Re-following an artist in Ping

Hi,
I've activated my Ping account in iTunes 10. Then started folowing Lady Gaga. Then stopped following Lady Gaga. Now, when I want to re-start following lady Gaga (call me indecisive) I click the "Follow" button, but iTunes/Ping says I'm already following her. Obviously I'm not.
Anybody got a suggestion how to solve this?

I did exactly the same. When I try and follow her again, I get the 'We couldn't process your request. There was an error in iTunes store. Please try again later.' message.
Am going to give Ping a few more days, then if no improvement, probably turn it off for a while until various bugs are fixed.

Ping - I don't understand? How to follow an artist?

Windows 7 Professional / iTunes Ping
I'm trying to give Ping a try, and I've done searches for Jeff Beck, John Mayer and Tal Wilkenfeld in the "Search for People or Artists" box. I get hits for Jeff Beck and John Mayer, but the results appear to be followers not the artist. How do I get to the artist? Is the artist population on Ping weak at this point?
Side note, the Ping page appears to be dead at the moment, won't move off page 1 of "Artists we Recommend"? Thanks for your help, IM

The artists or their record companies, yes. With thousands of artists, the iTunes Store can't possible do it all themselves, and some artists may not want to have their own pages, so a page must be requested, though I have no doubt that Apple's urged particularly prominent/popular artists to get on board. And with that many artists, it will take time for every artist who wants their own page to get set up.
Regards.

Ping doesn't remember people I follow

So I downloaded iTunes 10 immediately when it became available, the Facebook API was still there but not working, it gave the error that the connection to Facebook could not be established.
Looking around, I started following two artists out of the handful options provided, just to see how Ping was working. As expected, I saw posts of the artists I now followed.
Next time I checked, the Facebook button was gone. (I'm not sure what to think of Steve's suggestion to invite friends by email instead ...)
Now Ping doesn't remember the artists I followed anymore. To be precise, it remembers them in the peoples tab with a number, in my case (2), but the space below that had their posts is now empty.
The Ping landing page now says I'm not following anyone yet. So I go ahead and follow the same two artists as before, but I get the error "You're already following this artist". ???? And even If I were, I still don't see their posts under "Recent Activity". Log out » log in - no difference. Oh, my ...
At this point Ping has lost all credibility for me, it's simply not working. This is a first for me with an Apple product.
What do others think about this issue?

Here are two screenshots (I just figured out how to post images), any help is appreciated!

Notifications for followed artist is not working

If you follow an artist and new music is added to Spotify you are supposed to get a notification in "the bell" in the right corner. This usually works for albums and singles (not for "appears on").
Well , for the last three weeks, this feature does not work and there is really no point in following an artist.
Anyone else?

I suggest you contact support so they can take a look at your account and see what is going on:
https://www.spotify.com/about-us/contact/contact-spotify-support/
If you get an automated reply email telling you to check the help section or the community, you need to reply back to it.
Support usually replies within 24-48 hours.

Changing Browser to Album Artist?

Hello,
I've got iTunes 7 on my PC and have a question about Browsing by Album Artist:
Can I change the "browser" (turn-on-and-off-able bit at the top of the main song selecty window) to work off "Album artist" instead of/as well as Artist?
Just to fill in what I already know, and to help people who are confused or stuck with iTunes organising things into folders where they don't want them stored...
I have worked out so far that I can fill in Artist and album artist (as I always did in WMP to keep things organised) so I can put Various Artists or the DJ/Compiler/Record Label in Album Artist, and the actual Artist in the Artist hole.
I also noticed that I need to check "Compliation" to make it store it in my HDD under Album artist so it doesn't confuse the **** out of me by spreading everything around into individual song artist directories and stuffing me live when DJing and looking for a particular "record" using Atomix Virtual DJ (which goes by the file structure in windows).
In the main window view I can sort all music by album artist by clicking on that title in the complete song list of all music, (and it being a "compilation").
Also in the big CD cover browsing view (which is nice btw!) it sorts by album artist. Yay! Marvellous!
However, because I have loads of CDs, sometimes if I'm not having a browse and want to go straight to a CD I'd like to be able to use the 1st or 2nd browser view. If I want a Blue Note Compilation, Various Artists, any of my soundtrack albums, or DJ/Record label compilations I have to scroll all the way up and down the long list. If for example I wanna listen to "Keep it solid Steel" by Mr. Scruff, if I choose him in the artist box it won't have anything off that album as it's a compilation by him, and will only show his own songs. WMP will go by Album Artist (even though it actually says Artist in the left Colum on the new WMP11 beta), but I'd rather use iTunes as it seems faster and nicer generally (and has useful things like the backup option). If iTunes does this it'll definitely be my media player of choice.
If this isn't possible, any chance of iTunes 8 being able to select what options you can sort by at the top of the browser?
The only way I've found is to type "Various", "Warp", "Blue Note", etc. in the search box
It seems very frustrating to me if you can't, especially since like all media players iTunes comes with "Genre" which seems far less useful amongst the widely varying crossover artists, styles, and vibes, that music comes in! Can anyone tell me if Lamb are Dance, Drum n' bass, Jazz n Bass, Electronica, Trip-Hop, Hip-hop, Trance, Soul, Pop, Alternative Pop, Jazz? Heck, today I discovered a handful of new musical genres including "Wonky Trance" and "Clown Step"! (see wikipedia if you don't believe me!)

