How do I get iTunes to keep playing (radio) when I am not using the compute

How do I get iTunes to keep playing - radio or CD - when the computer is otherwise idle? It cuts off after about 5 minutes and goes into sleep mode. thanks,
Vlasta

Hey vlasta4444,
It sounds like you'll want to change the time it takes for the computer to goto sleep from System Preferences> Energy Saver.

I have the latest version. Ever since I installed it, it keeps crashing for no aparent reason, even when I'm not using the computer.

Often, when I return to the computer after a break, Firefox has gone. Other times, it fails when I'm loading something else, e.g. Skype, but not every time. This has only happened since I upgraded.

A second generation iPod touch can't be updated past 4.2.1.

HT3814 how do i get itunes to keep track info on cds i burn from my itunes library?

how do i get itunes to keep track info on cds i burn in itunes?

Audio CDs do not contain track information. For commercial CDs this information is supplied by the Gracenote service (see below). Each computer gets this information for a particular CD from this service, it isn't on the CD. You would have to register your CD with Gracenote. In my opinion this is a bit much for a personal CD that only a few computers in the world will ever see, but I guess unless they block it then you can do it.

How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0?

How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0? How can I upgrade my iPad?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software

Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

How do i get my serial number for lightroom when it was purchased from the app store?

how do i get my serial number for lightroom when it was purchased from the app store now that the app store has discontinued selling the product?
Thanks
-Ethan

Purchases from the App Store do not include serial numbers. The App Store itself provides the licensing for the product. You will have to contact Apple to have them help you reinstall Lightroom through the App store (just because it is no longer for sale does not mean that you will not be able to download your past purchases).

How can I get iTunes to update play counts and file additions between users on the same computer?

I have placed my iTunes library in /Users/Shared/iTunes along with iTunes Music Library.XML
When I open iTunes, all the music is displayed correctly with playcounts etc...
The problem is, when a playcount or album info is updated it does not carry over to the other user on the same computer. The same with adding new files to the iTunes library...
How can I get iTunes to auto-update between users?
Thanks

I understand how to do that, I was looking to share all fodlers or a bunch of folders. I found out how to do it.

How do I get iTune 11 to play complete genre straight through?

I cannot get iTunes 11 to play through a complete genre from beginning to end. For example, in an earlier version I created a genre entitled World Music - Celtic. When I hit the genre button, all the albums I put in this genre show up. However, when I hit the play button at the top of the screen, I get the first song of the first album. Then iTunes skips several albums, plays a couple of songs out of oder from another album. The it skips several albums, plays one song and stops. I have 194 songs in this particular category. Really frustrated.

Do any of the tracks look greyed out? Right mouse click on a track. If it shows Check selection in the popup box select that. If it shows Uncheck Selection they are alredy checked
You want to click on the Play button to the right of the Genre name. Blues in the example below

How do I get iTunes U to play all files, right now it stops after each audio file and I will have to manually select the next one.

I am unable to find a way to get iTunes U to play all audio files one after the other without me manually playing each one of them.

Best I've managed is to create a smart playlist in iTunes with the album set to the title of the course. Have the smart playlist update automatically so that any new postings from the course are included within the playlist. After that you should be able to play the playlist and have all the audio files play one after the other. Hope it helps!

How can I get my iPod to play noise when it says my headphones are in but they arnt and I can't get it to play music with out my headphones in ?

How can I get my sound to play my iPod says my headphones are in all the time and they arnt so it will only play sound when my headphones are in

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem..
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself

HT3406 when using my old iphone as a itouch how do i get itunes to recognize as a different device and not the new phone?

When using my old iphone4 as an itouch - how do i get itunes to recognize as a new and seperate device

You don't need to do anything. iTunes will automatically recognise different devices as different devices. Just plug it in.
You can rename the device by clicking the name in the side panel in iTunes for your own identification purposes, but this name does not matter to iTunes.

Do my itunes purchases keep downloading even when I'm not signed into itunes?

I don't have enough time for my purchases to download completely, and I need to sign out of my itunes account, and I was just wondering, if I sign out without pausing my downloads, will they keep downloading? Because this is what I'm actually hoping for. It would be great if they could keep downloading even when I'm not signed in. I just don't know if they do or not.

Hi junebeez,
Have you gone into Settings and turned off the Sync Courses and Notes option? If not, try doing this:
Go to Settings>iTunes U>Sync Courses and Notes, and see if it is = On. If it is, turn it Off and see if that fixes the problem.
Hope this helps!
