Mouse buttons no longer work for iTunes playback (play/pause, next, previous) after update! Help please!

Mouse buttons no longer work for iTunes playback (play/pause, next, previous) after update! Help please!

When you say "mouse button", do you mean clicking on the controls in the upper left of the iTunes window or do you mean that you have special media keys on your mouse?

    Yes, I did try with Xperia Z3 and it works fine for me. If you have tried safe mode, you should perhaps try a software repair on your phone via PC Companion to see if this can help:

    In PC Companion you press start on Support Zone > Start on Update the phone/tablet software > Repair phone/tablet (the blue clickable link in the message) > Follow these steps without having your device connected to the PC.
    Follow the instruction that appears in the program and do not connect your device until this guide tells you how to connect it.

  • Play/pause mouse button no longer works since update?

    I have a mouse with several buttons, one of which I customized to be "Play/Pause". This was great for iTunes -- if I was in Firefox or something, I could click it and immediately play/pause the song.
    However, with the new version of iTunes, this button no longer works, neither outside of iTunes nor inside. The button still works with other programs that it used to (eg, VLC), so it's specific to iTunes.
    My hopes aren't high, but is there any chance of solving this?

    Hi, Piafromvic. This forum is about using apple's new iBooks Author software to create books. There's a separate forum for help with the ibooks app for reading books and you might get more answers there:

  • After installing WMP the media buttons dont work for iTunes(back/play/for and backward)-sound control

    hello, since i got my computer, i've been using  iTunes.
    i was happy, media keys working perfectly and all, but 1 month ago, i had to install WMP to run a diferent format that itunes dont support and after that day, my media keys stop working for itunes, first i think it war my keyboard(microsoft laser 5000) and a software conflict.
    but now i buy a razer blackwidow ultimate(yesterday) and still dont working...
    i spend all my weekend trying to figure out whats the problem, but i dont know.
    i tried tutorials for similar problems, but noting worked...
    and now the media keys arent working even on WMP
    I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!

    Hi Josh
    Thanks for this useful information and for the report about your experience.

    This option provides details about the single drivers and tools. For Toshiba Value Added Package I found this:

  • Play/Pause/Next/Previous functionality doesn't work using keyboard/remote

    I have recently upgraded my 24'' iMac to a 27'' i5 iMac and migrated my information via the Migration Assistant using a gigabit peer-to-peer (crossover cable) ethernet connection. Since then or shortly after the play, pause, next and forward buttons on the keyboard stopped working (or they never worked, I am unsure).
    Moreover, the same functionalities when accessed using the Apple remote also does not work, note that the volume up and down buttons do work from the Apple remote.
    I am also having difficulty getting my digital camera identified using the USB interface but that is another show. The camera is not even seen by the Image Capture tool in the Utilities, note that I succeeded once in getting it identified but not since then. The only change I can remember was installing the MouseWizard tool for extending gestures of the magical mouse, which is probably the finest thing I have got from the whole upgrade (the most easily appreciable). Please ignore the matter of my digital camera, for me mentioning it only for the slight possibility that it may be connected. To this humble users they are two things that are not working at all. Some of the applications I have installed is Parallels Desktop 4.0, which seems to identify the camera once connected but not the Mac OS X system.
    Thanks in advance for your generous help.

    Today I made a brave international call to Apple in the USA, realising that less than 90 days has passed since I purchased my new iMac. The phone call lasted for 62 minutes and was utterly embarrassing and genuinely awkward for me as it was totally unhelpful and very, very costly. The guy on the other side was very unable to provide any meaningful help and it was not easy for me to tell him that he was not, so I had to go on with the costly call which was mostly filled with moments of silence and contemplation (and forgetting -for the thousandth time, that my keyboard is wireless, telling me one time after the other to try to unplug it from the USB and connect it again).
    Anyway, I am delighted to have discovered the problem myself, which is amazingly simple, and unbelievably responsible of both of the two (seemingly unconnected) problems I was having (the problem with the functional keys on the keyboard and the identification of my digital camera).
    The problem was simply solved by deleting a textual file from the root of the home folder which is the file called ".CFUserTextEncoding". I have no idea what this textual file stores (a string of the form "X:XX") and how could the four bytes in it be of so much annoyance in my case, but deleting it can bring the media control keys back to life and make the digital camera identify effortlessly. Quite puzzling I would say.

    This may seem obvious, but presumably you have authorized the MacBook Air in iTunes?

  • Mouse button no longer works

    I just reinstalled my 10.7.5 operating system on my star up disk. All went perfectly except now when I press the the little scroll button in the middle of the mouse it no longer invokes Mission Control as it has before I did the system reinstall. I botted from  the back up (back up done before the system reinstall) of my start up disk & it works as properly. Both my startup & its back up are configured as shown in pics below. Any ideas?

    Also, how do I choose between CDE and GNOME from only
    keyboard (modify some files, etc) in case my mouse
    does not even work any more?You should be able to navigate in the dtgreet login screen with the keyboard.
    Shift-tab, arrows, and spacebar should get you to the menu to choose your login environment.

  • Volume control buttons don't work for iTunes in speaker mode

    Using onboard speakers (no headset on my iPhone 4S, the speaker buttons are not working.  In fact the slider ICON in missing in playing music as well as the ringer ICON that comes up when I press the buttons.
    I can go into settings, Sounds and manually move the slider for Ringer and Alerts, with "Change with Buttons" set "on, I can then press the volumn buttons on the side and see the slider move up and down (right and left).  But as soon as I leave that screen and press either volumn up or down on the side, the Ringer ICON comes up but the slider part is gone.
    In this case, there is no sound out of the speakers.  However "Siri" works fine.
    And in phone mode, I can use speakerphone and hear audio out of the speakers.  (In fact in phone mode, speakers or headset works fine).
    All other apps the speakers are inop and the volum control buttons are inop.
    It's like it's in perminent "mute".

    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3938840?start=0&tstart=0
    I got out my air compressor and literally blew the S* out of the docking port.  I did dock the iPhone to my car dock port as a test, played music through the car.  Then undocked and the volume control and speaker sounds all restored.
    Not 100% it was cleaning the docking port or that I unwedged the software by docking into some different device.

  • Using apple keyboard's default keys (play/pause, next, previous song) with iTunes on windows 7

    Hi,
    I'm using my apple keyboard (wired with numpad) connected to a windows 7 machine. I'd like to know if there is any way for the default iTunes keys (previous song, play/pause song and next song) to work on windows? It's very annoying to constantly alt tab to iTunes and use the arrow keys and spacebar... Also, can I link the mute, lower and higher sound buttons to the audio output?
    Thanks in advance!!

    I have this same problem, but with Windows XP Pro. It MUST be a iTunes and a Microsoft IntelliType driver issue.
    I JUST reinstalled my computer and loaded all new everything and the buttons worked off and on (depending on focus). I don't remember doing anything to make it work last time. The only thing I remember was installing a plug-in so my ATI Remote Wonder worked with iTunes.
    I downloaded Chris's dll as suggested. Worked flawlessly. I hope Apple and/or Microsoft fix this in the next release of their software.

  • The macbook pro keyboard media buttons doesn't work for itunes

    hi,
    since i installed the snow leopard the buttons doesn't control (play, stop, forward...) the itunes.

    Hey ARM77,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    There is a few things I will suggest to hopefully fix this issue for you.
    1. Is mass storage mode currently enabled when you hook your BlackBerry to the Mac?  If not please read KB13564.
    2. Is your iTunes updated to the very latest version?
    3. Verify that your media card has a sufficient amount of memory available for the playlists. To check this, perform the following:
    In BlackBerry® Desktop Manager, click Device Options. On the Media tab, decrease the amount of memory that is kept free for files other than your music files.
    than your music files.

  • Remote Control OK button no longer works for program information

    We used to have a home media DVR and when watching a show I could hit the OK button to see it's information at the bottom.  We just switched to a HD DVR instead of the Home Media DVR since we don't need it any longer.   I was able to set it up w/out any issues, but now when I hit OK nothing happens.  I played in the settings menu, but didnt see anything regarding this.  Does anyone know how to set this up?
    Thank you!
    Sonya

    Thanks for the advice but I've tried resetting network settings and also the reset by pressing home and sleep buttons until getting the Apple logo. Still have the same problem. To be clear (because I mistakenly typed black instead of blank in the title to this thread): If I press the phone button I get a BLANK WHITE screen for a few seconds then it goes back to the home screen. I doubt it's the SIM card as I can receive calls and make them directly from contacts. What I can't do is view my favourite numbers or missed calls or access my voicemail, i.e. all the things you get to via pressing the phone button.

  • Rotation lock button no longer works for iBooks

    I just uploaded the new iOS4 to my iPad and then tried to read a book on iBooks while lying on my side. Apparently, the old rotation lock switch on the upper right side is now a mute switch. Have I lost the ability to prevent rotation of the screen?

    I'm having the same problem and tried double clicking on the home key twice. There are no button on the left of the screen.

  • Left mouse button does not work after last upgrade on one computer.

    Second request -- left mouse button no longer works after latest upgrade. Uninstalled and reinstalled - did not help. Only affected my office computer. Left button works on other three search engines and other programs -- need suggestions...

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    logitech M570 mouse
    my mouse back and forward buttons no longer work in v29. i tried FF safe mode, i tried with logitech setpoint 6.5 enabled and disabled, resetting setpoint. i don't want to "reset firefox" because i just did a fresh windows install and fresh firefox 28 install before upgrading to FF29 a few days later.....
    BTW the back/forward buttons work in all other installed programs as well as FF28 in my windows 7 machine.
    thanks in advance for any replies....

    apologies for another reply. also, the back/forward icons (to the left of the URL area) work just fine. it's only the mouse buttons that don't work and after years of using them, i REALLY miss them!
    thanks
