  • Why are the forward and backward buttons so close to the play/pause button on the lock screen?

    The quickest way to control the playing of music or podcasts is on the lock screen after double tapping the button. The controls for forward, rewind and play/pause are way too close together. There seems to be no logical reason for having them so close when there is room on the screen. Is there a way of moving these buttons?

    No.  But tell apple about your concern http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Itunes 10 keeps launching whenever i press the "play/pause" button

    since upgraded to snow leopard (amongst other painful problems) i noticed that itunes10 wants to launch every time i press the play/pause button on the keyboard.
    this is very annoying. eg, i am listening to music on spotify and then want to pause the music - press pause - and then itunes launches and starts playing music. that's not what i want and is a design flaw.
    any ideas how to prevent this from happening?
    thanks!

    Apple have put a key on the keyboard called Play / Pause it is specifically designed to operate iTunes, the same goes for the forward and reverse buttons as well.
    Therefore it make sense that if someone presses the Play / Pause button that they want to operate iTunes. If iTunes is not running then it starts iTunes for you.
    I use the feature a lot as it is quicker than starting iTunes via the mouse.
    The software can't tell if you have accidentally pressed the button or not, just as it can't tell if you have pressed the Expose or Dashboard buttons which also take action when you press them. All I can suggest is that you type a little more carefully, especially as you know that the button with start iTunes.

  • When I was setting up the language Setting, I pressed the play/pause button three times and now the voice that talks you through everything speaks extremely fast. How do I get her to speak slower?

  • Dead spot on nano 7 the play/pause button on LCD non responsive

    non responsive/dead spot on nano 7 the play/pause button on LCD

    I was also experiencing this. I'm using a MacBook Pro, and iTunes 7.6(29) in Leopard. Clicking the pause button didn't work, but the spacebar does, as does the remote control.
    One thing that seemed to work was pressing forward / backward instead. After I did that, pause button in the mini player functioned as expected, even after expanding to full-size and back, and after starting and restarting iTunes. I have not seen what happens after starting / restarting my machine yet.
    Worth a shot, anyway.

  • How do I view the play, pause bar at the bottom of a project, on a .exe captivate file?

    Hi, I have saved one of my captivate projects in a .exe format. When I view the project in full screen, the play, pause bar at the bottom of the screen disappears. We have tried changing screen resolution but it hasn't helped. Can anyone assist with this?

    Hello,
    Which version of CP do you use? I'm asking this because the playbar is treated differently in CP3 and CP4: in the last version the space for the playbar is added, in CP3 playbar is in the space.

  • My menu button is working like the play/pause button

    What should I do? Restoring it didn't work when I did it with iTunes and I can't restore it on it's own because the menu button doesn't work properly.

    Hello DatCanadianGuy,
    It sounds like you are unable to use your Menu button as expected because it acts as if it were a play/pause button. I would try restarting the device first by holding the actual play/pause button down to see if that turns it off.
    If it does not, and you have done the restore per this article:
    How to restore your iPod:
    1. Make sure you've reinstalled the latest version of iTunes.
    2. Open iTunes, and then connect your iPod to your computer.
    3. After a few moments, it will appear in the source list in iTunes. If the iPod's display doesn't show "Connected" or "Do not disconnect" you may need to put the iPod into disk mode to proceed.
    4. Select your iPod in the source list and you will see information about it appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes windows.
    5. Click the Restore button. You will be prompted with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download of the latest iPod Software. The 4 possible restore options are:
    Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
    Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
    Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores with the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    Note: For Mac users, A message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator's name and password.
    6. A progress bar will appear on the computer screen indicating that the first stage of the restore process has started. When this stage is completed, iTunes will instruct you to leave iPod connected to your computer to complete restore.
    7. During the stage 2 of the restore process, the iPod will show an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remains connected to the computer or iPod Power adapter during this stage. Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see since the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    8. After stage 2 of the restore process is complete and the iPod is connected to the computer, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences similar to when you connected your iPod for the first time.

  • Center or in short Play/Pause button on iPod Shuffle 4th Generation Late 2012 is not working

    Does Apple replace my iPod Shuffle because the center or play/pause button is not working but all buttons are working except for the center button my iPod Shuffle is Silver and it has a scratches and a little dents and the back was pop up? what should i do help me does Apple replace it for free n warranty?
    and if it has a Apple Care protection plan for iPod will Apple replace it for free?

    If you did a Restore in iTunes, and it continues to have the problem, if it is covered under warranty or AppleCare, you should probably contact Apple tech support directly (not the users forum).  If you have an Apple Store nearby, a good way to do this is to make a reservation at the store's Genius Bar and take it there.  You don't have to have a reservation, but you can make one at the store's web page

  • The lock/unlock button on my iPad 2 not working.

