WHY WONT IT SWITCH?

alright so on my iTunes library it has all my files in AAC and it takes up 5.50 GB.
but wen i connect and update my iPod, and i look at the library that my actual iPod currently contains, some of the files are still in mp3 even tho theyve been converted for about a week.
how do i update my iPod so that the AAC type of the file is on it instead of the old mp3 version???
half are in AAC and half are in mp3 but they were all converted at the same time..

help anyone?
am i doin sumtin wrong?

  • Switchy Switch Why wont it switch????

    alright so i converted ALL my files to AAC format. They used to be mp3 files but i switched to conserve space.
    MOST of my files on my iPod also switched to AAC format. but some are staying in mp3 format, therefor taking up more room then wat is stored on my computer.
    on my iTunes library (without my iPod connected) it says i have used 5.50 GB. But when i connect my iPod and check the library that is actually on my iPod (not the library with the files that are actually on the COMPUTER) it says i am using 5.90 GB.
    Ive updated many many times and still they wont change.
    Am i doing something dumb?does anyone have a solution?

    Restore the iPod.
    Did you delete the old MP3s after you converted them? If not, they both may be getting sync'd to the iPod.
    Also, if you have the CDs you ripped from, you may want to go back and re-RIP them into AAC.
    If they were originally MP3 and then you converted to AAC, these are both a Lossy compression so the sound will get worse each time it is converted.
    A 128 kbps AAC will sound at least as good as a 160 kbps MP3 but will take up less space.
    A file converted to MP3 128 kbps will be very close to the same size as a file converted to AAC 128 kbps.

  • HT4314 Why wont apple let you disable or unregister from gamecenter!? why?

    Why wont apple let you disable or unregister from gamecenter?! Iv done everything I can but games log into it reactivated its notifications aswell. It auto logs me back in...I want apple to let you unregister completely why not?? I have disabled all notifications from Gamecenter romoved all games listed, i deleted my email adress registered, i changed my user name...and loged out but games reactivate it, I also noticed it still keeps a record of your previous score and when reactivated relists all games on your handset again aswell.

    I feel the same way -- I would REALLY like to remove this misbegotten piece of junk completely. I would SETTLE for being able to disable it -- although there are instructions for "disabling" it, it doesn't STAY disabled. I have followed the instructions, removed my email address (although it still uses my email address as the login and won't allow me to ACTUALLY remove it), made my profile private, then signed out... And the next time the device is powered back on, the account is logged in again and insisting on trying to connect to every game I play. So I deny access, "disable" it, sign out, etc, again... ad infinitum, ad nauseum.
    When the rest of my family switched to android, I stubbornly stayed with my beloved iOS devices and my Macs, but this annoyance -- which WILL NOT go away -- almost makes me think I should reconsider. I HATE Game Center, and want it off my devices.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • Why wont premiere CS6 export .mp4's?

    why wont premiere CS6 export .mp4's?  Everytime i try to export h264 mp4's the final export is an unrecognizable .m4v file.
    I read about this 'bug' in a thread started over 8 months ago,  and read that the 'work around' is to export with audio on. (my videos have no audio channels, so why would i want to save them and make them larger, by encoding them with audio?)
    I am preparing to switch from Final Cut 7, to Premiere Pro, but i'm concerned to do so as this bug apparnetly was never fixed by adobe, almost a year later.  There seems to be no way to encode an .mp4 without audio using Premiere Pro CS6 or Media Encoder CS6.  Is there any kind of patch or another way to export .mp4's?
    thanks.

    That is exactly my point!  Why should I have to export an audio channel and increase the file size to work around a known bug of the software...
    We export about 100 videos a day and it will add up.  These are files that will be online, and size is an issue.
    I'm just not sure that we'll want to invest in software with a known bug that hasn't been addressed after months. 
    I was hoping that maybe there was a patch or update that I haven't found yet.  Thanks all.

  • Why wont apple let me download apps without a credit card?

    Why wont apple let me get an apple ID without a "no credit card" suggestion in the payment method?
    I dont buy my apps and I dont understand why my sister (and other people) were able to make an apple ID without putting a credit card.
    Though I can enter my apple ID account when it comes to the game center, when I try to download an app that problem always appears. So now I'm using my sister's ID, but I really want to have my own. 

    Follow it through to the payment methods and choose None if it is available.

    I have an ipod touch and now it doesnt sync properly. It gets to stage 1 of 3 of syncing( Which is 'backing up') Then it stops and itunes closes. Why wont this sync and what can I do about it?

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Restart the Computer. This sometimes happens to me when I keep my Windows 7 on Sleep, and I try to sync my Ipod
    Make sure you have the latest version of Itunes
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

  • I uploaded the giftcard money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
