No live playlist updating since software upgrade...

Since upgrading the iPod mini software to version 1.4 my playlists have not been updating automatically when I use my iPod. Automatic updates are set in the iPod menu, the playlists are instructed not to play songs played in the last week and live updating is checked in the smart playlists.
Is there anything more I can do or is this a problem with version 1.4? Can I revert back to 1.3?

Hi, Simon!
1. Since your iPod software and iPod itself are not automatically updating, how about manually updating them? Have you tried that?? Click "File" and go down to "Update ipod".
2. What was it you updated, iTunes, iPod updater or both?? Because I believe after you update iPod updater it'll tell you to plug the iPod to the A/C adapter and into the wall. If you haven't updated the iPod updater then you might wanna do this, it might solve the problem.
3. I'm not sure if you can revert back to 1.3, I apologize I can't help you on that.

  • "Recently Added" has not updated since I upgraded

    My "Recently Added" playlist hasn't updated since I upgraded Friday afternoon. I cannot find any user setting that allows you to change this or set up your own.
    I find the "Recently Added" section an easy way to play together the most recently downloaded podcasts. Now, nothing updates.

    i've had the exact same problem since i upgraded. Not just the Recently Added not working, but none of the new music I download will import or add to the library.

  • IPod Touch skips, stutters, glitches through songs since software upgrade!

    Hi everyone,
    *Since I upgraded my iPod Touch* to the latest available software update +(for the 1st Gen is 3.1.3)+, it has become *unable to properly play any music encoded above 128kbps*. Before the upgrade, my iPod could play music encoded in any higher bitrates like a champ! All the way to 320kbps, variable, even Apple Lossless format used to play flawlessly.
    Suddenly after the last *firmware update*, most of the songs in my iPod Touch would *skip, glitch and garble, making electronic glitches and annoying noises* for no apparent reason. On occasion, the iPod would even *add several second of silence in the middle of random songs*. It's bizarre!
    It definitely took me a while to figure it out, and spent weeks testing and researching what could be the problem. It was truly driving me nuts! The result of all these tests was clear: the *iPod Touch now CHOKES on any music file encoded higher than 128 kbps ACC*. Truly pathetic for such an expensive little jukebox. Even the early MP3 players I owned 10 years ago were able to play variable rate MP3 files without a glitch. *_This is a major bug that needs to be solved_*.
    For those interested, I did the following tests through my weeks of research to find out the culprit to this problem:
    - - - Reinstalled the device software
    - - - Reformatted the device, then updated the software
    - - - Uninstalled all apps, reinstalled and tested my music after reinstalling each app
    - - - Disabled Wi-Fi (no difference)
    - - - Copied over my music library from scratch, several times (it was painful)
    - - - Reformatted a few albums in different bitrates, from 96kbps, all the way to 320kbps, both in constant and variable rates, and tested them one by one. This took days.
    In the end, there is one thing that was consistently clear: *any songs encoded over 128kbps would skip, glitch and sound corrupted. Time after time*. All those music files I had encoded at higher rates +(192 kbps, variable 240 kbps and beyond)+ would make the iPod choke.
    There is one temporary solution to this mess, but it involves reducing the quality of your music files: The only way I can now play my music collection in my iPod Touch without skips and glitches is by downconverting my files to the now *obsolete 128kbps*. Only when I converted my music to 128kbps, the annoying skips and glitches stopped. For an audiophile like myself, this was an absolutely painful decision, as I can tell the *obvious loss in quality and nuance in my music files since i had to downconvert them*.
    Funny: this skipping problem *also affects any files purchased from iTunes* +(encoded at 240 kbps variable rate)+. Should I ask for my money back, Apple?
    I find this irritating and painful, since *the ONE THING the iPod is supposed to do well* (aside from apps, games, and web browsing) *is to PLAY AUDIO AND MUSIC FILES*.
    I spent a lot of money on this machine, and until recently it worked like magic; I just wished it played music again like it's supposed to. It's what the iPod was built to do. *Apple: Please fix the software!*
    I wonder if there's a forum where I could post my detailed findings, so Apple engineers can take note of this *MAJOR BUG*.
    PS: I have recently learned this is a very common bug, and tons of people are reaching out telling me they are experiencing the same annoying problems. Furthermore, *this seems to affect not just the 1st Gen, but ALL generations of the iPod Touch*. It's a *widespread software issue* that was not properly addressed in the latest software upgrade. I'm starting to worry about Apple's quality assurance process.

    Hi everyone. Thanks to a tip in another forum, I think I had a breakthrough regarding this problem. I have the strong suspicion it's not the software for the iPod Touch, but instead, the problem comes from *iTunes and how it handles USB 2.0 transfers*.
    To make a long story short, all your *music that's encoded above 128 kbps gets corrupted when you transfer it to your Touch from iTunes through your USB 2.0 connection*. That's where the problem is!
    I performed this simple test:
    *PART 1 - WIFI*
    - I connected my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi to the iTunes Store. Bought an album encoded at a very high bitrate (Coldplay's "Viva la Vida", encoded at 256KBPS).
    - Downloaded the Coldplay album directly to my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
    - Tested every song in the album, and they all played flawlessly.
    *PART 2 - USB 2.0*
    - Now, I erased the Coldplay album from my iPod Touch.
    - Connected my iPod Touch to my computer, and downloaded the album again via iTunes. I copied the very same album to my iPod Touch, this time using the USB 2.0 connection.
    - I tested every song in the album. Guess what: most of them are corrupted, skipping, glitching, making garbled noises.
    I think a reached a minor "eureka" moment. *It's not the iPod Touch software: It's iTunes, and how iTunes deals with your USB 2.0 connection*.
    Now, I'm not an engineer, and I don't know how to fix this problem. I wonder if there's anyone out there there that knows why high bitrate files get corrupted during the file transfer. Hope anyone can shed some additional light on this issue, so we can find a solution.

