Samsung TV Wiselink Won't Recognize Music Files on Touch

Just got a new Samsung DLP TV with Wiselink, which is a USB port on the TV that allows you to connect other devices to show pictures (jpeg files) and play music (mp3). I attached my Touch using a USB connector and the TV immediately recognized it and in fact named "Apple iPod" on the screen as the connected device. However, the TV said "no music files found." Anyone have a suggestion?

Ipod touch and other recent ipod models are not "USB Mass Storage Class (MSC)" devices and therefore the music files cannot be seen by Samsung Wiselink. If the files are in the hard drive part of an iPod that allows hard drive mode they will be seen as will photos.
Photos on an iPod touch can be viewed via Wiselink if they have been transferred via iPhoto to the folder that mounts under "devices" when iPhoto and the iPod touch communicate.

  • ITunes Suddenly Won't Recognize Music Files

    I have synced my iPod with my Toshiba laptop more times than I can count. When I opened iTunes this morning, iTunes did not show any of my music/podcasts, etc. After a moment of panic, I realized that everything was still on my computer and in my iPod, but it is as if this was a brand new version of iTunes. iTunes also "sses" my iPod, but will not let me change anything. I seem to recall accepting an automatic upgrade of iTunes recently (is this what I get for not using Safari?) but I think I have used iTunes since then. What gives? Do I need to reconstruct my library in iTunes? If so, will I lose my Playlists? Did the upgrade cause this problem?

    yes i can play them with other players. i've tried 6.0.1 still the same problem. i had cleared my library, files kept of course, and just added my music folder to the library. they were all there before. i think it won't recognize cds that i've imported using musicmatch and itunes in the past. does anyone know why? thanks

  • Lightroom (4.3) won't recognize the file type while importing from Canon 5d Mark iii

    Anyone mind helping me trouble shoot why my Lightroom (4.3) won't recognize the file type of my Canon 5D Mark iii ?
    I have seen this in a couple other threads but none of those suggestions worked for me. I am also a Mac user.

    The above contradicts with this:

    So my reading of that is that you ARE importing Raw files from the 5D3 into Lightroom, but having to use a roundabout route to do so. Is that correct? If so, how are you trying to import when you "cannot import raw files into Lightroom", are you using a card reader or direct camera attachment? Have you tried both methods? And what happens when you do try?

  • N96 Won't transfer music files

    My N96 Won't transfer music files even though it's a brand new phone with plenty free memory. 'Nokia Music Manager' just says 'There is not enough free memory in the device'. I've checked that it's the phone memory in use (E:\) but it still won't transfer.

    This is usually a problem with the default target directory in Music Manager, however you seem to say you've already checked this.
    Rather than waste a lot of time trying to fix this, I'd just copy the files either by connecting the phone via USB cable in Data Transfer Mode or by using a card reader if you're transferring to the card and drag and drop the files to the Sounds\Digital directory.
    I actually do all my transfers (usually well over 0.5GB a week in podcasts) like this: music manager's too much of a pain to use.
    Just remember to refresh/update your library once you've transferred the files.

  • Updated itunes to 11.3 on win 7 but had problems. so reinstalled itunes 11.2 but now itunes won't recognize or sync my touch 3 with 5.1.

    updated itunes to 11.3 on win 7 but had problems. so reinstalled itunes 11.2 but now itunes won't recognize or sync my touch 3 with 5.1.  did all the recommended fixes, appears have correct driver, all necessary itunes programs, etc.  still won't work.  help!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Itunes library too large and won't recognize all files, just new ones but

    still shows the old ones and their location in the library. I was keeping the library on the 2TB external drive. It got too large. Now I want to put the music on one of the 1TB drives and just the videos on the 2TB drive. From my PC, I can watch everything.
    I cannot download to an iPod or iTouch anything from the 2TB drive. When I hit max capacity, I temporarily started saving on one of my internal 2TB drives (space wh*re, I know)before I hit on what my solution would be, and now I can only download from that location. Why?
    What can I do? I even tried switching the library location back, and it won't recognize anything. I'm screwed, and I have all this material... YEARS of collecting...
    Someone please help me...

    To clarify, currently on the 2TB external drive are music and videos. I want to split them up and hopefully save some space - and maybe foresee problems in the future when I hit max capacity on the 1TB external, and think about a 4GB (not the best option I see at this time) or another 2 2TB drives.
    Doesn't the Library file just save locations when iTunes closes down so everything should be OK? I mean, the prog can recognize everything, it just won't download to anything, even if I move from the external drive an older movie to the new drive, it refuses to "see" the movie so I can download it.

  • IPods don't recognize music files on PC

    Our ipods can no longer find the music files on the PC hard drive.  We receive an error message that files can't be located, although they are still listed and visible in itunes.  (Itunes can't play them either.)  Have reset, restarted, etc.  Have checked and set the location of music files in the preferences dialog box.  Have copied music files to other drives, changed settings, no help.  We have about 7000 songs, but the iPods "see" on about 250.  Running Windows 7 on a relatively new Sony Viao.

    Ipod touch and other recent ipod models are not "USB Mass Storage Class (MSC)" devices and therefore the music files cannot be seen by Samsung Wiselink. If the files are in the hard drive part of an iPod that allows hard drive mode they will be seen as will photos.
    Photos on an iPod touch can be viewed via Wiselink if they have been transferred via iPhoto to the folder that mounts under "devices" when iPhoto and the iPod touch communicate.

  • ITunes wont recognize music files

    Windows 7
    Dell Inspiron PC
    Much to my regret, I moved music files and now itunes cant find them. They are simply transparent to itunes; not listed in the songs list.  I tried to change the iTunes advanced settings for file location to no avail.
    I managed to find most of the music files on my C drive using Windows Explorer.  When I click and play the music directly from WE, itunes launches and the song magically becomes part of the itunes library list of songs.  I have over 3,000 songs ...is there a simple way to get itunes to recognize all of them without a set of clicks.
    Thanks  for your help

    Open iTunes to Music view.  Then find the folder of songs and drag it into the open Music window.
    (If you normally run iTunes in full screen mode, make it smaller so you can find the folder and do the drag.)

  • IMovie won't recognize certain 'File extensions' ??

    Hi,
    can anyone help here. I use Handbrake to compress Movie files before I use Quicktime to 'export to web' option, then import to iMovie to then edit before submitting ti iTunes ( keeps the size down but still have good quality ). Anyway even though the files from Handbrake have either a .mov or .m4v extension iMovie won't recognize them, but if I then use QT export to web ( which in turn makes a folder with the new files inside ) which have the .m4v, iMovie will see it !!
    Any ideas please.
    The compressed file under Handbrake is small but good quality ( 2.3Gb down to 178Mb ) but if I use QT it then becomes even bigger ( 539Mb ) !!!!!
    Steve

    I'm new to Handbrake so could you tell me what do you mean by 'Don't include extraneous data tracks' ?
    Most people use HandBrake to convert DVD content (usually multiplexed M2V video and AC3 audio) to iPhone, iPod, TV, iTunes/Front Row files for viewing and/or iMovie '08 compatible files for editing. Since DVD content usually contains chapter data and the default setting for Apple device presets like TV normally default to include the chapter track data and (in older versions) may default to include an extra AC3 "passthrough" audio track, the output from such conversions are not supported by iMovie '08. If this is true, then re-exporting the content as you described would remove the extraneous data and explain why the files are incompatible with iMovie '08 before export and compatible after.
    However, you have not confirmed that the incoming files are, in fact, stored on DVDs or indicated which specific settings are being used for your HandBrake conversions. iMovie '08 is only "edit" compatible with files containing DV, AIC, Motion-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, and certain profiles of MPEG-4 or H,264 video compressed data. So there is always a secondary possibility here that you are selecting an incompatible form of output form HandBrake and then using the "Export for Web" option to accidentally convert the incompatible compression format to a compatible one since this option exports to H.264/AAC by default.
    If you have a much better way of doing this I am all ears especially if it makes my life easier, I am on a steep learning curve here ( sending video podcasts to iTunes but in good quality ).
    The normal approach would be to select the iPod preset within HandBrake (or within QT Pro, GarageBand, MPEG Streamclip, etc. if the source file is QT compatible) and convert directly to an iMovie '08 compatible file. The iPod preset would create a file equivalent to the "Desktop" (1500 Kbps) file created by the "Export for Web..." option but, as previously mentioned may contain a "chapter" track if you fail to turn it off. If you want a smaller output file, then all you have to do is reduce the target data rate in HandBrake. If you are currently editing the equivalent of the iPhone file (900 Kbps) using your current work flow, then reduce the target average bit rate to 900 or 1000 Kbps before exporting from HandBrake. Basically, this approach is faster since you do not have to export the data twice. On the other hand, it is a bit more complicated since you have to manually ensure any extraneous data tracks are de-selected and that the correct compressing preset/settings are selected.

  • Quicktime won't recognize MOV files?

    QT won't open MOV files, and gives a -2048 error that says it is not a file it recognizes. I know other people who are able to open the same files fine on their Mac computers, so I don't think it's a problem with the file...

    The -2048 error message usually means the file is MPEG-2 format.
    QuickTime can't view MPEG-2 without additional software ($20).

  • IPod full but now won't recognize any files; how to fix without "restore"?

    My iPod mini suddenly won't recognize any of my files or extensive playlists. I just uploaded several songs to it, and when I disconnected and tried to play it, it suddenly showed as completely empty, like I'd deleted everything. I plugged it back in, and while nothing shows up in iTunes with - no songs, no playlists - it says it's still nearly full.
    Reading another thread, I found the files on the iPod through My Computer. So they are still there, but for whatever reason the iPod, literally suddenly, can't recognize them as present. How do I fic this WITHOUT having to restore the iPod and then re-add those files (and recreate all of my playlists?)
    Please, please help!

  • Can't recognize music files on nano

    when i plug in my nano to my computer it says that it cannot recognize any files on the nano and that i need to use the ipod updater to do a factory reset.
    I tried a factory reset...a manual reset....and updated all the programs on my computer. I don't understand because my nano worked for the first couple days when i brought it home and suddenly it has no files on it and won't recognize it when i plug it in.
    The icon shows up on the desktop, but not in iTunes.
    anyone with the same problem?

    If you leave iTunes up all the time, you should probably quit iTunes. I've noticed that when iTunes had chosen not to recognize one of my iPods, nothing I do will change that until I quit out of iTunes. Sometimes iPods get "lost" due to preference corruption. Quitting iTunes or rebooting the computer will usually take care of that.

  • Rescue and Recovery won't recognize backup files.

    I have backup files on a usb drive, an ultrabay drive and the main hard drive and it won't recognize any of them. Anyone else have this problem? 
    -M 

    manusoft, welcome to the forum,
    attach the usb drive and then check it's recognised in BIOS. While you're in BIOS ensure that you optical drive is set as first boot device and place the boot disc you created in the optical drive. Save your settings and restart.
    The system will boot to the R&R on the disc and in theory you should be able to then install the image.
    Consideration; on the systems you move this image to the service partions will probably be no longer functional. I say probably as I've never done this with W7.
    Hope this helps

  • Why won't the music file I clicked and dragged onto my website publish?

    I followed all the instructions in iWeb for inserting a music file on a page, by clicking on the music file and dragging it onto the iWeb page of my choice.  Yet when I attempt to publish the changes, I get an error message saying "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider."  I've tried it numerous times, but always get that message.  I've tried changing the file name so that it does NOT include any spaces, but that doesn't work.  Then, I tried replacing the spaces with underscores, but still it won't publish.  Anyone have any idea how I can get this to work?

    To verify that it's not the music file publish your site to a folder on your hard drive and open it locally with your browser. Click on the site's folder and select Local Folder in the Publish To menu.
    Click to view full size
    If the music file is there and plays OK then do this:
    go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
    login with a bogus username and password like "test" and "test". This clears the caches.
    login with your correct username and password, launch iWeb and try publishing to MobileMe again.

  • Dreamweaver won't recognize some file extensions

    I recently switched from using Dreamweaver CS6 on a PC to using it on a Mac. The problem is some of the files I need to work with end in .yaml but Dreamweaver won't let me open those files. I read I need to add the extension to the Extensions.txt file located in Dreamweaver CS6 > Configuration. However, while I've added "YAML," to the beginning of the section ending in "...:All Documents", added a "YAML: Djando Files" line to the file, saved the .txt file, and quit and restarted Dreamweaver, it still won't recognize the extension.
    Thoughts?
    Chris

    Did you add it to the "Open in Code View" section in preferences?
