Ipod stops playing after each playlist

When I start a playlist and play it through it stops at the end then I have to choose another playlist, is this supposed to happen? I would like it to go on to the next playlist and continue to play until I stop it.
Thanks RBHCSWFM

There's no way that I am aware of, I have looked around but can find no reference to it. You can try the document search and see if you have more luck than I did: Search Apple Support

  • Ipod stops playing after each podcast

    When I play music, each song plays one after the other like you expect. When I play my podcasts after each one the ipod stops and goes back to menu screen. How do I get it to play the podcasts one after the other like songs? Is this a setup item I missed? Thanks for any help.

    The iPod does not use folders like you do in Windows or Mac OS. They are invisible to the user.
    You are not explaining yourself very well or you have never used an iPod.
    I don't understand how using folders will make it easier than it already is.
    If everything is in folders and you do not use playlists, then you have to move everything around into folders to listen to specific music.
    I never said playlists were cumbersome but they are sometimes ineffective. Some times you don't want a certain rating or a certain grouping but maybe you just want to listen to one album in order or one podcast.
    So select that album or that one podcast and press play.
    It's much easier to find that podcast or album by name then it is to scroll through thousands of entries to find the starting title of the group.
    Why don't you do it this way now?
    I go to
    Music -> Albums -> pick one and play
    Music -> Podcasts -> pick one and play
    That's what the problem was last week I would go to artists choose the artist then the album and then it would play one song and skip to the top menu.
    That seems to have been a glitch.
    I go to Music -> Artist -> Album and press play. It plays the entire album with all the songs in album in order.
    It did it for every album and every song I chose every day of the trip a couple weeks ago and yes they all have there check boxes selected in iTunes.
    The check box is used only if you want to use Update only checked songs in iTunes prefs -> iPod. Once the songs are on the iPod, this option has nothing to do with th eiPod.

  • Smart Playlists Stop Playing After Each Track

    After updating iTunes to version 10.0.1.22 my smart playlists stop playing after each track. All songs or Podcasts in my smart playlists are checked so they should be playing consecutively but they're not.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Make sure the little boxes to the left of the song names are checked. If you need to check all the songs in a single view at once, hold the CTRL key and check any one of the boxes.

  • ITunes Match Music Stops playing after each song- Even when on Shuffle

    It doesn't matter if I'm on 3G or on WIFI the songs that are streaming through my iTunes Match account on my iPhone / iPad stop playing after a single song. Sometime it will take a few songs before it stops playing, but it ALWAYS stops. I have to constantly go onto my iOS device and press PLAY again to get the music to start again. It's not a data issue as I have a consistant 30MB down when i'm on WIFI and my 3G connection is always over 10MB down when the freezes occur.
    It's a pain in the rear having to press play every few songs as i'm paying for a service I expect to work, and clearly streaming a single song and then stopping is not working in my book.
    I'm running the latest versions of iOS and I've tried a complete system restore.
    I also notice that occasionally when a certain song comes on, it will cycle through and skip 20+30 songs extremely rapidly so I can see the song title on my iPhone but it doesn't play any of the songs inbetween. There are also of course many song's that won't even play at all.
    Any ideas?

    I am having the sames issues.  I was on the phone with Apple over the weekend.  I was told they would report it to their engineers.  It would seem this problem occurred  first in May and June and was resolved from what I have read this morning in past discussions, yet seems to be reoccurring again as of this weekend.

  • Ipod stops playing after 7 minutes

    I have downloaded a couple of talking books from iTunes onto my ipod nano. It stops playing the book after 7 minutes, no matter which book I select. Any ideas ?

    Does this happen when you play these same tracks in iTunes?

  • Stop play after each song

    Is there a setting that will automatically stop ITunes from playing the next song? I am working with a woman with a disability who wants to be a DJ. She speakes using a communication device and needs time to talk before the song starts. She moves slowly and the next song starts before she can stop it. Thanks.

  • IPod stops playing when using Safari

    Ever since I updated to 1.1.2, everytime I'm listening to the iPod and open Safari to surf, the iPod stops playing after about a minute or two. The song isn't over, and its not at the end of the playlist. The music doesn't fade out either, like its receiving a call or email. Just straight up cuts out. I tried restarting the phone, which helped the first time, but now it starting doing it again. I've searched for answers elsewhere, to no avail. Thanks!

