Problem copying music to iPod after recent update

I had no problems before I updated my iPod software when transferring songs from iTunes to my iPod. Now I get a message "Some of the songs in iTunes music library were not copied to the iPod Because your iPod software is too old."
I need help because what is the point of downloading any music if i cant get it on my iPod ><
Its funny because the software is up to date.
iTunes version6.0.1
iPod 2.2 (and recently did the 2005-10-12 and 2005-11-17 updates)
It says up to date in my software/ipod updater
G4/1G Mac OS X (10.3.9)
G4/1G Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi sorry to hear you having problems , just checking wbut did you upload the latest firmware too on the ipod ? if you haven't maybe that may be why it won't let you update .. only a suggestion =o>

Can't copy music to ipod ("cannot be updated... unknown error (-50)"

Well, the last month has been pretty much a nightmare with my beloved ipod (60gb with video, and I'm using a Powerbook G4).
My immediate problem is this: after transferring about half of my music onto my ipod (which I'm doing from scratch, because of another issue that will come up later in the post), I got an error message saying "The ipod 'Disco Stu II' cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-50)." I click ok, and am stuck here. I cannot eject my ipod - when I try to, I am told that "it contains files that are in use by another application" - although I'm not running any other programs (except, currently, Firefox). When I click "ok" to that, the first error message recurs. When I close itunes and move the ipod icon from my desktop to the trash, I get a message saying that the disk is in use and could not be ejected. Relaunching Finder doesn't change this. Reopening itunes, nothing changes. It's possible that if I restart the computer, I'll be able to eject the ipod, but this also seems like it might end up doing more damage.
The larger problem: this type of thing has been happening often recently. A few weeks ago, I was copying music from an external hard drive onto my ipod, when itunes suddenly quit. I don't remember all of the details, but I got a message saying the ipod couldn't be read or written to. I said ok, ejected the ipod, and to my horror found that it was now empty. When I plugged it back in, itunes gave me a single option to restore the ipod. I called AppleCare, who walked me through an alternate version of restoring (unfortunately, I don't remember the details here either). I was then able to put music back on my ipod, and for a few weeks it worked okay. But last night I had my ipod plugged into my laptop's usb for charging, and while my back was turned another error message (I think this was another "cannot be updated"), and again I was stuck with a single "restore" option, so once again, I had no music on my ipod. Which is why I'm trying to refill it now, without much luck.
Other possibly relevent stuff: earlier tonight, while my ipod wasn't connected, itunes caused a kernel panic. I thought (hoped) that this meant my copy of itunes was the problem, so I trashed my copy (as well as my itunes preferences... but are there other things that I should also be trashing?) and downloaded and installed a new version. Apparently this wasn't the solution, since the immediate problem happened after I installed the new version.
Any help appreciated. This is the kind of thing that makes me want to cry, or throw things.
Adam

Update: I restarted the computer and, surprisingly, itunes could read my ipod and was able to transfer music to it. I still received one or two of the "unknown error" messages while transferring the rest of my music (carefully, less than 100 songs at a time). However, I'm still unable to eject my ipod either through itunes or finder. I was only able to do it by restarting again. Knock on wood, the situation seems tolerable now, but I expect to be living in fear that my ipod will stop working for the next few weeks. Any wisdom would be appreciated. thanks!

Problems with login on iPod after auto update of S...

My father-in-law "V" uses Skype on iPod. Recently Skype auto-updated and "V" could no longer login into his account. I tried to help, sending his email on file to Skype and getting instructions on how to reset password. I suspected that he just forgot right spelling of his PW. Email came from Skype with instructions on resetting PW, but I noticed that Skype name mentined there is almost right. Almost is because it had extra "1" in the end, which "V" did not have. I had to delete and re-install Skype on his iPod to make it work. I tried to use his correct Skype name in Login space and new password, but it did not work. Then I used his name with extra"1" at the end as in Skype's email and newly changed PW. And it worked, but surely enough, all his contacts were gone.
How can we restore his login to right name which he always used? This, I assume, would solve problem of vanished contacts. How come his Skype name suddenly changed without "V" himself doing that?

In reference to the linked article I already had the ipod options set to automatically update the podcasts for selected episodes. I just set it to manual and back to automatic, perhaps this will fix it. The mysterious podcasts playlist has appeared twice today for me so far.

[solved] sudo and yaourt problems after recent updates

After recent updates (past week) yaourt started giving me problems. When using yaourt it prompts me for sudo password but it does not seem to use my sudo configuration.
I get this:
[sudo] password for root:
[sudo] password for root:
Password:
su: Authentication failure
Password:
When entering mine or root's password I just get prompt again. The last password is for su, which when I enter root's works.
It seems sudo is not using /etc/sudoers configuration either, as I have things like insults enabled and it used to work previously.
Any reason for this?
sudo works fine otherwise.

