Songs resume at last position

New to Ipod so sorry if this is basic, but I have looked everywhere. I am trying to understand how to get a song or vid previously played to ALWAYS start at the beginning next time I play it, regardless of when that next time is. Sometimes this happens and sometimes it does not.
Is this a glitch, or operator error???
Thanks!

Videos start where you left off, I got in the habit of pausing and pressing the rewind button before exiting the video so it starts at the beginning next time I watch it.
Songs start from the beginning, unless you pause a song and turn off the ipod, then it will be where you left off when you turn the ipod back on.

Cant resume from last played song !!!

I have Xperia M2 with 4.4.4 update, firmware 18.3.1.B.1.8 and Walkman 8.5.A.3.2.
I have smart key 1.0.1.17 installed. I have enabled MUSIC mode in smart key to play / Pause on single press.
When i press headset key one time Walkman starts playing music but every time i pause Walkman for some time
and press key again. Walkman start playing song from 1st song of playlist.
Why its not starting / Resume from last played song ?

I've seen this with music stored either on the SD card or Internal storage but not with integrated spotify.

Can't insert new row in last position in row set

I am trying to programmatically insert a new row into the last slot of a View Object's default row set.
I normally can do this:
Row newRow = vo.createRow();
// set stuff on the row
vo.last();
vo.next();
vo.insert(newRow);and, voila, the row is in the last position.
But on this particualr view object, when I do the above, the row is inserted in the first slot.
There doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the View object. it is a child Vo in the data model, but that shouldn't matter.
When I debug with vo.getCurrentRowSlot(), even after performing last(); next();, vo.getCurrentRowSlot() returns 0, never 3.
Has anyone else run into this behavior and if so, any resolution or explanation?
FYI, I was able to use the following workaround:
Row lastRow = vo.last();
if (lastRow != null){
    int indx = vo.getRangeIndexOf(lastRow) + 1;
    vo.insertRowAtRangeIndex(indx, newRow);
} else {
   vo.insertRow(newRow);
}

would this solve your problem

Return to last position after record?

I have a key command ("return") set to return to last position. The problem is, when I record a take, this function returns me to the beginning of the recorded clip instead of where I actually started from. If i don't record anything, this works fine. How do I get around this? Thanks,

I think the last position is the punch in point. It's a separate locator event from where the place you manually started. So..therefore it takes priority.

Remembering last position

I've added the new Harry Potter CDs to my Ipod, but these consist of over 1000 1 or 2 minutres tracks.
Is there any way of getting my ipod to remember where I last finished. I ticked "Remember last position" against all, the tracks but this only seems to work on each short track
Thanks
Ainsley

I can think of two solutions.
One would be to use the program iTunesJoin (can be downloaded from versiontracker.com) to join the tracks from each CD--it will create chapter markers where each original track was. If you have 13 CD's, you could then have 13 long tracks with each track containing chapter markers for the smaller original tracks.
The 2nd possible solution would be to place the CD tracks in order in a smartlist. Make is so that the smartlist only contained the HP album trakcs, only contained tracks whose playcount was 0, and set to live update. As you listen to a track, it will automatically drop off of the playlist.
I actually combined these two solutions. Used iTunesJoin so that I wasn't dealing with 100's-1000's of tracks and then used the smartlist so that each CD/track dropped off once I listened to it. Then when I went back to the playlist, it automatically started with the first CD that hadn't hit a playcount of 0 and picked up wherever in the CD/track I left off.
Hope this makes sense. I know that it sounds kind of confusing.

