Why is there a 100 song limit on SLVR?

Why am i limited to 100 songs? I can kinda understand 128kbps restriction but i have something like 112 mb lefton my memory card and im not allowed to use it. It doesnt really make sense to have a limit on the number of songs unless there is a reason it needs 112 mb free (which i dont see as necessary.) I mean w/ the 128 kbps restriction AND 100 songs restriction each song would have to be like 10 minutes long to ever utilize the entire memory card.

Well, i cant understand it from a user point of view. Its a company telling me what i can and cant do with my property. I own this SLVR and i own the music i want to put on it (some of it even purchased from apple.) I just called tech support and (obviously) they couldnt offer tech support for the SLVR but when i asked them about itunes they said it would cost 50 dollars to raise an issue/ask a question. Thats right... 50 dollars to ask a question about free software. It just doesnt make any sense. The worst part is i actually just purchased a 5g 60gb ipod recently and had ongoing video problems nobody wanted to address. I think the best thing for me to do is to round up all my Apple ipods, phones, cases, cords, car-kits and head-phones (as well as their reciepts) and decide if it is worth the headaches.

  • We should call itunes to remove the 100 song limit on the slvr

    Hi all,
    Who can we talk to/ email/ bug to get the 100 song limit removed on the SLVR? I feel that it is a cheap misrepresentation to advertise that the SLVR is also an mp3 player without mentioning the 100 song cap. And when you call the tech support for Motorola or Itunes, they both say they have NOTHING to do with the limit and it's the "other guy" who imposes the limit. This must be the corporate response. How slimy!

  • Why is there call duration counter limit in s60?

    Hi,
    That limit does NOT apply to low-cost s40 devices but s60 Symbian phones like my E55.
    Problem: In Log menu > Call Duration > Total (All) Calls' Duration, the counter CANNOT exceed 99:99:99, which means 100 hours at total. When you have your total call duration counter over 100 hours, the counter returns back to track call durations from zero, 00:00:00.
    WHY?
    Symbian lacks most of this basic features when compared to s40 which is a shame!
    Any comment is appreciated!

    Probably beause someone at Nokia thought 10 years ago when it was first implemented that 99:99:99 would be enough, and because since then it never was important enough for anyone to bother changing because the priorities were elsewhere.
    Now, with Symbian in, more or less, maintenance mode, I don't expect anyone to change it any longer (unless some Nokia engineer with the power to fix it does it without asking for permission from anyone).

  • Why is there a 30 day limit for email on the Playbook

    Sorry this isn't really a support question but I was wondering if anyone knows why they maintained the maximum 30 day limit on email etc for the Playbook.  I kinda understand the logic for a phone (although it would be nice to have the option of all my mail) but I use my playbook differently and really need all my mail not just the last 30 days.

    Thanks so much for the best of all of your choice by email again then we will not receive this email is not responsible or so of this tag only one I have been the best time for your help and the next level of risk from you again and learn how much you owe.
    Yep, the above is seekrit code explaining the why part. If I tell more they might harm me.

  • Why is there grayed out songs on my iPhone?

    I use iTunes Match and there are grayed out songs that appear on my iPhone music app. Is there a possible fix to this?

    Don't think so, but I may change my mind when announced.
    I purchased the iPhone 4S the first week in November last year, so I don't qualify for a fully subsidized discount until next June. I qualify for an early upgrade now, but would prefer holding out for the full subsidy unless the new iPhone makes me change my mind.
    How about you?

  • Why is there a 5 computer limit fo synching with Itunes? What if the other 5 computers have crashed.hard drive dead how do I sync with a new computer if I can't "de-authorise" old computer??

    I have a few (8) computers with some having died of old age and hardiac failure with itunes loaded and synced with my devices. Need to sync current content but cannot "authorise" another more youthful computer without access to the old dearly departed computers. What gives- was this scenario not foreseen. is there no other way to de-authorise a computer but to perform a resurrection of the dead?

    Use the Deauthorize All command documented in this article.

  • Why is there an iPad store item limit?

    Why is there a limit when browsing the newsstand and ibook stores on my iPad of a maximum of 100 items that can be shown? this seems counterproductive and limits my ability to see what i may want to buy?

    Yep,
    Well I have muted the sound on my ipad through my wireless keyboard, however my music volume is turned up to full. When my music volume is turned to zero as well as everything being muted it makes that scratchy sound.
    HOWEVER, i noticed it only happens when it is muted via my bluetooth wireless keyboard. What's the correlation?

  • I set up Icloud, now when I try to listen to a song on my ipone 5s it asks me if I want to "download over cellular"? and additional fees may apply.  I've already bought this music, why would there be any more fees?

    I bought my first Iphone - the Iphone S about a month ago.  I was able to listen to music no problem.  I recently figured out how to get my photos off of my phone and on to my PC, but was prompted to sign up for ICloud to do it.  Now when I try to listen to music on my phone, it asks me to download it from Icloud and asks "download over cellular"?  "Additional fees may apply when downloading phones over cellular".  I've already bought all my music, why would there be more fees and shouldn't ICloud have mentioned this?  Seems I need to take a class just to figure all this out.

    The clouds you see next to your music on the device and iCloud are two different things. When your music is not on your device it is in iTunes in the Cloud. Not the same thing as iCloud which is used to sync information between devices and house backups of your device contents. So that little cloud you see next to your songs is telling you that the music is not on your device. That's why it is giving you the message - because when you click on it, it is attempting to download it to your device.
    What may have happened is when you imported your photos to the PC, you may have sync'd your device via iTunes, and you did not have the Sync Music option checked in your device Profile screen.
    Hook up your device to your PC and open iTunes. Make sure the sidebar is showing (Control+S if you cannot see the sidebar with Devices listed), and click on your device to open the Device Profile screens to the right. Click on the Music tab, and make sure that the Sync All Music or Sync Selected Music box is checked. If you have Sync Selected Music checked, then below that, make sure you check all music that you want on your device. Then click on SYNC at the bottom (or APPLY).
    Once you have successfully sync'd your music to your device, you will no longer see the cloud next to the songs, and you also will no longer get a message since you will have the songs physically on your device and not in iTunes in the Cloud.

  • Why is there a limit on the number of times a "DVD player region" can be changed, and can it be adjusted for more region changes, or an indefinite number of region changes?

    Why is there a limit on the number of times a "DVD player region" can be changed, and can this numbert be adjusted for more region changes, or an indefinite number of region changes?

    Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
    Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
    Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

  • I have downloaded an album through itunes and there are 4 songs that have a cloud with a red arrow pointing downwards, when I click on it it says unable to download at this time.  Why is this?

    i have purchased an album via itunes and there are 4 songs that have a cloud with an red arrow pointing down, when I click on it it says unable to download at this time.   Why?

    I'm not sure if they could tell you but you could try contacting Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click iTunes>iTunes Store>Purchases, Billing & Redemption.  You will need your serial number, which you can find in Settings>General>About.

  • Having synced my ipod, there are certain artists missing from the list on the ipod, but the tracks are there under the songs list.  Any reason why and how do i correct this.  Thanks.

    Having synced my ipod, there are certain artists missing from the list on the ipod, but the tracks are there under the songs list.  Any reason why and how do i correct this.  Thanks.

