Podcast skip count doesn't work

Hi
Pretty simple question, I hope the solution is as simple (a button I'm not checking?); when I press com-arrow in a smart playlist with music, the skip count is advanced. But with podcasts it doesn't.

I experienced exactly the same, using Itunes 8 in combination with a Ipod nano 4G. Both in skipping podcasts in iTunes and via my ipod do not work with the podcast.
I hope this can be solved somehow, it would greatly improve listening to podcasts experience in the car using smart playlists (with skipping = removing filter).

  • Removing Podcasts from Nano Doesn't work!!!

    OK Apple, what's going on? A quick search of this discussion area shows 34 pages of people having the same problem. Isn't it time to do something about it? GGGGRRRR!
    I've tried sync'g my podcasts two different ways and in both cases, iTunes is updated properly, but the Nano itself is NEVER updated. The podcasts just sit there forever and I eventually get messages telling me that my Nano is out of space!!!
    method one:
    Set the podcast folder in iTunes to update automatically,
    set the podcast option to "keep all unplayed episodes"
    I make sure that I scrub episodes all the way to the end, then update my Nano.
    This correctly updates the podcast listing.
    I then update the podcast listing and listened to episodes are correctly removed from itunes.
    I then update the Nano and NOTHING HAPPENS. The episodes are left there!!!
    method two:
    Set the podcast folder to manually update
    create a smart playlist to include
    all items with a genre of "podcast",
    limited to only 25 items,
    listed my most recently added.
    I make sure that I scrub episodes all the way to the end, then update my Nano.
    This correctly updates the smartplaylist & the podcast list.
    I then update the podcast listing and listened to episodes are correctly removed from itunes.
    The smartplaylist is correctly updated
    I then update the Nano new podcasts are sync'd, but the OLD ONES ARE LEFT BEHIND!!
    The only thing that seems to work is to fully reinitalize my Nano. What a waste of time.
    Come Apple, you've got the new word of the year in "Podcast" and yet your own software can't deal with them.
    I'm not going to keep reformating my Nano every month. Windows Media Player & Xplay is looking better & better.

    Then please help "the user" with his error! How can I possibly have it set up such that my smartlist on my Nano works properly, my smartlist in iTunes works properly, and my podcast section of iTunes works properly, but the podcasts are still left on the memory of the nano???
    Here are my settings (you find the error!)
    1. Edit/Preferences/Podcasts:
    Check for new episodes: everyday
    When new episodes are avialable: download all
    Keep: all unplayed episodes
    2. Edit/Preferences/iPod/Podcasts:
    Manually manage Podcasts
    3. Edit/Preferences/iPod/Music
    Automatically update selected playlist only:
    !Podcast
    4. Smart Playlist (called !Podcast):
    Match ALL of the following rules
    Genre is Podcast
    Play count is 0
    limit to 25 songs select by most recently added
    live update
    So, with this set up I should:
    1. get all new podcasts and only keep those that are not listened to
    2. have no sync'd of podcasts based on "podcast" rules
    3. sync a Smart Playlist called "!Podcast"
    4. have a smart Playlist called "!Podcast" with only the 25 most recent songs in the genre "podcast"
    Where is the "user error"?
    Sorry if I seem combative, but this is EVER frustrating.
    Thanks in advance.

  • VM message waiting counter doesn't work on Palm Pre Plus

    My voice mail message waiting counter isn't working on my Palm Pre Plus.  At first, it showed messages waiting when there weren't any.  I Reset Voicemail Count, and ever since then, it doesn't show any messages waiting when there are messages.  i have also tried a hard reset, to no avail.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Try to reset the voicemail count by going to:

  • Counter doesn't work on iPod Touch

    I have this issue with my iPod Touch (January 08 Upgrade): My iPod doesn't recognize and count when I listen to something. e.g. I have an audiobook, with 40 tracks. After I listened to each and everyone of them (up to the end), and connecting the iPod to the Mac, the counter in iTunes still shows 0.
    Why is that so? Because of that all the Intelligent Playlists don't update themselves on the iPod. In addition to that, if I change thenumber of stars of a track, it doesn't show up in my playlist with tracks with only 5 stars...
    Anyone got an idea?
    Thanks

    No, I'm automatically syncing the two libraries.
    So I'm gonne try reinstall iTunes... Does it loose all the counters, stats etc, if you reinstall it?
    Personally I don't think that the problem is with iTunes, because I have an iPod 5th Gen, that works perfectly with iTunes, counter and everything...