IPhone does not remember song or track or position in playlist or audio book

I am hoping Apple will fix a problem with Ios7.0.x where iPhone does not remember song or track or position in playlist or audio book. It worked fine with ios6.x

Hello SashMir,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains steps to complete a restore on your device. You may want to consider a restore then setting up as "new," to alleviate the issues you've described:

PODCAST doesn´t start in the last position

Hi too all,
I have an iPhone 6 with last IOS 8.2.1. If I'm listening a Podcast, then I stop it, when I back to listen, Podcast doesn't start it from the last position. It is always starting a lot of time before the las point.
Any solution????? I am turning crazy bcs I cannot follow any podcast.
Thks
Miguel

Hello Corbella,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the Podcast App is not saving the playbac position. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
Podcasts for iOS: Sync podcasts - Apple Support
Playback position
Podcasts can remember your playback position between devices and computers, so you can always start where you left off. If Sync Podcasts is on for your iOS device, playback position will sync. However, you might need to turn on this setting in iTunes on your Mac or PC.
Select iTunes > Preferences.
Click the Store tab.
Select "Sync playback information across devices." It may take a few minutes to sync.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Move resultset's cursor to last position

Hi, i want to say, if it is possible, what can i do to move the curser of resultset before the last position, because i want to read che last record.
Thanks and excuse me for my english.
Daniele.

Some thoughts:
1) why do you call next() before last() - it should not be necessary.
2) you should test the return valiue of last() - if your resultset is empty (no rows retrieved), you get false, and this means you are not on a valid row, so getString() would fail.
3) Where do you catch the exception - show it to us.
What do you mean with: "i receice an exception: null" ?
- What kind of exception? A NullPointerException?
- print out e.printStackTrace() and post it.
I assume your driver doesn't support this feature. Which driver is it?

DE 1.5 and 1.6 does not store the last position correctly

Hi!
I've seen this problem in DE 1.5, now I tried to install 1.6 and I see the problem is still here.
I have some DRM-protected ebooks on my laptop. I open one of them, read, close on some page (for example, 162). Then I open another ebook, close it. Then I open the first ebook again and the position is 163-th page, not 162. Close and open again, the position is 164. And so on.
I expect DE should store the last position without any "auto next page" functionality. Could somebody say me what is wrong here? Or, perhaps, this a bug of DE...

ITunes forgetting "Remember Last Position" setting

Hi, first post
Have a problem with iTunes that's only started happening recently. I have put some audiobooks into iTunes, selected them all, right click, Get Info, and tick "Remember Last Position" and "Skip When Shuffling". Click OK, then if I immediately go back into "Get Info" and look again, they've gone back to their default position of not remembering, and not skipping when shuffling.
If I choose an individual file and try to do the same, those two options are greyed out and can't be changed....which is odd.
Am I doing something wrong, or does it sound like a bug?
Thanks in advance

Those 2 settings are stored in a file named iTunes Library.itl, I'm pretty sure, instead of the actual content file tags.
I suspect your Win 7 permissions aren't allowing itunes to change it, somehow. Which is really weird, if you can still add music.
When things are grayed out in the Info screen, it usually comes down to windows permissions. Even if you are the only user and an admin account.
Make sure you have *full control* and ownership of that file. Here is quick lesson with screenshots on changing permissions, whether you want delete it, or in your case, modify it.
http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/windows-7-how-to-delete-files-protected-by-tru stedinstaller/
Remember to restart itunes after changing any permissions, so it will read the new settings.
If it still doesn't let you make changes, try temporarily turning off UAC.

I have pre-ordered a few songs over the last few months

I have pre-ordered a few songs over the last few months like most people. I have checked for new downloads within the itunes store but nothing shows up. I've got the emailed links & have clicked on them, when it opens into itunes I am asked more than once to imput my card details as a billing info screen pops up. Now there is enough cash in the account to pay for these songs. I do not understand what is going on & I am getting rather frustrated by this! I've emailed apple but didnt seem to help me much last time! Anyone got any idea what i could do before i end up crying!
Thanks

I purchased a song of iTunes last night. It says it has successfully downloaded but only plays the first second of a 2.43min song. How do I fix this or get a refund?

If the store in your country does allow it, try to download the song again, see this support article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise report a problem with your purchase. Sign into the iTunes Store and view your purchase history in your account section. Beside the recently bought song should be a link "Report a problem".

I am using iPhone 5. I have a smart playlist that shows the 25 most play songs within the last 3 months. However, the list on my phone got completely messed up. Please help me.