Bollocks! No, it doesn't work nicely as they all appear in the wrong track order! Doh!
I noticed other people have brought this up before in the forum.
I sent a feedback to Apple. Here it is for those of you having the same problem, or who agree, or who don't understand what I'm on about:
Hello,
I've just changed to using iTunes a few weeks ago as it has some nicer user functions (was previously using windows media player) and it's making me very frustrated...
I store all my albums (well over 10,000 tunes I've collected for YEARS on CD!) by the way they come on the CD; by Track Artist for the Artist and Album Artist for the Album artist. Normally for e.g. Michael Jackson, Artist and Album Artist will be the same. For compilation/DJ mix ablums this means the Album Artist will be Various Artists, the DJ/Production Crew, or Record label as applicable. If, for example, I want to listen to my Jazzanova Remixes album I can sort by album artist, choose Jazzanova, and get all the tunes on that album, whilst artist points out who each individual track is by (that Jazzanova remixed). Likewise, if I scroll to "various artists" in album artist I'll get compilation albums, or a particular DJ/collective such as by Mr. Scruff, Blue Note records compilations, etc., etc.
Also this applies to artists where the album may be one artist, but each song artist may be that artist + another, e.g. Artist being Eminem & Dr Dre, Eminem & Dido, Eminem (feat. Joe Bloggs), etc., whilst the Album remains filed under the "Album Artist" of Eminem so I don't get millions of "X with/featuring Y" artists and spreading my albums out in a big mess.
The problem of iTunes filing them in different artist folders for each track on that album on my harddrive can be overcome by making them a "compilation", then it seems to store in Compilation instead.
However, it seems to insist on filing secondarily by artist, not track number/and album, when album artist is selected. This then messes the list up completely as, if I use the artists "Coldcut" as an example, when I go to Coldcut as an album artist it displays the beginning of the "Journeys by DJ" album by coldcut (album artist) from "track artists" alphabetically A->C until it gets to the Coldcut songs on it, then has a completely different coldcut album (Sound Mirrors) of which all tracks are written by Coldcut and the album artist is Coldcut, then finishes the "Journeys by DJ" album by coldcut with the rest of the track artists from Coldcut->Z!
The only way around this seems to be to file by album, then scroll all the way through loads of tunes to get to that particular album, defeating the idea of an easily organised music collection!
This problem is made worse by the fact if I have "browse by compilations" on to help, and use the browser at the top, Artist only chooses by track artist. I then need to go to Compilations and (assuming I remember it's called "Journeys by DJ" since I can't go straight to Compilation Artist) click on the album, from a list of all my "various artist" and DJ/remix/record label compilations.
At this point it gets worse as having chosen the album (for the sake of this example "Journeys by DJ" by Coldcut) all the tracks then appear in track artist alphabetical order since it's either still being browsed by Album Artist as I would have had my records diplayed by that to begin with and it sorts secondarily by track Artist. Alternatively it could be sorted by (track) "Artist" since I'd browsing by compilation. Regardless since I would have narrowed it down to one album with the browser function so "album artist" will all be the same for all tracks, it makes no difference - it is going to be listed alphabetically by track artist.
This means therefore, that unless the album is alphabetically sorted by artist to begin with it comes up in the wrong order!!! Therefore when you play your lovely expertly DJ mixed compiation you bought on CD all the crossfades between tracks don't happen as the album's in the wrong order!!!
You can get around this by then clicking displaying "Track number" too. This seems silly though as normally in a normal view it already shows them at the front of the track listing. You therefore have to have them displayed twice, and then after going into compilations, choosing the album, you then have to sort by track number each time! If you do this, whenever you go back to the rest of your albums they then have all the track 1's first, then all the track 2's, and again you have to change what you sort by (Album Artist or Artist) to make them sensible again!
As you can imagine this is a pain! It happens with all my Various Artist albums, and various other DJ artists such as Mr. Scruff, and soundtrack albums, or record label compilations too!
The obvious possible answers to this problem are:
a) when sorting by the column "Album Artist" make it search secondarily, after Album Artist, by album then track number, then finally "(track) Artist" after that (in case there are no track numbers!).
b) make "artist" in the browser search by "Album Artist" not artist. This is what Windows Media Player does (even though it actually says "Artist" in the broswer), and goes by track "Artist" if there is nothing in the "Album Artist" tag field. it will then search by album and track number, but not Album artist followed by Artist. The browser could also be set to search in both Artist and Album Artist fields to save me having to go through all my 40+ compilations to find an album I know is by coldcut or Mr Scruff. If it did I could just turn "Browse by Compilation" off in preferences and get the same effect. Regardless to stop the wrong ordering it needs to not organise by Artist secondarily if I have it organised by album artist.
Whether the "Artist" in the broswer does Artist/Album Artist/or both could be set in preferences? Also this could change it to file in folders on the harddrive by Album Artist too. I'd far rather have my Coldcut, Jazzanova, & Mr. Scruff, etc. albums in Coldcut, Jazzanova, & Mr. Scruff directories, so when I browse my harddrive it's obvious who they are by rather than apparently being by "Compilation"!
Regardless iTunes should try to put things in the library view in order of Album and track number as much as possible when I have it organised by Album Artist. As mentioned I had been using WMP 10 & 11 beta until recently, but I changed as iTunes seems to work faster and smoother, and has the handy backup feature and seemless playback so I made the shift. The seamless playback made me instantly go to try DJ mix albums to hear them seamless, hence why I became frustrated very quickly!
Also I intend to get a Mac as my next computer so I won't have the option of WMP!
Another thing I noticed was the "Remember position" tag under the "get info" section when you have multiple selections. I wondered if this could change the order it plays them in but didn't seem to do anthing and can't find mention of it in the help or on the forum! What's that for?
If I'm being stupid and there's an easy way to make it work let me know, but I've tried as many things as I can think of, but I think it's reasonable not to have to keep changing the way everything is displayed in the library view to find an album and play it in the right order. I want it to work like the pile of CDs on my shelves and appear as I got them in the record store! If not Microsoft might have finally made something that seems to work in a more user friendly way than Apple, and that can't be right!
...as you can see I also pointed out that it might be nice to be able to get iTunes to file my Mr. Scruff, Coldcut, Jazzanova, etc. compilation/DJ albums on my hard drive by the Artist who released them (or by "various artists"); the same place I'd find them in the record shop I bought them from, and the main name on the album cover of the CD!
I DJ too (using Virtual DJ) and hence DO care about where I find these files on my hard drive, and would like to be able to find them based on the Album Artist! Also when I copy tunes over to my MP3 player, again I want them filed like the CDs I bought them on! I'm not just wingeing about this point for no reason. Obviously you don't care where they actually are stored on your HDD if it's only ever iTunes you play files with, and own an iPod where it automatically copies files for you, but it makes a big difference to me!

