Update 1.2 and iTunes 7.0: Bliss

I just wanted to post this to point out that something for which we iPod users have all been waiting has finally come to pass:
GAPLESS PLAYBACK!
So, for all progressive rock fans out there (just me then), those who listen to live albums with audio between the tracks, and (an overwhelming majority of people who commented on gapless playback in these forums) fans of the album Dark Side of the Moon (who might, then, fall into the first category as well), this update is a godsend. Also, for those who wish to conserve battery life, there is now a brightness control in the Settings menu.
There is a catch. You will need to update to iTunes 7.0 in order to download this new firmware. The seperate firmware updater has been eliminated because iTunes 7.0 integrates this process, along with automatically checking for updates for both iTunes and the iPod firmware.
I just thought this might help those who are wondering what's new in the latest firmware update, and also for those who wonder whether or not they need to update to iTunes 7.0.
Toshiba Satellite Notebook, Intel Centrino Duo T2400 processor, 1.83 GHz (x2), 1024 DDR2 SDRAM   Windows XP   5G (Black) 60GB iPod video; (Black) 2GB iPod nano

When I updated to 1.1.2 my ipod software said it was up to date. I guess I did not see an option to update from ITunes 7.0., and no where on the apple site did i see a 1.2 version. (I guess thats what you meant when you say that they have done away with the ipod updater)
Does it make a difference that I update using a Windows computer using itunes 7.0 and then play my video on my mac. (I would guess that as long as the ipod software is 1.2 i'd be ok right?) This is where I am confused because right after updating to 1.1.2, i took my ipod and connected it to my mac and under ipod preferences, it did read 1.1.2
I am trying to avoid reformatting my ipod to mac since I have over 6,000 music tunes and videos which took me months to load.
thanks in advance for more help.

  • Updated to ios7 and iTunes 11.1, Music won't play or Error sign ! when clicked on

    After updating my ios and itunes my music on my ipod will not play and an error sign ! shows up to the left of every song when clicked to play. Also when i undock the ipod it would show that all my music is gone! But when i redock the ipod it shows that all the music is still there! This is really frustraing to me because i have spent countless hours organizing my playlist and it would take about the same amount of time to redo them. Please Help!

    having the same issue, everything i have tried doesn't seem to work. never had a problem until i installed 11.1
    all my albums are now in the itunes library but even that isn't making any diffrence, spent a good few hours yesterday reinstalling my music...just a waste of time, same thing happened. will keep you posted if i find any answers

  • My 6th generation nano isn't recognized by my computer. When I plug it in an error message pops up, which says "USB Device Not Recognized". Does anyone know how to start trouble shooting this. I updated both windows and iTunes.

  • Can you help me with problems from latest update of Safari and ITunes.  I can no longer delete cookies as I once did, because the security tab no longer displays the show cookies option. Can anyone please help?

    I can no longer show or delete cookies from my MacBook Pro, since installing the latest update of Safari and Itunes..  Previously, I went to the security tab and clicked on the show cookies option, then opted to delete..  That option has now diappeared and a completely different security tab appears.  The tab does not show a cookies option anywhere.
    Also, I can no longer see a list of my software applications without opening system profiler.
    Sure would appreciate your help.  Thanks.

    Safari's cookies is broken, either intentionally or it's a bug.
    You can search the forums for
    safari cookies lion
    and turn up plenty of threads.
    If you need control over your browser cookies and other aspects of your web browser, I suggest you install Firefox.

  • Address book groups not updated in iSync and iTunes-iPod-info sync

    Changes to address book groups are not reflected in iSync and iTunes. I.e. if I remove a group or add a group it is still the old list of groups that is listed in iSync and iTunes available for syncing with my phone or iPod. How do I get these list to be updated and reflect the present list in Address Book?

