Problems with music app after upgrading to iOS 5

i'm very particular with the organization of my ipod stuff. it has to have album art and it has to be properly sorted out by artist and album. after upgrading to iOS 5 i found several problems with the music app:
1. some artists dont show on the artist section. i've tried fixing the album artist info, sorting info etc and nothing.
2. some albums duplicate themselves in the albums section and it only gets cured if you delete a certain song in the album. if you try putting the song back the albums duplicate again.
3. some album art dont show. i've tried plugging in the album cover directly to the song/s in the ipod, and deleting the song and recopying the song from itunes and still nothing.
anyone care to weigh in?
did i mess up the installation?

I just spent hours trying to solve same (I have a iPod Touch 4th Gen) and I am very picky about its organization too. What I can tell you:
1- The artists suddenly not showing in the artist section:  Double-check that their albums are not marked as "part of a compilation"... because I had 8 artists disappearing after the upgrade and all their albums were marked as "part of...". After removing that "compilation" tag, all 8 artists reappeared where they had been all along under the previous iOS, namely under the Artists category.
2- I had an album that did not want the artwork to show. And each time I was able to transfer it back with the art, it would duplicate tracks on the iPod Touch. I finally was able to solve it by deleting manually from the iPod the album (by slowing dragging my finger to the right on the album title and click on the delete button when it appeared) then by deleting it also from the iTunes library and syncing. Then I reloaded the album in iTunes and resynced on the iPod Touch and the album reappeared without duplicates and with the artwork.
3- Finally, one album was correct (track-wise) but no artwork. I double-checked everything and manually check the info for each track and 2 tracks had not artwork attached to it and a 3rd had 2 artworks. I manually attached the correct artwork to each track THEN to the whole album. Then I resynced and everything FINALLY worked fine.
OUFF!

  • Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

    There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
    I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
    I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
    I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

    I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
    I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
    I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

  • No sound from the 'Music' app after upgrading to iOS 5

    After upgrading to iOS 5 I went to play music in the new 'Music' App. However, no sound came from the iphone (3gS) athough the songs continued to play. Has anyone encountered this issue and how have you resolved it. I thank you for responding to my question.

    Hi Guys,
    I have post eariler on another forum and I have the same problem, I have tried all the things listed here and nothing was perminant in fixing this painful iphone hating problem.... and failed.  You probably have the problem when you use youtube or your music external speaker that there is no volume bar and no sound.   I have had the same problem But I need to happily say that I now have the fix!!!!  This worked for me and I fixed it by myself so you don't need to go to apple or service centre or anything.
    Ok I like so many of you here truly believed this was as IO5 issue as it only dropped the sound on the speakers once that IO5 update came along.  I tried a bunch of reset, reboots, home clicks, lock and unlocks, to fix this and all failed.  some worked for an hour but then failed.  hours of my life that I will never get back.   but since I have learnt this is not a IO5 problem but a hardware issue! ...  and in paticualar is has to do with your bottom connection.  Your phone is thinking it is docked all the time.
    To fix the no sound problem what you need is...
    1.  a torch
    2.  a tooth brush
    3.  methalated spirits
    4. a butter knife
    Step 1.
    get your torch and shine it down the bottom connection plate to see what kind of dust, sand, hair or anything you have stuck in there.   all that need to be removed!  everything!  it might look clean but still thats ok go to step 2.
    step 2.
    Turn on your music app and put the speakers on!  If your phone is like mine it should not work.  you most probably don't even have the volume display to turn it on but its ok, just do it! and it should still play with no sound.   its important you try and run the speakers as this will show you that it is a hardware problem.
    step 3.
    Dip your tooth brush into some methated sprits.   then at your sink tap the exess metho out of your brush as you just want the brushes to be slightly damp, not soaking wet and then scrub the bottom connetiors on your iphone.  work the brush back and forward in a way that scoops the dirt out of the phone, not just pushing it side to side.
    (As you bushing you should notice the volume bar come back on or off as you scub.   This happened to me and that is how I realised I was on the right track to fixing this problem as I was doing something external that was actually controling when the volume display came on or off.   but once I cleaned it this still didn't fix the problem...)
    Step 4.
    Use the back side of a butter knife (not the sharp side) to gently slide over the connectors on the iphone.  Do this gently as you are only pushing down on the tiny metal contect bars and you should notice the volume display come on again.  slide it back and forward.  Now the area of interest is about 2/3 along the connection plate to the right.   This is the area that has the infomation sent when your iphone thinks its docked.
    This has worked for me and I have not had a problem since I did this 2 weeks ago.   I have since learnt that the new IOS 5 has activated a different part of the bottom conectors.  if you have been using dodgy connectors or unapproved apple cables (as I was)  any damage or hair and dirt on the terminal this is effecting it.  Try it.   just remember if you can do something external to your phone then there lies the problem.
    Hope this works for your phone as it did for mine.
    Cheers

  • Reception problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

    AFter upgrading to 4.2.1, my 3GS iPhone is experiencing bad signal, bad quality and frequent disconnections.
    This was repeated even after my provider replaced my device to a different 3GS device, running 4.2.1.
    inserting my SIM card to a NOKIA phone, showed strong signal and good reception.
    Did anyone experience reception problems on 3GS running 4.2.1??
    Thanks,

  • Problems with music player after upgrade to V20 (N...

