Auto Play Music

I have an iPhone 5S running IOS 7.1.1 and when I plug it into my car stero USB port to charge the phone, it automatically starts to play my music. Is there any way to stop this?

No, I don't think that you are psychic. My question was do you think it is possible to stop the head from auto playing music. It was a general question and not specific to my stereo - especially since I didn't list the make/model number of my stereo. I guess I could have been more specific with my question. Maybe I should have said, "Do you know if it is possible with any stereo head unit to change the way it responds to an iPhone plugged into the USB port?" Just so you know, I have read the manual on this several times and there is nothing in there about it. On your suggestion however, I read the manual again and there is still nothing in there about this problem. I have also been searching the Internet off on on for months trying to find a solution to my problem. I have checked every possible setting on my phone to no avail. If you look on the Internet, you will find plenty of other people that are having the same problem. No one seems to have the answer and I was very grateful that you would attempt to help me - that is until I received your short, very curt answer. After that, I felt like you were slapping me down and putting me in my place. To answer you question on what I expected, I quess it was just a little help. Nothing more than that...
To help anyone else that may have the same problem as I have with my stereo/iPhone, I was able to get in touch with Sony technical support today regarding this issue. They were able to reproduce the problem I described and confirmed that there was not any setting I could change on my stereo to fix the problem. They called it a "compatibility issue" and said that it would probably take a firmware update to fix it. My stereo is a Sony Xplod model #MEX-BT3900U.
BTW Kilted Tim... Thank you for your service to our country.

Can't auto play music post iweb 1.1 update

Hello,
I have just updated to iweb 1.1. On the previous version I was able to publish and edit the html source using Taco HTML Edit to auto play Quicktime music attachment but with the 1.1 update I can't seem to find the source code for the music attachment. Please look at the source for this page:
http://web.mac.com/dilation/iWeb/Site/Foundation.html
there definitely is music attachment but can't see it from the source. And for some reason I need to right click the play button to play rather then left.
Does anyone know how I can make the music to autoplay post iweb 1.1 update?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.6)

The recent update to iWeb now places QuickTime content in a javascript file. Yours is:
http://web.mac.com/dilation/iWeb/Site/Foundation_files/Foundation.js
And the music file is:
4-11%20Piano%20Sonata%20No.13%20in%20E%20flat%20major,%20Op.27_1%20III.%20Adagio %20con%20espressione.m4a
It includes many spaces and some punctuation that could cause issues with playback on some machines.

Some opinions please on Auto play?

Hello, I finally have my site ready to start sending out to my piano students ... and so far from my friends have said they love the site.
But I read a few articles where people are ranting full force about auto play music ... so my question please is this:
Is this sort of auto play piece going to REALLY disturb anyone? It's a gorgeous clip from a Chopin sonata, recorded by me and set at a low auto play volume. It is easily accessible to turn OFF if it actually does annoy anyone.
http://www.prodigypianostudios.com
But I figure my target audience would appreciate this clip.
Please let me know if this set up conforms well to an artists / pianists site, and if there is a way to possibly have the first page come with a pop up that simply asks the visitor if it would like to start playing soft music ... or if they would like to continue with none?
Thanks!

What you think is beautiful music others may find annoying and intrusive. Consider the following scenarios:
Your site visitors are listening to other media (iTunes, YouTube, web radio, CDs or whatever...). If your site has autoplay, it will compete with whatever they're listening to resulting in a media cacophony.
Perhaps your site visitors surf in close proximity to other people (co-workers, students, public library users) who don't appreciate gratuitous music.
There's a sleeping baby in the next room...
Media on web pages must be presented with utmost care and consideration for your site visitors.
Turn off Autoplay.

I purchased an itrip Auto Pilot and require an app to use it according to my device I was setting up to play music in my car speakers. I cannot find an app for this in the itunes store. Help

I purchased an ITrip Auto Pilot and when attempting to use it to play music from my Iphone through my car speakers, I was promptedd to get an app from the itunes store to enable it to work. I went to the itunes store and searched for an app and could not find one. Can anyone tell me the app I need and where to get it for this itrip auto pilot made by Griffin? It is supposedd to enable my iphone and ipod to play on my FM radio in my car.

You should go to the web site for the iTrip product and see what app it is, I'll bet there's a link there that will take you right to the app. Don't worry, as you get more stuff it'll be easier to figure it all out, eventually it'll be plain old common sense that solves these types of issues for you

I started setting up a web page with iWeb. Auto play box is checked, but music will not play when page is opened.

I started setting up a web page with IWeb.
Several proplems so far:
1) Auto Play box checked for music, but music does not start when page is opened.
2) Can't get Quicktime "start/stop" slide to start and finish a section within a long piece of music (classical for example). How does one work the slide bar to do this?

Yes the audio file plays on the iWeb page when I click the play button. I even made sure it played both without the “little boxes” that surround the icon (don’t know the technical name for those), and when I click the music icon without the little boxes.
I did note that the iTunes window that appears when I open the Inspector is not highlighted until I click the music icon and those little boxes appear. Then the Start/Stop, Auto Play, Loop, and Show Movie Controller are highlighted — and work properly.
One other thing. I see that the iWeb icon I am working from says “Domain copy.sites2.” Does that have a bearing on anything?

Is there any way to stop websites from auto-playing their content (music/videos) when the page loads?

Certain websites have ads or content that plays music or videos and they are not always easily found to turn off. This also slows down my connection as it is constantly streaming or buffering and I have no way of stopping it. Is there any way that I can disable the websites from automatically playing their content?

Is there any other options for this?
I don't want to block the audio/video, and I do use ad-blocker... However, it's just really annoying when I "open link in new tab" for something I want to look at a little later. Especially if I open several at once, I get multiple tabs playing audio and/or video, and sometimes it takes a while to figure out which tab is doing what...
The issue is I don't want to "block" them -- I just don't want them to play until either the tab is "activated" by clicking on it, or better yet, to only play when I click on the audio/video link.
Thanks!

Podcast app no longer auto-plays next episode. Is this a setting that I can change?

After updating to iOS6 and downloading the app update, the the next episode in the "unplayed episode" list no longer auto-plays. I really liked that feature and would like to be able to turn it on again. Any one know if there is a setting and where it is? I've tried to find it to no avail. Thanks!

Anyone has a solution for this ?
I like to listen to podcasts in my car. But my favorite podcasts last 4-6 minutes and the iPhone is in the glovebox
Needless to say I had to stop listening to podcasts since the podcast App took over the music app.

Video playlists no longer auto-playing (4.3)

I've noticed that my music video playlists no longer auto-play from one song to the the next with the latest OS update (iPhone 4.3, Apple TV 4.2). Basically, a music video stops and the next one doesn't start until I press play again.
Any solutions?

I have the same problem.
I am using an iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3) and various Apple TVs (4.2).
When i start a playlist with music videos from the iTunes store, the first video will be played on the Apple TV and then Apple TV plays this Video again but "repeat" is not selected. Actually the next clip in the list shut be played. Seems to be a bug :-(

Ipod won't play music or video, other than that it works fine

My ipod 60gb 5.5 gen wont play music or video. I took it to an unexperienced ipod repair centeer and they couldn't figure it out. I took it to an apple store and they said that it was probably the hard drive but weren't sure. I can use this ipod as a hard drive. It will store and transfer files at full capacity. It also will auto scroll through pictures. If the hard drive had malfuntioned then wouldn't I have trouble using it as a removable hard drive? When I select a song to play, it shows album art work but remains at 0:00. I have restored it. When I did a diagnostic run, it didn't show the hard drive in the options for testing. I can repair my ipod myself. I'm talented but I need to know what part to buy first.
Help!

