Slow display of shared playlists?

I stream Music and TV show playlists from my Mac to the Apple TV (connected via 802.11n, the Mac is GigE). I'm also syncing movies from another Mac.
When I go view the shared playlists initially, the Apple TV says "no playlists." After a few minutes, it displays the shows/episodes/playlists. This is true for both the music library (which is very large, > 250GB) and the TV shows (small, maybe 40 episodes).
Does anyone else see this problem? It doesn't seem to be size-related, because it happens on small and large lists.
Rebooting doesn't help...and diagnostics shows that everything is OK.
Any ideas?

Not sure I fully understand your problem, but with secondary (streaming only) libraries the tv needs to load them before it can use them unlike the synced library which is written to the tv during the sync process and is available at all times. Each time you switch libraries to a secondary library that library needs to load over your network.
The size does matter although maybe not as you might imagine, the library file is actually a small database file, it's not the content itself, although essentially it's a long list of your content. A library file with 100 movies occupying say 100GB will be considerably smaller than a library with 1000 tunes occupying say 3 GB.

Can't see my shared playlist in store anymore!

I spent many hours putting together a shared playlist of 50 sailing songs for the iTunes Store. I used to be able to see a link to this in my Account info. but no longer. Also, I can't seem to find it anymore in the store doing a search for "Top 50 Sailing Songs". Where did it go? I hope I don't have to do it over....!

We now have the same problem. From our iMac we can see our PC's iTunes library, but cannot load it; the progress bar runs indefinitely. The PC, however, can see the iTunes library on the iMac. This used to work.

Is XML Publisher causing shared memory problem..?

Hi Experts,
Since this week, many of the Requisition/PO are erroring out with the below errors or similar to these errors:
- ORA-04031: unable to allocate 15504 bytes of shared memorny ("sharedpool","PO_REQAPPROVAL_INIT1APPS","PL/SQL MPCODE","BAMIMA: Bam Buffer")
ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called.
-Error Name WFENG_COMMIT_INSIDE
3146: Commit happened in activity/function
'CREATE_AND_APPROVE_DOC:LAUNCH_PO_APPROVAL/PO_AUTOCREATE_DOC.LAUNCH_PO_APPROVAL'
Process Error: ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called
Few days back we were getting heap memory error for one of the XML Publisher report.
I heard that XML Publisher requires lot of memory for sources/features,So I want to know whether XML Publisher can be one of the cause for memory problem to occur or this shared memory is not related with XML Publisher sources at all.
Please advice.
Many thanks..
Suman

Hi Robert,
Thanks for your quick reply...
Apps version: 11.5.10.2
database version: 9.2.0.8.0
As I am a beginner in this so dont know much about this.. Can you please guide me on this.
DBAs has increased the shared memory and problem has resolved but here I am more concrened whether the XML Publisher was or can be one od the cause for shared memory problem. Is there any way to check that or this occurs randomly and we can not check this.
Please advice something.

Smart Playlist Problems (Since Ver 5)

I have come across a problem, which I believe started when I installed Version 5.
I have many SMART playlists set up that are really for my iPod usage. They are set to pick certain tracks that have not been heard in xxx amount of days, and usually set to a certain number of songs, or a particular amount of time.
The ones I use most often:
SLEEP MUSIC - a playlist of random songs not played in the last 5 days limited to 90 minutes. I listen to this when I go to bed.
WORK MUSIC - a playlist of 100 random songs not played in the last 5 days. I play this through my inMotion dock at work.
Previously, all the smart playlists worked fine. When the songs were played, the playlist would update on the iPod and the next time I would enter that playlist on the iPod, the tracks would be different.
It still works this way as long as I don't connect my iPod to my PC and sync with iTunes. If I do, it always resets the iPod playlists to the songs that appear in the iTunes library. I rarely use these playlists on the PC, so they almost always stay the same.
It seems like in previous versions, iPod would update the iTunes library and the smart playlists would also be updated in iTunes, so that the iPod versions of the playlists would continue to be random. But now, if the playlist is different on the iPod, it will not transfer over to iTunes. Instead, the iTunes playlist is copied back over to my iPod, and I keep getting the same playlists over and over.
This is a major annoyance, as I usually sync my iPod every day since I am constantly updating my library.
I've also noticed that when I synch my iPod, it is copying over songs that are already there, and it always seems to be copying songs I recently played in the iTunes library.
I know that if the tag info is changed, or I add album art to a track, it will be copied over to the iPod again, but I am not making any changes to these tracks, just playing them in iTunes. I don't know if this is related to the smart playlist problem or not.
I thought about unchecking LIVE UPDATE on those playlists that cause a problem, but that doesn't work, as now I'd ALWAYS have the same playlist.
So, my next thought is to use the "Only update selected playlists" option in the preferences to exclude those playlists that have this problem. If I do this, will new music I add still be copied over to my iPod?
Has anyone else encountered these problems?
FYI - I have not updated to the latest iPod update because of smart playlist problems people were having. I have version 1.1 on my 60GB photo. Would updating perhaps fix this problem?
My bottom-line thought on this is that iTunes updates the iPod, but the iPod no longer updates the iTunes library as it previously did. My reasons for thinking this are 1) The playlist problems I am having as stated above, and 2) I notice when I change the ratings on the iPod, they are not changed in iTunes. I am going to do a test and change the rating on a track on the iPod, then I will synch my iPod to see if the track is updated in iTunes, or the file is copied back to the iPod with the old rating.

