ITunes plays the same song over and over again.
I have created several playlists on my Itunes for Windows. I want the songs to play at Random...but it plays the same song over and over again. If I hit the random button, it will play a different song, but it will then play that song over and over and over again. So, if I want to go to the next song, there is always a requirement that I manually set it to the next song.
It's odd because I have been using Itunes while listening to music on my computer and this never happened before.
Any thoughts?

Sounds like you have the repeat single track selected

ITunes 7.0.2 sometimes plays the same song over again while shuffling
I recently upgraded to iTunes 7.0.2 and have started to notice an annoying problem: when I am listening to a playlist in shuffle mode, iTunes sometimes won't go to the next random song and will instead repeat the same song I just listened to. This seems to happen maybe once for every ten songs I listen to. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know a way to get around it?
I have the Playback -> Smart Shuffle preference set to random. I've not changed any settings since I upgraded, and this was never a problem before.
Also, the playlists I listen to are usually off of my iPod, if that helps.Sounds like you have the repeat single track selected

- First try resetting the iPod to make it visible in iTunes
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try placing the iPod in recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Last try placing the iPod in DFU mode:

TS5181 Why does iTunes Radio play the same songs over and over?
I've been listening to the Chill Out Jazz station at work and love it, but it keeps playing the same songs over and over now...for weeks. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've found the same thing on the 80's channels...they just play the same 15 or 20 songs over and over.
There is a Repeat setting. It can be set to repeat ONE (repeat current song), ALL (repeat current list), or OFF (do not repeat). It is probably set for ONE.
On the nano's Now Playing screen, there is a symbol that looks the two arrows in a loop. You may need to swipe the screen to see it. Tap that button to change the Repeat setting. -
How do I change the settings on my ipod so that it plays continuous music. Right now, it plays the same song over and over, even if I select the shuffle icon. It used to show the continuous play icon, it doesn't anymore.
Right click on a movie(in iTunes), and click "get info" then go to album artwork and add the artwork that you want...

I have a ipod nano, and I purchased a Bose portable sound system to play my ipod on
but it will not shuffle the music, it will play the same song over and over, until I hit the
next song on the remote or do it manually. Does anybody have a solution?????Sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See your iPod's User Guide for information on how to turn it off.

My ipod touch will only play the same song over and over unless you manually fast forward?
My ipod touch will not shuffle through the songs. It just plays the same song over and over. All that shows at the top is the info picture. How do I fix this?
Do this:
Play a song.
Tap the screen once so you see the scrubber.
To the left of the scrubber, there's a set of two arrows going in a circle - if it's blue, it's set to repeat.
Click on it once to make it white - no repeat. -

When I try to play music on my phone, it won't switch songs -- just plays the same song over and over again. This is true whether shuffle is turned on or not. How do I make this stop? This phone is brand new!

Why does my iphone keep playing the same song over and over instead of moving on to the next selection?
Because you have repeat on. Turn it off.

Genius Mixes: Mine keep playing the same songs over and over again!
Am I doing something wrong? I constantly update my Genius but each of my mixes continually play the same exact (like 20) songs over and over again! It's so annoying!
Also, is there anyway to change up the mixes? For instance, if I don't like the mix (aka I don't like the bands that the mix was based off of) can I change it and have iTunes base the mix on some other bands?
Thanks!I have this problem, too, when playling a Genius Mix on my iPhone. Makes them much less interesting to use.

I'm a new Zumba instructor and have to come up with playlists for my routines. I made 2 playlists on ITunes and put them on my Ipod. Everytime I want to play it, only one song from the list plays over and over. The other songs do not. How do I get the songs to play the way I have them set up??
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:

For other music you need to get them from where you got them before. -
