Music starts playing in the middle of a song

u have tried everything that i can think of. taking all of the music off and putting it back on, the little check mark box in options right on itunes, everything...
please help me this is really upsetting me it is really annoying to have your songs always start in the middle or wherever you left it last...

well, if you have the remember playback position checkbox checked, it will resume the song from the last point you were playing it at. try turning that option off and see what happens.
also, in the same area as the option above, what are the start and end times for the songs? if start time is not 0:00, it will not start from the beginning...

Music stops playing in the middle of my song

All types of music I play (YouTube, purchased etc. ) just stops playing in the middle of the song and still has the pause button as if the music was still playing. This isn't the first problem I've had with the iPhone recently. My camera had condensation in it at what point and no water had gotten on the phone. Also, my lol button recently stopped working and it isn't stuck or anything. I don't understand why there has been so many issues with the phone. I take very good care of it and I have a lifeproof on it.

- First place the iPod in a sealed container/bag of rice for a couple of days. Change the rice daily. Do not turn on or charge before it is dry.
- The try the standard fixes, reset and restore, including restoring to factory defaults/new iPod.
- Try both headphones and speaker.
- If no usccessful then the water caused permenent damage to the iPod and service is required.

My Ipod starts playing in the middle of the night???

Can anyone help? For the last couple of nights, my Ipod has started playing during the middle of the night. I turn it off and put it on hold before I go to sleep but it is still happening?????

You most likely have the alarm set.
Check calender events also.

IPod classic stops playing in the middle of a song

I've had the same iPod classic for seven years. It still works very well, except that lately it stops playing in the middle of a song. I have to hit "play" for it to start playing again. Sometimes it will go for only ten seconds between stops, other times it will play just fine for several minutes before stopping. The song that I'm playing doesn't affect the stops. This only happens when I'm running, so I'm wondering if maybe the vibrations from running are what's causing it.
Does anybody have any suggestions for what I could do to fix this? I've tried restoring the iPod, and that didn't affect anything. I always keep the battery fully charged.

See if this helps ... https://discussions.apple.com/message/21623941#21623941

AirTunes pauses then plays (in the middle of a song)

I just got a brand new Airport Express to set up a wireless network at home. All the wireless is working seamlessly. But when I try to play a song from iTunes to the router to play on my home stereo, the song plays but every now and then it pauses, then after about 5 seconds it automatically starts playing from the same place again. I have an Intel iMac with the latest iTunes. I have noticed that the song also pauses in iTunes. This doesn't happen while playing through the computer and not the stereo. I've tried restarting my computer, the Airport Express, and reconfiguring the Airport Express. My connection to the base station is very good, the menu bar status icon always shows either 3/4 or 4/4 connection strength. What is the problem?
Thanks in advance,

I've been pretty lucky with my AE. Been using it non-stop and have had it for over a year and now. I used to experience the same problems initially. So I know how disappointing/frustrating this can be. It took me weeks of testing several settings until I found 2 particular settings that worked flawlessly. One setting where the AE is linked with a linksys g-range expander and another setting without the range expander. The AE has been pretty durable too bec the range expander has been replaced TWICE now.
Mine's connected to a Linksys router (in my living room 20+ ft away) and plays apple lossless/AIFF/AAC/MP3 music to my soundsystem for hours on end until i shutdown my itunes. i am also able to surf/download while playing airtunes.The music is no longer saved in my library but originates from my ipod connected via USB. Even when other people are surfing and sharing the internet connection there are no skips/hiccups.
I don't know if my settings will work but i'd try it anyway. these are my settings on a LINKSYS ROUTER w/o the G-RANGE EXPLANDER (BTW my WEP SECURITY is disabled).
Try these settings :
Run the airport admin utility application,locate the AE you wish to configure,click the NAME of the AE and then CONFIGURE.
AIRPORT TAB
wireless mode : create a wireless network
channel : 11
wireless security : not enabled
mode : 802.11g only
multicast rate : 11 (in wireless options)
tick -> ENABLE INTERFERENCE ROBUSTNESS
tansmitter power : 100%
INTERNET TAB
connect using : airport
mac address : [AE will enter these]
configure : manually
IP address : 192.168.1.103 -> [the last 3 digits can be anywhere from 100-150 I THINK.]
subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
router address : 192.168.1.1 -> [this is default IP for linksys]
DNS servers : go to router settings and click STATUS.there you will see "DNS1" and "DNS2". I used those IP numbers.
WDS TAB
tick -> enable this base station as a WDS and select "remote base station"
tick -> allow wireless clients on this base station
main airport ID : click SELECT and search for your wireless network
MUSIC TAB
tick -> enable airtunes on this base station
All other settings on the other TABS (NETWORK,PORT MAPPING, ACCESS CONTROL) were pretty much set to its default mode.
Good luck guys and let me know how it goes. Best to email me.
Cheers,
BT

Plug it into your computer or charger and let it charge for awhile.
Maybe your battery ran out of charge..

