How to keep track of last song played?

Hi!
Does anyone know how to keep track of which song played last time before itunes was closed? I have a big list of songs in my playlist and I play it everyday while I'm working. If I shut down my computer and start it again the next day, I have to manually look for the song I played the previous evening. Is there a way where it will keep track of the last song and play it from that?
Thanks
JB

Subwaygirl, welcome to the Mac family! I'm not sure whether you're asking about beginning to play from the last song played on your iPod or iTunes so I'll answer both.
From the iPod, simply hit Play and it will begin at the next song. It cannot go back to the last song played.
From iTunes, use my answer to Chris to add the Last Played column, sort by that and select the song at the top of the list. That is your most recently played song. If you hit the >> or Next button you will then go to the next song in the randomly-sorted list.

How do you restore the "Last Date Played" notice in the iTunes window for songs?

How do you restore the "Last Date Played" note in the iTunes window of playlists? I lost this a couple of weeks ago, and had someone explain the steps to take (which are not on the iTunes "Help" menu). Thanks.

In the playlist, Right Mouse click on the column headers and it will give you a list to choose from in the pop up select Last Played and that column will display

How to keep track of the users who are all currently logged in

Hi All,
I have basic knowledge of Session and Servlets. I am wondering how to keep track of the users who are all currently logged in. There should be some way of achieving it.
I thought of it and come up with having an Application variable that hold it when ever a user successfully logged in.
Thanks in advance for any reply.

You can do this by keeping data in a static veriable in a some class of yours. The variable will need to be a collection.
Whenever a user loogs in to the site a servlet/jsp should put the users information in to the collection and when logs off or when the session expires the entry should be take off.
You can achive this by storing the velues in a some sort of a week collection where the entries are automaticaly removed when all the other refferences to the entry goes out of scope.
You might need to read bit about java.lang.ref package and WeekReference
Or you can make the entry in the collection contain the last time that the user visited any of the pages and a thread can run time to time and clean up the older entries which have timed out

Need to Keep track of last prompted value

I have a requirement. I need to keep track the last prompted value.
Like, If we have run a report for '01-01-2013' date and 'Sony' Category. If the same report I will run in next time the report should run with those default value ('01-01-2013' date and 'Sony' Category). That means default value of a dashboard prompt should be the last prompted value.
Please tell me how to achieve the same.

Ipod on touch does not restart on last song played and no audio crossfade.

Every time I turn off or leave the ipod portion of my touch it loses the last song played. I find this irritating because then I always have to start form the beginning. Plus, unlike the Nano, the touch does not come with audio crossfade whick lets songs mis together. How hard can it be to update these two things with that... c'mon Apple!

How to keep track of how many times a link has been clicked?

How to keep track of how many times a link has been clicked or accessed? Do I need to use database for this?

Hi
Proably something like this can work,
1> Have a servlet/bean invoked when the link is linked
2> have a static variable in that servlet/bean wich gets incremented before the control is passed to another desired page..
The problem with this approach is that care has to be taken that the servlet/bean is not re-instalised, in case of which the static variable will also be instalised and the data would be lost.
The best thing is to store the count in the database.

How to keep track of the changes done in ALV GRID Report

Hi Experts,
how to keep track of the changed record in ALV GRID Report. how to set the field to be editable even for the entire row also. Can anybody guide along with code also?...
Valuable answers will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Satish.

Hi,
Access the table through SM30. It comes blank as standard. Click "New Entries" and make entries for changes to be tracked. For example, whenever an org. unit changes 002 and 003 relationship, you will make entries like:
01 O 1001 B002 Activate box checked
01 O 1001 B003 Activate box checked
Here, 01 is your active plan version, O is org. unit, 1001 is infotype and B002 and B003 are the subtypes. You can also use * for infotype and subtype which means every change will be logged.
If you then run the report RHCDOC_DISPLAY through SA38, it will pick up all the changes pertaining to B002 and B003 relationship for org. units (in the above example).
Similarly, you can set up this table for other object types.
For more information, follow SPRO>Personnel Management>OM>Basic Settings>Activate change documents and go through the documentation for that node. Also, read up the documentation for the report.
Hope this helps.

How to keep track of the sequence of the BSP Pages being invoked.

Hi,
How to keep track of the sequence of the BSP Pages being invoked.
I have a BSP Page A.htm. There are two other pages B.HTM and C.HTM in the same BSP Application.
The page B.HTM has a link A.HTM. The page C.HTM also has a link A.HTM. On clicking these links the Page A.HTM would be invoked. Is there any way to keep track which BSP Page (i.e B.HTM or C.HTM) invoked the page A.HTM.
Any input on this Regard would be of great help.
Thanks and Regards,
Pavithra

Hi Pavithra,
Declare in page attributes:
appl_url type string
In the onClick event of the link that calls the A.htm page , use:
call method runtime->get_url
receiving
URL = appl_url.
Now appl_url contains the url (also name) of the page that invoked A.htm .
Hope it helps.

How to keep track of emails btn Blackberry & Outlook???

Hi,
I'm considering buying a Blackberry Curve (Sprint). My hangup thus far is that I want to have all of my sent emails in my Outlook on my home computer. My solution thus far has been to use GoToMyPC so that I can connect to my home PC from any computer and take care of my emails. Also, I work mostly from home, so this isn't a huge problem in terms of convenience and efficiency.
Most people tell me that they CC themselves when they send an important email from their Blackberry. This is how they keep track of important emails sent from their Blackberry. IS THERE ANOTHER WAY? A MORE RELIABLE WAY? IS THERE A WAY TO HAVE ALL EMAILS SYNC'D WITH OUTLOOK WHEN (THEORETICALLY) SYNCING MY BLACKBERRY WITH MY HOME COMPUTER? IF NOT, WHAT IS THE BEST WAY?
Thanks in advance,
Gary
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have two (2) EMails addresses; on is my blackberry address, and the other is my Outlook. I mostly give out my Outlook address so I could have it on my PC at home, and when Isync it is there,. Or, in the field if I inadvertantly delete a message, I know it will still be on my PC at Home. I think your friend is correct. If she has the Blackberry
Enterprise System through her IT Dept. at work. I have the BIS (Blackberry Internet Service).
I hope this helps. It is quite confusing

How to keep track of what I've previously draw

They said:
Everytime the paint method is called, everything that was drawn before must be redrawn. The paint method has no way to keep track of what you've previously drawn, it is your responsibility as the programmer to keep track of such things.
Is this right?
How can keep track of my random shades of random amounts?
Is there a simple way to do that?
In a example, I must use getGraphics to get JPanel's graphics, then I use it to random draw something in the JPanel.
I just want to keep them in my JPanel when it resizes.I haven't get the answer yet.
Can you help me?

Ok I haven't got time to write the code for you, but here's the idea:
//User drags mouse around to draw on screen
//use mouseActionListener to catch MouseDragged event
int x = mouseEvent.getX();
int y = mouseEvent.getY();
Point p = new Point(x,y);
arrayListOfPoints.add(p);
// end mouse action capture
//override paint method of component
public void paint(Graphics g){
    super(g);
    Iterator it = arrayListOfPoints.iterator();
    while(it.hasNext()){
        Point p = (Point)it.next();
        g.drawLine(p.getX(),p.getY(),p.getX(),p.getY())

How to keep tracks together in shuffle mode?

When playing in shuffle mode you can't hear tracks in line together while they should be, e.g. in conceptalbums.
Is there a way to overcome this?
(You can do it with complete albums when downloading in the Library, but what can you do when the tracks are already in the Library?)

The second tab is calles 'Info' as well. Down under you have the possibilty to mark Part of a collection (Deel van verzameling). It should do the trick but it doesn't. I once tried, but I haven't found out what it does.
In English, that is named as "Part of a compilation" and Google Translates that as "Deel van een compilatie". As far as iTunes is concerned, this means that the album has songs by different artists, albums such as the "Now X" series. It is how iTunes keeps a Various Artists album together.
Joepiet wrote:
I want to shuffle works, not tracks..
Ah! I see what you want now!
Two possibilities that I can think of (number 2 is the better one):
Create a Playlist for each "work", by simply adding all the songs from one work to one Playlist and all songs from the next work to another Playlist and so on. Then, if you want to play one complete work, followed by another complete work, you could simply create a further Playlist and add each "work Playlist" you want to this new Playlist. To make the works random, all you could do is choose for yourself as you are adding them. You would need to play this new Playlist in order, not shuffle.
If you originally imported this music from a CD, you could import from the CD again. But this time, combine the tracks that make up one work, as one track. iTunes names this as "Join CD Tracks" (or CD-tracks samenvoegen in the Dutch iTunes).
In the screenshot above, I have selected tracks one, two and three and then used the options menu to find Join CD Tracks. This third option will not be visible until you select two or more adjacent tracks, as shown above.
In the screenshot below, I have joined tracks one, two and three as one "work". Then joined tracks four, five and six as a separate work. Finally, I've joined tracks seven through twelve as a third work.
Notice in the screenshot that the Options menu says "Unjoin CD Tracks". That is because the highlighted ones (7-12) are currently joined.
And here it is in Dutch:
With this second method, a work (of several tracks) will always be played as one track (or song). You can then simply add all the individual works to one Playlist, and play the Playlist in Shuffle Songs mode. That way, each work would be played in full, followed, at random, by another work.)
And if you really need to - import the CD this second time with a slightly different album name, so that you then have two copies. One, where each song (or track) is the individual song on the album and the second where each "song" is a work.
Now, lets hope I can get my iTunes back into "English" English, as my Dutch is not too good, even though I'm just the other side of the North Sea from you!

How to keep track of an iterator?

Hi everyone.
I'm having an issue trying to keep track of an interator in a tree map.
Basically my application is an address book, and it has the following button:
First Prev Next Last
So if they press the first button it will run the following code:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        //get first item in the list
        Contact temp = (Contact)iter.next();This works fine.
But now I'm trying to get the Last element in the tree and then assign a "global" iterator to it, infact all the buttons should have an iterator that will keep track of where the current element is...and thats where I'm having problems with.
So if I get the first element when someone presses the first button, I would like to now assign an iterator to that position, so if someone presses the Next button, I would just do iter.next(); and then display the information .
The problem is though, I also need to go back 1 element if the user presses the Previous button...is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?
I have an internal iterator keeping track of things but I get an error, like for example:
Collection c = treeMap.values();
         int count = 0;
        //obtain iterator for tree map
        Iterator iter = c.iterator();
        while(iter.hasNext() && count < treeMap.size()-1)
            count++;
            iter.next();
        trackIter = iter.next();trackIter = iter.next();
I want trackIter to point to whatever iter.next() is pointing at, which in this case, is the last element in the list but I get an error here saying:
found : java.lang.Object
required: java.util.Iterator
trackIter = iter.next();
Any ideas?
Thanks

First of all your bug.
Iterators return Objects.
What kind of object it returns depends on what you were shoving into the Map. If you shoved a Dog into the map, then the iterator returns the Dog, but the Iterator and the Collection only knows that it is an Object, not that it is a Dog. Your code that needed to get a Dog back, needs to cast the result returned by the iterator as a Dog
trackItem = (Dog) iter.next();
However, before you haul off and fix your code, twould be best to fix your design. Your question, "is there a way to go forward and backward with an iterator?" is a good question. Before I tell you the answer, let me ask you a question? What are you going to do if the answer is "NO - you can't go forward and backward"
I mean, it's OK to hack and slash around, trying this and that, but generally it would be good to know the answer to that question BEFORE you write a bunch of code involving iterators, because when you find out that you CAN'T go both forward and backwards with an iterator, what are you gonna do. Are you going to leave part of the design working one way, using iterators for going next and then some totally different mechanism to go the other way? Of course you could do that, but that is not really how one arrives at good design, by first hacking out one feature until you can get it working and then turning you attention to the next and hacking out a different bunch of code.
Observe that Collections can be converted to Arrays and that Arrays have indicies and moving forward and backward in an array is a simple matter of incrementing or decrementing an integer and testing if you fell of the end. Also arrays, having no particular order restrictions can be sorted, or re-ordered any way that you like. How much easier your problem would be if only you had an array instead of a Collection.
Don't take the criticism of your design the wrong way. I actually like the idea of using something like an iterator for your buttons, but the thing you are using is not really an iterator. As you said it must go both ways. It is really more like a text cursor where you can advance forward and backwards over a list. So build a Cursor class that you can hand an array. Give it routines like, first(), last(), mid(), stepForward(), stepBack(), getCurrent(), getIndex(), setIndex().
And then you ask yourself, "before I write this code - let me see if someone has already written it." you look up Cursor in the API. Nope, there is a cursor class, but it is for crossHair cursors and the like. Then you ask yourself, "What else could they have called this?" How about ListIterator. Bingo - there you are, an interface class that has hasNext, hasPrevious, ... But it is only an interface. It doesn't do anything. What kind of class would implement this interface? Maybe List, so you look up List. Drat, it is some disgusting awt component. Oh wait, there's another interface, List, and there on the "All known Implementing Classes" you see LinkedList, ArrayList and others.
Cool. You can reduce a collection to an array, if you could get an array into one of these list types, you could have your interface all built for you and everything, or if it isn't exactly what you want, no big deal, you already know the interface you need, you can just build it, whatever reduces your effort.
See how it works? And just for the record, I didn't know about ListIterators, when I started typing this. But I know a design principle that helped me find it. I don't grab a component that I know and see if I can make the system work with the thing that I know. Instead I think of what I want it to do, try to design the interface for what I want it to do and then, once I know what I want from a structural standpoint, I start groveling around to see if that thing already exists.
You were almost there. When you asked if an Iterator goes both forwards and backwards. And the answer is, "No"
I see that others have posted before I finished writing this tome. Reversing the array and creating an iterator for that list will not get you the behavior that you are in some state, at some place in the list, from which you can go either forward or backwards. It just gets you a way to go backwards through the list.
On the assumption that you are a student attempting to learn something, I would suggest that you actually do both approaches. Using the ListIterator approach is what you would do in a production environment (I just need this one behavior and it already exists over here) but you will probably learn more if you implement your own cursor class as I described above. The point is that you have a chunk of functionality, knowing where you are in a list and being able to step either forward or backward, that you want to achieve. The way that you get some chunk of functionality is that you design and build a class that lets you get that functionality. Iterator is NOT that class.

Can iTouch remember last song played?

I have bunch of albums on my iPod Touch 2 and it seems whenever I switch to watch a movie, it doesn't remember last song it played. I know it can remember position in the song, but can I make it remember which album and which track it was playing last?

No, however you can create Smart Playlist that can help you continue to play stuff you haven't played in a while. Just make a new Smart Playlist like so...
The "200" can be changed to any number you prefer, but something larger gives you more of a random selection when shuffling.
So what happens is the playlist is filled with the 200 tracks that either haven't ever been played or have been the longesst since they last played. As you play out of this playlist, once a song finished, it becomes the MOST recently played, falls out of the playlist and is replaced by something else that hasn't been played the longest.
So when you shut down and restrart, this playlist assured you that you are only listening to stuff you haven't heard in a while and nothing will cycle back into that list until you have gone through all but the last 200 songs in your library. e.g. if you have 1000 songs it won't be until you go through 800 songs that the first 200 songs start to show up again.
