Upgraded iPod firmware -- songs always shuffle now
This is very odd. I've had my Nano since they first hit the Apple Store shelves and never had a problem until now. However, I updated the firmware just yesterday and now all of the songs in albums and playlists shuffle, even though shuffle is turned off. This is driving me nuts -- has anyone else had this happen?
Does anyone know of a way to turn this off?

just doublechecking. is that the shuffle setting in your settings menu that is set to off?
if so, does toggling back and forth through songs, albums, and off a few times (ending with off) help with the unwanted shuffling?

Upgraded iPod touch to 6.01 now music says "no content" on screen. Sync takes forever but won't work
Just upgraded to 6.01. Tried to sync music and it took forever and didn't reflect the changes made in my folders, it also included lots of tracks that were blank. SO I tried syncing again, it took forever and then the iPod said "no content" when I clicked the music. Syncing takes forever (step 4 of 4) and does nothing now.
Restarted, relaunched and tried syncing many times. Not working.- Maybe

IPod random songs using shuffle?
I have a 4GB iPod nano. I am wondering when you listen to songs using random "shuffle" does the iPod randomly search through all the songs each time it selects or does it first eliminate the songs already played? Thanks.
The shuffle setting does not skip the songs already play. So, you could get the same song twice in a row.

I upgraded to 4.3.3 and now my iPod touch music won't shuffle. When I press shuffle it keeps replaying the same song over and over.
There are two arrows below the time a song is plays. One is circular (repeat) and the other has two arrows crossing each other (?). The one going circular needs to be pressed to turned it off.

After 4.3.3 upgrade ipod does not shuffle songs
After 4.3.3 upgrade ipod does not shuffle songs. The stop shuffling after any interruption occurs. So If play in the card, get a call, answer it then go back to the music, I have to manually select shuffle. This did not occur prior to the IOS update.
WEP and Apple products are only somewhat compatible - as you are finding out. If you create your own passwords, then you have to follow specific rules - 48 bit, 5 characters, 128 bit, 14 characters. Shorter or longer, the password won't work.
If you are stuck with WEP (I'd update the laptops with a USB wireless stick before I used WEP, but that's your decision) try the following:
1. Use the 128 bit setting
2. Either create a 14 character password or use WEP key 1 (that's the hex key) in place of your password on the touch.
You could set up a second wireless access point and, as long as it used a different SSID, setup to run WPA2-AES encryption. That would take care of your modern devices. -
Hi there my ipod repeats songs it wont shuffle please help from ankav
hi there my ipod repeats songs and will not shuffle please help?from ankav
Check to make sure the repeat setting has not been enabled. To do this, tap the artwork one time from the Now Playing screen to bring up additional controls. You will see an icon with two arrows going in a circle. Tap this icon until it turns white, mean it is Off.

Is it safe to upgrade firmware to 1.2 now?
i dont see as many posts about the problem anymore, and some people have claimed that they have no problems with the upgrade. and to these people: was there any special way you upgraded? (i.e. restored iPod to factory settings before upgrading, etc..)
thanks in advance!Do NOT upgrade to Firmware 1.2 IF 1)You have an older Video iPod and 2) you want to be able to view videos you downloaded from iTunes via an iTunes 6.x version. It will cause your Video iPod to lock up after just a few seconds.
IF however, you only plan on watching videos you download off of iTunes 7.x then you will be fine.
As of now, Firmware 1.2 is STILL not backwards comparable with your downloaded videos fro iTunes 6.x and it is really frustrating.
To be able to watch those videos you have to remain in the Firmware 1.1x mode.
I keep waiting for an update to Firmware 1.2 but it hasn't come yet even though it's been over a few weeks now with thse problems. -
Have a Macbook Pro and a 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded and install iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says --The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes--. I am running iTunes 10.1. I searched for Updates to my MacBook Pro (running 10.6.7), but comes back saying no updates available. WHAT IS GOING ON??
Is your computer still authorized in the Store menu in iTunes?
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
When I changed to my new MacBookPro I had to authorize it although I used TimeMachine to transfer my settings and data.
Did you try to deselect Wi-Fi syncing and enable it again after that?
iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi syncing
Did you already transfer your purchases and manually started a backup? -
I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer, although they are in the iTunes library on the computer and will play. It's these songs that won't transfer to the iPod. I have deauthorized and re-authorized the computer but no joy. Any ideas?
Hello there DesertRat71,
I was thinking that some of the songs in your library may have been purchased under a different apple id. You have already done the first thing I would have done by de authorizing and re authorizing. To verify this, highlight one of the songs that will not sync over and use File>Get Info. Here is the help menu link for it if you need it help://bookmark='https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/11.0/help/index.html?localePa th=English.lproj#itns2937'
In the Summary section there will be an Apple ID entry. If it shows something different than what you are currently using then I recommend signing into the Apple ID it shows and authorizing the computer for that one as well.
All the best,

