I don't think there's any authorization for AAC files that are ripped from a CD. Only from AACs purchased from iTMS which include Fairplay.

I've run into issues with aacs I've ripped from my own cds... when moving them from one computer to another, I get the infamous "you are not authorized to play these blah blah blah…

Topic.....Some, but not all, of the album art from songs I have purchased from ITMS doesn't get transfered over to the iPod photo. In iTunes, the artwork shows up fine, but not on …

There was something written about this on an Apple Knowledge base about this and iTunes 4.7.1 not transfering Album art to the iPod Photo. I was having the issue when I read it. …

sweet, i never knew it was supposed to do that..... SuperNova

Thanks - had the same problem, and this has solved it. David

Great! It took me a little bit to find the problem I just happened across it one day on the iPod support site while I was looking something else up on the iPod

hey, My album art does not work with the my ipod. and I did what you guys suggested but when i click the box for the 2nd time to updated the ipod. it gives me hte message unknow…

I am currently studying abroad in France and found out there is an apple reseller not far from where I am staying. I asked them when they would get hte shuffle and they said proba…

iPods have a menu option to change between many options, so that should not be a problem. As shuffles don't have a screen and get their power from the USB port, there should be no…

You could set two different accounts if you have bank accounts in the US and France, thereby letting you purchase music from both iTMS.

Buying an iPod in another country is no problem at all. I've bought iPods in Germany and in the US. You can easily switch between different languages and, as was said before, the o…

Will work fine with the exception of the power adaptor which will require a plug adaptor when you get back to the US. Of course iPods are much much much more expensive here in F…

If you can, get an iPod from the US. It's not only cheaper, but it also has no volume restriction. The EU iPods have volume restrictions in their firmware (I think), and it did ann…

By the way, I'm in Paris and I just bit the bullet and bought a 1gb shuffle (the last one in stock) at an Apple reseller on Blvd St Germain. Apple has finally started marketing the…

I've heard from a kid who claims to have a 512MB shuffle, that it won't play an mp3 that is longer than 25 mins. Can anyone verify or check this?? I have no idea why they would l…

Even if that was true, that would only affect the minorty of users. Spoken & Word tracks is definitely NOT the main 'music' genre of the target audience of the Shuffle. -t

if that were true, it would be a problem for many symphonies and chamber works. movements of 30+ minutes are not uncommon. in any case, i highly doubt it's true.

this would be extremely untrue. Also think of how many DJ sets are out there. apple would be in a world of hurt if this were true.

I personally enjoy listening to dj sets that I download weekly off the net. That was my motivation for ordering the suffle. I sold my G3 iPod because I never had it full of songs…

That would definitely just suck. And I would consider it to be the type of problem that Apple should fix, rather than blame customers or tell customers to buy another product.