EEM applet does not support extended ping ?

Hi does anybody know if EEM applet does not support any extended Ping in a cli action ?
This works:
action 1000 cli command "ping ip 10.161.255.5"
These statements does not work ?
action 1000 cli command "ping ip 10.161.255.5 repeat 10 source Loopback0"
action 1000 cli command "ping vrf TESTVRF ip 10.161.255.5 repeat 20 source Loopback0"
I found another possibility how to achive extended ping in EEM like following
event manager applet ping
event none sync yes
action 100 cli command "enable"
action 101 cli command "ping" pattern "[ip]"
action 102 cli command "ip" pattern "address"
action 103 cli command "10.161.255.5" pattern "count"
action 104 cli command "20" pattern "size"
action 105 cli command "100" pattern "seconds"
action 106 cli command "2" pattern "commands"
action 107 cli command "y" pattern "interface"
action 108 cli command "Loopback0" pattern "service"
action 109 cli command "0" pattern "header"
action 110 cli command "no" pattern "data"
action 111 cli command "no" pattern "pattern"
action 112 cli command "0xABCD" pattern "Verbose"
action 113 cli command " " pattern "size"
action 114 cli command "n" event manager applet ping
bu there is also no way to specify the VRF ?
Any Ideas ?
Thx
Hubert

