Regarding playlist shuffle control

I've got a first-generation iPod touch, and within the last few software updates it seems like my device has become much more awkward to control. Take shuffle settings for podcast playlists, for example. Try this:
1. Create two playlists on your device, one consisting of songs, the other consisting of podcasts.
2. Go to the playlists of songs and tap Shuffle. You'll hear them played in random order.
3. Tap the pause button.
4. Navigate to the podcasts playlist and tap the first podcast. It will start to play. When finished, a random podcast will begin to play next.
Here's the challenge: What's the fewest number of steps in which you can turn shuffle off for your podcast playlist? Here's the shortest I've found: 1) pause the podcast; 2) navigate back to my playlists and select one containing only songs; 3) start playing a song in that that playlist; 4) tap the shuffle icon to turn off shuffle; 5) navigate back to the podcast playlist and begin playing it again in the desired order. That's a real pain, and if you're driving a car you're pretty much out of luck.
Here's my question/challenge: Is there a less awkward way to turn off shuffle when you're playing a podcast? I really, really hope I'm missing something obvious.

Hi,
There is no specific OKCODE to capture double click in screen programming. This can be achieved quite easily in ALV using EVENTS.
Thanks and Regards,
Lakshmi.

  • Playlist shuffle problems

    I'm having issues with playlist shuffling on my iPhone 4, and the only discussion I found with the same problem remained unanswered.  I have a playlist of various classical music that I want to shuffle randomly, and it won't.  If I play it in order, all 53 songs will play and can repeat in order.  If I select "Shuffle" from the list of songs, or if I hit the blue "shuffle" icon on the cover art, it changes from "1 of 53" to either "1 of 8" or "1 of 9" (depending on which song happens to be playing).  The smaller groups don't seem to be based by artist or by album, but I can't get it to shuffle all 53 songs. I tried making a smart playlist by genre, and I tried making the playlist manually.  Nothing seems to work.  I have another mixed playlist with various artists and multiple albums, and it functions normally: I can get it to shuffle randomly through all 51 songs across albums and artists no problem.  There must be some property of the music files or the playlists that I'm missing that's causing this bug, but I'm at my wit's end.  Any suggestions?

    Do all the songs in your playlist have a check in the box to the left of each song's name?  Songs without a check will be ignored unless specifically selected to play. If you don't see the checkboxes, go to iTunes > Preferences > General and check "Show list checkboxes".
    To check or uncheck all boxes on a Mac with one click, hold down the Command (cmd) key and click on one of the checkboxes with the mouse.  You can use this in a library, a playlist or in search results.
    If the check marks are not the source of your problem, select one of the songs that won't play when shuffling. Open the song's information window (cmd + I or File > Get Info) and click the Options tab. Check that "Skip when shuiffling" is not checked.

  • With the new version of iTunes, I cannot seem to have the playlist shuffled so that it is shuffled when downloaded to a CD.  Please help.

  • Making A Playlist Shuffle?

    Is it possible to make a playlist shuffle, so you can add all the music and it won't play the same band till all the songs you chose are through with that artist?

    Ya, in the iPod settings, if you set it so it shuffles music, your playlists will be shuffled as well. At least it certainly is working that way on mine. Even when I pull up an artist and a specific album to listen to, it shuffles that album. So in my experience it is the iPod's setting that determines if shuffles is ON or not and if it is ON, then everything gets shuffled, library, play list, album, etc.

  • ITunes playlist shuffle feature

    I have always found the iTunes playlist shuffle feature fails to play all my songs and only accesses a narrow selection and then repeats thes without ever playing a broad selection of my playlist. Is there a way to overcome this?

    Yes. Go to SETTINGS > SHUFFLE, and set it to SONGS. Then, go back, highlight the name of your playlist and press PLAY. It will play just that playlist, and it will be shuffled.
    CHeers!

  • Playlist Shuffle Shuffles to Other Playlists

    Since I've upgraded to iOS 6, when I shuffle a playlist (I push the shuffle button while a song is playing in a particular song or, while looking at the songs within the playlist I push the shuffle button) the playlist will shuffle into another playlist instead of to another song within that playlist.
    Does anyone know how I can prevent this? Would really like to shuffle my songs within my playlist and not my playlistS.
    I have a iPhone 4S 16GB.

    <<When I copy a podcast into another playlist, it goes away as soon as the original is deleted>>
    The files are on your HD once. Every file is in the Library. What's in the Playlist is a reference or pointer to the file in the Libary. If the file is deleted from the Library then it's not available to the playlist. If this makes no sense to you. consider the waste of disk space if a file was duplicated everytime it was added to a playlist.

