On-the-go function stopped working. Suggestions?

Hi, I have an 80 GB Ipod classic, and since I last synced it with my computer, the "on-the-go" function for creating playlists has stopped working.  It only works now from the library--in other words, I can add a song from the library, but cannot add a song as it's playing.  I tried resetting but this didn't solve the problem.  I'm afraid to restore it to factory settings, because, even with backing up, itunes always seems to delete or lose things.  Any suggestions?  Thanks so much.

Hi, is there any way to make the on-the-go function work in now playing screen? I think this will be more useful when you listen a song and you like it, you can immediately put it in on-the-go list.
Thanks.

    Hi, EJ13. 
    I see you are having issues with backing up you iPhone and have tried a couple troubleshooting steps.  There are a couple more steps I could recommend in the article below.

  • Autofill function stopped working- Suggestions?

    MacBookPro, OS X - 10.8.5
    Why did my Autofill function stop working? It has always worked fine, but now when I click on the Autofill box that pops up when needed, the box turns blue and then locks on the screen.  No autofill function occurs, the box simply freezes in that screen location and stays there in front screen.  All other functions continue, but the pop-up box remains highlighted blue and frozen in place on the screen.  I can't close it or put behind other windows.  I need to close Safari to eliminate the Autofill pop-up box. 
    Open for suggestions, please.
    Thanks,
    Homey

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Need help with magic trackpad.  some touch functions stopped working.  battery full and all touch options checked appropriately.  whats the deal?

    i have tried everything but the tap functions stopped working.  any ideas?

    Update: I mucked about more after making this post; I installed gnome-alsa-mixer and checked the "internal mic" option and "Auto-Mute mode" (both were off), after this my headphone output works again, and does the built-in microphone (!)
    I have no idea how I ended up in this "broken" situation, or even what this option does, or how to use it without gnome-alsa-mixer (I had to install 15 packages to get this, as I normally don't use gnome)... Sound on Linux still seems no better than when I started using it 15 years ago :-( (I spent about 5 hours on this...)

    Great!
    Now in Terminal at the $ prompt type   sudo python <leave a space after that>  Do not press enter or return yet.
    Drag and drop "license recover.py" into the Terminal window, then press enter or return.
    You should see this result:    Confirm that you do.

  • HT201401 Vibrate function stopped working! Help!!

    I have the iphone 3gs and i woke up one morning and it was laying on my bed and it fell of hit the carpet and seemed fine but then vibrate function stopped working now i have seen that giving it a 'whack or a knock' may put it back in place but it hasnt any suggestions as to what i could do or if i was to get it fixed what would need fixing and how much would it cost thanks?!

    Hi pokestate73.
    Have you tried resetting the iPhone? Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button until the Power Off slide screen appears, disappears, and then the Apple logo appears. Then let go of the buttons.
    If that doesn't work, you'll need to try restoring the iPhone in iTunes.
    If you've already tried these steps, you may need to make an appointment at your local Genius Bar. The vibration mechanism may have died.

    Same exact thing with me.  And no help from apple.  Just dropped nearly $600 and cannot get a decent working setup.
    Apple's only suggestion was to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime, and re-install... of course (the I.T. Crowd tactic).
    The crash happens only on iTunes store access.

  • I get the "firefox has stopped working" message after closing browser

    Hello.
    My problem is that when I close the FireFox browser I get the "FireFox has stopped working" message. It's pretty annoying. I've read some other posts here that described a similar problem and have tried some of the suggestions in them including:
    A clean install, a browser reset, running in safe mode, unchecking hardware acceleration, disabling extentions and plugins one at a time, uninstalling my antivirus (avast), rolling back to version 23.01 and checking run in compatibility mode that someone claimed helped them. None of this was effective.
    It seems like after a computer restart the browser will be ok for 2-4 closings and then it will start with the message on every closing. Also, after I uninstalled avast it was good for 6 closings. Rolling back also gave me about 6 message free closings. But then the messages start and doesn't stop.
    Is there anything else I can try? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    One thing is for sure, and that is if the only page i visit is the Google homepage (not logged in) or this site (mozilla forum), the problem does not occur, ever. I can't make it happen.
    If i visit yahoo.com (not logged in) (or ighome.com, logged in), as examples, it happens every time.

  • Copy and paste function stopped working?

    The copy and paste function stopped working on my laptop (ibook g4, OSX 10.3.9). It does not work in any applications, tried MS word, safari, preview.
    How do I recover this function?
    Thanks.

    Hi Magno2002
    Your Finder may have lost contact with the clipboard, so try this.
    In ~/library/preferences locate these two files and trash them
    com.apple.finder.plist
    com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    To re-establish them, log out and log back in again.
    You will need to reset your finder and sidebar as you had them before.

  • PDFMaker Functions stopped working

    I have a user that is running Windows 7 32-bit and is working with Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.1.2.
    About a week ago, all the PDFMaker functions were working correctly, now only 2 of them work.
    Automatic updates are turned off as are Windows Updates.
    The user is working with Office 2007 and I have tried saving the documents as .doc and .docx with the same result.
    The two that still work are:
    Open Word Document, Click File, Print and Print to Adobe PDF
    Open Word Document, Click Acrobat, and click Create PDF
    The two options that no longer work are:
    In windows explorer, right click the document and click Create Acrobat PDF.
    Open Adobe Acrobat, click Create PDF and Click from File.
    Both of these options result in "An unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF".
    I have tried repair and reinstalled and tried another user account.
    I have done all the suggestions on the following page and none of it is working.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/unexpected-error-occurred-or-pdfmaker.html
    Whilst the user is currently using the working options, they would much prefer to right click the document and click Create Acrobat PDF. Any suggestions?

    We are having exactly same issue with same Windows/Office versions but with Adobe Acrobat Standard 10.1.9 instead. Our user reported the issue coming up suddenly few days ago. No changes has been made to the system prior to that.
    I have tried re-installing Acrobat/cleaning the registry and even re-creating the local user profile with no success. The user definitely needs the right click function as she need to convert multiple doc files at once.
    Assistance would be much appreciated.
