Can the slideshow on iPhoto play more than one song during the duration?

I have put together a slideshow for my grandfathers funeral. I am trying to put it to music, but it will only allow me to use one song at a time from my iTunes, even after I have made a special playlist for this. Help, I have to complete this by tonight.
Thank you!

As King_Penguin correctly points out that iPhoto slide shows are one track only. But here is how I get around this limitation.
I purchased Amadeus. It's a music program that lets you record, copy, and edit music files. I make copies of all the songs I want to use in my slide show then combine them into one file in Amadeus. If you want to change music at a specific slide it can get a little tough figuring out the timing but it can be done.
Once you have the single music file arranged the way you want, save it and import it into iTunes. I find it best to make a new playlist with just the new file included. Then select the new playlist for your slideshow in iPhoto.

How can I get iTunes to play more than one song before stopping?

When I click on a song listed in iTunes, iTunes plays it and then stops. How can I get it to continue and play the next song, and then the next..
Thanks

I just found the answer. iTunes will play consecutively the songs that are checked, if Controls --> Repeat Off is checked. When I asked the question I had unchecked all songs.

Sound like something messed up somehow. Maybe you can consider reinstalling the drivers again? @28.86.2.0

Play more than one song at a time

The apple tv won't play more than one song on my playlist. And why can't there be playlists under "Music" and well as "Computer"?

This has been a condition since day one. The "working" icon just keeps going and it doesn't move on to the next song. I've tried using the random play option as well to no avail.
Is this when trying to stream content from iTunes using the Computers icons and Music submenu? I assume the same happens when you try to play from the internet using the main Music icon too? Is it only on Shuffle or when playing an album?
What about movie rentals from itunes Store - will they play ok?

While that seems logical don't entirely discount it - issues like this are incredibly frustrating to pin down to which component on the network is causing the problem - your old AppleTV worked (with Windows 8?) so this makes the newer model the more likely culprit I would agree.
Whenever there are issues like this, if you have not done so:
1 - Unpower AppleTV, router and restart along with the computer.
2 - If connecting via wifi and it is feasible to test with ethernet do so to exclude wifi as the problem somewhere in the chain.
3 - If streaming from iTunes check the computer is not going to sleep - power saving with hard drives spinning down could potentially cause a 'timeout' issue for access and worth temporarily disabling to test.
4 - Temporarily disable any security software (firewall/port blocking) on the computer or check if it is detecting AppleTV repeated connections as an unknown intrusion threat.
5 - Reset AppleTV and set it up again from the Settings menu.
6 - Restore AppleTV using iTunes and a microUSB to USB connection:
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV
7 - Assuming under warranty, take it to an Apple store and see if you can get a replacement. It may be faulty.
As I said these issues can be very tricky to pin down and it can be a process of elimination.
I had issues last year with connection problems - I thought it was an itunes update as there were threads elsewhere about multiple connections being established. One day I restarted my router and the problem was fixed. A few years ago my AppleTV1s were hanging after extended use - it was the Netgear router overheating ( aknown fault with that particular model).

ITunes will no longer play more than one song in a row

I upgraded my iTunes and it seemed to be working fine. But all of a sudden I cannot get my libraray or any playlist ti play more than one song at a time automatically. It just stops after each song. Any ideas?
Thanks

head into your itunes main library window. are all the little boxes to the left of your tracks unchecked?
is so, hold down Ctrl and click on one of those boxes to recheck all the songs. (this may take a little time.)
do you get continuous play once all the songs are rechecked?

How can I select more than one song from the search results?

I want to create playlists based on certain words in the song title. For example, I may want to create a playlist of all my songs with LOVE in the title.
Doing the search is easy, but I can't select more than one song at a time. Is there any way in iTunes 12 for Windows to do this? I found an answer in iTunes for Mac, and it basically says to "un-check "Search Entire Library." " but I don't see that option in iTunes for Windows.
Here is the link to that question: how can i select more than one song from drop down search bar
I hope some Windows user can help me out.

Found the "Search Entire Library" option - click on the small (VERY small for my eyesight) down arrow next to the magnifying glass. Also need to select "Filter by: Songs", and then the songs in the main window show the results.
I'm going to leave this up on the board because 1) in case someone else has this question, and 2) I don't know how to delete it anyway.

Can equaliser setting be applied to more than one song at a

I want to be able to apply equalizer settings to whole albums or to more than one song at a time , rather thanhaving to select each song and apply equalizer's settings individually
Is it possible?

Hi Simon. Yes you can. From the library section of iTunes, sort the list by Album, and then select all the songs within the album. Then right click, and click on get info. In the lower right corner of the window, you can set the equaliser presets for the selection. Hope that works ok for you.

How do I get iTunes to play more than one song at a time on my PC?

I have selected all in a playlist, then click the play button. It plays only the first song in the playlist. How do I get it to play all of those selected?

