Home page safari shortcut fails to play music when minimized

I made a homepage shortcut to safari (music.google.com) which stops playing music when minimized. If I launch safari directly and navigate to music.google.com music continues to play when minimized. Symptoms are identical IOS5 & IOS5.01.  Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any guidance

I accessed the GarageBand site and not being sure how one would play an audio loop there, I clicked the little green arrow next to "Rational Eyes" near the top. This put up a little black window that said "MP3 Player (GarageBand.com)" with a line of text that said "Report problems by clicking the 'HELP' button above.", but there was no help button other than the item on the tool bar of the site window. There was no sound.

    Whenever I open the iTunes store, the home pages of all of the sections (Music, App Store etc.) are BLACK.  They still have clickable hyperlinks, but I can't see what I'm clicking.  Any pagess accessed through the drop-down menus (even iHelp) or by randomly clicking I can't see.

    Thanks but it's just my desktop that doesn't see it though.  My notebook sees it everytime, even at the same exact time that my desktop doesn't see it.  For example yesterday when I was typing up this post, I was typing up the post on my notebook because my desktop didn't see the router.  I don't think it has anything to do with the router actually, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has encountered this issue before.  Other forums have similar issues but I've tried all of the fixes I found elsewhere and they didn't work.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks!

  • How do I configure my bluetooth on my iPod Touch 4G to automatically play music when connected and to connect as media not a phone?

    Is there any way to have my iPod Touch automatically start playing music when it connects to my car stereo via Bluetooth?
    Also, I would like the option to connect to my car stereo as media only and not as a phone. My car stereo supports the ability to connect to a phone via Bluetooth simultaneously with another device such as my iPod Touch as a media source. The problem is that if my iPod Touch connects first it will force out my phone from connecting via Bluetooth since it connects as a phone as well as media. I have been able to make this whole setup work by turning both my phone's Bluetooth off and my iPod Touch's Bluetooth off. Then turning my phone's Bluetooth on first and allowing it to connect. Then changing the Bluetooth option on my phone to only connect as phone. Then turning my iPod Touch's Bluetooth on and that works just fine. Both devices respond perfectly but for that to work I have to do that process everytime I get into my car. Is there anyway to set this up so I don't have to go through all of this hassle?
    Btw my iPod Touch has been updated to version 4.3.5.
    Any suggestion, comments, or concerns would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Jon

    If you store itunes andn iphoto library on the TC you could be in trouble. The TC has no auto backup mechanism.. it is simply unable to work as a true NAS. It has no media servers. It is slow.. it is very easy to corrupt libraries especially in connection over wireless. In general we recommend people do not do this.
    If you go ahead anyway.. apple have specific instructions for moving the libraries.. do follow it.
    I am not sure if the SONOS can play directly from itunes library or has to use an itunes server.. remember the TC is a dumb as a board router with no media servers. Apple TV also need an active itunes to work AFAIK.. you cannot play files.. unless you JB the ATV.
    Also be careful as SONOS does not like apple names.. use all SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
    Finally yes,.. at last .. you can extend the wireless in the TC using another apple router.. you cannot extend wireless using any other brand.

  • I cannot play music when connect to stereo via 30-pin connector. Help?

    Since I first upgraded my iPod Touch 2nd Gen to iOS 4.x, I cannot play music when connect to external speakers via the 30-pin connector. I've tried several different speaker systems, but none work. My iPod freezes after making my song selection and doesn't do anything until after rebooting. Even then, it just goes through the same cycle if I select another song. My iPod is 100% functional until I try to plug it in to an external speaker system.
    Keep in mind that it worked up until iOS 3.1.3.

    Sounds like iOS 4 broke the compatibility with your accessory, something that sometimes happens with major OS changes. Your only hope is to see if the accessory manufacturer has an update to make it compatible with iOS 4, or downgrade your Touch back to 3.1.3.

  • Doesn't play music when docked

    My iPhone 4 does not play music when docked on any type of docking station or when I plug it into my iTrip in my car. It still charges just fine, but immediately stops playing music when plugged in. When it is plugged into external speakers, it stops playing on its own speakers as well.
    I also have an unrelated problem that came up yesterday: my phone's power button is jammed up. I cannot even push it anymore. This is my 3rd iPhone in less than a year that has had this problem. I don't think I push the button very hard at all, not anymore than anyone else. What makes this happen, and can I get it fixed without paying out the *** and without taking it apart myself? I got my phone from Best Buy as I don't have an Apple store within 150 miles of me. I am currently using AssistiveTouch instead, which is just plain annoying. Please help with either problem if you can!

    Recently, I have the same problem but with my B&W Zeppelin, and it turned out it was the problem of B&W and has sent it for service.

