Won't pause, play, stop, or skip when minimized.

Whenever I minimized iTunes, I can't pause, play, stop, or skip.
Is this because of the new iTunes update?

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

Stop 1 movie when playing another

I have a project with 5 flv files in it. I have buttons to
take the user to whichever clip they would like to hear (they are
audio only, with controllers).
The problem is, once you have started any of the clips
playing, if you click to go to another one, the first one continues
to play at the same time. Is there a simple script to tell whatever
may already be playing to stop before the other one begins?
This is my first Flash project,btw-- I don't know anything!
:)

That's exactly right! You and I, we're both instances of the
Human
class. Each of us shares properties, methods, and events
shared by all
humans. If someone (or something) shouted, "Whoa, duck!" it
would be awful
if every human being ducked. That's why the communication
goes one-on-one.

would seem like some

sense?
I'm proposing that you drag only a single FLVPlayback
instance to your
Stage. Give it an instance name -- let's say videoPlayer
(which is a little
more helpfully descriptive than kitty or froggy -- but same
concept). Now
that this one instance has an instance name, you can invoke
FLVPlayback
class members on it.
In frame 1, for example, you could set its contentPath
property to a
video about frogs.
videoPlayer.contentPath = "frogs.flv";
In frame 2, you could set its contentPath property to a
video about
kittens. There's really no need for more than on instance of
FLVPlayback on
the Stage (though there isn't anything illegal about it,
either). I know
you can set properties on FLVPlayback components (and any
component) in the
Parameters tab, but those parameters are nothing more than
properties. The
available properties depend on what class you're dealing
with.
If you really wanted to use more than one FLVPlayback
instance, you
would give each one its own instance name and use the
relevant instance name
as your object reference prefix. Either which way, you'll
find methods like
pause(), play(), stop(), and others that would make sense for
an object like
this one.
For FLVPlayback, you'll actually have to look in the
Components Language
Reference for ActionScript 2.0. If you're using Flash CS3 and
have access
to Actionscript 3.0, you'll find that even the components are
listed in the
ActionScript Language Reference, which is really helpful.

IOS8.1 Music App won't play "Skip When Shuffling" songs at all

iTunes has two options for skipping a song during shuffle: the first column with the tick box (let's call this the "Play Column"), and the "Skip When Shuffling" tick box in the Options tab of the song info.
For songs in iTunes where the Play Column is unticked but Skip When Shuffling box is also unticked, this works as it should when synced to the iPhone: ie the song doesn't come up in shuffle, but it can still be selected & played directly on Music app.
But when the Skip When Shuffling box is ticked (regardless of whether the Play Column is ticked or not), the song can't even be selected & played directly on the Music app. When selected, it just picks another random song from my playlist to start shuffling from.
It's like the Skip When Shuffling option overrides the Play Column (no idea why iTunes should have two different options to do the same thing anyway), but has also now stopped the App from playing the song at all. I've tested this by unticking the Skip When Shuffling box in iTunes & re-syncing to the iPhone, and the Music app now plays the songs when selected directly.
My iPhone 4S using iOS8 always played these songs with no problem, so this is a new issue/bug/feature with either iO8.1 or the app in the iPhone 6 itself.

What kind of Music App are you using?
Maybe some Apps they have bugs when using iOS7.
I'm using MVDIO and zingmp3, it's still okay here.

ITunes pausing, playing, skipping tracks without any input.

About an hour ago, my iTunes began to pause, play and skip tracks without me doing anything at all. I made sure that i wasnt pressing ANY buttons and i even quit the app altogether. This did not help as it just reopened seconds later and began playing music again. How can i stop this from happening?

I just started having this very same problem. iTunes (9.1) will stop and start on its own. Sometimes I am listening to music while in another app, like in a browser or word processor, and it will pause itself every few minutes. It will be fine for a while, then it will pause, I start it again, and it pauses again and again. Other times it will just randomly start playing if was left paused.
The freakiest is when the app starts up by it self. I watched it Start up on its own 3 times in one hour. I think this is why my computer once woke up from sleep mode in the middle of the night.
It is like there is a ghost playing with my computer, or iTunes is possessed. I did several virus scans, and their was nothing. I also Ran Tech tool. Next I will work with Disk Utility, see if that finds anything.
The only thing that occurred about the same time was I started getting more spam in the email account that goes to my mac mail. These may be unrelated, but it is the only noticeable thing that has occurred around the same time.
This feels like some sort of Malware, Zombie computer situation, but I can't find much about Mac Malware evidence out there.

Play/Pause key on Mac keyboard now Play/STOPs iTunes?

The Play/Pause key on my Mac keyboard used to Play/Pause the music. Ever since upgrading to iTunes 9.1, however, the key acts as Play/Stop, so if music is playing and I hit the key, it will STOP the music, and when I hit Play again, it won't continue from where it stopped but it will instead choose a different song in the same playlist to play. How can I fix this to revert to the previous functionality?

Weird, just realized that it only happens when using QuickSilver to select a song. Still, it didn't used to do this.

My 5th Generation IPod Touch keeps pausing, opening Siri, and crashing when I play music?

I won a brand new 64gb 5th gen iPod touch back in November, everything has been great with it until recently. Lately it has been glitching out whenever I try to play music. It seems to be only when the headphone are plugged in that it does it, but it happens daily and has become an inconvenience. It tends to pause, play, open Siri (ask her a question) sometimes speed up the song, and ultimately crash. Does anyone know of this and/or know how to fix it? I've tried a system restore with backing up info but nothing else. Thank you.

Hope your issue was fixed. With iOS 7 and now 7.0.4 the iPod touch fifth generation I have still crashes I have don't a soft restore, a complete restore from back up and also setup as new. Nothing worked. Saw the folks at the apple store on five different times. So they finally gave me a replacement. This has been going on since the new release. The only thing I have found is that it looses internet connectivity so I can put it in airplane mode. Close all apps. Then go back to wifi mode and some times this worked.
Your issues seem slightly different. But the irregularities began for me with issues with my music library on my iPod touch.
It's so frustrating to have such an expensive device functioning so poorly.

HT1725 When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?

i'm just wondering:
a) why it does this
and b) how to stop it doing this, because it still charges me for the song :/

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

HT203167 I've downloaded the Now Christmas album, all but 1 song has been downloaded and put in my library. The list says it's there but when I go to play it, iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song. I have downloaded lastest version of iTunes.

I have purchased and downloaded the Now Christmas album to my iTunes libary and all but 1 song have been purchased. The song appears in my library but when I go to play it iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song. It wouldn't normally bother me but its the only song my son wants to hear all the time (hopefully the heart strings will be pulled here and someone will reply before Christmas to help me!) I've loaded the last verison of iTunes.

Will the media file play with Quicktime Player? If it will then it's an iTunes issue. If it won't then you need to delete the file and download it a second time.

HT1657 Downloaded 2 rentals and they won't play. They ask if I would like to begin the rental period, I say yes and it takes me to the dvd screen, but does not play. I hit play, fast forward, skip chapters and nothing.

Audio on the timeline, especially stream, tends to play very reliably. Is this project under any NDA or can you provide a FLA to examine? Let me know if you want to private message it and I'll shoot you a message.
What version of Flash Player are you targeting and is this AS2 or AS3?

'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone is selected for output. Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure. Ideas????

'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone (3G) is selected for output. Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure. Ideas????

Thank you for the replies.
Appearane of 'Music' functions (I>> > II <<I, plus volume slider) on the lock/log in screen (when first turning on the iPhone) thus far seems without pattern, i.e. regardless of which if any applications are up in the background, and indeed even when all have been quit.
All visual aspects of 'Music' appear normal after launch including the title scroll across the top in vertical mode. However, while pressing play (>) converts the play (>) icon to pause (II), selected song does not play and the elapsed time bar (upper end between the track count and the repeat/shuffle icons) remains stationary at 0:00 or at any point to which it is dragged. When using home sharing this same problem persists regardless of what output is selected.
Hope that may prompt a thought somewhere.

7.5.2 Update causing skipping when playing via AirPlay

Since the iOS 4 iPad update, I have been streaming music from my iPad to my AirPort Express from Pandora. There have been no issues with this until I performed the 7.5.2 update to my AX. Now, I am experiencing pretty consistent pauses/skips when trying to listen to music.
I checked my AirPort Express logs, and the only items I'm seeing that seem to be happening pretty frequently seem to be:
- Dec 18 18:51:43 Severity:5 Rotated TKIP group key.
- Dec 18 18:44:31 Severity:4 AirTunes stream from 10.0.100.11 stopped.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Interesting. I just set up a test and things to working ok for me (no skipping). Here is the test:
AirPort Express 7.5.2
iPad 4.2.1
Pandora (latest and greatest off iTunes)
My iPad sits about 7 feet from my AirPort Express. I am stream Pandora music through it (with the "Higher Quality Audio" option enable). My Express is set up for WPA2 PSK, Auto Channel and 802.11N (with b.g compatibility). I am also using Bridge mode since I am behind a NAT firewall already.
I know one difference between our setups right off the bat is you are using NAT (well at least I am assuming you are). Can you see any other differences in our configs? I would like to try an reproduce the problem, gather a wireless sniffer and send it to Apple via ADC.

Why does play stop when I close the Podcasts app - IOS 6

Whenever I leave the Podcasts app to answer an email, text, open Safari, etc., the podcast stops playing. This effectively stops me from using any other application on my phone, unless I want to also stop listening to the podcast. It won't continue playing in the background like the Music app did. Of course, this is an IOS 6 issue.
Ridiculous!!!
Am I missing something here?

I had the same problem the first night and my head almost exploded as playing podcasts is what my iphone is doing 95% of the time. I was also experiencing a lack of control not being able to jump back or ahead which was maddening. However, the next morning, after syncing the phone with my iTunes (on a MacBook Pro) all of this functionality was there, including the ability to have the podcasts continue when exiting the app and the ability to control them with an inline remote on my earbuds.
Hopefully, this problem has already resolved itself for you. Unfortunately, it is my understanding that there still is no option for playlists at this time.

Embedded media player controls (play, stop, pause, etc.) on multiple sites will not respond in FireFox 12.0 or will only respond after multiple clicks

I go to multiple websites that contain embedded media, such as billburr.com, tunein.com, and forums where members embed media from sites like YouTube. When attempting to access or use that media, using the available play, stop, pause, and volume control buttons, FireFox doesn't respond. For example, If I'm on billburr.com and attempt to play the podcast, I can click the play button over and over again and nothing will happen. The play button lights up like the site realizes I'm clicking it, but the media will not play, at least not the first time. I might get it to work after several fast clicks. However, if I need to pause it, I have the same trouble. These sites work perfectly in IE 9. I've already started FireFox in safe mode, but encountered the same problem. Has anyone seen this?

That is a Flash player on the billburr<i></i>.com site.
You can try to install the 32 bit Flash player for Firefox from this page.
*http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

Won't pause, play, stop, or skip when minimized.
