Ask before you stop song that is currently playing.

I am at a party, a song is playing from my ipad. I pick up my ipad to search for another song and touch the screen by mistake which stops the song I am playing. It should have a pop up that asks if you would like to navigate or stop what is playing. It can kill a mood.

  • I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing.

    I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing  Looking for a music app or a way to let me stop the music that is playing. I have asked this over and over all over the internet and no one has an answer. I enjoy my music for a while but when it is time to STOP THE MUSIC I have found but one way - Turn off or power down the device. This is so annoying I have stopped playing and stopped purchasing any and all music of any type. If I can not find a way to do so I will remove all music from my devices until I may hear of how to STOP THE MUSIC. I have seen it is done on Android devices but no Apple devices. If there proves to never be a way to STOP THE MUSIC I will surely sell all 5 of my iPhones, iPads and iPad Minis and finally give up on Apple ever truly caring about their users.

    Wwell, maybe it is just me. I have been using and have bought 7 Apple devices just over the past 3-5 years. Having supported, programmed, configured and taught college level courses for MS based and super computer hardware and software configurations for almost 20 years I am apparently ignorant of differential operations. Previously I had 5 choices on any hardware or software when playing anything like music, video, DVDs or anything similar. I had 'Play' 'Fast Forward' 'Fast Rewind' 'Pause'  a n d  'STOP'. Perhaps Apple has found the STOP unnecessary but I thoro enjoyed knowing whatever I was playing had STOPped and could not continue unless I chose to go back to the program or equipment and chose any of the 5 choices except STOP again since I could not STOP a STOP. As I said perhaps I need to reconsider my choices and obvious ignorance. Thanks for all the help.

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    Hi, Mrs.Frankie57. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you want to delete a song from your iOS device on iOS 7, tap Songs, swipe the song from right to left, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

  • How do I set up my iTunes Genius to play selections from all, not just some, of my songs in my currently playing playlist?

    Last night, when I played my playlist songs with iTunes Genius, my iTunes, with one of my playlists selected, and set on "Shuffle On," "Genius Shuffle On, "Genius On," "Match On," and "Play," played selections from all of my songs in my playlist. Today, my iTunes Genius went back to the same problem it was giving me before last night. My iTunes Genius has been playing selections from just a few of my playlist albums. How do I set up my iTunes Genius to play selections from all, not just some, of my songs in my currently playing playlist?

    No backup is a huge mistake.

  • TS1362 I bought songs that do not play completely.

    I recently purchased a couple songs that do not play completely. The songs stop midway through and also, when I try to progress the song through the slide bar on the player it just skip to the next song. Is there a way to fix it?

    Delete the current copies and then download again (free) from your purchased history. If the problem persists contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

  • I need to get songs that are currently on an ipod onto my computer

    I have a windows pc, I just formatted the harddrive. I expected that I could just copy all the songs from the ipod to the computer but that didn't work (some error)
    So how would I go about doing this? How would I get my songs back on my computer. I didn't download them from itunes btw.

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. The transfer of non iTunes Music Store content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 so it requires a little adaptation as the iPod preferences are no longer in the location described for instance but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    iGadget Windows Only
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. Relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Apple TV stops playing certain songs that it would play previously

    This is getting really frustrating! I have certain songs which I can play then eventually it will stop playing them. I can still see the album artwork song etc. But when the song is selected in shuffle or I manually select them it just sits there and won't play. I have reset twice and after each reset the songs will play again but eventually days later stop playing for some unknown reason! I just got this before Christmas and it was fine until either New Years or the latest version of the software came out. I am getting tired of resetting and starting over! I have 2 apple TV's and I am ready to take them both back because they both do the same thing!

    Same happens here after I have upgraded to the latest Apple TV software version 4.1.1. Didn´t have that problem before.
    The MP3´s play flawlessly on my iPhone 4 and on the mediathek/iTunes of my Macbook Pro 17.
    Further my remote app on the iPhone 4 is now extremely unresponsible with apple tv.
    Was much better before the "Upgrade".
    I use OSX 10.6.6 all updates are applied everything else smooth and easy.
    Seems this was a downgrade instead of an upgrade.

  • My iPod announces the current and previous songs that have been played when I touch it.

    For some reason my iPod 6th generation announces the current song or album being played AND the past or last album that was played when I touch it.  How do I turn off this feature?

    Sounds like VoiceOver has been activated.  See this article for instructions on how to turn it off.
