Itouch keeps repeating same song - will not advance to next song

Hi,
My itouch, after working fine for over one year, now will not advance to the next song automatically. It keeps repeating the next song.

you haven't got the repeat button 'on' by accident have you

My ipod will not advance to next song, how can I fix this?

My ipod nano will not advance to next song, neither in regular play or shuffle. Any ideas on how to get it to work?

Hi, I'm new to this and for some reason my images are not appearing to full scale on adobe premiere cs6. This is really annoying as I am trying to make a stop motion video but I can't see what I'm doing. Please reply soon, this is an important project. Thanks
Your sequence settings and clip settings are not matching. To make them match, right click on a clip and choose New Sequence from Clip and a new sequence will be created based on your clip settings.

The songs on my playlist just keep repeating. They will not advance to the next song unless I hit next. Is there a repeat setting I can turn off? Never had this problem before today.

How do I get my music to stop repeating? The same song just keeps playing over and over unless I manually advance it. This happens whether I am on a playlist or not. All was fine when I used it yesterday..

Check the repeat icon to see if it is turned off.
Check in the Music chapter here: iPhone User Guide (For iOS 6.1 Software)

It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.

ITunes for Windows will not play the next song in the list

Hello,
I cannot get iTunes to play the next song in my list (general list, not a playlist). The random icon and/or repeat icon is not blue. Every time I press the next button (two arrows to the right), it picks another song from my list, instead of the one that is directly beneath the one that is playing.
I have iTunes version 11.0.1.12.
Has anyone have this happen before and how did you solve it? Thank you for all your replies.

One song keeps repeating instead of moving on to the next song, what setting have I got wrong

I have two Ipod touchs and one keeps repeating the last song instead of moving on to the next one, what setting have I got wrong.

try to change the setting of your ipod shuffle button located directly below of the left time counter when you are playing music. The shape of this, is look like oval with arrow.

When I play my music from my playlist it will not advance to the next song, it just repeats the song over. I have to advance to the next song manually.

When I am playing my music it will not advance to the next song, it just keeps repeating the song. The only way to go to the next song is to do it manually. It just started this after the last update. How do I fix it, hard to listen to at the gym.

Check the song and see if repeat is activated. Down in the bottom left corner is repeat when the music is running. It would have a colored box around it if it is active. It would either read Repeat Song, or Repeat Playlist.

I had this issue with my 6th generation nano. It was driving me nuts, until I realized that somehow locked the repeat button on. Selecting one song rather than a selection will cause whatever song you have selected to play over and over and over and over..

My new nano keeps repeating same song...how do I get it to go to next on list or at least duffle?

My new nano keeps repeating same song...how do I get it to go to next on list or at least duffle?

I have an iPod Nano 7th generation and I know of a couple of ways to shuffle the playlists. When you select the Playlist, from Home>Music>Playlists, there is a shuffle feature at the top of the screen that will shuffle that individual playlist. Also, if you tap the screen quickly while the one song is repeating, a menu will come up with the ability to select repeat, which is the icon on the left. I'm guessing if you were to tap the repeat button it would turn the repeat feature off. Another way to shuffle is to shake the Nano while the screen is lighted, and a song is playing. This shaking will shuffle ALL playlists. Of course you need to have the shuffle feature activated which you can do from Home>Settings>Music and making sure the "Shake to shuffle feature" is ON.

Hello, I have songs that show they are "Waiting" for download from the cloud but they are greyed out. Some songs in one album are done others in the same album will not download. It is not a time function because i have been working on this for weeks. I have allowed my compter to run for days and the songs are still not accessible. I have a Match subscription and Match is working. If I click on the "Genre" link the greyed out songs show that they are ready for download from the cloud but I cannot download them. I have downloaded over 1500 other songs, so I am trying to understand what is going on here. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me.
Thanks

I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

I am not computer savvy. I have a second generation itouch, and have never had any problems. Just recently, certain songs will not play. It will skip the song to the next one. Certain videos will not play. The message, "This movie could not be played

I am not computer savvy. I have a second generation itouch and have never had any problems with it until now. When I try to play certain songs, it will not play the song and skip to the next song selection. When I try to play certain videos, the message "This movie could not be played" appears. I contacted a tech spec who said it was possibly a format problem. How do i fix this?

This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

IPOD KEEPS REPEATING SAME SONG

ipod 16GB keeps repeating same song

While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
Any luck there?

HT4528 I've purchased a few dozen songs from itunes on my iphone. A few of these songs will not download properly and I keep getting a "unable to download song" message. My account info is correct and full signal.

i do understand that. if you purchased the music on the phone. its still available to you. if you go in itunes on your computer. go to purchases. there should be all the music you have purchased. there you can download the song if it isn't already and then sync it to your phone which will add the song to the phone. have you tried to power off phone and then try to download again. the itunes way is just another option.
