My Playhead thing won't start at the beginning.

In every project when i hit play it starts in the middle of the song? :{

If Cycle is activated, the playback starts at the cycle start point. You might have a Marquee selection, which might trigger this specific behavior, if you set up the play button that way. After a long clock on the play button you'll see this:
Deselect "Play marquee Selection" and let us know, if this cures your issue.
Best,

AudioInputStream won't start from the beginning

I'm not sure if this is normal or not, but here's a weird the situation. I have a number of audio files that I play together. Nothing complicated.
    public void playAudio() {
        try{
            File soundFile_1 = new File("SoundFile1.wav");
            File soundFile_2 = new File("SoundFile2.wav");
            File soundFile_3 = new File("SoundFile3.wav");
            audioInputStream_1 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_1);
            audioInputStream_2 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_2);
            audioInputStream_3 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_3);
            audioFormat_1 = audioInputStream_1.getFormat();
            audioFormat_2 = audioInputStream_2.getFormat();
            audioFormat_3 = audioInputStream_3.getFormat();
            DataLine.Info dataLineInfo_1 = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class,audioFormat_1);
            DataLine.Info dataLineInfo_2 = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class,audioFormat_2);
            DataLine.Info dataLineInfo_3 = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class,audioFormat_3);
            sourceDataLine_1 = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(dataLineInfo_1);
            sourceDataLine_2 = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(dataLineInfo_2);
            sourceDataLine_3 = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(dataLineInfo_3);
            new PlayThread().start();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            System.exit(0);
    class PlayThread extends Thread{
        byte tempBuffer_1[] = new byte[100000];
        byte tempBuffer_2[] = new byte[100000];
        byte tempBuffer_3[] = new byte[100000];

                sourceDataLine_2.open(audioFormat_2);
                sourceDataLine_3.open(audioFormat_3);
                sourceDataLine_1.start();
                sourceDataLine_2.start();

                      (stopPlayback == false)) {
                    if(nBytesRead > 0){
                        sourceDataLine_1.write(tempBuffer_1, 0, nBytesRead);
                        sourceDataLine_2.write(tempBuffer_2, 0, nBytesRead);
                        sourceDataLine_3.write(tempBuffer_3, 0, nBytesRead);
                sourceDataLine_1.drain();
                sourceDataLine_2.drain();
                sourceDataLine_3.drain();
                sourceDataLine_1.close();
                sourceDataLine_2.close();
                sourceDataLine_3.close();
                stopPlayback = false;

                e.printStackTrace();

    }I also have a method that combines the three audio files into one. I usually call this method after having played the files for a short time.
    public void saveAudio() {
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_1);
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_2);
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_3);
        saveMixAIS = new MixingFloatAudioInputStream(audioFormat_1, saveList);
        File saveFile = new File("SaveMix.wav");
        try {
            AudioSystem.write(saveMixAIS, AudioFileFormat.Type.WAVE, saveFile);
     } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
} Interesting enough, this code doesn't seem to combine the three audio files properly. What seems to happen is that the combined file starts at the location where I stopped playing. In order to get the files to start from the very beginning, I need to re-initialize the AudioInputStream.
    public void saveAudio() {
        try{
            File soundFile_1 = new File("SoundFile1.wav");
            File soundFile_2 = new File("SoundFile2.wav");
            File soundFile_3 = new File("SoundFile3.wav");
            audioInputStream_1 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_1);
            audioInputStream_2 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_2);
            audioInputStream_3 = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile_3);
        } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                System.exit(0);
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_1);
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_2);
        saveList.add(audioInputStream_3);
        saveMixAIS = new MixingFloatAudioInputStream(audioFormat_1, saveList);
        File saveFile = new File("SaveMix.wav");
        try {
            AudioSystem.write(saveMixAIS, AudioFileFormat.Type.WAVE, saveFile);
     } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
} Is this normal?

That definitely makes sense.
I was under the impression that the AudioInputStream never loses the data it has read and that the AudioSystem.write method always starts from the beginning of this AudioInputStream. I need to stop treating the AudioInputStream like an array and instead treat it more like fresh water.Definately.
AudioInputStream doesn't actually have anything in it...it's actually just a wrapper. Whenever you call read on it, it just reads whatever it's wrapping around, and returns the result. This is why it can contain both live data being recorded or file data or a network stream or...
In this case, it is reading from a BinaryFile. Everytime you call read, it increments the file position... and it doesn't reset the file position when you call AudioSystem.write...

Songs won't start at the beginning!

