Problem re-syncing to AppleTV

I am using AppleTV for something a little different than what it was intended for. It is on a corporate LAN and is synced to a folder in a network directory (through a user's iTunes who has permissions to access the directory). The folder contains images which are displayed as a slide show and distributed to several displays throughout the building. The images change week to week.
It all worked fine the first week, but when I went to re-sync the folder to upload the new images, it acts like it is syncing, but does not transfer any files. I can get it to sync to new folders, but cannot re-sync the same folder with different images. I also tried copying those images into an iPhoto album and syncing that, but that didn't work either. These are all tiff images created in Photoshop, and I've checked all of them and they all look fine. Any ideas?
    Multiple PCs/Macs on a corporate LAN

This is maddening. After deleting the iPod Photo Cache folder, the following week everything worked as it should: I stopped the slide show, re-synced the folder with the updated images, then restarted the slide show. Wonderful!
Then I go to do the same thing this morning, and there is no AppleTV in the Devices list in iTunes. I've done -- again -- all the steps in the Troubleshooting Apple TV not recognized in iTunes article (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305003) to no avail. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!
Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • Problems with syncing  Adobe Ideas with Adobe Creative Cloud

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    Since yesterday (22.04.2014) I have problems with syncing Adobe Ideas (in my iPad) with Adobe Creative Cloud.
    Could you please help me with this issue?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello,
    I do not understand why there is no professional communication about the problem. I get the impression that Adobe doesn't know that many people use their App as advertised: As a quick professional sketching tool that syncs with Creative Cloud. Not to fix the problem means more people not trusting the cloud idea. I am actually a big fan of the CC, mostly because of regular updates. But the mobile apps seem to fall out of the normal update scheme. Are they not as important as the 'main software'?
    When will the bug be fixed? Just to make clear: As there - up to now - is no other way to get the original idea files on the computer the adobe idea app is useless unless you fix the problem and/ or include the possibility to sync files via USB.
    Meanwhile my Workaround:
    You need Phoneview or another software that shows the files on your mobile device.
    Open it - choose "Apps" - click on "Show all Apps" - click on "Adobe Ideas"
    Than go to:
    Library/Private Documents/documents/data/files/
    there you find folders with cryptic names
    Download one of the folders
    Open the Folder
    select all files in the folder and zip them
    Change the extension from .zip to .idea
    and voila
    you can open it with Adobe Illustrator!
    A long way, but for now the only solution to get the editable vector file on your computer.
    Best regards

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Maybe a long shot, but WD is not known for the quality of some of their enclosures, although I do like the drives themselves. It may be worth mounting this drive in a different enclosure, something like one of OWC's FireWire enclosures with the highly reliable Oxford chip sets. I wouldn't be inclined to trust a WD enclosure, especially if it already seemed to be acting in a flakey manner.
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEP924FW8E2O/
    I have 3 of these and I really like them.
    From what I understand, if the drive spins up, it is often possible to recover data from it. To be absolutely certain to destroy the data, you just about have to take a hammer to the disk. Hopefully, there will be a way to get your data back.
    Good luck!

    No, it does not.  It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer.  The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

    Are they selected to sync?  Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

    What does that have to do with syncing content to the device?  FYI, nothing.

    I have problem with syncing in itunes and it stared since i installed new version of itunes.it stuck in backup step for houres.what shud i do?

    So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct?  Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order?  Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
    If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe. 
    The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver.  If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details).  When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
    There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
    See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver.  The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

  • Problem with syncing ipod

    Hi, I just bougt the new ipod and am experiencing problems when syncing my music. when transferring my library (10gb) the progress bar in itunes freezes at random and does not continue transferring songs. everything works perfect with my nano, that's why i suppose there should't be anything wrong with my imac. anyone have a similar problem?

    I'm experiencing the same exact issues with a brand new iPod and a 40 gig iPod non Photo. iTunes will copy tunes along to a random point - stall - and then machine locks up until iPod is disconnected. Upon disconnecting iPod it becomes corrupt and needs to be reformatted (flashing folder error, etc.).
    This is the first issue I've ever had with an iPod and I think there must be something software/firmware related that is plaguing us.
    None of the disk mode tricks work consistently either - it's just a loop until you finally get all the tracks to copy over.
    Apple "Genius" told me that the hard drive was bad on my 40 gig - but now that I see the brand new out of the box 1 hour iPod is also having troubles over USB I think there's more to this... help!

  • Problem with syncing AD users (LDAP)

    I am running into a 'problem' with syncing users from ad. I'm pretty sure i'm doing something wrong but i can't figure it out.
    When i sync manually the 'pop up' shows that it's synchronizing and after a few seconds it tells me "OK". But there are 0 users imported.
    http://www.dualdude.net/bm/run_ldap_sync.jpg
    The connection and credentials to access the AD work since they are also used for Zarafa and Samba AD synchronization. The AD is running on an Windows Server 2008 Enterprise x64 machine.
    This is a screenshot of the configuration used:
    http://www.dualdude.net/bm/ldap_config.jpg
    Any thoughts on what i'm doing wrong?

