iTunes plays one song.

The play-1-song bug.   MacFixit was one of the first sites to report this bug.   In iTunes, with either a smart playlist or a regular playlist, with the "randomizer" selected, iTunes plays one song.   If I decide to skip the current song, I get nothing.

Nice debugging, Apple.  down

Re: iTunes plays one song.

Never had it happen.

More information please.

Re: iTunes plays one song.

OS 10.4.11 with all security updates, iTunes 8, QT 7.5.5

Most of the time, I start with some song.  If I decide to skip ahead to the next song, iTunes stops in its tracks.

Re: iTunes plays one song.

Sounds kind of like the behavior when no songs are checked.  If you make no tracks selected in a playlist and hit play, does nothing play?  What happens if you "recheck" all songs by holding command and clicking one of the checkboxes twice?

Re: iTunes plays one song.

It also sounds like something I ran into once.  It would play one, then quit playing.  I could get it to play any one song I wanted, but it would shut up after that one finished.

Turns out I'd inadvertantly set the "Don't play when shuffling" feature to on for all the songs in the playlist, and I was trying to shuffle.

That was pretty easy to fix in the end.


I dont say that there is no God.  I'm not an atheist because I find atheism to be a mirror of the certainty of religion and I don't like certainty about the next world because we can't know. What I say, what I say is "I don't know."
