Forwards and backwards buttons in Itunes 8 only skip through recent songs

I'm having a problem with Itunes 8 on Vista.
When I switch to traditional table view, and play a song, and click forwards/backwards button then it only goes forwards/backwards through songs in order of the most recently added to my itunes, not the order as shown on screen.
When i try this on a playlist, the forwards/backwards buttons don't do anything at all.
Makes it next to impossible to use to play albums, etc.
Shuffle is turned off, it's possible this started after I installed the genius thing, but it might have been broken from the start. New PC so new install of Itunes 8, no previous version installed.
Any clues?

Problem solved. Deauthorized PC, removed library, reinstalled, re-added library and reauthorized PC.

  • Forward and backward buttons for a player

    Hi all,
    this is rakesh. I am trying to make a media player in swings(using media API). But i am not getting functions for forwarding and rewinding a song. so can any one help me by giving any idea about how to write that function. Any idea that is useful for this functions.
    thanking u all
    Rakesh...

    If you are using CS4, there is a Command to create a Web Album... this does it automatically for you.
    Otherwise, you can create this manually.  Say you have 3 pages,
    page1.html  (is the index page of the album)
    page2.html
    page3.html
    Therefore, using ordinary text links
    Home would link to page1.html
    Previous would link to page3.html
    Next would link to page2.html
    You would need to make adjustments naturally to each page as you move along with the gallery pages, changing the previous and the next links as needed.  Below is a a basic example of setting up the links in a simple table structure.  You would also then style the table layout as you see fit - yes, using css preferably  :-)
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td><h2>MY GALLERY OF PHOTOS</h2>
    <a href="page3.html">Previous</a> | <a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="page2.html">Next</a>
    </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <br>
    <a href="../images/img_2401_jpg.jpg"><img src="../images/img_2401_jpg.jpg" border=0></a><br>
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    Here's an article on creating an album using the DW Command I mentioned earlier. You could create the album and then copy and paste the code into a current page if you've already designed on.,... not too difficult, I just tested it.  You do however, need to have Fireworks to process the images.

    You could also check out the Lightbox effect which is very popular:
    http://www.lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/
    Or do a google search for 'jquery'.  There are different album effects using that framework as well.
    Hope some of this helps  :-)

    Hi,
    If you want a method that works everywhere, the best solutions for this is probably "Deep Linking", add-ons like SWFAddress (asual.com). This is mainly for SEO purposes, but at the same time it makes the back and forward buttons works.

  • Why are the forward and backward buttons so close to the play/pause button on the lock screen?

    The quickest way to control the playing of music or podcasts is on the lock screen after double tapping the button. The controls for forward, rewind and play/pause are way too close together. There seems to be no logical reason for having them so close when there is room on the screen. Is there a way of moving these buttons?

    No.  But tell apple about your concern http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Forward and backwards buttons?

    I want to be able to let my arrows at the top work as "next
    image" and "previous image" buttons. Cant figure out where to put
    my code to make this?
    Check it out here!
    And a bonus; I want to put my functions inside the
    startLoad() function outside this so it doesn't repeat, any good
    ideas on this?

    Just tap the screen - it should re-appear.

  • My pause forward and backwards button wont work. Are there any handicaps that i can use with the middle button?

    My buttons dont work and i wanted to know if there are any substitues that i can use with the home button.

    Nope, it either needs to be plugged in or turned on with the power button.

  • Forward and Back Buttons Don't Work

    Greetings,
    My forward and back buttons on the mouse don't work in PSE 7. Instead I always have to click the forward or back buttons on the toolbar, or use keyboard shortcuts (alt+left arrow or alt+right arrow).
    Does anyone else have the same problem?
    Thanks,
    Shane.

    This is working for me. The forward and backward buttons on the toolbar would work only with pressing of Alt button i.e. Alt+Left arrow.
    Suppose you are in Single image view, and press left and right arrow keys, application would switch to previous and next photo respectively.
    Please let me know if you have other concern.

  • Apple TV update 5.1 broke chapter forward and back buttons.

    Ever since updating to Apple TV software 5.1 (iOS 6), the chapter forward and backwards buttons just make the video stop playing and go to the movie/episode selection screen.  Is anyone else having this problem?

