N96 - too much music, cant choose ring tone

is it me, or do they need to change the software slightly to not look for all music when you want to choose a ring tone in a profile setting... i have over 2000 music files and its impossible to find a ring tone youve uploaded to it, or one of the pre installed nokia ones for messages or alarms etc... i know you can start typing to search, but thats no good if you want to browse a short list or if you dont know the name of it...
is there a change request somewhere to send to nokia?

Does this still happen after re-booting the device?
If so i would remove at least half of all your tracks as i have heard of this many times on other devices such as the N95 and the 8GB version.

Too much music?

Hi.
I've been trying to import all the music I have stored on my computer to iTunes, but somehow iTunes select only a part of it. Sometimes an error shows too, saying iTunes failed importing/copying :C-disc or something. Could it be that I have too much music for iTunes to handle? I've got all my music in the My Music-folder, and it's grown to about 12GB... A lot, but should that really be a problem?
I've tried importing files not choosing the 'import folder' but the other option, and I've read in this forum that in the old versions you could import several files in one go that way. I can only import one at a time. iTunes seems screwed up...
I could really need some help with this, because as it is now, my iPod is empty...

12 gigs is not too much for iTunes.
By any chance, if you look in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General, do you have "Copy files to iTunes Music Folder..." checked? If so, uncheck it and try again. (If you are short of free hard drive space, that option will have trouble operating.)

Make sure your own music files are saved in the proper folder (Digital sounds) whether in your memory card or the phone memory, the location should still be:
Sound Clips > Digital Sounds.
If your songs/mp3s are saved anywhere else, it will not show up as a selectable ringing tone.
You can move your songs through File Manager on your phone if they are in the wrong location (Options > Move to folder).
Hope that clarifies it for you.

How much is too much music on itunes?

im uploading a lot of music onto my itunes, for two different ipods, and i dont know if i put too much music on if there will be a lag or anything
can someone please tell me how much music a computer can take before significantly slowing down?

As long as there's at least 1GB of space free on the hard disk at all times and the iTunes library isn't stored on the Finder's desktop, you shouldn't experience a major slowdown regardless of how big the iTunes library gets.

How to sync when you have too much music

I have too much music on my computer to sync onto my IPAD. How do I make lists only and where do I change the settings?

You can create playlists on your computer's iTunes via File > New Playlist or File > New Smart Playlist . Smart playlists can be updated automatically by iTunes e.g. you can create smart playlists that contain a particular music genre and they will be updated automatically if you add music of that genre to iTunes, or you might have a smart playlist of 5* rated tracks etc
When you the sync music to the iPad, then on the device's Music tab you can select which playlist(s) to sync to the iPad

How can i use my music as a ringing tone??

how can i use my music as a ringing tone??

I came across a GREAT program: iRinger.net. It's a free download and really easy (and Fun) to use!
I recommend watching the Instructional Video on the homepage that shows you exactly how to use it. Basically, you upload a song to the program, edit any portion of it that you like to a 40 second or less tone, then export it to iTunes. When you sync your phone w/ iTunes, it gets saved along with the rest of your ringtones. I had a blast last night creating about a dozen or so!

I can no longer sync music, books and ring tones

I recently updated my iTunes, and something has changed. I can sync music and audio books - but it erases my ring tones. I noticed this, and attempted to sync my ring tones -- only to lose all of my music and audio books. I have the "manually manage music and videos" box checked (though the check keeps disappearing). This is so frustrating! Anyone know what's going on?

Here is a support article with additional troubleshooting steps you should try:

Can someone tell me if there is a way to sync address book, calendar and mail ONLY, no music from Itunes to Iphone 4s from my Imac G5, OS 10.5.8? I bought a 16 GB and have too much music and no icloud on my machine (or my ipod 5th gen)

I was told I CANNOT only sync part of my music from my Imac Itunes, and since I have an ipod and itunes with the music, I don't really need it on my iphone, but if I sync all the rest, is it going to sync the music too! It is too much data if it does!! And did Icloud take the place of "mobile me". If so can that be used to get some music if I want to from my hard drive mac or ipod?

You were told wrong. You can sync only what you want to sync.
Yes, iCloud is taking place of Mobile Me over time. MM will be turned off in June of next year.
With iCloud, you can store the music in the cloud and download the tracks that you want to listen to without having to sync to your iTunes.

Can you overload iTunes w/too much music?

I have over 21000 tracks in my iTunes library, and I'm wondering if there is an upper limit of how many tracks iTunes can handle? My question is not regarding storage - I have an external drive with tons of space. My question is regarding the program itself - in recent months I have noticed that the program is running more and more slowly. It does not crash, but it tends to "think" more. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm also trying to determine how large of a library iTunes can handle and how large some of the largest libraries out there are. I am currently running 46,000 items in my main library on the internal drive (total size around 340Gigs) and am having no problems at all with it. I have a couple of other separate libraries totaling around another 150GB that I'd like to combine with my main one currently at 340GB which would bring me up to about 500GB but have some concerns about how a library that big would perform.
I recently upgraded my 5 year old 1GHz iMac to a new 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme iMac with 2GB ram, mostly because my growing iTunes library was too much of a drag on the slower processor. Clearly the bigger the library the more processor power and ram you need.
I run my library off my internal 750GB drive and use Apple Backup to back up the entire internal drive weekly to a 1TB external drive, so I always have a recent copy in case of drive failure.
I'd like to know anecdotally how large other people's extra large libraries are -- is anyone successfully running libraries bigger than 500GB, 700GB, 1TB?? I imagine there are mega users out there or possibly people using iTunes for commercial or professional applications that require jumbo libraries.

Cant hear ringer tone when calling others nor can hear who im calling

okay so everytime i make a call for the frist time i cant hear the ringer tone nor can hear the person im calling.

thanks!

I have the same problem, but I am sorry to say that I have no idea why it happens.

Too much music, too little ipod

Hi,
I have about 140 gig of music on my imac. I have a big ipod classic and have no problems. My husband has an 8g ipod touch. Is there any other way to pick and save music for this little bugger other than going through the entire library and checking each song? This can take days with this much music.
Thanks!

It's easier to use playlists and select to sync only selected playlists to your husband's iPod (in the Music tab). You can use playlists you already have, or make a new playlist just for him. You can drag whole albums or individual songs to his playlists. You can easily change his playlists by adding or deleting songs at will without affecting your library. This avoids problems with unchecked songs not playing in iTunes or on your iPod Classic.

ITunes Crash, Too Much Music?

First of all, I was listening to my iTunes with my iPod not having fully updated with iTunes, meaning, not having gotten the latest iTunes music onto the Mini iPod.
Second of all, I deleted about half of my library right before the occurrence.
Then I got a huge file from a friend of mine, containg a lot of music from one artist, two gigabytes worth to be specific. I then transferred the file to my iTunes Music folder, where all of the music is. Then, I went to the Add a Folder option under iTunes, and added the whole Folder of music.
And it worked, it began to play and such.
So I connected my iPod, which can only hold about 4 gigabytes(?), while my iTunes was functioning with about 4.4 Gigabytes worth of information.
Then the entire program froze when I told iTunes to update my iPod and not only remove the old files I had deleted, but as well include the many files I had just added.
Any idea as to what I should do now? It'll take me a long time to sift through the music I just recieved and pick out which ones I wish to delete, so is it possible to pick and choose which music I don't want on my iPod? Furthermore, without freezing iTunes when I connect my iPod to accept all of that music?
Any help would be much appreciated.

RealityMatter:
I think that firstly you should uncheck all of the songs/podcasts/etc. and simply update the iPod so that it has no music. Then you should divide the massive amount of files by 100 or 150 songs at a time and upload them onto your iPod. Seperating the tasks may help with the problem because it won't overload the system by attempting to do too many things at once. If I am wrong with this idea, please, someone correct me. But that is what I would do.