    We'll assume for now, that all the songs and albums in your iTunes Library are correctly labelled (dangerous assumption, by the way!), and that a Compilation album is one with songs by different artists. Unfortunately, the music industry (bless their little cotton socks!) often mark an album by one artist, that has a collection of their songs from old albums, as a compilation! iTunes doesn't think it is!
    The missing artists will be those who only appear on Compilation albums. For example, if you have one song by Fleetwood Mac in your Library, and it's on a multi-artist Compilation album, then Fleetwood Mac will not be listed in the Artists menu. But, if you then import a Fleetwood Mac album (or even a Fleetwood Mac single) into your Library, then not only will Fleetwood Mac appear under Artists, but the song by them in the Compilation album will also be listed.
    One way to sort this out is to remove the Compilations option from the Main Menu and the Music Menu on your iPod. To do this, go to Settings/Main Menu/Compilations and press the Select (centre) button to turn off the tick. Then repeat this in the Settings/Music Menu/Compilations.
    You should now find the missing artists listed in the Artists menu.
    By the way, I now routinely check all albums I import from CD into my iTunes Library. Before I start the import procedure, I make sure that Compilation CD is turned on (highlight the album in the import window and right-click/Compilation CD) if it really is a multi-artist CD - and off if it's a single artist CD. Once imported, I manually change the album info to; (highlight album and select ) File/Get Info/Info/Album Artist has "Various Artists" in the box. Make sure it's the Album Artist box, not the Artist box.

  • Why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

    why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?

    The "streaming" that iTunes Match does is not the traditional streaming we are used to. iOS 6 actually downloads the song to non-permanent memory on the iOS device in a cache. The advantage of this is it then makes the tracks available for listening to again without having to stream it again. You can clear out the cache by either power cycling the device or disabling/enabling iTM. I prefer doing the former.

  • HT4914 I have about 70,000 songs, almost all of them are MP3s burned from CDs. Is there a way to increase the 25,000 song limit in iTunes Match, by paying more, for example?

    I have about 70,000 songs, almost all of them are MP3s burned from CDs. Is there a way to increase the 25,000 song limit in iTunes Match, by paying more, for example?

    Right now the limit is what it is, 25,000 tracks. Tracks purchased from the iTunes Store do not count against that number. Whether Apple has any plans to increase that limit none of us here, who are all just fellow users, will know. We'll have to wait and see.

  • Is there a 100 column report limit and/or a problem editing dynamic reports

    APEX Gurus
    I have a report which is generated dynamically, the source being a PL/SQL function body returning SQL query. The on-screen output is generated using mod plsql, i.e. an html table.
    If I run the report with parameters which return more than 100 columns, all are displayed on screen
    However, if I click on the (standard functionality) 'export to csv' link at the bottom of the report, not all of the columns are exported.
    If I navigate to the report definition page, firstly a pop-up error appears: "A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to debug? Line 272 Error: ';' Expected". If I click 'no' then the report definition appears. There are 100 columns listed 'Col01', 'Col02', 'Col03' ... 'Col100'.
    I can't edit anything on the page without getting an error when I apply changes:-
    ORA-20505: Error in DML: p_rowid=107779820132310508, p_alt_rowid=ID, p_rowid2=79506526374684203, p_alt_rowid2=SECURITY_GROUP_ID. ORA-20503: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = "E8F1BCECF94FAD8DF3ECC3E74BCC4D50" application checksum = "0"

ORA-20503: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = "E8F1BCECF94FAD8DF3ECC3E74BCC4D50" application checksum = "0"
    The only option is a hyperlink to go back: 'Return to application'. No changes are saved.
    I am wondering if I am hitting 2 problems:-
    1. APEX can't handle more than 100 columns
    2. APEX can't handle editing of the page once it has been created?
    Does anyone have any good ideas/seen this before?
    Could it be related to this Is it a bug (Form with more than 100 items/columns) ?
    Is this a bug or an undocumented feature?
    All help appreciated.

    I created a report with the following query
    SELECT 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,
           11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,
           21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,
           31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,
           41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,
           51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,
           61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,
           71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,
           81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,
           91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100
    FROM DUAL
    {code}
    It created a 100 column report and I was able to manipulate the report the same as any other. So maybe it is not the fact that there are 100 columns. I know its not an answer to your question but maybe it can help.