    I upgraded my phone last week to the V20... And now when i go to transfer music through music manager it will not refresh the music library? Anyone help? When i press refresh it just freezes and i have to turn it off when turned back on i can then access the music player and play the music, but if i try to refresh it again it just freezes again and then i cant get into the music player at all, needs to be turned off again, is this something to do with the upgrade?
    Is there anything that can be done to resolve this?
    Thanks in advance
    Message Edited by geof on 10-Jul-2008 05:35 PM

    I had the same problem with v20 but if I waited for like 5 min. it finally refreshed itself. It was pretty annoying so I formatted the memory and hard-reseted the phone. Now it's OK. However I noticed that if you use the PC software to restore the phone's setting, chances are that you'll have problems. So I use it only to restore messages, calendar data and contacts-never to restore the settings so be sure to unmark this option.

  • Has anyone been experiencing problems with "Restore Purchases" after upgrading to iOS 7?

    I've been having problems with restoring purchases on a majority of apps that I have previously downloaded and purchased IAPs. I've only successfully restored purchases on one app (Warhammer Quest); but other apps, such as "Legendary Heroes" (On which I spent $20 to unlock everything), no longer restore my purchases. Instead the "Restore Purchases" button prompts me to buy one "Remove ads" purchase. Some apps, such as Trinity Interactive's Tiny Legend Monster Crashers and Call of Mini Zombies do not have a "Restore Purchases" button at all. Has anyone else been having this problem? And even so, is this an issue with iOS 7 or just an incompatibility between the apps themselves and iOS 7? I've put way too much money into a bunch of these apps to have to repurchase everything all over again.

    I would recommend using the SEARCH function of the forums and locating the many others posts that have already discussed this issue.

  • Problems with current location after upgrading to IOS 5 for IPhone 4

    I have an Iphone 4 and upgraded to IOS 5, but now my current location isn't working? Any suggestions?

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.
    Go through these steps sequentially until your problem is solved.  If after these 4 steps you're still having problems, then you likely have a hardware issue and will need to bring your phone into Apple for replacement.

  • Problems with downloading movies after upgrade to iOS 7

    I can't download the movie via WiFi to my iPad3. WiFi broad band 20 Mbps
    iOS 7.1.1, free memory 9.6 GB. Downloading keeps failing after reaching 3-4 GB loaded. Sometimes displaying an error "the item can't be downloaded this time". It has never be a case with iOS 6. Very frustrating.

    Same problem for me after the update. No matter what movie I try to download, it stalls halfway.  Interestingly, could be a wider iTunes issue as I ended up with the same problem trying to download movies to my MacBook Air.

  • Problem with Terminal.app after upgrade

    Hi,
    I just installed Tiger over Panther. Everything went and seems just fine, except:
    When I try to run Terminal, I see:
    You are not authorized to run this application.
    The administrator has set your shell to an illegal value.
    I am not sure I understand from the message what is the problem:
    a) Not authorized should mean Unix user permissions, right?
    (In Finder's info window, I see :
    - you can read/write
    - Owner: system
    - Group: admin
    - Access: r/w
    Seems bad as I am supposed to rwx, but that I guess is just Finder-specific simplification:-).
    From the other hand,
    b) an "illegal value" (whatever it is - say /bin/mabooka) should be possible to just change - ?
    How?
    The Terminal is not giving me any options except "Quit".
    The box is single-user, the admin is myself...
    Please help if you saw something similar... Thanks!

    Thanks Ali,
    It was hard to find the solution in search list, but it was there.
    The correct answer is:
    ================
    Re: Terminal: Not authorized to run app... shell has an illegal value?!!

    Helpful
    Click on Terminal.app to select it, CMD+I, and check the ownership and permissions. It should show that you have R&W. If so, then drag ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist file to the desktop, log out and back in, and try launching it again.
    ================
    Also it was entertaining to read and then use Netinfo Manager:
    Using this utility, I've found that my shell was set to "bin/tc" (instead of /bin/tcsh, as I set it years ago on Panther).
    Apparently:
    1) there is a bug in installation (who else could change "tsch" to "tc"?!?);
    2) there is a bug in the message ("You are not authorized..."): -- nothing to do with authorization.
    In any case, the problem's been solved, many thanks.

  • I can't update my apps after upgrade to iOS 6...?

    I can't update my apps after upgrade to iOS 6

    Are you sure you have a proper Internet connection? Make sure your iPod is connected to your computer, and you have an Internet connection.
    Don't even get me started on the iPod Touch 5G, I actually own an iPod Touch 4G, and I've considered a lot about if I should get the new one. At first look, you might be sold by the features Apple has on their iPod Touch page. It has a taller screen that's a 4-inch Retina Display, has a much better camera with a flash, and comes with iOS 6 preinstalled with Siri. But the real breakthrough comes with the new connector. It's called Lighting, and it's much smaller. But if you have a dock connector that comes with some cars, and maybe a set of speakers or docking stations as alarm clocks, I encourage you not to get the new one. The usage of your old connectors requires a $30 adapter, which is a ridiculous price. And who knows how secure the adapters will be with your docking stations? I personally think Apple has crossed the line. If they are to put a new connector with their new products, they should ship with an adapter in the box, at least at first. This is why I strongly encourage you NOT to get the new 5th generation iPod Touch.
    Sorry if I went a little off-topic there, but I wanted to get my point across. For your updating to iOS 6, I reccommend you check out other discussions in the support comunity, and see what other contributors have to say. Or go on Google and search your error messages, possibly someone might've already went through the same problem as you did. I really hope this helped!

My HP Pavilion Desktop has 504 MB of Ram and I am using high speed internet connection. Because it was crashing so much, I used the uninstall program for Flash player to uninstall Flash, I checked my registry and removed anything I saw that was Flash.

I went to the Adobe website and had them check to see if it was working and it shows I have FlashPlayer 10.3.181.36. The page that shows  which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play. When I do start to play it freezes frequently and I use escape to free it up. This has been going on for a month. I have no idea what to do. I am not very computer savy and I have been learning as I go.
