  • Shuffle feature has stopped working on MacBook

    I'm using iTunes 11.1.4 on Mac BookPro to serve as digital music source for home hi-fi audio system.  I have over 300 GB of high quality files, mostly Lossless, some AIFF.  All of a sudden, the shuffle feature has stopped working.  It doesn't work in any format - regular playlist, Smart Playlist, or the entire music library.  Whether I hit the icon, or right click on the Playlist and hit "Shuffle Playlist" - nothing happens.  The only thing I can think of is that perhaps my iTunes Music file/library has become too large?  But can that really be?  Any ideas?

    The songs will play shuffled but they will display in the sort order, not a shuffled order.
    Songs will display;
    Song 1
    Song 2
    Song 3
    Song 4
    Songs will play; (randomly)
    Song 2
    Song 3
    Song 1
    Song 4
    I twill play sing 1, then song 49, then song 10

  • So, my ipod touch 4th generation has stopped working. every time i plug it into a wall or an outlet, it will regester that it has been plugged in, but it will not charge, and trurn on. does anyone have any suggestions? thank you.

    my ipod touch has stopped working. I will plug it into a wall, or computer, and it will register that it is plugged in, but it will not charge and turn on. does anyone have any advice? thank you.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • TS2771 the shuffle facility has stopped working

    the shuffle  has stopped working on my ipod touch   any ideas

    On the now playing screen, tap the artwork one time to bring up additional controls including the Shuffle and Repeat options.  Tap the Shuffle icon (the two arrows crossing each other) until it turns blue to signal that it is enabled.

  • I have a Macbook Pro.  iMessage has stopped working.  I have provided my apple id and password several times and it won't allow me to log in.  Thanks

    Can anyone tell me why iMessage on my macbook pro stopped working and why it won't allow me to sign in. The apple id and password are definitely correct.

    What happens when you try to sign in?

  • I have photoshop 7.0 which has stopped working on my computer. When I try to open an image in Photoshop it gives me an error message saying the image is damaged or corrupted. I can open the same image in other image programs.

    Can anyone help me. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but nothing helps. I can not afford to spend money on a new program.

    First step: update Photoshop to 7.0.1.
    Second step:  provide sensible information:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • I have windows 7 but my firefox has stopped working - help

    Depsite being able to connect to the internet I am unable to connect to any web pages. This has only started happening since June 1st & I have not made any updates to Windows or Firefox prior. I note that Firefox no longer works with Windows 2000 or XP, but I have Windows 7. Other internet browsers work. I have completed the suggested solutions on the 'troubleshoot' page for 'other browsers work' but to no avail. Help!

    Can you open Firefox?
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    Also check for problems with your security software (firewall).

  • One row of keys has stopped working.   System was fine last night, sent it to sleep as usual. When I woke it up this morning, the keys were dead. I made no changes to the system at all recently (new installs, font changes, etc.).

    The keys that no longer work are on the lower row, from Z~/ (plus the left-most Command key and the space bar on the bottom row).  System is iMac (Intel), about five years old, running 10.5.8 (happily), with a wired keyboard (with number pad). 
    Solutions tried (all without fixing the problem):
    - change to another keyboard
    - change keyboard(s) to another USB port
    - reset SMC (twice)
    - reset PRAM (twice)
    - switch to another User Account
    Kind of running out of ideas ...  Anybody have any suggestions?

    Other things tried:
    - checked all the options in Universal Access, to make sure none of the 'Sticky Keys' etc. were activated
    - booted from the Install disc ... still no go. Even then, the same keys don't work.
    Looks very much like a major hardware fault, I guess ...

  • I brought an iPhone 5S two days ago, and my home/sleep button has stopped working. However somehow theres a few tiny dents/scratches on it. Will apple still replace my phone?

    (as my concern and issue is the faulty button)

    Take it to the store, explain your situation, be calm polite and understanding, if they decline ask if they have any further options that are not hte OOW.
    REmember politeness get's results, people will try to get you out if A: Their busy, and B: You're rude

  • When I try to install flash player on my mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, and it will not take my password.  tried changing to a new password and same result

    When I try to install flash player on my Mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, but it will not take my password.  Tried changing the password, but same result.  Suggestions??

    This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
    If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt.  If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
    If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

  • I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging ) the green battery light is on - soon after it turns orange and then red. Is there a problem with the battery and is it fixable?

    I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging) the green battery light is on it soon turns orange and red. Is there a problem with the battery and if so is it fixable?

    If it's a 2nd gen shuffle, it is probably about six years old at this point.  The cause is likely to be a worn out battery that is no longer able to hold its charge for very long.
    It is technically fixable.  This web site has repair guides
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Shuffle
    But it is very small, so you need to be good at doing such things.  The cost to have a repair shop do the work is likely to be uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50), which has more features (and possibly double the storage) plus a one-year warranty.

  • Can I use a USB for 2nd generation shuffle with a 3rd generation shuffle

    Seems to be a good fit, but my computer doesn't seem to recognise it.

    By "3rd gen charger" are you referring to the USB cable with the
    4 ring audio connector on the other end?
    If so, the answer is again NO...

  • I have a 3rd generation wifi iPad and there is no sound in the device. Can someone please help?

    I have a 3rd generation wifi iPad and there is no sound in the device. Can someone please help?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

    http://www.atreks.com/app-no-sound-on-ipad-4-%E2%80%93-what-to-do/
    To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Tap on General
    3. Tap on Reset
    4. Tap on Reset All Settings
    What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.
