How to stop 'now playing' song?

How can I stop the 'now playing' song and remove the 'now playing' option from the front screen?

You press and hold play/pause. That shuts the iPod off.
As for removing the "Now playing" option, my apologies, you can google for it, there are some iPod modify sites, but it may cause you problem, with hacked firmware.
Have a nice day!

Now Playing song displayed in toolbar

Then you mean the menubar, not toolbar, and it is basically off limits. You can search Google to see if there are any 3rd-party utilities that will perform this function, but Apple does not support it in iTunes because adding clutter to the menubar is bad user interface design.

I moved from USA to South Africa and now cannot play my music on my new PC. I cannot remember the password for my USA account so cannot deauthorize that account to allow me to play my music on my South African account. How can I now play the music?

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

How do I stop iTunes from highlighting 'Now Playing' song

How do I keep iTunes from switching to and highlighting the 'Now Playing' track each time it switches tracks? It's quite annoying when scrolling my library or syncing a product with certain music and it then switches from Z to A as that is now the current track. Any insights?

Hello Garrett,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes launching unexpectedly. I recommend reviewing the following article to see if any third-party plug-ins could be causing the problem:

ITunes 9.2 not displaying "Now Playing" Song Info

I recently upgraded my iTunes to 9.2 and have discovered that instead of showing the song, artist and album information when playing music, it instead shows lines that show the song's levels in the top window. Any idea how to change this back to showing song information - I've tried everything I can think of but can't see an option to switch the display back.

In that off-white "Play Zone" (I guess theres no real technical term for it), check to the left of the EQ Visualizer you are seeing, you should see a little circle with a play icon in it. Click that until you get to the song information again. You probably just accidentally clicked it without knowing it.
For reference, that button cycles between what you view in that play area. So for example, this includes now playing info, EQ levels, downloading item progress, etc.

Missing: Adding the "Now Playing" song to a Playlist

I have a lot of songs but I want to manage my music by creating playlists on the go, so I purchased an iPod Touch and Stuffed in all my music to iTunes to sync to my iPod Touch. Done.
Just found out that you can NOT add the currently playing song to a playlist, new or existing. The easiest way to add the currently playing song, to a new or old playlist is to (This will be long), first, memories at least a few keywords of that currently playing song e.g. title, artist, or album, and then go to Playlist tab, select the playlist or add a playlist..., click on Edit, click on add song, search the song and add to Playlist, Click Done. Not easy.
I find this very time consuming. I expected to see iPod Touch have this as a very very basic feature.
My question: Is there a Product Enhancement Request already submitted about this? I had my iPod Touch with iOS 4 when I purchased it. Now I have iOS 5, no fix to this issue still.
It would be really really appeciated if Apple's Product Management Team could give us a heads up if this feature will ever be available.
Kindest Regards

I second that. I just use the "recently played" playlist as kind of a makeshift on-the-go playlist. But to create a playlist from scratch, they've GOT to make it easier than scrolling through thousands of songs. I just don't create playlists on the ipod touch/iphone anymore. I do it on iTunes and sync it to the device.
Maybe they think playlists are just too "old-school". They have "cutting-edge" features (no doubt to appeal the younger folks) like play a song by saying the song name, yet they don't give you a basic feature like on-the-go playlisting.

How to show 'now playing' Image in bottom left, How to show 'now playing' Image in bottom left

Hi,
On my iTunes (10.7) in the bottom left corner it shows an image of the music you are currently playing titled as Now Playing.
I am trying to get the same thing on my father's iTunes, his is also v10.7 but no 'now playing' section. How can I enable this? I can't seem to find it in the 'view' menu either..
Thanks,

How to stop the Play now feature?

I have scheduled a presentation and a playlist both through the play now feature of the DMM. I can not seem to figure out how you actually stop the content from playing. I can send something else to it via future content. However now if I try to delete the presentation or play list I get a message saying that it cannot because it is already scheduled. How can I go about removing these?
Also I am not a professional at creating the content for this system but my boss wants to be create some professional type content. Is there a resource for maybe downloading more templates or even something for helping me go about creating some nice looking presentations?
Thank you in advace!

Hi Glen, the way I have halted "play now" content is by stopping all application for the dmp.
navigate to Digital Media Players in the Digital Media Manager. Check off the dmps that you want to halt content for. Click the dropdown under Actions, scroll to the bottom & select 'stop all application', click Go.
hope this helps.

How to stop auto play to next song?

I was wondering if there is a pref or option that will prevent iTunes from playing the next song on the list so that once the selected song is finished, iTunes will NOT play the next song? Thanks in advance for your help!

The only way I know of is to uncheck all the tracks. Tunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. To uncheck all the tracks, control-click on any checkbox and it will select or unselect them all.

How do you display the now playing song title in miniplayer?

I can't seem to change my preferences such that I can see the song titlle of the current song playing in my miniplayer.

Song Title, artist and album is always shown on miniPlayer, unless you hover the mouse over it, or if it is selected (highlighted) rewind play or forward buttons. Try highlight Up Next or Serch button (if by pressing Tab or Shift+Tab you can higlight next or previous item, respectively).

X2: How to stop and play a MP3 file from any place...

Hi,
I have some 1 hour talk shows on MP3 on my X2. I play one show. After 10 minutes I want to pause it there and take a call, or go to the menu and add a reminder, and come back to the mp3 and play from the point I stopped (10 minutes). How to do that?
When I pause and come back and press play, it starts from the begininging????
Thanks

Well a smarter way of implementing this is by using a solution provided by Java Itself.
If you are using J2SE 6.0+ there is an in built solution provided along with JDK itself and inorder to go ahead with solution the below are set of API which you;d be using it for compiling Java Programs (Files)
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/tools/package-summary.html
How do i do that ??
Check out the below articles which would help you of how to do that
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jcomp/index.html
http://www.javabeat.net/javabeat/java6/articles/java_6_0_compiler_api_1.php

Now once we are done with compilation.In order to run a Specific class all you ought to do is create an object and its specific methods of a specified class included in the CLASSPATH which you can manage it easily by usage little bit reflections.
Hope that might help :)

How to get Now Playing to shut up!

I can stop a song by pressing the pause button, but as soon as I press the mute button to put my phone on standby, it takes it as a command to start playing where it left off. The only way to shut it up is to wait until the song finishes! Why isn't there an intuitive way to handle this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This scenario is common for all BlackBerry devices. After pausing the music if you wnat to close it down then click Menu button and select close.

The "CananIntro.swf" includes (embed) the flv video "canan
PART1.flv".
I would need the action sript code to make the sound at
"canan PART1.flv" ON
or OFF.
Thank you for any hint.

Another way to do this is to create a boolean right off the start. Lets say var createMusicTrack:Boolean and set it to true
Then load your music and start playing it and at the end of that load code add a line that sets the boolean to false so that when you come back to frame 1 the boolean will be false and the code will not load and play, but this could be problematic too. Djnr suggestion is better for your purposes.

ITunes 10 does not add album art to 'Now playing' song

If an artwork is added to a song being played, via drag&drop into the artwork box or copy-paste or via the 'Get Info' window, it is not displayed in the artwork box; it is, however, visible in the Artwork section of the 'Get Info' window.
The cover art is displayed only after another song is played or iTunes is re-launched.
Any ideas anyone?
iTunes 10.6.3
OS X Lion 10.7.4

I called Apple and was told that I needed to restore the iPod. The problem is that I had purchased and installed the January upgrade on my iMac and not my MacBook.
I restored the iPod on the iMac and then synced to the MacBook.
Problem solved!
