How do I stop it from shuffling tracks in the ipod app?

I have put an audiobook onto the iphone but it shuffles the tracks. There used to be a blue shuffle button in the ipod mode but this has disappeared... It's really frustrating that I can't play the book in order!

Thanks for replying, I have the progress bar, a repeat button, a go back 30 seconds button and a change speed button. The latter two are new and I have no recognisable shuffle button. Weirdly though, since I went back and played with all of these just now, it has stopped shuffling them. So while I still don't know how to change the shuffle setting, at least I can listen to the book!

  • How do I stop iTunes from starting up in the other active Windows sessions?

    I have multiple (3) user accounts on a windows (Vista) computer. When I start iTunes from one account iTunes wants to also start up on each of the active windows accounts and continues to attempt to start iTunes after some time period (90 seconds?).
    I get a error screen on the attempts for the User that should not be starting iTunes that reads:
    You cannot open the application "iTunes" because another user has it open.
    Ask the other user to quit the application, then try again.

  • How do I stop iTunes from breaking out all the songs in one album into multiple albums?

    How do I stop iTunes from breaking out all the songs in one album into multiple albums when the artist has many collaborators on the different songs, for example Timbaland?  I want to just listen to the full album with all the songs, instead of having to play every song separately.

  • How do I stop Voice Memos from showing up in the iPod App?

    I have an iPhone 4.   I do not want Voice Memos to pass through to the iPod app.  I really don't want them in iTunes either, but I can live with that I suppose.  In iTunes, in the iPhone section, under the Music tab, "Include Voice Memos" is NOT checked.  However, after I record new voice memos, the next time I sync, they go into iTunes and right into the iPod app.  Then when I'm playing the "Recently Added " playlist (my new music), I hear my voice ("And here is my recap of today's marketing meeting") which I do NOT want to hear in iPod.  Thanks for any help.

        Hi preserve,
    This is very strange! I have the LG G2 phone and my text messages do not go to my email. What text messaging application applications are you using? Are all text messages going to your email or only those from certain contacts? I use Verizon Messages http://bit.ly/13rcZfv and all my messages flow very nice. Please post answers to the above questions and we'll explore options to resolve.

  • How do I stop unwanted/promotional content delivery to the iPod?

    I found I have a number of songs that have been pushed to my iPod that I do not want. How do I stop this unwanted promotional material in the future. I cannot find a setting in iTunes or on the iPod Touch. TIA

    Never mind . . . we selected a couple of compilation CDs we ripped (7 CDs classed Various Artists) to sync. It really populates the By Artist view - wasn't expecting that, but makes sense. Sorry for the bogus post.

  • How do I stop iTunes from auto-launching when connecting iPod.

    I have found one method of doing this set out below.
    You may want to stop iTunes from auto-launching whenever you plug in your iPod. To do this, open iTunes, and select the iPod in the left-hand Source window. Four buttons will then appear in the lower right-hand corner of the iTunes window. Click the left-most button with the iPod icon on it. This will bring up the iPod Preferences dialog. Uncheck the option labeled "Open iTunes when attached." You probably also want to prevent iTunes from trying to automatically synchronize your iPod when you connect by selecting the "Manually manage songs and playlists" option in the same Preferences dialog.
    I am unable to find the iPod icon in the left hand Source window, maybe if I connect my iPod an icon will appear, but I don't want to do this in case stuff is transferred between the iPod and Comp or vice versa.
    Sorry to be so long winded, but it was difficult to explain without being so.
    If any one knows of another way to do what I am trying to do
    Perhaps they would let me know.

    okay. in a 7.0.x, we no longer get the "ipod options" icon when the ipod is plugged in and selected in the sourcelist (the area to the left of the iTunes screen). instead, the ipod options and preferences display for us in the main library screen.
    "Open iTunes when this ipod is connected" is kept down at the bottom of the "Summary" tab. (scroll down to the bottom of that tab to see everything under the "Options" heading.)
    "manually manage music" (or "manually manage music and videos" if you've got a video-capable ipod) is also kept down at the bottom of the "Summary" tab in the Options area.
    for a technique for connecting the ipod without automatically syncing (if you have an automatic syncing option set on the ipod already), and then changing the options to "manually manage music", see:
    How to keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
    unfortunately, that document is also written for itunes 6.0.x or earlier. so in your case the instructions under the "Now that you're logged in as the Guest user, it's time to get back to iTunes and your iPod:" section at steps 4, 5 and 6 should read:
    4. Scroll down to the bottom of the Summary Tab
    5. Check the "Manually manage music" checkbox.
    6. Click "Apply".

  • How do i stop window from closing down all the time

    watching movie monitor keep going black seem every 5min. and closes have enter my password to start watching movie again. How do I stop that? I put in never in two places put it keep doing it.