IPod must be playing music in order to unlock?!?

this is weird, but my 2g iPod touch needs to be playing music in order to be unlocked from the 'lock' screen. it also HAS to be plugged in to my laptop via USB cable.
if these two requirements aren't met, then the iPod takes me back to the 'lock' screen immediately after sliding the bar over.
i performed a system restore twice now, it's running the latest firmware. what's going on here?!?
thanks for all responses.

well what do you know?!? that worked when i tried it. i disabled the auto-lock (which will get me in trouble later) and after that it will load up the springboard.
i have to wonder why this is though? and why it's never done it before?
this was helpful, but i'm still looking for a possible solution. i'd like to have auto-lock on for battery and human accidental purposes

How do I configure my bluetooth on my iPod Touch 4G to automatically play music when connected and to connect as media not a phone?

Is there any way to have my iPod Touch automatically start playing music when it connects to my car stereo via Bluetooth?
Also, I would like the option to connect to my car stereo as media only and not as a phone. My car stereo supports the ability to connect to a phone via Bluetooth simultaneously with another device such as my iPod Touch as a media source. The problem is that if my iPod Touch connects first it will force out my phone from connecting via Bluetooth since it connects as a phone as well as media. I have been able to make this whole setup work by turning both my phone's Bluetooth off and my iPod Touch's Bluetooth off. Then turning my phone's Bluetooth on first and allowing it to connect. Then changing the Bluetooth option on my phone to only connect as phone. Then turning my iPod Touch's Bluetooth on and that works just fine. Both devices respond perfectly but for that to work I have to do that process everytime I get into my car. Is there anyway to set this up so I don't have to go through all of this hassle?
Btw my iPod Touch has been updated to version 4.3.5.
Any suggestion, comments, or concerns would be helpful.
Thanks,
Jon

If you store itunes andn iphoto library on the TC you could be in trouble. The TC has no auto backup mechanism.. it is simply unable to work as a true NAS. It has no media servers. It is slow.. it is very easy to corrupt libraries especially in connection over wireless. In general we recommend people do not do this.
If you go ahead anyway.. apple have specific instructions for moving the libraries.. do follow it.
I am not sure if the SONOS can play directly from itunes library or has to use an itunes server.. remember the TC is a dumb as a board router with no media servers. Apple TV also need an active itunes to work AFAIK.. you cannot play files.. unless you JB the ATV.
Also be careful as SONOS does not like apple names.. use all SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
Finally yes,.. at last .. you can extend the wireless in the TC using another apple router.. you cannot extend wireless using any other brand.

How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title

How can I get rid of the display of the last played music-title
When playing a music-title the name of the title and it's progress is displayed in the box at the top of iTunes, even if the music is already stopped or ended. This display is impeding f.i. when copying music-albums to iPhones and watching the progress. Can anyone tell me please how to make the display of the last played music-title disappear?
Thank you very much in advance.
Hans M

OK, thank you very much, fiend.
However: Since yesterday afternoon my e-mail-acount is being flooded with 50+ e-mails every few hours which are not at all related to my question. I'm copying the properties of one e-mail as a sample. Could you please organize this flood to stop or tell me what to do?
Thank you very much!

Podcast app auto-play on bluetooth connect, not wanted!

I've read several threads regarding annoying behavior of audio apps while connected to bluetooth audio devices, but none directly relating the problem I have.
In fact, the thing that bothers me appears to generally be considered to be desireable to most people commenting in these threads:
I'd like to have the option to just turn off auto-play when my phone connects to my bluetooth car radio.
Sometimes, I want it to do that, other times, I want to hear my radio, and I am really annoyed that I have to pull the phone out of my pocket, switch it on, enter my security code, switch to the podcast app, and finally, touch the pause button!
I can't find an option in control panel, or the podcast app that allows me to disable bluetooth auto-playback when I don't want it doing that.
I've got an Iphone 5, running IOS 6.1.4 (10B350) and podcast 1.2.1 (331), both of which must have already had the problem that most of these threads address fixed.
Am I overlooking something? Is there a way to tell podcast to mind its own business and not take control of my car radio when I get in and start the motor?
And no, I don't want to just turn off bluetooth! We have a law in this state (Oregon) that says you can't fiddle with your phone while you're driving. I want my phone to connect automatically, but I want podcast to shut up unless I tell it to auto-connect.
Thanks....