  • Playlist shuffle and/or continous play

    Gentlemen,
    just got the new Apple TV, which in general works great. Only two problems concerning the music playlists via iTunes:
    Problem 1:
    - I am sucessfully connected to my iTunes playlists and can see every single album/title on my TV
    - I also can select one single title and play that music
    - but when I select Shuffle (in fact, it's "Zufällige Wiedergabe", as I am using the german Version), it gives me an error message like "Content not available" (rough translation). I also got this error message when I try to access that playlist not via the remote, but via the remote app on iPhone
    Problem 2:
    - If I select one single title in a playlist, I would expect that after the end of that song it plays the next one in that playlist. But it's not happening. So I would need to selecr every single title after the end of another one - very annoying.
    Somewhere here in the forums somebody wrote that at least problem 2 is an error that was fixed with the latest update of Apple TV. But yesterday after installation, Apple TV already updated itself - so it looks like it does not work for me.
    Can you guys help me with the two problems?
    Kind regards
    Alex

    For your first problem, it sounds like your songs are unchecked in your iTunes library. Unchecked songs will not play through shuffling and playlists. They appear slightly grey instead of white and are only able to be played by selecting that particular song. Your second problem is likely related to that fact. Make sure your songs are checkmarked in your iTunes Library and that should resolve all your issues.

  • My playlist Shuffle doesn't work

    Awhile back I created a playlist on ITunes and after entering a bunch of songs, I clicked on the Names tab to put the songs in order so I could print the list. Now, the playlist will no longer Shuffle the songs when I click on Control and Shuffle. Can anyone tell me how to undo what I did so I can shuffle songs in the playlists again? Thanks.

    I noticed the same thing, although when I push the forward button, it picks a song randomly. I don't know if after that it plays in order again, but it does get you a different song (if it did and you shuffled to the last song, I wonder if it would end the playlist and break the run rhythm?)
    It will probably be a future bug fix if it is a problem. Until then, just hit that forward button and you will be on your way.

  • Playlist shuffles and plays in random order

    My new iPhone 3Gs is driving me nuts when I'm trying to listen to a playlist I created and loaded on my computer. The iPhone plays all of the songs on my playlists in random order. I have the "shake to shuffle" mode off and "shuffle" is not on. I even check to see if the "shuffle" was on in iTunes and it is not. What is the deal? Anybody else having this problem?

    From the Now Playing screen, tap the album cover to see the additional song controls. Makee sure the shuffle symbol on the right side under the scrubber bar is selected to "white".

  • Why is my iPod Touch 4th generation playlist shuffle repeat malfunctioning?

    I have a 4th generation iPod touch that is malfunctioning whenever I shuffle play a playlist, album, or individual artist's songs. I always leave the playlist repeat option on when I listen to a playlist or artist and all the songs in the playlist will play fine, but when the playlist ends and is supposed to start over from the beginning it does not play the first song that began the shuffle. It plays a different song that is in the playlist in the first slot and then continues in the same order as the first time through the playlist. For example I have 5 songs by the Eli Young Band on my ipod & when I play these 5 songs on shuffle with the loop option on their order through the first play through is Say Goodnight, When It Rains, Crazy Girl, Always the Love Songs, and Even if it Breaks Your Heart. Then after the fifth song the playlist begins again but instead of playing Say Goodnight in the one spot it played Even if it Breaks Your Heart followed by When It Rains, Crazy Girl, Always the Love Songs, and finishes with Even If It Breaks You Heart. So in the second play through of the playlist Say Goodnight was skipped & Even if it Breaks Your Heart was played twice & I can't figure our why. This happens with every artist and playlist I have no matter how many songs are in the playlist, and a different song is placed in the one spot and then repeated later every time the playlist repeats. The ipod has done this since I got it in December 2012, and I have already tried turning the ipod off and back on and restoring it to factory settings to try and solve this problem with no luck. I have also installed the iOS 6.1 software and the problem still persists. Any solutions to this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Try hitting the button again so it shows the replay sign and a little #1 in the top right corner of the icon.

  • Why aren't my playlists shuffled?

    When I look at a playlist on my computer, the playlists are shuffled. But on my iPod, the lists stay in alphabetical order. I've reset my iPod, restarted my computer, connected the iPod, disconnected the iPod. Any other suggestions?

    On the iPod, go to SETTINGS > SHUFFLE and set it to SONGS. Then, go back & play a playlist & it will play shuffled.
    Cheers!
