I-Pod changing songs by itself...

My I-Pod Randomly will just start going to the next song before the one its playing is not finished and will do it for a while.... Any idea why?

  • With headphones plugged in, ipod changes songs after 2-3 seconds

    ipod has been working fine until lately. when I plug the headphones in, it will change songs after about 2-3 seconds. Also, sometimes when you power down it will come back on all by itself. Any help would be great !!!!!!

    OK, so here is my problem.  I did originally download the Beta 10.10...  Apparently I kept on getting betas and was running 10.10.2 (which today is still in beta).
    I did downgrade to 10.10.1 (by clicking "Download" in the App Store).
    Right after the downgrade everything with syncing works perfectly.
    Cheers, hope this helps someone.

  • What is that screen that pops up when you change songs

    I notice this little screen that comes up when iTunes changes songs. I also notice how this seems to slow it down and is just annoying in general. What is that and how can I turn it off or disable it?

    No, see I have never opened the standard iTunes widget before so i doubt it is causing the screen to show up. The only other iTunes widgets I have downloaded were for lyrics look up nothing related to displaying the current song, and i deleted them already to be safe. Anywho, as soon as SpyMac.com comes back online I will post a picture of the "widget-like" screen that pops up. I will also try what u said but if there is no widget or other iTunes (other than iTunes itself) process running in the Activity Manager then theoretically this is not a widget problem but a setting somewhere in iTunes that was turned on. Anyways, I will post a picture of this as soon as I can.

  • I cannot change song order on playlist with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column( up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8  and am using itunes 10.4.

    I cannot change song order on playlists (old or new) with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column (up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8  and am using itunes 10.4. I can't drag and drop "music" to "playlist" but can right click and get the option to "add to playlist." No such option for moving song within playlist, only the up and down arrow which moves song from top to bottom list, so if it is #4 from top it will move to #4 from bottom. Stupid I know. I spent over an hour with Apple support, reinstalled itunes, restarted and rebooted computer. Networked with my laptop which is running 10.6.8 and itunes 10.4 and it can drag and drop. The final Apple support solution was to reinstall my operating system. I would prefer not to. Any other ideas?

    After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

  • Itunes 10.6.3 - Just update to the new Itunes and the album artwork is not sticking anymore... I upload the artwork and when I change songs and go back the art is gone. Anyone with similar issue ?

    Itunes 10.6.3 - Just update to the new Itunes and the album artwork is not sticking anymore... I upload the artwork and when I change songs and go back the art is gone. Anyone with similar issue ?

    I have this issue.  Album artwork was totally fine before.  After this update, it is all messed up and even got messed up when transferred to my iphone.
    iTunes doesn't have the artwork anymore, but then iPhone has it but shows wrong artwork with wrong albums.
    Please fix!

  • Does the iPod nano keep changing songs if I keep it in my pocket?

    I'm not going to be running or gymming with the iPod nano in my pocket. It is mostly for home use. I just wanted to know that since there is no HOLD/LOCK button, it may keep changing songs if put in a tight pocket while walking or travelling. Is that the case?
    Also, should I buy it for home use? (With the occasional outdoor trip? Or do you think I just stick to my laptop)

    If you have Shake to Shuffle turned off and you push the sleep button it shouldn't change songs in your pocket. Mine doesn't.

  • I am no longer able to change songs using my headphones

    After updating to iOS 6.0 on my iphone 4S I am no longer able to change songs using the headphone controls and when i double click on the home button it no longer allows me to turn my music on and off without unlocking the screen and going into the music app on the phone.
    Any ideas why this is?  Is it a known bug?

    Start by opening Disk Utility, from Applications > Utilities, then select the internal storage MacIntosh HD, and then Repair Permissions.  You should see some printer libraries noted as having the wrong permissions, that may be part of the problem.
    Be sure you have the latest printer/scanner drivers installed by going to the Canon site and download the latest available.
    You can also try using the Mac OS X built-in scanning software by going to Applications > Image Capture and see if that handles the scanning for you - works great with my Epson scanner.

