Tracks ripped in iTunes with default settings cut short on iPods

I have a WIndows PC running XP (which I keep up to date).
I rip CDs I have bought using iTunes with default settings (so creating AAC files). My iPod library is held on a networked storage device.
All tracks play fine in iTunes.
Quite frequently, when I sync the ripped CD to an iPod, one or more tracks will cut short when played on the iPod, usually near the beginning (they generally play for less than 30 seconds).
The tracks always cut off at the same point.
The problem occurs consistently across 3 separate iPods (i.s. same tracks, same point).
I have tried resetting iPods, removing artwork as suggested by some threads etc.
The only way I have found to resolve the problem is to re-rip the CD (or at least the faulty tracks). Usually this fixes it, although sometimes I have had to re-rip more than once.
I have not found similar problem reports (those I have found tend to be people ripping to MP3 format), which seems strange if this is an iTunes bug.
It has occurred to me this might be an issue with the data being written to the storage device which is connected via ether to router.
Any thoughts?

You're welcome. Glad it worked out.
Amazing day yesterday. The Earth shake was very powerful, lasting for over a minute. Fortunately and amazingly, we had very minor damage.
Please mark this post "solved". Helpful for others looking for a solved solution to a similar question, also helpful for me. Aloha from Big Island.

Tracking number field in the Default settings for items section

I need to add the tracking number field in the Default settings for items section in the shopping cart creation transaction.
Could you please tell me inw hich structure should I add the custom field ?
thanks,
Rita.

Hi Atul,
I added the code of tracking number in in the html template saplbbp_mon_sc 1200 with reference to the code of purchase org field.
This added a field in the shopping cart report selection screen but without any description.
I will further learn html code and try to bring in the description and then try to handle this field in the badi bbp_mon_sc after_selection_screen and after_selection method.
Is this approach ok?

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized. Help!

I have purchased a new computer and authorized my iTunes with my Apple ID; however, my iPod Classic, which I have had for many years, will not sync hundreds of songs that I have purchased and says the device needs to be authorized.
I have searched high and low and there does not seem to be a way to authorize the iPod Classic. What can I do to sync my purchases to my iPod? I have tried reformatting/restoring it as suggested. It continues to only allow me to sync non-icloud/itunes content.
Help!

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Tracks cutting short on iPod after replacing with higher quality files?

I've been replacing old mp3 by deleting them from the hd then "re-finding" the newer higher quality versions in iTunes.
Problem is all these new files always cut short in my iPod, it's been driving me mad, I thought the solution would be to erase the pod completely then replace all the files, I did this (twice) and it still happens, I even filled my pod with completely different mp3s just so I knew the files were definitely getting wiped but still the tracks I replaced cut short when I put them back on the pod.
I really hope the only solution isn't to delete the files from iTunes then re-import them, I've been trying to avoid this as my library is a few years old now with a bunch of meta-data (play counts, ratings etc) that will be lost if I do this, there must be some other way, seems a bit silly, I'd really like to know why it's happening.
This only happens on my vid pod not my shuffle btw.
any suggestions?

Ok thanks, I downloaded vbrfix but I'm not quite sure how it works (though I replaced the line of code for Mac as outlined) is there something I have to do to get it operational?
It looks like it's a problem with the iTunes metadata fooling the iPod into thinking the vbr file should end earlier then it does, maybe because cbr data was there originally and hasn't been replaced with vbr data, though it's strange this only manifests itself on the vid pod.
Would I really need to re-rip my cds? problem is I wanted to use the LAME encoder which can't be done very satisfactorily from with iTunes, it looks like maybe this vbrfix could just alter the metadata in the files themselves to make them more iPod friendly?

I have 2 PC´s and both have iTunes with diffrents Songs, but only 1 iPod

Hello ..
My English is not so good,i learn it in school, but i hope you understand me and i get some help from you.. plZ
MY Problem :
I have 2 PC´s( My PC and the PC of my mom ) and every PC have iTunes with diffrents songs, because my mom dosen´t like my music =D and i don´t like her Music...
But we only got one iPod Video....
Now my Question :
How to get all the Music form both iTunes on the iPod ?
I hope you can help me and please don´t write to difficult englisch xD
LiKE you all

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Syncing Music to iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

Why does itunes override default settings for windows 7?

something is seriously wrong with my windows 7 / itunes interface.
when i click 'listen live' on kpfa (the ONLY station on which this happens), instead of going to my default setting for winamp, itunes jumps in and starts itself.
THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT! i have tried everything possible to make sure the defaults are correct, even going so far as to uninstall/re-install itunes to no avail. *** is itunes up to? when i want to use it, i will start it myself...and when and why did this change happen? this computer belongs to ME, not apple, not itunes. making changes to my computer without permission is ********. why can't i fix this?
angry in anchorage

i already did that at the direction of:

nothing works. i am righteously ****** off about this. when and how did this change occur? i have never had this problem before.

Support configuring PlayBook on a Microsoft VPN with default settings

We have a Microsoft VPN running at work. I can connect to it from any Windows 7 PC with the default VPN settings. How can I configure the PlayBook to connect to the VPN. I have had no success after trying various settings.

Can anyone shed some insight into the correct settings - I too am attempting to get a VPN operational against a standard Microsoft Server VPN.
Is there something that I need to be able to ask IT ? where should I look ?
When I configure a new win 7 laptop all I need is the URL of the VPN server...

Connection to JetDirect Box x500 with default settings failed

Hello everybody,
got a big problem withJetDirect x500 boxes in my company.
After a blackout at my company, many JetDirect boxes lose their configuration and reset themselves to the default configurations.
We got the exact configuration of each box written down, so i want to set them up again with the correct settings.
But now i can´t connect to the boxes via HP JetAdmin. I try it with the mac adress and also with the default ip (192.0.0.192), but non of these works.
I also tried resetting the boxes and then try to connect, but the connection failed.
I also tried to connect the boxes locally via a network switch to my notebook and repeat to connect with the methods written above , but this is also not working.
There must be a way to configure these boxes locally so they can be set up in the network, but i can not find in in the manual.
Did someone got a solution for this and can help me out, please ???
greetings
pat

Like sasek, I'm using the RTL8187SE card and I can't use networkmanager because it just doesn't detect the networks. What I've seen in the log files is that wpa_supplicant is stuck in a loop. I used Fedora for a few days and it connects fine, using the gnome-shell applet, but Fedora is so damn slow on my laptop.
Right now I'm using wicd-curses. That's my solution for now.

Shopping cart Issue with ( "Default settings:   Set values" ) link

Hello SRM Gurus,
I have an issue in shopping cart process:
When creating a shopping cart, I am trying to change the u201CDelivery Address/Performanceu201D tab data through link u201CDefault settings:   Set valuesu201D, then add the items in to shopping cart and ordered. The change values are properly populating. For example (Street/house number) .
But when we re-creating the shopping cart, the changed values are not populating automatically (Itu2019s not updated in to master table I guess) and we need to open the link u201CDefault settings:   Set valuesu201D and change the values again.
So is this link (u201CDefault settings:   Set valuesu201D ) active only for that particular Shopping cart? Or is it missing to update the changed data in to master table?
Because business wants, when changes happen through (u201CDefault settings:   Set valuesu201D) link, It should be update in to users master and when open next time the changed value should be populated.
Is this standard behavior of shopping cart?
Kindly let me know your comments.
Thanks.
Regards,
Magesh.

Hi Anubhav
Thanks for the mail.
Actually my issue is that,
When creating new shopping cart, trying to change some values through "Default Settingsu201D will it be parentally stores the changed value into user master data? Or it is temporarily changes for that shopping cart alone?
Because business wanted when changing the values in "Default Settingsu201D the changed value should be appeared when creating shopping cart next time also..
So I want to know that , What is the standard behavior of u201Cdefault settingsu201D . Kindly let me know your experience.
Thanks.

Magesh Basavaraj.

Graduated Filter always comes up with default settings

... of exposure +2 and some other settings in LR2.1. Where can I change this default for the graduated Filter? Annoying: Not (only) the default setting, but the lack of a hard drive based help system or a decent manual for such a product. Getting help for basics takes MUCH too much time. The web is not everything.
thanks for a help comment.

990FX-GD80 and FX-8350 System not Stable with Default Settings - BSOD or Lockup

Bios = 11.13
Ram = Viper 3 Series, DDR3 32GB (4 x 8GB) 2133MHz Quad Kit 1.5v
Video = Geforce GTX460
Power Supply = Corsair TX850M
OS = Windows 7 x64
I had some issues setting up the OS initially and because the system drive was Raid 1, I needed to create a boot-able USB key to do the install.
When I installed the OS, I had an AMD Phenom II 1090 installed and bios version was 11.12.
I had a few BSODs during setup and after wards, but not too frequent. I can't recall if I made many changes the bios at this time (possibly disabled C6 state and CoolnQuite).
When I had purchase the FX8350, the bios was upgraded prior to install the CPU being installed.
When the system booted, it failed during the windows experience index test. Some times the test would crash at random points, or the system would freeze and even the
occasionally BSOD when the test made it to the CPU performance index.
I had tried the OC Gennie in the beginning too, but it did not work out. The system would lockup while loading windows.
Too bad.
I decided to shut off all power saving features in the bios and after that I still had some issues with the the Windows Experience Index test.
The system was much more stable when Turbo boost was disabled, but I still had the occasional lockup and BSOD under load (Fallout Vegas or Handbrake encoding media).
With the CPU Core voltage set to auto, and power saving disabled, the core voltage would read 1.288v under no load
and drop below 1.25 during the Windows Experience Index.
I have manually set the CPU voltage in bios. Currently it is at 1.328 and measures 1.304 when the system is not loaded.
DDR3 Ram voltage is set to 1.58v and measures at 1.552.
I am using Open Hardware Monitor to get this info. You need to enable hidden voltages to view the DDR3 voltage which is labeled Voltage #3.
Under load the CPU voltage drops to 1.288 and lower.
When I have been running Windows Experience Index, the CPU only seems to hit 75% maximum usage
during the CPU test while the CPU core voltage drops to 1.264.
I would like to over clock the system but I am concerned now. The mother board is rated at 140w for the CPU and the CPU is
rated at 125W, and from what I have read, overclocking with this CPU would exceed the boards 140w rating.
Because of the fluctuating CPU Core voltages (with power saving features disabled) , I thought that the motherboard may have a fault
so sent it back to the vendor for replacement. I now have a second board and it is performing the same as the first.
Older systems I have owned usually just worked, an so I am wondering what others are experiencing with this combination of
CPU and motherboard. I am considering sending both CPU and motherboard back to vendor and switching to an Intel CPU.

Improvement of what?
If you want to know the voltages for sure, then take a volt-meter and measure them.
The readings you see in software and BIOS are not much more then an indication at best.
It's not an checked and verified precision reading.
And yes, voltages fluctuate, if they don't your board is dead
Anybody with electronic skills will tell you this.
As for memory, you may want to read this: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/amd_fx_8350_processor_review,3.html
The CPU supports 1866 DDR3, but what they never tell is that this is with 2 ranks per channel, ergo 1 double sided stick of 2 single sided sticks.
Have you tried running with 1333 or 1600? Because you have 4 large sticks it for sure can't do 2133 and I doubt it can sustain 1866.
This is not a board problem but CPU limitation.

Does a Time Machine back up iPhoto with default settings? Because my (TM) did not back up iPhoto? I was shocked to find this out after my iMac crash!

This is a known issue with Time Machine. I suggest backing up iPhoto Library separately and not rely on Time Machine to do so. In fact if it were up to me I would not let you use Time Machine. I would recommend using one of the following for your regular and scheduled backups:
Suggested Backup Software
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Imac has restarted with default settings?

i was downloading flash player update and did , then was asked to restart firefox which i did then the desktop lost all icons and screen looked like it did when i took it out of the box 2 years ago, all music is lost and recent photos in iphoto are gone. what happened

Which site did you use to download from? The official Adobe site?

HTML5 videos not rendered proper. Too light/pale. With default settings.

Title says it all. Is there a way to change anything codec, renderer or some preference?
I was told that firefox uses media foundation codecs are there any alternatives to microsoft's built in codec?
If I disable "media.windows-media-foundation.use-dxva" I get proper video, but of course CPU usage increases significantly which might cause troubles. Especially if I have other stuff running and/or I play high-res videos. Also the efficient HW acceleration of the GPU remains unused.

Please work through the video troubleshooting guide.

Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.
