Podcasts play automatically on IO6

Has anyone else found that Podcasts play automatically after ending a call or switching off the alarm after updating to IO6?
This is happening to me and a colleague after we updated to IO6.

This has happened to me multiple times recently. If I listen to a podcast, pause it, go about my day, and then later in the day receive a phone call, my podcast will begin playing as soon as I hang up with the person who called. It doesn't seem to be happening when I make an outgoing call. Only started after I updated to iOS6. Hopefully this will be one of the fixes they push with the first iOS6 update.

Podcasts Play Automatically - Why?

I hate that since the last update, when a podcast episode finishes playing, it starts the next episode automatically.
How do I stop this? Ive turned off shuffle and the other thing that loops.

I agree this is a problem for me as well - not only the fact that it plays the next episode, but the default sort order is from newest to oldest.
I listen to podcasts in chronological order, and therefor as a show ends it starts playing the previously aired (older datetime stamp) than the one I just listened to.
Is their some way to either:
- Turn off the "auto play next podcast"; or
- Change the sort order of the podcasts from oldest to newest (not I have it sorted this way in iTunes but the setting doesn't transfer - same issue as the ipod 5G).

How can I make the iPhone podcast app automatically stop playing after one episode?

How can I make the iPhone podcast app automatically stop playing after one episode?

When playing a song, are the controls at the top of the screen there? (Genius, Shuffle, Loop?)
If not, tap the center of the page once to expose them
now keep tapping the circle on the left part of the exposed controls untill a one (1) appears...

Ipod Nano 7th Gen - Is it possible to prevent next podcast episode from played episode from playing automatically ?

I have had an Ipod Nano 3rd generation for years. I mostly listen to Podcasts while walking and like to be able to select the sequence in which I listen to them. This was possible by selecting the shuffle option on the 3rd generation Nano. I have just purchased the 7th generation Nano and much to my disappointment I can't see any option to prevent Podcasts from automatically playing the next episode. This seems like a really backward step compared to the 3rd generation model. Does anyone know if it is possible to prevent next Podcasts from being played automatically with the new Ipod Nano 7th generation ?

Perhaps somebody else has figured it out, but I haven't been able to on my 7G Nano. Not without putting each podcast into a separate playlist and then syncing those playlists over to your Nano. Some people like that it continues to the next podcast automatically where as others like that it stops after each episode.

Next podcast starts automatically

On my new iPod nano (3rd Gen), when one podcast finishes, the next edition of that podcast starts automatically, if I have more than one edition of a podcast. On my old iPod 5G, I'd be able to choose the podcast I wished to listen to after one finished. This is important, because my sync settings are based on podcasts that have been played and I don't want to lose podcasts that "play" inadvertantly.

Different iPods work differently in this regard, and the fact is that, whichever way Apple uses for a new iPod model, they inevitably get a bunch of complaints from people wanting the other way. I guess they could make it user-configurable, but I think Microsoft already owns the patent on Too Many Preference Options No One Understands (TM).
You might try stopping playback a few seconds before the end of a podcast to make sure you don't start playing the next one by accident. Of course, you can always right-click/control-click in iTunes and choose "Mark as New" if you make a mistake.

How can I get a song to play automatically on a web page ? iWeb 1.1.2

Can I get a song to play automatically when my web page opens? iWeb 1.1.2

As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

How can I disable .mp4 videos from playing automatically on Yahoo News? (and elsewhere)

I posted a similar question last week about disabling html5 videos and that seems to have worked. But I notice that when I look at the Yahoo News main page, some videos (thumbnails) are playing automatically as I'm scrolling up and down the page. I find that annoying, distracting, and is probably consuming data on my limited plan.
I see other questions posted about .mp4, but those are all how to PLAY rather than NOT play videos.
Any help would be appreciated.

How can I STOP iTunes from automatically trying to add podcasts to my iPod when I plug it in and sync it, so I can manage the files? I have already unchecked "Sync Podcasts" and "Automatically include,"yet EVERY time I sync it,it still transfers podcasts as the last step, and at other times randomly, when trying to just add some MP3's to a playlist, for example. I can't seem to find any other option to uncheck, and can't find an answer from my so-far internet searching.

erict, you blew me away with that suggestion! It was something so simple I couldnt believe I hadnt thought of it! But in the end it didn't work, which I was really surprised about. On Windows anytime anything was moved itunes was hoplessly lost, but on this mac it still kept up with everything. I tried renaming folders, moving folders, and even renaming moved folders but it still kept trying to import.
I even went as far as deleting EVERYTHING i had moved to the Mac, which didnt really work. It still kept trying to import what wasnt there which made it continue to freeze up. However, after doing this it, the freezing was not nearly as bad. It gave me enough of a break to cancel it through the itunes dialog box at the top of the app. So in the end, thats all I really needed to do, only before I had deleted everything the freezing would not allow me to do it.
So now Im reimporting everything again, only slowly, and only a few Artists at a time.

