Continuous play and window minimize

I have not used my itunes for a while on my home computer. I play it at work almost every day. I came home tonight and turned it on and it plays one song and stops. I have to go and click on the next song. At work, it just plays various songs. I think I have it set to random at work. Tonight, I want it to play through the libray, in order by the album. But it just plays one song and waits for me to click on the next. Obvious someone (my son I would guess) has clicked on something to turn off continuous play. Under control, I see a choice for play, which I've chosen and it plays one song. I also clicked on the play arrow in the gray bar at the top, and it plays one song. Shuffle and repeat are options at the bottome of the control pull down menu.
How do I get to just play until I tell it to stop?
Also, when I click on the green button at the top left of the itunes window, to minimize the window down into the small gray box for the tiniest control, it doesn't shrink, it just jumps to the right about an inch. Each time I click the green button, it jumps left or right an inch or so, but does not shrink/minimize at all. How do I get that to work again? oh, I'm running itunes 9.0
I HATE it when kids, (even young adult kids) mess with my stuff and then are not home to help fix it!!!

Look at the songs in your music library. If the small box left of the song's name does not have a checkmark, it will only play when you click on it. Normally, all your songs will have a check, except those you want to exclude, like Christmas songs when it's not the season.
You can checkmark all songs at once by holding the command key and clicking the box for one song.
If your iTunes is version 9.0, you can get the mini player by holding the option key while clicking the green button. If you upgrade to iTunes 9.0.1, the green button behavior is "fixed" to work as it always has. To upgrade, select "Software Update" under your Mac's  menu.

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing? As it goes now, one clicks on the song in the new playlist where the arrow is and then chooses 'Play Song Next.' So, it plays next, but then the song after that is back in the old playlist. I want to use iTunes smoothly without the extra clicks I've had to do in order to get the playlist to continue. This is music for background while I play the violin at restaurants, and extra clicks and hassle is quite unappreciated, especailly since it worked fine in the previous iTunes.
Thanks.

At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

For certain songs on my iPhone 4s with iOS7 some songs stop playing audio but continue playing the song almost as if it were muted. Where can I fix this? Say "Stronger" by Kanye West stops playing sound after 2:25 but it is 5 minutes long.

Basically it is just like it says. Certain songs stop playing sound after a certain point in the song but the song continues playing and ticking down like it normally would. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi I found the answer from another post. So far everything is working find. I been trying to fix this since march,

Deleting the application rarely solves anything on Macs. A better starting point is normally to delete the preference file for the application (in Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist) or see if you have the same problem in another user account on the computer.

Mike, deleting the preferences did the trick, but I don't know why. Itunes downloaded 5 days of podcast! Hurray!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!

AE CS5 (10.0.1.19) Ram Preview - Audio stops and continue playing randomly

I already reported this issue to Adobe as a BUG but I want to ask here if somebody else have this problem or can confirm it.
Audio breaks/stops and continue playing randomly when 'Ram Previewing'
It happens mostly when the RAM is fully filled up with image cache files! When the Ram is not filled up totally with image cache files it happens rarely!
Steps to reproduce BUG / issue:
1. create a new composition with a length of for example 5 minutes.
2. create a new solid with size of 50x50 pixel and animate the position of the solid for a very long time so when ram previewing the whole ram/memory gets filled up with different image cache data (this is very important!). Alternatively you could use a long video file to fill up the RAM completely.
3. import a wave file .wav 16bit 48khz uncompressed which is very long for example 5 minutes.
4. insert the wave file in the earlier created composition which contain the animated solid or video file.
5. Set the work area bar (preview range) for the whole composition.
'Ram Preview' the composition until the whole RAM/memory is filled up with image data.
AE has to stop rendering because there is no more space available in RAM.
make sure 'from current time' checkbox is off.
6. listen to the audio which stops playing randomly for about 1-2 seconds and comes back and continues playing (***BUG***)
7. Now set the right handle of the composition work area bar (preview range) to less then the maximum RAM size
(less then the green cache indicator on the right side)
8. "Purge image caches" or "Purge All"
9. Ram preview the now smaller work area
10. listen to the audio. The audio breaks are gone! (***Workaround***)
Additional information:
I have the latest After Effects CS5 update installed (10.0.1.19)
This behavior is tested with different audio drivers inside After Effects CS5 (After Effects WDM Sound, Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver, ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Driver)
I also tried different Sample Sizes Buffers (alternatively to the default 2048 samples) but without success.
Reducing the amount of RAM which After Effects can access didn't solve the problem!
System:
Win7 64bit all latest Updates, 8GB RAM, CPU: intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300, nVidia Quadro FX 2700M, IDT High Definition Audio Driver v6.10.0.6227
There is no driver problem on my system because After Effects CS3 & CS4, Premiere & Soundbooth CS3 CS4 CS5 have no audio problems!
I have lots of other professional audio software like Steinberg Cubase 5.... on the same system and they all work fine.
I also turned off AVG Anitivirus and Windows firewall for testing without success.
AdobeQT32Server.exe, dynamiclinkmanager.exe, PProHeadless.exe, afterfx.exe do not get blocked by firewall they have full permission.
The CS5 Production Premium installation went fine and without errors and antivirus protection was turned off for the installation.
Any help would be nice!

