Cancelled the backup stage (as always)

Why would you do that?

Because it takes over an hour.

Does anyone's else take anything like that amount of time? Mine only takes about 10 seconds and I've filled 26GB of my 32GB iPod Touch, but I do have a pretty good PC.

[Victor Mildew]

About 5 mins at worst for me, but then i hardly ever sync so it has more to back up each time.

[Tafdolphin]

Nope, definitely over an hour.

[Mafro]

I found it only takes that long if you don't back it up regularly.

I thought this once and did it twice in a row to see what happened and they both took the same, ridiculously long, amount of time.

Which part? If there's no "convert to AAC" button you need to change your CD import settings in the preferences.

I've trimmed an mp3 of the sound I want. Converted to AAC. Put on iPhone and synced.

But there's no option to use it as my alert tone.

Is there a free web file sharing I can use? I can upload the file for you and you can download it?

MGS codec ringtone. I've checked if it uploads fine via itunes into my 4s. It's there.

Sorry I cant check if it is the actual codec sound or the quality.

Have you stuck it into the "ringtones" section on iTunes?

[Corazon de Leon]

Good day. I'm trying to sort out all the album names and artwork on my iTunes on my mac(this may be better suited for a different thread). Is there any quick way to do this, and why does changing the album name for a song in a compilation album try to change the album name for all other songs in that album? It's annoying me.

They need to release voice packs for Siri. I couldn't help but hear that in Stephen Fry's voice.

[Eighthours]

Nope, definitely over an hour.

It does this once when you haven't backed up for aaaaaaages. The backups are quick thereafter. It's a pain, but you just have to give it a block of time every once in a while.

4S battery update

100% this morning

Listening to music since 9:30am till now, sent 5 texts and updated 4 apps using 3G

[Mafro]

What is it you're trying to do again, Pete?

[Rubix]

about the same, 80% this morning and 58% now with music on nonstop and checking email/forums frequently \o/

Down to 76% now, still listening to music, played Bejewelled and sent a couple of texts

Is FIDO your network? Or have you renamed it? Always wanted to do that...

I couldn't see it

On the top left of the itunes, there should be a list like Movies, TV Shows, etc.

Just drag the file onto the one that says "ringtones."

And click on your iphone/ipod/ipad, click on ringtones tab on the main area and then click on synch.

And if ringtones aren't there... it's probably because you need to update to the latest itunes software. But I doubt this is the case because it would have prompted you to install it if you have a hardware with IOS5 already installed.

Can you not just use iRinger?