  • My iphone starts playing music when I'm not even touching the phone

    My iphone 4 starts playing music when the phone is in my purse and I'm not touching it or even going through my purse. I've tried making sure the ipod is not set to a song but rather to a menu screen when I close it. Sometimes I haven't even used the ipod recently. My phone also calls people when I'm not touching it. Does anyone else have this problem? It must be something I'm doing but I can't figure out what it could be. I'd appreciate any help!

    Mine plays music when I have the iPhone 4 in my pocket and bend over a little, I know that kinda 'scrunches' the phone slightly but no other iPhone I've had ever did this and I've treated them all the same. I'll be walking along, pick up something and then the music starts playing. I don't touch anything, never attach headphones, basically the phone is asleep but somehow something triggers the music to start playing. I've entered this as a separate thread but no one seems to know why this happens. I suppose I could take the phone back and exchange it for a new one, but it would be better to know what is causing this.

  • Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

    I did not hear them state the feature requirements directly in the streaming even but there are statements on the Apple website that clearly say that an iPhone is necessary.  I'm guessing that other than Bluetooth for pairing with the iPhone, it's just not technically possible to fit any other radios such as WiFi or LTE into that form factor or battery capacity.  I don't even remember them mentioning if it had a speaker or could pair directly with bluetooth headphones.
    While I'm hoping that the watch has a reasonable stand-alone feature set, they didn't make it clear what exactly it can and can't do without an iPhone nearby.  I also hope that they communicate this better in the coming days.

  • ITunes fails to play music!

    iTunes won't play music from any of my playlists, my Library, or the Music Store. The songs play on my ipods though. I would absolutely love some help. Again the music won't play on my playlists, library, or music store.

    What happens when you double click on a song?

  • Why does my iPhone 4s start playing music when I connect to a bluetooth unit?

    I have recently bought a new 4s and have attempted to use it with my Automedia handsfree bluetooth unit in the car. The phone worked fine with my previous (Android) phone, but whenever I receive a call on the 4s it starts playing music through the bluetooth unit as well as the telephone conversation. This does not happen when I make a call. Any suggestions on how I can stop the music playing? (The phone wont let me swap to the music player to put the music on hold either.) Any help greatly appreciated as this is really annoying.

    I considered that too, but when I double clicked the home button to show what apps were running, there was nothing there. I just don't understand how anything would have opened because I hadn't touched my phone in several minutes.

  • My iPod Touch 4G will only play music when attached to headphones

    When I attach my headphones to my ipod touch 4G, it will play music normally, but when I remove, it will not play through the speakers, nor am I able to control the volume as the volume bar will disappear and the external buttons will not work.
    Please help me, thank you.

    You can try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPOd.
    If still problems you have a defective headphone jack that requires replacment,. Here is one third-party place. Google for other:

  • Phone running slower, cant play music when I swipe the screan up and it shows the player. the play button nothing works.

    Since this update:
    Phone running slow
    Phone gets stuck or freezes
    used to be able to double click home button to play music (no longer) now I have to swipe upwords to get player on screen. When I hit play button and nothing...
    Battery seems to run low faster

    I should mention that I also did a restore hoping that would solve the problem but it did not, and it was after this that I lost some of my music. 

  • When I set my home page and restart Firefox, it reverts to iMesh, an inadequate search engine. How do I get it to retain the home page I set? I said yes when it asked.

    I go to Google, drag it to the home page icon and then acknowledge by clicking yes. When I restart Frfirefox it goes back to imesh.

  • How do I keep a page as my home page when dragging icon to left of URL to house image & confirming that I want it as home page works only for current session, so when Firefox next opened, I end up with some stupid search page which McAfee doesn't like?

    A couple of days ago, I connected to the Internet as usual & opened Firefox, only to be greeted by an almost blank screen with a Google-type search box in the middle & this message from McAfee:
    "Your default search settings have changed. This may pose a security risk. Would you like to restore them to McAfee Secure Search to provide a safer searching experience?"
    instead of my usual home page (BT Yahoo). I naturally clicked on the "Yes" option in the message, but rather than restoring my BT Yahoo home page, all that did was to insert the McAfee logo to the left of the search box in the top right-hand corner of the screen. The first time it happened, I had to search for the BT Yahoo page & then followed the standard procedure for setting it again as my home page. It worked only for that session: each time I shut down Firefox or restarted my computer after that, all I got was the blank "search page" & restoring the previous session was the only way to get back to BY Yahoo. How on earth do I make the home page setting permanent?
    As far as I'm aware, I have done nothing to alter my search settings. However, I am anything but computer-literate, so I may have done/pressed something without realising it, but trying to understand what is now happening is far beyond my limited IT skills.

    See McAfee support to find out how to disable that McAfee feature - that isn't part of the normal Firefox installation.

  • My home page is google and it works but when I open a new tab it displays an error message :Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.ht

    Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.html.
    of course the last dot is not the url anymore but the end of the sentence for the error message, but i don't ever use chrome ever on my laptop only my cell so what is going on????? help fix god please!!!!!!

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
