ITunes - Playing Whole Album

I want to play a whole album in iTunes but no matter how I try to configure things, it plays one song at a time and then stops; at which time I have to click on the next cut.
How do you play a whole album continuously from the first to the last track?

Select the album and press play.

Play whole album instead of one song.

Sorry if this is a bit of a newb question but I honestly can't find the answer anywhere online.
I go into my video ipod under an album and I want to play the whole album. I play the first song and it kicks me out to the main menu. How do I get it to continue on to the next song?

I have tried that and it will still only play the one song. Is it a problem with how my songs are formatted in itunes?

How to make library play whole album in order

Does anyone know how i can get my itunes library to play a whole album? I just want to sit here and listen to an album in my library I click on one song and once its played it randomly jumps somewhere else in the library this is so annoying it never used to do this.

Check the bottom left of the screen. If the little symbol with the two arrows crossing paths is blue, click it. That is the shuffle icon, your library must be set to shuffle.

Can't play whole album!

Hi,
Most albums on my iPod play in sequence, i.e. I choose the first track of an album and it continues to play the whole album track by track.
Some albums however only play the track I selected then goes back to the main menu when this has finished. Whatever track I choose the displays reads '1 0f 1' and i can't play thw whole album in sequence.
Any ideas why?
Thanks in anticipation.

However I don't know what's a checkbox?
And commna-click means the cmd-a clicl of the mouse
Yes. You hold down the Command key and with your mouse click the checkbox.
Regards.

Is there a way to play whole albums in random order?

If you change it the shuffle setting to Albums and you make make these selections: Artists > All > All, then press the Play button, iPod will choose an album at random and play it in its entirety. iPod will then shuffle to another album and play it in its entirety. Albums are not repeated until iPod has played through the entire list.

My ipod won't play whole albums, just single songs

Every time that I get to the end of a track/podcast, it simply starts from the beginning, rather than moving onto the next item. What am I doing wrong?

See if anything here helps.
iPod does not play content purchased from the iTMS.

Mac 10.8.5 itunes 11.1.1 Sometimes when I drag an album to my desktop the songs fallout of the album leaving me with individual songs not a single album that I can click to play the whole album.

Sometimes when I drag an album to my desktop the songs fallout of the album, why? This leaves me with individual songs not a single album icon to click? Can you help me get a consistent single button that I can click to play a whole album? [email protected] mac OS 10.8.5 iTunes OS 11.1.1

I'm confused. Are you trying to play the album FROM your desktop?

I try to play an album on ITunes for Windows 7and it plays the first track then randomly goes to a different album and plays the whole of that. Can anyone explain why? Shuffle is turned off....

I am working on a friend of mine's 15g ipod(W/dock connector)and I am having the same trouble except it does it to all the songs. I have tried reseting it multiple times, but to no avail.
I am not sure that this runs on windows XP, it is absolutly archaic (compared to my 5th gen. 30g video).
Help?

How to select a whole album to play without selecting each track individually in iTunes 12.1.2 for Mac book pro OS 10.9.5

The only way that I am able to play a whole album is to select each track to play up next. This extremely tedious. There must be some way to select the whole album to play.

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

Why does iPhone rate whole album when it syncs to iTunes rather than just single song sometimes?

I wasn't sure if this should be an iTunes or iPhone discussion, so here goes!
I am very particular about rating my music. Every day at work, as songs play on my iPhone, I give them a star rating. This star rating then transfers to iTunes when I sync my phone. Most times, these ratings go through just fine. Sometimes, however, rather than just rating a single song with three stars on an album... It'll give the whole album in iTunes three stars. (Three stars is just an example.)
What I mean is that if viewing an album list, the album rating will be hard coded per se on the left and give all the songs three stars even if I never listened to / rated them. I can then click to remove the rating on the album on the left, and the unrated / unplayed songs will lose that hard coded rating and return to no rating.
What am I doing wrong? Lol. It drives me crazy! Once a month I view all my albums as a list so I can remove the hard coded ratings. There are usually six or seven albums that'll have it. I do nothing different on the iPhone that I am aware of.
Has anyone else experienced this situation or have a solution? I'm on an iPhone 4S, latest software. This also occurred with my iPhone 3GS

Still an issue, Apple. iPad with 5.1.1 and I have the same issue. There doesn't appear to be a way to rate a single song.

Why won't iTunes just PLAY an album, in order, from start to finish?!

Very confused....I can't get an album to play through iTunes on my Mac anymore. It used to work just fine but now, no matter what I try, every time I try to play an album iTunes just picks one song at random from the album and plays that. It won't move on to the next one, even if I try to press the button to skip to the next track. It always seems to play the same track and won't let me do anything!
It's really annoying and I can't see what is different from before I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Getting thoroughly disheartend with iTunes lately; wish I had never bothered downloading the latest version-it's horrible!
Can anyone out there help with a straight forward and not-too-technical explanation to help me to be able to play an album, from start to finish , in the order it was made without having to mess about? I am not used to the whole "Apple" way of working yet- previously had a PC with Windows Media Player which worked really easily. iTunes is infuriating me so far!
Thanks!

Open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar and View>Show Status Bar. This will make the new version appear more like earlier versions. Then go to the Controls menu at the top, choose Shuffle and click "Turn Off Shuffle" (if it shows this).

Why are the 3 tracks I bought on iTunes a yr ago are missing from the track list just imported from a CD of the whole album ?

1st time question on here...I bought 3 songs off iTunes from the album Feedback by Jurassic 5 last year and those songs are in my librabry. Sometime later I purchased the whole album but on CD. Tonight when I imported the CD and it asked to replace existing duplicates and I said yes. Now I have two identical albums of Feedback in my library. One album has the tracks I bought from ITunes the second has all the tracks but the ones I bought from itunes. When I select to play either albums only the tracks listed play not the whole orignal album. How do I correct this? I want one album listed with all the orignal tracks. Also i'd preffer to keep the apple lossless version i imported from the CD - not the ITunes version. Thanks folks

I have a similar problem , where I had a cd I imported then bought a bonus track on iTunes not on the cd but belonging to the same album, but iTunes showing it to me as 2 separate albums.
My iTunes on the computer now shows it as 1 album, but when I sync it to me device it is still 2 albums and the album with the 1 song asks me if I want to complete it.
Sorry I have no solution yet, I just wanted to share that I too have a similar problem.

TS3297 When I purchase a whole album why am I unable to play some of the songs? I get a prompt telling me to authorize my computer which I have already done.

Why do I keep getting prompted to authorize some songs when I have purchased a whole album? For example I purchased Return to Cookie Mountain and can only play 5 of the 12 songs. When I try to play the other 7 songs I get a prompt to authorize the computer which I have already done.

When I try to play the other 7 songs I get a prompt to authorize the computer
If only some of tracks from the album are prompting you to do that, that suggests that the tracks are damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

TS1424 I down loaded an album and one of the songs won't play but I can't download just that one song w/o downloading the whole album, what do i do ?

I downloaded an album and one of the songs did not come through very well and will only play 1 min on my itunes and ipod. I can only download the song again by downloading the whole album. what do I do?

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)