    Boy I am glad I found this thread. I am having this exact same issue with my Harmony Remote and Apple TV after the latest update. I thought my Harmony Remote was broken since the Apple Remote still functions correctly. Specifically, the chapter forward and backwards buttons do not work correctly, they skip the song back a few seconds. Or, if at the beginning of a song, they skip backwards to a seemingly random track on the album. Thanks to this thread, I submitted a bug report at http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html. Hopefully they will send out an update to fix this. I thought I had dropped my Harmony one too many times on the floor and it finally sketched out. Whew

  • In Firefox 3.6.10 I was able to go forward and backwards between pages without the page defaulting to the top of the page. Is there any way to prevent the page from automatically moving to the top when using the forwards and back buttons in Firefox Four?

    I like to be able to navigate backwards and forwards without having to scroll down and find where I was previously. In Firefox Four, when using the forwards and back buttons, the page will automatically return to the top of the page. Is there any way to change this setting in Firefox Four to prevent it from doing that?

    Thanks for the response. No Time Machine, but I probably have a backup from a few months ago on an external hard drive. :/ I guess it'd have useful history, but not if it overwrote the last 3 months or so of Awesome Bar, that might not be so great.

  • Is there a way to use the common J-K-L keystrokes to play forward and backward in iMovie '11?

    Is there a way to use the common J-K-L keystrokes to play forward and backward in iMovie '11? Most editing apps--like Final Cut Pro, QuickTime Pro, Avid, etc.--use this convention.

  • How to change the style of icons used on the tool bars mainly the forward and backwards arrows

    Hi .
    There always used to be a way of changing the look of firefox the arrowws ect at the moment i have just outline type arrows for forwards and backwards i would far rather have the older Green arrows far easier to see and look far better how do i cange this now
    This is on Firefox 9.0.1 64 bit on Arch Linux current

    Ok well this has only recently happened that the arrows have gone to these horrible outline things i use themes and personas but this is a new effect so looks like ity is down to canning either themes or personas because those arrows are to put it politely disgusting

  • HT3775 I just upgraded my ipad to 6.0.  I can no longer expand my audio files so that I can move forwards and backwards.  I used to get a diagonal arrow to enlarge the screen and then have a bar that I can move to navigate. Can you help?

    I just upgraded my ipad to 6.0.  I can no longer expand my audio files so that I can move forwards and backwards.  I used to get a diagonal arrow to enlarge the screen and then have a bar that I can move to navigate. Can you help?

    Hi James,
    I am listening to embedded training files on the Quick Time player (I think). They cannot be copied to protect the information.  You only have the option of listening.   I used to be able to click on the Q in the audio strip and it would provide a diagonal arrow and this would allow me to expand the bar to a full screen. I then had the bar which would allow me to navigate in case I wanted to listen again or in case I wanted to move forward.  After my upgrade, I can no longer expand the strip to a full screen with the adjuster.  Now I have not chance to take a break in listening to these audios and most of them are at least an hour long.  Thanks for your help.

  • Rolling start point of an effect forward and backwards?

    I downloaded a series of effects plug-ins that I've laid in my timeline. However, I want to change the point at which certain elements within the effect occur. Is there a way to roll the effect forward and backwards within the video beyond where the elements just happen to occur when you drag and drop it into the clip?
    The effects I'm working with are "static glitches" and create random occurring distortions. When I lay one in, I sometimes feel that a certain distortion would look better if the whole, pre-designed effect shifted back half a second for instance, but I can't figure out how to do that... Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply! Is the only way of doing this by splitting the clip? One of the things I specifically need to do is have a distortion that happens later in the effect happen at the beginning of the clip. For instance, I like the distortion that happens three seconds into the effect but the clip itself is only two seconds long. Maybe I could extend the head of clip in another timeline so that it falls on the part of the footage later on that I want and create a compound clip that I then import into my timeline and trim to the appropriate length... but this seems so complicated for and roundabout for a function I feel like FCP X should have but that I'm just not seeing..??

  • Forward and Backward arrows

    I have been reading posts about creating browse sequences but
    alas still am not sure how to get the forward and backward arrows
    to appear.
    I don't want to create a browse sequence as my topics don't
    need to follow a particular order, i just want it to function like
    a regular browser does.
    Any insight on how to do this? thanks

    Hi Anna
    You might wish to review the following:
