Itunes stopping after every song

Since I upgraded itunes it now just stops after playing a song. It also stops if I hit next or previous while something's playing. It's really annoying! Help!
(edit) I just turned shuffle off and on again and now it's fine >_>;;

ITunes stops after every song

Hey there, sorry for the potential stupid question. I've been using iTunes for a long time now, but I've never encountered this before. Basically, the title says it all. After every song, iTunes goes idle. This occurs in playlists, the library...everywhere. Maybe I checked something random without intending to, but I've looked around and can't figure it out. Any help would be more than, um, helpful. Thanks!

Welcome to Apple's user-to-user discussion forums.
Did you accidently uncheck all the tracks in your library? Are the boxes in front of all the titles unchecked? If so, place your cursor over one of the unchecked boxes and Command-Click. All of the boxes should turn blue and will now contain a checkmark. iTunes will stop if there are no checkmarked tunes to move to after the currently playing track.

TS3274 My iPad plays a song and then stops; I press manually for next song, but it either plays same song, a different song that I pressed, or will play the next song, but keeps stopping after every song I play. Help?

When I go to play songs the iTunes will play a song then stops (repeat all or one song is not on and also shuffle is not on); I manually click for next song an it wll ( play the next song and stops, it will play same song and then stops, or it will play a song randomly and then stops) . Help!

Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Why does iTunes Stop after each song?

I have notice that it's only on songs that is lighter (not the Bold songs). I do have iTunes Match and iCloud, does that have anything to do with it?

Time to learn the "Up Next" feature.
If your music is paused, use right-click (ctrl-click) on a song to "Play Next" (puts on the top of the queue) or "Add to Up Next" (add to the end of the queue).
Go to the "Up Next" Menu in the View Menu (or click the icon in the control bar that looks like three horizontal bars).
Select your song.
In some conditions, the rest of the your playlist will show up below your addition. When you scroll down the Up Next list you may see "Back To: " at the end of the list. Press CLEAR to be sure your selection(s) are the only songs played.

Making I-tunes stop after every song

How can I configure so that the next song doesn't play automatically?

You can do this by unchecking all the boxes next to each song. To uncheck all your songs, hold CTRL and click on any little box next to any song.

Speakers return to default volume after every song

Hello,
I just bought a new Toshiba laptop yesterday, and it is equipped with Windows 8. I have Pandora running on it currently, and whenever a new song begins, the speakers return to some default volume which is too loud for my office. How do I get
the volume to stay at the level I set it at, even when a new song plays?

I play Pandora all the time in IE11 on Windows 8.1 (right now, in fact). It doesn't return to default volume after every song here. I doubt that Pandora's web programming is causing it, at least not directly, or everyone would be seeing
it. You should not expect it to do so.
Edit: I play it via the Desktop IE11. I didn't think to mention it. Is that how you're running it, or are you using the Metro / Modern interface? Try it on the desktop if that's not where you're running it and see if the
behavior is different. Perhaps it's just another problem with the toy interface.

Airtunes-disconnects after every song

Hey,
I just got my airport express, and it has worked perfectly the past few days, now all of a sudden when a song ends, i have to manually skip songs and it will go 'connecting to remote speakers' and start working again. Its a bit random, sometimes it will stop after 2 songs, but mostly after 1...
Hoping its just a simple setting?
Thanks

Itunes stops after a few foto's

Itunes stops after 10 or twelve foto's synchronising with my Apple TV. Therefore other devices aren;t synchronising either!

My PC running windows vista home edition 64-bit system. Itunes version 10.5.0.142. My iPad2 version 4.3.5.
On the iPad2 > App store > Purchased shows iPad Apps 1-12 of 702 (total 702 apps).
After performing itunes > File > Transfer Purchases from "my iPad", in itunes > LIBRARY > Apps only shows > Books 45, > Apps 190 and > Radio 25. Under itunes > DEVICES > My iPad > Apps (in the summary list) 327 > Books (below DEVICES) 16 items.
However, in itunes > STORE (below LIBRARY) > Purchased, you can download All purchased apps (or Apps not in your Library) to you PC. I choose All > Download, two hour downloading, Apps under LIBRARY became 410 compare was 190. Number 327 became 553.
I have no idea why the numbers don't add up.

