My music plays on a loop one song at a time

Since the last phone upgrade, I've noticed that songs play on a loop one at a time,therefore, you have to keep pressing the next button to hear another song. Please can someone tell me how to stop this so that I can play all songs and not one at a time
Many thanks

Hi thank you for that, but unfortunately, the screen is not as it used to be, therefore not showing the duration of songs nor the unshuffle button as previously.
The screen only shows the song you are playing, and at the bottom there is the previous stop/play and next and volume control nothing else!
Help much appreciated.

  • ITunes tells me "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want it?

    I just spent several hours dealing with this when switching to a new PC. It was extremely frustrating as I knew my files were on my external HD but no matter how many times I copied my old iTunes folder over the files were still missing...because dummy me had forgotten to "unhide folders" on my new PC and my old files were actually stored in a hidden folder created long long ago.
    This is how I did it on Windows 7 with iTunes 10
    1. Look in iTunes Advanced Preferences to see where iTunes is saving files. (Edit, Preferences, Advanced)
         Example: C:/Users/Woildbill/My Music/iTunes/Music
    2. Ensure you are able to see hidden files - Control Panel, Folder Option, View, Show Hidden Files
    3. Use Your Computer's Search Function to Locate the Missing File (Start, Search, type name of song - I started my search in "My Music" folder but be sure to expand to entire Computer if not found right away)
    4. In Search Results, right-click found folder and select properties. This will tell you where the file is actually stored.
    5. Use Windows Explorer (right-click start) to navigate to the location of the file. It is likley your other missing files are in the same location.
    6. In Windows Explorer, copy the newly located files to the iTumes location from Step 1 and everything should work again.
    Hope this helps!

  • Some albums won't play entire album--just one song at a time.

    I just downloaded the new version of iTunes. Now, on some albums, I can only play one song at a time. Any idea why some albums play through without a problem and others don't?

    go to albums
    select all albums
    right click one (as this will be the same as right clicking all of them)
    go to the bottom of the pop up munu
    click "Check Selection"

  • Is it a fact that with iOS 7 I can't delete albums from music, but have to do one song at a time?

    So many updates...  Used to be able to delete an album by swiping to the right.  Now I only seem to be able to delete one song at a time by swiping left.  What's up?  I really can't detele whole albums anymore?

    Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are removed from the iPhone the same way. To remove all photos transferred from your computer, deselect Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
    If you want to remove an album only and you manually manage photo storage on your computer, move the folder of photos outside of the folder on your computer that is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.
    To remove select photos, move the photos outside of the folder of photos on your computer that is selected to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.
    An album you created on your iPhone can be deleted direct from your iPhone.

  • Play list on Blackberry 9300 will only play one song at a time since update to Desktop version 6

    Since upgrading to version 6, my backberry 9300 won't play any more than one song at a time (unless you manually forward it to the next song), even when using a playlist.
    I have tried every combination of shuffle/repeat and still no luck.  Vodafone technical people cannot help either!
    Please advise how I can get my  blackberry curve 9300 to play the whole list OR an entire album without me having to advance every single song?

    Hi
    The obvious conclusion to reach is that this is a result of the upgrade to OS 6 and that to get back the facility you've lost would be achieved by going back to the old OS.
    I do not have access to OS 6 so I cannot be specific, but it may be worth trying a different media app before any other action.

  • How do I play one song at a time in Music on iPad

    First I DO NOT HAVE THE LITTLE SHUFFLE SYMBOL AND THE SHUFFLE IS NOT SELECTED in Songs on MY IPAD.  I have downloaded music from iTunes to my iPad in the Apple Music icon but all the songs seem to bunch together. I want to play one song at a time and NOT HAVE THE REST START PLAYING.

    Turn on *shuffle songs* and then start the Podcast episode you want. The display should say "1 of 1" because all Podcasts are set to *Skip on shuffle* so the one you're playing is the only option for the iPod.

    After updating ITunes, it, ITunes started loosing my music files and stopped playing more than one song at a time also there would be duplicate songs in the same folders.What now?

    Sound like something messed up somehow. Maybe you can consider reinstalling the drivers again? @28.86.2.0

  • My Itunes will load on Apple TV and play, but only plays one song at a time.  It will not shuffle or continuously play an album.  All of the songs display, but will only play one at a time...home sharing is on.  Any suggestions?

    My Itunes info will load onto Apple TV, but will only play one song at a time of my music.  Home sharing is on, airplay is on, router info has been reset.  What am I missing?  It has never done this before....

  • My iPod only plays one song at a time

    I don't store any music on my iPod - only music videos. They all play fine, and they're stored as properly tagged music video files under Menu->Videos->Music Videos. After I first synced them from my PC, I noticed that they also all appear under Menu->Music as songs. I can play them all just fine, either by selecting one through Menu->Videos (in which case it plays as a video) or by selecting one though Menu->Music, in which case it plays as a regular song with a little picture displayed instead of the video.
    So far, so good.
    The only problem is, I can only play one song at a time. I navigate through the menu, select either a song or a video, and the iPod will play that just fine, get to the end, and then bring up the menu again.
    How can I get it to play the one I select, and then just play other random songs? It makes no difference whether or not 'shuffle' is selected, it still only plays one then stops. Also, putting the songs in a playlist doesn't seem to make any difference.
    Any advice gratefully received.

