When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

Max OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1
I had a similar problem: I wanted to synch my playlist to my iphone. I like to have my playlist sorted by genre. But under each genre, albums are not sorted by the track numbers. This is a problem, especially when I am listening to club mixes when the DJ smoothly transitions from 1 track sequentially to the next one. Under the properties of each audio file, the Track Numbers and Disc Numbers are already there.
My perfect solution was to turn On Sorting - Sort Album under View>Show View Options. Then, select all the songs in that album (Shift click, Cmd click, etc) , and Edit multiple item information (Cmd I). You will see Info-Video-Sorting-Options buttons. Click on Sorting. Then, under Sort Album, Enter the name of the album. Then OK.
You should now have the playlist sorted by Genre, then each album individually sorted by track numbers. On your playlist you should see, if you scroll right, the column added called "Sort Album".
Hope this helps.

Scanner moves and then moves back to start and turns my printer off.

When turning on my printer, the scanner moves and then moves back to start and turns my printer off. I can not turn my printer back on unless I unplug it and plug it back in. Then it just does the same thing again and again and again.

Hello @LuvInCayer , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I see you're having power issues. I would like to help!
I'd recommend starting with a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would also recommend plugging the printer power into a different wall outlet.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

If you have two iphone 4s on the same Itunes account how can you keep seperate info on each phone i.e contacts and apps etx

My wife and I have Iphone 4s phones, and the same itunes account on two laptops, when she started her phone for the first time all my contacts were deleted how can we have seperate details on each phone, or do we need seperate accounts

Thanks for the help. Took a bit of time and I'll need her phone (when she's back) to get it all straight...I think! :-)

When you reduce opacity of a top layer how do you keep a bottom layer from shining through?

I have two objects intersecting each other on different layers. The object on the top layer I reduced the opacity for and the bottom layer which was previously hidden now is shining through. I do not want this to happen. I want the bottom layer to remain hidden beneath the top layer despite the lowered opacity. How would I accompish this simply? I have CS2.
Thanks for any help with this...

Thanks Trex,
Yes! This works very well, amazingly great advice. One side note you might be able to use for future reference: the object on the bottom layer assumes a slightly different hue than the object on the top layer even when I adjust the opacity to the exact same level (both objects were the same color to begin with). I discovered this was because colors show up slightly different whether the background is white or a background with no color. So I simply created one more layer and placed a white colored object and placed this layer below my bottom layer object. This then matched the colors of both the intersecting objects.
Anyways, you probably already knew this, can be confusing to explain all of this in words.
Thanks a lot for your help, this saved me many minutes of frustration.

How do you keep QuickTime Player 7 from crashing when opening movie files

When I try to open a bunch of small Quicktime files at the same time, it crashes with the report below.

When I do this with Safe Mode, it doesn't crash. I'm guessing I need to some how make it so Quicktime uses more of the RAM, I got 16 Gigs, or use less CPU. Activity Monitor shows 87% CPU usage just before the crash. This is a one month old iMac, while on my old one from 2008 with just 4 GB RAM, it didn't crash.

Thanks to QuickTimeKirk on another post, I got the answer. You use qtl (Quicktime Media LInk) files to point to the real .mov files. Then the qtl file will download when linked to on a web page. After the instant download, Quicktime player will open and grab the stream. Even on a PC! Great!

How do you keep in image/photo from sliding throughout a movie on iMovie?

I'm creating an audio movie using a picture as a background, but there is one problem. As soon as I hit play, the song begins to play while the picture slowly starts moving in any direction.
How do I keep the image from moving, rather staying motionless as in Windows Movie Maker. I tried turning off the Ken Crops effect to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Select the photo. Click on the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. Instead of Ken Burns, choose FIT or CROP. Fit will letterbox, Crop will fill the screen by cutting of the edges.
You can also go into Project Properties and set the default action to Fit or Crop instead of Ken Burns. Then any additional photos you add will be imported the way you want them.

How do you keep display only fields from being inserted into tables?

Morning I have a problem where I am displaying a couple fields on a screen and they are tring to insert in to a table.
I am running Apex 4.1 on 11Gr2, i am building a set of screens, on the first one the user inputs a subject ID, that branchs to a second screen that uses the subject id to do a lookup for a couple fields for display. there are a couple field the user feels in and a row is inserted in to a differnet table. But Apex is tring to insert the lookup fields in to the second table when I really only need the subject ID.
How can I tell Apex which fields to use in the insert and which not to try to uses. I see in the debug it is getting all the screen fields in the inserty statement.
Thanks

In the insert process, take the cols out which you don't want to insert, say,
insert into tbl (col1, col2, ....) value (p1, p2, ...)
=>
insert into tbl (col1, col5, ....) values (p1, p5, ...)

How do you keep documents in finder from rearranging themselves?

Everytime I click on finder all of my documents say that they are sorted but they are in no order at all. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please respond.

Folder metadata is stored in an invisible file named ".DS_Store" and it will usually store the way you've organized data in a given folder. I'm not quite able to visualize what you're writing about? Can you post a screenshot (http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4391)?

How do I turn off the default radio in my music app. I cannot play my playlist until it first defaults to radio and then I have to start all over. this is very tedious!!!

This got me curious when I first saw it... It does indeed seem very Un-Apple-like (at least historically) to prevent a user from customizing their own device - Mac or iDevice - but today I'm unsure. I cannot grasp how a UX designer could leave a simple "OFF" switch out of the control panel. Another thing that Music Data Streaming does is eat up your Data Plan.
This May not be the exact issue as you describe, but seems to solve an issue of a Radio Playlist in iTunes resuming where it left off from the last use...

Re: How do you turn off i tunes radio on the ipad air once it starts playing songs? in response to Betty91545
Play last song on list, songs will then stop. Works for me on iPad. Haven't tried yet on iPhone.
It is likely that THIS may be part of the real reason to push the iTunes Radio feature - revenue stream (nobody remembers "Payola?"):
Apple is more beholden to the shareholders than in the old days

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

TS3297 I bought an album, two of the twelve songs play about half the way through, then stop, and then the next song in line starts playing. How do I get the songs downloaded so they play to the end?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Itunes match how do you to select multiple songs or do you click each one

In ITunes match how do you to select multiple songs to download to pc or do you have to click each one.

First make sure you have the current version of iTunes, which is actually 10.5.1. I had to manually download it from apples website, for some reason, it wouldnt auto-update.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Once that is complete, go to the iTunes store. In the Quick Links secion to the right, you should see iTunes Match. This will prompt you to activate your subscription to iTunes match. After that it should ask you to add your computer and once youve done that, it should begin the process of scanning your library and adding it to the cloud
Alternatively, once you activate your subscription, you can also go to the Store dropdown menu in iTunes and select Turn On iTunes Match.

How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app? When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.