  • My Ipod Touch Was dropped and screen is broken. How can I get It Fixed? I cannot Unlock the Ipod Touch, all I can do is play Music and Change Songs.

    I Dropped My Ipod Gen 4 on a Granite Floor and it Spider webbed. Now all I can do is Play songs and change songs from the lock screen. I cannot unlock the Ipod or do anything else. Is there any way for me to get it fixed Cheap???

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

    You can do it at an Apple store by making an appointment:
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    or send it in to Apple. See:

  • Why does my latest generation ipod nano spontaneously change songs

    Why does my latest generation ipod nano spontaneously change songs and what can I do to control or prevent it?

    Seems logical and likely to fix it.  Have 3 locations where it was happening and will test and get you your ten points if all tests well.  Thanks.

  • Itunes resets dock and wallpaper everytime i change songs with keyboard

    hey everyone, im having a problem with this new update. ok itunes works fine and everything but when i change songs in the application, or on the keyboard, the dock and my desktop reloads. when i mean by reloading the dock disappears and raises up, my wallpaper does the same

    Silly question: WHY are you deleting music from the
    iTunes library? Can't you just let the library
    grow?
    Not silly at all. Over the years I have undertaken the gargantuan task of converting my entire CD collection to mp3. It's a huge collection and a massive set of mp3s. More than I care to keep on my PC hard drive. So, from time to time I move some from external hard disk storage onto my PC's hard drive. So, I don't really want the library to grow as much as I want it to be fluid. But I don't necessarily want to remove ALL the songs currently on my mp3 player when I add new ones. Other mp3 players I have owned were a little more flexible in this regard. Heck, even the $50 Disney mp3 player I just bought my 7 year old for Christmas is more flexible than the Shuffle.
    You should ONLY have to add the deleted songs back
    to the library AND Shuffle... I suggest you think
    about trading up to a Nano which functions more like
    you would like the Shuffle to do.
    Naah, too many mp3 thingies in the house now as it is. I'll just have to learn to adapt.

  • Using other podcasts/Changing songs within a playlist

    Can anyone give me the 411 on how to change songs within a playlist once you have a workout going?

    hiya!
    hmmmmm.
    could you possibly send us a screenshot of the playlist as it shows up when you have it selected in your itunes sourcelist? (that might help with trying to work out what might be going on.) for instructions on screenshots, see:

  • Change Song Order

    This seems like a newbie question but...
    I downloaded an album from eMusic. However, when viewed by 'Name' the tracks are not in the correct order in the Content Pane. I tried to drag a track to the correct position but it 'springs' back and won't move. On the other hand, they are in the correct order when sorted by 'Artist'. Short of creating a playlist, how does one change song/track order? Or, should I just use 'Artist' order and be happy?
    Running iTunes 7. Thx for any help!

    However, when viewed by 'Name' the tracks are not in the correct order
    Of course not. They are sorted on the column you have selected to sort on.
    Sort on Album, Track or *Album by Artist* columns to sort by Track #.
    Short of creating a playlist, how does one change song/track order?
    Change the fields or select a different column to sort on. However, you cannot drag songs up/down unless it is playlist and you have selected the very first column.
    Or, should I just use 'Artist' order and be happy?
    When you sort on Artist, they are in track # order. Isn't that what you want?

  • VERY Slow Respons When Changing Songs on iPod

    My work computer is a Windows Vista machine, with Vista, SP 2 installed. I installed iTunes 8.2.0.23 this morning, upgrading from version 8.1.1.10. The new version works well when I play songs stored to the library on my hard drive, but I find that it has a VERY slow response when changing songs that I play from my iPod Touch. At one point, it took 17 seconds to change to the next song in the iPod's library. It changes instantaneously when I play songs from the library stored on my HDD. The iPod Software is version 2.2.1.
    Can someone please offer insight?
    Is there a way to download and install iTunes 8.1.1.10? I had no problems with that version.

  • Why isn't my f8 key working to change songs?

    why isn't my f8 key working to change songs?

    contact Apple Support: your retailer or http://www.apple.com/support/imac/intel/contact/
    If they cannot fix it, you may need a new keyboard.
