The rating stars are stuck on my screen.

I have the 30 GB model. When I press the middle button to go to the "my rating" screen, if I change the rating, even if I change it back, it stays there. Then the stars go off to be replaced by themselves, but it gets louder as it would if you rub the wheel like on the regular bar. The only way to get the starts off is to reset or connect the ipod.
Help?

Extending the rating stars

I was wondering if we are allowed to extend the rating stars which is currently at 5 stars to 10 stars for example. I would like to, but I don't know how.

If you reaaly really really must use 10 stars then you could use a web app... Theoretically, there is no reason why it wouldn't work. Caution!- It will require quite a bit of time but to start you off, here are the ingredients...
-1 Web App,

-Some javaScript and CSS

The charging display is stuck on my screen

The charging display is stuck on my screen and it won't do anything! I can't turn it on or off or anything else. What should I do?

Are you by any chance using iTunes 7.0.2 and firmware version 1.2?
If you are then I would surmise that you are the victim of a bug in the firmware (if you look at the forum there are thousands of people with the same issue)
Unfortunately for us users Apple appear to be burying their head in the sand on this one because there has been no official recognition of the problem, meanwhile people are continuing to download the firmware, oblivious to the fact that this will render their precious and much loved iPods completely useless.
This is clearly a completely cynical policy by Apple because they know that publicly admitting the problem would seriously harm their sales in the busy Christmas period.......POOR SHOW APPLE!!! THIS WILL HARM YOU MUCH MORE IN THE LONG TERM.
Fear not though, they will not be able to hide it for long because I know that the BBC are investigating this.

when changing the batteries in my keyboard, the old batteries are stuck at the bottom of the battery tube. Help.

Well kathw, when I had this problem with a battery, I tried everything to get it out; finally ended up at a genius bar. There I learned that I could not retreive the third battery because there wasn't one. I had just gotten a new keyboard and did not know that they take only 2 batteries. I thanked the genius for not laughing at me, took my keyboard and went home.

HT4623 Hi I'm new to ipad. I know I have downloaded from the App Store sky go, iplayer, itv player, 4OD etc but when I want to watch them I cannot watch. In the App Store I cannot select 'free' and the app icons are not on my screens. Please help

Hi
I'll write here too as this is the first time I've done this too. I'm new to ipad and I'm having trouble with icons appearing on my ipad after I have downloaded them. These are all tv based -sky go app, iplayers and on demand. I have installed them previously but since then there are no icons on my ipad to select. When I follow the link to the App Store to download, the 'free' tab or the price tab cannot be selected. Please help

Hi there,
Thank you so much. I said I was new to ipad lol. I put restrictions on about a month ago and have been ripping my hair out since. Wish I asked on here first lol. Are there any simple steps of advice you could offer or maybe an idiots guide lol
Thanks again and best wishes..

ITunes bug? Rating stars won't click-drag left-right anymore

The latest iTunes patch (v10.1.0.54 running on Windows 7) seems to have an annoying bug: When I'm rating a song, it immediately takes my initial click, regardless of whether I hold down the mouse button -- whereas I used to be able to click in the area where the rating stars are, hold down the mouse button, and then drag out the stars to the rating I wanted, e.g. 4 stars. Now, however, iTunes ignores the fact that I'm holding down the mouse button and sets the rating at whatever position I initially click, e.g. 1 star.
The reason this is a super-annoying problem is that I only ever listen to smart playlists that filter out songs with low star ratings. So now as soon as I click a song to rate it, if I happen to initially click less than a 3-star rating, it immediately disappears. After I'm finished cursing at the computer, I have to go find the song under my general Music Library and re-rate it so it will show back up in my "smart" playlists. Grr.
Incidentally, I was able to drag the stars as normal one time -- but other than that one instance, it has not worked at all since the most recent patch. Please, Apple, please please please fix this bug. It's causing me a serious headache.

