Why, at the end of a podcast, does it automatically start playing my music?

Hi
On a 4S, when I used to get to the end of a podcast it used to go to the next. For a while though it has automatically strarted playing my music from the 1st song. The result is me quickly going mad and hating that song!
Why is it doing this and how can I stop it?!!
Thanks

Hi Jeff,
First I am not sure if your wife has multiple episodes of the same podcast she wants to listen to or if she has many short individual podcasts. Please note that below my suggestions differ depending upon which situation fits her problem.
I do not have a 1G Nano but I do have an older iPod Mini which I suspect behaves in the same way as your wife's older Nano. I, too, was frustrated in having podcasts play one at a time. I have a couple of podcasts that have daily episodes and each of those episodes used to stop at the end and I had to select the next one to listen to it. This was frustrating because I usually build up a week's worth before getting around to listening to them. Then, by accident I stumbled upon a solution for the Mini. The podcasts also showed up under albums (and artists too) so I set my iPod to play the complete album, selected the podcast I wanted to listen to and was able to listen to all the episodes in that particular podcast. On rare occasion the order of the episodes might get out of chronological order.
If your wife has multiple individual podcasts then she might want to try setting up a playlist with all the individual podcasts she wants to listen to and go with that. Experiment with the playlist idea and the shuffling options of the iPod to get multiple podcasts to play uninterrupted.
I must admit that since I got the Touch for my birthday this winter I don't use the mini as much and am a bit rusty with all the settings of that iPod. My Touch will play through all unlistened to episodes of a particular podcast but will still stop at the end of each different podcast. I have not had the need to do anything drastic on the Touch since most of my individual podcasts are 1 to 2 hours long which is ample time for me to get in a good, long walk!
Hope this helps you and your wife with her 1G Nano.

Unable to sync new iPhone 4s. I have iTunes version 10.6.1. Using Windows 7. My device appears on iTunes but I am not able to select the sync option and it does not automatically start the sync option when plugged in. Ive tried reseting the device.

I am unable to sync my new iPhone 4s OR my iPod Touch 4 to iTunes.(this is the first time I am plugging them into iTunes) I have version 10.6.1. Both devices are up to date with the latest software version. Once I plug the device in, it is recognized on iTunes.The synce process does not start automatically. I am unable to select the sync option. I've tried reseting the device and restarting iTunes and the same problem happens. I have plugged in my husbands iPhone 3gs and the sync process starts automatically. I have also added my computer as an authorized computer for the new devices. What now?

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Why with the new iOS 7 update does my music rewind a second once I unlock my phone? This is really annoying and they should fix it

Why with the new iOS 7 update does my music rewind a second once I unlock my phone? This is really annoying and they should fix it

Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion. There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field. if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it. If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.

I attempted to update the software of my dated iphone 3G last evening. My phone was constatantly connected with iTunes during the process. The iOS version 4.2 downloaded and installed successfully on my phone...only to state at the end that "Your SIM does not seem to be supported. Please insert a supported SIM....". It gives me no option on the phone other than making an Emergency call. I can't even restart or reboot the phone, or access springboard, etc. The black screen displays a USB cable plugged in to the iTunes logo. Incidentlly, I have been using this SIM for many months on this phone. I also tried inserting other functional SIMs. None of this works. Can someone help please!! Thanks,

Maybe it was hacked before and now through the update it's locked back to the original carrier.

Why is the brightness of my iMac become 100% automatically when I turn on..

Why is the brightness of my iMac become 100% automatically when I turn on my computer even though I set the brightness to the lowest before I shut it down.
I want to set the brightness to the lowest every time I turn on the computer automatically.
Is there anything I can do?

Hi,
There seems to be a serious issue with screen brightness on the 24" iMac. About 6 days ago I bought a 24" iMac (2.66 Mhz model w/4 GB RAM + 640HD).
Out of the box it had Leopard 10.5.5 installed; there were several problems.
1. Screen brightness was way too BRIGHT. Display preferences would not pull brightness down. At least not down far enough so that the screen could be viewed without extreme discomfort. Plus add insult to injury a reboot would reset the preferences to maximum brightness. NOTE: An upgrade to 10.6.1 did NOT fix the issue.
2. Viewing a browser page via either Safari or Firefox (latest versions of each) was not good. A vertical scrolling would be jumpy and appear pixelated. Upgrade to 10.6.1 seemed to fix most of the issue in Safari, but Firefox was still not working properly. The issue appeared like a horizontal "ripple" in about the bottom 2/3 of the browser window. The effect did NOT extend outside of browser window. Changing screen resolutions did not work.
3. Connecting a USB Logitech head set caused issues with Sound preferences.
If the head set was connected during startup the machine would recognize them as main sound. The internals speakers did NOT appear in the Sound preferences. as an optional choice. Removing USB headset and reboot would return the internal speakers to the Sound preferences. Plugging in headseat would work for a while. We could repeat and same problem would occur.
These are all in 10.6.1 - definate bugs.
Returned with the iMac to the Apple store. Bottom line, after nearly three hours; the Apple technician, and everyone could see what we were talking about.
Regarding the screen brightness. Nothing they could do about it. They stated that "not too many people have complained about it, to their knowledge." They stated that the electronics in the "florescent" panel could not be turned down the same way. TRANSLATION: The programers at Apple let this one slip past them. As a customer (software programmer & network analyst) I expected a bit more of an intelligent answer.
However.
Examining the 20" model I noticed that we could turn down the screen brightness - at least to a level that my wife and I could live with. PLUS the settings remained after a restart. Something that was NOT happening with the 24" model.
So - we exchanged the 24" for a 20". Frankly we are a LOT happier. The Safari/Firefox issue is still carried over to the 20". However it is not nearly so noticable on the smaller screen.
Plus the USB headset did not cause the same Sound Preference issues.
So - Thanks for the speedy return/exchange of the iMac. But someone needs to look at this from the programming side of things.

