How can I bookmark, in iTunes, so that the songs I play and then stop in middle of song then come back later - it will start where I left off. What is the switch in iTunes to make this happen? Thank You

In iTunes I would like to set it to bookmark where I am holding in a song on my iPOD. Let's say I want to play a song that I listen to yesterday and stopped playing it in the middle on my iPOD. Today, I want to listen, on my iPOD, to the same song and have it start playing where I left off yesterday.
Can someone please tell me what I have to do in iTUNES to have this feature on my iPOD?
Thank You

iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first. Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one? The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless). To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes. To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
Realize what you are talking about is not "backup". Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod. I mostly listen to audio bks, not a lot of music. Often, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, therefore I don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hr book. How can I get MMI to start where I left off?

I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod pluggedinto the MMI. I mostly listen to audio books, not a lot ofmusic. The books are 4-6 hours long, vs 4-6minutes with a song. Often, but not always, when I start my A6, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, thereforeI don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hour book. How can I get the interface to stay stopped where I left off? I have gone into iTunes and placed my current book as the first "song" on my iPod for ease of finding it, but often the MMI starts it over at the beginning. Thank you if anyone has any experience with this. My dealer in San Rafael, CA says they've never heard of this issue.

I think my iPod, which is an iPod touch 3rd generation , which is a lot different from a nano, which really makes it almost impossible for me to help you, which is why I suggested that you post your question in the iPod nano community. Your first post says that your product is an iPod nano. I think the people who answer those questions would be most likely to help you. If yours isn't a nano then you can pick the right community from here. This community is really to answer questions about this forum, or issues that don't fit anywhere else.

I have Ipod nano 3rd generation that I use to listen to audiobooks in my car. I turn the ipod off when I get out of the car and when I restart the ipod, it doesn't start where I left off. Any suggestions

I recently received an Ipod nano 3rd generation, which I use to listen to audiobook in my car. Every time I leave the car, I stop the Ipod and take it with me. When I return to the car and start up the Ipod, it does not pick up where I left off in the book. Any suggestions?

It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
However.. it's not Logic related.

I have a Ipad 3 and the numbers of emails does'nt delete how can I delete them it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any

I have a Ipad3, it is impossible to delete the numbers of emails, it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any so how can I delete the number

These could be older unread messages and they may be buried in sub-folders. Your best bet is to go to your email web interface on a computer and search for unread emails there.

HT204053 I am looking at purchasing an iphone and we have a ipad and ipod at home all under the same apple id. I would like my daughter to have a seperate id then myself for signing in for itunes, etc...what do I need to do to make this happen.

I am looking at purchasing an iphone and have an my daughter has an ipad at home and I want to have seperate apple ids when we use them and download and such.. What do I need to do?

If you want her to have a new iTunes account then there are instructions on this page for how to create one : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
Or if you don't want to give credit card details then follow the instructions on this page when creating the account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
You can then use that account on the phone (Settings > iTunes & App Store for the stores, Settings > iCloud etc)
All of your downloads from your existing account will remain tied to that account. If you want to use the same computer for syncing then you can do do, you can have more than one account authorised on a computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer menu option), but only one account can be logged in for purchasing/downloading. But if you use iTunes Match, automatic downloads or redownload an account's past purchases then you may tie that computer to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - so you won't be able to do any of those three things on a different account until the 90 days have completed (it shouldn't affect being able to make new purchases)

How do I make Mac remember where I left off a TV Show on my Apple TV?

I have Lion OS and iOS5 on my iDevices. Still when I watch a TV show from my Apple TV, and then resume on my Mac, the Mac doesn't know where I left off the TV show. Nor does Mac mark a TV show as watched if I have already seen it on Apple TV.
Is there a way to remember where I left off in a TV show across devices?

