When I try to play a song with the music app on my iPod Touch, some songs freeze at the beginning and my iPod touch becomes unresponsive to anything for up to twenty seconds. Help?
Hi all I'm new here.
My issue goes something like this. When I use the standard music app to play some of my music (MOST from Beatport) on about half of the songs, my iPod will freeze and become unresponsive for up to a half minute. After that, it normally brings me back to the playlist song selection that I was looking at previously. I have an iPod Touch 5th Generation that is running iOS 6.1.2. I have only three playlists, but all of the three have over 500+ unique songs on them. (I normally don't keep duplicates of songs on my iPod) I started to have this problem when I upated my old iPod Touch 4th Generation to iOS 6.0.0. Ever since I got that update, half of my songs have not and will not play.
I have tried numerous times to reset my iPod (4th and 5th) and I even re-installed everything without using a backup.
Any help as to what will fix my problem?
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

When I try to play a track that I have purchased, I get a mid screen comment, item no found, ? but they are all on my iPod which plays fine, even though I synchronize them together it makes no difference. I also get further mid screen comments when I start I tunes, drivers or similar missing relating to burning cd's I have deleted I tunes numerous times to try and recify this problem as suggested by the mid screen comments. again it makes no difference.

That exclamation point means the song files cannot be found, for some reason. They are no longer where iTunes expects to find them. They were either moved or deleted. Sometime, a data corruption issue on your hard drive can make files inaccessible. You may want to check that possibility, because other files may be affected.
Since you can still see the name, artist, and album of the missing songs in iTunes, you may want to try using Windows to do a general search of your hard drive volume, searching on the name of one of the songs (or artist or album name). If you are using the default settings for iTunes, iTunes uses the name of song, album, and artist to name the file and directory path of the song file's storage location. If they got moved for some reason, you may find the path to all of the missing songs by finding one song. You can then move them back to the location where iTunes expects to find them.
some are ones I have purchased thru the itunes store, and it is these I'm most annoyed about, as I paid to have them and now cannot play them.
Don't be mad about those songs... Any previous song purchase from the iTunes Store can be re-downloaded at any time at no cost. Go to the main iTunes Store screen. On the right side, find Purchased under QUICK LINKS. On the Purchased screen, click on Music and find those missing songs. There is a Not on This Computer filter there that would be useful in this case. Next to the song name, you should see a button with a cloud symbol. Click it to download that song. -
Why does the music app on my phone keep skipping songs?
My music app on my iPhone 4S keeps skipping songs. It will show the album
cover for a second then it will skip right to the next song and sometimes it will
skip multiple songs. For example, once it skipped over an entire playlist and
went to the screen at the end when it showed all of the songs in the playlist.
I have update 6.0.1 and I haven't used the music app since the last update.
Any help would be much appreciated.Mine is 18.2Mb it gets to about 37mb tops, Try logging out of the app, remove all apps that are running in the background then shut your phone down and restart, if that does not work hold the power and home button and do a hard reset. You shouldnt loose any data at all but make sure you back up anyway before hand, its just like a forced reboot of a computer really.

Music App on iPad Only Showing SOME Songs...
...yet ALL songs appear to be ON THE IPAD when viewed in iTunes on my MacBook with the iPad connected to my MacBook
So here's my issue and Googling for days has only produced a bunch of theories and random guesses at a solution but no real solution. Here we go: With my iPad 2 (ver. 5.1.1) connected to my MacBook, I drag a handful of MP3s (audiobook tracks) onto my iPad. Using iTunes on my MacBook, I create some Playlists on the iPAd for these new tracks.
Then, I press the Sync button in iTunes to ensure that what I have just done on the iPad in iTunes on my MacBook actually syncronizes with the iPad. Everything looks good. With the iPad still connected, in iTunes I can see the handful of new tracks I just dragged over onto the iPad and they actually appear in the correct Smart Playlist I made.
However...
When I disconnect the iPad from the MacBook, then open up the Music app on the iPad, I cannot see my new MP3 tracks anywhre on the iPad and the new Playlist is empty.
Now, keep in mind that SOME tracks transfer and are visible in Music. However, it is not 100% consistent and it fails more often than it is successful.
I have tried deleting the tracks and the Playlists from the iPad entirely then dragging them back onto the iPad (via iTunes) and while the tracks actually show that they are in fact on my iPad (via MacBook iTunes) while the iPad is connected to my MacBook, when I disconnect the iPad from MacBook/iTunes, I am unable to find the tracks on my iPad via the Music app. They don't show up in Music, Audiobooks. They don't even show up by author or genre. It's as if they aren't even on my iPad. Yet, when I reconnect the iPad back to the MacBook and view the contents via the iTunes on my MacBook, viola! There they are on my iPad.
I have successfully used this method to add MP3s to my iPad and occasionally, the tracks actually do show up in my Music app on the iPad. However, success is intermitent and uncertain...and rare.
I am NOT using iTunes Match so that option is turned OFF in my iPad Settings. I have tried turning it on to see if it would make a difference and I onl get a dialog box that tells me that I'm not subscribed to iTunes Match.
I have updated my iPad IOS to the latest. Have powered off completely then powered back on.
Still....nothing works.
Thanks so much for your input. I'm perplexed beyond belief by this random and frustrating issue.
C'mon gurus and expert users. What do you recommend?If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