    The suggested resolution essentially said "delete the address book and start over."
    Ok, I can see how this will help but... a few questions:
    1. How to I re-load the address book with my 500+ contacts without loosing my groups and all the data? The suggestion in the other discussion doesn't give any guidance on this
    2. What caused the problem to begin with? In other words, how can I prevent it from happening again?
    I discovered the syncing problem about the time I did the following three things:
    1. Upgraded to 10.5.2
    2. Upgraded my iPhone (and iTunes) to 1.1.4
    3. Installed Bento (possibly a red herring) -- but it DOES connect to address book

  • Updated Iphone 4 and Itunes 11.. cannot update checked music and apps

    Computer uses Windows 7. 
    Iphone is a version 4 with IOS 6.0.1 loaded. 
    Itunes is the latest version of 11.
    I noticed my new Ipad mini has no issue with connecting to Itunes and it does read what apps I want removed and added.
    The Iphone 4 however is having issues.  I notice that Itunes locks up a lot which could possibly be an issue with the computer but unclear.
    I have certain songs checked..when going into the music section prior to connecting the phone.
    When the phone is connected I can see the settings for the phone and in the general part I have tried different configurations.. I tried sync checked audio and video only...I have redone it with checking manually control of music/video. 
    I noticed based on which of those two are checked it will either check or uncheck the actual sync box in the music tab for the phone.  If in the music tab of the phone that is checked....it gives me different things to click like "Band" or "Album" and still disregards any selection I make there and will not change the present music in the phone.
    My issue is overall it completely disregarding the audio selections and keeping whatever audio is on the phone where its at.  It will not add the new CDs I purchased to the phone even though they are checked in Itunes.  The apps are not updating either...In the phones app tab it says it will remove apps but does not and will not add other either.
    Version 10.7 seemed to be glitchy for me as well...it seemed I had to do 2 syncs to get it to accept my choices but would accept them.
    Am I missing a setting?

    After upgrading i06 on iphone 4 and Itunes 11 on pc
    Does anyone know how to solve why the apps sync starts installing apps on the IPhone, blue bar gets to mid point for each app (even 1 app) then hangs i.e. fully clears the blue bar as if it hasn't started. Occurs on cable connection and Wifi sync.
    This then stops you from installing any apps as the hung app shows installing but not doing anything.
    Installing new apps is fine however.
    cheers

  • Problem wiht 10.6.2 update, Dashboard, safari, and itunes dont work

    perhaps somebody could help me...
    I tried to install the snow leopard 10.6.2 update. it froze near the end. afterward, I restarted my computer only to find that itunes, safari and my dashboard, do not work. They each claim to "quit unexpectedly".
    Also my Software Update (in preferences), says my installed software include: Mac OS X update 10.6.1, Itunes 9.0.1, and THREE different Mac OS X Update 10.6.2 updates
    I am also In china until february and left my snow leopard disc in the States. I am not very tech savvy and if anybody could help me I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    Hi, I originally used the Software update. That is when I first encountered the errors. So I tried to install the combo updater thinking that would help. It did not. Now I cannot redownload any. they each get about 5 or 10 MB's into the download, when it says download is complete, and then something pops up and says it is not recognized by os x (probably because the download is incomplete...

    Hi paleitz, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
    The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
    Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
    If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
    If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.
    I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
    That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.
    If it appears to be time for An Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    Be sure to use Preserve Users & Settings.

  • Updated to ios7 and iTunes 11.1, Music won't play/phone won't sync

    I updated my iPhone 4s to ios7 today. I updated itunes to itunes 11.1 so I could sync it (on a toshibia pc running windows vista).
    Ever since the update, my Iphone won't play music that I haven't purchased off the itunes store, even though it does appear on my phone, and my itunes has been stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied" and won't finish the section of the sync.
    What should I do?

    having the same issue, everything i have tried doesn't seem to work. never had a problem until i installed 11.1
    all my albums are now in the itunes library but even that isn't making any diffrence, spent a good few hours yesterday reinstalling my music...just a waste of time, same thing happened. will keep you posted if i find any answers

  • HT201210 While trying to update my iphone and itunes, I have messag 1611 and my phone is frozen on a pic of a usb cord w/ an arrow to itunes..  I have removed firewalls and security programs as suggested..still not restored!!

    I was on the phone with an apple tech for two hours, we managed to update itune program on computer, but by that time the phone was dead and would not show up as a divice.  She told me to let the phone charge, then plug it in and it might recognise my phone, which it did.  I followed the directions and now my iphone is a nice paperweight.  She also told me she would email a case number and some articles which would guide me through the process if it did not work.  I did not receive them!!  My iphone cannot be restored (error 1611).  I have removed all security ware as it suggested.  I even took down the windows firewall... I have tried everything  (except of course I cannot try what they suggest I adjust on my phone because it is frozed FOREVER!!!  Please help me!!

    Put the device in DFU mode (Google it) and restore.
