Return to where I left off on a song...

I listen to a lot of long mixes on my iPhone. Is there a way to pickup a song where I left off so I wouldn't have to start at the beginning of the song when I decide to come back to it?

In iTunes, right-click any song, select "Get Info", under "Options", "Remember Playback Position". You can batch change them all, in iTunes, if you like. No way to do this on the phone.

  • My ipod is no longer keeping my tv shows in order, or returning to where i left off when watching an episode.  Anyone have a problem like this?

    My ipod is no longer keeping my tv shows in order, or returning to where i left off when watching an episode.
    I have deleted them and re-added from my computer.  On my computer, when plugged into Itunes,
    they show as in order by air date--on my ipod, they are random.  Also, my shows are not
    restarting where I last left off--they are going back to the beginning, so I have to fast forward!
    Very frustrating!  Anyone have a problem like this?

  • HT1689 How do I return to where I left off in my contact list when texting multiple people on 5S?

    How do I return to where I left off in my contact list when texting multiple people on 5S?

    If you 6 menu buttons are pointing to Tracks then select the Track and in the property inpector you can set the Menu Remote Control options. Set Menu to the button on the menu you want to jump to.
    You can set this option individually for chapters in a Track also so,

  • How can I return to where I left off on a menu?

    I have a menu with 6 items in it. When you select each item you are taken to that page and then you click on the return to menu button and are taken to the number 1 item on the list each time you return to the list.
    I want to come back to where I left off in the menu rather then starting over each time. So, if I am on list item #2 and come back to menu I want to come back to list item #2 to navigate down to item #3 or even come back to list item #3. I do not want to came back to list item #1 everytime and then have to scroll down farther each time.
    Any help in the right direction?

  • Bookmark / return to where user left off tracker -- Flash 8?

    Is there a template or plug in that anyone is aware of that is written in Flash 8 that keeps track ("bookmark of sort") of where a user left off on a .swf or .htm tutorial that includes:
    The user must be able to leave a .swf or .htm tutorial and return to it later if necessary, “bookmark” their place – it does not have to be completed at one sitting.
    For reference and viewing purposes, the user must be able to go back into the .swf or .htm tutorial once successfully completing it.
    The .swf or .htm tutorials must have a mechanism for keeping track of user progress and completion.  It must provide reports on user status and who has successfully completed the tutorial.
    Cindy

    you'll need to build that yourself.  you can use the flash sharedobject unless you need to store user progress in a central (server-based) database.

  • I have thousands of photos.  When I select a photo and edit it I want to return to the Organizer where I left off.  I don't want to go to the most recent photo and have to find my way back to where I was.  Is there a way to make this happen?

    When I am in the Organizer and edit a photo I want to return to the Organizer where I left off.  I don't see that as an option--it always returns me to the most recent photo.  Is there a fix?  Thank you.

    Art,
    I am trying to follow your very precise steps, and in my case (PSE11 also, Win7), the focus stays on the edited picture after I return from the editor to the Organizer. I am pretty sure that in the previous post describing your situation, I was able to reproduce the problem, but I don't remember on which version. I just tried in 'Folders' view mode to edit in a selected folder, then I clicked 'All media' so that no folder was selected. Same result in both cases.
    Even if you prefer to work in folders view, you could take advantage of the ability to use 'albums'. It's a misleading word to describe a selection, a 'collection' of pictures, which you can sort as you want. It's a kind of  'playlist' like with music items. In the organizer, you can select a folder and create an album (even a temporary one) just by choosing 'create instant album'. Suppose you have made an album from a folder or a selection of highlighted pictures to edit. You can order them in date order, import batch or 'custom' order'. Since PSE12 you can also sort them in filename order. You should never lose the 'focus' on your last edited picture when coming back from the editor to the organizer. If the purpose of that album is only to help in organizing an editing session, you simply delete the album (the playlist) if you don't want to keep the list afterward.
    I hope someone will be able to confirm how that can happen...
    Edit;
    I have just read Brian's post.
    That may be the difference...

  • Going back to where I left off in a document

    I am an old Pocket PC user so please bare with me.  I have some stories and books that I have as Word doc files.  With my old Pocket PC I could turn the unit off any where in the document and turn it back on, open Pocket Word and be right back to where I was when I shut down.  Using Quick Office I can go back to where I left off if I just let it go into sleep mode.  If I turn the unit off, for instance over night and go back to Quick Office you end up starting back at the beggining of the document and have to find your place again if you can.
    Is there a way to save or tag where you finished reading so that you can return to it? 
    Would the Kindle app or something like allow me to do that? 
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Joe

    You can save the document in Quick Office by clicking on the return arrow on the device. The following options will appear:
    1. Discard
    2. Save 
    3. Save As
    4. Cancel

  • Does the iPhone remember where you left off in podcasts?  What's the latest

    The music player in my Nokia phone only remembers where you left off for the last track-- switch tracks or turn off the phone and it returns you to the beginning of the track! It's absolutely annoying and renders the podcast playing feature almost useless.
    I've been looking at the iPhone and iPod Touch and found a bunch of threads in the forums that indicate that both have had similar problems (though there are some workarounds).
    Has Apple fixed this? Do the iPhone and iPod Touch now remember where you left off for EACH podcast you were listening to?
    It would be wonderful if that were the case and might stop my fence sitting on buying one!