    Are you sure you don't have Shuffle on? There are a couple of ways to Shuffle on a 5th Gen. iPod. You can't simply choose Shuffle Songs from the Main Menu and shuffle the entire library...or you can go to Settings > Shuffle and choose Songs or Albums and apply that to any playlist you select. The behavior you describe is what happens when Shuffle is turned on and items are set to Skip When Shuffling (an option found on the tracks under Get Info). If Shuffle is on, you should see the little green crossed arrows in the upper right of the iPod window.

  • Remote App Only Plays One Song At A Time

    When using the Remote App on my iPhone or iPad to play music from my iTunes collection over Apple TV, only one song at a time will play.  I can select the album I want to hear through the menu, select a track to play, but one that song ends the music stops... it won't continue to the next song on the album.  Any advice?

    I  have the same problem using the Remote app to play music I have on my Mac mini. One song plays, then it stops. BTW - this did not happen until I upgraded the mini to Mavericks.

  • AppleTV plays one song at a time

    Apple TV 2 works for me as advertised. I've used it to play music and films off my iPad and desktop. However, when I use the AppleTv remote or the Remote app on the iPad to play albums off my desktop iTunes library, it will play only one song at a time. (it will play entire albums only when streamed from the iPad). Is there a solution?

    It turns out that although I thought I had checked all the songs in my iTunes library, I had not. Only a few were checked. When I did check all songs, my problem was solved. I can now play entire albums and playlists rather than one song at a time. Thank you for the solution to this problem. OS

  • I have a file where I store my download music. When I click on "add music" to my ipod my music file opens, but rather than have to drag one song at a time to my ipod, how do I copy the entire file at once to my ipod. - steve

    Hi - I have a file where I store my downloaded music. When I plug in my ipod and click on "add music" my file appears. Rather than drag one song at a time, how can I download the entire list at once? - steve

    I am not doing it in ITunes, but i did down load the song from ITunes.  I loaded the song on to my Nano, but in my menu selections it doesn't show the song or the artist in any search format.  However, when i plug in my nano to my PC I see the Nano library on my PC drive listings and that song and artist are there.  I can click on the song and it will play in Windows media on my work PC.  I did notice that the format for most all the songs in my library on my Nano are MPEG - 4 audio Files. 
    Thanks for your help, Mel

  • How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than by one song at a time? I am still on iOS 7.

    How can I delete music from my iPad Air other than one song at a time? I would like to delete a few albums.  I am still on iOS 7.

    You can either sync the iPhone and iPad to a computer that has your music on it and make sure the U2 album is not on the computer. Or you can delete all of the music from both devices (settings > general > usage > manage storage > music. Then redownload your music from your purchase history on the iTunes store
    Also the U2 album is attached to your apple id. To remove it, you will need to go here ---> https://itunes.com/soi-remove

  • Tip: How to play a playlist one song at a time from iTunes on a computer using the checkbox property

    I would like to share a tip about how to play a playlist one song at a time from iTunes on a computer. The tip I am sharing is simple, but I was not able to find it in the iTunes Help. After searching on the internet I found the idea for this solution in a discussion in which this was presented as a frustrating problem rather than a desired behavior. This tip relies on the checkbox for each song in iTunes. For a song in a playlist to play automatically, the checkbox must be checked. To keep a song from playing in a playlist, simply uncheck it. Therefore, to keep all songs from playing automatically in a playlist, simply uncheck them all. Now you have a list of desired songs in a desired order but none of them will play automatically. You can play each one when you want to play it without having to search for the next song and without having to be at the computer to stop the playing after each song.
    Step by step:
    1. Create the playlist.
    2. Uncheck all of the check boxes in the playlist (In iTunes for Windows, ctrl click one of the check marks to uncheck all of the checkboxes at once) 
    3. Now double click (or select and press spacebar) a song to play it. It will stop when finished because there is no other song checked to be played next.
    4. If you want to change back to normal sequential play, ctrl click one of the check marks again to change all of the checkboxes back to the checked status.
    Based on some discussions I found while looking for a solution (including at least one in which the questioner got bashed about why anybody would ever want to do such a thing and in which the proposed solutions were things like creating one song playlists or simply press stop after each song), some may not understand why this would ever be desired.  Here's why I wanted to do it:
    I was responsible for playing a series of songs at a dance. I needed to stop after each song to have a transition time to allow me to introduce the next song and to give new dancers time to get onto the floor and other dancers an opportunity to leave the floor. Furthermore, I was also dancing and didn't want to have to spend time searching for the next song (which is why I wanted to create a playlist in advance with just the songs I wanted to play in the order I wanted to play them) and I wanted each song to stop after playing since I was not at the computer to press stop.
    I hope this will help others who have a similar need.

    Thank you! I put some self help hypnosis tracks to listen to on my iPod. I did not want to go to the next track automatically, I wanted to listen to them individually, one at a time. (If I fell asleep, I did not want to 'wake up' in the middle of a different track.) Your information helps me understand that I need to re-load this playlist onto my iPod from my  Mac computer, only first, I need to UNCHECK the boxes in front of each track so the iPod will STOP each time after playing the selected track. It is too bad that so many functions are not availabvle within the iPod, but that is probably why they can make it so compact.
