Is it possible to play just one podcast at a time?

Since upgrading to the latest iTunes (on a Snow Leopard machine), I can no longer listen to just one podcast. After one finishes, it goes on to whatever it thinks is next, meaning I cannot start a podcast to listen while going to sleep, have to return podcasts that began without my intention back to unlistened, etc. This has never happened before and I've checked all of the settings.
Thanks for any help.

This irritating 'facility' was introduced in iTunes 11, and has caused endless complains. The easiest workaround is to create a playlist and drag just one episode to it, and play it from there. You can then delete it from the playlist (this will not delete it from the Library).
Another method is a neat AppleScript invented by Alexander Ford:

IPod classic 80GB playing just one podcast episode

I upgraded from my Fifth generation iPod and was wondering if it was possible to set my iPod Classic 80GB to play just one podcast episode and then return to the menu? It seems like the default is to move to the next podcast episode after the prior one is finished. Thanks

Yes, turn on shuffle song/albums! I know - that makes no sense
Either:
1. use the Settings menu, go to shuffle and turn it on, or;
2. while playing a song press the select (centre) button until the shuffle option appears and then turn it on.
Then when you play a Podcast the display will show 1 of 1 (instead of the 1 of X that you see now!) and at the end of that one episode, it will stop.
One important thing to note though, there is a shuffle option on the *Main Menu* but if you use that to start shuffle, it will not change the Podcasts to play-one-episode only. (For this reason, I removed the shuffle option from the *Main Menu* .)
I only found this by accident - if it's documented, I can't find it!

Hot do I play just one podcast and stop automatically?

I'd like to be able to play a single podcast and then stop. If the podcast is one of several, it will play them sequentially according to the date. It will automatically play the next podcast even if it's already been listened to.
I would like to to stop after one play. Shuffle and repeat are off.

How to play just one song at a time

I have been looking around in iTunes to see how in the heck I can tell it to only play one song at a time when I double click a song in my library (and not the next song). Anybody have any idea if this is even possible? Am I overlooking something?

If you don't use the checkboxes for any other purpose then ctrl+click any checkbox to check/uncheck all visible items. If all items are unchecked iTunes will play any track you double-click on and then stop. As and when you want to listen to an album or a playlist straight through you can make use of the Up Next feature which plays all tracks added to it regardless of checked status.

How can I get my iPad to play just one song from my playlist and then stop automatically?

I am a music teacher and I use the iPod on my iPad to play songs in class. I have a long playlist of songs to choose from in each class, and I want to play just one song at a time. I want to be able to start one song from my playlist and then walk away from my iPad and have it stop automatically when that song is over. (I know how to make it repeat the same song over and over, but tha'ts not what I need. I also know how to push "pause," but I don't want to have to walk away from the children to do it.) How can I make it play one song from a playlist at a time?

I don't believe that there is a way to do that except, perhaps, creating a separate Playlist for each song.

IPhone 5. Prior to the iPhone 5, I could listen to podcasts one after the other without doing anything. Now it will only play one podcast at a time, then I have to click on the next one. Not a great feature when driving. TIA, Sarah

How do I get it to just play through all the podcasts that I've downloaded just like my 1st gen?
Group and order your podcasts to a playlist. Then play them from the playlist.

How do I play one Podcast at a time?

My old IPod played one Podcast at a time. My new 160 Classic plays them continually. Is there a way to get my new IPod to play one Podcast at a tme?

Turn on *shuffle songs* and then start the Podcast episode you want. The display should say "1 of 1" because all Podcasts are set to *Skip on shuffle* so the one you're playing is the only option for the iPod.

Is it possible to download just one playlist onto my husbands new ipod nano

Is it possible to download just one playlist onto my husbands new ipod nano (16gb) from my Macbook pro version 10.6.8. and is so how?

Hello sylviafromkendal,
With an iPod, you are able to sync music from multiple iTunes libraries to the device. If the iPod is configured to manually manage the content, then please follow the directions in the first article below. If that is not the case, then you will need to enable the manually manage music and videos option is turned on.
Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

I usually have my music on shuffle but since playing just one album it now will not shuffle all. Shuffle and shuffle all do exactly the same with no differences. Seems to have happened after upgrade

How to play just one song?

How can I get my iPod to play just one musical piece--to not automatically go on and play every song after it continuously? I listen to classical and symphonies can be 40-60 minutes long. I would like it to stop after one so I can then choose another. Can I set it to stop after each selection?

What happens if you go into the artist or album lis and juts pick the one album it is on? I am fairly sure that when you play an album, it plays everything in the album and then stops.
So if your symphony is a single album, you should be able to pick the album and play it that way (vs. going in and searching for the song in the big song list).

Possible to sync just ONE Gmail contact group?

So I'm wondering if it's possible to synchronize just one Gmail contact group with my Blackberry contacts. Like, I have about 15 Gmail contact groups -- one group for co-workers, one group for publicists who send me press releases, one group for friends, etc. I only want the addresses in my friends group to be sync'd with my Blackberry. Is this possible? Or do I have to let them all sync, and then manually delete the contacts I don't want from my Blackberry?

Hey eggcream,
The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
This is a confusing statement. Can really move the rental between devices or not???

If you originally downloaded it to a computer, yes. If you originally downloaded it to an iOS device, probably not; if you want to try anyway, use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.