    I got the same problem when using groupfilter:
    User Filter: (&(|(objectClass=Person)(objectClass=orgPerson)(ob jectClass=inetOrgPerson))(groupMembership=cn=users ,ou=org,o=firma))
    Group Filter: (&(|(objectClass=group)(objectClass=groupOfNames)( objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames))(|(cn=G4)(cn=TC*)) )
    Do you use groups for the allowed users in teaming?
    >>> lnijhuis<[email protected]> 14.01.2010 16:36 >>>
    Thank you for your reply. I guess the comma's should be right. When i
    change the first "ou=" in the Base DN to "cn=" the error message states
    that the best it can do is reach
    ou=OrganizationalUnit,dn=domain,dn=local. So i guess that shouldn't be
    the problem?
    By default there is a container "Users" in AD, which we don't use. The
    person that configured the server created an OU on the same level as the
    default container. THe name of this OU has a space in the name, like
    "Organi Zation". This OU contains another OU called Users. This is where
    the users are located. When i run the ldap query i don't get any errors
    about the base DN. It does when i change it.
    The full filter is:
    (|(objectClass=Person)(objectClass=orgPerson)(obje ctClass=inetOrgPerson))

  • HT1296 Have a problem with syncing. I get this message: The ipod Bill's Ipod" cannot be synced because there is not enough space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.4GB required) I don't understand as I have much more space than 2

    I recently ran into a problem with syncing my ipod touch to itunes on my Windows 7 pc. It had previously been synced to my older laptop
    and I wanted to change to my newer Windows 7 laptop's itunes library that I had already been syncing with.
    Anyway, I started seeing this message that prevents my from syncing:
    The iPod "Bill's iPod" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library
    (additional 2.48 GB required)  
    Not sure if it is talking about my iPod free space or my PC itunes library free space. Either way I have 11.0 GB free space available
    on my iPod and 412 GB free space available on my Windows 7 PC.
    How do I handle this problem?   Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks

    It is saying that the iPod does not have enough free storage to sync all the items yu have selected to sync to the iPod. You need 2.48 GB more free on the iPod. You need either to select less to sync or delete some content form the iPod.

  • Problems with syncing my ipod

    Yesterday I updated my iPod tot 1.1
    After that it had that crappie bug with the video's, so I downgraded my iPod. After that I updated it again tot 1.1
    Now I have a problem with syncing my iPod (video's only).
    First I had some series it synced with my iPod, also after the first update. But after the second update it tells me there are some files it couldn't sync. (some videos it did sync btw, and the problem with the sound has gone, I can play movies normal now!)
    So the problem is now that it doesn't sync all my movies anymore, and I converted all of them with the same program..
    Anyone has the same problem or knows how to solve?

    Mijn advies: terug naar versie 1.0. Tenzij je versie 1.1 nodig hebt, natuurlijk (voor radio o.i.d.). Of wachten op versie 1.2
    Ik heb zojuist versie 1.0 geherinstalleerd, en alles werkt nu prima. En telkens als iTunes vraagt of ik de nieuwste versie wil installeren klik ik op NEE.

    No problems about the further questions.
    The term EHCI roughly means "USB 2.0 host controller". So pretty much any modern nVidia chipset will have one of those. So the issue ends up boiling down to whether or not you've got an nVidia chipset, I think.
    I went searching through the HP Support forums, and I found a user-supplied FAQ that suggests that you do have an nVidia chipset. See Daniel's second post in this thread (the one on chipset drivers):
    [Windows7 Upgrade Guide for dv6000/dv9000 models|http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Operating-systems-and-software/Windows7-Upg rade-Guide-for-dv6000-dv9000-models/td-p/179816]
    ... but "suggests" isn't quite the same thing as "confirms".
    I'm thinking it might be worth posting over at the HP Support forums and asking if you have one of the HP models that requires the update for Windows 7 described in the following post. (The update in question is actually the same as the Microsoft hotfix I linked you to earlier.)
    [Driver update for Win7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available|http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for- Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipset-systems-now/m-p/188193]
    (Not trying to get rid of you here ... I just want to get you on the radar screens of people with a bit more specific knowledge about the chipset on your particular HP model. I figure the HP forums would be a useful place to go for that.)

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • HT1386 Change of order in playlists. Problems after sync

    I have my ipod classic for many years, but recently encountered problems after sync. Itunes changes the order of tracks in my playlists. I want them be ordered by album, but itunes ordered it by "ticked". I tried to change it before sync. First this seem to be work, but now the order is again wrong. I find this really annoying, because "ticked" seemed to mean to be similar to "by name" of tracks. This does not make any sense for my music.
    Any ideas, what I can do?