Reagrding tracks being copied over again, I've seen another post in iPod Lounge where that person indicated the same thing. He stated that the play count was not being updated between the iPod and iTunes, but that the tracks were being copied over again. This sounds like a good explanation of this problem.
I have now noticed many of the tracks which I know I have played in the past show a "0" play count. Are the play counts kept in the iTunes library files (iTunes.xml and iTunes.itl)?
I always save the library files, so that when I reinstall iTunes I can just copy these 2 files back to their proper locations and I have my entire library intact - playlists and all. My music library is on a different drive.
Anyway, I KNOW I have played these tracks on the iPod, and yet they show unplayed on iTunes. This is probably another symptom of the re-copying tracks problem.

Need help with sharing - Can't see shared playlist

I have my songs on a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit computer. I turned on home sharing and selected a playlist to be shared. I'm trying access the shared content on a Windows XP and a Vista machine, but I cannot see the shared playlist. The Vista machine can see the shared content from the XP machine though. For a brief moment, I saw the shared playlist on the Vista machine, but when I clicked on it, there was nothing there. Then it disappeared. All 3 computers have been on for hours with iTunes running. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Windows 7. Maybe there's some network setting I need to change. I can access files on my Windows 7 machine from the XP machine. Same with the Vista machine. So the home network seems to be working fine. Thanks in advance.

I've narrowed it down to Windows 7's firewall. When I disable the firewall on my Windows 7 machine, I can access the shared content. When I enable the firewall, sharing immediately stops working. I checked to confirm that iTunes is on the allowed list of Windows Firewall.

Sharing playlist - how do I maintaining track order across the network

When I listen to the shared playlists on our local network at work, my Itunes automatically arranges the playlists into alpha order by artist. Can I change my settings so that the list is played in the order by which the person created it?
And how do I make sure that when others play my shared list, it stays in the right order?

It sounds like you are doing the correct labeling but that is the only way to change the display order in iTunes in the general library. Remember all the album names will have to have the identical name in order for the disc number to have an effect. Even tiny differences can be big, and album labels coming from Gracenote can be inconsistent. Make sure you don't have something like "No. 1" and No 2"
I have never had this issue with ripped CDs but have had other tracks which were problematic.
Check this Aug. 2008 post by turingtest2 about temporarily changing labels - https://discussions.apple.com/message/7904806#7904806 - This often works but I have had cases where tracks grouped when a letter was added but ungrouped when it was removed again.
If they are mp3 files try changing the ID3 tag version which may cause iTunes to re-write the tags and clear up inconsistencies. I use iTunes 7.5 (yes, from 2007) so I can't tell you where this is in later versions.
I had one case of really stubborn grouping. The tracks would re-group in ways that didn't make sense when I changed metadata. Without going into detail, I deleted the tracks completely from iTunes, then re-added the files and they all grouped correctly.

Creative MediaSource Playlist problems!!

(Creative MediaSource Playlist problems!!i Hello!? I am having a huge problem trying to add music to my playlist that I created using MediaSource (I have a 30GB Zen Vision M)
I'll create the playlist, but it is only saving the last track(s) I added to it.... for example:
I add "Human Touch", "Walk of Life" and "Sultans of Swing" at the same time
Those three songs show up on the playlist
Then I'll add "What's love got to do with it" by itself
Playlist now only contains "What's love got to do with it"
I should note that I recently had to perform a system recovery (since my computer crashed but I didn't lose any data). I have the latest firmware for my Zen Vision M and the latest version of the Creative Media Source Version 3.30.35)? Any questions please ask!
Thanks!

, I would suggest using the Zen Media Explorer for your device to make & edit playlists. It is on the install disc. MediaSource is not that good. Of all the Creative software the Zen Media Explorer for each player is one I do use often for this reason.

Users automatically remount my shared playlist when I launch iTunes?