  • Podcast smart list doesn't work anymore

    For some reason with the recent updates of itunes, the podcasts aren't flowing into the podcast my podcast smart list. In order to get them to go in, I have to keep re-labeling the genre field in the itunes podcast folder.
    They also stopped auto deleting too....ugh what a pain
    Any clue?

    I've since learned that I can use Ctrl+' and Ctrl+Shift+' (Mac) for the cheapo feet and inches marks. Thanks for the info about prime marks though, I didn't know about them – that they are the "real" feet and inches marks. I also didn't know that Smart Quotes would convert quotes during copy and paste.
    I must say that I couldn't find prime marks in the Glyphs palette (which would really benefit from a search tool), at least not for the Myriad Pro font. Still, I will keep it in mind for any "important" applications of the feet and inches marks in future. Most of the time I just want them quickly for unimportant uses, at which time I'll just use Ctrl+'. I guess I'm obsessive enough to avoid quotation marks when I mean feet and inches, but not obsessive enough to dig through the Glyphs palette.
    By the way, I scanned through Snow Leopard's keyboard shortcuts preferences and couldn't find a conflicting Cmd+Opt+Shift+' command. It doesn't matter to me anymore though.

  • DVD Remote "skip" Function Doesn't Work for Blu-ray Projects (CS5 Encore)

         I have graduated from SD to HD and I need help.
    I just finished my first HD project in CS5, burned it to a Blu-ray disk and immediately encountered a problem: the skip forward and the skip backward remote functions don’t work. (I have encountered several other problems on the way to get here but I solved those with the help of the manual and by browsing this forum ). In this project, I am doing exactly what I have done in my previous SD projects (where this function works):
    In CS5 Encore, I added “Chapter Points at Intervals…”.
    On the timeline Properties Panel, I kept the default selection “Operations: All Permitted” (that includes “Search for Chapter” in the “Permitted User Operations” menu).
    In the “Project Preview” window, clicking on the “Next Chapter” or “Previous Chapter”, the function is executed correctly.
    Still, after burning the blu-ray disk and pressing the “skip forward” or “skip backward” buttons on the Blu-ray player (Panasonic DMP-BD65) remote, the “Operation is not permitted” message appears. (This very remote button function works on all my SD projects.)
    More background info: I am also using Encore Chapter Markers from the PrPro project linked with Adobe Dynamic Link, chapter marker End Actions (Jeff’s The Focal Easy Guide to Adobe Encore DVD 2.0, pp. 178-180), and Bill’s advice on using the “dip to black” transition to avoid the ~1 second gap between chapters in the Chapter Playlist that I use to play all chapters.  The following observation may be unrelated: in Encore’s Monitor Panel, the “Step Forward” button with pressing the Alt key does not move the CTI to the next GOP mark. The “Step Forward” or “Step Backward” functions (without pressing the Alt key) work (moving the CTI one frame)..
    At this point, I desperately need the Forum’s help.
    Thanks,