Problem solved from prior post. Firefox had become blocked somehow by McAfee firewall. Set to full access. Now works perfectly.

My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back? Can I somehow undo the update? Thanks

"UPAD lite?"
I expect that you mean some version of iPad.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

No music on iPod after sync

I've been having a problem with syncing music to iPod gen4 and and iPod gen3 for some time now. There are similar issues reported in a variety of questions on this forum: after syncing, apparently successfully via iTunes, you disconnect the iPod and the iPod appears to have no music on it. However, I have not been able to find any that present to me a working solution, nor have a found a discussions which shares particular details of the situation that I am experiencing.
After a "no music on iPod after sync" experience, the iPod will no longer function properly after this, and you have to put it into disk mode in order to connect to the computer and "do a restore." The first time this happened, I didn't know about restoring, and actually discarded the iPod (a gen 3) and replaced it with my first gen 4. Now I have an additional gen 4 (my 2nd), plus I also purchased a used gen 3 to replace the one I threw away. Each of these three devices has experienced the problem, and I can get the device functioning again after restore. All the devices seem to be in good working shape and serve me fine; I do not believe that any of them has a hardware problem such as failing hard drive etc.
The problem of "no music on iPod after sync" can be created in a repeatable fashion by choosing the appropriate set of playlists to sync. I visited an Apple Store genius bar twice now to discuss the issue, and the conclusion was that there possibly was a "corrupt file" that was causing the problem. However, I can also reliably sync the music by splitting it into smaller pieces. For example, suppose I have a group of 20 playlist folders, and I choose to sync the first 10. This can be done without problem. If I then choose to sync the last 10 but without the first 10, this also can be done without problem. However, if I sync all 20 together, then I get the "no music" screen on the iPod after the sync. So I can load and play all the music files involved with my problem. What seems to be associated with the occurrence of a "no music" event is the volume of songs that I sync.
I am working with a large number of audio files organized into a large number of playlists arranged in a somewhat large number of playlist folders, some nested inside others. I suspect that a cause of the problem may be the large number of files and/or playlists and/or folders.
For instance, in my latest experience, I worked with a collection of files that I have sitting all together in one playlist folder, that itself sits inside a higher level playlist folder.. In this collection there are 4358 "songs" (the audio files aren't actually music) occupying 1.68 GB of memory. So I have one playlist folder (level 1, let's say) that contains within it a playlist (sub)folder (level 2) that has within it 36 playlist folders (level 3), each with a set of playlists inside that together account for all 4358 songs, without any repetitions of the songs between playlists. Some of the playlist folders contain as many as 206 playlists. The playlists vary in the number of songs they contain; I think there are some with just one or two, and I now there are some with at least 32 songs.
Anyway, with the above described collection, I can sync the first half of the set of level 3 playlist folders without problem. I can sync the second half of the level 3 playlist folders without problem. But if I sync all together, I have problems.
Any ideas as to what's going on here?

Verify you have the itunes/ipad music tab set to sync music and the correct playlists selected.

HT3775 Quicktime no longer plays wmv files after recent update

after recent update, quicktime will not open wmv files. had no problem opening them up in the past. reinstalled flip4mac codec and nothing. don't want to use quicklime player 7 b/c need to use fast forward option that will not work with QT7. Any help is appreciated.
thank you,
Damian

I ended up on the phone with an Apple iPhoto expert after scheduling an appointment online (go to Apple support). He spent an hour or so diagnosing my particular problem and was able to fix it. I can once again view all my mov files in iPhoto. Since every computer is different, you might want to try that route. He was able to view my computer screen and direct me to do different things.

Try finding MSVCR110.dll file on internet and replace it in the path C:\Windows\system32\MSVCR110.dll
hopefully it works...

After recent update to Mountain Lion, trash won't empty completely; says "item" inuse

After recent update to Mountain Lion, trash will not empty completely. Always an item left in trash, and I get message that the "item is in use." Right now, using app Trash it! to get rid of that left behind item.

Try rebuilding Trash and see if that sorts it...
Launch Terminal and copy & paste these commands:
Go to /Applications /Utilities/Terminal and launch it.
At the prompt, copy and paste this command
sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash
Press Return.
You will be asked to enter your admin password. It will be invisible.
Enter it and press Return.
Log out and back in or restart.
Let us know.

Cannot sign in Acrobat XI after recent update

After recent update, cannot sign in Acrobat XI even after changing enhanced security settings

To get iMessage and Facetime working you have to goto "settings > General> reset > erase all content and settings"
After iphone reboots go thru setup like a new phone but chose restore from iCloud backup. Choose "see all backups" and chose one before you installed ios7.
Usually iPhone backs itself up when locked and plugged into charger so there should be a few to choose from.
The phone doesn't have to be pluuged into iTunes for this but probably should be connected to charger.
Don't wait on Apple. They seem to think there is no problem.
