  • Play/Pause Button no longer working

    I updated to iTuned version 11.1 so I could update my phone to iOS 7.  Now the Play/Pause button on my mac no longer works.  Not only that, but the same button on my external keyboard doesn't work as well. Even if iTunes is the window I am currently on, nothing.  Wondering if anyone else is having this problem.

    Didn't know this but just tested on my Apple TV v3-rA and pressing and holding play/pause does put it into sleep mode.
    Thanks for sharing that, it's not 5 seconds mind you, it only took 2-3 for me.

  • Play/pause button won't work

    Ipod Classic 80Gb
    Play/pause button won't work 9/10 times.
    Any idea on how to fix that?

    Besides resetting the iPod, have you attempted restoring it? You can do that by clicking the "Restore" button on the the iPod's Summary page in iTunes.
    Assuming that doesn't work, you can check your [warranty status|https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do] to see if you are still covered for hardware repair. I doubt any 30GB iPods are still under warranty, since they were discontinued over two years ago, but you said you got it in March 2009 - did you purchase it used?
    Whether it's under warranty or not, you can always make a Genius Bar appointment at your closest Apple Store and see if they have any other suggestions, free of charge. If it's a hardware problem, they can replace the iPod for you, but there would be a charge to do so if you're out of warranty.

  • I have a IPOD classic late 2009 160gb ... Only my play/pause buttons doesn't work ? Do I need to replace the click wheel ?

    May try DIY due to cost
    Just wondering if anyone's had this fixed how much it costs
    Or if it's another problem before I order parts

    I have found the solution for myself for the above.  I use a specific scripting program which is accessed by Control A. To pause it, you need to use Control B. not sure if this would work for any other application but it resolves my dilemma after hours of trying!

  • 30GB Play/Pause button won't work.

    Yes, another iPod Classic's play/pause button is messed up. I got it in March '09 so I believe that's over the 90 day fixing range. I've tried resetting, holding the menu & center button, & all of the suggestions on the Mac site, but it still won't work.
    Any ideas what could be wrong & how to fix it?

  • Universal dock remote control play/pause button doesn't work

    Hi all,
    Ok since updating to Ipod touch software v2.2 I have been unable to use the play/pause button on my Apple universal dock remote, whilst my iPod touch is in the dock.
    The volume controls and track next and previous buttons commands on the remote control work just fine.
    I have tried unpairing and then pairing the remote with the universal dock but same issue. I thought that maybe the play/pause key was possibly broken. However I tested the remote on my iMac and play/pause button works fine in front row.
    Any ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Strange thing is mine started working again last night and is still working. Seems the problem went away as it originally appeared. I hope it doesn't stop working.
    I will mark this thread as unanswered until we can figure why the remote, universal dock and iPod touch are behaving this way.

  • Play/Pause Button Captivate 3 not working properly

    I am using Captivate 3, but my play/pause button is not working properly. I can publish and upload to my LMS, but when I click the pause button the first time the mode changes but the project keeps playing. I have to click two more times and then it works. Can anyone offer any assistance? Thanks so much!

    Hello @Unit_27 ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    Thank you for the information about your keyboard! I'll see what I can do to help
    I think it would be a good idea to take apart the keyboard, or some of it, to determine if the keys are obstructed somehow. Some information on the supported method of cleaning the keyboard is mentioned in this document: Cleaning your Notebook PC
    If this does not resolve the issue, I would reinstall Windows on the computer. The issue at this point would be software related, to some unknown extent. A recovery will address any software issue. First, make sure you backup everything you need to. Here is some information on how to do this: Backing Up Your Files
    Once this is done, it is safe to reinstall the computer. Here is some additional information on how to do this properly: Performing an HP System Recovery
    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks and have a great day!

  • Captivate 2.0 Play/Pause button Not Working

    Hi,
    We are facing a problem in captivate 2.0 file. Due to some
    reason the play/pause button isn’t working in the captivate
    file. There are few links on a particular screen which goes to
    respective slides in the captivate file. Once the learner jumped on
    a respective screen then the Play/Pause button is not working. Even
    though I keep on clicking the Play/Pause button the Audio is not
    stopping, it keeps on playing. When we click thrice on the
    Play/Pause button, then the Audio stops.
    Could you please help me in resolving this issue?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Exact same thing is happening to mine. It's a conspiracy so we'll all have to buy a new piece of ipod tech. I've been happy with it so far, but now it is just like a pack of gum, but less chewy and no tasty goodness.

  • Center or in short Play/Pause button on iPod Shuffle 4th Generation Late 2012 is not working

    Does Apple replace my iPod Shuffle because the center or play/pause button is not working but all buttons are working except for the center button my iPod Shuffle is Silver and it has a scratches and a little dents and the back was pop up? what should i do help me does Apple replace it for free n warranty?
    and if it has a Apple Care protection plan for iPod will Apple replace it for free?

    If you did a Restore in iTunes, and it continues to have the problem, if it is covered under warranty or AppleCare, you should probably contact Apple tech support directly (not the users forum).  If you have an Apple Store nearby, a good way to do this is to make a reservation at the store's Genius Bar and take it there.  You don't have to have a reservation, but you can make one at the store's web page

    Do other devices now connect?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router

  • Mouse buttons no longer work for iTunes playback (play/pause, next, previous) after update! Help please!

    Mouse buttons no longer work for iTunes playback (play/pause, next, previous) after update! Help please!

    When you say "mouse button", do you mean clicking on the controls in the upper left of the iTunes window or do you mean that you have special media keys on your mouse?

  • Play/pause mouse button no longer works since update?

    I have a mouse with several buttons, one of which I customized to be "Play/Pause". This was great for iTunes -- if I was in Firefox or something, I could click it and immediately play/pause the song.
    However, with the new version of iTunes, this button no longer works, neither outside of iTunes nor inside. The button still works with other programs that it used to (eg, VLC), so it's specific to iTunes.
    My hopes aren't high, but is there any chance of solving this?

  • My menu button is working like the play/pause button

    What should I do? Restoring it didn't work when I did it with iTunes and I can't restore it on it's own because the menu button doesn't work properly.

    Hello DatCanadianGuy,
    It sounds like you are unable to use your Menu button as expected because it acts as if it were a play/pause button. I would try restarting the device first by holding the actual play/pause button down to see if that turns it off.
    If it does not, and you have done the restore per this article:
    How to restore your iPod:
    1. Make sure you've reinstalled the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Open iTunes, and then connect your iPod to your computer.
    3. After a few moments, it will appear in the source list in iTunes. If the iPod's display doesn't show "Connected" or "Do not disconnect" you may need to put the iPod into disk mode to proceed.
    4. Select your iPod in the source list and you will see information about it appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes windows.
    5. Click the Restore button. You will be prompted with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download of the latest iPod Software. The 4 possible restore options are:
    Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
    Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
    Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    Note: For Mac users, A message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator's name and password.
    6. A progress bar will appear on the computer screen indicating that the first stage of the restore process has started. When this stage is completed, iTunes will instruct you to leave iPod connected to your computer to complete restore.
    7. During the stage 2 of the restore process, the iPod will show an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remains connected to the computer or iPod Power adapter during this stage. Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see since the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    8. After stage 2 of the restore process is complete and the iPod is connected to the computer, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences similar to when you connected your iPod for the first time.
