Ipod Repeat Problem

on the old ipod (mini and downwards) when you select the ipod to repeat one song it repeats just that song untill you click the skip button to go to the next track. but on the new ipod video you cant do that. i have tried all the settings i could think of. anyone who knows a way around this should please reply

If I remember correctly, if you go into the settings screen, under "Repeat" it gives you the option of "One" or "All". By setting it to One, you should be able to cycle a particular track.
Hope this helps!

  • Ford Voice Control & iPod playlist problems

    Ford Voice Control & iPod playlist problems
    I am having problems with the voice control system and my video ipod (5th gen) in a new Ford Focus Coupè-Convertible which also has Bluetooth phone conectivity ( works great with my iPhone 3G) as well as USB & Voice Control
    This is all done through a Sony audio unit (model Sony 6CD DAB) which has a Six disc CD changer built in, as well as the usual FM & AM Radio bands as well as DAB Radio.
    My problem relates to the voice control of my ipod and playlists.
    Now some commands work just great For example if I say the following sequence ( which the unit repeats back to me at each stage) it works great:
    "External Device"
    "iPod"
    "Play"
    All works well as it starts playing whatever playlist the iPod was in prior to connection to the unit, or if no playlist had been selected it just plays the whole contents of the iPod. - It also works fine with the commands "Shuffle" or "Repeat".
    But according to the user manual I am supposed to be able to play or select a specific playlist by voice command using the following syntax as quoted from the manual:
    '...create playlists named with the structure "Ford<*>" where <*> is a number 1-10. For example "Ford7" without any spaces between "Ford" and the number.
    So I made several playlist called
    Ford1
    Ford2
    Ford3
    and so on up to Ford10.
    Now according to the voice commands list I should say the following phrases which like before, are repeated back to me by the system:
    "External Device"
    "iPod"
    "Playlist"
    Then the unit responds with
    "Playlist Number Please"
    Then according to the manual I should say the following:
    But when I say either
    'Ford1'
    Or
    '1'
    Or any right up to 'Ford10' / '10'
    It responds bystating that playlist number (X) not available.
    I have also tried with the quotation marks ("") around the name eg "Ford1", but that has not worked either.
    So I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this problem and knew a solution, or could tell me where I am going wrong.
    Although my car is a UK model, I believe that this voice control system is available with Sony units in American cars as well.
    Hope you can help as this is driving me nuts!
    Thanks

    Hi Drusus.
    I also have a European Ford (Focus ST - 2009) with the same problem.
    Have you found any solution to the problem, or know if its possible to contact Ford...?

  • Ipod syncing problems...?

    Im having several ipod syncing problems. I have an Ipod touch, 4th gen with the standard USB cable that comes with to charge it and sync it with. Today, i plugged it into my computer like normal to sync some new songs onto it from itunes. But, it started acting up. First, it kept syncing on and off, and the sync sound wouldnt stop- it wouldnt stay synced. then, later, when it finally did, not long after it said "this device does not support charging," and itunes didnt recognize my ipod anymore, so i couldnt sync my songs. is there any way i can fix this? thanks in advance.

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • [iPod 5G] Problems with Windows' iTunes keeping it synced.

    I've been struggling to get my iPod 5G working on my windows computer. This is what happens EVERY time:
    - I connect my iPod, it gives me "Cannot read the content of the iPod XXX...."
    - I Restore my iPod (have also formatted it completely several times).
    - the iPod shows up in iTunes and it syncs.
    - I take the iPod out and i reconnect and it starts all over again and i get: "Cannot read the content of the iPod..."
    Connecting the iPod to my MacBook will make it appear in iTunes and I'll be able to see the music and update it.
    Things i've tried (in semi-random order, except for the last one):
    - Updated the iPod (1.2.1)
    - Restored the iPod about 10x
    - Different USB port and different iPod connection cable
    - Erased the iPod (3x): using Windows' format tool 1x and the Disk Utility in OS X 2x.
    - Uninstalled iTunes, Reinstalled.
    - Fresh install of Windows XP.
    Could this be an iPod related problem? (it seems to work fine on my Mac)
    Could this be an iTunes 7 related problem?
    The iPod is brand-new, i got it after my old one had gotten a white screen that wouldn't go away. Could it be a faulty iPod they gave me?
    P.S. Please don't suggest to 'just sync it with your mac' because it should work with the Windows computer that holds all my music.

    hi chris
    the difference is:
    at home i've started it and it has been running 12 hrs without touching it
    outside i've used it while running through the park five times, so i started and stopped it five times without touching it otherwise (didn't change songs)
    do these five times starting/stopping waste 8,5 hrs battery runtime?