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring

Music on my phone does not show all the iTunes artwork, even after doing a backup restore, eliminating all music and restoring I have an iphone5 64 syncing about 8000 songs, so updating all is a time consuming, and now maddening process. Never had a problem before iOS 8. Someone (hello Apple) needs to develop a utility to help manage artwork recovery.

Why are the emails in my "trash" folder deleted automatically every Saturday?

Why are the emails in my "trash" folder deleted automatically every Saturday? The employee at the Apple Store told me to contact my email carrier, but they told me it was an Apple issue.
iPhone5c iOS 8.1.2

I keep Outlook Express running on my desktop all the time. The emails come into the inboxes of both my desktop and my iPhone. Once the emails are received on the desktop and I read them on my phone, they automatically go into the trash folder. If it really is trash, I manually delete them and they go over to the other trash folder. Then I can empty all of them at once. If it's really important, sometimes I manually move it to another folder. But then Saturday comes along and the trash folder all of a sudden becomes empty.

Hello. I am receiving "error codes" when trying to dowload songs. It charges me but the songs never download and I have restarted itunes and it does not automatically start downloading as instructed online. Help?

Hello. I am receiving "error codes" when trying to dowload songs. It charges me but the songs never download and I have restarted itunes and it does not automatically start downloading as instructed online. Help?

I don't know exactly what they said b/c they are nolonger on my screen. It said something to the effect of "incomplete dowload, there was an eror during the dowload of *Song*".
The songs purchased were showing in my purchased list with an "exclamation point" by them, which I believe indicates the download was incomplete. I restarted iTunes and the songs are no longer on my "Purchased list".
I was still charged after restarting iTunes

ADFS 2.0 service does not automatically start after reboot

Hello,
We have two ADFS 2.0 servers in a farm. Any time these servers reboot, the ADFS service does not automatically start, even though the service is set to auto start. If I manually start the service it starts within 10 seconds.
The error in the logs show:
A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the AD FS 2.0 Windows Service service to connect.
The AD FS 2.0 Windows Service service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
But after the reboot is completed, I can manually start the service with no problems. Again, this ONLY happens on restart. I've searched the forums and found potential solutions for people who have consistent issues with starting ADFS every time.
Any ideas?

UPDATE - I built a 3rd ADFS server and was unable to reproduce the problem, until...
I went in to the service properties of ADFS and saw that even though I specified a Log On As account during the ADFS wizard, it changed itself back to "Network Service". I re-entered our ADFS service account username and password, it was
accepted, and I rebooted. On the next reboot, the service did not start automatically (with the same errors as the other ADFS servers), but I was able to manually start it.
I then went to the original ADFS server having the problem, switched it to use "Network Service", rebooted, and the service started up properly on reboot. I then changed it back to the named domain service account, and the issue came right
back. There are no other errors in the System Log indicating a problem with anything else.
So my guess is that something is happening to prevent the service from starting with the named Domain account on server reboot. But what?

What does the new Nano do at the end of a podcast?

My wife has a 1G Nano that she listens to podcasts on while she runs. It has the annoying behavior of stopping playback when a podcast finishes, instead of going on to the next podcast. Some of her podcasts are only 5 minutes long, so this means she has to fiddle with it every 5 minutes or so to get the next podcast playing.
Can someone with a new Nano please tell me what happens if you have several episodes of a podcast on it and you start playback? Does it still stop after the end of each episode or does it go onto the next one? Does it do the same if it's in shuffle mode?
We tried to work around it by creating a smart playlist containing only podcasts, but I think this model has something wrong with it. Sometimes podcasts don't show up in the playlist, and sometimes podcasts show up in the playlist but not in the Podcast menu, and the syncing gets all messed up.
Thanks!

Help. Why has the end content of my Indesign file disappeared?

Hi. I'm using Indesign 5.5 on a Windows 7 PC.
I'm currently making an epub in Indesign. It is a long flowing document on a single page. I'm separating chapters with Style headings. I've been slowly going through it and adding the image files. I've reached page 66 and the end of my document is missing. I've gone back through earlier versions and in each have seen that there is a little bit more of my text. Very puzzled I tried to copy the missing text onto the end of my current document and it doesn't appear. I'm now wondering if there is a 66 page size limit?
If there is what can I do to complete my epub. Start a new file for the second half of my book and somehow merge them?
Any help appreciated as this unforseen problem is like a kick in the guts.
Thanks.

You need to back up and learn some basics before you get to far into ePub. (Sorry to be blunt)
- Click the red overset symbol to load all the overset text.
- Add one page to the end of the document.
- At that new page, Hold the Shift key while clicking inside the page margin to flow all the overset text, adding new pages as needed. (You should see the laoded curser change appearance when the shift key is held)
