Apple TV remote skips music tracks when navigating menu

I've just set up my Apple TV and paired it to my Macbook through home-sharing. However, when I'm navigating the main menu (using the Apple TV remote), it will pause/skip/go back on the music tracks that are playing, as well as moving between menu items. Is there any way to keep the same track playing without skipping it every time you click the remote?
I have set up the remote app on my phone which doesnt seem to suffer the same issue but I'd like to use the tv remote if possible.
Thanks

Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy. Click Advanced in the lower right. Click "Disable remote control infrared receiver."

  • Why does form validation take effect when navigating menu items?

    I am using JDev 10.1.3.3.
    I have a data entry form where all the af:inputField's are set to Required=true. I expected that the mandatory fields should only be enforced if I click the form 's submit button.
    However, when I navigate to another menu item from my menu bar without filling in the fields, the mandatory fields also get enforced (e.g. Required Messages on fields appear and I am forced to have to enter some data on the field before I am able to navigate to another menu item. ) Navigating menu items should imply I am not proceeding with the data entry and should allow me to navigate instantly, even if there are blank fields.
    I notice the SRDemo also had this same behavior. Under "New Service Request", if you don't fill in a description and navigate to another menu item from the menu bar, it will complain and ask you to enter a problem description before switching tabs.
    This is obviosly not the intended behavior. How do I change this behavior so that when I switch menu items, data validation will not take place?

    Hi
    it happens cause the entire page is one form when you try to navigate out what it does is that it submits the form.
    To avoid validation for particular links or buttons set their property immediate to "true"
    hope this helps

  • Apple has since SHORTENED music tracks by 75% content?!

    Hey Apple,
    The album "House This? Tastefully composed by KneeDeep" has at least one track cut short from 7 minutes to just 2:30 mins:seconds. It is "Crash (Lovebirds Remix)" track #12.
    I bought this track two years ago and it is in my iPod and it is about 7 mins long. Now on iTunes it is 2 mins 30 seconds.
    Can you fix this so that I can download it to my iPhone? I cannot resolve the iTunes library since I lost the original computer I used to have my iTunes library, but that's a different question.
    Also the "I Got A Hold On You Soul" track (#3) is cut short to 2:30 from its 5+ min time.
    Is this cutting artists music deliberate to save storage space? Do you choose the tracks at random or by number of downloads?
    Or is this "an honest mistake"? Both tracks appear to have been cut to the same length of 2 mins 30 seconds.

    Okay, I compared the track listing of this album on iTunes to a well-known music distribution service and it seems that there is storage corruption.
    Crash (Lovebirds Remix) by Milton Jackson is track 11 and its length is 7:42.
    Track #3 is The Night by Lovebirds, which appears as track #4 in iTunes.
    Don't know where iTunes listed track #3 "I got a hold on your soul" came from.
    The sad part is that "Crash (Lovebirds Remix)" is one of the coolest tracks in House.
    If Apple is roaming these listsing (accidentally or whatever) could you please fix this?
    (I know you're preparing for iPhone 5..., but perhaps you could find a little time?)
    P.S. Interestingly enough, the back cover of the album shows the iTunes listing, but it still doesn't answer why Crash (Lovebirds Remix) by Milton Jackson is 2:30 instead of 7:42.

  • How do I get my iPod touch to keep its place on music tracks when I use different apps?

    Since upgrading to IOS6 (iPod touch 4th generation) my iPod returns to the start of tracks rather than storing where I was up to if I stop listening to a track and use other apps. It's really annoying when listening to audio books that it won't keep my place.  How can I get it to keep my place again like it used to with IOS5

    You need to use iTune to sync music not Windows Media Player

  • Freezes, Especially When Navigating Menu Items

    Computer / Mouse freezes for a few seconds (and then recovers) almost every time I'm navigating the menu items (Bookmarks, adding Bookmarks), History etc.
    I have both Firefox and Nightly and both have same problem. Even disabling add-ons, themes etc. does not seem to have helped.
    It is a fairly new computer from HP and they said it was a software issue. Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

  • IPhone 5 skipping over every music track

    As of this morning, when I tried to play some music on my phone before work, my iPhone 5 began skipping music tracks one by one until it gets to the last two tracks. It displays the art and title for a split second, then skips to the next song. Only the last two tracks in my "purchased" playlist will play now without skipping forward.
    Anyone have a fix that doesn't require a restore?

    (shameless bump to try and get some feedback)

  • Siri and music problems when headphones attached.

    sometimes when using siri with my headphones, siri may stop completely whilst in mid sentence or the phone may just lock itself. also when using headphones to skip music tracks, the music may jump by itself or pause itself, then when I click the button play for a few seconds and then pause again... can anyone help?

    Looks like this may be a design flaw with the headphone jack... https://discussions.apple.com/message/24167826#24167826
    This is very frustrating. I am having the same issue with my iPhone 5s. When I insert the apple original headphones into the jack and I am on a call, sometimes the call gets disconnected. When headphone jack is plugged in, Siri randomly pops up when the wire close to jack is even slightly moved. When I am watching an iTunesU video (with headphones on) the video sometimes continuously starts skipping 15s as if the 15s forward jump button is being repeatedly pressed. Apple, please fix this!!!

  • IPod skips two tracks?

    I've noticed sometimes my new 60gb video skips two tracks when pressing next track. I haven't noticed any consistency to this (it'll happen maybe once every 20 times I press next track), and the track skipped will always play if I go back one.
    I've tried disabling album art (since all my music has it), but this doesn't make a difference.
    Could this be a button issue, or have other people been experiencing this?

    I just want to bump this thread with a ditto and expand on it by saying that my iPod is merrily skipping up to six tracks into an album and freezing too.
    I've noticed other threads making reference to the fact that the click wheel is misaligned in the casing on 5G iPods, mine appears to have moved over from the left (rewind) and leans to the right (fast forward) and I'm wondering whether the two issues could be related.

  • Music tracks lost in Elements Editor

    I create photostories of collected photos, import them into my catalog and then create a slide show in the Editor. I also add music tracks.
    Has anybody had a problem with the music tracks being gone upon restoring a backup? In fact, all of my backups are missing the music tracks when restored!! I now have little confidence when doing a backup that the music tracks are included!!
    Any advice or help?

    Hi Barbara:
    Thanks for your quick reply. However, I have restored backups of Adobe PSE before and it always included the photos and music tracks that were in the project. My music files along with all of my pictures are kept in a Adobe Folder on my D:drive. I regularly do a backup especially if I was working on a new project and wanted to save my work.
    About a month ago, I messed up a project and restored a backup file which had all my other projects and music tracks. It correctly recovered everything except the projec that I messed up. If I restore that same backup today, the music tracks are gone from all of my projects and I don't understand why.
    When I finish a project I either send it to Premiere Elements to add menus and either burn a DVD or write a .WMV file. If I don't use menu's I just output the project from PSE as a .WMV file. Thankfully, I have a .WMV file for all of my projects!!
    Any other advice or assistance?

  • Menu button on Apple TV remote doesn't work.

    Hi,
    Menu button stopped working on my Apple TV remote control. I tried holding menu and rewind button for 6 seconds but it still didn't help. All other functions work. Does somebody know how to fix this problem?
    Thank you,

    I'm having the exact same problem soraya1349. My menu button works in the main menus area to go back a screen, but not once I go into the Navi-X portal. In order to go back a screen there, I have to hit "home" and start again at the very beginning. Did you figure out a solution? You're the first person I've come across who has the same problem I'm having!

  • When streaming a movie with the new Apple TV, and using a DSL Internet connection, all audio sound works, e.g., the music track, but the audio track with the actor's voices, does not work. What can I do?