The screen shots include the web address for both shots. One is for script error messages that keep interrupting EVERY game. Then after I stop the scrip, Adobe Flash crashes, and I have no control. I have to use the Windows Task Manager to gain access to my home page to get out.
This didn't happen until I updated the Firefox this last time. I've tried everything and nothing works to get rid of the problem.
I've been to your questions, etc and nothing I've found helps.
I use Windows XP

Error message when I try to publish aa application with BI Mobile App Designer
Hello,
We had last month a product demonstration of BI Mobile App Designer by Oracle's commercial.
Following this demonstration, I installed and deployed this module on one of our OBIEE server 11.1.7.141014
I thus tested the BI Mobile App Designer product by creating two smartphone applications that worked perfectly.
The problemis that since a few days, I can not access one of my applications from my smartphone.
From OBI, I then load my application and tried to publish it again, but I get the error message :
oracle.xdo.webservice.exception.OperationFailedException: PublicReportService::generateReportParametersDefinition
Failure: Due to oracle.xdo.servlet.data.DataException: oracle.xdo.XDOException:
oracle.xdo.das.DASException: BISvsException on getting a JBIPS member query data.
Then I tried to duplicate my "Mobile App" and rename it and when I tried to publish it I get the error :
French message :
La bibliothèque d'applications n'est pas configurée correctement.
Assurez-vous que le fichier de configuration est défini pour la bibliothèque d'applications.
English message :
The application library is not configured correctly.
Make sure that the configuration file is defined for the application library.
I don't understand what happens and I can't find any solution to this problem in Oracle knowledge base !...
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Thierry DemoyHi Thierry,
In relation to the second error, I have had this before and it related to be below so this may help: Check the following file:
<DOMAIN_HOME>/config/bipublisher/repository/Admin/Configuration/xmlp-server-config.xml
Check that the following line matches were you are trying to publish your apps on OBIEE. The default is normally "Apps Library" but you can name this folder anything you like.
Just change the below line and point to the folder. Restart the services BIMAD.
<property name="APPS_LIBRARY_FOLDER_LOCAL" value="/Apps Library"/>
Let us know if this helps?
Thanks

Please help
You may be getting that error message if the setting 'Copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library' is not turned on (in Preferences>Advanced>General).
To sort all your songs out in one batch, my suggestion would be to remove all your songs from your iTunes library and re-import them all. However, as someone who also has a 5,000-song collection, I wouldn't want any of your songs to be deleted, so either do a backup or write-protect your iTunes music folder. -
My purchased itunes videos no longer play on my Windows 7 computers. When I click on a movie, itunes shuts down with an error message. Movies played fine until now. Any ideas out there?

I put all the details in my question. On neither my desktop nor my laptop does a place pop up for my to enter the sync key that I have saved when I was trying to learn about Firefox and clicked on the sync. At the time I just thought it was for my cell phone which does not have access to the internet. Now that I have saved all my bookmarks from yahoo to Firefox on my laptop. I also want them on my desktop and did not want to go thru what I did on my laptop saving them one at a time. I had to do it this way because I could not get them to import or export or whatever. Besides the last time I checked yahoo had their bookmarks locked up because they are working on them. I could not add nor delete anything in yahoo bookmarks. They are in some transition that will not be complete until the 20th of October and this has been going on since around the beginning of September. So I really would like an easy fix to my problem.
I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

Transfer purchases from the old iPad into iTunes, backup the iPad with iTunes and sync one last time.

Why do some of my songs have an exclamation point in Itunes? When I try to play it gives an error message that it can be located?
This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

When I try to sync my iphone with itunes, it tells me a warning that I don't have enough memory and yet the status bar at the bottom says that I do and I know that I have enough memory. What's the problem? It happens with the ipods and ipad as well!!!
The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

i downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?
hi philly, thanks for getting back to me, especially on such a busy day.
I don't think that's quite the issue though. I bought an album and it appears in 'my purchases' within the itunes app. Yet, in order to listen to the music, i must use the 'music' app and in this application, there are only three tracks displayed at any one time from my downloaded album.
I can 'download all' from the 'my purchases' section but that still doesn't help, it just keeps the last three tracks downloaded in the music app.
I have the 'icloud' enabled and wondered if it had anything to do with that.
i have successfully downloaded another full album totally into the music app, but this first album is causing me problems. -

It's set appropriately in settings, the volume is turned up all the way with the side buttons, but no volume. When we try to play songs, it acts like it's going to play and then goes back to the play list. Restored the device and still no sound.
Try A and B
(A) Restart iPad
1. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
2. Drag the slider to turn off iPad.
3. Turn iPad back on, hold down the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears
(B) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
