Always start songs at the beginning?

I sometimes use my iPod for music at parties I throw. If I have been playing it for myself, and stop it in the middle of a song, when it comes to that song during a party it starts in the middle - where I stopped it. And that just sounds stupid.
How do I make it always start at the beginning of every song?

Okay..
I was under the impression that 'Remember Playback Position' set the order in which songs were played, and since I want to preserve that, I do have it turned on.
My experience is that it does work this way, and if I don't have it turned on then the songs default to alphabetical order by title.
Am I confused here?
Is there some other option that preserves the order of the songs?
Is there some discoverable help file that explains the 'Remember Playback Position' option?
Is there some discoverable help file that explains how to control what position a song is in a playlist?
Yes, I'm asking more questions than you've answered, but this is not at all clear to me.

  • IPod touch music does not start songs from the beginning

    the songs on an ipod touch does not start from the beginning how do you fix this

    In your iTunes Library, check the songs to see if they are set to Remember playback position. If they are, turn that off and Sync the iPod with iTunes for these new changes to take effect.
    Highlight a song, right-click/Get Info/Options>Remember playback position:

  • Why do videos always start over from the beginning? A bug??

    Hi,
    I just did the update and still have the same issue where videos always start from the beginning, when I WANT them to start where they left off. I went into Settings>Video>Start Playing and selected "Where Left Off",  but that didn't help. Is this a bug?? I want it to act as it did on my 3G where I can exit the middle of a video and it will start from that point next time I enter the video... Any ideas???

    I have the same problem, not only with videos but with my playlist as well. Everything seems to restart from the beginning.

  • IPod and iTunes won't start songs at the beginning

    So I got a new computer, and I transfered all of my music and playlists over to it with and external HD. It has all of the songs back on it, but some of the songs don't start at the beginning, but if I make it rewind towards the beginning of the song, the whole song will play.
    Also, if I skip to the next song while a song is still playing, if I go back to that song it will start on the minute/second it left off. Does anyone know what I can do?
    This happens on my computer and on both my iPoda and iTouch. It is getting quite annoying and I hope someone can help me fix it!

    Somehow the "Remember playback position" setting on the Options tab has gotten a checkmark next to it.
    Usually it is only set that way for audiobooks & podcasts.
    You can right-click > Get Info on all your music tracks and go to the options tab to uncheck it. You do not have to do them one-by-one, just do a control-A or itunes menu > edit > select all.

  • Why does my iPod app keep starting over from the beginning??

    I have noticed lately that my iPod app seems to start over and play ALL songs on my phone from the beginning nearly every time I plug my phone into my car stereo.
    I plug my phone into my car stereo and listen every day on my work commute. As such, it's very important that the music stay on the same position between the times when I'm in my car. For the most part it's been fine, even on 4.0.1, unless I rebooted the phone or did a spring board respring, or otherwise killed the iPod app from the multitask app list.
    However this past week, it's been starting over from the beginning (I was playing songs from a playlist and it starts over from the beginning of ALL songs) nearly every single time I connect it to my car stereo. I have not been listening to the music between times in the car, nor have I even opened the iPod app or killed the process from the multitask bar.
    This is absolutely maddening. No changes have been made to the phone in the past couple of months, other than a few App Store app updates here and there. This just started really being a problem in the past week. What could be causing this?

    Dont have that problem but i have two tips:
    1 Other ipod/iphone apps: they are often the problem, i had an alarm clock and that blocked the whole ipod app, so check if other apps dont use songs to wake up or anything else..
    2 try to leave the ipod app trough the multitasking instead of pressing the home button?

  • I bought a movie three days ago.  It begins to download from the cloud, then my iPad goes to sleep and when I open it again, it starts downloading from the BEGINNING.  How do I get the WHOLE MOVIE to download?  I have re-booted but that didn't help.

    I can't seem to figure out how to download a movie.  It begins to download (and yes, I've checked my download speed and my bandwidth and both should, in theory, be adequate to download a movie!) but then the iPad will go to sleep and when I get back to it, it shows that I have bought the movie but nothing is downloaded.  And when I try to download the next time, nothing is saved and it starts again from the beginning of the download.
    I sat down by my iPad while I was working and every few minutes I would swipe to turn it on and it got over half of the movie downloaded.  But then I had to go to leave and now it shows nothing is downloaded.
    I can see having it take a few hours to download IF one was able to just start the download and walk away and come back later to watch the movie.  But to have to repeatedly begin from the start of the download is incredibly frustrating.  I would want my money refunded to my iTunes account at this point, if I was able to do that.  It's just not worth the hassle.
    Suggestions?  How does one download a movie from iTunes?  It should not have to be this hard!!

