Playlist problems with iOS4

Since I have updated my 2nd Gen. iPod Touch to iOS4, I have been having problems with my iPod making changes to how I have organized my music BY ITSELF. This happens at random and is very frustrating. For example, I have a playlist of Imogen Heap music that has 61 songs in it. Every now and then, I will go into my music, and the playlist has DELETED 59 of the songs on the playlist!!! What the heck is going on?

Thanks Mike,
But it looks like it's a Wacom driver issue and I'm using a Wacom pen: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15677003#15677003
Sorry, I should have looked into that before I posted.
Thanks anyway,
Cheers,

Problems with iOS4 on 3G. Any suggestions?

I downloaded the latest iTunes and iOS4 and this is what I've experienced:
Battery drained quickly
External power pack (mophie brand) is not recognized anymore and cannot power up iPhone
Emails in Draft folder in Outlook disappeared
Cannot read Excel Spreadsheets
Any suggestions or fixes out there?

I would strongly recommend downgrading to 3.1.3 or 3.1.2.
I had the same problem with my iPhone 3G so I went back down, it was painful living with how slow it was. Its good to know that I bought only a 2 year product.

Playlist problems with music on a Mac.

I somewhat recently switched to using multiple Mac's as my main desktop machines, all running Lion. I'm trying to do everything "the Mac way", preferring Apple-provided apps where possible. While im 95% happy, the funny thing is that the part that works worst is playing music. So please school me in the Mac way of making music come out of the headphone jack.
Background: For over a decade, I've been ripping all my CDs, and storing them on a server. That's done by converting the tracks into mp3 format, and storing them in a directory tree, one directory per CD. The names of the tracks are very simple - they are 1.mp3, 2.mp3 and so on. Each track hasID3 tags with album, track title (usually the movement name, like Allegro or Andante), and the artist. Each directory contains a playlist in M3U format, cunningly always called all.m3u (as it contains all tracks in this directory). Many directories also contain other playlists. For example, if the CD had both Bruch and Mendelssohn's violin concerti, it would probably have two extra playlists, called bruch.m3u and mendelssohn.m3u. Or if it contained Beethoven's 1st and 2nd symphonies, it would have 1.m3u and 2.m3u. Navigation and search is done by a series of html pages that are stored in the same directory tree, making locating music (whole CDs = directories, whole works = playlists, and individual tracks = mp3 files) quite simple.
This whole directory tree is avaiable through a HTTP server, mounted as a remote file system (for example by AFP or NFS), copies exist on some of the laptops I carry with me, and much of it is also copied onto USB sticks.
With both Windows and Linux desktop machines, this was very easy to use: point a web browser at the directory tree, available through a http server within my house. Click on an individual track (an individual mp3 file), and it immediately starts playing (since all sensible players buffer). Point at a playlist, and it immediately starts playing. The same player can handle mp3 and m3u files, making the user interface simple and consistent. There are no cache consistency problems: If I quit the player, edit the playlist on the server, and then click on the playlist again, the music player will pick up the new version.
In contrast, on the Mac nearly nothing works, and the little that works works badly.
If you click on an individual track (a single mp3 file), it actually starts playing in the Safari tab. But that player (I suspect it's a stripped-down version of Quicktime embedded in Safari) is extremely stripped down: it doesn't even attempt to display ID3 tags and claims that everything is "live broadcast". It doesn't react to F8, so you can't quickly pause the music if the phone rings or someone comes into my office (you have to mouse over to the Safari window and click, way too slow). And there is no way to rewind while playing. But at least something comes out of the headphones, and it is the track I expected to hear.
Now, with playlists, this completely breaks. If you click on the link to the m3u file in the web browser, Safari downloads the playlist, then starts iTunes. Unfortunately, it completely forgets to tell iTunes the context, so iTunes is incapable of doing anything with that playlist: the playlist "waldstein.m3u" contains entries 1.mp3, 2.mp3 and 3.mp3 for the three movements of the Waldstein sonata, but iTunes doesn't get told that the playlist was found in the directory http://homeserver.example.com/music/piano/dg_419053, and that the relative file names are in that directory. So there is no way to play a playlist from a web browser if it is being served by http.