Start playing from the middle of a playlist?

Hi all,
I was wondering how to start playing from an arbitray song in a playlist on iTunes. When you go to a playlist, you see a play button next to the title of the playlist on the upper left corner of the playlist pane. If you press it, iTunes starts from the first song of the playlist. What do you do when you want to start from a song in the middle and continue to play songs in the order of the playlist?
I selected the song from which I want to start and pressed the play button on the upper-left corner, but iTunes started to play from the top of the list. When I double-clicked on the song, iTunes started to play the song but it stopped at the end of the album, not at the end of the playlist.
iTunes 11.1.3 (8).
Regards,
Ryo

Oh hi... seemed like I've got the problem fixed. :") For this particular case, just get the server side to stream the video to the clients (possibly one instance is created for each IP address, if resources allow). The server can quickly seek to any particular position within the media clip, and start streaming from there. The clients' players just need to listen to the stream from the appropriate instance on the server.
JMF can do the streaming just fine. I've switched to VLC before I knew that, so now I'm having problem making the JMF on the client work with the VLC streaming. This is weird, considering the streaming protocol to be identical. But I should get that fixed soon.
Thanks anyway! Hope this helps someone.

Hello all... i was having a horrible issue with my iPhone seemingly shuffling at random. So frustrating until I turned off the "shake to shuffle" option... I think most new iPods and iPhones have this feature in settings... good luck.

IPod stops playing in the middle of a song

This has just started to happen, I'll be listening to a song and it'll just stop playing. I'll unlock the "hold" switch and it'll continue playing.
Should I go to an Apple store and seek help or is this a known issue with an easy fix?

IPod stops playing in the middle of any song

I recently dropped my iPod (black and white screen with click wheel, 20 GB) and the front seperated from the back. It easily snapped back in place, but now when the earphone jack moves while plugged up, it pauses. I know that it is supposed to pause when earphones are unplugged while playing, but not while it is still fully plugged in. I am not under warranty from Apple anymore. Anyone with any suggestions or options please respond.

Even if you were under Apple's warranty, they probably wouldn't fix it for you because it was dropped. Anyway... sounds like the iPod is pausing because the headphones are coming out (like you said). Now, I'm not too sure about the anatomy of the 3rd generation iPods. If you mean that there is a problem with the headphone jack staying in place in the iPod... you might want to try putting your iPod into a skin case, to keep the jack still in the iPod. This might prevent (or at least lessen) the problem.

At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving abnormaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc.

At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving anomaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc. I have noticed that several nights. What I do is in Settings is to change into Plane Mode, thinking that, may be if I do that, somebody that has taking control of it will not be able to download data. Yesterday night, I was awakened by an alarm, whose setting I did not changed. When I looked over, the alarm screen changed to Settings and the Plane Mode changed alone in front of my eyes, from on to off.
I have not observed such a situation during the day. Only when I plug the cable.
I suspected that may be there is no Trojan installed. May be the cable, which is a spare cable, has been modified by a hacker, and it has electronics installed in the connector. But tested with the original cable, and the behavior was the same, as described above.

Thanks Meg for your reply.
It could be that both cable are bad. But, anyway, you would not expect any of these manifestations, even with a bad cable. I had bad cable for my 4s, and never saw such a thing!
I contacted by chat the support of Apple. They told me that this behavior could be a software problem and recommended me to do a full recover of my iphone. That meant, putting in at the factory conditions and recup all the data from the backup. I did that, and the behavior did not change. The backup was made with the data of my PC, not icloud. Tomorrow will try with icloud and check if that will work.

When I play my Ipod shuffle 3rd gen there's a moment when I start hearing interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down.

My Ipod shuffle 3rd gen starts playing songs with some kind of interference until it stops playing, when I turn it off and on again it starts playing from the first song all over again, and once it sounded like the music was slowing down. First I thought it was the earphones, but I exchanged them for newer ones and so far its the same

You may want to do a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If it's a software or data corruption glitch, the Restore should fix it. After the Restore, reload or resync your songs, and try it again. As a test, you may want to initially select a small number of songs to put back on the shuffle.

HT4528 I recently got the iPhone 5s and I transferred all of my music, pictures, etc. over from my iPhone 5. My music was playing fine the day I got it (2 days ago) and now my music skips, stops in the middle of the songs, or just stops playing and exits.

What can I do?

Not sure if this will help but a reset is the first thing to try. To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
