Jumping to the track being played

I'm doing some housekeeping on my iTunes in one playlist A At the same time I am listening to music in playlist B. Every time a new track comes up, iTunes jumps to that track in playlist B and I then have to go back to playlist A and find my original place it in. It's driving me mad and I'm sure it didn't behave like this in the past. Is there a way I can stop it happening?

Well, maybe I don't get the iTunes DJ function - But I want to avoid having to deal with an extra window where I would have to add tracks to a playlist - because I'm exploring unknown music as well as managing list info (names, art, etc...) and wouldn't know what to add before I even stumble across tracks to peruse as I scroll through the main list - and I don't want iTunes to go randomly selecting things either. I simply want to be able to work through the main list and select tracks to play at my leisure while I scroll and then not be jumped back after I have scrolled away when I might well want to let the next song play -or to pick another song from where I happen to be at after the last song ends (without having to pick a new song before the last one ends)... I never used the DJ function, so I'll look into that more, but it doesn't look like that really solves this issue either.
Thanks anyway though.

ITune jumps to the song being played at the start of each song - make it st

When I'm listening and working iTunes in another section of iTunes, the display jumps to the song being played at the start of each song. I then have to find where I was working at. How do I make it stop jumping to the song being played?

Thank you but it did not work. I changed it to selected item but I still bounce back to the song being played at the beginning of each song. I find this very annoying! Thanks but it did not work.. I did not mention but I'm using iTunes 7.

Tracks being played are automatically being added to library!!!

Is there any way to stop a track being played from being added to the library?

There's no way I know of to stop iTunes adding the song but if you right click on the file and choose Open With and then QuickTime you can listen to it without using iTunes.

Monitoring the track being recorded

Hello all!
Audition 3 - Is there a setting that will allow me to hear the track being recorded while I am recording it? I am using headphones and using a line in jack to input the guitar signal but when I hit play or record the program mutes the recording track.
I understand why its doing that, to prevent feedback. But I am using headphones and all sound is contained in the system. So I would like to hear the guitar through the head phones what I am recording.
Thanks for your help.
Jeff

Go to the Options menu and choose Monitoring/Audition Mix. You can then choose between Smart Input which switches to Input when you drop into record or Always Input. However I should mention that depending on the speed of your PC and the type of soundcard and driver that you are using you may suffer from latency that will cause a delay between you sounding the note and you hearing it in the headphones. If you are lucky this may not be enough to stop you recording. otherwise you really need an audio interface that uses direct monitoring to get round this problem.

I was reviewing my list of songs in my library "on my I-Pod". I noticed that a few of the songs on the list have an Exclamation Point in front of the track, and the track won't play. How do I get rid of the Exclamation Point so that the track will play.

Hello enrique a.
Instead of trying to re-invent the wheel on this one, take a look at an article such as this one to help you take care of these exclamations. Basically, it means iTunes is unable to locate the file on your computer anymore.

I am trying to import standard midi file that I created in Band in a Box into Logic Pro 9. I can not get all the track to play with internal instrument sounds... only the piano track. how can I get the others to play... drums, bass etc???? Help

Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.

ERROR MESSAGE - The media being played is of an unsupported format...ERROR MESSAGE - HELP

I recently download an app to watch movies on my phone from blackberrymovemachine.com. I successfully downloaded this app and when I go to play movies it starts the download and then I get the error message: The media being played is of an unsupported format. I have gotten this message too when trying to play some videos on you tube. Any suggestions or help would be great? Do I need to download another app to support this type of media?
Thanks

Applescript - Audio MIDI Setup to match the track currently playing in iTunes.

I havent played with Applescript but assume this is possible?... write a script to automatically change the sample rate in Audio MIDI Setup to match the track currently playing in iTunes.
Anyone any experience of doing this?
thanks

MIDI Setup to match the track currently playing in iTunes.
Audio MIDI Setup is not scriptable. It is possible to script non-scriptable applications using the UI, but how easy and how effective this is depends on the application.
The real problem is that AppleScript is not suited for the kind of task you have in mind. Basically, you want a daemon running in the background who either checks or receives notifications from iTunes and tells AMS to do something. This is something AppleScript does very poorly. IMHO you should look for something else.

HT1725 I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song. I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?

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.

Does any know what is the name of the folder where iTunes saves the iCloud cache like the songs being played, etc.?

Does any know what is the name of the folder where iTunes saves the iCloud cache like the songs being played, etc.?

Checked:
when you add a song to iTunes, that song is copied to the itunes library folder (on your external drive) with all your other songs, so they are all in the same place, on that drive. you can then delete the song you added to itunes from wherever you added it, because it has been copied to the itunes folder.
Unchecked:
the song is not copied to the itunes folder on the external drive. this means that once you add it to itunes, you must keep the song wherever you added it from, because itunes only remembers where it is located, and does not keep a copy in the itunes folder. moving this file will make the song unplayable in itunes.

My story is working in dvd studio pro but how do I get the track to play with and without the story?

Hi there,
I've targetted my first button to play all and I've targetted my second button to play all: story 1. The play all option is still playing the same as the play all:story 1 option.
Can someone please help me figure out what I'm missing here. It should be straightforward but something isn't working.
Many thanks
Oonagh

Not sure if I explained my problem well at the start.
I have a 1 track dvd and I want two play options. 1 is the play all option, the other is an interactive option where the track will stop at certain points in the dvd. I have created 2 stories for each task. However, I can't alter 1 story without it altering the other story. Therefore for the play all option, when I want to take out the property whereby it stops at certain points in the interactive play option, it takes it out of both stories. If I target the play all button to just the track without any story, it still is linked to the interactive story.
The way I've made the story markers interactive is by putting the playback option to infinite.
I thought I had solved the problem by deleting the interactive story markers in the play all story but now when it plays through, it's not seamless where I removed these chapters and seems to jump a bit at these points.
If anyone can shed some light it would be much appreciated

Problem burning cd-only half the tracks actually play

Please can anyone help-I'm trying to do some cd's for my friends wedding. The CD burn is successful, but only the first 6 tracks play, even though the stereo lists all the track numbers.
Many thanks, Dionne.

Hi Rick,
I haven't been on this site for ages and I was wondering why no one answered you! A few questions: what size is the list you are trying to burn? It usually says at the bottom of the screen. What brand and format is the blank CD? Are all the songs checked on the play list that you want to burn? What kind of computer equipment are you using to burn? Usually bought CD's have a very large file format and have to be converted to a different format to fit on your CD, especially with 18 songs. Lemmee know and I can help further.