Playlist stops after every few songs

I have a playlist that stops playing after playing through four items in the list. I can start it anywhere in the list and sure enough, after playing four selections it stops. Here are some facts about the problem:
- I have all the check-boxes checked.
- Playlist length: 600 entries
- Type: mp3 encoded snippets of Chinese language phrases.
- File size: ranges from 12KB-18KB per mp3 (<= 1 second)
- When it stops the progress bar is about at about 2/3, with the left side showing either 0:00 or 0:01 and the right side showing either -0:00 or -0:01 and the pause button is still showing (as though the selection was still playing)
- It will start playing again if I hit the pause button twice (once to toggle it to pause and then to go back to play)
- All the files play fine individually
- Reducing the playlist size doesn't help
- Moving the files to a new play list doesn't help
- Deleting and re-adding the files doesn't help
The playlist plays all the way through on my iPod without stopping but maybe every 100 entries or so it will play the next 4-8 without any sound and then continue as normal.
I have over 8000 other mp3 language snippets just like these in other playlists but the files are bigger(from 20KB-60KB)and they play through the whole list just fine. If I put files from the offending list into one of the other lists the other list will often stop playing just after that song. I'm curious whether iTunes has a problem handling really small files because this problem was happening in all my playlists of this type until I sorted them into lists of different file sizes. Now only the list with the smallest files (<20KB) has the problem.
Can anyone help?

They don't have a clue. I've called a few Apple stores because I have the same problem. Of course no one has heard of this type of problem but is seems fairly common.

Why does my iTunes stop working every time I plug my iPad in, but works for other apple devices

I have the lastest version of iTunes and the lastest version of the iOS sytem on my iPad 2. Every time I plug my iPad in and it comes up on iTunes, my iTunes stops responding and I have a never ending rainbow wheel. This is really frustrating and only happens when I plug my iPad in. It hasn't done that when I've plugged my iPhone, my brother's iPad, my iPod touch or my friend's iPod touch. Please help me! I just want to add a movie to my iPad.

It's happening to me too. The last time I synced was on Dec. 29th 2011 (right after I moved to Puerto Rico), so I figure my moving has nothing to do with it if it synced perfectly a week ago. But now when I try to sync it, after uninstalling itunes, restarting my computer, etc., it keeps freezing on me. I'm just hoping that syncing to iCloud is actually useful...

Stopping after each song has finished

Is it possible to set up the iPod shuffle so that when a song has finished playing it stops/pauses. Instead of continuing to the next song?

Haven't tried it on a shuffle, but here is an idea.
In iTunes, set up a playlist of the stuff you want on the shuffle. Now UNCHECK all the boxes in front of those songs. Also select all then do a get info and check the box to "skip when shuffling". I am not sure if that setting will effect how the songs play on the shuffle or not, but worth a try. If the shuffle does use that setting, then when you play a track, it should stop after that track since all the songs on the shuffle are unchecked and will be skipped.

My iPod touch crashes to the home screen after every song.

I recently updated my iTunes and the first time I connected my iPod to iTunes it worked fine.
I connected my iPod for a second time last night and now it says it doesn't recognize the usb device and that another iPod with iOS was connected to this computer or something like that. Now it asks me if I want to restore it.
I didn't restore it, but since I've then, my iPod crashes to the home screen after each and every song.
It plays one song, starts another, and crashes.
Please Help!!

Apple TV stops after one song

Hi All,
I recently bought my Apple TV (3rd gen) and have the most recent update (5.2). I also have the most up to date iTunes (11.0.1). The thing is that when I want to enter the library on my laptop (windows 7) Apple TV freezes after one song. It loads the next song but then stops. I still can go back in the menu, but the connection with the library is lost.
I also have a desktop computer (windows 7) running with a different iTunes library, and when i stream music from that library everything works fine. So my guess is that there is something wrong in the laptop (ACER Travelmate). I tried loads of things but they all do not seem to work:
- switched off windows firewall
- switched off IP/V6
- reinstalled the bonjour software
- reinstalled the itunes software
- I use a TP-link router with up to date firmware
Any ideas what might cause this problem? Is there maybe any other software that could be blocking my connection?
Tnx!

I have the same problem. I think it is disgusting that nobody at Apple has responded to your post. I see no evidence that Apple cares about this bug, which renders Airplay (on Apple TV) useless.
