Can you tell me why we play only one song at a time and stop now???????

OK....I will try to stop seething and write clearly. DL'd ITunes V8.0 which ran great for about a week. Now when I try to play from Music library it will play the first song then stop. If I try to advance using the forward button it stops playing as well. This only happens in the Music Library. Playlists function as normal. Please tell me this isn't another Apple "Enhancement". Ugh.

Are the little checkboxes to the left of name ticked? If not iTunes will not advance to the next track as iTunes skips unchecked tracks.
To check all, press ctrl & click in one of the little boxes or use select all, then right click in the selection and choose check all.
Usually this affects both the music library and playlists so I am not sure about it.

  • IPhone plays only one song at a time

    After 2 weeks of the iPod feature of my iPhone working just perfectly, last night I discovered it will no longer go through a play list. No matter what I do, it plays only one song, repeatedly - either a song I choose or a song selected randomly by hitting Shuffle. Shuffle only chooses the first song randomly, after which that song plays over and over unless I manually choose another. I deleted my playlists this morning, rebooted iTunes, re-synced my playlists to the iPhone, same problem. Other than having to go through an entire Restore, are there any other options? This actually occurred out of the blue, NOT after a re-sync with the computer, therefore NOT caused by the iTunes update to 7.3.1.

    THANK YOU!!! I never would have found that myself because I don't even look at albums let alone play whole albums. My playlists are favorite songs from here and there and rarely more than one or two from any particular album. I don't know how that got changed since I have never looked at an album before, didn't know there were time and shuffle markers. I must have gone bump in the dark... so thank you again!

  • How can I get my iPad to play just one song from my playlist and then stop automatically?

    I am a music teacher and I use the iPod on my iPad to play songs in class.  I have a long playlist of songs to choose from in each class, and I want to play just one song at a time.  I want to be able to start one song from my playlist and then walk away from my iPad and have it stop automatically when that song is over.  (I know how to make it repeat the same song over and over, but tha'ts not what I need.  I also know how to push "pause," but I don't want to have to walk away from the children to do it.) How can I make it play one song from a playlist at a time?

    I don't believe that there is a way to do that except, perhaps, creating a separate Playlist for each song.

  • Media Player Problem playing only one song at a time

    Recently acquired a BB Curve 8330 (OS 4.5.0.127) running on a Bell Enterprise server.  I bought a SanDisk 16G Media Card.  The card is formatted, the songs are there (about 20 albums)  I can view, scroll, choose shuffle, choose an album, choose a artist or any other option.  No matter what I try, it will only play one song at a time.  Once the song plays, it just stops and stays at the end of the song.  Periodically, the entire device will shut down and restart.  I saw somewhere else in the forum to pull the battery, wait 1-2 minutes, didn't work.  There was also a post to try to downgrade the software from 4.5.0.127, but really, is that necessary?
    Is there a fix, patch, upgrade, or other I can try rather than going backwards?
    Please help.  Really frustrating.

    I was having the same problem.  I found out the CD's that I ripped were not in MP3 format they were in windows media audio format.  I was able to load them to my phone and they would play one at a time or when a song got to the end it would restart my phone.  Replaced WMA files with MP3 files and it fixed the problem. Hope this helps.

  • Playing only one song at a time

    I know this is unusual, but is it possible to only play one song at a time on an iPod?

  • My Music app in Suffle Mode plays only 2 songs of any playlist and stops

    This problem starts after updating to iOS 5. In Continuos Mode all the songs of my differents playlist plays correctly.
    Only in Suffle Mode it plays 2 or 3 songs and freezes and the forward and backward buttons doesn´t works.
    I have to restart de app to start listening the songs, but only in continuos mode.

    Do you have disk use enabled? If so, maybe too much space is allocated to disk use. Check this in iTunes when the iPod is connected by clicking on the settings tab. If you are not using the iPod as a storage device you can turn this option off.

  • I use i-tunes for backing tracks with an acoustic band...how can I get a playlist to play one song at a time and not go to the next one until I manually select it?

    I use i-tunes for backing tracks. How can I set up a play list to play only one song at a time and not go to the next one until I manually select it?

    Uncheck all the songs in the playlist. iTunes will then play one song and stop.
    Regards.

  • Playing Only One Song

    How do I play only one song on my iPod, then stop without automatically going to the next song? I can't find a setting and not sure how to do it.
    I play in a small band and have loaded recorded audio backing tracks into the iPod. I want to be able to play the song (i.e., backing track), then stop when it is finished without automatically going to the next song.

    Thanks. I knew I could create a playlist with one song in it. However, when on stage that will take too much time between playing individual songs. Unless, I set up a single song playlist for each song, of which there are hundreds that we do.
    I was hoping I could find a setting that would allow me to play a single song directly from the Library.

  • Can you tell me why none of my music will play I had a little box that came up saying all your items are ticked so they will not play on itunes what does this mean it's driving me nuts help!!!

    HI there can you tell me why none of my music will play on itunes it just displays a message saying it cannot be located please help it is driving me nuts

    About 5 days ago for no apparent reason at all, about
    7000 songs which i have collected over a number of
    years has just decided that it wont play in ITUNES or
    in any other of my media players. When you click on
    Play over a song nothing happens. The play icon
    doesnt even come up on the screen.
    Steps I have taken so far are:
    1 - Remove all tracks from ITUNES and then re-add the
    folder where all the songs are. This has obviously
    removed all songs, but when I have re-added the
    folder , it has added about 650 tracks back on to the
    playlist. These 650 tracks will play. This leaves
    approx 6400 tracks that it wont play.
    By the way all the songs on my PC are MP3 type and I
    have had no problem playing any of them until last
    week.
    2 - I have re-installed ITUNES and reinstalled
    Quicktime and that has not worked.
    3 - All of my songs are backed up on to a External
    Hard Drive. I have tried to restore the songs and
    also play them directly from the external hard drive.
    I get the same problem when I do this.
    4 - I have enabled and allowed all permissions for
    the account that I am running the PC from.
    I am guessing there must be some settnig or Registry
    Key that is blocking me playing the tracks from the
    PC. I have also tried to launch the songs in Media
    Player and Sonic stage but thsi has not played
    either.
    All the tracks are in the folder structure as they
    were before so I know they are there. I just need to
    somehow unlock them.......
    If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful as
    I dont want to lose my entire music collection.
    Also I cannot find anyweher on here that is a Support
    number or email address for Apple as this is an
    ITUNES issue and they should be resolving it for
    me!!!!
    Thanks

  • HT4101 can you tell me why my 64gb sanddisk card can not be read by my ipad ?

    can you tell me why my 64gb sanddisk card can not be read by my ipad ?

    I assume that it's an SD card of some sort ? If it's an SDXC card then how is it formatted - from the page that you posted from :
    Here are the supported SD cards and image-transfer protocols:
    Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP)
    Mass Storage Device protocol
    SDSC
    SDHC
    miniSD
    microSD
    MMC
    SDXC (supported only when not formatted as ExFAT)
    If it's not formatted as ExFAT then how did the photos get onto the card ? If you copied them onto it yourself then you need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them

  • Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

    Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

    You question is garbled. Are you saying your iPad cannot connect to a laptop with Snow Leopard? Restart your computer. Start iTunes and check for updates. If there are any updates to itunes download and install it. Then restart your computer and start iTunes.
    Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
    Finally connect your iPad to your computer. Use a USB on your computer that is not on the keyboard or connected to a hub.
    If you do these things and it still doesn't show up in iTunes on your computer report back here and explain clearly just what happened.

  • Hello. When i'm trying to change my background, it just all freeze. Can you tell me why?

    When i'm trying to change my background, it just all freeze. I had tryed to turn the computer off, and it still just freeze in the background setting. Can you tell me why?

    Hello Wyodor,
    thanks for your reply on my question.
    You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
    And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
    Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
    No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
    and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
    But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)
    greetings Lasource

  • Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    If you uncheck all of the songs, they will only play if explicitly commanded. Command-click in a checkbox and they will all be unchecked. Command-clicking again will check the all again should you want to do that.