UPDATE: This bug only affects iTunes configured to allow half-star ratings.
I normally have my ItunesPrefs.xml file configured to use half-stars, with this line:
<key>allow-half-stars</key>
<data>
dHJ1ZQ==
</data>
After testing removal of the line, the click-drag on whole stars works normally. So it appears this bug exists only for those who only use half stars.
Is there any hope of Apple fixing the click-drag problem when half-stars are enabled?

My Rating Star Error

I am on a PC/XP and the rating stars do not show up when i try and create a Smart Playlist of ratings from say "*" to "***". It just shows a black bar instead of stars. This has persisted in the last 2 versions of iTunes. Very annoying. The stars do not show up in the rating area if i do a "get info" as well but they do show up in the track list. I can not edit this "black bar" area but i can edit the stars in the track list. It is merely a black bar where the stars should be. i can not make the bar smaller to represent a smaller rating. I can not create an accurate smart playlist. check it:
i have even tried to edit the XML but there is some weird garble that represents the "Smart Criteria". ???????????

How to view rating stars on pictures in browser or split view

On an Imac aperture v3.2 I cannot see the rating stars on the pictures in browser or split view. I can only see them if i open the metadata for each individual picture. Does anyone know how to turn this feature on? My husband has a Macbook pro using the same software and he can see them.

The ratings are part of the Metadata Overlays (link goes to User Manual page with full instructions). There are seven different Metadata Overlays. It is helpful to customize each of them. The customization is done via "View→Metadata Display→Customize".
The Browser Metadata Overlay is toggle on/off with "u". "{Shift}+u" will toggle the Browser Metadata Overlay between "Basic View" and "Expanded View".
What is most likely is simply that either your Browser Metadata display has been toggled off. Try each of the toggles above, and see if that doesn't bring back the ratings. If it doesn't, you'll have to add them back to the Metadata View using the customize command above.

Rating Stars Gone

The rating stars no longer show up when in browser mode. I can see them in full screen mode. I assume I accidentally changed a setting. How do I get the rating stars back?

Hoe can i get my rating-stars from my iPhone to my iTunes ?

Hallo,
to my fixed disk went defectively, could I by timemachine my albums again manufacture, however unfortunately not the rating star.
How do I get my assigned asterisk now again into itunes?
I have my stars only on my iphone and if the iphone is connected with itunes, then it wants to delete the iphone, but last then my stars lost.

Thee are two ways that I know of.
- Restore the new iPod from the backup of the old one. See:
iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
- How to transfer game saves between iOS devices, without iTunes, and without jailbreaking | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog
App data is not included with the apps in your iTunes library. Thus, just syncing the apps from your iTunes library will not get the app data like saved games.

Filter Import by Number of Rating Stars and other such

My work flow is to look at the card with Nikon ViewNX2, and assign rating stars to the keepers, then import the keepers
into Lightroom. I can't see the stars in the import dialog, though I can see them once I do the import. LR clearly
understands the rating stars because it can import them. I'd like to be able to see the rating stars in the import dialog and
filter on them at import time. I suspect that there are others out there that would like to filter on color labels and the flags.
Why not use Lightroom for the review? I sometimes don't have the Lightroom computer with me, or any computer at all.
Nikon ViewNX2 is free, and I can install it on whatever computer is handy. It's also fast, and understands dual monitors.
Simliar logic applies to BreezeBrowser and even the free Microsoft software.

Website hit count and rating stars

Please assist I have 3 questions:
1. How to add the hit count on a website so that I can able to see how many people visited my site.
2. How to add the rating stars for music/video so that people can able to rate/vote for the best song/video of the month.
Thank you for your help.

I'm in complete agreement with JoeyD. Hit counters add nothing special to a typical site. Since they don't tell you where your hits are coming from or whether or not these are unique hits, I see no point in them.
@ Shocker. Your argument doesn't hold water. A regular web site is NOT the same as a web forum or blog where user participation is part of the whole experience. It's like comparing oranges to ducks - totally different.
If you look closely at Adobe's main web site or any other commercial site like Apple or Dell you're not likely to see hit counters on them. Why? Because they're irrelevant. The only people who care about site traffic are site owners and developers.
