Slides play out of order on Apple TV

My sides are in a fixed order in my windows file. When they play on Apple TV through Home share, they are in some random order. Several others have had this problem. Is there a solution?

Good to know that someone else is having this issue.  After several weeks of trying to use this feature I have given up.  There doesn't seem to be any correlation between what's on my Photostream on iOS devices (I have three and they all show identical Photostream content) and my new Apple TV which just randomizes the content.
I have discovered one interesting thing.  Although the photos that show up in my automatic Photostream on Apple TV continue to be randomized, shared Photostreams that I have created seem to behave as they should.  What shows up on my iOS devices matches what is on Apple TV and in the correct order.

  • Songs Play Out of Order

    When I try to play music through iTunes, the songs play out of order. It jumps around to random songs instead of playing a full album or artist in the order the songs appear on the screen. I do not have "shuffle" turned on. I don't know if this has anything to do with the little checkboxes next to the song name, but some are checked and others aren't, and I can't figure out how to control that either. Some tips would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    So I'm going to have to go into my playlists and enter in track numbers? WEAK! I've made playlists of audio recordings, etc., that were not on CD, so they have no track numbers, then just plugged in some graphics as "album art."
    All because apple didn't forsee that some people would have made their own playlists and given it an "album art" graphic? That's a rather obvious thing, isn't it?

  • Opera arias and recitatives played out of order

    Operas are played out of order.  Also broken up and saved in itunes as albums.  Some albums are 1 piece, others are as many as 7-8 pieces.  Any ideas?

    Have you checked your iPod's Settings to make sure the Shuffle setting is set to Off.

  • Audiobook playing out of order

    I have audiobooks purchased from the iTunes store and many that I have transferred from CDs borrowed from the library. Books I have transferred are suddenly not playing back in order (some of these books I have had for several years), the tracks seem to be playing in "shuffle". I have saved each book as a playlist then in Get Info/Options have selected audiobook, part of compilation,remember position, skip when shuffling and gapless album. This has worked really well until recently though I am not sure if it coincides with the iTunes update. I have 32GB iTouch (original). Please help!

    Ok. I spoke with an apple representative today because I was having the same problem.
    Apparently if you have used genius or smart playlist this can throw your audiobook order off. All you need to do is
    #1 - Place your audiobook in a playlist
    #2 - Make sure the tracks are in order in iTunes
    #3 - Right click on the 'playlist' file. Press 'Copy to Play Order'.
    #4 - Sync your i-Pod
    If you still have problems you might need to create a new playlist and drag the audiobook
    tracks into it and then repeat the above steps.
    Hope this helps.

  • One track played out of order

    I've noticed this problem since one of the last updates: I have my settings on shuffle by album and the albums normally play from 1 to the end. However, certain albums skip a track in the middle and play it last. ex. 1-4, 6-10, 5 (My Morning Jacket, Z) It doesn't do this with every album, but quite a few. I've messed with the settings and album info, but can't find anything that would explain why it does this. And it does it on both my mac and PC...
    I'd appreciate any suggestions!
    mac book and dell   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Alright- figured it out.  Each out of order track had an "album artist" filled in (a field under artist when you click "Get info) and the others just just had "artist" filled in.  By filling in an "album artist" on all the tracks in addition to the already filled in "artist" field, I got them to arrange themselves properly in the album order.  I assume blanking out the "album artist" field on the tracks that had it also might have worked.  I think the key is making sure all the meta-data is exactly the same.
    Just posting this for the sake of anyone googling for answers to the same issue.

  • Playlists playing out of order

    I have a 4g 64g ipod touch.  I recently noticed that whenever I make a playlist in my computer and drag it into the ipod, the songs do not play in order.  I am positive that the shuffle isn't being used.  For example, if I start the playlist on song one then press the forward arrow to jump to the next song, it might jump to track number 16 or 47...but never track two as it should.  This also happens when I let the song play through and the ipod moves on to the next track itself.  The next track it plays is never the next in line as it should be.  I've tried to find a setting on the ipod and computer that could be causing this but have had no luck.  HELP! Thanks!

    No, I don't.

    That's your opinion and you are entitled to it.
    However, another way of looking at this is that the charge is high enough to discourage customers from using the phone-an-employee option and instead read the instructions that Apple have spent time and money writing, or use the forum. It's cheaper than having an employee on the end of a phone providing basic user advice. The additional cost of the phone service would be reflected in a higher purchase price for an iPod.
    Consider yourself lucky that you have the choice of paying for that advice, isn't it only available to those of you in the USA?

  • Properly numbered tracks still play out of order

    Here's a strange one:
    iTunes has stopped playing songs on albums in their proper order. This, despite the fact that I did a "Get Info" on the tracks and determined that they all have the proper "X of Y" numbering sequence, and that the album name is the same from one track to the next (no extra spaces, typos, etc.).
    And what's really weird is that the tracks are listed in their proper order when I select the "Album" view in iTunes.
    Nevertheless, when I play the album, they skip around, as though there was some mysterious "shuffle songs within album" setting. (Is there?)