I reallly need some help here, folks, this is becoming an unacceptible situation!
Update: I read on several of the other threads about bluetooth and podcast issues that the only solution that works is to delete the podcast app and use the music player to listen to podcasts, so I deleted it not long after I made the original post, which meant I had to re-download my podcasts with my phone connected to a computer running itunes.
This morning, I drove my car for the first time since deleteing the podcast app, and I was disturbed to hear one of my podcasts playing though the car speakers!
I don't have any music stored on my phone, so I don't know if the music player would have started playing music every time it connects to the bluetooth reciever in my car radio, but I can only assume that it does do that since it started playing my podcast.
There's no option in settings for music or bluetooth that lets you either tell music not to play when the phone connects to a bluetooth audio device, or to tell bluetooth in the phone what apps to start up on connect.
This is a major oversight in my opinion, and Apple should fix it.
Does everyone but me want music to automatically start whenever their phone connects to a bluetooth device?
Is there a solution to this problem?

Static when playing music via USB in car stereo after updating to OS4.1

Greetings everyone.
After updating my iPod Touch (3rd Gen) to OS4.1 I am experiencing static, scratching like or popping sounds when I am playing music in my car using the USB port. I do not get these noises when I am listening with a set of earbuds, only when in the car and connected via USB. I haven't yet tried bluetooth connection but will give it a shot tomorrow. Has anyone else experienced this?
If any one from Apple is following this thread please give me some advice how to correct this problem. I suppose if I have too and bluetooth connection gives me the same trouble I will need to restore my iPod. Is it possible to go back in OS? I was using OS 4.0.2 prior without any problems.
Thanks
Dave

Dave this is what i went thru this past week with Apple Tech
Ipod problem
Aug 19 2010 Purchased New IPOD McDill AFB
Sep 15th 2010 Upgraded IPOD software from 3.1.3 to 4.1
On Sep 16 2010,
I notice that I tunes was skipping in my car using the USB connector. When I use the Audio output jack on the IPod the ITunes music did not skip. I hooked up a NANO to the USB connector in my car and the music played good no skips.
Sep 17 2010
I notified Apple Care and told them of the problem and they concluded it was an IPOD Problem. They issued a repair number (177988440) and notified Apple Distributer in Brandon, FL ( 50 miles from my home) to allow me to exchange the
IPOD for a newer one Ser# 9E0344816K2.
When I connected the new IPod to My Mac I was prompted to upgrade the IPOD software from 3.1.3 to 4.1. However, before I upgraded I notified the Apple Technician (Ms. Daylin Dat # 877-416-4271 Ex 2845) of the replacement and I asked if it was feasible to upgrade the IPOD to 4.1 since I believed the new up grade caused the problem.
Daylin, said to go ahead and up grade the IPOD to the 4.1 version.
When I completed the up grade I connected the IPOD to my car’s USB connection and the same problem occurred in the new IPOD.
I took the new IPOD to Gettle Toyotta in Bradenton and asked if I could use one of their cars that has a USB connection and test out my IPOD and sure enough I had the same problem with the ITunes music (It was skipping).
I notified Apple Technician again and they said go back up to the Brandon Apple distributor and get a replacement for this IPOD. I said no because it was a 100 mile round trip so they said were going to mail me a replacement.
I returned the IPOD to Apple they did all kinds of in house test and said there was no problem wit it so they sent it back to me. So now i'm stuck with a IPOD that i cannot use with the USB connection in my auto
Note I went on Toyota Prius forum site and there was a lot of discussion with the IPOD 3rd generation with IOS 4.1
A lot of people are have this problem
I notified Apple Tech and sent them a link to the Prius Form site.
So that where it stands right now.
By the way I hooked up the IPOD to a brand new Honda USB port and it worked great so the issue is with the IPOD IOS 4.1 and Toyota autos.
