Playlist of podcasts stopping after each podcast

I manage which podcasts, and the order, I want to listen to using a playlist and until recently this worked as I wanted, i.e. when one podcast had finished playing my iPod started playing the next podcast in the playlist. Now it seems to be stopping playback after each podcast, this is very annoying.
Anyone know how I can get the iPod to not stop playback after each podcast?

No, for some reason it's not included as one of the features of the Podcast App.
If you need playlists (as many of us do), then delete the Podcast App and podcasts will return to the music app, complete with podcast playlist functionality.

Itues 11. How do you make Podcasts play continuously. Right now they stop after each selection

In iTunes 11 my podcasts stop after each selection. How do I play them continuosly as I was able to in iTunes 10?

I second this motion of shenannigans.
Upon updating to iTunes 11 I was unpleasantly surprised by the fact that my podcast smartlists no longer played continuously.
So,
Dear Apple, perhaps you want to fix the section on your website describing how to use a smartlist for continuity of podcast play, because it is not working as described http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/.
and yes, I too would like to know what's going on and how to fix it.

Ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist?

I have a problem: Suddenly, my ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist. This happens with every playlist and every track, all of which worked fine until this week. All tracks' settings are "yes" on 1) part of a compilation; 2) remember playback position and; 3) skip when shuffling. I have not updated any software or added any new content to my ipod. I imagine that some setting has been switched on or off, but I am unable to identify which one. Please help as these are my audio books! Thanks!

I have an iPod Classic (I am fairly new to the medium) and when playing music the Pod goes smoothly from one song to the next but, when listening to a book (brought in from a CD copied into iTunes) it plays one track and stops.
See below for a link on how to copy a CD into iTunes if you want an Audibook.
I have tried checking the gap less album box (what is that for by the way) but it makes no difference.
If you've heard of Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd then it's used there when you want no break between tracks. Or any DJ mixed continuos play CD. Or some classical music. Take your pick
Third question, can I make a book copied into iTunes an Audiobook? How?

Thank you!
No problem, hang around and read a few posts, there's always plenty to learn in here.

Can anyone help?

Hi Jeff,
I just checked:
There is no override on the montage

Is there a way I can watch videos/tv shows continuously without it stopping after each episode?

ITunes stops after each cut

The cuts are numbered. Options has "Part of a gapless album." But it stops after each cut and I must manually continue. This on a recent addition to Itunes, and did not previously behave this way.

Check to see if the little boxes to the left of the song titles have become unchecked. If they are not checked, you will see the kind of behavior you're seeing. Command-click in one of the boxes to check them all.
Best of luck.

Cant play tracks continuously - stops after each

Hi there - sorry, tried to do everything I could before resorting to this... I just got a new computer with Windows 7 so downloaded the latest iTunes and imported my library - all good except it stops after each track and doesn't play the next. So I uninstalled it, downloaded it again, and the same problem. Am I just being dumb and is there some setting I need to change? Thanks!

For unknown reasons, iTunes seems to have a bad habit of unchecking all the tracks when you reinstall or update. Certainly not always, but often enough that after every update there are a few people with the same problem.
Glad I was able to help.

Stop after each track?

Is it possible to set the nano so after each song is played, it stops playing and won't go to the next song unless you press play again?

Selecting a single song MAY do this already. Just make sure "repeat" is turned off. But are you talking about from within a playlist, artist or album list? I think it will automatically advance to the next song.
Edited: I just tested it. The single song trick works only if there is one song from an album or artist. If the artist or album has more than one song on your iPod, this may not work.

Playback stopping after each song

Everytime I try and play a playlist, or album from the library, the songs do not continuously play. After each song I have to restart the next song. They all play fine, they just no longer continuously play. Did I hit a button or something that I shouldn't have? I have looked all over trying to find the answer to this one, but could find no topic that addressed this.
TIA

Are there check marks beside all the songs in the playlist/library? Unchecked songs have to be clicked on individually to play them, checked songs will play one after the other. If you hold down the CRTL key and click beside any song in your list then all the check boxes can be toggled on or off: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows

Stopping after each song has finished

Is it possible to set up the iPod shuffle so that when a song has finished playing it stops/pauses. Instead of continuing to the next song?

Haven't tried it on a shuffle, but here is an idea.
In iTunes, set up a playlist of the stuff you want on the shuffle. Now UNCHECK all the boxes in front of those songs. Also select all then do a get info and check the box to "skip when shuffling". I am not sure if that setting will effect how the songs play on the shuffle or not, but worth a try. If the shuffle does use that setting, then when you play a track, it should stop after that track since all the songs on the shuffle are unchecked and will be skipped.

Creative Muvo stops after each song

My creative muvo has begun to stop play after each song. You have to scroll to the next song manually. Has anyone had this problem? (The battery is fully charged)

If the Play Mode is set to normal then that shouldn't happen. Could be a problem with the files on the unit, you could try formatting it and then transfer some new tracks over (rip them from CD for example). It might help aswell to update the firmware.
You didn't mention which MuVo it is exactly, but if there is a firmware update available for it, it'll be in the Downloads section (Support > Downloads).

Stop after each song

I have an older iPod and I can make it play one song in a Playlist and then stop, manually starting the next. I just got an iPod Touch and the same trick (skip when shuffling) doesn't work on it. How can I make it play a song and stop?

If you're really determined to do that, set each song in the Playlist to Skip when shuffling and then play the Playlist in song shuffle mode. Because every other song in the list is set to skip when shuffle is used, there would be no other songs, in the list, to be played.
However, a word of caution;
you set Skip when shuffling in your iTunes Library, so set each song (highlight the song and select File/Get Info/Info/Options>Skip when shuffling and then connect the iPod to iTunes so it can Sync (synchronise) the changes. If you cannot see the File menu, right-click each song to see the context menu.
once set to Skip when shuffling, it will apply whenever the iPod is in shuffle mode. Those songs will not play in shuffle mode.
if you use Manually Manage, instead of Sync, then you will need to remove each song from the iPod, make the changes in your iTunes Library and then put the song back onto the iPod.

Playlist stops after each song or podcast

I have podcasts on a playlist, and for some reason, sometimes it only plays one song or podcast, then doesn't go to the next one. I have to go back and click on the next one to play it.

Are there check marks beside all the items in the playlist? Unchecked items have to be clicked on individually to play them, checked items will play one after the other. If you hold down the CRTL key and click beside any song in your list then all the check boxes can be toggled on or off: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows

Podcasts stop after each track

Hi,
How do I make each podcast play after another? At the moment one will play then stop, and another will not play.
Thanks

Yes. I think a Smart Playlist would be your best bet. You could probably base it on Album name and then it would add new podcasts as you download them. (That's if you want to create the list to hold a specific podcast and not all podcasts in your library.)

Movie playlist stop after each movie

Hi all
I thought I'd use our iPad as in-car entertainment for our daughter (2y 7m) but found that the iPod app does some rather unexpected things. After playing an episode - I'm using to play TV episodes - it stops and shows a page with thumbnail of movie.
Only button is for Movies page, but going there is not what i want and then there are no buttons on that page either,
How do I get a playlist of movies to playz with stopping at end of each.
Cheers
C

One way is to assign a track number to each related video via iTunes and then resync the iPad to the computer.
