Volume issue with certain songs

Certain songs will not play as loudly as they do in iTunes on my Mini, I tried turning on and off the sound check option but this actually has no effect on these songs at all. The songs were all extracted from alternative sources (DVDs, Quicktime movies) As I said they play fine in iTunes, but seem really soft on the Mini, especially with background noise.

You could try one of the 3rd party programs that work more effectively at leveling out the song volume (at least in my opinion).
For Macs there is iVolume.
The full version isn't free, but it has a trial version that allows you to use the program with just a few songs at a time so you could try it and see if it has any effect.

  • Volume issues with GE60 Apache Pro-003

    I recently picked up the new GE60 Apache Pro notebook, and I've been running it for about a week now. I should of course mention that I also did a clean windows install after adding an SSD to the system (and now can't figure out how to add back that cool MSI panel that was there when I first got the system).
    Anyway, I've noticed that there seems to be volume issues with the system no matter WHAT kind of settings I tweak, or drivers I try to use. With all sliders up at maximum, the volume levels still never seem to surpass around 50% (from observing the volume gauges in the Windows Volume mixer panel). My previous notebook's speakers put out significantly higher volume, and was also able to put out far more power to my headphones (Audio Technica ATH-M50).
    Any possible ideas for the cause and solution to this problem? Thanks in advance, and let me know if there is anything else I need to mention.

    What are you using to gauge the '50%'? MP3's? Windows sounds? or what?
    Pretty much everything. Music, games, online videos... According to the volume mixer, the audio levels never seem to pass 50%. The grey bar bounces to the peak, but the green bar never seems to pass the 50% level. It's as if there's some sort of limiter in place I'm not aware of. And since I reformatted the notebook as soon as I got it, I was never able to see if the volume control worked correctly before the reformat.

  • Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

    Is anyone having volume issues with the new Iphone 4S?

    Yes, the volume on my iPhone 4s will max out without me touching any button or setting.  When opening mail, for instance, the ringer icon will appear and the volume level goes to max volume - and I'm not touching the volume buttons.  It seems to happen randomly, at least I can't identify a pattern, but thankfully it doesn't happen all the time, but at least once a day.  
    Anyone else seen this?

  • Genius no longer able to function with certain songs

    A couple of months ago I noticed that Genius was no longer able to work with certain songs that it had previously generated playlists for.
    If this were for little known artists then I could understand, but it is unable to generate playlists for ACDC - Highway to ****, and other 'big' artists.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Delete background Apps from memory and then Reset.
    To Delete background Apps, double click Home button, in the bar at bottom, hold down on an App Icon until the minus sign appears, tap all the minus signs, until all background Apps are cleared from memory. Then Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart itself, ignor the 'slide to power off' let the iPhone restart itself. Usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.

  • Zen - AAC: Playback issue with long songs (± 15 min.)

    Hi,
    I made some tests with AAC Itunes plus files, and I've experiencing playback issue with long songs (when it's about 5 minutes or longer, like the second movement of Beethoven's third).
    During?playback, there is random artifacts added, never at the same place.
    I cleaned up my Zen 6 Gb and even formated it, and the problem still occurs. The latest firmware is installed.
    Is this issue has already been reported?
    Thanks.

    The Zen does in fact support AAC playback, but it's tricky--I've been dealing with this issue for a while, and I think it's finally solved. First of all, when you say "skipping," do you mean that the track skips ahead further into the same track, or does it skip to the next song with an error message like "There was an error with the audio file"? My problem was with the latter. There are a few possible solutions:
    . Delete the erroneous track from your Zen, then re-transfer; in my experience, this corrects the problem, although sometimes it takes a couple of tries.
    2. Make sure your AAC file is in iTunes Plus format (you can choose it in the ripping options in iTunes).
    3. If you haven't already done so, upgrade to Windows 7. This means upgrading to WMP2, which recognizes AAC files and can transfer them to your Zen. It also means you can download a version of Creative Centrale (from the Creative Support site) specifically for the Zen, which replaces the Zen Media Explorer and Creative Mediasource, and which seems to handle AAC transfers much better (so far, I haven't noticed any of the playback errors, but you never know!). By the way, WMP2 and Creative Centrale will also transfer album art easily to the Zen.
    Hope this is helpful.

  • Issues with importing song data and artworks

    Hi all,
    I am having annoying problems with importing songs to iTunes. I recently reinstalled my OS (Windows 7) and iTunes. Now, that I want to import all the songs, I'm facing some difficulties:
    1. iTunes just won't import song data for some albums, although they are clearly included in the song. Windows Media Player has no problems with them, it is just iTunes. Funny thing, so far it only happens to songs previously encoded by iTunes...
    2. A very general problem: iTunes doesn't import artworks properly, coming with the files. Even if it is music that was previously imported by iTunes. I can see the artwork in the Windows Explorer and in the Windows Media Player... but not in iTunes. But then again, sometimes, it works automatically... maybe 1 out of 6 albums...
    Any ideas? maybe it's the ID3 tag version, script issues (UTF, vs. ASCII,...)
    Cheers. Alex.

    Update: I had a couple of more such issues, where the album and/or the artist were imported as "unknown". When I went into the ID3 tags, I saw, that ALL OF THEM had a "0" written into their comments. And ALL OF THOSE albums were either imported through through, or bought from iTunes. Apple Hurray. :-/

  • Left shift issue with certain keys.

    Hello,
    From today, I have noticed an issue when using the right shift button, 
    It seems to only work with certain keys, the ones I have noticed do not work are ?  and :
    these works ok when using Left Shift
    Right shift works ok for other keys.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply, I dont have one with me at present,
    I find it strange, as I would normally agree with you but...
    The shift key works ok when used with other buttons indicating the shift key is ok.
    the ? and the : button work ok when no shift modifyer is present or when the shift key on the left hand side is used.
    proving both bottons work just not when used together

  • Issue with adding songs to library.

    Hey, I am having problems putting songs into my library. I've tried Adding the files and folders seperatly, but nothing shows up in the library. All of the songs are MP3's and seem to play fine in WMP...Anyone else have this problem?

    i also have the same problem.
    basically, what i did, is i went to Add folder to library, and chose My Music. So it loaded all the songs, and shows in the bottom that i have 4780 songs. But when i do the same in Winamp, it shows 6806 songs. So i checked the Library in iTunes and saw that some songs were missing, in what seems like a random manner. For example, i have the album "The Art of Drowning" from AFI, but only 2 songs from them are showing in the iTunes library, yet i have no problem playing them in Winamp, or even Windows Media Player. I tried adding a couple files manually, but it still doesn't work.
    (those are songs from CD's i own personnally)
    Please help,
    Thanks.
    edit: i found something out in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2260889&#2260889
    i tried removing both ID tags from a certain song and then iTunes accepted it. There is no way i can do this manually on the ~2500 songs that iTunes is not playing. I will try the program mentionned (TidyMP3) and come back with results.

  • Ipod freezes with certain songs

    I don't know what in the world is going on with my ipod but right now it's freezing up when I want it to play certain songs no matter what I do. It functions well otherwise except for this small dilemma. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this?

    Possibly this?

  • Problem with certain songs and ipod corrupting itself

    my 4g ipod has some serious problems with some songs, almost exclusively by bands with "S" names (something corporate, saves the day, and snow patrol off the top of my head - and I doubt it matters anyways). It will either play the first few seconds of the song or won't play it at all before it skips to the next track. I've tried converting the offending tracks/cd's to AAC with little success. While the song is trying to play the hard drive is clicking/vibrating/working at a rapid pace. I know this isn't a good thing at all, and there probably isn't a way to fix it, but if someone can fill me in with any info, it would be appreciated, as it's starting to happen to more and more songs.
    Also, it corrupts itself about once a week and I have to restore and reload all my songs. This isn't a huge issue because I don't keep anything exclusively on the ipod but it is annoying.
    Any advice, insight, or pity is appreciated.

    it's now corrupting itself every time I plug it into my computer. I fear it may be a goner. Lasted a little less than 18 months.
