Can I set a time for music in iTunes to stop

I use an iPad to play my music to an Airplay speaker. I sometimes use the playlist on my iPad and if I want to increase my listening pleasure I would use Remote to play from my entire libray on the iMac.
I've looked but can't seem to find any way of setting a timer for playback. I listen to music at night and rather than have it play the entire night. Dose anyone know of a a utility/app for atimer setting in iTunes?
I believe Apple sould consider this feature for a future addition to iTunes.
Thanks,

It is not yet a built-in feature, but there are quite a few sleep timers around.
For example:

I have not tried them, however

    If your Mac Model supports POWERNAP under Mountain Lion, yes backups and software updates can occur while the mac is taking a power nap (kind of light sleep).

  • Running FF12.0, how can I set maximum time for History Storage? What's the maximum time?

    Previous versions would allow me to set storage time up to 1 year, I think. Now I can't find the path to set this time. I would like to set it to as much as possible.

    Firefox 4+ versions do not have a time limit for the history.<br />
    Firefox determines automatically how many pages can be kept without affecting the performance.<br />
    You can see the current value via the read-only pref places.history.expiration.transient_max_pages on the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset no longer used browser.history_expire_days* prefs from older Firefox versions, if you still have them, to remove them on the next start.

    How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

  • Can I set up folders for major classifications of music as opera, country, etc. and then put all the albums with the genre into those folders folders?

    Hi Richard Bugdal1,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    You can't change the folder structure within iTunes, but you can easily change the view to sort by Genre.
    The link below will explain how to do this:

  • Can i set the timing for individual photos in a slideshow

    there are text pages that need to be read but not at a 4 second speed
    it has to be slower more time
    syncing to music i compose is a must
    can each individual photo have its own time
    i hope so or else they ruined a wonderful product
    with this limitation

    Glen:
    Yes, you can. Under the slide there's a button titled "Adjust'. Click on it and you can set the time for that slide, the transition, etc.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically.

    I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically, like the sleeper function on a TV.
    Does such an app exist? Can anyone help me? Thanks

    You can try the Sleep Timer.

  • Can you set an alert for birthdays in Addressbook and iCal?

    When I migrated from Palm Calendar to iCal, my calendar had my birthdays in it repeating each year and with a 7 day alert so I could send a card or get a present in time.
    I see you can list a birthday in Addressbook and set the iCal pref to show them which is at first glance very cool and green but when I open the birthday event in iCal I don't see any way to set an alert which is a big limitation.
    If I can't set alerts, then the Addressbook/iCal birthday syncing is kind of pointless and limited, unless I'm missing how to set alerts.

    Hi Steven,
    This is one of the reasons why I wrote Dates to iCal.
    As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries.
    Best wishes

  • How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen?

    How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen? Every webpage I go to does not expand to a full screen which causes me to have to ctrl+++ each time. How can I set my preference to expand to full screen automatically?
    Thanks.

    The Firefox [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom Page Zoom] feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox, as with some other browsers.

  • How can I set my time capsule to back-up only once a day?

    How can I set my time capsule to only back-up once a day.  It appears to be backing up several times a day.  Not sure there is a set schedule for the back-ups and they take a great deal of time; over an hour each.

    Then something is wrong.  Changing the schedule will only deal with the symptom (and give up one of the better features of Time Machine's usually quick and unobtrusive hourly backups).
    See if the size of the backups makes sense, considering what you've changed since the previous one.  If it seems much too large, that may be the problem.  See #D4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for some common culprits and ways to see just what's going on.
    If the sizes seem reasonable, see #D2 in the same link for things that can cause extra-slow backups.

  • Can't set an alert for my Reminders

    I have gone into reminders and set a new reminder (Things to do tonight) with 4 items in the list.
    I have spent the last 20 minutes trying to set a time for the reminder to alert me/remind me but I can't for the life of me figure how to set an alert!
    I feel like a retard ... clearly I'm just slow and it's looking me right in the face...
    How do I set my reminder to remind me????

    Each item in the list is a separate reminder.
    Tap one, tap the i with a circle and set the date/time to be reminded.

  • Petition: Creative to change it so we can put a specific time for backlight on micro to go on/

    CREATIVE TO CHANGE IT SO WE CAN PUT A SPECIFIC TIME FOR BACKLIGHT ON MICRO TO GO ON/OFF. Wouldn't it be nice during the daytime to save battery and have the backlight off, and then during the night have the backlight on, WITHOUT going to settings every single time to change it. Or in the menu creative could add a backlight shortcut, so when pressed the backlight will go on/off. PLEASE SIGN AND LEAVE YOUR OPINION... Thank you

    In the interest of preseving battery life - my backlight is on permanent off (unless I specifically need it, say on a red-eye flight and its way dark in the plane), so this isn't so much of an issue to me.
    What I would like to see, again as a power-saving thing, is an option to turn off the display altogether. For example, set the unit so after so much time (30 sec) the entire display turns off, and then comes back on when you hit the touchpad.

  • I can't set up time and date / no response or it s...

    Hi guys
    I hope You will help me.
    I purchased nokia 5800 (second hand) for my girlfriend this christmas as a present and everything is fine apart 'time and date settings'.
    When you going to 'setting' and try to select 'date and time' there is no reaction, if you trying open by clicking 'options' and than 'open' it appears straight away  'System error' message or if you trying do it from the home screen/desktop by clicking on the clock 'System error' message appears straight away.
    It is very confusing and driving me mad as this is christmas gift and she can't set up time and date.
    I've tried  update software using Nokia Software Updater and nothing
    I've restored factory setting and nothing as well. 
    Please help me
    Thank You very much for Your time
    Kind regards

    Hi monpar77
    If you are using restore factory settings in "Phone management" due to UDP = User Data Preservation feature of this device that may not be sufficient and you may need to carry out a "hard reset" as detailed elsewhere in the forum.

    Hi,
    You can activate Time-Dependent Publishing Service on your XML form and once the Lifetime of Documents is over then the document is not visible to users.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c1/c87d3cf8ff3934e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
    It is only invisible but not deleted!
    So to delete all expired XML Forms you should run Scheduler Tasks for Time-Dependent Publishing:
    <b>TimeBasePublishingUnpublish</b>
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/3a/bc37b5789dee4eaa8005bff84f14cf/frameset.htm
    You can also create your own Scheduler Task which deletes/archieves all expired XML Forms.
