItems = oList.GetItems(oQuery);
    foreach (SPListItem oListItem in collListItems)
    //do something oListItem["Title"].ToString()
    oQuery.ListItemCollectionPosition = collListItems.ListItemCollectionPosition;
    intIndex++;
    } while (oQuery.ListItemCollectionPosition != null);
    Oleg
    Hi Oleg, thanks for replying.
    The problem with the code you have is that your SPQuery object's QueryThrottleMode is set to default. If you run that code as a local admin no throttle limits will be applied, but if you're not admin you will still have the normal throttle limits. In my
    situation it won't be run as a local admin so the code you provided won't work. You can simulate my dilemma by setting the QuerryThrottleMode  property to SPQueryThrottleOption.Strict, and I'm sure you'll start to get SPQueryThrottledException's
    as well on that list of 700000+ items.
    Thanks anyway though

  • Sound output has more bass than old model

    Hello
    I've just purchased a new MAC PRO. I've noticed that the sound in the headphones has a lot more bass presence than the old model.
    Anyone else found this
    In iTunes, eq is Flat or off. I can't find anything else that would changed the sound quality
    Thanks

    "- 16-bit, 44.1Khz - the sound was not quite as "wide" as the 24 bit files, but the kick drum, bass guitar, and even the snare sounded markedly more full and punchy. The bass line could be heard un-interrupted pulsing at the bottom."
    The "wide" is perfectly understandable since our perception of depth and width relies a lot on low-level ambient cues that could easily be lost in a 16-bit system vs a 24-bit system.
    The other part is harder...just another man's theory here, but if we were to take this to extremes...say a 3-bit system: off, soft and loud.
    It would be true then that anything over a certain input level threshhold would be assigned as a "loud" bit. Could that make certain characteristics and sounds appear more "punchy"? Obviously, there are 2 to the 16th power levels of resolution in a 16-bit byte, but I'm just wondering if this concept could affect the perception more so than with a 24-bit system.
    Another factor to consider is that 12-bit systems would generally have more distortion in the analog section than a high-end 24-bit converter. Distortion can definitely affect the perception of both loudness and 'punchiness'. Remember, the signal goes through analog circuits before it hits the converter chip. That analog portion is pretty critical to how the system sounds.
    That's why two a/d converters can use the same converter chips and even the same clocks, but still sound different.

  • IP address has more numbers than Mac allows

    Hi,
    I'm trying to hook up a security camera system (for the barn), and I'm having trouble - I had it set up last year, can't remember what I did. Anyway, the unit hooks up to a router (the AE base station via ethernet), and I'm trying to use a PC laptop to watch from the house - I was given an IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, but it seems like it's more numbers than Mac likes. Also, I am trying to Port Map, since that's what the instructions say (5000 to 5003), but have no idea how to do this.
    Help?

    When setting up port mapping in a router you only use the last number (.xxx) on the right of the IP address. The first three numbers (xxx.xxx.xxx) are the same for all devices connected to a router.

  • Movie files take up more space than they should

    Hi! I'm new to iDVD, and I wanted to take about 20 .mp4 files and put them on a DVD that a DVD player hooked to my TV will be able to read. The combined size of all the files is under 4GB and will fit on a burnable DVD. But when I drag them into iDVD, it only lets me have like 5 before it says it is full. Why is this happening? Why should the video take up more space than the file's actual size? If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it!

    iDVD works on time and NOT on RAW file size!!
    All video is converted to MPG-2 by the encoding process in iDVD. With a single layer disc, you can get UP TO 60 minutes of content in Best Performance mode and UP TO 120 minutes in Best Quality mode.