My iTunes is doing the same thing: when I select a playlist and hit "play," if shuffle is turned on, iTunes plays only one song and then stops. If shuffle is turned off, it plays just fine (one song after another, in order).
Select the songs, right click - get info.
Select the Options tab and Uncheck *Skip when shuffling*.
Also, when I hit shuffle, it doesn't rearrange the songs in the playlist like it's supposed to.
If you are sorting on any column besides the very first on before the track name, the songs will stay displayed in that same sort order.
When you play the playlist, the list will jump around and be shuffled.
If you are sorting on the very first column, the list will be displayed in the shuffled order and play in that order.

Why won't my iTunes 11 play more than one song at a time?

Songs appear in "Up Next", but at the end of the song being played they disappear and nothing gets played next. This makes iTunes useless as a music player. Please help.

How to make the new iTunes Radio play more than 2 songs without stopping?

I just upgraded to the latest version of iTunes (11.1.3 (8)) on my Macbook Pro and now the radio stations aren't working! It worked flawlessly before the upgrade! I've searched everywhere for troubleshooting tips and found many, many users with the same problem, but no response from Apple. I'm running OS 10.8.5 - is this the issue?
I can listen to maybe two songs before it stops playing. My internet connection is fine and I never experienced this problem before the upgrade. Also, I hate how you can't see a list of stations. I've searched and added some of my favorite stations I knew about from before, however, they are playing completely different music? How can this be?
Thanks!

Can i cloud be used on more than one phone with the same itunes account

I have two i phones one for my kids and one for me and we have one itunes/icloud account when we have i cloud on we lose our specific contact lists. can we not share i cloud?

I highly recommend individual iCloud accounts for stuff like syncing notes, mail, calendars, contacts, etc. My wife, kids and I have a total of 4 iCloud accounts and 1 iTunes in the Cloud account. My wife has one, I have one, my kids both have one, and we have one for iTunes in the Cloud. This way music, media, apps, and books are available across all the devices...

HELP! My library won't play more than one song!

Okay, so I've been using iTunes to listen to my music. I ALWAYS just click on Library in the sources list and then highlight shuffle and repeat then push play and it plays and shuffles through all of my tunes.
All of a sudden last night, I clicked the 'next' button to skip a song I didn't want to hear and instead of skipping to another song, the player stopped and the only option available was play. So I hit play and it played the same song but wouldn't skip to a new one.
I've restarted iTunes, re-installed iTunes... I've tried everything I can think of, but now I can't get my library to play through my songs.
The only way it works now is if I place check marks next to the songs and hit play, but given that I have almost 5,000 mp3s, that would take a really long time. I went to 'edit/select all' but that doesn't check the boxes next to the songs, nor is there an option to do so all at once.
Can anybody give me any siggestions on how to get things back to normal. How to play all the songs in my library without having to check each and every one of them? I am desperate for help and quite frustrated at the lengths I have had to go to to try to find someone to answer my question.
It seems that iTunes (unless you want the music store) does not have an option for contacting customer support... at least not one that I can find. I guess we have to rely on each other or something, or search through the millions of troubleshooting questions, hoping to find the one we need. Whatever! Anyways, please help. Thanks.

you've diagnosed the problem correctly. you need to recheck those boxes to get your shuffle working properly again.
to do a "global recheck", go to your main library view, hold down your Ctrl key, and left-click one of the checkboxes.
(the same technique can be used to do a "global uncheck".)

Library won't play more than one song at a time

What gives? My iTunes suddenly won't play a sequence of songs. Not from the library as a whole, not from any playlist. The files are all still there and I can highlight and play any ONE, but iTunes won't then go on to the next. Tried 'select all', that didn't work either. What setting have I accidently changed? Just downloaded the newest iTunes just in case, but that didn't help. Still only 1 song at a time. Makes using iTunes as background pretty useless.

Are you saying that when you hit PAUSE the song doesn't stop playing?
If you want to jump to a different song while one is already playing, you don't need to hit pause/stop at all. Simply go to the song you want to here, double click it and the song that was playing will stop and the double clicked song will start. No need to use the Stop/Pause/Play type controls at all.

Playlists won't play more than one song at a time

Hi
I have setup some play lists, some play all the songs, others will only play one song then stop and I have to manually go to the next song. I don't understand and it's driving me mad! I read through some old posts on this and made sure that the check boxes next to my songs are ticked. I have also made sure that the shuffle & 'play playlist' icons are in blue. Is there anything else I can try? Please, please help!
Gemma

Besides the checkboxes next to songs, you might want to check the songs themselves with the Get Info command and make sure the "Skip When Shuffling" option it turned off. If your playlist is set to shuffle and your songs say skip when shuffling, then they won't play.
Also, are these new playlists? Or are they playlists that were ok before but now (after upgrading to iTunes 7.6?) act differently?