I'd think ..... it will by default remember the playback poition on my Mac anyway. Or am I missing something?
That's not generally what happens when you open most other documents, by default you are taken back to the begriming or first page, obviously it's something you might want to do with a movie so iTunes includes this option (although yes it's set by default). many other movie applications don't remember where you left off.
>>> OK, but just to be sure, Apple is not really leveraging iCloud in this case, which is unfortunate (See more below).
Second, does it mean that if I download the TV Show on iPad, it will remember the position there as well? Or will it start from the beginning only?
If you stream the movie from the iTunes Library on your mac to your iPad it will remember the position,
>> How does one "stream" a movie from Mac to iPad? Streaming is only done to an Apple TV as far as I know
but if you play it from a file on the iPad (i.e. downloaded or synced) then it's essentially another file on another device and that device will have no idea where you left off in another file on your mac.
>> Ok for the downloaded case. But in the case of synced, actually it does remember where I left off, doesn't it?
>> What I am a bit baffled by is why Apple couldn't sync media playback position via iCloud. So, I watch a TV show on my Mac (or Apple TV), and it just syncs playback position periodically to iCloud and then to all devices, so that I can pick up on any device. Say I am leaving the house and now want to switch to iPad from Apple TV, iPad will remember where I left off.

My PC with iTunes on it got fried (lightning). I have a 2nd PC with iTunes on it. How can I move my devices to that iTunes (I have recovered data from the drive)

I had a primary PC that had iTunes on it that got fried by lightning strike a few months ago. I have several devices (1 iPod, 1 iPad, 3 iPhones) that were synched with that iTunes install. I had a secondary PC with a separate iTunes installation on it (separate music library.) I recovered the hard drive so I can move the music to the secondary PC, but how can I sync my devices with that 2nd installation of iTunes without losing all of the information on those devices? (I haven't saved or synched those devices since the summer.) Can I keep the playlists from from the first PC?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Sorted it out.

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?

How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing? As it goes now, one clicks on the song in the new playlist where the arrow is and then chooses 'Play Song Next.' So, it plays next, but then the song after that is back in the old playlist. I want to use iTunes smoothly without the extra clicks I've had to do in order to get the playlist to continue. This is music for background while I play the violin at restaurants, and extra clicks and hassle is quite unappreciated, especailly since it worked fine in the previous iTunes.
Thanks.

At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

My iMac is authorised to play iTunes content, but my Apple TV keeps asking for me to authorise. I am unable to view content from my iTunes Library. How can I convince my Apple TV that I am authorised?

I am not exactly sure what you mean by "authorised", but I am experiencing a similar problem...or the same, in that Apple TV keeps telling me to enable home sharing in my MacBook Pro. It does not seem to recognize that home sharing is already enabled on my Laptop.
Is home sharing and "authorised" one in the same? It used to work just fine before these recent Apple TV updates.

How can I store my music files on an external hard drive and listen to them through iTunes that way?

How can I store my music files on an external hard drive and listen to them through iTunes that way? At the moment they're both on the external hard drive and also stored on the computer but I'm quickly running out of memory on my iBook G4 so I'd like to only keep them on the external hard drive and, if possible, delete them from my computer's hard drive. At the moment, when the hard drive isn't plugged in a lot of the files won't play and I get the exclamation mark next to the particular song in iTunes, but everything plays fine when the hard drive is plugged in.
Thank you.

Sounds like your files are playing from the external drive already. To check go to iTunes - Preferences - Advanced and check the Media Folder Location. Change it to the external drive if you need to.

Framemaker uses $filename for short file name, can we edit this to change appearance? We do not want the short file name of long filename to include the .fm extension can this be removed or modified to make this happen?

In compiling our books it would be helpful to not have this extension appear as it then requires us to create extra files without them.

In System Preferences > Mission Control, uncheck mark Displays have seperate windows. This should bring you back to the secondary display you had before the upgrade. You may have to open Mail, the first time and place it on your secondary display. You also won't have the advantages of the dock and menus on the secondary display.
I keep my own secondary display with these settings because I need the ability to expand a window across both displays.