Yep, I agree with craulmedia....
It's 1 month ago after my initial post and no valuable feedback from Adobe although I filled out the bug report in addition to this post and provide my email for further information.
The only reason for upgrading from CS4 -> CS5 production suite was the use of all my 8GB RAM in AE and now AE can use it but when it's using it the audio have issues.
CS5 is on the market for nearly a year and still have such essential issues... And my fear rises there will be no valuable update fixing these issues but instead Adobe forces me to upgrade later this year to CS6 in hope something change...
I have had support request for different Adobe products in the past including telephone support, web support via Adobe ID... none with success the web support answered my request 3 weeks later with the message they will look into it... time went by and in the end the result was "Yes we know it's a known bug" the bug did not get fixed for that CS version. it even exists in the next major CS release! (talking about EncoreDVD here). Once the web support answered weeks later when I was in holidays and after some days I was not able to respond they closed my case. I reopened the case but never got an answer! Telephone support is nearly waste of time because in 95% of all cases it does not help to reinstall the whole operating system and talking to people who know less about computers in general or Adobe products then my mom - it's a waste of time.
I don't want to blame here anybody for things happend in the past I just want to point out that this time I choose an other support channel (bug report and forum post) but it seems that this support channel is also a waste of time after 1 month with no valueable feedback!
I bumped up this post 2 times and thanks to craulmedia for the third time.
And now here is my fourth time *BUMP*
All I got so far is: "I saw your bug report it's in the queue"
Is it still in the queue? which queue nr. does it have? how long will it take to get any answer? is it reproducible? Is it confirmed as a known bug by Adobe? Is Adobe working on a fix? When will this fix be available? Is the fix provided in form of an update or in the next major release?
OK, I know this is a user to user forum and Adobe people only stop by in their free time and there is no guarantee for any real support.
But it started out so good in the first time...
Last 2 things I want to add here:
1. Why should I provide my email in the bug report? Sure so Adobe can get back to me for further information... but wouldn't it be nice if Adobe would be so kind to give some status report to that given email as a small present for the enthusiastic beta testers ?
2. please Adobe take a look at www.uservoice.com already Autodesk started to move there with 3ds Max.

In I movie, load the player with your clip. Play it until the frame you want is in the viewing window. Then take a screen shot and the whole screen wil be captured and placed in the camera roll. You can then crop it down to just the picture, or portion of the picture you want.
Not elegant, but functional.

Hi brett242424,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The movie would be in your iTunes library, in the Movies application. However, if the rental period has expired, you may need to contact the iTunes Store Support about your situation:

Shuffle and continuous play

I obviously don't understand how ATV2 using Home sharing works. I have my ATV2 setup to share my iMac's iTunes Library. It shows up fine on the ATV2. What I have not been able to figure out is 2 things:
1. How do I get a the ATV2 to continuous play everything in an album? For the life of me Ican't figure it out?
2. How do I use "Shuffle" it appears to always be on (arrows are crossed?) Can you turn it off? When I select shuffle withthe remote it starts to play one song but then stops (even though are more songs in the album, genre,etc.) What am I doing wrong?
I'm feeling pretty dumb about this thing?

Got it. Ihad unchecked all the Holiday Music so it wouldn't sync to my iPhone. re-checked them and it's all good.

Multiple songs within a chapter and continuous play from chapter to chapter

Hi,
Struggling with two features: I played the tutorials at iDVD but I could not find answers to these questions.
1) trying to get the DVD to continuously play all the different chapters without hitting the play button for each one.
Want to run in continuously for a birthday party so just want it to run.
Secondly. Some chapters have lots of pictures. How do I add multiple pieces of music to each chapter?
Thanks

1) trying to get the DVD to continuously play all the different chapters without hitting the play button for each one.
You have NOT created CHAPTERS - you have created a series of separate clips (or slideshows). DVD 'Chapters' are like chapters in a book - just entry points into longer content. There is no way in iDVD to like together such separate clips.
Secondly. Some chapters have lots of pictures. How do I add multiple pieces of music to each chapter?
It sounds like you are creating slideshows - is this correct? If so I suggest you create your slideshow in iPhoto or iMovie. This will give you many more options. Apple has tutorials for both iPhoto and iMovie that explain how to do this.

You don't need to download the Windows support software, because in Snow Leopard, they are only available as a download for the Late 2010 MacBook Air.
Instead, you have to buy Mac OS X Snow Leopard. The Snow Leopard disc contains the Windows drivers for your Mac, so you have to install them after finishing the Windows installation

I recently had to get a new windows computer, old one crashed. My tech guy got all my itunes library over to the new one, and all my songs are there. However, some won't play and ask me for the password for the apple id they were purchased under. 2 of these ids are obsolete and I have no access to those accts. The songs all played on my old computer without prompting me for a password.
Any ideas how I can get around this hassle and get them all to play? We're talking about 800 songs that are being obstinate. The new computer is authorized under my "new" Apple id, which I have used for years.

Was playing game for months. Tonite, I went to play and it started me back as a new user. How do I find my player info and continue playing my origional game??

Was playing game for months, when I turned ipad on tonite and went to continue playing, it started me as a new user. My old achievements are still in game, but can only view them as the game recognizes me as a new user. How can I retrieve my player info to continue where I left off in game?

Exactly, a full backup of the previous device would contain all the app workfiles that stored the current state of the game.
I'm thinking if your kids got ahold of the iPad and decided to start with a new/fresh character, it may not be possible to go back. Given that the device is not altogether geared for multiuser usage (Apple would rather everyone got their own), many games don't support multiple users, besides those on other devices when in networked multiplayer mode.
But hopefully they will answer and set the record straight. While you wait may want to interrogate the infractors on what they specifically did so you can provide details to the maker if they need them.

I'm not sure iCloud stores everything. Even iTunes states that iCloud "Backs up the most important data..." whereas locally there will be "A full backup..."