    I had heard about this for quite awhile, but never experienced it. Then the other day I was sitting outside an Apple Store, listening to some music and decided to take advantage of the free wifi for a moment. Suddenly every song would stop everytime a page loaded or a I used the back button. Totally reproduceable.
    I held down the start/off button and turned off my iPhone, waited a few seconds, turned it back on, and the problem went away -- at least for the time beling.
    Sorry I don't know a permament solution, but that did work for me.

  • Why does my ipod classic stop playing after a few songs?

    why does my ipod classic stop playing after just a few songs?

    is your battery charged?  How many songs do you have on the playlist (if you are playing a  playlist when it stops)?   I know that when the earbud wires are accidentally disconnected from the ipod body, the music stops automatically.

  • My iPod shuffle stops playing after a few songs, then it won't start again.

    My iPod shuffle will stop playing after a few songs which is very frustrating while out walking.  I end up having to shut it off for about a minute or two and then turn it back on.  Sometimes it will start playing again, but it will start playing the same songs over again.  I can't go forward or go back.  When I try to skip a song, all I get is dead air.  I took it back to an Apple store and they replaced it free of charge; which I thought was great... that is until the new iPod started doing the exact same thing.  I've downloaded songs from the iTunes store as well as songs off of my personal CD's.  I've tried deleting all the songs and re-installing them... nothing seems to solve this problem.  I know it only costs $50; but if Apple can't get a $50 item to work; why in the world would I want to invest more money in an Apple product?  It's a good thing this was a gift.... I'm just not happy with this product and there doesn't seem to be a good explanation for this.

    I Just ran into the same issue:
    My iPod shuffle 4th gen would just stop playing, and I had to turn it off, wait 10 secs and the turn it back on.
    Then it would get stuck at the same place.
    I Even exchanged the iPod for a new one since I had just bought it.
    re-synced my playlist and same issue!
    did a restore as described above - same issue.
    Solution in my case:
    one of the songs in my playlist seems was "corrupt". Even trying to play the song in iTunes on the PC did not work, kept getting the message "This computer is not authorized ....", even though the computer is authorized.
    So somehow that song being on the shuffle crashes it.
    After I removed that song from the playlist and synced again, the problem was resolved!
    So try to play all the songs that you want to sync to your shuffle on your computer, maybe you have one song that was not downloaded properly or is otherwise corrupt.
    - Deleted the song from the local library
    - re-downloaded the song from iTunes store
    - now it was playing fine on the PC in iTunes
    - re-added it to the playlist, re-synced iPod shuffle
    all is working fine now, shuffle no longer freezes.
    hope that helps someone else....

  • How can I make the ipod stop itself after playing one song?

    When playing a song, are the controls at the top of the screen there? (Genius, Shuffle, Loop?)
    If not, tap the center of the page once to expose them
    now keep tapping the circle on the left part of the exposed controls untill a one (1) appears...

    The "Tools" are in the old drop down menu, which are not shown by default in the new Firefox Design. To show this menu:

    On the bottom left there will be Show/Hide Toolbars. The Menu will be listed here.

  • Some songs stop playing after minute 1

    I recently purchased some songs from iTunes and the majority of them have this issue, they stop playing after minute 1 or 1:30.

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.
    BTW the tracks that cut short, did you preview each of those for the full minute or minute 30? There's a bit of me that thinks the previews and the short downloads might be related to each other.

  • Why does my iTunes stop playing after a certain amount of time?

    When I begin a Playlist in iTunes on my 2009, 24 in. display iMac, it will suddenly stop playing after a few songs. I have looked through
    every setting I can locate, but am unable to correct this problem. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    On the webite for the station. look for a Listen link for another type of player.  Many stations are going away from streams that iTunes can link to.  while you're on the website. look for a Contact Us llink and report your trouble.   They might not be aware there is trouble.
    Do a Get Info, go to first tab and Edit URL.. Copy and paste the stream URL here so others can test it.
