Are you sure it's actually shuffling the songs (i.e. the list of songs play in a different order each time through the list)?
You may need to re-order this playlist in iTunes as resync it to your device.

How can I get the songs in my playlists to play in the order listed?

I have an iPod touch gen. 4 that I got two months ago. According to iTunes, the firmware is up to date. I have created many playlists, and I always start playing songs at the top of the list. However, the next song it plays (after the first one) is never the second song in the list. I created my playlists using iTunes.

Thanks!
At first I didn't understand your reply; I didn't know about the additional audio controls (that are hidden by default) or that there was a Shuffle icon in them. I had only seen the Shuffle choice at the top of the playlist. I think shuffle must have been turned on by default; I didn't turn it on. I found that it's not necessary to turn on Repeat in the Now Playing screen to turn off shuffling, though.
So if other readers have this problem, do this:
Play a song in your playlist.
Tap the display once in the Now Playing screen (it's either the album artwork or the default graphic) to display the additional audio controls.
Tap the the Shuffle icon on the right if it's blue (indicating shuffle is turned on). It will turn gray (indicating shuffle is turned off).
Your playlist will now play in order.

How do you get the songs to continue to only play once then go to the next one?

My iPod nano, 6th generation, will not move automatically from one song to the next. I listen to a song then have to manualy move to next song. How can I correct it?

Sounds like you have single repeat turned on. Go to the "Now Playing" screen, swipe right to left to get to the second pane. There are three icons, the first one is the repeat button. Look at it, it probably has a little 1 on it. Tap it till it is off or just shows the repeat icon without the 1.

I ordered several downloads on iTunes and one of the song says I authorized on 5 computers and that is false. How do you get the song to play?

iTunes
How do you get a download to play if the song says you have downloaded it on 5 computers? I don't even own 5 computers. This is my first expierience with iTunes dowloads.

How do I get the songs on my mac to play through my home audio receiver , USING THE MAC?

The sales person at the apple store told me Apple TV would do that wirelessly. While I can play the songs on my computer through my home theater by using the screen on the TV that Apple TV creates, I want to be able to just go to my mac, select my playlists and have those songs play through my home audio. I don't want to go through the whole Apple TV nonsense....
Did I buy the wrong device?

No you bought the correct device
In iTunes you should see an AirPlay icon in the lower right hand side of the window (a box with a triangle in it).
Click on the AirPlay icon and you should see the Apple TV listed in the drop down list. You should have the option to play music to the Computer, your Apple TV and Multiple Speakers (i.e.you can play to Compouter & Apple TV at the same time). Select the Apple TV, the Apple TV should then turn on and your music will then play to it without the need to turn on the actual TV screen (might take a few secs for the Apple TV to wake up and fr playbask streaming to start, give it a chance to start up).
You just use iTunes in the normal way, playing what ever music you want, the output now goes to the Apple TV instead of the Computer.

How can I get the songs on my iPhone to play since updating to iOS 5.1.1?

Hi guys,
I have an iPhone 3Gs and I've imported CD's into iTunes on my mac mini and synced it with my iPhone. Since I installed the latest iOS on my iPhone, some of the songs don't play all the way through, they skip to the next song. I listened to the songs in my iTunes library and each song plays through. Last night I tried to resolve the issue by removing the songs from my iPhone, syncing it again and adding the songs but it didn't work.
Can anyone tell me what steps I need to take to resolve this issue?
Thanks Guys :-)

Anybody?

My generation 6 Ipod nano will not let me download songs from my library to my playlist if they are on the cloud. How do i get the songs on my playlist?

My generation 6 IPOD Nano will not let me put songs on my playlist from the library. A message comes up saying it has to be downloaded from the cloud. I do I bypass this?

If the songs are not in your iTunes library, download them as indicated here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519. Then sync them to your iPod.

TS4337 How do you stop the incessant error message when calendar can't update or delete an event on my Exchange, even though I have hit every option and even deleted the exchange and the calendars. I'm ready to never use the computer again with the const

Calendar is incessantly posting error messages that it cannot change or delete an event on my Exchange calendar. I have tried the "revert to server, try again, and ignore" more times than I can count. I even deleted the exchange from my connection and reinstalled without help. Even when I have deleted the Exchange, it continues to have this error window every 60 seconds. I am ready to stop using the computer just for the stress of it. Any suggestions or help before this screen winds up with a shoe in it?

To prevent Firefox from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
In the search box, type or paste '''formf''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
Scroll down to '''browser.formfill.enable''' and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
''The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.''

How do I get the songs to inport in the correct order

How Do I get the songs to import in t he correct order?

Songs do import in the correct order, usually. So this must be something else that's causing you an issue.
Which list of these fresh imports, are you looking at, that shows them in the wrong order?
For instance, if you look in the Recently Added Playlist, the "most recently added" will be the last song on an album, so the songs on the album will be listed in reverse order.
If you look at an album in the album list on your iPod, the songs should be in the correct order. If not, check in your iTunes Library that the songs have the correct track number listed and they all show the total number of tracks on that album.

How do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on?

Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
If it's a Mac, try Senuti or Music Rescue.

I recently purchased a new computer and just downloaded itunes. I have an old iphone that has over 1,000 songs that I want to put on itunes. How do I get the songs on my iphone onto itunes?

Help! I just bought a new computer and am trying to get the songs from my iphone to itunes on the computer. My old computer that had all of origional songs on itunes crashed so all I have is my old iphone. How do I get the songs to go into my itunes library. I would like to purchase a new iphone and plan to load the songs on it after I can figure this out? Please Help?

Restore them to the new computer using the bakcup of the old one. If you don't have a backup of the old computer, you can re-download music purchased from the iTunes store. If they were imported from CD's, etc. You will either have to re-rip them or purchase third party software to extract them from the phone. The iPhone is not a backup or data transfer device.

HT1329 How can I get the songs on my iPod onto my new iTunes library?

I have an iPod that was synced to another iTunes library on another PC. The PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro but it keeps saying the iPod is synced w/ another iTunes library. How can I get the songs on my iPod on the new iTunes library?

Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

I made 2 playlists on Itunes and put them on my Ipod. How do I get the songs to play consecutively and not keep playing the same song over and over again???

I'm a new Zumba instructor and have to come up with playlists for my routines. I made 2 playlists on ITunes and put them on my Ipod. Everytime I want to play it, only one song from the list plays over and over. The other songs do not. How do I get the songs to play the way I have them set up??

You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other music you need to get them from where you got them before.

Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
