How Can I Stop (Not Pause) Music?

When using my iPod Touch I usually just put it to sleep rather than power it down.
But when I play music I often come back to find my iPod blasting away. I pause the music and sleep the iPod but obviously the "pause" has run out and the music starts to play again.
If I want to "stop the music" is there a way short of turning the iPod off?

The pause should not "run out". Something may be amiss if this is happening.
If you want to totally stop the music you can terminate the iPod App by using the "recently used" Apps tray which is accessed by double-clicking the home button. Press and hold an App icon for a couple of seconds and a "minus sign" will appear at the upper left corner of the icons. Touching the minus sign will remove that App.

How can I stop (not pause) music "now playing?"

After playing a song on iPhone 5 IOS7, I can only "pause" it and not "stop" it. This is a problem because when I connect to my car's bluetooth audio system, it says bluetooth audio is paused, and Maps won't speak directions through the car audio system.
Now if I resume playing the song, Maps will lower the song volume and speak directions through the car audio system, but I don't want to have to listen to music just so Maps will speak directions through the bluetooth systems.
I consider this a serious bug. And if there is a way to stop the music then its not intuitive. I've tried everything including reboot, hard reset, double clicking home button and swiping away the music app all to no avail.

I started downloading an update without knowing how big the file was and when I found out how big it was decided I didn't want it because I probably won't use it. how do I stop, not pause, the download and remove the file?

I started downloading an update for iphoto and imovie without realizing how big the file was and I really don't want these updates because I probably won't use them. I've paused the updates but don't know how to cancel them. Please let me know how to do so.

Hide the purchase in your account and there should be nothing more from it.

Hi when I import files to my I Tunes they always go into playlistds, how can I stop this and how can I transfer them to my library?

how can I stop my imported music from going into playlists? and how can I transfer playlists to my library?

Imported files will go into any smart playlists that they qualify for. If new playlists are being created as you import folders then the folders contain m3u playolist files made by another application and iTunes is importing those too. You can search for and delete these before import, use http://albumbrowser.klarita.net/itfw.html instead of iTunes' Files > Add folder or use my script KillTopLevelPlaylists after the import.

How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

How can I stop iPhone mirroring when it's not activated on AirPlay settings and I'm streaming music?

I'm streaming Soundcloud from iPhone 6 plus and when I'm browsing other apps like photos the mirroring function automatically activates on my tv.
How can I stop this?
Mirroring is not activated on my phone.
Thanks

'''Scan for Malware'''
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try some of the following programs to scan for malware:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] (A good permanent anti-virus if you don't already have one)
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.
'''Update Firefox'''
[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
'''Reset Firefox'''
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

Question
better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
Details

As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
Any luck?

How can I stop Firefox from opening (to "File Not Found") when opening my Opera browser?

Ever since I installed Opera 10.61 on my new computer (Windows 7 Ultimate operating system), whenever I open Opera, Firefox opens one second later with the following error message:
'''File not found '''
Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Users/Nasheed/AppData/Local/Opera/Opera/temporary_downloads/client-en.xml.
* Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
* Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
TRY AGAIN.

This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE OPERA BROWSER. How can I stop this from happening? I'm stumped.
[EXTRA INFO - I was unable to enable Firefox to access my previous profile on the new computer (despite putting the old profile in the appropriate Mozilla Firefox folder. So, there are now two profiles in that location.
After reading the answer to another forum member's question, I attempted to resolve the problem using Profile Manager, but I was unable to locate the Profile Manager. The Windows "Search" feature is not enabled on my new computer (nor can it be enabled from the Customize Start Menu options).]

Thank you for your response, Cor-el.
I had Opera set as my default browser since this began happening. I changed my default browser back to Firefox mainly because having Firefox open one or two seconds every time I open Opera was/is such a nuisance.
I believe this problem began because I attempted to manually transfer the files from my old computer to the new one (via the backed up files in my external drive). I was unfamiliar with Windows 7 when I did this. Microsoft changed the file set up from what I had been used to in Windows XP. I used XP for six years before being exposed to Windows 7 (I never had Vista).
I'm almost sure this problem has something to do with where I placed the application data when I was trying to reestablish the program set up on the new computer.

I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

How can I stop Firefox from automatically upgrading? My on-line college is not compatible with the upgraded version. I have to keep uninstalling the new one and reinstalling the old one.

It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

HT201269 Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time. As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts. How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account

Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time. As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts. How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?

Yes.
On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs.

I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening?

I have an iphone 4 that keeps deleting my notes. How can I stop this from happening? I've had my phone over 2 years and only in the past 2 months has it started deleting notes. Now they are all deleted, but thankfully still in my email, but only on a computer.

I guess he/she open Notes in Gmail settings. This archives (one way sync) notes in gmail account under notes label that is invisible if you are using the standard gmail setup on your iPhone. You can see it on desktop browser, Safari or gmail app in iDevice. Am I wrong?
Sorry for bad English.
