Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Have you tried switching to managing your iPod manually and dragging and dropping?
Also, for whatever reason, I used to have problems loading audio podcasts onto my iPod, I found if I deleted the podcast from iTunes and downloaded it again, it would then transfer to my iPod. I don't know why it worked, but it did.
It keeps on ejecting my nano before I can do that - it will automatically sync and then automatically eject.
That's why it's frustrating me.
Are anyone else's Tivo program listings all screwed up? I went to the site to see if El Fuckwit was going to mess with Supernatural night and extend the recording just in case, but the guide seems to think we've bumped forward in time five or six hours.
Like, it shows right now to to be 5:30 p.m., but the programming clearly still daytime stuff. It's got SPN listed as broadcasting at 2 a.m. Help? I've got stuff to do after work and I'm going to be hella pissed if all my scheduled stuff is messed up.
Brenda, has it possibly changed your time zone?
To the middle of the Atlantic, apparently. I'm trying to figure out how to check that. (And honestly, did ever a product as glorious as Tivo have a more frustrating, useless web platform backing it up? I get stressed out every time I have to go there.)
sumi, in iTunes, go under edit, the Preferences, and on the devices tab, try checking "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and see if you can stay connected then.
Thanks - I will try that.
Ah, no - that didn't work.
My nano ejects as soon as it connects. Could I have too much stuff on my itunes or something?
However, I uninstalled a useless "communcator" thing that was my university-centric and suddenly my computer is working much, much faster.
I'm tempted to restart and then see if I can get nano to update manually.
Hey, can someone tell me the difference between a web address that is "www.mywebsite/mystuff" and "www.mystuff.mywebsite" ? Is one more desirable than the other? if so, why?
We're debating renaming my program's website, and I'd like to be able to respond intelligently. The people I'm working with are idiots not very web savvy, so I'm trying to explain why at least some of the changes that they want are stupid. Two people are arguing about this difference, one thinks that mystuff.mywebsite "looks better", and I want to know the difference.