Upgraded to firmware 2.0+ from 1.1.5 and now my 32Gb touch won't reboot
I tried to upgrade to firmware 2.0+. Everything looks ok while installing the firmware. The process goes smoothly. My problem shows up when the firmware is finished installing and my iPod has to do a final reboot. The screen just goes dark and doesn't come back. I've tried the process a bunch of times and it's the same result. The only way to get it back is to return to firmware 1.1.4/1.1.5. I've seen other people have the same problems. Does anybody have any similar experiences and possible fixes? Thanks.
P.S. I don't get any weird error messages. The process goes smoothly except the iPod never reboots.ive heard of updating urfirmware but i dont know where to do it from... i have 2wire

Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra 30GB- tried to upgrade firmware. Process hung, now nothing wo
This is really frustrating. I know my MP3 player is old, but it was working. Trying to find all the information I needed to have to upgrade this player so that it would work with Windows Vista was difficult. It wasn't all in the same place. I just kept searching and finally found what I thought was everything I needed. I tried to upgrade the firmware to Version 2.0.03 so I could use it with a Windows Vista computer. The process "hung" and now nothing works. I've tried to reinstall the .20.08 firmware, but the computer won't recognize that the player is connected. How can I get any firmware reloaded so I can try to upgrade again or at least still use the player on a Windows XP machine Thanks,
The same exact thing happened to me yesterday with my Zen Touch 40 GB player. It was working fine, now after my firmware upgrade attempt it's unrecognized by the PC and has no firmware installed but appears to be stuck in "Recovery Mode". There is obviously something wrong with the Creative Firmware update - this should be a very straightforward process, but instead it seems to be wrecking mp3 players. I contacted customer support and they offered to sell me assistance since my player is ancient (2 years old).

Itunes won't detect ipod touch after upgrade to firmware 1.1.4
I am in desperate need of help. My 16GB Ipod is no longer being detected by iTunes.
I decided to upgrade the firmware to 1.1.4. through iTunes. The update wasn't interrupted and i can see no issues during the procedure. when the update was completed, my iPod had no content in it and it wasn't showing up in iTunes.
Here's what i've tried so far to correct this:
- Uninstalled iTunes and all other apple related software and then re-installed
- tried different USB ports on my laptop
- Reset all setting within the ipod
- Run the iTunes diagnostic. It error's out during the sync test.
I've tried to find any other similar example on other sites but haven't been successful.
Please help.These are other hints http://www.copytrans.net/helpcopytrans.php#22

I've had my iPod classic for some time now, and up to now have been connecting it to my laptop to sync any downloaded tunes from iTunes. Unfortunately, the laptop has died and I'm thinking of buying a iPad.....but how do I now get any songs downloaded from iTunes to my iPod?
If an iPod is set to update automatically it will be associated with a particular library. If you connect that iPod to a different computer or a different library on the same computer you get the the message you are referring to. "The iPod "iPod Name"is linked to another another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to this iTunes music library and replace all existing songs and playlists on this iPod with those from this library". To use an iPod on multiple computers you change the update method to "manually manage songs and playlists". You can also use multiple iPods on a single computer so you will be able to connect both of your iPods to your existing iTunes. Connect the new iPod and follow the on screen instructions, iTunes will open and update your iPod.
For info:
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod. -
