Iphone goes to sleep while music is playing

iphone goes to sleep while music is playing
How can I play music without it going to sleep and stopping?

Going to sleep means the screen is off so music should not stop when the screen turns off.
Any change after powering your iPhone off and on and/or a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

OSX goes to sleep while VLC still playing

Hi,
for some reason OSX seems to enter sleep mode even though VLC is still playing music. SO I keep finding myself haveing to get my computer out of sleep mode and restart playback. Very annoying... I might not have noticed it before, but I can't remember it doing this until today...
Is there any way to tell OSX not to enter sleep mode while VLC is playing?

IPod screen goes to sleep while playing

Hello,
I have what I believe is either the 6th or 7th generation iPod 120gig. I just picked it up used and it is in good condition.
The problem I have is, while I have it playing on my Bose system, the songs play, but I can't see what song is actually playing like my 1st generation iPod does. This one, the screen goes to sleep while the songs play. is there a fix for this possibly? I have many songs and it's always nice to just look over and see what is playing.
Thank you,
JG

Your problem is that your iPod is not sensing that your headset is inserted. There is a pin inside the headphone port on the Nano that senses if it is inserted fully. If it does not sense anything, it will pause playback to save battery power when the screen dims. Here are the solutions:
Insert it fully. This will fix it for most of you. Press that thing in there all the way. You should feel and hear a full click when it is fully seated. If you can see ANY silver of the headset jack, it is not fully inserted.
Debris inside the headset port. If you are totally unable to push the headset jack all the way, the most likely problem is that you have crud inside your headphone jack. Try blowing it out or slapping it against your palm with the headset port facing your palm to try and get the stuff out. If you look into he jack with a light, you should be able to see to the bottom. The entire inside of the headset port is white, so if it looks dark at the bottom, that is the crud that is keeping your nano from working.
Headset jack or plug issue. If you cannot solve the problem with 1 or 2, then there is likely something physically wrong with either the headset jack on your headphones or the headset port on the nano.
If none of the above works, you need to take it to the Apple store or wherever you purchased it. I think they are still under warranty.

My new nano keeps going into sleep mode every copy of minutes while music is playing. I can't figure out how to stop this. The user guide isn't too helpful. Any ideas?

This is usually a sign that your iPod's headphones are not plugged in all the way. Make sure that you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug. You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when inserting the headphones letting you know that they have been fully seated.

My imac g5 goes to sleep while in use. typically when im playing games

For the last several months, my mac has been going to sleep during use. Typically when im playing games, like second life, or in any type of programs, but it has also been going to sleep while im watching videos on youtube or hulu. It's getting worse and worse, and once it goes to sleep the first time, it doesnt stay on long afterwards. When browsing the internet, its fine. I've recently backed up 40,000 images that I had on my computer, and deleted for more memory space. but it didnt stop it from going into sleep mode, it just doesnt go as quickly as it was before. I was told that it was a memory problem, but since i deleted all of the images off of my computer, the problem still persists. I even turned sleep mode to "never". Here are some of my computer stats:
Memory: 512 MB
Processor: 2.1 GHz PowerPC G5
Space Free: 104.18 GB
Space utilized: 128.58 GB
My monitor stays warm, never gets hot, but sometimes i can hear the fan blowing loudly when it goes into sleep mode
If anyone could help, i would greatly appreciate it =)

The temps are a bit higher than I'd expect under normal circumstances, and too high while playing games, but what is the room temp where it is?
I def. think its a temp thing now. but why does it only raise when im playing games or watching videos online?
Games tipically press the CPU, Video Card, RAM, and everything else much harder than most apps.
It may be a Fan not working properly, or just dust buildup.
Boot off your Install Disk while holding down the *d key*, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD.
Report any errors it finds.

Turning iPod Touch off while music is playing

This is less a pressing problem than it is a slight annoyance, but I'm curious to know if it's happening to anyone else and if there's an easy fix. I've had my 8GB iPod Touch for three days, and I've noticed that if I shut it off while music is playing, when I turn it back on the song that is playing won't be the one I had been listening to, but one I listened to like three or four songs ago. This hasn't happened just once or twice, it's every time I turn the iPod off and then on. This Touch is the latest in a long line of iPods I've owned, and every one has always turned back on with the same song playing that I had been listening to when I turned it off. Is this some weird memory problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Elias,
I think what you describe is just the way the Touch works.
I hadn't really noticed it because I haven't turned my Touch completely of for months and months ('til just now), I just put it to sleep.
There is no need to turn it completely off unless your not going to use it for maybe a week or so, as I say, I just put it to sleep when I'm not using it and haven't had any problems with battery life. When I wake it up it starts off back where I left it.
If did plan to turn it off it would be because it would not be used for a long time and then I wouldn't even remember what was playing after that long.
Hope this info is of some use,
Dud.

No progress bar while music is playing?

since i've upgraded my 3g to 2.2, i've noticed that while music is playing, there is no progress bar @ the top(like the volume bar @ the bottom).
my g/f also has her iphone 3g running 2.2, but her progress bar is still there, along with the little genius logo, which i also no longer have...
is this a setting issue, or a firmware problem?
as a DJ, its helpful to have the progress bar so that i can skip thru a song
thanks for any help

Tap the artwork while the song is playing to display the additional controls.

Why does my podcast go silent when my iphone goes to sleep?

I cured the sleep delay which is working normal now. In order to make this happen I had to re-set the printer to clear the hidden item which was not accessible. (It was not in the que) When the printer was cleared/reset it knocked out the fax modem also which now has to be re-installed. Is there an update to cure this or make the printer glitch accessible. Help is appreciated :-)

Computer goes to sleep while I'm working

Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone can pinpoint my problem and help me fix it.
My computer goes to sleep while I'm working on it.
Just by itself. Sometimes right in a row.
Does anyone know any tips that I can use.
I copied the contents from Console.app
and here is what I found:
sleep demand recorded: Thu Mar 1 08:14:57 2007\n\n
Mar 1 08:49:24 My-G5 EÊæÔ[137]: sleeptime recorded: Thu Mar 1 08:14:57 2007\n\n
Mar 1 08:49:24 My-G5 EÊæÔ[137]: waketime is: Thu Mar 1 08:49:24 2007\n\n

If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
-/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
(username is your name or System Administrators name)
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
Cheers!

How to make the screen dim while music is playing

I can't get the screen to dim while playing music on my iPod Nano. It used to be that the screen dimmed while music was playing until it lit up when I hit a button to change volume, track, etc. This preserved the battery life. It seems that I inadvertantly changed some setting just a few days ago because I saw the apple logo appear on the screen and since then have not been able to figure out how to make the screen dim while playing music. I think the fact that the screen is staying on while I'm listening now is making the battery out very quickly. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thank you!

Hello ZingMA,
You need to reset the backlight timer.
Go to settings, general, and backlight. You should be able to set if from there. I am assuming you have a 6th gen nano. If you have a different model the user manuals have the steps. Found here:

Hope this helps.
