Playing music after switching Touch on

Hi!
Is it a feature or a bug?
- iTouch doesn`t resume playing song from previous place after switching it on.
It`s working good on Nano or Classic.
Thanx

well, this could be a workaround but I think that it isn`t usefull. also I think that battery usage in such way will be more than in case of booting OS (switching on).

Playing music, then switch to video and then going back to play list.

When I got my new touch I could be playing music, then switch to video, play videos, then go back to music and would be right where I left off on the song I was listening to it. Now when I switch to video and go back to music I have restart my playlist I was listening to. This totally blows, I hated it with my 5G video and now with the 2.1 update on my touch it does this again. Why in the world would this function be changed. I am pretty ticked

I had the same trouble w/ my iPod Touch 16GIG Gen 1 & it seemed to be worse after upgrading the software/firmware to Version 2.1; to the point where I was arranging to get it back to The Apple Store before it was 30 days old. The trouble seems to be worse as I approached 14GIG's of filled memory. I mostly have audio, but a few movies are loaded also. But I couldn't view the album art from end to end & it would also freeze & go back to the home screen after about 5 seconds of audio from an audio track intermittently. It was frustrating.
I used the HOME button on the top of the iPod to shut it down {holding it till the 'slide to power off' screen comes up & then doing the slide. Then using the HOME button to turn the iPod back on - seeing the cracked white apple when it reboots & starts back up. I haven't had any more trouble in iTunes. Maybe this reboot cleans up the memory of the iPod & a fresh reboot gives the OS a clean bill of health to look at the 14 GIGs of content that I've added in.
Give the Home button a try & let us know.
Best of Luck-

Can play music after updating to 4.0.2

My iPhone wont play music after updating. When I try to play a song it jumps back without playing after a few seconds. Any solutions?

After doing an OS update, now iTunes stops playing music after playing a few songs.

After doing an OS update, now iTunes stops playing music after playing a few songs. Any thoughts about how to remedy this?

Same Problem here. Also, when this happens, it loses whatever album art was playing before. I've tried reinstalling and it doesn't help. Any ideas how to fix this? It's really annoying!

My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

A 2nd gen shuffle is about six year old at this point. The likely cause is a battery that is worn out, with greatly reduced capacity or inability to hold a charge. The initial green light shows a good charge. The red light means the battery is drained.
Since the shuffle still appears in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore in case the cause is related to corrupted software on the shuffle. The Restore button is on the shuffle's Settings screen in iTunes. This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.
Also, when the light becomes red and the shuffle stops playing, try turning OFF the shuffle for at least ten seconds. Then, turn it back ON. This resets the shuffle. Does it play again? If it does, let it play until it no longer plays again. Repeat turning it OFF and ON until it no longer plays. Then, connect it to power and charge it to full. See if that makes any difference.
If that does not help, the solution is to replace the battery. If you have a repair shop do it, the cost is probably uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50) that has more features, and a new set of headphones, plus a one-year warranty.
If you are good at such things, this web site has repair guides

ITunes doesn't play music after sleeping mode.

iTunes doesn't play music. I try to start any song by remote app in iPhone from sleeping mode of mac mini.
I can see all my music library, choose any artist and any albom.
But when I try to start the music nothing is happen.
The button Play/pause doesn't work and the play-bar is not moving.
This issue have appeared after upgrade to iTunes 11 and new remote app.
After reboot iTunes everything is ok, but in a sleep mode I have the same problem.
Please help!

okay. i solved the problem. After reading a few other posts on related topics, it appears that using either the Setup Assistant(instead of the Airport Admin program) or if you are using the new version called 'Airport Utility' to use the option to 'Assist Me'. After going through the setup in this way it worked!

How can i get my iphone to automatically play music after watching a video or something that requires audio

I Have a iphone 5 and was wondering if there is a way i can get my music to automatically play again after watching a video or something that requires audio

Is the jack not fitting into the top of the iPhone?
If so then you would need this adapter for it to fit properly.

I-Phone stopping playing music after one track

I have a i-phone 3G and when I use the i-pod function it will play music fine until the next track and then it will stop and go back to the main i-phone screen. Anyone got any ideas why this is the case?

Are there check marks beside all the songs in your itunes library? Unchecked songs have to be clicked on individually to play them, checked songs will play one after the other.

Ipod Won't Play Music After 4.02 Update

Hey guys,
I just updated my Touch to 4.02 and now I'm having problems playing music and other sounds. At first, the Ipod would play though the built-in speaker but when I plugged in headphones the volume control disappeared and music/sounds would not play. I reset my Ipod and now it's the opposite; volume controls disappear and sounds won't play when I unplug headphones.
This is really frustrating as the update really didn't help me any it just keeps me from jail-breaking my Ipod, it's pretty ridiculous. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a similar issue. I can't get the sounds to play on the internal speaker on the iPod but they will play when headphones are plugged in. It appears that the software thinks my headphones are plugged in when in fact, they are not. Help!

How to keep Itunes playing music when switching from one user account to another?

On my old pc, that running XP, itunes would continue playing when I was switching from one user account to another.
Now I have a new PC running win8 and the music stops playing when I switch from one user account to another. I think Itunes is still running on the user that is not active, but the music is not coming out of the speekers.
Does anyone know how I can get the win8 pc to do as the old XP machine?

