Shuffle feature doesn't work

I click on the shuffle icon to try to shuffle songs in a playlist and it doesn't work. I tried editing preferences but nothing changes. If I click on the header labeled name it will sort them A to Z or Z to A but not shuffle. The shuffle feature does however work only on one of my playlists and that's one that only lists the name of the song with no other info in the other columns. Am I missing something here? Why would it shuffle only one playlist? I have the latest download of iTunes software, have and Ipod 30g and windows xp software.

My Shuffle does the opposite - kind of. When in shuffle mode, all songs shuffle as they should. When in continuous mode, all songs still shuffle.
No crashes, just always shuffling.
I used to wear it around my neck while working out and sweating profusely - which in turn, I believe, shorted some terminal out there or something.
Not sure of a fix for yours tho. Sorry. I have just learned to accept the sweet surprise of a new song each time.
BTW - what do you mean by "it crashes"? Turns off altogether?

  • Shuffle feature no longer working

    Since I updated iTunes software, my shuffle feature doesn't work. If I choose a song to play, when it reaches the end it simply begins replaying the same song - endlessly. If I choose shuffle, it chooses a song at random and plays it - endlessly.
    Any ideas?

    have you got the 'repeat' logo set by accident. on the left hand side the arrows which go round will be blue rather than white?

  • Music App shuffle option doesn't work

    Stats: iPad 1, iOS 5.0.1
    Music App shuffle option doesn't work.  I have already reset the iPad, removed all my music and resynched.  Shuffle button is selectable, but just plays the songs in alphabetical order, even if I try to skip to another song or start anywhere on my playlist.
    So far this version of music player for apple product is disappointing, the iTunes app before never had these issues.  There are some serious bugs in this Music app, Apple your comback success was largely because of iPods and iTunes, so music is a big part of Apple users use, please fix this.

    Hello,
    Yes I believe this is a known bug in Firefox OS v1.0. [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=883781 Bug 883781].
    The bug is marked as resolved in Firefox OS v1.1. Once ZTE update the Open to v1.1 the bug will be fixed on your device.
    v1.1 of Firefox OS was officially released yesterday. Hopefully it won't be too long before it reaches the ZTE Open. See here for more details:
    [https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2013/10/09/firefox-os-update-1-1-adds-new-features-performance-improvements-and-additional-language-support/ Firefox OS Update (1.1)]
    I hope that helps.

  • Shuffle feature has stopped working on MacBook

    I'm using iTunes 11.1.4 on Mac BookPro to serve as digital music source for home hi-fi audio system.  I have over 300 GB of high quality files, mostly Lossless, some AIFF.  All of a sudden, the shuffle feature has stopped working.  It doesn't work in any format - regular playlist, Smart Playlist, or the entire music library.  Whether I hit the icon, or right click on the Playlist and hit "Shuffle Playlist" - nothing happens.  The only thing I can think of is that perhaps my iTunes Music file/library has become too large?  But can that really be?  Any ideas?

    The songs will play shuffled but they will display in the sort order, not a shuffled order.
    Songs will display;
    Song 1
    Song 2
    Song 3
    Song 4
    Songs will play; (randomly)
    Song 2
    Song 3
    Song 1
    Song 4
    I twill play sing 1, then song 49, then song 10

  • I tried copying a photo and pasting it in another event/group within iPhoto but the paste feature doesn't work.  This wasn't an issue with both Leopard and Snow Leopard.  Do you have any solutions or tips?

    I bought a new MacBook Pro with OsX Lion as operating system.  I use iPhoto a lot and when I tried copying a photo then pasting it to another event/group, the 'paste' feature doesn't work.  This wasn't the case with Leopard and Snow Leopard where the 'paste' feature worked.  What I did was to paste the photo first to the desktop before transferring it to the new event/group.  I brought my Mac to the Apple store where I bought it and the technicians were themselves surprised that the 'paste' feature didn't work.  Chalked it up to glitches in the Lion os.  So how do we fix this?  I just find it absurd that a feature that used to work in Snow Leopard has been disabled in Lion, and the user still has to undergo an additional step to make it work, when new technology is supposed to make things easier for users. 
    Also, hasn't anyone noticed that it takes longer for the computer to boot upon opening? 

    Instead of copy and paste drag the photo to the new event. Or flag it and use the add flagged photos to selected event command

  • My "Find My iPhone" says on map that my phone is here at my house...but it's not! So...I guess that feature doesn't work?

    My "Find My iPhone" says on map that my phone is here at my house...but it's not! So...I guess that "Find my iphone" feature doesn't work?  Very frustrating.  My iphone volume might be turned off ...does that make a difference if you use the sound locator on the find my iphone?
    Tech support INSISTS that the iphone locator on i Cloud is accurate.  How can it be?  My phone is NOT here!

  • "Fit slideshow to music" feature doesn't work

    I've selected "Fit sideshow to music" on a slideshow I've made. Using a song imported from my iTunes library. Ken Burns effect is switched on.
    But the feature doesn't work. The song ends but there are still more slides to show.
    Isn't the idea that the computer will speed up the pix so they end just as the music ends?
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

  • IOS 6 Bug? VIP feature doesn't work w/ ActiveSync mail

    I noticed that the new VIP feature doesn't work against ActiveSync mail. The feature works as advertised with my Hotmail account, however.
    I am able to select VIP users from within my AS account but their emails are not being filtered into the VIP folder. I do get an audio alert however when their emails come in.
    is this by design or is it a bug?

    How do I turn off the shuffle feature within a playlist on my iPhone? Tapping the shuffle button doesn't work

    The shuffle control shows up when you touch the screen in album view. This brings up the scrubber bar, repeat control and shuffle control. The shuffle control appears as crossed arrows. When it is blue it is On. When it is white it is Off.

  • LR4.1 : "Edit-In" "Open as Smart Object with Photoshop..." feature doesn't work with 32bits

    Hi there,
    I am running LR4.1/CS5/ACR6.7 on a Win7 64bits system.
    The feature "Edit-In" > "Open as Smart Object with Photoshop..." does work Ok with raw files (.NEF).
    However, when i do try to use the same feature with 32 bits .TIFF files (which are output of the LR4.1's "Edit-In" > "Merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop..." other feature), nothing does happen (the Photoshop application windows does open but w.o the image that i've just selected).
    I've used search engines and Adobe online help to see if there was any limit preventing the usage of this feature with 32 bits .TIF files but couldn't see such note.
    Thanks for your help !
    Albert

    Thanks Rikk,
    That did work with a DNG file :-)
    I am working with very huge .TIF files (400MB), so i am wondering if size could be the main issue (although my PC has lots of HW resources).
    I will explore the DNG way, a format which seems anyways to be very promising now with LR4.
    In case anyone has an idea why it doesn't work the .TIF files, please shoot !

  • Annotating pdf documents in Preview - the text search feature doesn't work?

    Hi everyone,
    I'd like to annotate my pdf documents using preview. However, I realized the other day that as soon as I start annotating a document (with notes, shapes, highlighting, etc), the preview text search doesn't work anymore.
    Thanks for any help or advice!

    This is a known problem. I have seen one suggestion to print the annotated PDF as a new PDF in order to get search capability back. You can try the Apple Discussions "search" feature at the upper right corner to look for more suggestions.
