My ipod stops after afew songs during shuffles

Since updating to the 1.2 firmware, my 60GB ipod will stop after 20-30 songs, show the Apple logo and then return to the menu. Is this a problem others are experiencing? Can it be rectified because it's hugely annoying and frustrating.

  • Ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist?

    I have a problem: Suddenly, my ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist.  This happens with every playlist and every track, all of which worked fine until this week.  All tracks' settings are "yes" on 1) part of a compilation; 2) remember playback position and; 3) skip when shuffling.  I have not updated any software or added any new content to my ipod.  I imagine that some setting has been switched on or off, but I am unable to identify which one.  Please help as these are my audio books!  Thanks!

    See below for a link on how to copy a CD into iTunes if you want an Audibook.
    I have tried checking the gap less album box (what is that for by the way) but it makes no difference.
    If you've heard of Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd then it's used there when you want no break between tracks. Or any DJ mixed continuos play CD. Or some classical music. Take your pick
    Third question, can I make a book copied into iTunes an Audiobook? How?

  • How can I restore the count of songs during shuffle play

    The old iPod app showed a countdown of songs during shuffle play: '1 of 30'.  This feature seems to have disappeared in ios5.  Is there any way to restore it?  It was an extremely useful feature and I really miss it.

    Never mind, finally figured it out. All the advice says to click on the left-most column, but it's actually the second column from the left (the first one, in mky version of iTunes, is the album list.)

  • How do i fix my ipod touch from skipping songs ? shuffle is shut off

    my ipod touch is skipping songs and shuffle is off . how do i fix this ?

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync and resync all music
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • 160gig  iPod Stopping After 2 or 3 Songs

    My iPod would just stop after 2 or 3 songs when I'm listening to it on "shuffle songs," an album or a playlist. It happens when I listen to CDs that I ripped, albums that I bought from the iTunes store and DRM-free albums that I bought online.
    At first, I thought it was a problem with ripped CDs and some kind of copy protection, but then I started noticing this for EVERYTHING, even when I put podcasts into "On the go" playlists.
    Should I update my iPod/iTunes?
    Help? Please?
    Also, is the 160gig supposed to be laggy? Or is it the album artwork slowing things down?

    I too have a problem with my Classic 160GB version where a song will play and the unit will just shut off. Usually this happens while I'm charging it and playing it through a dock but not totally all the time that way. I start it back up again and often that corrects it but sometimes it takes several restarts. This is a problem that I don't see Apple addressing. I can't update my unit also due to an error code 1430 so I've contacted Apple to create a service issue

  • Ipod frequently stops after a song, displays apple icon

    I've got a new 80GB ipod with a bad habit. It frequently will reach the end of a song during a playlist play, and will just stop. It displays the black and white apple icon. If I hit the center button a few times, it will jump to the main menu and I can continue from there, though the playlist will start from the beginning again.
    Very annoying! And something my old ipod never did. Anyone else experience this?? Thanks!

    Have you tried restoring your iPod? Sounds like an error in the software.

  • IPod stops after 10th or 12th song-after updating ITNS

    5th Gen iPod running Firmware 1.2 and iTunes 7.0.1.7. After updating through Software Update from previous iTunes, I updated the Pod as recommended and now it stops after every 10th or 12th song. I have tried every step mentioned on http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/ but with no luck. Ran perfectly fine on previous version.
    Any ideas?

    This happens to me too. Only thing I can think of is I recently downloaded latest software. Help!

  • 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.

  • Playlists stop after one song

    I am having a problem where my playlists stop playing after one song in Itunes. This does not happen in my IPOD lists just Itunes.
    I ran the setup and repaired - same problem
    Reinstalled - same problem.
    Deleted playlists and created new ones - same problem.
    Highlighting several songs and playing - prob remains.
    Any help would be appreciated. If it is a settings issue, not sure why it doesn't affect the IPOD songs played through Itunes. Only the Itunes playlists stop playing.
    Appreciate any help.

    i was hoping it was something simple. (after a hard day in Installations & Upgrades, it's nice when something goes fairly smoothly.) glad to help!
    love, b

  • 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.

  • Creative Muvo stops after each song

    My creative muvo has begun to stop play after each song. You have to scroll to the next song manually. Has anyone had this problem? (The battery is fully charged)

    If the Play Mode is set to normal then that shouldn't happen. Could be a problem with the files on the unit, you could try formatting it and then transfer some new tracks over (rip them from CD for example). It might help aswell to update the firmware.
    You didn't mention which MuVo it is exactly, but if there is a firmware update available for it, it'll be in the Downloads section (Support > Downloads).

  • 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.