Hello over here,
The steps below detail how to place an input chooser that will allow for the adjustment of your keyboard layout while on the login screen.
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
Click Users & Groups to display the pane (or choose User & Groups from the View menu).
If the lock icon in the lower-left corner of the window is closed, click it, then enter the name and password of an administrator to unlock it.
Click Login Options.
Select the "Show Input menu in login window" checkbox.
From the Apple menu, choose Log Out.
At the login window, click the Input menu (shows the name of the currently selected input source next to a keyboard icon) in the upper-right corner of the screen, then select the desired input source or keyboard layout. If you don't see the input source you are looking for, move the pointer over Other Input Sources, then select the input source from the complete list that appears.

My ipad starts playing music after opening case

iTunes start playing music every time I open case lid. It is annoying and unprofessional. How to fix this bug?

Yes. That happens. Turn the keyboard off. If that does not seem to do it, turn Bluetooth off.
There are a fair number of reports from folks where the pad starts playing music at the wrong time. Like on the subway, or in a meeting. And it is always tied to a bt keyboard paired with the pad.
It is a 'feature' that starts playing music when almost any key is touched. So turn it off.
Question, if you have the music app turned fully off ( double tap the home button to see the task bar, touch the music icon until it jiggles, then kill it fully by touching the minus sign), does it still happen?

AirTunes - Unable to Play Music After Installing iTunes 7.1

I upgraded to iTunes 7.1 and all of a sudden I can no longer play music through my stereo speakers. iTunes gives an error "The Remote Speaker <speaker name> is not compatible with this version of iTunes". Airport Express is v6.2.
Has anyone encountered this error, and is there a fix?
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Ditto here.
Mac OS 10.4.9. iTunes 7.1.1 (5)
Airport Extreme Base Station "chained" to 2 Aiport Express Remotes. All connections are fine. Have internet on remote Macs. Airport Admin utility displays all three airport units, but I'm now unable to broadcast to the remote Express hooked up to my stereo in adjacent room. Have done this many times in the past without problem, but not in past couple months, so can't say if it broke with 7.1 or 7.1.1, but I get this message from iTunes:
The remote speaker "Living Room Speakers" is not compatible with this version of iTunes.
Prior to restarting iTunes (and being sure all Aiport station firmware was up-to-date, I was getting the message that no speakers were connected (double-checked all speaker and stereo connections), but now just the "not compatible" message.

Apple TV stops playing music after 5 minutes requiring iTunes restart

I am using a 2nd gen Apple TV, Apple Airport Extreme, and a PC. Since the latest Apple TV update, whenever we play music from our iTunes library the music only plays a maximum of 5 minutes then stops. To get it to play again I have to exit iTunes on my PC and start it up again. There are no error messages to indicate what may have happened. I have tried a bunch of different things including restarting everything multiple times, disabling the screen saver on the Apple TV and restarting my router.
I have been using this particular Apple TV since release without issue and and have only experienced this since the last Apple TV update. Help!
Thanks

I have the same problem and haven't found an answer or seen one. I don't have any problems downloading/streaming off the net but the iTunes timeout is driving me crazy. Did you ever find the problem?

IPod touch stop playing music after two songs!!

Hello,
I hope you can help me, because my problem is very frustrating. I am listening to my iPod touch, in my car through the car speakers, or through the earbuds. Once a song stops playing and the next song after it starts playing, the second song gets about 20-30 seconds into it, and then it stops. Completely stops, and I look at it and I am back at the home screen. This does not happen every-time, but I still don't know why it does this.
I also have another problem of the same type, but this has to do with the videos in YouTube. I watch a YouTube video almost all the way through, but then at the end, maybe 1 minute left or so, it stops, and goes back to the home screen.
Also, when I am on the internet, Safari, and I am listening to music while loading a page, the music stops quickly after the page starts to load and then everything gets put back to the home screen.
I know thats a lot to read, and maybe reply to, I'm sorry, but those are all my problems.
Thank you so much for your time.
-Sean

I have the exact same problem as originally reported. The song stops in the middle and then proceeds to the next song. One time I also saw the failure where I was returned to the main screen. More details follow.
My issue is 100% repeatable when it happens. As an example, I have a song I purchased on iTunes and downloaded last night. The song is 3:53 long and when I play it on my iPod Touch, while watching the "progress" bar, it consistently stops when the song reaches exactly 1 minute played. The progress bar continues silently for a few more seconds before then proceeding to the next song. This happens 100% consistently. However, if I manualy drag the progress indicator past the 1 minute mark while playing this song, the song will then play successfully until the end. I have the latest version, 1.1.2, on my iPod Touch.

IPod Touch 4 not playing music after iOS 5 Update. Help?

Like most people, I too have been having issues with the new iOS 5 update. After installing it, everything is perfect... except for the fact that my iPod only seems to play songs I have in an m4a format now. All of my other songs in an mp3 format will not play. The other thing is, when I play a playlist and such, the song I select is skipped and goes on to the play the next song in the list. My iPod was working perfecting before the update. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
in iTunes select the phone or iPad
Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.
Now check them both back on and everything should copy back onto it.
Working now !!!!!