  • Why is my iphone 3g slower since software upgrade...

    I know other people who have complained about the same thing that the 3g is slower since the software upgrade a few months back. Why? Everything on the phone is a tad slower since the upgrade. Weren't upgrades designed to improve the performance, not decrease it?

    are you up to date with the siftware?
    do you have a lot of memory left?
    have you tried a hard reset? a reset network settings? a restore?
    all can be done to try to resolve the issue, try those first before giving up

  • BlackBerry Q10 bluetooth issues since software upgrade

    I have a BBQ10 and a chevy sonic with mylink. UP until Monday night they paired fine everything worked and then I had a software upgrade on my BlackBerry. It installed just fine no issues there. Now when I try to make/receive calls while using bluetooth in the car my phone has to be using speaker. Handset doesn't work, nor does bluetooth. The first time I start car up and the devices pair I can get the bluetooth to ask me "what would u like to do" I can get all the way to connecting to the call. As soon as call is connected it tells me it's going into private mode. This is the point where only the speaker on the phone itself will work. I can not talk via bluetooth or "handset" speaker only or I don't hear people but they hear me. I know it's not an issue with the mylink in car I paired my mum's bold and everything works as it should. Suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Problem solved. Changed phone name. Deleted pairing between phone and car bluetooth rebooted phone turned car off and back on. Repaired devices and seems to be fine now

  • Smart playlists are not updating since the upgrade

    4 days ago I upgraded to the new version of iTunes.  Now my smart playlists have stopped updating and when I try to add new ones they are completely empty.  These are vital to my work and contain information it would take a long time every single day to replicate and check.  Please help.

    Perhaps it would help if you set out exactly what you have in your "Edit Rules" box and also what you are trying to achieve.

  • Odd error (-3001) when using Software Update since Leopard upgrade

    Whenever I try to install anything that shows up in Software Update now, I get this error:
    You do not have appropriate access privileges.
    A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.
    However, I AM connected to the Internet, and I AM an Admin. I should have no problems doing this, and the issue only tarted when I installed Leopard. Anyone know of a fix?

    Anyone have any ideas about this one? Still can't do a software update.

  • TS2972 Home Sharing, Bookmark update & reading list all stopped syncing since software upgrade

    After Apple TV, iTunes and phone update nothing will sync with my PC!!

    Home Sharing is working perfectly fine for me, and I'm quite sure many others. I'm using Windows 7, a Linksys WRT54G router with WPA2 security enabled, and iTunes 10.1.2. It would help if you could answer a few questions:
    1- Let's start with the obvious -- what version iTunes are you using? (you need 10.1 but didn't say)
    2- Have you enabled Home Sharing on your computer and ATV?
    3- What router make and model are you using? I don't know of specific issues here, but others may.
    4- Is the ATV hooked up to your router via ethernet, or wireless? If wireless, try ethernet at least temporarily if you can, just to narrow down the problem as it may be a wireless configuration in your router's settings.
    5- Using the Remote App on your iPhone, can you control the ATV? Or, can you only stream audio to ATV from your iPhone? If Remote works, can you get to YouTube, Netflix, or the iTunes store and successfully play any content?

  • Can't add music since software upgrade

    Since upgrading ipod software to 2.2.1, I get a 'The ipod cannot be synced, the device timed out message' straight away.
    Resarting and having the latest version of itunes hasn't helped at all. If somebody could help that would be great because I'm missing my music!

    Do you mean USB hub? I usually use a 4 port (not sure of the speed) USB hub which has always worked fine when syncing. When I started having problems I switched to using the main USB port (higher speed and better connection?) which didn't make any difference at all.
    Should have mentioned earlier I tried restoring so my last comment refers to another unsuccessful attempt at restoring.

  • Can't purchase movie since software upgrade

    I just upgraded my apple TV to the newest software version. I also upgraded my itunes and my iphone. I ran the iphone controller app for my iphone. I know there was a lot that changed. Everything is running current software and I now can not purchase a movie. I get an error message telling me that my email address is incorrect in itunes. My email address is correct both in my AppleTV settings as well as itunes. There are some movie I can rent, but not all. Again, the error message tells me I have a bad email address. I have checked and it is correct on all my devices.
    Anyone have any suggestions on what to do so I can buy movies again.

  • 2014 Lexus won't charge iPhone since software upgrade

    I have a 2014 lexus rx350. At first it charged and played my music with display.....GREAT, then I upgraded iOS,now, no charging, no display. When plugged in via USB, it actually blinks and begins to discharge the phone. Please help.  I called Apple, they blame it on Lexus. i called Lexus, they said the problem is Apple.  Now neither port will charge The phone, lighter or USB.

    Are you using an Apple cable?  If not an Apple branded one, is it certified as Made for iPhone?  Cable compatibility can become an issue with non-certified cables when you do an iOS update.  If it is not charging even via the lighter, sounds like a cable issue.
    If you are using an Apple or Apple-certified cable, have you tried a different one in case this one is damaged?  How about the iPhone itself, have you tried a Reset?  Restore?