Hi found failure,
extended ping needs to be executed in priviledged mode, so need to enable in advance , then it works
thx Bruno for the hint

Unable to ping across subnet

hi
i have a solaris system
hostname sun
router (IP) 10.xx.xx.1
IP 10.xx.xx.20
network id 10.xx.xx.0
mask 255.255.255.0
where problem is
i can't ping from solaris machine(sun) to any PC across the subnet ( with IP as well as name).
resolution
--> /etc/defaultrouter is in order
--> network card is properly setup and running
--> can ping any system on local subnet including router(with IP ! DNS is across the subnet).
--> can ping from other PC's(win) on same subnet to systems across subnet using same default gateway settings
( that is routing settings at router are okay) .
--> netstat -r (shows following output )
sun% netstat -r
Routing Table:
Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface

--> it takes unreasonably long time to set default interface for multicast during boot.
any suggestions where the problem could be.
thnx
garry

Hi garry
Yes you cannot ping with name unless you dont include that system's name and ip in the host file.
Due to the following reasons, you cannot ping ip across the subnet :
1. The pinging ip may be in a different vlan for which you dont have any access.
2. The default gatway has to be added which is accessable to other subnet also.
To over come your problem :
sample diagram of your problem
sub net 1- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
you are here |
sub net 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - route - - - - -dns / internet
|
sub net 3- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
is this n/w diag ok.
still you have any problem check the ACL of the router.

Increased download speed = increased ping

Hi,
After some wrestling of biblical proportions with BT Technical and having had 5 engineers out since January a faulty section of cable was replaced last week. This has led to three changes in our broadband service, two good, one very bad.
1. The download speed increased from around 0.98 mb/s to 2.10 mb/s - Great.
2. Incoming phone calls no longer caused the broadband connection to reset - Great.
3. The ping has increased from a steady 48ms to 96ms - Bad.
For info I have a Home Hub 3 with Option 3 package and the above numbers came from www.speedtest.net. This issue is of particular annoyance with XBox-Live which is now virtually unusable following the increase in ping. The XBox is set up for port forwarding and in the DMZ and is connected to the hub through an official wireless adaptor.
Any assistance with this would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

I see you are still online while you are waiting try the command prompt ping-The easiest way to check ping is to open the Command Prompt on the PC and type "ping (ip Address or Website)". Example:
ping www.google.com
I take it your PC is wired!

Error ping

Hello,
I have the following problem :
I can ping my Wan ip addres, everything works fine.
I have an IP range that connects to the same Wan port but when I ping to an IP address in this range I receive an error :
TTL expired from
How can I fix this ?

If you ping the IP address of your partner's serial interface, it should work; the ping will go to the partner, and the partner will reply.
If you ping the IP address of your own serial interface, it should work: the ping will go out to the partner and back to you. You will generate a reply that will go out to the partner and back to you again.
If you ping another IP address that is in the same subnet as your serial link, but is not the IP address of either end, the ping will bounce backwards and forwards between you and the partner until the "time-to-live" expires. This is normal behaviour; there is nothing to fix.

What do the thumbnails/icons of your friends on an artist's page represent?

On a computer, when you're on an artist's page, to the right of the page there sometimes may be little circular images of your friends. I was just wondering what do they mean? I'm pretty sure they don't mean that your friend follows this artist; and they can't mean that your friend has listened to that artist's music because I should see them more often. So I was just interested to know why they're there and what they mean?

Hello Tejas,
After reading your configuration I can see that the crypto-maps are applyed to the outside interface, and the Access-list for the interesting traffic has both networks (Managment and production) so you should be able to access the other network from this site.
Can you do the following packet tracers to see the features the ICMP packet is hitting when the Request is sent.
I will need the output of the following commands:
1- Packet-tracer input Mgmt icmp 10.11.34.15 8 0 10.30.6.15
2-Packet-tracer input Production icmp 10.11.35.15 8 0 10.30.6.15
Please rate helpful posts,
Julio!!