    This could be related to the screensaver settings.  
    Check your screensaver settings and ensure that it is either disabled or set to activate long enough to get through a movie without it activating.  The screensaver settings work independently of the power settings, so it may be worth checking both to ensure all fronts are covered.  I have seen this behavior with both.
    In Windows 8, this can be done by going to Start (aka the start screen), searching for Screensaver, selecting Settings on the right, and then change your screensaver.

  • How can I stop ITunes from starting up on the Radio tab?

    Hi, at my workplace web radio sites are restricted. I like to connect my phone to the computer to charge and to listen to my playlists through the computer's speakers. It also gives me the ability to control the volume and tracks with my keyboard or on my desktop without having to reach for my phone all the time.
    So, when I am connected to the network and try to open ITunes it immediately crashes and I think it is because the Radio tab is activated on startup. If I disconnect from the network and open ITunes it works fine. I can then choose the Songs tab and reconnect to the network. Is there a way to disable the radio tab or have it start on another tab?
    Thanks!

    Go to Start>All Programs and look in Startup. iF iTunes appears there, remove it.
    If iTunes is not in startup, do you have any iTunes widgets? If you don't know what they are you probably don't have any.
    Some iTunes Widgets can be configured to start when you start your computer and that could cause iTunes to appear.

  • How do I stop firefox from trying to load the last page after a reboot?

    Occasionally a page will "hang" and I'll use task manager to shut it down, but sometimes it is due to a spyware program. I do not want the page to reload after restarting Firefox... how do I set it to stop trying to reload pages?

    Set the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes] to 0 on the <b>about:config</b> page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.
    That will allow you to deselect the tab(s) that you do not want to reopen, but will allow to reopen other tabs.
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore#Restoring_a_session_after_a_crash
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • How do I stop Firefox from automatically filling in the spaces for my username and password on one of my password protected websites?

    Firefox is automatically entering my username and password on my Sacramento State University secure password site. I am trying to get that function stopped. I do not want my username and password automatically entered in the spaces provided for log in. I want to manually enter that information myself each time I log in to that particular secure password protected site.
    So far...I can not find a way to do that. All I find is a way to change my password. I do not wish to change my password. I just do not want it automatically entered for me.

    Thanks guys...I did as you suggested and it worked! Thanks!
    However...just want you all to know...a computer illiterate like myself had trouble finding which function on the menu bar to click on to find the options and security settings to "unclick." Eventually...I found the correct window.
    Thanks again...your advice worked!

  • How do I stop Excel from trying to rebuild the Outlook database when I try to open a .xls file?

    Using Office 2011. When I try to open a .xls or .docx file, Excel or Word wants to rebuild the Outlook database. I do not have Outlook installed.
    The file will open if I dismiss the Outlook query popup, and double click on the same file I just tried to open.
    Works fine, just irritating.

    Open Mail, then open Preferences (command-comma), and on the "General" pane the top entry is "Default email reader."  Choose Mail (6.3) from the box.
    Now all mailto: links will open Mail by default.  If you ever want to set another mail client as the default, choose it in that box.

  • How do I stop iTunes from being brought to the front every time I rip a CD?

    It used to be that "Hide iTunes Windows" will do the trick. With the new iTunes, it stops doing it. I have over a thousand CD and it is getting annoying having iTunes keep popping up with each CD I put into my computer to get it rip, especially when I am working on other stuff.
    Thanks!

    Two places to set your prefs.
    1 is in the System Prefs>Hardware>CD/DVD.
    2 is in iTunes prefs>Advanced>Importing.
    Set your prefs in those 2 places and all should be well.

  • How do I stop bookmarks from automatically opening when the cursor is over them?

    Bookmarks folders open immediately when cursor passes over them. I hate this. I don't want the folders to open unless I click on it.

    * within some sort of document or file
    *on firefox
    ** on the bookmarks toolbar
    **on the sidebar
    **in the firefox bookmarks library
    * on a drop down menu from the location bar
    * somewhere else
    try to answer the above questions and give more detail, someone will probably try to help.

  • How can I stop Mozilla from trying to install the updater everytime I open it?

    I had issues where Firefox eats memory searching for updates. I disabled the Updater, now every time I open Firefox, it tries to reinstall it. so i open Fire fox, the computer asks me if I want to let the Mozilla Updater" make changes to my computer. I say no and then firefox opens. Is there anyway to keep "updater" from trying to install everytime I open firefox?

    Do you mean the updating service that Firefox installs and that Windows runs in the background? You can turn that on and off with a checkbox in the Options dialog. See this article: [[Advanced settings for accessibility, browsing, system defaults, network, updates, and encryption]].