First thought: Have you used the same Apple ID for all the purchases you're talking about? If not, that could cause an issue.
Assuming you've used the same Apple ID all the way through everything you're talking about, here's the second set of questions:
When you say you can't play the songs from the iPhone playlist, can you see the playlist on the iPhone? Is the song visible in the playlist? Is it visible under "Songs" in iTunes on your iPhone? Is it visible in "Albums" on your iPhone? Is the song in iCloud?

Resume playback of last position of shuffle

Is there a way to make this thing (30 gig video) resume playback of shuffle position?? every time I plug it in to the PC to recharge or sync it, it looses place and I have to start all over with shuffle and due to the lack of randomize and random function I end up listening to the same 100 songs (give or take a few new ones but mostly the same random bunch) and not the other 1500 songs, and Yes I set the shuffle function in itunes, and yes its updated??

Ya, when you sync to the computer it will dump you out of whatever you were playing so no, there is no way to get back to the same playlist at the same place as you were before.
However you could create a dynamic playlist to help keep you from listening to the same stuff over and over.
Simply create a new Smart Playlist, check live updating, no rules needed up top, then check the box and change the setting for this line...
Limit to ### items selected by least recently played
where the Red items are the ones you can change. The ### one replace with an appropriate number like 200, 500, whatever.
So what happens is as you play stuff they become the MOST recently played and when you stop the iPod and it dumps out of the playlist, when you go back in all those MOST recently played items will have been taken out of the playlist and replaced with different least recently played.
So even though your playlist is starting over again, you won't be hearing anything you heard recently. If you ever play all 200 (or whatever number songs you picked) before syncing or otherwise leaving the playlist, it will go back to the main menu. When you reenter that playlist, it will have been repopulated with a new set of 200 least recently played items.

HELP! Lost my entire library of over 700 songs with my last iTunes update. I had a lot of trouble even getting to update, and when it did it took out my entire library. Even after signing in with my apple ID it will not pull up my music. VERY frustrated.

It started with my iTunes not wanting to update at all. I kept getting an error that read "cannot access %appdata%". Ok so I let that go, still had my music, podcasts, books, etc...I just didn't have an updated iTunes. It still worked so I was cool with that. Then my phone broke this week, and I had to get a new one. When I came home to register, it didn't give me my songs like it did the last time I backed a device up to my account. So I had to do it manually. Not even half way through, it just stops and won't let me add anymore of my songs, and the few songs that I tried to drag over are gray in color on my phone and you can't listen to them when you tap them. Never mind all my other songs that I lost as well. I mean, come on! I had almost 300$ worth of music that I feel has been stolen. My kids received iTunes gift cards every Christmas and birthday for the past 3 years, and now it's gone. ALL OF IT. VERY VERY UPSET! Ok, I'm getting ahead of myself, so back to the issue. I'm beginning to get flipped out when it stops working altogether. iTunes, computer, everything. It finally says, iTunes has an update available that will solve the issue (yeah right). Me being dumb, I guess, I begin the steps to again try and download this update. Still getting the error mentioned above, so I start finding out what to do to get rid of that error so I can GET MY SONGS ON MY NEW PHONE. Go to apple support, and it says to delete iTunes and all its similar components, and it won't even let me do that!!! I go into administrator side, and it says I need permission. I had already gotten into our administrator side to which only my husband and I know the password so I already have permission. I give up on that for a while, and see if windows has any updates. There were a couple so I download those. Try to go back into iTunes once that's all done, and it shoots up this license aggreement. I'm excited at this point thinking my ordeal is over. So I click agree and iTunes comes up. That's when I discovered all my music, apps, podcasts GONE. I click on iTunes match, and it says something about matching music for $24.99 a month?! I WANT MY MUSIC BACK THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR. If this does not get resloved, I WANT MY MONEY BACK that was spent on this music. If this isn't resolved I also will never, NEVER reccomend iTunes, or any of its other music/app/book/podcast related business to anyone ever again. I have been an iTunes user for almost 4 years now, and I have never been this disappointed. When my phone broke we almost got a regular phone to save money, but because of all my music/books/podcasts already in my iTunes account we got another iPhone. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO TO RECOVER MY LOST LIBRARY!

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo
