My shuffle 2nd generation does not recognize some podcast in m4a format.

My shuffle does not recognize podcast form The Economist in m4a format. Nevertheless, it plays those fom T.E. in mp3 format, as well as many others podcast in m4a format w/o any problem.

If there is something not quite right about the iPod shuffle, click on the Restore button. This will restore the iPod to its original settings. If that does not work or is inaccessible, try the iPod Reset Utility.

Both procedures will erase the iPod.

Ipod Shuffle (2nd Gen) Does Not Recognize Songs

My Ipod Shuffle (2nd Gen) does not recognize the songs that are loaded on it. When I turn it on after a full charge the green light stays on for about 5 seconds then turns off. When I press play, the colors flash orange and green indicating there are no songs loaded. I've tried all the recommendations and also seen that people with similar problems have not been able to resolve the problem as well. I've seen some cases where the use of the Ipod Rest Utility is recommended however I have Vista on my PC and there is no version available for that o/s that I could find. Does anyone have any other suggestions. Thanks.
Ipod Shuffle (2nd Gen) Windows Vista

I changed the iPod to Disk mode and it just blinks orange while it is connected to the PC. It says that it is synched on the PC screen but I thought the blinking orange light means that it isn't. I took it back out of disk mode. The original problem still exists...when I turn it on, the green light stays lit for 5 seconds then there's no light at all....when I press play the lights alternate orange and green indicating no music is loaded which is wrong since it shows all my songs that are loaded when it is connected to my PC. What a mess.

HT1481 ipod shuffle 2nd generation, does not show up in window when plugged into itunes. Also, does not charge(no light comes on).

I have a ipod shuffle (2nd generation) that won't light up when plugged in to the power adapter. I have only used it a few times since I purchased it years ago. Also, when I plug it into my computer with itunes running, it isn't recognized at all, as in nothing happens when I plug the usb cable with ipod attached and on to it. Any help would be much appreciated.

but there is another unspecified error.
What is that error?
Are you sure she has a Shuffle? You mentioned a Sad Face.. that would indicate that the iPod has a display, which a Shuffle does not.

HT1238 ipod shuffle 2nd generation does not appear in Reset Utility window.

Hi there! I'm seeking some advice for repairing an old ipod shuffle.
My mom's 2nd generation iPod shuffle suddenly will not appear on her computer. She is using windows vista (sad face). I ran all the reccommeded troubleshooting suggestions, but still can't repair the disk.
When connected to the original computer (windows vista), the charging light comes on but the disk does not appear anywhere on the computer. I ran the diagnostics and it apparently has the most updated software, but there is another unspecified error.
When I tried to run the repair suggestions on my own computer, i can't get the disk to show anywhere....the charging light will not even come on.
Any other suggestions I might have overlooked?

HT2305 Since updating my laptop from Windows Vista to Windows 7, my Ipod Shuffle, 3rd generation does not recognize last 3 playlist names; it calls them out as "playlist 3, playlist 4 -- even though in the panel the names are showing just fine. The music

I have recently updated my laptop from Windows Vista to Windows 7. I have just added three new playlists to my Ipod Shuffle, 3rd generation. On the panel in ITunes in view on the computer, all looks fine and music plays. However, after syncing a million times, when clicking to "hear" the playlists, the voice will call out all the old playlists just fine - except for the 3 new ones I've added; it calls them out as "playlist 3, playlist 8, or "purchased". All software for the ITunes has been updated as of the moment. Why would switching from Vista to Windows 7 cause this frustrating issue? All help appreciated.

From page 23 of your iPod's User Guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
If VoiceOver is disabled in iTunes, you hear an abbreviated menu of playlists in numbered order, but not by name (for example, “Playlist 1, Playlist 2,” and so on).
So you'll want to make sure VoiceOver is enabled to correct this.

My iPod touch 2nd generation does not sync my contacts. I only have iCloud contacts in my address book. How can i sync that?

My iPod touch 2nd generation does not sync my contacts. I only have iCloud contacts in my address book. How can i sync that?

I do not fully understand you question. To use iCloud on an iOS device requires iOS 5 and the 2G only goes to iOS 4.1.2 and thysyu can't access iCloud, including contacts.
Maybe you could sync the iCloud contacts with anopther program and sync that program with the 2G iPod.
The following smple states the following for Contacts:
iCloud: What if my device or computer doesn't meet iCloud system requirements?
Contacts
If you want to check your iCloud Contacts, you can do so by visiting icloud.com from a Mac or PC (as long as it meets the browser system requirements for icloud.com).

Latest Lithroom 5.6 does not recognize my .cr2 raw file format and Windows 7 it asociates with my older raw plug in in Ps CS5.5. I am not able to change default program for .cr2 in the properties pannel...
every new released update of Lr from v 5.2 changed somethin in my Windows 7 Professional settings. I am stucked. Can somebody help me please? Many thanks. Andrej

Hi Jim,
yes after I imported my .cr2 raw files into new catalog it started to work. Windows 7 still does not recognize them but I can edit them as you said within the Lr5.6 and then export them into .psd or .dng files...as needed.
I bought Lr5 only because I got present - my new camera Cannon 70D and because my older Photoshop CS5.5 raw plugin does not recognize. cr2 files.
Many thanks for your help.
Andrej.

CS4 does not recognize some DNGs

My Panasonic GK2 creates raw files as RW2. I use (on my Mac) LightRoom 3.6 to import, convert to DNG and develop the files.
Photoshop CS4 Camera Raw 5.0 for Mac had been processing these without a problem. As of about 30 h. ago, it appears that my system no longer recognizes this format. DNG's from my Panasonic camera are greyed-out in Finder. In Adobe Bridge CS4 preview pane they are displayed with the DNG icon.
Please advise if update for Camera Raw is available, and if you think that might solve thie issue.
OTOH, believe I now have a viable work-around: after editing in LightRoom, export to PSD for further exiting in PS-CS4.

OK thanks, Station_two; I'm currently on a much older version of ACR. Downloading now.
See answer to next post regarding current results.
I used to see occasional update links automatically served, I believe, but could just as well be thiniking of other products. Surprised these do not come to us automatically.
============= Updated Posting ==============
Mac OSX 10.8.3 is not happy with the file just downloaded, Camera_Raw_5_7.zip.
Zip archive contains two files, Camera Raw.plugin ("Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."), and cameraprofiles.mpkg ("...can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers").
I might be able to set back my preferences to allow the second to be installed, if that is the correct procedure. What do you think?
Not sure I mentioned this but I am still able process all DNGs using the Development tab of Lightroom 3. From there I can easily export to PSD for further editing in PS when needed. Also found that LR has a good print routine.
Still, a bit of a mystery why SOME of the Panasonic DNGs can be opened and others, of similar vintage, cannot.

IPod Shuffle (2nd G) does not respond

My iPod Shuffle (2nd G) is not responding. First no response at all but after I reset it its green light is on no matther what I do. However, it won't play music or is not recognized by my iBook. My OS and iTunes are both the latest ones and I even reinstalled iTunes.
I remember that last time I had problems and restored it. But now I cannot do so because it does not appear on the desktop.
Please give me suggestions.
Thank you,

1. run the Reset Utility on it.
2. If no success, repeat...
3. if still no success, take to an Apple Store, it's still under warranty.

Ipod shuffle 2nd gen does not charge on new 5W USB power adapter

Hi,
my perfectly functional ipod shuffle 2nd gen with original dock will not charge with the new Continental Europe 5W USB power adapter, even though the specs of the power adapter include the 2nd generation shuffle. Shuffle will blink orange three times, longer than normal blinking, and then do nothing. probably nothing I can do about it, but worth a note. The US model of the new 5W adapter does not include the 2nd gen shuffle, so maybe it is an error on the apple specs page.
Maybe the 2nd gen needs more than 5W to charge?

indeed, it needs the bigger 12 Watt Adapter and the apple site is wrong.

ITunes does not recognize some iPhoto nested folder level ...

Hi,
Just for informative purpose, in case it can help. In iPhoto my albums are nested in folders. Sometimes they have 2 or 3 level deep. iTunes does not seem to recognize some nested folder level in my iPhoto albums ...
The Library items in the picture below represents some second level folders. They are displayed has albums while in fact they are folders. The funny part is that not all 2nd level nested does that. Some are recognize some other not
The workaround is to recreate the folders ....

LMAO. I've had this IPOD for 2.5 years and NEVER had a problem. Update the software and I have problems
looks like I will be getting something else, besides anymore apple products.
WINAMP and WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER work just fine with all of my files, but Itunes is having problem and the Ipod too
and only after the last update...
no way do I waste money again for this type of headache

DVD drive does not recognize some media on Satellite A30-514

I own a Satellite A30-514 laptop with Microsoft xp OS. Just lately, some DVD's (not games) will not play from the drive. some do some don't. It is not a region problem - they are all region 2. Windows does not read the disc when it is inserted and does not register a disc in the drive when I show 'my computer'. CD's all play normally. Could this be a driver (internal) issue or is my DVD CD combo just too old now?
Thanks Marie.

Hi
To give you some precise answer it will be interesting to know which DVDs are not readable. Meaning of word 'some media' is to general and not helpful to understand the problem.
Satellite A30 is pretty old notebook model and it is possible that ODD functionality is not good anymore. You can try to clean the lens.

My ipod shuffle (1st generation) does not power on

my ipod shuffle does not power on. Hence, it does not connect to Itunes (tried latest version) also. I cannot reset it also.

A 1st gen shuffle would not be under warranty (one year from purchase) or AppleCare if purchased (total of two years).
There's not much you can do... A few years ago, I went on eBay and bought a bunch of broken 1st gen shuffles. That's how I know the most common failure is the USB connector. But I managed to swap parts to get a few working ones (I still use one of them today - favorite and best sounding shuffle model). I still have plenty of spare parts, except for that USB connector. If I had 10 of those parts (that worked), I could probably assemble 10 working shuffles.
If you are good at such things, this web site has the guides.
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Shuffle_1st_Generation
It's small and delicate on the inside, but fairly simple in design. It's small, but not "microscopic" like the current shuffle.

Ipod shuffle (2nd Generation) is not being recognized by my MacBook Pro or itunes:

I was recently given my friends old ipod shuffle, but it is not being recognized by my computer at all, is there something that I can do?

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting? Did he give you the cable that was originally included witht the Shuffle? I ask because if you are using a 3G/4G cable it will not work with the 2G Shuffle.
Have you worked through all the sugguestions here as necessary?