    See if you can redownload it.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you can then delete from your iPod if you can and redownload.
    If you can't delete from iPod, go to to iTunes>Store>Check for Available Downloads on your computer ,  amd dpwnload and sync

  • I have used firefox for 3 or 4 years, today it would not open. I had to reinstall and start over from the beginning. I lost a lot of bookmarks and preferences.

    Adobe installed an update, which restarted my desktop pc. After restarting I was unable to open Firefox browser. So, I clicked on Firefox, and then run as... first I tried running as... and chose my name. Firefox browser still would not open. Then I chose administrator which opened Firefox browser, but, as a new Firefox installation. It did contain add-ons, but not book marks, history, downloads or preferences. Now i have started over from the beginning. Is there any way I can restore lost bookmarks and preferences? Do you think system restore would help?

    Are there still JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder?

  • When i play back an mp3 dj mix i,ve burn,t to cd in my car when i turn the engine of and then restart the car the cd starts back from the beginning how do i solve this problem so that when i turn the engine on end off the cd plays from the same place

    when i play back an mp3 dj mix i,ve burn,t to cd in my car when i turn the engine of and then restart the car the cd starts back from the beginning how do i solve this problem so that when i turn the engine on end off the cd plays from the same place it did before i turned the engine off

    It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
    And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
    However.. it's not Logic related.

  • Hidden songs at the beginning of the CD

    Is there any way to import to the iPod these hidden songs at the beginning of the CD, before the first second, that some bands include in their albums?
    Thanks.

    Find a CD ripping application that will SEE these tracks. Rip them to your computer, then drop them into iTunes, then sync to iPod.
    I don't know if iTunes will SEE these "Hidden Tracks" on CDs or not. I personally only have one of these discs, I think. I think there is one or two on the "Songs In The Key Of X - X-Files Soundtrack".
    What CD do you have with these "Hidden Tracks" - I'm curious.

  • IPhone4 - Songs do not start playing at the beginning

    Hi
    I recently purchased an iPhone 4. When I play music, a lot of the tracks do not start at the beginning. I have restored the phone and upgraded to 4.3.5 but this does not help the problem. I have also uninstalled and re-installed the latest version of iTunes. Does anyone have any ideas on how to sort this out. I took the phone to the Apple store but they would not replace the phone because they said it must be a software problem... Many thanks.

    Yes, I resolved this issue. I restored my iPhone to version 4.3.5, then uninstalled iTunes and then re-installed iTunes and it worked. I think I changed the name of my device and deleted the iTunes folder before I re-installed iTunes. Hope this helps.

  • Ipod always starts halfway through the next song.

    Any time I advance to a new song on my ipod it picks up somewhere in the middle of the song. What am I doing wrong?
    Is this normal because if it is it's driving me nuts.

    This problem occurs when you transfer tags and not the actual song file to the iPod. Make sure that iTunes is pointing to the folder where the music is kept. Go to Edit>Preferences>Advance to check & select the proper location. If you click on a song and see "!" next to the song then the song has been deleted or moved from it's original location and iTunes can't find it. Keep the songs in one location with iTunes pointing to that folder.

  • Starting Songs From The Middle Of The Song

    Sometimes when listening to iTunes or my iPod, I skip a song while it is in the middle of the song. Why is it that this information is then saved so that when that song is selected next, it continues from the exact point that I skipped ahead at the last time I listened to it?
    Is there a setting so that all songs will automatically start from the beginning no matter what when they are selected?

    Ya, go to the song in iTunes, select it, do a Get Info and then under Options there is a check box for Remember Playback position. You will likely find this checked. Uncheck it and you should be all set.
    You can select multiple songs at the same time, go a Get Info, then at the bottom there is a pull down for turning this ON/OFF for the whole groups of songs. So you could select your whole library if you wanted, Get Info and then turn it off for all of them to be sure.

  • I bought a movie, the download completes, but then starts back from the beginning again using up more data, help,

    I Purchased the hobbit desolation of smaug, the download completes, but then starts from the beginning again, using up more data.

    Okay, you need to contact support definitely about what's going on. Here is a form that will send an e-mail into support for you:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    As far as the prices, the difference is likely the laptop version is the SD version and the iPad one is available in HD. That's the only reason you'll see a price difference. It has nothing to do with the device with movies/movie rentals. Apps yes, these no.

  • Ipod touch won't play songs from the beginning

    After upgrading to version 4.0.2, my ipod touch won't play music from the beginning. This happens no matter I play music in iTunes or using my ipod touch without connecting to the computer. I restarted the device and this still happens. What can I do about it? Can anyone help?

    Hello lc_llc,
    Double check each track to make sure the *Remember Playback Position* option has not been abled from under the Options tab of the track's *Get Info* window in iTunes.
