Once and for all, how does one stop losing music on IPOD TOUCH? WHAT settings do you people use to stop losing music? Does anybody have any help with this? Does any body have any help at all? APPLE offers no help!!!!!!!!!

I constantly loss my music!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I constantly loss my music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help to stop this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First of all, is the music only disappearing from your iPod, or from your iTunes Library as well?
From your other thread, I gather you swap between Manually Managing and Syncing. This is a bad idea, it will lead to confusion on your part about what should be on the iPod. You'll make a choice that iTunes later overrides - because you've told it to. Choose one method or the other, not both.
Peresonally, I recommend using the iTunes Sync process. Using Sync will not prevent you from deciding what's on your iPod. You will still have a free and full choice in that. The Sync process will however, make it far easier for you to put everything back onto your iPod in the event that you need to Restore your iPod, or when you replace this iPod with a newer one.
Back to your issue though. Is the music, missing from your iPod, still in your Library?

  • How does one delete specific photos from ipod touch 2nd gen (with ios 4.2.1)?

    I would like to delete some photos from my ipod touch 2g, ios 4.2.1, but I can't just sync it to my (new) computer because then all of them would get deleted because I don't have the photos that I have on my ipod on my new computer. Help!?
    Thanks

    - You can email the ones you want to retain and the restore the the iPod on the the new computer
    - You can use a third-party like PhoneView or TouchCopy (both paid) and maybe the free
    iFunBox for Mac | File Manager, Browser, Explorer, Transferer for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    tio copy them to the computer.

    1 gig of Mushkin duel chan. ddr 400

    The ram I have is duel chan. I have no idea what this means  Or what the ram needs to be set to is it faster than non duel ddr? 

    Quote from: igmox
    it is like water flowing through two parallel pipes instead of one.

    Another example you could think of duel channel memory could be like a 2 lane motorway.  You close one lane and cars can only go down 1 lane, but when you open another lane up thats another path for the cars to travel

    Yes your Power supply has 24 pin atx connector and also its a ATx2.0, which means its SLI/PCI-E Complient

  • I have photos in a DVD. In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them? Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing? If not, is there any application with this functionality? I dont't like pre-visualization for photos.

    I have photos in a DVD. In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them? Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing? If not, is there any application with this functionality? I need an app that allows me to navigate through the photos without selecting all of them. I realy dont't like pre-visualization for photos...

    In order to visualize them in iPhoto, must I necessarily import them?
    iPhoto is a Database. Before it can work with any data it must be imported to the database, so yes it is necessry to import them.
    Can't I see the pictures from the media without importing?
    See above.
    If not, is there any application with this functionality?
    Hundreds. Any image viewer will do the job. On your Mac the Finder has QuickLook and there is the Preview app as well. Online you can download any of these:

  • Help with this acoustic guitar sound.

    Hi guys,
    Having a break from recording vox for a bit. So now on to recording acoustic guitars
    I need some help with this acoustic guitar i recored today, it sound ok? but needs help. I'v messed about with EQ but still not happy .
    I'v put the recording up as a quicktime movie so you can see mic positions. Processing so far is a bit of compression and a dab of EQ cutting 500 Hz and reverb. Mic is a SE-Z5600.
    The performance is far from perfect as this was a once through take for sound tests. Also the sync goes out between the audio and video no idea why
    Any help would be great.

    John,
    Hearing it back from a compressed file obviously is going to "skew" things a bit, but I actually fail to see what you don't like about it.
    Here's the thing...
    When the guitar is good (sounds like yours is), and the player is good (which you are), THAT"S the sound of the guitar.
    Yes, mic choice, mic placement, mic pre-amps, size of the room, etc, all play a part, but here's the best kept secret in the biz...
    All those things I just mentioned play the smallest part. Don't believe me?
    Record that guitar with you playing, with 5 different mic, 5 different mic pres, in 5 different rooms, and you'll be stunned at how similar they all sound. Sure there will be various sonic differences, but those differences would be pale in comparison to a different player playing a different guitar.
    Hmm, why not move the mic a bit more to the center hole of the guitar and >get a bit closer.
    I would suggest NOT doing this, because of the proximity effect of placing a mic to close to the sound source, unless the mic was set in an omni pattern, and even then, I suggest against it, because a guitar is made to project tone, and when you stick a mic within an inch or two of it, you "choke" all that tone, and it's a very microscopic view of a intended bigger picture.
    The "safest" place to place a single mic on an acoustic guitar, is out about 7 or 8 inches, from the 12th or 14th fret. You'll find a very balanced tone here. It's certainly not the only place to out a single mic, but it's the "tried and true" method, that will produce predictable and useable results everytime.
    Other than that, a small diaphragm condenser mic will generally sound better on an acoustic guitar than a large diaphragm mic, like the one you're using. Again, that's a safe generalization... not to be written in stone, but will always produce good results.
    I think you're recording sounds good. It sounds like you, playing your guitar. Isn't that the goal?

