I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing.

I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing Looking for a music app or a way to let me stop the music that is playing. I have asked this over and over all over the internet and no one has an answer. I enjoy my music for a while but when it is time to STOP THE MUSIC I have found but one way - Turn off or power down the device. This is so annoying I have stopped playing and stopped purchasing any and all music of any type. If I can not find a way to do so I will remove all music from my devices until I may hear of how to STOP THE MUSIC. I have seen it is done on Android devices but no Apple devices. If there proves to never be a way to STOP THE MUSIC I will surely sell all 5 of my iPhones, iPads and iPad Minis and finally give up on Apple ever truly caring about their users.

Wwell, maybe it is just me. I have been using and have bought 7 Apple devices just over the past 3-5 years. Having supported, programmed, configured and taught college level courses for MS based and super computer hardware and software configurations for almost 20 years I am apparently ignorant of differential operations. Previously I had 5 choices on any hardware or software when playing anything like music, video, DVDs or anything similar. I had 'Play' 'Fast Forward' 'Fast Rewind' 'Pause' a n d 'STOP'. Perhaps Apple has found the STOP unnecessary but I thoro enjoyed knowing whatever I was playing had STOPped and could not continue unless I chose to go back to the program or equipment and chose any of the 5 choices except STOP again since I could not STOP a STOP. As I said perhaps I need to reconsider my choices and obvious ignorance. Thanks for all the help.

Hello, so today I realized that my iPhone with iOS 6 is frozen on the music. I can get back to the home screen but I can't get the music player to work because its frozen on the w's and will not respond to touch. I would be grateful for any help on this.

Hi deamayfield,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

How can I close the music player?

Good morning,
     I just bought an iPod nano 6G, and this is my firs Apple product.
     Anyway, there is something that is bottering me. I use the iPod as a watch, and sometimes I use as music player. After I'm done listening to music and want to use the iPod JUST as a watch, when I press the Wake button, to visualize the hours, it shows the music player. And there is this 'pause' icon in the top bar.
     Isn't there a way to close this player???
          Thank you!

It might help to also put the iPod to sleep from a screen other than the Now Playing screen when listening to music.
As I said already above...
Again, others have synced their iPod with iTunes after making sure this setting was On and it worked from there. Is your Nano running the 1.2 firmware?

I can't stop the Live Player application.

Hello Everyone,
I started streaming an audio broadcast from radiomd.com and now I can't stop it (I can't quit the Live Player). How do I quit the Live Player? (I accidently put it in Full Screen Mode & I can't access any controls.) I'm running Firefox 25.01 on a Macbook running OSX 10.7.x.
Thanks!

Nevermind...I figured it out. You have to move the pointer all the way to the top of the screen at press the "Full Screen" button.

Can't stop the music from lockscreen

Hi everybody,
I updated my iPhone to iOS 7 last night. Now I got the problem that I can't skip or stop the music neither from lockscreen or the control center. I always have to unlock the phone an switch to the music app.
Does anybody else have that problem? Does anybody know how to solve it?
Would be great getting an answer here.
Thanks already.
Benny

I had the same problem but after a reset (hold down lock and home buttons until the screen fades off and the apple logo appears) everything is ok.

N95 how to limit what directory the Music Player s...

Hi. I installed some sofware in E drive (memory card) with some sound files (an IM program). The Music Player managed to find them and added them to the library. But those files are really nudge sounds and not musics.
So I really prefer it not searching directories other than the one I set to search. I would like to set it to only search "Music" folder if I could.
Could you help me out? Thanks.

If you hook up via USB you can change the file attribute to "Hidden", they then don't show in Music Player. Refresh Music Player after changing them.
I haven't done it for a while so those instructions are a bit vague, if you search this site or some of the others you'll find more detail.
I had to do it after I installed "Step Counter" -- it's sounds showed up on Music player.

How can I stop the music playing while charging on a dock?

When charging my iPhone 4 on a compatible dock it plays music. I have turned the volume down but am unable to completely stop it from playing music inthebackground. How can I stop this from happening every time I charge my iPhone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

Can't stop the music when I leave the page.

Hi all;
I keep posting in the wrong area. Sorry. I did this post in AC2 and the answers didn't look right. So, here I am again.
I'm building a website in flash using my limited understanding of action script. Everything was progressing very well until I found that if I go to one of my example pages of my web site and play the flash video (with audio) and click back to my "home" button, the audio will continue to play. If I go back to the example page, the video is off and when I start the video, it plays again with the other audio. I hear the audio twice! I know there is an action script to handle this but, I can't figure it out.
My question is, How do I stop the audio when I click away from the example page back to the home page or any other page?
Thanks in advance for your help.
I'm using Flash CS4 and a Mac OS operating system.
Did I mention that I'm not very good with action scrupt but, I'm so close to finishing this web site.

assign your component an instance name (if it doesn't already have one), eg flv and in the frame that contains that component add:
flv.addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE,removedF);
function removedF(e:Event):void{
flv.stop();

Can I stop the music from "ducking" during a video clip in a slideshow?

