How do I get Itunes to stop playing song where I left off?

Whenever I play a song it starts from where I ast left off, which to me is getting kind of annoying, since I'm used to it playing from the beginning. I also switch songs either in the middle or towards the end..So it's a hassle to go switch the time to 0:00.
I personally dislike this feature and think there should be a toggle to turn it off or something, unless I didn't find it

Select all your tracks, Get Info (File menu), go to the Options tab, and set the "Remember position" to "No" (do this even if it says No already). That should do the trick.

HT201812 How do I get iTunes to stop duplicating songs?

I have used a Windows computer with iTunes for years with no issues. I switched to a Mac in January and now my library keeps on duplicating songs. I tried removing all of my music and fixing it in an external hard drive, manually deleted all of the duplicates, etc. I have unchecked the "copy to iTunes folder" box in iTunes and moved my library from a separate music folder into the iTunes folder.
I am unsure of what else to do. I have done many searches but am not seeing any advice beyond what I have tried to correct this problem. I can't stand the idea of once again having to manually delete all the duplicates.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Thanks for the response!
I do not have iTunes Match.
I used the external hard drive just to clean things up. Transferred all my songs there, cleaned them up, emptied iTunes, and moved my songs back in. It was fine, until I added new songs to my library. It seems like somewhere in the process of adding files, some of the files in my iTunes are being duplicated.
They are duplicated both in iTunes, and in the folder (there are additional copies with a 1, 2, etc. tacked on to the end).
Also, it's happening to a mix of songs purchased through iTunes, and songs that are added directly to my library from other sources.

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.

How do I get iTunes to stop asking me to sign in?

How do I get iTunes to stop asking me to sign in? I will never buy from iTunes so there is no point in me signing in. A year ago I bought a couple of albums off iTunes but I was sorely disappointed that I did not have the hard copy and album art in a physical form. That made me resolve to only buy music (or any content) in solid form and from the artist themselves if possible. And this is not to mention the proprietary format of iTunes music which basically makes every purchase a lease and not an ownership. So with that said, it is very annoying that iTunes on start-up asks me to sign in, not once, but TWICE. For such a little thing, you would think it would be infuriating. But alas, I'm very tired of being bullied and that is all it is to me. ITunes is a marketing BULLY. I'll stop now before I start in on all the explicatives I can think of for iTunes Store.
CAN ANYONE HELP?

Try this...
Sign into the iTunes store and View account.
Uncheck Ping (to turn it off).
Also, iTunes prefs > Store. Uncheck Automatic downloads
And this is not to mention the proprietary format of iTunes music
Good thing we don't mention it then because AAC is not proprietary.
which basically makes every purchase a lease and not an ownership.
You mean exactly like when you purchase music on a CD (or from any other online store or source)?
You do own the actual CD, but for the music, all you are purchasing is a license to use it (a lease) in accordance with that license.

Why do you believe iTunes is causing this to occur?
What is the exact wording of the message?
I'm running iTunes on Windows 7 and never gotten that message.

How do i get itunes to stop asking for my password repeatedly?

how do i get itunes to stop asking for my password repeatedly?

The solution (for me at least) is to keep trying the same password that I know is correct. For me, the fourth try of typing in the exact same password works in iTunes on my iMac. I have repeated this several times, and each time it works.
I also reset my password, but the same problem occurs in iTunes. I have to type in my password four times in iTunes to get it to work.
iTunes is having issues. I can log in easily on the first attempt every time to post on this message board and I can sign in easily on my iPad 2 to get app updates, but in iTunes on my iMac it takes four attempts and then it works.
Apple needs to release a statement to the public telling people abut this. For Apple to know that this iTunes problem exists and that it is causing literally thousands of people to be stressed out is callous and uncaring.

How do I get itunes to stop loading every few minutes on my computer? I X out of it and it comes r ight back.

How do I get itunes to stop loading every time I turn on my computer? I X out of it and it comes right back. I have tried everything, even had a computer expert try, no luck. I tried uninstalling itunes and tried a new download, it came right back. Very annoying. Help!

Hello all,
I am not in front of my computer but I will try to be clearer::
plug your iphone or iPad with the USB cable in the computer
it launches iTunes or you launch iTunes directly.
in the left colum , in the middle your equipemnt appears
click on it
the middle space will change and you will see horizontal tabs named home, ??, app, music, and so on
click on the first tab and check all the space:: at the end, if I remeber well there is a check mark for manual sync
or it is on the secon tab where you choose to sync mail accounts, notes etc... at the end the checkmark "manual sync" should be checked hence itunes will not sync by itself but only if you ask for it

How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect to the iTunes Store?

So my company decides to cut off my access to the iTunes Store. So I go in to Prefs and turn off all things iTunes Store related. I'm still getting a message saying it can't connect to the iTunes Store. How can I get iTunes to stop trying to connect?

Disable itunes store in preferences.
It's also possible you have some podcast group trying to connect to iTunes if that's their source. Disable podcasts or at least set preferences to check for podcasts manually.

How can I get iTunes to stop downloading iTunes extras with movies?

How can I get Itunes to stop downloading the movie extras? We never watch them and they are wasting space on my harddrive. Each time I delete them, Itunes redownloads the extras.

Thx, and I agree.
I'm selecting that "my question has been answered" here - because the answer is NO. It's apparently not possible. Which is frakkin' ridiculous, and I'd love to be proven wrong. But that's how it appears to be.
What I ended up doing was first backing up all my data by downloading an app called DiskAid (free, Windows and OS X), and actually digging through my iPhone's folder system until I found the right Applications folder, and clicked through each subfolder until I found the Apps whose data I wanted to copy.
For anyone who ever needs to do that, the location is:
/user/Applications/[long string of numbers]/Documents
I was able to back up my apps on my home computer. So I still am not able to sync up any part of my phone at my work computer, without risking deleting these files. Basically I've minimized the possible damage by making backups.
Whatev. I'll live. : ) Beautiful phone. Just so irritating.

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives?

How do you get ITunes to STOP automatically scanning my hard drives for files? I have a number of audio and video files located all over my computer. However, my music folder is located in one place. I only want ITunes to look there to ad music to my IPod? I don't want to add any videos to my IPod however, it automatically scans for this as well. Infact... I don't want ITunes to automatically scan for anything. Why is this doing this?

You can configure iTunes to sync only a subset of your music. Create a playlist in iTunes of the music you want on the iPod, and change the iPod sync settings. More info is here.

How do I get iPod to stop between songs?

How do I get iPod to stop between songs? A simple thing. I want to play a selection, then have the iPod stop, then select another song, have my iPod play it and stop, and so forth. What am I missing?

You aren't missing anything. Under normal playback conditions it isn't possible to do what you want.
The only way would be to put individual songs or selections of songs into playlists.

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!
