What does synchronisation mean? What data is being synchronised?
On my 80GB IpoD classic I replace music several times. After successful transfer of imported CDs from the mediathek onto the Ipod I finally clean up the mediathek; that means:
Mediathek and IpoD can never be synchron because of a clompletely different contents. (I manually administer my IpoD)
Synchron to me means: 2 or more different parts do exactly the same thing.
my question:
What does synchronsation mean in this context? What info has to be synchronized between Ipod and mediathek?
Thanks for answering
You are correct that the common meaning of synchronise is to make two things the same. iTunes uses this term slightly loosely but if you set your device to sync with selections from your iTunes library, e.g, certain playlists, podcasts, TV shows etc. then changes in those part of your library can be automatically reflected on the device. For iTunes syncronisation is one way - from iTunes to the device - although it can also transfer purchased items from the device back to iTunes. When automatically syncing it can also update play counts & last played dates both from iTunes to the device and from the device to iTunes.
If you manually manage your iPod then it will still have data that needs to be copied to it or deleted at some point. Whenever data is being modified on the device it will display the "syncronising" screen.

What does it mean when data "no sim" on Ipad. I have a paid monthly data plan?
Top of I pad1 says "no sim" and can not get 3G service. I pay a monthly data plan. Whats wrong?
Assuming the SIM is ok often ejecting the SIM and pushing back in can fix this.
If you have a dry cloth give the metal contacts of the SIM a wipe.
If still nothing confirm that the SIM is still working by placing it into another device.
Recently I had a SIM die on me, it was 7 years old. -

Airplay speaker unavailable. The speaker "apple tv" is currently being used by someone else. What does this mean amd how do I fix the issue so I can play my video through apple tv?
The video orientation is included with the video's EXIF data and the same for photos. It is that state of the art OS your computer is running that doesn't recognize or completely ignores the EXIF orientation data.
This link applies to photos but whatever Windoze application you are using to view videos should provide the same or similar.

Hi Everyone!
I'm a bit new to the whole PDF thing and am thrilled to share that I finally figured out how to use this cool feature! Well sort of! I noticed that there is a large red button that says all files will be deleted on January 6th. What does that mean exactly? Will any files that we have stored here simply vanish? I have a PDF file that I published in my 'workspace' that's linked to my business website. Will the link to my PDF file just disappear on January 6th? Thanks for any insights that you can share!
Blessings,