I want the music to be the same volume throughout the slideshow because I've taken off the audio from the video clips I have inserted.

Strange, most users want the music to duck even more than it does. I don't know any way to do what you want with iPhoto. There may be workarounds with other apps like iMovie, etc. but not a simple fix in iPhoto itself.

Can't stop the music!

I could really use help here. I use downcast to listen to podcasts on my iPhone 5s in the car and elsewhere. Every time a podcast ends my music starts to play. Always the same song...Abacab by Genesis (old guy here). Obviously alphabetical order. I'm so sick of hearing the beginning of this song. If I delete it it's going to happen with the next song. I thought I could record a "song" with just silence but it won't upload to imatch from my mac. Any ideas?
My hope is to just have nothing play until I select another podcast. Don't want to delete all of the music from the phone either. Thoughts?
Thanks!

Try the double click and swipe one more time. Then up the Control Center up to see if the music is still playing. If it still is the next step since you said you tried a reset is general> settings> reset> reset all settings. You'll have to re-enter your wifi settings. if you live near an Apple Store you might want to have them check it out.

How can I stop my iPhone 5 from starting the music player randomly on its own?

I have an iPhone 5 running the latest version of iOS. Sometime last year (maybe shortly after I originally upgraded to iOS 7), the phone developed a nasty habit of starting up the music player during phone conversations when I connected to my Mazda's Bluetooth system. Oddly enough, I can hear the music playing over the phone conversation but the person on the other end of the phone line can't. To stop the music, I have to open the Music App and then close the App. Note that the Music App did NOT have to be previously open for the music to start, and the Music App doesn't usually show as an open App even after the music starts on its own. The problem has persisted through the last few iOS updates and it now happens in a broader range of circumstances (e.g., I have told the iPhone to forget the Mazda adapter, and it now does the same thing with my Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth headset). I usually have to go through this sequence at least twice per Bluetooth pairing session before the phone stops trying to start the music player on its own during phone calls.
The problem went away temporarily when I did a full reset of the phone, but it came back after a few days (even when I added apps & music back without restoring from an iOS backup).
Has anyone found a way to fix this problem once and for all? If I can find a fix, it's enough of an annoyance that it might convince me to go Android with my next phone. Thanks in advance...

I've tried syncing with itunes and icloud. The missing contacts are nowhere to be found. I just re-enter them on my iphone and proceed on my not so merry way. Next time I look for a contact, it might be there or it might not. It is not necessarily the same contact. It appears that my oldest contacts seem to be the ones disappearing

How can I stop the display dimming when plugged into a powersupply. Cannot read playlist in car using music player.

My new ipod seems to dim after a short time, even when plugged into a power supply, unlike my previous ipod, which used to stay illuminated
when plugged into the car stereo and external power
Now in order to see the playlist I have to swipe or touch the home button, using the music player. However using a GPS app, the screen stays
fully illuminated......as it should!
Is this normal now for playing music?
Also, the new grey on white menu display for music is very hard to read in the car in bright daylight.......unlke the old white on black. Nothing I
can do about that sadly except complain to apple directly :-(

Hi Diavonex. Yes I was aware of this option.
Subsequently I have done a litle research and downloaded a music app called "Track 8" which has a much clearer interface (larger type) and the abillity to change the background colour to dark or light.
This is much more readable in the car in bright light, and much better at night too.
You can also turn off auto-lock within the application, which is great, as it doesn't affect other apps.
Although this app is really only an interface sitting on top of the music app, it offers a much better experience
in my opinion that the stock player which seems to have devolved rather than evolved.

I can listen to the Music Library in my Ipad through home sharing, but I can't do it in my Iphone. When Iphone managed to connect my Mac, I can see how a watch turns clockwise but it stops when it arrives at a half of the watch. What can I do?

How can I get my iPhone to play the last track the music player was playing from where it left off at the same volume even if I switch my phone off?

The music player always reverts back to where I started the day before at a low volume and it's driving me mad! On a previous phone with earlier IOS there was the option to play from where the track left off when stopped - how do I find this option now?

If you click on the column headings in iTunes it will sort the tracks by the column you have selected.
Try clicking on the Album column, this should then put the tracks in the right order. You probably have the Track column selected which will keep the tracks in alphabetical order by Track name.