ITunes 11.1 and / or the Podcast app on iOS 7 will not allow me to create play lists in iTunes. Is there an app that will allow me to create podcast plays lists and play them on the iPhone running iOS7 ?

iOS 7 will not alow podcasts lists in the music app so we have to use the podcast app
but iTunes 11.1 and / or the Podcast app on iOS 7 will not show podcast play lists created in iTunes (well maybe it does but clicking on the podcasts app causes iTunes to freeze so can not select)
sometime some folders created in iTunes have appeared with the Podcast app but others not.
creating an on the go list in my iphone is agony - I have over 100 podcasts I have subscribed to and when creating a list you can not view by most recently downloadded podcast
AND you can't search (no search bar) so I have to scroll through to find a podcast that might have been updated - but they are not in any logocal order that I can work out (not alphbetical or date added).
Video podcasts are mixed with audio
podcasts I delete (unsubscribe to) keep coming back
its a disaster
my question is there an alternative iPhone app that works with iTunes
no I don't want an app where I have to download to the phone directly, thats 100 subscriptions I will have to make agaian

Agree about the disaster part. I haven't found a fix within iTunes.
I gave up and switched to downcast 2 days ago. Even though it was a hassle to re-subscribe to all my podcasts, im so much happier.
To make switching easier, I found that in iTunes you can "get info" on the podcast and copy the RSS address to the clipboard. Put all of these in a message note. When iCloud syncs the note to your phone, you can copy and paste the urls into downcast one at a time to subscribe.
Downcast has crashed on me occassionally when I'm subscribing to feeds, but so far it has recovered gracefully each time and no data was lost.

Podcasts play one at a time?

Last night was the first real night of using my nano since I got my crystal film. So I was listtening to my podcasts while trying to fall asleep and discovered that, unlike with my shuffle, the podcasts on my nano are categorized into individual subscription folders and therefore once a single podcast plays, it stops. How do I get my podcasts to play one after the other? Is there any way to create a podcast playlist into which I can put them all?

Well thanks to GolfSierra's explanation, I successfully created a smart playlist so my podcasts play sequentially. But I was just wondering now whether it's normal that in addition to my playlist, the nano shows the purple podcast icon in the playlist with all my subscriptions? It was there before which is fine but now when I go to listen to my podcasts on my nano, it's annoying because the word "podcasts" shows up in a couple of different levels - one representing the top level subscriptions and then another one reflecting my smart playlist - and it gets confusing about which one is which.

How do I make a project play automatically

I have recorded 4 presentations, all with a power point presentation first slide. When doing one of them I found somewhere a setting so that it starts playing automatically, the other 3 need the user to either click on the start button on the toolbar or use the enter key. I have searched and searched to find how I managed to get the one starting automatically but can not now find it - any help from anyone would be much appreciated as I would like them all to start playing automatically.
Thanks

Hi again
Well, it's because you didn't advise up front what version of Captivate you are using. As you seemed to be a new user, it would appear I mistakenly assumed you were using version 4.
You might want to review the link below:
Click here to read
As for auto starting, if you are using Captivate 3 or older, it should already be playing automagickally. This would infer you have a Button, Click Box or Text Entry Box object on the first slide. Any of those objects will typically pause the playback until they are dealt with.
Cheers... Rick

How can I make music (mp3) play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)?

How can I make an mp3 play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)? I have been searching the net for answers for over 10 hours with no answer... My movie will not be for the web, it needs to be portable (CD or flash drive)...
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
thank you!

You just need to look in Help for the Sound class and possibly SoundChannel... if you have an MP3 in your library - right click it, and go to properties. Set the sound to export for ActionScript - and give it a class name - mySound will work. Then you can make it play with something as simple as:
var a:SoundChannel = new mySound().play();

Podcast plays only via link from Apple

My podcast plays when I type this url, that Apple sent to me in my confirmation that the podcast was accepted:
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=213721454
but I am unable to hear it if I just search for it by typing "one square mile"--it shows up but doesn't play.
Also, I seem unable to subscribe to it. It is in my playlist but won't sync on an of my iPods.
Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated!!

sorry can't remember how i fixed this but i did

After installing OS 6, I chose the option to have my podcasts download automatically, but they just say preparing to download and nothing happens. Is there still a way to manually download or is a fix coming?
