My Party shuffle doesnt work; it only shows my library

whenever i open iTunes i goto the party shuffle and see that it doesnt shuffle any of my songs and just lists them in ABC order. does anyone know how to make it go back to the way it was and have it shuffle&play the songs?

Same problem here. In my case I upgraded Itunes and had to rename the prior version library to get my library back (Is that a bug that has become a feature?)
I copied the entire party shuffle into a new playlist and that does work. The tracks stay in numbered order but with shuffle on, it shuffles according to the settings you have in Edit-preferences-playback and "smart shuffle"

  • Party Shuffle not working...help?

    I can't get my Party Shuffle to work. I'm running version 7.0.1 and when I select Party Shuffle there's nothing on the playlist. Then I select a source (doesn't seem to matter what I select here...Music, or Purchased or a Playlist) and shuffle and I get an error message that says "The playlist "xxx" does not contain any songs playable by Party Shuffle. Are you sure you want to choose this playlist?" This is the first time I've actually tried this, although I've been importing music to my itunes for some time. Thanks!

    Usually, you will only get that message when choosing an empty playlist or one containing streams only.
    Any other playlist should work.
    I've tried to get the same problem as you're having, using various settings in iTunes 7.0.2, but I did not succeed.
    iTunes 7.0.2 has a number of bugs fixes. Can you (and are you willing to) upgrade to iTunes 7.0.2 and tell us if the problem is solved or still persists?

    you could try forcing it into recovery mode by turning it off, hold the home button and plug it into iTunes at the same time, keep holding the home button until iTunes says its detected a device that needs to be updated or restored. Then restore.

  • While updating software of Ipad, it stop working and only shows the Apple on screen. How can I recover?

    While I was updating the software of my IPad, it stopped working and only shows the apple logo. How can I recover my IPad?

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • The search only shows my library - no store. have version 12.0.1.26

    The search only shows my library - no store. have version 12.0.1.26. Once I upgraded the search itunes store disappeared. Any ideas?

    What are you viewing when using the search box ? If you are in the store then it should search the store - is that not happening ?

  • Party Shuffle not working

    Does anyone have any insight on why my party shuffle playlist doesn't work?

    narya hello,
    there are two bugs that have been around for a long time and I quite often post a reminder... like so
    From the iTunes Hot Tips
    If party shuffle or visualizer will not refresh... select all songs in PS/list and delete, the visualizer needs default settings, reset... start visualizer full screen and type 'D'.... type '?' for more options.
    Once done they seem to disappear... who knows why ???

  • Party Shuffle stopped working / broken

    Hi -
    Went to use Party Shuffle this morning and it doesn't register any of the options input any more - none of the playlist options, or the number of tracks to show or even the refresh button.
    Very odd. Anyone had this too?
    Thanks -

    +"I can play a single song but then its stops"+
    That usually means your songs have gone unchecked. See the little boxes to the left of the song names? Hold the CTRL key and click any one of the empty boxes.

  • Iphone seems to be working but only shows apple logo, itunes sees the phone normally, when i restored it appeared successful and itunes tried activating my phone but the screen only shows apple logo nothing else???

    my iphone is detected in itunes as normal, but screen on the phone only shows apple logo??? restored and everything but no difference its weird, it restores successfully and stuff but once done the screen only shows apple logo.. note:while restoring everything goes through as normal on the phone it shows the bar loading etc.. but once complete just stays on apple logo.

    It can take a few minutes to reinitialize, but if it stays on the Apple logo for as much as 10 minutes there is something seriously wrong. Try restoring again, and set up as a new phone rather than installing your backup. If this fixes it you have a corrupt backup. If this doesn't fix it the phone is broken. Or possibly jailbroken.

  • My Party-Jukebox doesnt work correctly

    Hello to everybody
    I run iTunes 7.3.2 and all was ok, but suddently (somebody tried to copy a couple of songs from a CD-Rom to my iTunes but who knows how... but he may not be guilty of this malfunction) the mode "Party-Jukebox" is as it were blocked. It does not dispay any of the songs from the source or the playlists that I select. Strange is: it appears a unchangable list of 362 songs (but max 100 should be possible to display) and these songs are sorted by interpret, instead to be a random selected mix. And I can't do or change anything in the mode Party-Jukebox. Also the buttons like "actualize" does not change anything.
    I tried one thing: To upgrade the iTunes Software from 7.3.1 to 7.3.2. The installation was successfuly but the same problem remained.
    What could cause this problem? What can I do to fix it or where shoult I look for e.g a bad file or so?
    Thank you very much

    Try selecting all of the songs displayed in the Party Shuffle list and hitting delete. This should force the list to repopulate and often solves the problem.

  • Can't attach photos -- "Preview" only shows iPhoto library Icon

    I can't attach (or upload) photos anymore. When I try to attach a photo using Mail (not directly from iPhoto), I only get the iPhoto Library icon and Preview doesn't show any of my various pictures. If I click on the Library icon, Mail tries to attach my entire photo library and then my iMac locks up. I have the same problem if I try to upload pictures to say an ebay auction. I'm using the new iLife '08.
    Basically, I cannot get a listing of all my individual pictures -- only the iPhoto Library icon. Any advise will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic. You can also drag and drop directly from the iPhoto Window to the Mail window. This works with many other apps.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy. This is the best solution for uploading pics to ebay or where ever. After the upload is finished you can trash the file on the desktop, it's only a copy.
    3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

  • Homesharing only shows partial library since updating iTunes and iOS

    Made mistake of updating iphone, ipad, and PC to latest versions of iTunes and iOS> Ever since then homesharing will only show partial iTunes library on ipad or iphone. Don't know if problem is with iTunes or iOS, or both.
    I have tried remove and reinstall itunes on pc. I've tried turning homesharing on/off on all devices - sometimes it works once or twice and then next time I try to use homesharing it doesn't work again.

    This is a recurring problem. The only solution I am aware of is to restore your device (both an iPhone5 and iPad2 in my case) to factory settings and then restore your data from your most recent backup. It will then share the entire library from your in your iTunes on your computer. However, after a few uses of the shared library on your device, the same problem will re-occur; at some point only a portion of the library will be shared, and you will have to re-do the restore routine.
    Since this problem occurs on both my iPhone 5 and iPad2, I have concluded (for now, anyway), that this is a problem with iTunes, not with my devices.
    I hope this admittedly cumbersome solution is helpful