  • 5g Ipod.  Problem with Firmware 1.2.1

    Like many out there, I upgraded my iTunes software to ver. 7 and subsequently the iPod firmware to ver. 1.2.1. This resulted in the iPod "freezing" problem many others have reported. I've gone through the exercise (twice) of uninstalling iTunes 7, installing the version of iTunes on my installation disk (I believe it's earlier than 6.0.5) and then installing firmware provided in Updater 2006-6-28 (1.1.2). Problem is that iTunes doesn't recognize anything in my music or video library and the only way (so far) to solve this is to upgrade back to Itunes 7.0.2 but not to upgrade to firmware 1.2.1. My iPod now works but when I sync to iTunes, many of the videos (TV shows) I've purchased won't transfer to my iPod. The reason given is that my iPod software is too old. This has also occured with any new video purchase.
    Has anyone experienced something similar and is there a solution to this problem.

    I am having this problem as well. It was irritating me so bad that i just reverted to 1.0 since i don't have any other version availible because itunes doesn't save the updates. I tried all of the 5"R"s and it still locked up as soon as i booted my iPod up.

  • FFox 3.6.8. Repeated problem. I close it, then hours later try to relaunch it, and it says it's still running. So I have to End Process in Task Mgr. Also, plug-container keeps running and takes LOTS of memory. Ergo, 3.6.8 is a step backward.

  • Repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes

    I am having multiple issues with the iTunes store currently. I have spoken with an Apple Expert on August 14, 2010 (case number available if needed). Although he was very good at helping me to the best of his ability, he referred me to iTunes Store Customer Service, which I previously was in contact with.
    I have 2 types of repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes Store.
    _Problem One - (1) Downloading From iTunes Store_
    I have 1610 missing files from my iTunes folders. I created a list of missing items by following these steps:
    +If for any reason you find yourself with random missing tracks, (or are trying to recover from a dying hard drive like me), there is an easy way to isolate those missing tracks.+
    +1. Create a standard playlist called "Not Missing".+
    +2. Drag your entire library into that playlist. Missing tracks cannot+
    +be copied to a playlist.+
    +3. Create a smart playlist called where you select the following conditions in the options window for the new smart playlist:+
    +*dropdown menu* PLAYLIST+
    +*dropdown menu* IS NOT+
    +*dropdown menu* NOT MISSING.+
    +4. Rename the smart playlist "Missing"+
    +5. Right Click the "Missing" playlist+
    +6. Click the "Export..." option+
    +7. Select the Plain Text option and Desktop location+
    My missing playlistable items represent a better part of a decades worth of audiobook files, transfered files from my PC days, etc... i loved my - now missing - Doctor Who and Torchwood purchases from iTunes.
    I have already read the Trouble Shooting, checked Time Machine Backup, and been walked through replacing the preferences list. The missing file path from the "get info" options in iTunes points towards a non-existant file.
    _Problem Two (2) Downloading From iTunes Store_
    I have had problems downloading files from iTunes for months. I first noticed it with the TV Show "Avatar: The Last Airbender". Lately, when I download from the (non-music) part of the store, the majority of files are downloaded and then immediately not found. This has been prompting iTunes to repeat the download. Until I force quit itunes and *potentially cry*.
    There have been multiple iTunes store purchases of audio books recently. If I reported the missing file immediately, I can contact iTunes support to repost the file and that usually fixes the issue. But today, I went to go rewatch "Torchwood: Children of Earth" and noticed Problem One.
    _Hind Sight_
    If provided with a spreadsheet of my iTunes Store purchase history, I can write a vlookup( formula in excel to compare the list against my exported missing list so a shortlist of what is missing from just my iTunes Store purchase history can be created (hint: it's the majority of items from the list, others are years worth of files from my PC days). If we could do that, could iTunes make my missing purchases available?
    Then we can focus on purely, trying to figure out why they went missing in the first place - so we can prevent it again & possibly help others from running into the same.
    Plea
    I strongly suspect the two issues are related to a root cause ... in addition to my user error in file management of backups ... what is going on?

    iTunes Support (Eric) emailed me some instructions. I am posting, in hopes that this will help others.

  • Macbook Pro Key repeat problem

    I've had my MacBook Pro for almost 2 years now but it's recently started to have keyboard repeat issues. The keys are not physically stuck but behave like they are, in a totally random manner - including the delete key and the space bar. Messages will end up lookinggggggg a bittttttt like thissssssssssssss. Very annoying.
    This tends to be accompanied by a sluggish trackpad too. Then after a while - it behaves normally again.
    I have nothing else attached - anyone any ideas?
    Thanks

    I've been having an occasional key repeat problem for a while, I'd say for a year. I'll be typing, and then I'll stop, and the last key I pressed starts repeating and keeps going until I press another key. I've also seen it miss characters sometimes. This happens more often than a key repeating by itself. I'll be sure I pressed a key, but I get "wrds like ths." Maybe I'm just not pressing a key "deep" enough. Sometimes I've tried typing a bit slower and that seems to help.
    I regret not bringing my laptop in for someone to look at earlier, but I've been very busy for the last couple years. The problem hasn't occurred often enough to make it a problem that I felt compelled to solve right away. It just feels like an annoyance, like, "Come on. This shouldn't have made it off the line like this!" I don't want to start a "war", but I had a Windows laptop before my Mac and I never had these problems with the keyboard. There are other attributes I like about my Mac, so it's annoying but not a big deal for me.
    I usually run VMWare Fusion 2.0, and I've suspected that it's a culprit. The problem doesn't just occur on web pages, though that's where I usually notice it when it happens. I've seen it in TextEdit as well. What I notice is it happens when I've got something else running in the background taking up CPU time. Maybe the computer is swapping to/from disk. Sometimes I've seen it happen on a web page with some slow Javascript on it, again taking up CPU time. It seems to me it's a matter of the hardware or software missing the signal from the keyboard. Perhaps it's related to the "keyboard sleep" problem, which I've also seen, where the keyboard and trackpad just go dead. In this case I put the computer to sleep for a bit and then wake it back up. That brings both back for a bit, but it usually reoccurs, in which case I reboot it.
    I've been hoping that Apple would come out with a patch for the key repeat problem. So far I haven't seen it. Would an upgrade to Snow Leopard fix it?

  • Ipod-a problem machine?

    Hello everbody,
    i´m a new 4gb nano user. After reading some posts here, i have a doubt...correct me if i´m wrong...but are ipods a problem machine? because all i can read is problems problems problems.
    thanks a lot

    No, they are not. You have to put it into perspective.
    1. Nobody in here is sayingg "yeah, I love my iPod". They come here for technical help when they have a problem.
    2. Most of the questions asked in here are solved.
    3. Consider how many iPods there are in the world (upwards of 60 million). Then consider how many questions there are in these forums. Then take into account the fact that many of these questions are not related to the iPod, or that many are looking for advice on whether or not to buy an iPod, which model, etc.
    I have had 5 iPods in my house, and only once did I have any sort of problem (due to a faulty iPod hardware piece, but Apple sent me a replacement in less than 2 weeks).

    hi there my ipod repeats songs and will not shuffle please help?from ankav

    Check to make sure the repeat setting has not been enabled.  To do this, tap the artwork one time from the Now Playing screen to bring up additional controls.  You will see an icon with two arrows going in a circle.  Tap this icon until it turns white, mean it is Off.

  • Having Windows & iPods detection problems?

    Try Microsoft article below - has to do with iPod detection problem. Try This...
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925196

    Sounds like there may be a problem with your install ..
    perhaps you have two
    different play version on your PC (eg you've installed a
    newer version, but
    old one didn't fully uninstall itself).
    One possible solution (if that is the case) is to run the
    uninstall utility
    from Adobe, then search your harddrive for any files matching
    *flash*.ocx ..
    and if they are actually flash players (look at properties
    version info tab
    to ensure they are macromedia/adobe flash player ocx's -
    don't want to kill
    something to do with flash memory (say)) then delete them.
    Also kill off
    the c:\windows\system\macromed\flash folder .. so then you
    have no flash
    player ocx left. Then go to the Adobe web site and
    re-download/install the
    latest Flash Player. NOTE: if you do this, be very careful
    you only delete
    things that can safely be deleted without causing problems
    elsewhere.

    my ipod having problem in putting up songs. and i cant sync the songs. what will i do?

    back up the device in icloud and restore it back to factory settings after doing so setup as new and see if the issue is still there. If it's not merge your icloud info back into your device by just loging in with your apple id after the the setup is complete.

  • PT880 + SATA repeating problems!

    Hello
    I'm a new member in this forum, I have read some threads and I was impressed by the answers  - ultra professional!  
    I am a part of a company that resells MSI products among others.
    We have sold a lot of MSI Configurations including PT-880 mobo's.
    We have been selling these board extensivly for 6 months & we have a repeating problem specificly with the combination of S-ATA Disks & MSI PT880 mobo.
    The problem: Custumers keep returning with OS that won't start up (It gets stuck in the loading screen) or the OS boots but it doesn't load it loops constantly.
    After diagnsing the systems we have always found Bad sectors in the HDD.
    It didn't happen to custumers with ATA drives It didn't happen to custumers with intel's 865PE chipset. But with the VIA PT880 & SATA disk it happens repeatedly like a disease.
    It is well known that S-ATA is a new technology & not yet perfected yet, but this problem is beyond this.
    All returning computers are ofcourse Flashed with the newest BIOS version
    If you have any suggestions, questions  or Ideas considering what is the main source of this problem I would be happy to be advised...  

    Hi,
    DO NOT use 1.5 Bios.......it works but is slow on the booting/post side...
    1.4 is fast but has niggles with Prescott and SATA.....
    1.7 is BEST and TESTED..........
    Also, please check PSU can support min of 18Amps on +12V.....
    With 1.7 Bios installed you should have no problems with hardware on this mainboard...... (Have tested with an Intel EE cpu.....lot of money too have lying around..... )
