Why can't I get a playlist on ITunes on Ipad to stop after each song? I can do it on ITunes on my PC.

On the PC, when you un check the selections and transfer them to an IPod they will not play until you choose them. On the IPad2 they continually play. We are trying to use this for church, and it will be a waste of money if it doesn't work as we need it to. So we need to create a list of songs for the service, and only play them when we want them to play....not continuously.

Hi Ziatron,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand wanting to see the slider bars for web pages and/or applications. You can enable this feature in the System Preferences. Please review the attached discussion for information on how to complete this process.

Playlist stops after each song or podcast

I have podcasts on a playlist, and for some reason, sometimes it only plays one song or podcast, then doesn't go to the next one. I have to go back and click on the next one to play it.

Are there check marks beside all the items in the playlist? Unchecked items have to be clicked on individually to play them, checked items will play one after the other. If you hold down the CRTL key and click beside any song in your list then all the check boxes can be toggled on or off: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows

Video Playlists, which setting to check to make it not stop after each song

Ipod classic 120 gig that I got my Dad for Christmas. I have the video playlist all set up. I want him to be able to click the ">" button and it go to another song. Right now it just stops and returns to the main list of songs.
Example of what I want: He is playing a music video and decides he wants to move on to the next song. He pushes the ">" button and the next music video starts playing.

Oddly enough, this has to do with the SHUFFLE setting.
Go to Settings > Shuffle > Set it to Off
If the Shuffle is on at all, Video Playlists don't really work. This has been a problem since the release of the iPod Classic and Apple really hasn't made any moves or promises to fix it ...

Why does iTunes Stop after each song?

I have notice that it's only on songs that is lighter (not the Bold songs). I do have iTunes Match and iCloud, does that have anything to do with it?

Time to learn the "Up Next" feature.
If your music is paused, use right-click (ctrl-click) on a song to "Play Next" (puts on the top of the queue) or "Add to Up Next" (add to the end of the queue).
Go to the "Up Next" Menu in the View Menu (or click the icon in the control bar that looks like three horizontal bars).
Select your song.
In some conditions, the rest of the your playlist will show up below your addition. When you scroll down the Up Next list you may see "Back To: " at the end of the list. Press CLEAR to be sure your selection(s) are the only songs played.

How can I get a playlist created on my iPad to iTunes?

I create a playlist on the iPad... I love it... I want it on the iPhones in my household.
How can I get that playlist into iTunes, so I can push it out to the other iOS devices?
When I sync the iPad with iTunes, the playlist created on the iPad is wiped out.
All devices (iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPad 2) are on iOS 5.0.1.
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2
iTunes 10.5.1.
Thanks

You can't move an iMovie project file and expect it to play.
You need to export from the machine that holds the source files to the format supported by the device.

Does anyone know how to get a playlist from itunes onto my shuffle?

Why do i always get "cannot connect to itunes" message whenever i download after putting my password? plus i cannot update my apps? please help me thanks :)

why do i always get "cannot connect to itunes" whenever i update my apps or buy anything from the store while my ipod can download? it has thesame email user

I use only one Apple ID and only one ID. I did have to change the password at one point but I had no issues at all with updating apps after I changed the password.
If you can download new apps with the ID that you changed the password for, I would think that you will be able to update apps associated with that ID as well.
Did you try restarting the iPad after signing out of the one account and then sign in to the other account/accounts?

Why do I keep getting the message that iTunes is quitting working? I have reinstalled iTunes and I have checked the WiFi twice. I have even put the internet cable directly into the laptop and still I cannot connect to the iTunes. Offers no solutions.

Why do I keep getting the message that iTunes is quitting working? I have reinstalled iTunes and I have checked the wifi twice. I have even put the internet access cable directly into the laptop. The message says that windows will look for a solution but never offers any solution.

Try disconnect your internet, then launch iTunes.
Connect your device, then reconnect your internet.
See if this resolves the issue.

Why do I keep getting emails saying my iTunes account will be disable in 48 hours if I do not validate my account? or that I have to verify the email associated with my iTune acccount?

Because someone's trying to mislead you into giving them your iTunes Store login information. Forward all such emails to [email protected] and then delete them.
If there's an actual problem with your iTunes Store account, you'll be told at the time you try to purchase or download something.

Ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist?

I have a problem: Suddenly, my ipod stops after each track ends in a playlist. This happens with every playlist and every track, all of which worked fine until this week. All tracks' settings are "yes" on 1) part of a compilation; 2) remember playback position and; 3) skip when shuffling. I have not updated any software or added any new content to my ipod. I imagine that some setting has been switched on or off, but I am unable to identify which one. Please help as these are my audio books! Thanks!

I have an iPod Classic (I am fairly new to the medium) and when playing music the Pod goes smoothly from one song to the next but, when listening to a book (brought in from a CD copied into iTunes) it plays one track and stops.
See below for a link on how to copy a CD into iTunes if you want an Audibook.
I have tried checking the gap less album box (what is that for by the way) but it makes no difference.
If you've heard of Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd then it's used there when you want no break between tracks. Or any DJ mixed continuos play CD. Or some classical music. Take your pick
Third question, can I make a book copied into iTunes an Audiobook? How?

Thank you!
No problem, hang around and read a few posts, there's always plenty to learn in here.

Movie playlist stop after each movie

Hi all
I thought I'd use our iPad as in-car entertainment for our daughter (2y 7m) but found that the iPod app does some rather unexpected things. After playing an episode - I'm using to play TV episodes - it stops and shows a page with thumbnail of movie.
Only button is for Movies page, but going there is not what i want and then there are no buttons on that page either,
How do I get a playlist of movies to playz with stopping at end of each.
Cheers
C

One way is to assign a track number to each related video via iTunes and then resync the iPad to the computer.

Is there a way I can watch videos/tv shows continuously without it stopping after each episode?

Get current playlist in iTunes

I'm pretty sure this worked at one time, but I don't know what was changed.
I need to get the name of the currently selected playlist.The following command doesn't work on 2 different computers (10.4 & 10.3).
tell application "iTunes" to get current playlist
Looking at the dictionary from both machines, this should work. I'm totally confused, hopfully I'm just missing something stupid.
Oh ya, the "current track" property has the same problem.
Both properties only return "unknown object" error
iBookG4/eMac/iMacx2/G3300/G4400 Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Current track & playlist only return info about what's playing. If nothing is playing, you'll get an error. What you want is the visible selection, which is obtained thusly:
click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">tell application "iTunes" to get view of front browser window</pre>You can also get the playlist from a visible track selection:
click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">tell application "iTunes"
set selected_tracks to selection
set selected_playlist to container of first item of selected_tracks
end tell</pre>

Playlist of podcasts stopping after each podcast

I manage which podcasts, and the order, I want to listen to using a playlist and until recently this worked as I wanted, i.e. when one podcast had finished playing my iPod started playing the next podcast in the playlist. Now it seems to be stopping playback after each podcast, this is very annoying.
Anyone know how I can get the iPod to not stop playback after each podcast?

No, for some reason it's not included as one of the features of the Podcast App.
If you need playlists (as many of us do), then delete the Podcast App and podcasts will return to the music app, complete with podcast playlist functionality.

How do I get iTunes U to play all files, right now it stops after each audio file and I will have to manually select the next one.

I am unable to find a way to get iTunes U to play all audio files one after the other without me manually playing each one of them.

Best I've managed is to create a smart playlist in iTunes with the album set to the title of the course. Have the smart playlist update automatically so that any new postings from the course are included within the playlist. After that you should be able to play the playlist and have all the audio files play one after the other. Hope it helps!

Why can't I get a playlist on ITunes on Ipad to stop after each song? I can do it on ITunes on my PC.
