This was happening to me the other day on my 40gb b&w iPod (4th generation?). Re-syncing those songs with itunes fixed it. I actually wiped it and reloaded the lot just in ca…

what do you mean by re-synching? Sorry but I am not that clued up with all this downloading business.

I mean deleting the affected songs from your ipod, and then letting itunes put them back for you.

Try a restore and reload.

ok so I did this, I took my songs off and put them back onto the ipod, it worked and the songs palyed again. For a few days!!! It keeps happening.

I'm hoping it fixes the "external drive" bug... If you store your music on an external drive, and plug a shuffle in when the external drive is not connected, it erases everything …

Some music from itunes would not play on the shuffle , caused it to lock up. I think this has fixed it

I hope the popping problem was fixed. Whenever I play a long AAC Bookmarkable file it will start popping and have 10+ second delays in pausing or changing volume. Very annoying.

Did the Shuffle have Sound Check before?

i have the same problem. Hope it is being fixed with the current update.

I've got a slightly different version of that scheme deployed on one site, which uses GD to resize a photo on upload and generate a thumbnail that's stored elsewhere. (It's a slowe…

I wouldn't do this if I were you, to be honest. At the absolute least I wouldn't have them generated on the fly every time; scaling images is usually very processor-intensive and s…

Fascinating. I think for my purposes I'm persuaded that the best approach is to auto-generate the thumbnails when the images are first uploaded. But would that entail triggering s…

I have a script that uses GD to pull it off. And I use multiviews to pass variables to the script. So I don't actually have an images directory, but rather images.php which handl…