Just got a brand new ipod, and am having a huge problem with songs starting in the middle of the song. Also if I play a few seconds of one song, then skip to the next, and then go back to the original song, it WILL NOT start at the beginning-keeps going to back to wherever it stopped playing! It still does this if I turn it off and back on. Nothing seems to work. Anyone know why?

Hello msjazzer,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Have you made sure your tracks' Start and Stop time have not been altered within iTunes? To do this locate the tracks you are having issues with. From there, highlight them, right -> click on them and choose "Get Info" from the shortcut pop up menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Options tab. First make sure the Start time is set to the beginning of the song and the Stop time is set to the end.
Also make sure the "remember playback position" option is not ticked as well from under this same tab. If you make any changes hit OK and sync the updated changes to your iPod.
Otherwise, perhaps you could take a look at this Apple support document.

Keynote kept crashing. Won't start from the beginning. Help!

The keynote kept crashing. I went to the website just now, but when I try to watch, I can't get back to the beginning, which I missed. The only options are "watch live" and "start from pause," and neither of those is what I need to do.

As we can't see what your doing, provide some details, what website is this, did you create the file, is it a Keynote or Quicklime or PDF file?

I would like to update to Firefox 5.0.1, but I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled.

I have wanted to update from 3.6.22, to 5.0.1, but can't do to the following reasons: I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled. They are: Microsoft. NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1, Iconix 3.90.1, HP Detect 1.0.5.1, Yahoo! Toolbar 2.3.5.201101200332202 (I don't care about Yahoo! Toolbar, because I don't use it!). As soon as these issues are fixed, I will be able to update, to the latest versions. These issues should be fixed & ready to work, before a new version is available. Thank you!

There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

Took apart Macbook pro 13 to remove broken headphone tip in the jack. Had to remove battery to get to the headphone jack. Now the laptop won't start. The power button is just not responding. Battery indicator showed charge of 3 dots initially but now only the last dot is blinking. The power cable used to light up green initially but now the green light is gone. I have tried SMC reset, which didn't work. What are my options?

Content of Scrolling text won't start at the top of the frame

Despite making the frame exactly the same size as the content the Scrolling text won't start at the top of the frame. It drops down the equivalent of a line of text. Any ideas?

Hi Ali
No to Baseline Grid
Yes to Text Wrap but its a small graphic (to indicate scrolling text) inset into text halfway down.
The first line of text has a 4 line drop cap with Align to Left Edge checked. The DC is also defined as a Chara Style and doesn't exend above the top of the text.

Logic X playhead will not start at the beginning of project.

Logic X playhead will not start at the beginning of project. When I push play, it starts from a point from which I was working earlier. When I press play from beginning, it will only play from that other point. I've tried saving the project with the playhead at the beginning, after dragging it there, then closing and re-opening the project but it still starts playback at that undesired point!...even when I push the stop button twice, (go to beginning) it does not go!...Why does this happen?

It is behaving as though there is a marquee at that point but I did not have one... I placed one at a different point and it played from there (normal) but when I turned it off, it went back to my 'problem' point! And, after mousing around with a few marquees and playhead 'drags', it was "fixed"... But I never knew what the problem stemmed from... And...It tends to happen on occasion, in different projects.... I'll continue to monitor these glitch events, and keep you posted!

I do not recommend reformatting your harddrive and reloading your software. This is a Windows thing. On an older mac it may be difficult to find all your software again.
Best to have greater than 2gig of free space. Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
Go after large files that you have created & know what they are. Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

Downloaded songs don't start at the beginning of the song, why?

the songs i bought from itunes don't start at the beginning of the song, it's just the preview clip.

Been having the same problems myself. And I don't know about you but sometimes it'll take a while to get it to actually play the first song.

The Kindle app is so you do not have to use a Kindle. Yes, he can have a Kindle account and not own an actual Kindle hardware device.

How do I restart iOS download after internet crashes without having to start from the beginning.

My internet crashes and stops downloading the iOS restore software for my phone. When I try to restart the download, it starts from the beginning. How can I get it to cary on from where it left off? Why doesn't it do this automatically!?
Thanks.

If you've already unsuccessfully tried to resume the download then the previously partial download may no longer be present on you computer.<br />
What you can do in such a case is:
* Move the old .part partial download and the 0 byte final file without the .part to another location.<br />
* Start a new download and pause it, don't close Firefox.<br />
* Copy the two files (.part and 0 byte final) that you moved above back to the download location to replace the new files that were created.<br />
* Resume the download in Firefox.

My Playhead thing won't start at the beginning.
