Blank, "currently playing" window.

Last night I went to my friends house and somehow her daughter managed to find my ipod and listen to some music for less than 10 seconds. It was working fine but this morning when I started listening to my songs I noticed that there was a blank window in the currently playing rather than showing the name of the song or artwork and then how far it is into the song, the name of it bla bla bla, volume, skip, etc. So this is not showing up. I thought maybe her daughter messed with some settings but she didn't. I even reset the setting and that didnt work. I need to know if there's a way where I can view my song info again. I can turn up the volume and go to the next song but I just can't see what I'm doing.
This is what I'm talking about. I'm not able to view this anymore.

Press the center button.
It switches from Volume -> Scrubber (move thru songs) -> Rating -> Lyrics -> Artwork -> Volume, etc.
If this does not do anything, read this -> http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303130

  • Command L brings up the downloading window instead of current playing

    Hello!
    Is it just me who have problem with that command + L (cmd l) brings up my downloading list instead of showing whats currently playing?
    I'm using Itunes 12.0.1.26 on a Mac mini late 2012 with Yosemite 10.10. Language swedish.
    First picture shows command L should go to currently playing.
    But as you see in second picture command L is also to get to the downloading window.
    Best regards, Daniel

  • Drag & Drop image of currently playing song causes the Spotify window to "jump" to another position

    When I try to drag and drop the image of the currently playing song (the one that appears under the playlist list, on the left side of the screen), the entire Spotify window jumps (i.e. moves/repositions) inside the screen to a totally different position, making it impossible to drag the song to the intended playlist. It seems that the the window is moved to the current mouse cursor position (i.e. the left top position of the window becomes the mouse cursor position, with an offset). When I reposition the window again manually, and try to do the same thing, it doesn't happen. I have been able to reproduce this issue a 100% of the times: I just refocus a few other windows I have open and then try to add the currently playing song to a playlist in the afore mentioned way.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • How to skip the currently-playing tune in iTunes 11?

    How do I skip the currently-playing tune in iTunes 11 if I don't want to hear the rest of it?  Clicking pause and then play just resumes that same tune, which often isn't what I want to do.
    I'm using an HP laptop with the Win 7 Home Premium operating system, if this makes any difference.

    In the Movies list view right click on the header row ie Name, Time, Genre etc at the top of the movie window. Select Date Added from the list. a new column Date Added will show and you can sort on this by Clicking on it.

    There is a lightning fast way.
    Just click on the bent arrow at the right in the display in above the iTunes window.
    It will bring you instantly to the playing song.
    The arrow looks a bit like this ↩

  • Editing currently playing song - freeze

  • How can I get that which one is currently activated window

    I created a frame. The user may be minimize that frame and he may use some other window like internet explorer or Notepad or something else. Then I want to know that which window is the currently activated window. Is it possible. Please help me.

    you can use Javascript functions/varibles.
    In any page you can insert a special form like this:
    <form name="myNameWindow">
    <input type="hidden" name="myName" value="Ivan_pag01">
    </form>
    and in the other reading that value.
    Obviusly you have to save a reference in a variable of the other window.
    This is possible only if:
    1) other page is in the same browser window but in an other frame
    2) you have generated the other page via an "window.open" function (or your page is generated from it via that function)

  • Is there any way to create a mini Now Playing window that can "float?"

    Hi,
    I've been reading the Help in iTunes, as well as searching the Net, but I'm not finding the functionality I want. Basically, I want to have a mini Now Playing window that I can reposition so it's not covered up by other windows while I'm working. Is there a plugin that will do this, or is it a standard feature of iTunes, that I've overlooked?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    I'm not sure what you're asking about. What "announcement" are you seeing? Is it possible you've installed a plugin of some sort? iTunes, on its own, doesn't announce what song is playing, except in its usual little gray window.
    You can get rid of the iTunes window entirely by clicking the red "close window" button in the upper left (or typing command-option-1). If you are still looking for an answer to your original question — creating a mini-player that floats on top of all other windows — click the green "minimize" button and select "Keep MiniPlayer on top of all other windows" in Preferences > Advanced.
    I don't know which Chris you're talking about.

  • I currently run Windows 7 on my iMac using the Parallels software on a Virtual Machine. I now wish to use Windows through bootcamp. How do I remove windows from the Virtual Machine

    I currently run Windows 7 on my Imac through a Virtual Machine format with the Parallels software. I now wish to remove Windows from the VM restore the Hard Drive to a single partition then install windows 7 using bootcamp. How do I go about it

    The virtual machine isn't a partition on your hard drive, it's just a file. You can delete the vm by going into Paralells preferences or just drag t to the trash. Bootcamp will partition your hard drive for a Win 7 install.

  • 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.

  • Can't get rid of blank iCal Alarm window

    Several days ago my MacBook pro running 10.5.8 mysteriously reset its calendar to 2000. When I reset it in Preferences/Date and Time everything was fine with the exception of an ICal blank message pane/window that keeps appearing after every sleep and start-up--the beach ball twirls for about five minutes during which everything freezes or runs super slow.  I found some online conversation dating to 2009 about ways to fix this, but none of them worked for me. I tried trashing the iCal App which did not work nor did running a FixToDo dmg script someone suggested. I never use iCal and would have no problem deleting the whole program if I could.  All help gratefully received.  Thanks v much.

    Great news!
    That is the first thing that I think about, when there is some hang in the GUI.
    Next, launching PrE and IMMEDIATELY holding down Ctrl+Shift+Alt (not sure that all are required, but that works for PS and PrPro), until the program launches, and then accepting the Reset of Preferences.
    Third, would be to look at the video driver, and compare that with the very latest on the nVidia, or ATI/AMD Web site, and install the latest.
    Glad that it cleared things for you, and good luck,

  • Can I install Windows 8 (DEMO) on a MAC and play windows based games ?

    Can I install Windows 8 (DEMO) on a MAC and play windows based games ?

    I installed the Developer beta with Bootcamp Assistant yesterday and was very impressed with the ease of the installation. Unfortunately, and I don't know if this is a problem with my video BIOS on my Macbook Air, but Windows 8 installs with two screens split horizontally - so it's effectively useless.
    I tried 3 times and gave up. The same thing happens with Linux distributions, however with Linux I can pass "nomodeset" on the kernel command line which fixes it. I don't know how to do that in Windows.
    This was happening with both 64x and 32-bit Win8 fwiw.
    Oh, also...when I was trying to play around with Bootcamp.exe inside Windows 8, I remember a message popping up saying Bootcamp is only configurable with Windows 7 ISOs. But aside from the kernel graphics issues and some driver compatibility problems, Bootcamp loaded the Win8 ISOs fine.
