Play Time is off 10-15 sec in v4.5 Pro

I am trying to get a simple statistical counter to work but the timing always comes up wrong. I have narrowed it down to the Play Time.
It's nearly 15 seconds slow. Is there an adjustment for this? It is really hard to get any accuracy.
Thanx in advance.

Can you provide some details on exactly what you are testing? Does the play selector needs to move from the left-most position to the right-most position in a specific time interval?
The only options to adjust the frequency of the insert is by adjusting the Play Time, and the amount of values contains in the source data.

ITunes Last Played time off by 1 Hour

Hi Guyz,
I am on SE Asia Time (GMT+7) and my PC clock is set correctly, but every time I play song in iTUnes, it's Last Played time is off (earlier) by exactly 1 Hour.
Anyone why it's doing that.
Example
Now it's 18:27 and the song will say last played 17:27
Strange
Thanks

Hi Ed2345,
Thanks for taking the time to reply
I just did a "recheck Windows Update" and the only missing (hidden) updates are
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2709981 (Something to do with WMP 12 and DVD)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2592687 (Something to do with RDP 8.0)
and silverlight and language packs
I will keep you informed if the US of A Time change solved my Promprem
Edit: // Maybe iTunes 11 solves everything

Why does the sound stop after about 10 minutes? I like to listen to lectures, etc. and find it very annoying to have to press the on/off button to restart it every 10 minutes. Couldn't find a way to extend playing time in settings.

Any suggestions? This is my first iPod and I am ready to take it back if I am unable to extend the playing time. Frustrating!

I can imagine that is frustrating as heck. My daughter has one of these and I know for a fact hers does not turn off after 10 minutes because I have to turn it off for her every night after she has fallen asleep. Below is what Apple has to say about it from a troubleshooting standpoint.
"If music stops when the iPod nano screen turns off m Make sure the earphone port is free of debris. m Make sure the earphone or headphone connector is pushed in all the way. To see an illustration, go to support.apple.com/kb/ts3700."
Are you using aftermarket ear buds or speakers when you listen to these lectures??? If so maybe it has something to due with a compatibility issue.

In FM mode it shuts off after 60 sec.

Brand new, fully charged battery;.... in FM radio mode, ipod SHUTS ITSELF OFF after 60 sec. of play, FROM THE LAST TIME I TOUCH THE SCREEN.
I made no default settings changes.Does the same thing repeatedly.
I opened the pkg, charged ipod 4 hrs (USB2),tuned in a local FM station, ipod shuts off 60 from the time I last touch the screen.
I'm a BLONDE.

I had this same problem and posted in a similar thread but then I re-read another thread "Radio shuts off as the screen goes into sleep mode" and kd8 found the solution that also worked for me.
In my case the headphones were not all the way in. You have to push in with some force to get the connector plastic fully flush with the nano.
Worked for me, hope it works for you.
Of course this also fixed the loose headphone problem.
With the manual had emphasized this point.

ITunes "Last Played" Time Stamp issues

I have a late 2011 Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2 & iTunes 11.0 (163).
Ever since I did the last update to iTunes, the "Last Played" time stamp has not worked.
In the past, whenever a track finished playing, iTunes would place the time & date in the "Last Played" column. This no longer works.
I just came back from the local Apple Store, & one of the workers there suggested setting the iTunes Preferences supply the time stamp.
When I got home, I went through the preferences, but could not find anything for the "Last Played" time stamp.
Please help.

Go into iTunes Preferences and turn off crossfade. Don't ask why it works; do ask apple to fix this bug!

System time: Cannot go back ( 3 sec.). Wait 1 second(s)

Hi, Ever since upgrading to Enhancement pack 6 which upgrades to Netweaver 7.4 also, we get messages from client 000 in the system log that say:
System time: Cannot go back (< 3 sec.). Wait 1 second(s)
System time: Cannot go back (< 3 sec.). Wait 2 second(s)
We get it on all Ehp6 systems, and some have different domain controllers than others so it is not a problem with one dc. We have many other SAP systems on the same network, but only ehp6 systems report this issue. stzac shows same time zone for all clients. rsdbtime shows in sync, or no more than 1 second off.
Warm Regards, CM

It is Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise on vmware. We have a lot of SAP servers on vmware and it is only the EHP6 systems that give these messages. There is nothing else related in the event viewer except for system time messages. We still get the messages several times per day per server.

The suggestions from 2046718 - Time Synchronization on Windows of setting MaxNegPhaseCorrection = 0 and SpecialPollInterval = 300 did not help.

8.1 not updating Last Played time/date

Songs are playing normally, but when I check Recently Played it only shows the tracks that played just before installing the update. The Play Count is registering properly, but the time and date played are not.
Also, I'd rather have my old shuffle function back. Genius is an optional function that can be turned off if I choose not to use it and I wish iTunes DJ was the same way.

I'm also no longer getting last played time updated as well as play count not increasing. Also, when I rate a track from the shuffle's list, the rating does not transfer to the original track on disk. This makes manual management of tracks on a shuffle impossible. The play position is also lost.
Apple, this is a critical bug bug, because of loss of data. Please fix it asap.

My iPad 2 is switching off every 15 sec, what happens?, my iPad 2 is switching off every 15 sec, what happens?

my ipad 2 is constantly schitching off every 15 sec, and I can not do a reset via itunes in this time, any proposal?

Hi, do you mean that shortly after iOS powers up, the swirling progress circle comes up?
If that's the case, its instability in the OS. I'm more inclined towards completing a firmware flushing through iTunes.
Restore your iPad in this case through DFU (device firmware upgrade) mode
DFU is pretty much a power downed state of conducting an update.
Since your iPad is literally hiccing up *hic* every second *hic*, I'm thinking a powered up way of conducting a reset or firmware update isn't safe.
This is DFU
Attach the device to the pc
Turn the phone off
Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
At no point will the display come on. Now your restore should work.
Hold ctrl key + restore button on iTunes (for windows, I'm not sure of mac equivalent)
In the directory, point iTunes towards the ipsw download
Apple will now authenticate the firmware
Let the device do its job

My ipod turns off after 20 sec of any song

hi, just bought a nano 6gen this saturday and got my songs on it, but when i play anything it gives me a Music simbol then turns off like 20 sec after it.. cant even listen to one song...

The 1.1 update introduced a feature to help prevent people from depleting their battery by leaving it on without a headset connected. With the 1.1 update, if your nano does not detect a headset, it will pause playback when your screen goes off. This did not happen in 1.0 because the feature was not included in 1.0.
If you are finding that the nano pauses when the screen goes dark, it is because your headset has not been detected.
So the discussion needs to be about what would keep your headset from being detected. There are a few options:
Your headset is not inserted all the way. This solves the problem for most folks who experience it. If you see ANY silver of the headset jack when it is inserted, it is NOT fully inserted.
You have debris in your headset jack. This is the second most common problem when folks experience this. At least that seems to be the case for the folks who post what solved their problem. Look into your headset jack. The thing that senses if your headset is fully seated is at the bottom of the jack. You can have a small piece of paper in there that lets you fully insert the headset but still prevents the headset from being detected because it blocks the connection. You end up with the nano pausing when the screen goes dark. How you are going to clean out your headset jack is up to you. Some folks here have reported they had to use cotton and alcohol others have said just plowing into the jack got the stuff out. One of my sons got the little round piece of paper from a hole punch stuck in his headset jack and it caused this.
Your headset jack or plug are broken. Finally, if your headset jack or the plug are faulty, then this could happen.
If you get through item 2 and your problem is still happening, you need to go to the Apple store. If you headset jack is bad, you can't fix it.

Syncopation Bug? Last Played "Time" between two computers

First all: I get NO response from Sonzea email "support", the creator of Syncopation. I've sent two emails over past four days.
Now.. here's the issue:
I've successfully used Syncopation to keep two iTunes lib's in sync on two computers for a long time. It's always worked great. Hadn't used it for a while, but now when I use it the "time" is off by one hour between Sync software on the two computers.
This manifests itself in two ways:
1.) the "Last Played" time is different by exactly one hour when a sync is done. It is "less" by one hour on the computer being synced (the other being the "master"). After a sync it tells me I need to sync ALL 4023 tracks again because it sees the "Last Played" date different between the two. You can sync repeated and it reports that all EVERY TRACK needs updating- it never thinks it is synced.
2.) BUT, when I reverse the sync and use the OTHER computer/library as the master it tells me the two libs ARE IN SYNC - even when I see that the "Last Played" dates if different by exactly one hour!
I'm running the latest version's of Syncopation and Mac OSX.
Anyone other Syncopation users see this? Ideas? Comments?

I'll just update to mention that I just noticed that the "Remove Duplicates" script isn't actually removing all the duplicates. I'm down from 3-4 copies of everyting to just two, and now I need a way to get rid of this one extra duplicate. Anyone know of any other ways to do this?

I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?

I just backed up my mac to an external hard drive using Time Machine. What would happen if I turn Time Machine off and then plug the external hard drive back into my computer?
What I am ultimately wanting to do is make more room on my computer by backing up all of my files onto the external hard drive and then deleting them off of my computer. However, neededing to be able to retrieve them from the external hard drive later down the road.
From what I have read and am trying to understand, is that I probably shouldn't have used time machine. I need to use the external hard drive like a basic flash drive where I can put things on and get things off without having it automatically update through time machine everytime I connect it to my computer.
Not tech savvy at all and barely understand basics. I need very simple and easy to understand explanations.

BIG BIG MISTAKE ..... youre making a linchpin deathtrap for your data trying to shove everything on a single fragile HD.
Dont suffer the tragedy other people make, buy another or 2 more HD, theyre cheap as dust.
The number of people who have experienced terror by having a single external HD backup is enormous. One failure that WILL HAPPEN, and kaput,......all gone!
Dont do it, its all about redundancy, redundancy, redundancy.
follow here:
Methodology to protect your data. Backups vs. Archives. Long-term data protection
Deleting them off your computer is fine....having only ONE copy is extremely BAD.
The Tragedy that will be, the tragedy that never should be
Always presume correctly that your data is priceless and takes a very long time to create and often is irreplaceable. Always presume accurately that hard drives are extremely cheap, and you have no excuse not to have multiple redundant copies of your data copied on hard drives and squirreled away several places, lockboxes, safes, fireboxes, offsite and otherwise.
Hard drives aren't prone to failure…hard drives are guaranteed to fail (the very same is true of SSD). Hard drives dont die when aged, hard drives die at any age, and peak in death when young and slowly increase in risk as they age.
Never practice at any time for any reason the false premise and unreal sense of security in thinking your data is safe on any single external hard drive. This is never the case and has proven to be the single most common horrible tragedy of data loss that exists.
Many 100s of millions of hours of lost work and data are lost each year due to this single common false security. This is an unnatural disaster that can avoid by making all data redundant and then redundant again. If you let a $60 additional redundant hard drive and 3 hours of copying stand between you and years of work, then you've made a fundamental mistake countless 1000s of people each year have come to regret.

I want to play multiple speakers off one Airport. is that possible?

I have an Airport express in my living room, but i want to have wireless music in my kitchen and bedroom. Would i need to buy an amplifier and connect it to the airport or can i play multiple speakers off one Airport OR should i buy multiple Airport's to achieve this?

You can either use multiple AirPorts or use an audio system that pipes music to speakers throughout the house.

HT1725 When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?

i'm just wondering:
a) why it does this
and b) how to stop it doing this, because it still charges me for the song :/

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