    That could be it. I'm away for the weekend and not near the computer on which I keep my iTunes library. I'll check on Monday, and if that's it, I'll be sure to mark your answer as "solved."
    Thanks for the pointer!

  • Albums playing out of order?

    I'm using iTunes 12.1.2.27 on OS X 10.10.2.
    Something very funny is happening. In album view, whenever I double-click on an album, it will play the tracks in a random order. If I double-click directly on the first song in the album, it will play that, but the following tracks are in a random order.
    The only way I've found to play an album in the correct order is to either use the search and double-click on the album, or to click the play icon in album view.
    What's up with this behavior? Why do albums not *always* play in order? These albums are properly tagged, with each track having the right track number.

    Play a song.
    Tap the artwork (center of screen while playing)
    In menu that appears for Repeat, Progress, Shuffle, Genius....is shuffle on (blue means on, white is off).

  • Photostream photos out of order on Apple TV

    I just installed my new Apple TV and ran the software update. I then set it up to connect with Photostream using my Apple account, and my photos started appearing. So far, so good!
    Then I discovered a couple of serious bugs:
    1) My iPhone and iPad (both running iOS 6) both show 529 photos in my Photostream.  The Apple TV only shows 144 photos.  Both the first and last photo in my stream show up on the Apple TV.  All the missing photos seem to be somewhat scattered throughout the middle of the stream.
    2) The order of the photos in on the Apple TV doesn't have any logic to it.  On the iOS devices they are arranged by date, but on the Apple TV it's a complete jumble.  Photos taken weeks apart are right next to each other, and photos taken on the same day are separated by dozens of other photos taken at different times.
    Anyone have any idea what's going on or how to fix it???  Thanks!

    Good to know that someone else is having this issue.  After several weeks of trying to use this feature I have given up.  There doesn't seem to be any correlation between what's on my Photostream on iOS devices (I have three and they all show identical Photostream content) and my new Apple TV which just randomizes the content.

  • My pictures are playing out of sequence on my project.  Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get them to play in order?

    Hi.  I'm using iMovie for the first time.  I put in only pictures.  No videos.  When I hit play, my pictures are playing out of order and some repeat.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or what I need to change so they play in order?  Thanks!

  • Help playing out order

    Ever since I download the recent itunes update to my iPOD songs either play out of order or the song I start on just plays over and over instead of moving to the next song.  How do I fix this?

    I am at work, so I don't have Itunes in front of me. Anywho, you should be able to sort on any of the columns that you have set up in your library or playlist. Just click on the header bar of the column you want to sort on. Is that the issue......

  • Grouping Displays songs out of order

    I was wondering why a grouping would be played out of order even though the tracks are in order with the rest of the cd?

    oops, i meant, tracks are in order for the cd, and the grouping.

  • Is it common to be played out by Apple?

    Hi,
    I am just wondering if it is common to be played out by Apple?
    1. I made an order online, keyed in a different shipping address but after payment made it reflected as billing address.
              - Let's take this as me accidentally clicked on a wrong button that revert back the shipping address to billing address (which is highly unlikely).
    2. I called Singapore Apple Store and they confirmed the delivery on 8th Feb 2013 between 12pm to 5pm (which I had indicated it) to my billing address. 5.35pm I made a called and enquire politely as I have waited 5 hours with no news. An operator re-affirmed that the order is in the process of delivery and mentioned that their courier company will contact me awhile later after they checked where is the location of the delivery currently.
    3. At 8pm, there were no news nor call nor sms nor emails to notify and update me. 8 Bloody hours of waiting. I called back but all the offices and all available contacts are all closed. I managed to checked out the shipping company contact and it was closed. The time now is 8.36pm.
    I am seriously doubting the kind of service that I am receiveing after the payment made. Is this a norm or am I the only unlucky one?
    This order was supposed to be my younger brother's birthday's present today on 8th Feb 2013. Yes, Apple has ruined it. Thank you.

    This sounds like an issue with the shipping company to me, not Apple's fault, so you'll have to talk to the shipping company. There's no way to know what the problem might have been. Perhaps the company tried to deliver but there was not one there to receive the package. Or perhaps they're just behind. The only way to know is to call the shipping company.
    It's always risky, no matter who you are buying from, to order and count on a delivery being made on a specific day. There are too many things that can go wrong and very few companies can guarantee delivery.
    Regards.

  • Video and audio not sync when i play all forms of video. from music videos, to tv shows. but they play perfect on my iPod. and tv shows display out of order on iPod, but in correct order on iTunes/computer. I even ran a virus check just to make sure.

    audio and video do not syncronize.  all forms of videos. music videos to tv shows.  what do i need to do the syncronize them again
    they are in sync on iPod, but not on computer.
    another issue that might be from the same cause is, the order of episodes of the tv shows i have downloaded,   they appear in order on computer, but on iPod they show out of order.
    any tips on how to fix this would very much help.
    thank you.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    An old version of iTunes will cause this and mess up the videos on your iPod. Always make sure you always use an up-to-date version of iTunes.
    Make sure all the software on your computer is up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Updating iPod's Software
    You will then need to restore the iPod and then let iTunes update your iPod and put your music, videos, etc. back onto your iPod...
    Restore the iPod