I share my music here at work and I think it's fun to see how many people are listening, because I share a different playlist every day. Lately however, I've been noticing that as soon as I launch iTunes, even if I check immediately, there are always 2 users logged on to my shared music right away. I'm pretty sure it's automated because I can quit and restart iTunes multiple times and there are always 2 users connected.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? My theory is that someone found a third-party app that automatically remounts my shared music on their iTunes whenever I launch my iTunes. Other than that, could it be some kind of monitoring that the IS department at my work is doing? This one has really got me baffled. Thanks for your help.

No, because when you launch iTunes, you can see available shared playlists, but it doesn't automatically connect to them. You have to click on a shared playlist to connect to it, (there are usually 8-16 of them to choose from here) and then there is a little eject symbol next to it once you have connected. There is no way to automatically connect to them when you launch iTunes. Anybody else?

Delete Shared Playlist?

I've got a weird shared Playlist on my iPod. It's password protected. I don't believe I put it there. I'm thinking it may have been on a computer I plugged the iPod in to charge on? Anyway, how can I get rid of this thing? It's annoying. None of my passwords are working...does that mean it's someone else's password? What gives?

Go to the EDIT menu, and select PREFERENCES. Then click the SHARING tab, and remove the check from 'Look for shared libraries' checkbox.
See if that helps.
Cheers!

PLAYLIST PROBLEM: I did a playlist and after synchonising with my ipod, the order of the songs changed both in itunes and in the ipod. In itunes the order came alphabetically and in ipod randomly. I wanted that playlistto be played in the order I made it for a party.
Now I don't know what to do.
Thank you very much

Plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane. This brings you to the Summary tab. Locate and click on the Music tab. What configurations do you have made from under this tab? Is your iPod configured to sync those playlists?

Create a shared playlist between iTunes accounts?

Can you create a shared playlist between 2 iTunes accounts? It would be easier if I could copy songs from one account to the other. However, when I am on the MBP and open the shared account on the iMac, I can see and play the iMac music from the MBP, but I can't seem to be able to transfer songs.

Ford Voice Control & iPod playlist problems

Ford Voice Control & iPod playlist problems
I am having problems with the voice control system and my video ipod (5th gen) in a new Ford Focus Coupè-Convertible which also has Bluetooth phone conectivity ( works great with my iPhone 3G) as well as USB & Voice Control
This is all done through a Sony audio unit (model Sony 6CD DAB) which has a Six disc CD changer built in, as well as the usual FM & AM Radio bands as well as DAB Radio.
My problem relates to the voice control of my ipod and playlists.
Now some commands work just great For example if I say the following sequence ( which the unit repeats back to me at each stage) it works great:
"External Device"
"iPod"
"Play"
All works well as it starts playing whatever playlist the iPod was in prior to connection to the unit, or if no playlist had been selected it just plays the whole contents of the iPod. - It also works fine with the commands "Shuffle" or "Repeat".
But according to the user manual I am supposed to be able to play or select a specific playlist by voice command using the following syntax as quoted from the manual:
'...create playlists named with the structure "Ford<*>" where <*> is a number 1-10. For example "Ford7" without any spaces between "Ford" and the number.
So I made several playlist called
Ford1
Ford2
Ford3
and so on up to Ford10.
Now according to the voice commands list I should say the following phrases which like before, are repeated back to me by the system:
"External Device"
"iPod"
"Playlist"
Then the unit responds with
"Playlist Number Please"
Then according to the manual I should say the following:
But when I say either
'Ford1'
Or
'1'
Or any right up to 'Ford10' / '10'
It responds bystating that playlist number (X) not available.
I have also tried with the quotation marks ("") around the name eg "Ford1", but that has not worked either.
So I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this problem and knew a solution, or could tell me where I am going wrong.
Although my car is a UK model, I believe that this voice control system is available with Sony units in American cars as well.
Hope you can help as this is driving me nuts!
Thanks

Hi Drusus.
I also have a European Ford (Focus ST - 2009) with the same problem.
Have you found any solution to the problem, or know if its possible to contact Ford...?
Cheers.

Specific Music Files Not Playing Using Shared Playlists

I have over 3600 music files in my collection, and of those, about 44 will not play using the shared playlist on other machines. There is nothing between the files that is common that I can decipher. Some are *.m4a files, some are *.mp3 files. However, all will play in iTunes on the host machine and will play fine on the myriad of iPods that I have. If an attempt to play is made, the song information comes up in the heading on iTunes (song name, duration, album, etc...), but the song never starts playing. Any help or insight would be most appreciated.

Hi
What happens when an agent puts a caller on hold is nothing to do with the UCCX server, prompts on the UCCX server, etc...
What is played is controlled by the 'User Hold Network Source' configured on the agent's line, handset, device pool etc; and which MoH server it is played from is determined by the MRGL assigned to the 'listening' device (e.g. gateway typically).

Aaron
