Why do my iTunes U files sync to BOTH "Music" and "iTunes U" on my i phone?

Syncing to a clean (restored) iPhone, when I sync my "iTunes U" files they are sent to both "iTunes U" and Music on my iPhone. In iTunes it shows the files in "iTunes U", but NOT in the Music section, even though they have actually been put in Music as well as "iTunes U" on the iPhone itself. Could someone please tell me how to keep this duplication from happening ?? Thanks !!!

This is the same problem with video being duplicated in the movies section. A related forum here:

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
          Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
          Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
          Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
          Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
          Advantages: All images should be preserved.
          Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

45 min long session of log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms

45 min long log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms
Encountering a rather unusual performance issue. Once every 4 hours I am seeing a 45 minute long log file sync wait event being reported using Spotlight on Oracle. For the first 30 minutes the event wait is for approx 5000 ms, followed by an increase to around 20000 ms for the next 15 min before rapidly dropping off and normal operation continues for the next 3 hours and 15 minutes before the cycle repeats itself. The issue appears to maintain it's schedule independently of restarting the database. Statspack reports do not show an increase in commits or executions or any new sql running during the time the issue is occuring. We have two production environments both running identicle applications with similar usage and we do not see the issue on the other system. I am leaning towards this being a hardware issue, but the 4 hour interval regardless of load on the database has me baffled. If it were a disk or controller cache issue one would expect to see the interval change with database load.
I cycle my redo logs and archive them just fine with log file switches every 15-20 minutes. Even during this unusally long and high session of log file sync waits I can see that the redo log files are still switching and are being archived.
The redo logs are on a RAID 10, we have 4 redo logs at 1 GB each.
I've run statspack reports on hourly intervals around this event:
Top 5 Wait Events
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total
Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time

enqueue 810 21,423 .75
log file sequential read 65,540 14,480 .50
And here is a sample while not encountering the issue:

db file scattered read 67,584 2,427 .66
Yes I know I am already tight on I/O for my redo even during normal operations yet, my redo and archiving works just fine for 3 hours and 15 minutes (11 to 15 log file switches). These normal switches result in a log file sync wait of about 5000 ms for about 45 seconds while the 1GB redo log is being written and then archived.
I welcome any and all feedback.

Lee,
log_buffer = 1048576 we use a standard of 1 MB for our buffer cache, we've not altered the setting. It is my understanding that Oracle typically recommends that you not exceed 1MB for the log_buffer, stating that a larger buffer normally does not increase performance.
I would agree that tuning the log_buffer parameter may be a place to consider; however, this issue last for ~45 minutes once every 4 hours regardless of database load. So for 3 hours and 15 minutes during both peak usage and low usage the buffer cache, redo log and archival processes run just fine.
A bit more information from statspack reports:
Here is a sample while the issue is occuring.

Automatic File Sync aka "use it and forget it"

Is it possible to invoke File Sync in a non-interactive way. I want file syncing to be automatic and done "under the covers" for one of our user groups. Failing that, is there any APIs that could be used to build some custom code?

The Auto Tool rocks. I admit it takes some getting used to. And I definitely turn off the Auto Tool locking feature in Tools > Options (in case I do need to Tab or Space). In the rare circumstance where I need some tool behavior that the Auto Tool doesn't readily provide, I just shift-right click to bring up the Tools palettes and just keep going. Plus, the auto tool seems to get a little smarter with each LabVIEW release.
And just so y'all don't think I'm biased, there are NI people who disagree...one of my teammates, in fact, who is an old-school LabVIEW guy, hates the Auto Tool and has never switched to using it. But whenever I occasionally need to use an older, pre-autotool version of LabVIEW for whatever reason, I feel totally crippled having to Tab/Space every time I need a new tool.
You should find that after you get used to it, the Auto Tool speeds up your LabVIEW programming tremendously.

Why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad

why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad same with face time

I looked into your question and believe I may have a solution for you.
Your iMessages likely aren't syncing because of a bug in iOS 5. Syncing iMessages between iOS devices is supposed to happen automatically, but sometimes it does not.
You could likely manually activate syncing by navigating to Setttings --> Messages --> Receive At --> Caller ID on both your iPad and iPhone and selecting your Apple ID.

Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

I think I may be having the same issue In a round about kind of way. Just got an iPhone4S ... everything worked great until today when I started tinkering with the settings in my new phone and noticed my cloud was getting full and I had two iPhone back ups on there at 4GB a piece. So.... I deleted the old back up of the iPhone4 and after that is when I started noticing issues. The cloud on my phone can no longer authenticate itself , unable to tell me when the last back up was, and will not perform a back up at all. Furthermore I am unable to download apps or updates on my iphone4S, they all sit in "waiting" status....
I also must say that I purchased an iPad 2 and still have my original ipad in the house and active. Both back ups are in the cloud and both devices work fine independently and can download apps and back up fine as well. I'm pretty sure this may be the culprit concerning this issue and I too have no idea how to fix it. Please Help!!!

Sync problems with music and podcasts

Hi there,
whenever I put new content to the music playlists or I got new podcasts loaded down by iTunes to sync them to the iPhone, the first sync process breaks down. The iPhone applies again after 10 seconds in a locked condition so I have to unlock it fisrt to keep on syncing.
I always have to sync twice to get a result. For example, to get new songs to the iPhone, first I have to put the songs on the iTunes playlist, then I have to sync with a disabled checkbox at "music" (the complete music will be erased at the iPhone) and then I have to sync again with an enabled checkbox (complete music will be sync comletely new at the iPhone).
It takes a lot of time to do the sync process in this way, can anybody help me? Am I doing something wrong?
Best regards

Another user recently reported a similar problem and it turned out to be an issue with email.
What I would do would be to turn off all syncing except for music and podcasts, reset your phone (perhaps even restore) and try the sync and see if it works. If it does at least you can narrow it down to something other than music and podcasts.

While trying to sync a new iphone5S and a ipod touch the contact phone numbers disappeared. Where would I be able to retrieve them at?

While trying to sync an ipod touch and a new iphone 5S the phone numbers in my contacts was erased. The other information on them in the contacts is still there but the phone numbers on everyone is gone. Does anyone know how to retrieve the phone numbers.

Welcome to the discussions,
you can check your saved backups in iTunes/settings/devices
then choose restore ipod and select your old backup to restore from.

Think you got to reboot or relaunch iTunes after the Authorization.

If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way? In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.

Yes. You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

i had the same fright
The update takes a LONG time... but with the new system, you can keep using your phone during the update, so it doesnt FEEL like it is updating...
you have probably interrupted the update, just like I did
plug your phone in... "continue the update" or hit the sync button to psh it in... and leave it there
unless you have enabled sync over wifi (which still only works when you are plugged in)
just be patient... and there shouldbe a flashing "synching" symbol at the top of your phone screen

Why won't MVI movie files sync to iPad?

I sync home photos and movies between my iMac and iPad. I first take pictures & videos with a camera, download into iPhoto on my iMac, then sync to my iPad. My problem is with movies.
I use two different cameras for movies -- a Sony and a Canon. All works fine with movies taken with a Sony camera, which after downloading to iPhoto, appear as a 'MOV###" file. Those files sync and play everywhere, including on my iPad.
However, movies I shoot with a Canon camera download into iPhoto as a "MVI###" file. Those files play fine in iPhoto on my iMac but will not sync to my iPad.
When I attempt to sync those MVI movies to my iPad I get a warning message saying 'those files did not sync because they can not be played on iPad'
How do I get those MVI movie files to sync to the iPad?
I assume the problem is a formating issue,... but I don't know how to go about the best fix.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

1, I don't think it's worth swapping the Canon camera for something else only because of this incompatibility. (BTW, which model is it?)
2, I've tested the workflow myself with my Canon G1X and Canon S100 videos, with the above-mentioned ipadfix.py file and directly synching videos imported / dragged to the desktop iPhoto via the "Photos" tab in iTunes. Unfortunately, iPhoto doesn't have any H.264 level adjustment (which would be sufficient) capabilities.
All in all, you can do the following to simplify the workflow: before importing to iPhoto, run the ipadfix.py script to set the H.264 level to an iPad-compliant one. It's only after this that you should import the video to iPhoto. Then, iTunes will happily synch the file from iPhoto to the iPad.
Another option is the above-mentioned QT export, but, as I've pointed out, it WILL degrade the image quality as it, instead of changin a single descriptor byte in the file, recompresses(!) the entire thing.
In addition, also send a request to Apple to remove this absolutely unnecessary limitation, pointing out that a lot of cameras out there (most current Canon models) use H.264 level 5.0 by error, and Apple makes it impossible to synch the videos created by these cameras to iPads absolutely unnecessarily. (They don't allow to synch anything over level 4.1.)
