Hi all! I have a 2nd generation ipod shuffle that I have had for approximately 2 years or so. I use it several times a week, mainly to listen to podcasts while at the gym. A few days ago it suddenly stopped playing podcasts, but would still play music. If I put a podcast on it, instead of...

Hi all, My Etymotic ER-6i's got stolen recently so I took the opportunity to upgrade to ER-4p's. Unfortunately, I am left with a bunch of extra eartips and filters and a filter changing tool for the 6i's which won't fit the 4p's. If anyone is interested, I will send everything to you free...

Hi everyone, I have something to complain about unfortunately, and since you are all gadget people you may benefit from my experience. I had a Samsung bluetooth headset for my cell phone that no longer functions, which I figure is not a huge deal since it's still under warranty. However...

Hi everyone. It finally happened (it was bound to, eventually) - my hard drive crashed. Fortunately, all my music and other media files were backed up onto an external drive, so the files are fine. However, when I reimported the files into iTunes after getting a new hard drive, all my ratings...

Since I have updated iTunes to version 7.? it takes upwards of 30 minutes to sync, whether I'm actually adding any new files or not. It isn't using a ton of CPU, and it doesn't appear to be doing anything other than "updating ipod". But for 30 minutes to an hour? It is extremely annoying...

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me out. I downloaded the Macworld podcast a few days ago, and then the next time I synced I noticed it had somehow disappeared. I had not started listening to it at all. I had not even accessed the file on ipod or itunes, other than checking to see that it...

Hi everybody. I've done a few searches and am surprised that no one else is having my problem. Whenever I try to manage a video file, whether it's a TV show, movie, or music video, Itunes simply freezes up and goes to "Not Responding" so that I must pull up task manager and shut down the...

Hi everybody; I have another strange problem. Occasionally, when a track starts, it will appear to be playing, in that the counter advances and the "play" triangle icon shows, but I get no sound. The headphone jack is securely inserted, and the volume is up. Generally, I can fix it by turning...

I have an 80gb video ipod. Although it plays everything else fine, including video files, some video podcasts do not seem to be supported. After I download them to Itunes, I try to sync and get an error message that says "these files were not copied to ipod because your ipod does not support...

Hi guys...I have a problem I hope someone can help with. I moved my music library to the external drive a few weeks ago. Most of the time, everything is fine, but sometimes (I think this has happened 3 or 4 times so far) Itunes, for no apparent reason, forgets where my music is located and...

Hi...I'm not sure if this is even the right place to post this question; sorry if not. I did a search for Rockbox and found many posters that said they use Rockbox in leiu of Itunes, and I'm curious as to a: exactly what it is, and b: what makes it better? Thanks!:confused:
