Trouble with storing songs

I recently bought a 2GB ipod nano, and was told it stores 500 songs. But when I update it, it only stores 433. Why??!!

Because "500" can only be an estimate. Several things affect an iPod's capacity -- song lengths and the bitrate of songs are the primary variables that determine how large your library is. To a much lesser extent, artwork that you've added to songs, and other things like Notes and Calender entries also consume space.

  • Trouble with managing songs manually on 2 computers

    I usually manually manage my songs on my iTouch so that i can add songs from different computers and i won't only have songs synced from one computer.
    However after buying iPhone4, I've been having trouble with doing the same.
    Even when i have already ticked the "manually manage music and videos" box on my computer, the box will be unticked when i plug it into another computer. And when i tick the box it says that i have already synced to one iTunes library and i need to erase and sync it to that computer.
    So what is the point of MANUALLY managing my music and videos when i can't do so without erasing everything? I don't usually have problems with this on my iTouch.

    Incorrect. Up until extremely recently, you'd do all your Syncing on one Mac, but could still plug your iPhone into another Mac to manually drop music/videos onto it (as long as the Manually Manage option was checked while on your main Mac.)
    I'm not sure if it was an iTunes update or an iOS update that killed this fantastic feature, but something sure did. Now if I have some tunes on my home (secondary) Mac that I want to toss onto my iPhone before leaving for work in the morning, I can't! Argh!
    Huge killer.

  • Encoding Trouble with Long Songs

    Hello everybody! I listen to a lot of groups with exceptionally long songs and i've found that iTunes does a pretty bad job of importing the songs without any types of skipping or distortion. I've tried every format, including AIFF, Lossless, MP3 at 320 kbps, etc. and none does the job within iTunes. Can somebody recommend me a technique to use within iTunes that will eliminate these errors or another program that will do a good job of importing my CDs? Problems are apparent on tracks greater than 10 minutes in length. Thank you!

    Have you tried this classic advice from iTunes Help: *Choose Edit > Preferences and click Import Settings. If the “Use error correction when reading Audio CDs” checkbox is not selected, select it. If it's already selected, deselect it.*

  • Is anyone else experiencing trouble with removing songs off your iPhone via iTunes?

    iTunes 11 is so difficult to work! I can't even access the option to remove songs off my iPhone whilst it's connected to iTunes. Not sure if there's a super complicated way to do it but it's so unconvenient which I really hate. Any solutions? Seeing as I can't contact Apple through email I'm asking the community as they seem to know more about iTunes than the actual company does.
    Thanks in advance, guys..

    Hello Kizzrawr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to the Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues syncing your iPhone 5 with iTunes 11, specifically trying to remove songs. I can definitely help, however the answer is going to be based on how you have configured you iPhone to sync.
    First, you may want to enable the sidebar to bring back the familiarity of past iTunes versions:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Afterwards, your device should be displayed if connected:
    We'll want to click on it, and choose the Music tab at the top. If sync music is checked, which option do we have selected? "Entire Library" or "Selected playlists, artists…" - the latter of which may be best for your needs.
    Otherwise, you can always manually manage the music on your iPhone. The following resource may provide more information on how to do so:
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod

  • Trouble with loading songs onto ipod

    I was trying to load some of my existing cd's onto my ipod and after a while it wouldnt load anymore songs on. And after several times of trying to get a cd onto my ipod, it deleted all the songs I had already in it off my ipod. So I had to go back and load all the previously existing songs back onto my ipod.
    I dont know why it isnt letting me load some of my cd's on. One cd it only loaded 1 song from the 12 that were on the cd.
    I dont want to risk trying to load another cd on if its going to erase everything again.
    Anyone know whats going on?

    I'm not sure about the whole problem, but for the CD problem, single click to hightlight the first song on the list that comes up when you use the CD. Then,while holding shift, click the last song on the list. If you'be done this correctly, you should see all the songs between the top and bottom hightlighted. Then, click and drag the songs into the library and they should all download. The first will download, then the next when that finishes, and you get the idea, P.S. you do not need to use shift when you drag the songs to the library.
    It's happened to me sometimes, too.

  • Trouble with playing songs

    I downloaded my library, songs, podcasts, videos etc... but when I hit the "Ipod" button it goes directly to the music library. The screen changes from vertical to horizontal and all I can do is play songs. I cannot get back to the main Ipod screen. Any help???