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

  • Music track skipping and playing silence on iPhone

    Some music tracks play sections of silence, others are skipping randomly like a scratched record. This happens when playing on the built-in speakers or on headphones. Tracks affected can be either CD imports or iTunes purchases.
    I have the latest iTunes update, I have iOS4, I have re-synched, restored the phone multiple times, checked my hard drive... What can be the cause of this? I am prepared to do whatever it takes to solve the problem but I have run out of ideas. The Genii Apple Store have no idea what's causing it.
    iPhone is proving not to be viable as a music player. I now have to carry my old iPod in addition to my iPhone if I want music.
    anyone? please ??

    MP3 is a lossy compression - the more you do it the more your music tracks will degrade. Re-encoding the songs which have already been encoded will gradually reduce the quality (much the same as photocopying a photocopy). If you really need to re-encode something it's best to take it from the source, i.e. rip from CD again.
    Obviously this would be a bit time consuming for all your tracks, but I think if you really had to do this with your entire music collection every time iTunes is upgraded there must be something seriously wrong with iTunes.
    If you have track problems there's probably something in your computer software which is conflicting with the processes going on in iTunes. In my case it appears to be my antivirus. Do a bit of detective work and try switching a few things off to narrow it down, but you shouldn't have to go through a laborious process of re-encoding which will eventually degrade the quality of your music.

  • I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    I'm getting this error message: "User not registered for online use" when i'm trying to download music/ track names from a CD into ITunes on my Windows 8 PC.  I'm registered and my itunes account/ appleID are all correct and working.

    The ""not recognized for on-line use". error is associated with the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to look up and retrieve metadata for CDs.  Some users have reported that this error occurs when trying to import from CD, subsequent to upgrading to version 12.  A number of slightly different solutions have been reported (though all of a similar nature).
    Try walking through the following steps - before starting you may have to enable hidden files and folders to be viewed - in Windows 7 / Windows Explorer select Organize > Folder and search options, then on the View tab make sure that Show hidden files, folders and drives is selected.  Without this you won't see the AppData folder in C:\Users\username\
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this doesn't work:
    In iTunes, select Edit > Preferences and make a note (or take a screenshot) of your preferences settings in all relevant tabs
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows Explorer, go to the folder C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete the following file:iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If this second procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1.
    If this one didn't work:
    Exit iTunes
    Check the following folders:
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\iTunes
    Delete any copies of the following files:
    CD Info.cidb
    com.apple.iTunes.Gracenote.plist
    iTunesPrefs.xml
    Restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    Again, if this procedure does work, you'll need to restore other iTunes preferences settings to those that you noted in step 1 of the second procedure. If you're still not able to retrieve CD info:
    Exit iTunes
    In Windows, select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features.  Find the entry for iTunes, right-click and select Repair.
    When this process has finished, restart iTunes
    Insert a CD and see if details are now correctly retrieved from Gracenote
    If none of these have worked (and almost everything I've seen suggests you should be OK by this point), you may have an issue with the installation and configuration of iTunes itself.  If you have got this far, see turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for advice on how to remove and replace of all components of iTunes.

  • How can i get my car to change the track when i am listening to the music on my phone through the line-in?

    how can i get my car to change the track when i am listening to the music on my phone through the line-in? is there a app i can download so it will recognize it? i have a vauxhal astra and the controls are on the steering wheel

    First question is how old is Astra and you are in UK ( well you must be to have a Vauxhall)
    Normally the Radio only has a line in socket  to allow sound
    You have two choices here either a simple cable with a 3.5mm Headphone plus at each end
    or a cable with the headphone plug to place in car's line in plug and a wide Apple socket to fit the base of your iPhone This allegedly gives better sound but  you have to control the iPhone for music selection
    The equipment you need to control the iPhone from the Steering Wheel controls ,which I suspect currently handles radio /Cd  tracks /stations ,is much more complicated it will have to be integrate with the Factory Fitted  radio
    and designed to manage the S/Wheel  controls and translate to the iPhone .
    Fitted into back of radio etc etc
    If car is a recent Vauxhall there may be a kit available from them .but will not be cheap
    Many imponderables you did not give much away in your OP