    Up to now I worked only with standard definition projects and outputted them
    to DVDs. This is my HD project. My problem is that I am a bit confused with
    the proper (and simple) settings for a blu-ray project. Your
    questions/comments imply that I am making a "DVD project" - but then, how
    can I burn it to a BD?
    Here is what I am doing, and please, let me know if/where I am making my
    mistake:
    1.       On the camcorder the recording format is set to "AVCHD 1080/60i
    HA".
    2.       In the CS5 PrPro new project:
    a.       General > Capture Format: HDV
    b.      New Sequence > Sequence Preset > AVCHD > "AVCHD 1080i30 (60i)".
    3.       In Encore: File >  Project Settings > Basic:
    a.       Authoring Mode: "Blu-ray"
    b.      Transcode Settings: "Codec: MPEG-2; Dimensions: 1920 x 1080; Frame
    Rate: 29.97, Fields: Upper Field First, Audio Transcoding Scheme: Dolby
    Digital, Maximum Audio/Video Bitrate: 15.0 Mbps"
    c.       In the "Default Transcode Settings" window, the Blu-ray tab is
    highlighted. (There, I could change the codec from MPEG-2 to H.264 -
    according to some articles it would give slightly better quality in certain
    circumstances - I don't know.)
    d.      On the Encore Project Panel, right clicking on the sequences, and
    choosing "Transcode Settings" from the menu, I get a window that says "DVD
    Transcoding" and "Blu-ray Transcoding". In the Blu-ray Transcoding section,
    I choose Codec: MPEG-2, Dimension 1920x1080, Frame Rate: 29.97, Quality
    Preset: Automatic Using Project Settings.
    e.       Going into the "Edit Quality Presets", I change the "Export
    Settings Preset" to "1920x1080i 29.97 Maximum Quality" (from the 1280x720)
    4.       Now, in the Project Panel, under the Blu-ray Transcode Settings I
    see: "1920x1080i 29.97 Maximum Quality MPEG-2".
    Are these the correct settings for a high quality Blu-ray project? I am
    re-transcoding the project with these settings to see if I still get the bad
    transitions.
    Thanks for your advice,
    Laci.

  • On the control panel for ios7 when I press play or pause or skip, it doesn't work, why?

    So I have no apps open other than music and when I want to pause song or skip it the buttons don't work on the control or lock screen, I restored it and it worked for a bit but then after a bit it happened again, it only works when I'm on the music itself

  • I don´t know, why event counter doesn´t work

    Hi, I have a problem. I use DAQ 6221 and when I configure in test panel of Measurement & Automation the edge counting, this is functional. Now I trie to run the code example of DAQmx ANSI C Dev, CntDigEv_Fn and the code ran, I hadn't problem, but the counter wasn't functional. I don´t know what's wrong. Please If somebody know, please tell me. It´s very important.

    Hi,
    The first thing that I would make sure is that you have the correct device number in the example you are trying to run. That is, the default for this program is dev1, and if this is not the same as in MAX then obviously your program won't run. So, make sure that these are the same, and let me know either way what happens.

  • Manual sync doesn't work

    Hi everyboby,
    I've installed iTunes 7.2 under Vista Home Premium. I use the manual sync for my iPod video because I use the iPod with different PCs.
    Manual sync of podcasts (drag & drop) doesn't work under Vista. iTunes crashes.. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance,
    Frank

    A reset of the data on .Mac resolved the issue. Must have been a fluke.

  • ITunes' Skip Count only works with some of my iPods

    iTunes does not count songs skipped on my 1st generation Nano, 2nd generation Nano, or iPhone. It does count songs skipped during play on my computer or from my 1st generation Shuffle. When I took my 1st generation Nano to the Apple Store they got iTunes to count a skip, but I haven't been able to recreate this feat. Is this something dependent on settings, or is it a glitch of some sort?

    Ok. Here's my problem:
    I've written a java applet and it works fine with the
    appletviewer.
    But it doesn't work with IE 5.5 with JRE 1.4.0 (But
    I'm not sure if it's the browser's fault).
    It works on a Linux PC with Netscape. (Not sure about
    the plugin)...I bet the IE 5.5 is NOT using the Java Plug-in (what you're calling JRE 1.4.0), but is likely using IE's Microsoft JVM. You need to either make the hosting HTML explicitly tell it to use the Plug-in (via the <OBJECT...> tag instead of the <APPLET...> tag), or configure the plug-in to be used as the default JVM for the browser.

  • Count(*) in the loop doesn't work and I really don't know why...

    Hello,
    I can't figure out why the following doesn't work. I cannot debug for I do not have privileges on this server.
    The execution always fails on bolded line. If I substitute the variable with the table name itself it works. The variable is properly populated in each of the iterations as I can see it by using dbms_output package. The small but may be important detail may be I am connected as user A but the tables are in the schema B. However I can list the tables and their columns in all_tab_cols view and there are synonyms made in my schema which allow me to access the B tables without prefixing them.
    I get the error:

  • HT1923 The sync function on my iPod Touch 3rd generation doesn't work properly.  My OS is up to date, but some of my podcasts won't transfer onto the iPod, and it won't delete ones I've already listened to.

    The sync function on my 3rd gen iPod Touch doesn't work properly.  It won't sync all the podcasts I've downloaded, and it won't delete ones I've listened to and deleted on iTunes.

    Close your iTunes,

    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.

  • Frequency divide by N doesn't work on Counter-Ti​mer PCI-6602

    Hello everybody,
    I tried to do something basic ( ?) with this Counter-Timer 6602 Board, and it doesn’t work.
    So I hope some people with more experience than me could understand what happens here.
    1) What I need:
    I need to generate 4 synchonised clocks, whose periods will be multiple of 1 ms.
    2) What I have:
    LabVIEW 7.0 and a PCI-6602 Counter-Timer Board in a DELL PC running under XP pro.
    The PCI-6602 Counter-Timer Board has 8 counter timers named CTR 0, CTR 1, ... CTR7.
    3) What I have already done, and that worked:
    - Generate a 1 kHz “Master Clock” signal from CTR 4, configured by “Continuous Pulse Generator Config.vi” (found in “Data Acquisition, Counters...).
    - configure CTR 0 and CTR 1 to work as frequency dividers, by use of “Down Counter or Divider Config.vi”.
    - Apply the output signal of CTR 4 (OUT ) to the SOURCE inputs of CTR 0 and CTR 1 by means of physical wiring in the SCB-68 connection box.
    When I do this, I get two nice secondary clock signals on my oscilloscope screen, ( with periods = 3 ms, or 5 ms or whatever multiples of 1 ms I choose) from CTR 0 and CTR 1 outputs , very clean and perfectly in phase with the 1 kHz Master Clock.
    So far, so good...
    But I still need 2 more secondary clocks...
    One would say: “No problem, do the same trick with two other counters...” Well, not so simple, it seems...
    4) What I tried to do, and that didn’t work:
    When I try to do the same frequency division with any of the remaining counters, (CTR2 to CTR7), the program stops and I get an error “ –10020 : Time base not valid “.
    I can’t figure out what happens here: I thought any counter could be configured to work as a frequency divider, but it seems not to be so, and I am stuck here.
    Has anyone an idea about how to fix this type of problem?

    karolik,
    I'm just adding a followup in English. As Marc L. mentioned, the particular vi named "Down Counter or Divider Config" isn't compatible with the 6602. While the 6602 does have the ability to generate 4 synchronized clocks, a different syntax is needed. Here's how I'd do it:
    Traditional NI-DAQ
    1. Configure a continuous pulsetrain on CTR 4. Route its output to, say, RTSI 4. Don't start it yet.
    2. Configure CTR 0,1,2,3 for continuous pulsetrains using RTSI 4 as their "timebase source." Start them.
    3. Start the CTR 4 pulsetrain.
    4. Now CTR's 0-3 should generate separate clocks with synchronized phasing.
    DAQmx
    1. Configure a continuous pulsetrain on CTR 4. Don't start it yet.
    2. Configure CTR 0,1,2,3 for continuous pulsetrains using "Ticks" for units. Use a DAQmx property node (probably Channel property node, but am not 100% sure and don't have a LV PC handy to check) to specify that the "ctr4 internal output" should be used as the timebase. Start them.
    3. Start the CTR 4 pulsetrain.
    4. Now CTR's 0-3 should generate separate clocks with synchronized phasing.

  • Syllable Counter Method sure doesn't work

    }And I know I'm passing the same String twice, but it doesn't seem to have any effect, and that's a placeholder for a future user defined String anyway.
    The result I get isn't an error, it's a big fat zero syllables. The code compiles just fine, it just prints a zero, so I've got a logic error in there somewhere. I've gone over and over this and have no idea where it is.
