Some songs are louder then others, can I balance the volume?

  Windows XP Pro  
My nano plays songs at different volumes for some reason, I have to constantly adjust the volume level. is there a way for itunes, or ipod to level the volume?

Hello rhufnagel,
I am pleased that you have found the dicussion forums tailored specifically to your product.
In regards to your inquiry about your iPod Nano playing songs at different volumes, yes it is possible to have your songs play at relatively close volumes. Here's how:
1) Go to the Main screen on your iPod. To ensure you are at the correct screen, press the "Menu" button on the ClickWheel. If the screen menu's do not change, you are on the right screen.
2)Select "Settings." Find the Sound Check option. Highlight it and press the Select button. Make sure that Sound Check it is enabled.
This should solve your problem. If it doesn't, please don't hesitate to post again with further inquiries.

  • How come some podcasts are loud while others I can barely hear?

    I enjoy listening to podcasts while at work.  I work in a place that does not allow head phones nor does it allow for a stereo.  I use a small iHome speaker. The Red Eye Radio podcast has a perfect volume level, while the Billy Cunningham podcast, Bill Burr, and Stuff you should Know podcasts can barely hear at full volume. How come the volume is so different from show to show.  Can't there be some kind of podcast/broadcast standard.  I enjoy all these programs but find myself only listening to the ones I can hear.

  • HT5517 some sounds are loud then quiet

    I have a problem while watching movies.  Explosions, city street scenes, sirens etc. are blaring loud to the point of uncomfortable and the voices are so low you can barely hear them.  I heard somewhere before that there is a setting somewhere on the appletv to control volume by equalizing all sounds but can't figure out where the setting is or if it is even accurate.  Please help.

    imperios,
    I notice you mention setting the audio setting in WinDVD to 7.. Well, try setting the option in WinDVD to SPDIF option instead and set the soundcard decoder to use installed decoder in Control Panel->Audio HQ.

  • When I use the "snapshot tool" some images are very light. how can I adjust the brightness....

    I have windows 7 and Acrobat X Pro.
    When I use the snapshot tool I cannot figure out how to adjust the brightness on that image? On my old computer a picture tollbar would pop up. A lot of images are very light and I need to darken them.

    My not be much you can do. However, I would just clip them into my favorite image tool (in my case IrfanView) and adjust there.

  • My computer froze during match initial formatting.  Now some songs are uploaded others are "greyed out."  If I go song by song, I can update match.  How can I do this all at once and also update album art?

    Hi gdogk,
    If there was an interruption during the initial iTunes Match process and you are now having issues with playback and album art, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful. In particular, you may want to turning iTunes Match off, then back on again, as noted here:
    If iTunes Match is already enabled on your computer or device, try turning iTunes Match off and then on again.
    Mac: While holding down the option key, choose Store > Turn Off iTunes Match.
    Turn iTunes Match on by selecting Store > Turn On iTunes Match.
    Windows: While holding down the shift key, choose Store > Turn Off iTunes Match.
    Turn iTunes Match on by selecting Store > Turn On iTunes Match.

  • ITunes Match is having errors d/l songs to my iPhone 4s. Then I can't delete them, and it says some songs are playing when they aren't. I've restored my iPhone, same issue.

    According to this article  Using iPhone on an airplane  you should be able to listen to music with Airplay Mode enabled.
    Make sure you have Music switched on in Settings > Store or your music won't download via Wi-Fi.

  • Hey why does some songs seem to be louder then others?

    Hey why does some songs seem to be louder then others? This is mostly noticeable between downloaded vs Imported cds..  Or is it my imagination?

    It isn't your imagination, you'll find that older recordings have lower gain and will sound softer. You can use sound check to somewhat balance this out if you want.

  • How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs?  Some are louder than others.

    How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs?  Some songs are a lot lower than others.

    Coverflow in iTunes is sorted by Album Artist whereas coverflow on the iPod classic is sorted by Artist. Unfortunately, there is no way to set this on your iPod. This is such a fumble on Apple's part that I'm beginning to think they're becoming another Microsloth with buggy firmware and products.

  • Can I labled the same song to more than one albums? As you know, some songs are repeated in different albums.

    You can make a copy of an existing song, then change the album, artwork and track number details. You cannot make the same physical file show up in two different albums.

    You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not seem to be related to. Is your question concerning iTunes Match or syncing with iTunes via USB?

  • Hi, I set up my new iPhone S4 with iclouds. So the data of my old S3 should move to the S4. However, some applications could not be loaded on the S04. Now some apps are loaded and others not . How can I progress?

    Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
    I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
    BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

  • HT3964 Backlit keyboard: some keys are brighter than others. Can this be fixed?

    I spilled a small amount of liquid on the key board, but I quickly dried it and everything works fine except the keyboard. Some keys are brighter than others, what should I do?

    Hope that it is the only problem that you will have with your MBP.  Liquids have a habit of quickly migrating and you may or may not have gotten it all.  I would take it to an Apple genius bar and have them check it out.  That does not mean that your MBP will not suffer a premature death.
    As far as the keyboard is concerned, pose that question to the genius bar technician.. I suspect you will be told that the only way to rectify the problem is to install a new one.
    Ciao.

  • When my ipod is plugged into my computer music disappears, sometime it tries to upload songs, clears my playlists, and can't locate the songs files. All the same songs are in my Itunes library on my computer. What can i do?

         When I plug my Ipod into my computer it shows all my songs on it as reloading onto the device,
    and sometimes it can't locate the files or they are just gone. All my songs are in my Itunes library
    on my computer, and I do have it in my settings not sync the Ipod with my computer so I can
    manage the content myself. It has happened multiple times.
          I have cleared my Ipod off as well as my computer, and put all the music back on without seeing
    any improvement. And as of today when I tried again it shows some songs on there but with 3 copies
    of the same song trying to upload onto my ipod. And have of my playlist where empty. I am getting
    frustrated and don't know what to do. Help.

  • Some songs are not longer available and an ! exclamation mark appears before the song. What should I do?

    Some songs are not longer available and an ! exclamation mark appears before the song in iTunes. What should I do?

    When you open iTunes it opens a database file that contains the locations of the media files you use to play the music.  If something has happened to invalidate where iTunes thinks that file is stored you get a !   There are many possible reasons.  Sometimes a computer can start to lose files.  In other situations it is something you did such as renaming a folder or drive iTunes uses, or moving the files manually.  If you can give us hints we can start working our way down the long list.