  • Workstation specs -- Any problems with this system quote?

    Here are the specs I have been quoted.  I'm not terribly knowledgeable about hardware, does anyone see any problems with this system?  I have recently started shooting and editing weddings, engagements and corporate videos.  I think it may be bit more than I need, but I would much prefer that to less than I need.  Any input from the more tech savvy users would be much appreciated.

  • Photoshop is split-screening & freezing causing me to lose work? "Support" did not help with this.

    I have Photoshop CS5 and the problem started about a week ago.
    I opened an image, got 3/4s of the way through it, and the computer screen "split into two" and froze. Causing me to shut down my computer, entirely, and lose an hour and half's worth of work. I shut my computer down, completely and did a full system reboot, and tried again. This time I didn't even get a full step into editing before the same thing occured.
    Worried, I had contacted Apple Support because I thought it might have been something with the video card. After putting me through various tests, all of which turned up clean, Apple said it was something that showed it wasn't with Mac, it was with CS5 itself (or at least with Adobe's Photoshop application). They told me to try calling Adobe. However, they only have certain hours, so I tried chat support - which was hysterical, becuase they kept sending me over here to the forums. (Apple's support takes much better care of their customers, I've noticed, at least when it comes to full "chat support".) Anyways, I had given this computer a break for a day or two, completely shut off. Today, I turned it on, and the same thing happened. Opened a .Raw image, got it into the Photoshop main screen, got a step into editing, had the computer screen split again, and freeze.
    I would greatly appreciate anyone's help with this subject. I have been unable to work for about a week, which is completely devastating to someone who runs their own business. Advice, or thoughts?

    You say it only happens when you work on raw.  Is this only when you’re using the Camera Raw plug-in?  If you work on a small JPG in the ACR plug-in, does it happen? 
    Have you tried turning off the OpenGL acceleration in PS / Preferences / Performance as Mylenium suggested? 
    I would agree it sounds like a video hardware failure, due to it locking up your computer.   Do you have a way to photograph and share what the screen looks like when it is locked up?

    There are two problems with taking that approach to RAM:
    1) RAM can go bad over time for various reasons.
    2) Bad RAM is often only detected if it's something important.
    For example, if a pixel in a graphic changes you may not notice.
    If a jump address in a program changes, it will crash.
    If it's in the kernel, you'll get a panic.
    Worse yet, RAM failures often depend on the value of cells around them, so it's quite possible to get a memory location that only fails if the addresses before and after it contain a particular value.

  • I was recently searching in my iPhone 3GS for a phone number, and the search hits revealed text messages that I have long ago deleted and would rather not have in my iPhone. How do I delete these once and for all?

    It was the strangest thing. You would think that once you delete a message off your phone it is gone.
    But in the "search iPhone" feature several key numbers like an area code reveal phone numbers of people
    who aren't in my contact list, specifically the first few words of text messages that I deleted long ago.

    Hi I have subscribed to a podcast that I want to delete. I cal click on delete, it geos away, and yet the next time I start itunes there it is again? THis has been going on for a month now... so I hope someone can hlpe me get rid of for once and for all this haunted podcast.
    Can you delete it from the folder instead of from itunes? I have never done something like this...
    Please help! Halloween is over and this is not funny anymore!

    This sounds like something having to do with Home Sharing rather than iTunes Match. Nothing will be downloaded from the cloud unless you specifically click the button. 
    There is a setting in the Home Sharing settings of iTunes that will copy music from one computer to another when ever iTunes is opened on both computers at the same time. I don't have multiple computers so I don't remember exactly where that setting is, but this KB article should be helpful <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819>. If the page doesn't load the first time just reload it.

    Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
    Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

  • Can Apple fix the 12 bit audio problem once and for all?

    I have had persistent audio problems from I Life V3 all the way up to I Life 06. Sometimes it is synch issues. Sometimes it is audio dropping out. I have been through the various forums and applied the various remedies with some successs, some failure. The basic problem is that I have an extensive quantity of Mini DV tapes dating back to 1997, most recorded with 12 bit sound (prior to 2002). Apple's basic stance has been, you must use 16 bit sound or I Movie and/or I DVD won't work and . And proposes awkward workarounds. Basically placing the onus on it's own consumers. Why can't 12 bit sound support be included in I DVD 06 and these persistent audio issues put to rest once and for all? Is there some overwhelming technical reason why it cannot be done?

    I don't know about overwhelming, but the DVD specification (which was not developed by Apple) calls for the audio to be sampled at 16-bit/48KHz (I think you might also be able to use 96KHz as well). This is what the software expects. If you choose to use another sample rate then the software may or may not be able to "fix" it in post. The real problem is that many camcorder manufactures set the audio to 12-bit by default.