    I 'm having a problem with my iPad 2(only 9 months old). The on/off button would not work for me, although it still clicked. However it worked by itself every so often, locking/unlocking itself and it trys to turn itself off(as strange as that sounds, its true). I tried restoring it but it did not help. I then rebooted it and this fixed the problem with the button not working, I can now lock it and unlock it myself. It still has a mind of its own though and keeps locking itself.
    I'd be grateful if anyone can help me with this?
    Thanks

  • Removing client's ability to use play/pause button

    Hi all
    I am keen to use Presenter to put together a language listening test for some clients. My clients want their students to not be able to pause the presentation so, say, they can't pause, translate word, pause, translate word and so on. In order to do this, I need to remove or lock the Pause/Play button that appears in the skin of a Presenter module.
    I realise I can completely remove the Player bar by opening up the vconfig.xml file and changing the value next to <uishow name="playbar"> to false. This is a quick and dirty solution and may do the trick. However, I would like the students to still be able to see the time count down for each slide in the player bar. Why? Well, because my clients want their students to listen to an audio track, receive one minute's thinking time and then go on to answer a question about the track. The students should know how much time they still have available. This means somehow either removing the Play/Pause button or at least locking down its functionality.
    I'm not a Flash wiz (though I do have it) but I don't mind making changes to a few codes here and there. I just need to know which file/s and which code.
    Your thoughts/expertise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
    Peta

    Hi Peta,
    You're right...you could hide the playbar by setting that value to "false", but as you have no doubt already seen, that modification eliminates everything, which won't totally solve your problem.
    Since you have Flash, I'd recommend that you create a simple .swf file that will ultimately hide the Play/Pause button in the playbar area of Presenter content.  I'll be honest...I haven't "locked" the Play button, but that might be something to investigate IF what I'm proposing here doesn't do the trick for you.
    So here we go....
    In Flash, create a small stage area and on frame one in your timeline add the following:
    this.onEnterFrame = function () {
    _root.m_controlBar.m_playBtn._visible= 0;
    Save the Flash file as "playBtnKill.fla" and then publish it.  Then head back to PowerPoint and add the swf to the first slide in a presentation using Presenter's Import Flash function.  Publish the content and the Play button should be gone!
    Programming NOTE: because Presenter is set up for Flash Player 6/7/8, its best to code everything using Flash Player 6 / Actionscript 2.0 as the coding environment.
    A couple of things to keep in mind about this:
    First, by placing the swf file on the first slide of your PPT deck, the Play button will be affected for the entire duration of your presentation.  If you need it to show / hide / show /hide periodically throughout the deck, then you might want to think about how you want to handle the overall stucture of your course.  Meaning, that what might work is to kill off the Play button entirely, but use a PowerPoint graphic (that looks like a Play button) and then time that object to appear after a certain amount of time.  Of course, then you'd have to hyperlink the PPT object to the next slide in your deck so that folks will be given an opportunity to advance to the next slide.
    Second, since your intention is to remove the Play button, you should probably leave the "Advance by user" feature set to "NO", otherwise you will ahve to provide some mechanism of navigating from slide to slide (as mentioned above).  At least this way, by the time you've reached the end of the audio for a slide, the presentation will automatically advance.
    Hope that helps!

  • Is it possible to change function of Play/Pause buttons on Satellite P100-347

    Hi.
    I would like to know if there is a way of changing the play / pause button on my laptop to stop opening windows media centre. I like to use itunes to listen to my music and the other buttons (back, forward and stop) all work with other programs but there is no way to use the play and pause function without Media Center opening.
    It looks as though you can only change the internet and CD/DVD function in control panel.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi
    Simply answer: No its not possible to change the play / pause buttons functionality
    The Toshiba Controls utility provides two options.
    There you can assign and select a program to internet button and to CD/DVD button.

  • Captivate 2.0 Play/Pause button Not Working

    Hi,
    We are facing a problem in captivate 2.0 file. Due to some
    reason the play/pause button isn’t working in the captivate
    file. There are few links on a particular screen which goes to
    respective slides in the captivate file. Once the learner jumped on
    a respective screen then the Play/Pause button is not working. Even
    though I keep on clicking the Play/Pause button the Audio is not
    stopping, it keeps on playing. When we click thrice on the
    Play/Pause button, then the Audio stops.
    Could you please help me in resolving this issue?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Exact same thing is happening to mine. It's a conspiracy so we'll all have to buy a new piece of ipod tech. I've been happy with it so far, but now it is just like a pack of gum, but less chewy and no tasty goodness.

  • Pavilion G7-1070us play/ pause button on keyboard not working

    My pavilion G7 has been a great computer for me but now it has started to experience a problem. The Play/pause button on the keyboard (f7 key) does not play or pause the music.
    I have the pavilion G7-1070us with windows 7. 
    Please help

    Hello @Unit_27 ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    Thank you for the information about your keyboard! I'll see what I can do to help
    I think it would be a good idea to take apart the keyboard, or some of it, to determine if the keys are obstructed somehow. Some information on the supported method of cleaning the keyboard is mentioned in this document: Cleaning your Notebook PC
    If this does not resolve the issue, I would reinstall Windows on the computer. The issue at this point would be software related, to some unknown extent. A recovery will address any software issue. First, make sure you backup everything you need to. Here is some information on how to do this: Backing Up Your Files
    Once this is done, it is safe to reinstall the computer. Here is some additional information on how to do this properly: Performing an HP System Recovery
    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks and have a great day!