  • Trouble with Long Song in Logic

    Has anybody ever run into this:
    I have to record a real estate book on tape type deal, total of 2-3 hours, each song is set to tempo of 60 so I get more time. There are a total of about 200 takes, 2 tracks.
    Here's the problem: when I close out the song and then load it back in, logic tells me that 37 files aren't referenced and when looking at the files they are blank!
    After about a week of loading that same song up, the number of ref'd files goes down and then all of the files load up properly. ?????????
    I am recording to a SATA drive on the G5 and I tried correcting permissions and even loading the project manager to see if that helps. It only happens when I'm doing a particularly long song file.
    Any thoughts?
    G5 1.6   Mac OS X (10.4.7)

  • Trouble with downloading songs from itunes to iphone

    I have purchased around 600 songs over the years many of them i had on an older ipod.  I recently tried to download all songs to my iphone half of the songs downloaded to a playlist and most say "download error tap to retry,  after several retry attempts it wont download. I have even opened my phone up to our home's wi fi....please help

    hi jason,
    imho, the lack of manual music and video management
    is a mistake. i've had 4 ipods over the years and have always used
    manual mode. the playlist hack works okay
    and is only mildly cumbersome.
    however i tend to buy music from itunes both on my
    imac at home and my pc at work. i've always simply
    been to plug in my ipod to either computer and grab my
    purchases, in either location. now, my iphone is "locked"
    to my imac. i'm sure apple had a good reason to leave out
    manual management, but i would suggest revisiting this
    asap.

  • Trouble with prewiew songs

    When I try to preview a song, after 6-10 seconds, it stops the prewiew of the song. Is there some way to fix this. I just downloaded the newest version of Itunes today.

    Because "500" can only be an estimate. Several things affect an iPod's capacity -- song lengths and the bitrate of songs are the primary variables that determine how large your library is. To a much lesser extent, artwork that you've added to songs, and other things like Notes and Calender entries also consume space.

  • Trouble with stored procedure date parameters in 10.2.0.2

    Hello,
    i have I couple of procedures which were running perfectly on 10.2.0.1.
    After the upgrade to 10.2.0.2 i get the error: ORA-01843: not a valid month ORA-06512: at "MASTERDBI.CREATE_OR_UPDATE_VER_INFO", line 65 ORA-06512: at line 1
    This error is fired up, on an simple insert-stmt within the procedure. That means, that the date-parameter itself ist ok.
    If I set the nls_date_format w/ "alter session...", then the procedure is running like before and everthing is fine. But this causes a big change on other programs. So I tried to set the nls_date_format w/in an schema.logon-trigger. But w/out success. The only solution is to set the nls_date_format explicit like in this example:
    begin
    execute immediate 'alter session set nls_date_format = "dd.mm.yyyy"';
    create_or_update_ver_info(
    10552,
    'VC BK Zuordnung',
    'TEST',
    sysdate,
    1);
    end;
    It seems, that oracle converts the date-param into a string a back again into a date. But, the date format expected is the american date format. The date format delivered is the german format. And this causes the fault.
    Any comments...
    Kind regards

  • Trouble with storing values in 2-d array.

    Hi, I am a Java newbie and would appreciate any help. I am writing a program to read in bandwidth traffic data from a text file and process it to make a graphical representation to analyze the data better. Anyways I haven't gotten very far yet. I am reading the text in from file a line at a time and splitting each line up into fields. I am trying to store each set of fields ( line of text) into a separate array so that I can manipulate the data better...when I get to that. Anyways, when I run the program it will output the first 3 fields of data and then give me the error 'Usage: java ReadFile filename' If I take out the code that stores my data in the array and just test it by outputting it to the screen it works fine. Reads in the file and prints out the entire file like I want it.
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the help guys. I didn't set my array to
    the right size. Also sorry about the formatting. I
    will do better next time.A list would have made that more flexible:
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/collections/index.html
    Also, it may make sense to define a class to represent one row of data, rather than just using an array for that, too.

  • I am finding FCPX has trouble with mixed audio sample rates

    I am just putting this thread out there to ask if anyone has experienced issues with mixed sample rates in the timeline?  Specifically I have noticed that a timelilne with an audio rate of 48KHz with have troubles with a song at 44.1KHz - this is irrespective of what sort of video codec I am using. It happens to me a lot lot with stills actually.
    If I preconvert to 48KHz, I do not have the same issue. Just asking if this has been discussed or mentioned elsewhere so I can figure out if it is just me.
    Thanks

    You might want to duplicate the capture preset for DV/NTSC 48k and change the audio to 32k.
    Then try that.
    But I'd also change the JVC's audio settings to record in 48 while you're waiting. Should be able to do it... cheap or not.