Strangely, if I point Safari at a html page that is on the file system (perhaps on a USB stick or a shared server), the link between Safari or Finder and iTunes works: You click on a playlist file (either on a web page or in the finder), it opens iTunes, and it starts playing the tracks. We'll get to the broken caching below though.
OK, plan B. Take the whole directory (many dozens of GB, hundreds of CDs), and ask iTunes to import it all. No problem. iTunes is even smart enough to know that 1.m3u is a playlist (for Borodin's first symphony), containing four movements 1.mp3 through 4.mp3. Unfortunately, iTunes is also completely stupid, and thinks that all files names 1.m3u are the same playlist. So now I end up with a large playlist called 1.m3u, which contains about a dozen symphonies, sonatas, and piano concertos mangled together. The really amazing thing is the playlist called all.m3u, which contains every bit of music I own. The reason I say "stupid": assuming that two m3u files that are found in different locations but have the same name must be the same playlist and must be merged is really jumping to conclusions. But at least I can sort it by album title (usually the name of the work), and track title. But that doesn't do anything useful. I have probably 10 recordings of Rach3, and being presented with 30 tracks, 10 of which are the first movement, then 10 second movements ... sorting them alphabetically is not useful.
Sorting in general doesn't work: If I by mistake ever sort within iTunes, then it loses the original order of the tracks within the playlist. And I don't want to hear a symphony in the order "Allegro, Andante, Moderato", just because that's the alphabetic order of the track titles: it works out to 3rd - 2nd - 1st movement. And I have not yet found a way to tell iTunes to revert all playlists to the order the tracks showed up in the playlist.
If you tell iTunes to start playing in the middle of a large playlist (for example just the last movement of Rach3 with Argerich), it will happily continue playing within the same playlist. Even across track / album boundaries! Today I was playing Bach's St' John passion out of the giant "all.m3u" playlist, and at the end, it simply drifted into Borodin's 1st symphony. Quite the shock, musically speaking.
The final straw is this: Once you import, iTunes wants to take charge, and it caches all the metadata (namely the playlists and track filenames). In caching this, iTunes cmpletely forgets about any form of cache coherency protocol: just because you saw a playlist once doesn't mean that it will always be in that place, and will always have the same content. Say I have imported at home, and iTunes remembers that the 1st movement of the Waldstein is in /Volumes/HomeServer/music/piano/dg_419053/1.mp3 (and at home that file is accessible via AFP or NFS). Now I take my MacBook to the office, open iTunes, and click, and nothing hapens: my home server is not mounted in the office. No problem: I reach into my briefcase, which contains a 32GB USB stick. If I now open that playlist, iTunes starts playing it ... but now I have twice as many tracks. Do this for a while, and you end up with N copies (for large values of N) of each playlist, and at any given moment all but N-1 of those are broken.
Even worse: Say I discover that I made a mistake, and forgot to add the last movement to a playlist. No problem, go to the server that contains the master copy, edit the .m3u file with emacs, done. Through a variety of rsync... scripts, the various copies on other computers or USB sticks will be updated soon. But iTunes remembers the version it imported weeks ago. Do I have to clear my iTunes cache every time I edit anything anywhere? Why does iTunes even have a metadata cache, if it is usually wrong?
So, let me summarize my problem. I'm looking for a way to click on a mp3 or m3u file that's stored via some sensible protocol (be it HTTP, local files, remote files on a shared server, or file system on portable media), and just play it. Without storing a play list, without rearranging the play list, without caching, but with a display of the ID3 tag and a working pause key.
Here are my biggest complaints about the software that ships with a Mac:
The mp3 player embedded in Safari is missing about 90% of the function.
Linkage of playlists from Safari running on HTTP to iTunes is broken (but it works from Finder, or from Safari running on files).
iTunes insists on importing or caching playlists. I don't need that, I have better storage mechanisms. I want iTunes to play one track or one playlist, and then be done and forget everything it ever knew. Is there a way to tell iTunes no never remember anything, just play the one thing I ordered it to?
If we absolutely must import and cache all playlist in iTunes, at least teach it to recognize that m3u files with the same name found in different places are not the same, and shall not be merged.
Once you sort a playlist in iTunes, I don't see how you can tell it to get back to the original sort order.
Any ideas? Other than going back to Windows and Linux desktops, which I don't find acceptable?

I would also recommend that in order to ensure the person is getting the document in a format they can understand that he prints to PDF the documents. Macs do that very easily.
OpenOffice is free and crossplatform. If they need to edit his documents, they should all agree to use OpenOffice.

Problems with iOS4 and Google Mail (ActiveSync/Exchange)

So, I’m one of those people whose greatest virtue isn’t patience.
Minutes after its release I HAD to install iOS4 onto my iPhone 3GS. Since there’s no upgrade procedure implemented (yet?), upgrading took just short of a lifetime: the iPhone was completely wiped, then iTunes installed iOS4, then the backup was restored to the iPhone. All in all, an probably thanks to the enormously big Navigon app, this took almost 90 minutes.
Everything looked fine… but after a couple of hours of normal usage I ran into a “little” problem…
I unplugged the iPhone at around 10 am with a fully charged battery. After just four hours (during which I received 10 mails, 5 push messages and made one call of approx. 3 minutes) the battery was down to 63%. Normally it should still be in then 90s…
It seemed as if, somehow, Mail.app crashed and went wild – draining battery like crazy and heating up the device.
Back home, I deleted my Mail accounts, rebooted the iPhone, added my Mail accounts again (manually) and recharged the iPhone to the fullest.
During the next 5 hours (in a region with full 3G coverage) I received another 15 mails, 10 push notifications and 1 text message, which I also replied to.
The battery was down to 53%.
This morning, I downloaded the “iPhone Configuration Utility” to gain access to the iPhones “console output”. You can find the, in my eyes, relevant parts below this post.
There are some timeouts for com.apple.mobilemail.autofetch and a few reports of an EASIconnection dying with “Error Domain:NSURLErrorDomain Code=1001″ which obviously means “This operation couldn’t be completed”.
Furthermore, from time to time, the EASIASFolderItemsSyncTask fails.
As of now, I assume that this is some kind of problem between Mail.app on my iPhone and the Googlemail server, which I’m accessing via ActiveSync/Exchange, since I’d like to get my mails pushed to me.
I then deleted the Googlemail Exchange-Account and replaced it with the "normal" IMAP-Account. That works fine.
Right now I'm testing with other Exchange servers to see if this problem is on the iPhone/iOS part or on Google's side.
Anyone else noticing this?!

Camera Problems with iOS4

Hi All
Has anyone experienced the problem of their camera on the 3GS now having a 'pink' haze on all pictures / videos that are taken?
Even appears on the preview and on the photo
Look forward to hearing from anyone else with similar issue.
QubixTech

Hi Paulo,
I'm suspecting that Apple doesn't regard this as a bug.
My personal thoughts that it is a silly feature to reset the file count each time you empty the camera roll, or better yet it could have a feature you could turn on/off in the settings like many cameras allow you to do.
If you want them to address it, send a feedback email to them here
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
I suspect that what has happened, is the developers have designed the iOS4 software around iPhoto and not anything else.
iPhoto creates Events based on the digitised time of the file, that is, the time you took the photo. So it effectively creates a sub folder called an Event and puts the photos there. When you download the photos from the iPhone straight into iPhoto and there were multiple days over which the photos were taken, it creates multiple Events. So in saying that, it doesn't really care what the file is called and if there are a thousand IMG_001 files in iPhoto in a thousand different Events, iPhoto and your computer had no trouble in finding them all.
You are like me and use Image Capture to import the photos rather than iPhoto.
My work around is to select the photos by each day in Image Capture and download them to a folder that includes the date they were taken (eg 100925 BBQ at the Beach (I add the date at the start so when I am searching thru finder, the folders are listed in the order I took them)) and have them deleted when imported automatically from the iPhone.
It not great, but it works for me and even though I may end up with a thousand IMG_001 files, they don't all end up in the same folder, left for me to work out which ones they are.
Hope this helps

Backup problem with iOS4

Currently, my dad's iphone (3gs) is using iOS4.1, no iCloud.
My dad's phone used to sync to my computer only (nearly a year ago since he went aboard). But now it cannot sync with my computer
When I try to sync, iTune is forcing me to do either setup new phone or restore only.
I need to do backup on his contacts, pictures and notes etc. from old one to his new iphone5, but cannot do backup at all.
Please give me suggestion.

Select setup as "New", the next screen should prompt you to rename your phone. Just name it what you already have it named. After that, you should be able to sync and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. The message is more threatening than what really happens.

Playlist problem with podcasts Nano 2nd g 8GB

I have podcasts that I put into playlists, and usually it will play from one to the next, but now it plays only each one individually and then goes back to the main menu, so if I have 8 podcasts of 5 minutes each, I can run for 40 minutes without touching the iPod, but now I have to reselect each one. This happened once before and I don't know what I did to fix it. I have deleted and recreated the playlists to no avail. Music goes from one to the next without a problem, but each Podcast is listed as "1 of 1" rather than "1 of 8" or whatever number.

That renames the iPod but we still have the problem of getting the right songs on to it. We have one playlist designated for the shuffle but it won't take the songs. What are we doing wrong?

IPad Playlist Problem with Movies

On my iPhone, I was able to setup a playlist of movies and videos so that they would play continually based on my list or in shuffle. On my iPad, after playing the first video, the iPad reverts to the Video application and stops. I then have to manually select the second video but then stops after that video. Is this an issue with the iPad or some settings? I couldn't find any settings that would fix this issue.

to play a playlist of movies continually you can try workaround with changing "Media Kind" to "TV Show" from thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12751134&#12751134
it's worked with iOS 4.2.1 on iPad.

WiFi password login problems with IOS4 update

Ah, so I downloaded the new ios a few days ago, and my home wifi had been
working just fine, up until tonight, where I was asked for my password
for the WiFi network.
I put in the password through the Wifi menu in setting, and nothing happens.
There is no confirmation as to whether I was correct or incorrect, or if I had connected at all.
Instead, it sent me back to the screen and refreshed the list of available
networks, and shortly, asked me for my password again.
So then, I try it in Safari, and upon the input of my password, it tells me I'm incorrect ?
I'm 100% sure it's correct after re-confirming it with my internet provider,
and I've re-entered it at least three dozen times.
Anyone have any solutions, or maybe even having the same problem ?
Thanks !

I want to piggyback on the query you have made as I found the answers useful. I have a situation similar, though I am presently not locked out or having any troubles. I have a password which is BLANK. When I bought the MacBook Pro, the sales rep (this was at an Apple reseller location not an Apple Store) advised me to set it up with a blank password and I could change it later.
So, for now, whenever I want to make any system change, install software etc, I simply hit the return key when asked for the password, as mine is BLANK.
I want to know what are the steps to take to set up a password now. I am assuming that I go to the System Preferences, System, Users and Groups, and for administrator, click change password. Up to this step, very easy. It is what happens next that concerns me.
I have no users set up on the machine. I am the exclusive user.
When I am asked to enter my password, do I enter a "return" command or do I "tab" past the block for the password?

Please fix battery and slowdown problems with ios4.3.1(8G4)

similar to the cases other users facing, my iphone4 with ios 4.3.1 consumes 30% of battery overnight with all apps closed. it also became super slow when gaming (other apps closed) and responseless when surfing.

From what i've seen your experience with 4.3.1 on your phone isn't typical. You should do a clean install of 4.3.1 to see if this clears up your performance problems.
