Song keeps repeating; doesn't go to next song

suddenly the songs do not move to the next song when finished. I need to do it manually. Any thoughts?

In the past I have accidentally set the repeat function. If you go to play the song and you have the iPhone upright with the album art displayed... you click on the album art and you get the time controls at the top of the screen. On the left there is a button for repeat (looks like a race track) and on the right the button for shuffle (looks like an X). If it is white it is not set, if it is blue it is set. Make sure it's white.

  • Song keeps repeating itself

    I just purchased a new iPod Touch. When playing my Purchased list the first song keeps repeating itself and I can't get the iPod to move onto the next song on the list. Read the online instruction manual and can't solve problem.
    Any suggestions out there.
    TIA

    Tap the "Now Playing" screen to bring up the scrubber bar. To the left of the bar is the repeat symbol, tap it until it turns white (OFF) because it sounds like it is blue (ON).

  • Even when I shuffle a playlist, the same song keeps repeating.

    Even when I shuffle a playlist, the same song keeps repeating.

    Tap on the album art  and make sure the circular repeat arrow isn't blue with a little one next to it.

  • TS2771 when playing tunes, same song keeps repeating

    When playing tunes, same song keeps repeating and does not move on to next song. Is there a repeat button somewhere/? When I turn shuffle on and off and it makes no difference.

    On the left side of the music playing screen right below the scrubber bars it the repeat control. It is the arrowed racetrack icon. Tap the icon until it is white.

  • Playing song keeps repeating

    Hi .. when I play a song in iTunes or on my iPod Touch the selected song keeps repeating no matter what Playlist I use. It simply won't move to the next song automatically.
    What have I done?
    What do I need to do to fix this?
    I have gone between shuffle and not shuffle, tried the Controls - Repeat menu but commands are greyed out. What to do? Thank you in advance.

  • Songs Keep Repeating

    I have a 3rd Gen. 32G iPod Touch. When I play it now, the song keeps repeating and won't move forward to the next song with out me manually using a remote or the touch feature to move to the next song.
    I had this issue with a 2nd. Gen iPod Touch I previously owned. That was resolved when I plugged it into iTunes and updated the software.
    Well, I did the same with this iPod and it didn't resolve the issue. Does anyone know how I can make the iPod play normal???

    Welcome to the discussions,
    did you check if the ipod is set to repeat songs if you activate the scrubber bar and look at the icons activated? See also http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_3.1_UserGuide.pdf , page 45

  • ITunes doesn't play the next song, it just stops after one track.

    I have iTunes 11.0.1. When I play a song in my playlist, I expect the next song to start as the first one ends, but iTunes stops and doesn't play the next song. I'm missing some sort of setting but what?
    It's not a smart playlist, just a playlist of favorite music I've built up over the years.
    Mountain Lion.

    Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - Command-click will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
    Hope this helps.

    When listening to songs on my itunes acct (without ipod attached), I can only play one song at a time. It doesn't automatically play next song on list. It happens with all playlists. It only started happening when I downloaded the latest itunes update.

    Are all songs checked in your playlist?

  • My ipod and itunes both are skipping to another song about in the middle of the song. It doesn't happen on all songs...only some songs. I have reset the ipod, I have done a restore, I have reloaded itunes, I have updated the ipod but still am unable fix

    My ipod and itunes both are skipping to another song about in the middle of the song. It doesn't happen on all songs...only some songs. I have reset the ipod, I have done a restore, I have reloaded itunes, I have updated the ipod but still am unable to figure out why. It did not used to do this. I can't figure out any pattern to the songs it does it on versus that it doesn't do it on. Some of the songs are purchased, some are imported, etc. We are running Windows 7.

    how long have you had your ipod? mine did the same but after a while you need to get a new one because of the battery...

  • My ipod nano 6 will only play one or two songs then I have to force the next song to play. It will start several songs before settling on one. This just started and I havent changed anything. How to I make it go back to playing songs continuously?

    Then back it up and do a restore.  If that does not work and if you are still under warranty, call Apple tech support or take the iPod to your local Apple Store or an AASP.

  • Why do songs keep duplicating in my Library. One song has duplicated five times. If  I delete the unwanted duplicates will it delete the song entirely from my library? How do I get the four unwanted duplicates out of my library?

    Why do songs keep duplicating in my library. One song has duplicated five times. I have many that have duplicated up to 3 times. How do I get the duplicates  out of the library without removing the song completely?

    As above, Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
    The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

  • HT201272 songs quit half way through playing and next song begins

    I just downloaded an album and each song quits half-way through and the next song begins  playing on pc computer

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    I am having difficulty getting my ipod touch off repeat. It just keep repeating the same song. I tried shuffle and it just goes to the next song and keeps repeating that song.

  • TS3474 Song keeps repeating

    Although I have a playlist, the songs don't move in consecutive order. A song will keep repeating  and I have to manually move the cursor to the next song. This is so inconvenient when exercising, please help! Thanks

    It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.