Wireless outage (IP only) for 5 minutes, every 15 minutes

Hey everyone,
I recently moved to the UK from the US, and in the process gave up my Airport Base Station for the much less friendly BT Home Hub. Since doing so, I have been having some very annoying problems with the wireless connection that I did not have before.
Essentially, what happens is that I lose IP connectivity (cannot ping the gateway, or get to the internet), but the Airport menu icon/Network Connect reports I am still connected to the wireless network, and there is no change in reported signal strength. I took a look at it with iStumbler, and there is pretty much no difference in signal/noise or any other readouts when the dropout occurs - the "wireless network" appears to be up, I just don't have IP connectivity.
Turning the Airport card on and off restores connection, but doing this every 15 minutes is very annoying, of course. If I wait 5 minutes with no IP connectivity, it comes back, once again with no corresponding change in signal strength.
This may be a result of the change in wireless access points, but there are some things about my particular situation that makes me wonder if it might be something related to my PowerBook/Airport card. Firstly, while I was moving, I was housesitting for friends, using a wired ethernet connection, when I installed the Airport security update and iTunes 7, so my configuration has changed since the last time I knew it to work well (I have since upgraded to OS X 10.4.8 and iTunes 7.0.1 over my intermittent wireless connection, but I have had this problem since before doing so).
Secondly, and more importantly, I have noticed an incredibly regular pattern to the outages. Specifically, the times I mentioned above are pretty much exact and consistent. Since I started having the problem, I opened a terminal window and ran a continuous ping of the gateway, and my results are as follows:
Every 895-900 pings (i.e. seconds), there is an outage, which lasts for 296-297 pings/seconds. So, for example, there is an outage at icmp_seq=1025 (895 sec after the last outage), and the ping command then recieves its next response at icmp_seq=1321 (296 sec). There is then subsequently an outage at 2221 (900 sec after the last outage) which resumes at 2517 (296 sec), etc., etc.
What makes this especially interesting is that, as I mentioned above, if I turn the Airport card on and off I get connectivity back. The connection then lasts for 900 seconds from when I turned the card back on, not from the last outage. So the outage seems come specifically after 15 minutes of having the Airport card on and connected, rather than the WAP giving up the ghost every 15 minutes regardless of what's connected to it.
The WAP is running in 802.11g mode with WPA security using WPK encryption. The SSID is not being broadcast. This is a modification of the original BT Home Hub settings (64-bit WEP encryption? No thanks) but pretty similar to what I had on my Airport Base Station. The WAP's event log shows nothing out of the ordinary, and looking at the device during the outage doesn't really show any problems. If I plug into the wired port while I'm having one of these 5 minute outages, it works.
I have also tried changing the wireless channel it runs on, but this has no affect.
I don't have any other computers/devices in the flat so I can't test whether this outage is universal or specific to my computer, but I was wondering if anybody else has experienced a similar problem? Is there any way I could narrow it down more between the WAP and the PowerBook? The regularity of the outage, and the fact that IP gives out, but I don't get disconnected from the wireless network seems to two very tantalizing clues.
Thanks,
Andrew

I am still having this problem and am starting to get really annoyed by it. Since my last posting, the following things have happened:
1) Last Thursday, I turned my Powerbook on and experienced a full day of work at home with a consistent wireless connection. Nothing had changed in configuration on either the router or the Powerbook. Then, at night, I turned my computer off, turned it on Friday morning, and again experienced dropouts every 15 minutes, for 5 minutes exactly.
2) By this time I had already called BT and complained, and they were kind enough to send me a new hub. I got it today, took the old one down and set it up (via ethernet cable) with the exact same settings as the old one, and then connected to it via wireless - I was able to connect successfully with no interruptions. Then, I shut my computer down to go out for a few hours. I am now back, and since booting my computer, I now once again only stay connected for 15 minutes at a time!
So, it now seems to be only 95% consistent, instead of 100% consistent, but I am really beginning to suspect my Powerbook, since it seems to be behaving differently on different boots! Please help? What can I do to isolate this problem? As I have demonstrated in my previous posts, I have already looked at iStumbler, etc. and am still having the same exact problems, even with new hardware!