    I've had my iPhone for several months and this is the most aggravating issue. Before finding this thread I had no idea why or when it would lose it's place. If it's only happening when you synch that's good to know, but not much of a work-around.
    Where the iPhone had my old iPod beat was the fact that my podcasts were always magically up to date. This is because the iPhone is always getting plugged in to charge and synch while the iPod stayed in the car all week.
    I hope someone will post back with more details for work-arounds.
    Better yet, I hope Apple fixes this bug. AND, makes navigating within long audio files (i.e. podcasts) as elegant as it was on my old clickwheel iPod.

  • I have Ipod nano 3rd generation that I use to listen to audiobooks in my car.  I turn the ipod off when I get out of the car and when I restart the ipod, it doesn't start where I left off.  Any suggestions

    I recently received an Ipod nano 3rd generation, which I use to listen to audiobook in my car.  Every time I leave the car, I stop the Ipod and take it with me.  When I return to the car and start up the Ipod, it does not pick up where I left off in the book.  Any suggestions?

    It could be that the CD player will only playback "Redbook" CD's from the previous position.
    And starts mp3 type CD's from the beginnig.
    However.. it's not Logic related.

  • Downloads resume from zero, not where they left off

    I know this is a tired question, but it STILL HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY APPLE. Why do interrupted downloads start back at zero instead of picking up where they left off? Is this too difficult of a bug for the iTunes engineers to deal with? Being overseas in a country with very slow internet connections, this is the most irritating issue I've ever dealt with. It's almost impossible to download podcasts because they always get interrupted somehow, then I have to start from scratch every time. Thinking it's time to consider ditching Mac + iTunes for something more reliable....
    Will someone from Apple please explain why downloads do not resume correctly?

    I am having the same problems, and this is driving to distraction, if the internet line for a second runs to zero MB per sec, I get kicked off the download and have to start from the beginning. There must be a way to start where the download stopped.

  • How do I get Digital Editions to open back up where I left off?

    Every time I go back into digital editions on my laptop I have to flip through page after page to figure out where I left off.  Why does digital editions not go straight back to the last page I was on.  On my andriod device my books open up to where I left off.  Why is this not the case on laptop/desktop computers?
    This makes Diginal Editions very impractical.

  • I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod. I mostly listen to audio bks, not a lot of music. Often, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, therefore I don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hr book.  How can I get MMI to start where I left off?

    I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod pluggedinto the MMI.  I mostly  listen to audio books, not a lot ofmusic.  The books are 4-6 hours long, vs 4-6minutes with a song.  Often, but not always, when I start my A6, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, thereforeI don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hour book.  How can I get the interface to stay stopped where I left off?  I have gone into iTunes and placed my current book as the first "song" on my iPod for ease of finding it, but often the MMI starts it over at the beginning.  Thank you if anyone has any experience with this.  My dealer in San Rafael, CA says they've never heard of this issue. 

    I think my iPod, which is an iPod touch 3rd generation , which is a lot different from a nano, which really makes it almost impossible for me to help you, which is why I suggested that you post your question in the iPod nano community.  Your first post says that your product is an iPod nano. I think the people who answer those questions would be most likely to help you. If yours isn't a nano then you can pick the right community from here. This community is really to answer questions about this forum, or issues that don't fit anywhere else.

  • How can I bookmark, in iTunes, so that the songs I play and then stop in middle of song then come back later - it will start where I left off.  What is the switch in iTunes to make this happen?  Thank You

    In iTunes I would like to set it to bookmark where I am holding in a song on my iPOD.  Let's say I want to play a song that I listen to yesterday and stopped playing it in the middle on my iPOD.  Today, I want to listen, on my iPOD, to the same song and have it start playing where I left off yesterday.
    Can someone please tell me what I have to do in iTUNES to have this feature on my iPOD?
    Thank You

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

  • Can I download a file in different sessions or should it be in a single session? In other words can I pause the download of a file, shutdown/restart my system and then resume download from where I left off? Or will it start from the very beginning?

    Can I download a file in different sessions or should it be in a single session? In other words can I pause the download of a file, shutdown/restart my system and then resume download from where I left off? Or will it start from the very beginning?

    If a server supports resuming downloads then the download should continue where it left off.<br />
    You can test that by simple starting a large download and wait a minute or so before pausing it.<br />
    Then you can close and restart Firefox and see if resuming works.
    You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.<br />
    That will make Firefox ask for confirmation if you want to cancel the download if you close Firefox.
