Activation of Siri sometimes pauses for iTunes playlist

Hello

It is an intermittent problem, but if I'm playing music from iTunes (via Airplay, I have not tested this issue with local playback) and I activate Siri, iTunes is paused the music, and then when I'm done with Siri, the music begins to play again.

I thought this might be by design, but it doesn't always happen.

Someone else?

I've not being updated to Mac OS Sierra still, but I guess this is normal. Same thing happens on the iPhone. You will not be able to hear the responses of Siri with music in the background, and if you play aloud, Siri could start listening to music playing the Mac rather than your voice.

As to why he's inconsistent, not sure. Maybe the Mac of Siri version knows how hard the music is and if she stop to function properly until he listens to or take a break?

  • Support for iTunes playlists?

    I missed on the support of playlists on the media center.  I see the ability to add songs to a playlist that is generic, but I don't seem to see any support for playlists even static or dynamic based on different metadata of the file.  Ideally, I would like to just take advantage of my iTunes playlists, but I see no ability to do.  Is there a way to have more sophisticated playlists, or this will be added in the future?  Without a strong playlist function it makes it a bit difficult to actually listen to the music of this and when you use iTunes instead of the media browser server function, you can always not native iTunes playlists (could be a limitation of iTunes server room, but I was hoping this would be a way to do it).

    I can't really talk about future features, etc. in a public forum, but it's certainly something we hope to come out sometime this year

    It will not be integrated with iTunes. Probably will be linked in our media browser.

  • How to get iTunes playlist active?

    My playlist of the album might look like this:

    There's a #1 song, which is in bold. Songs #2-16 are in bright characters.

    When I play songs on my iPod, song #1 plays very well, but do not appear songs #2-16, even after synchronization.

    I don't know that this is related to something, I have while setting up this years ago iTunes playlist, but I forgot what it was. Someone knows how to do #2-16 "BOLD" songs, so I can play on my iPod?

    Thank you!

    I fixed it. In the unlikely case where you are going to use the function, I'll elaborate.

  • Customize iTunes Playlist Background Color

    Is there a way to customize the background color of my playlists in iTunes?  I love that Apple is coloring depending on the first song in the playlist, but I wish I could choose what color I would.  It seems that the playlists tend to have many of the same color and they are not very attractive, sometimes.

    Hi CoachCasa,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple! I'm sorry to hear that you're having these problems with iTunes. While it is not a way to define a background color for your playlists, you can disable the feature that picks up the color of the first song; It is located in iTunes > Preferences > Generalin the views: section, listed as "use... custom colors. ». Once you have unchecked that option, select another reading list and then go back to the other playlist to see the changes. Hope this helps!

    See you soon

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes game against external hard drive, Solid State etc. to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    First question: what are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes Match against Solid State external hard drive etc to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    Please let me know what are the alternatives for storage of my songs, playlists, song etc. other than iTunes game ratings ($ 24.99 / year)?  Is there a way to store all my songs with my song ratings, playlists, etc. with a CD song quality? Most of my (currently 130 GB) songs on my computer are CD quality that I prefer to keep as well as my notes of each song (i.e. 5 * vs. 4 * etc.), playlists, groups (music, classical, popular, country etc.).  What are the advantages and disadvantages to store my iTunes songs while CD quality with my personal notes, reading lists, groupings in the cloud?  ICloud of Apple Drive ($ 2.99 per month or $36 / year for 200 GB) would be the best way to automatically update and maintain my rankings iTunes personal including the future editions of the song etc or using Amazon, IBM, Microsoft etc cloud or an external hard drive SSD would work as well and maybe cheaper?  I currently have my iTunes on a PC of 2007 with vista (I use a 1 8T Western Digital external upward by car for my personal info all over HP, songs, photos etc. which is currently close to 170 GB) but also have an Apple i-phone 6 & I Air cushion.  Although I did not need to have all of my music with all their sides, etc. available on all of my devices at all times as iTunes game, I still would have easy access to information on both my PC and my iPhone or iPad?  Thank you.

    In my opinion?

    I back up my data to an external drive for several reasons.  The first is my data - if I put on the cloud, someone else has control over it, they can see what I have and change the preferences to what they see of marketing.

    Almost as important as that - if I had to rely on the cloud whenever I wanted to update my playlists on my phone, I need a better internet connection I have now (working at sea).  To get the best out of the cloud, you need a solid link to home, work or mobile.

    As a spin-off - I hate the fact that Apple take away a feature in their software updates and then allow an app to be sold in their store to replace this feature - or worse still, some features that were available before the updates are now "cloud only."  And Yes - you have to pay for the cloud.  I like most of the people do not appreciate the 'accomplished fact. "

    From the back of the external hard drive ASI downside, is that to be safe, you need to store outside in a separate computer place.  If keep you them together, if one is lost, probably, they are both.  That is to say for me a full backup before you travel, then a new upward as soon as I go home.  Downside is how much data may be lost between the two back ups if I needed to restore.  For me, its worth the risk.  If I was away and say had bought a ton of new music and couldn't go home anytime soon, I can always head to the store and buy a new external drive, they are massively expensive.  Even if my computer has to go for repair and my remote is to halfway around the world - I want to buy a new one.

    Now, some will say that once you buy a new external, you spend more than you would on a cloud subscription.  It's true, but in the 6 years following the purchase of Mac that I've only had to buy a new external once - so with a little luck and planning - it works.

    I left took well - I am not a subscriber of cloud, nor do I want to be.

  • How to play a song by an iTunes Playlist to another

    How can I move a song from one iTunes Playlist to another (or I can't?)? Currently, I copy the song from Playlist A to B Playlist , and then delete a Playlist. I want to do a one-step process. What I do now is an extra step (i.e. two times more!) and has the potential for error in matches not songs copied and deleted. It is possible to do in a file system; It is not possible in iTunes playlists?

    I don't think that it is possible. You can see if there's a script that does for you.  It seems that you are using iTunes for Windows (another forum) so I recommend that you check

  • Activation of Siri, when unlocking with the "home" button

    Is it possible to disable activation screen lock or using Siri "sleep"?

    I have unlock my iPhone 6 and iPad Pro Plus using the home button then wait for id at the end touch. Since iOS9, the time-out for the activation of Siri seems shorter path. About 50% of the time I find myself activation Siri (even if support super fast). It got to a point that it is driving me crazy and it is ruining the experience. iOS8 was beautiful, never once accidentally got Siri.

    Apple needs to fix this ASAP. Using the locking/release button on the larger aircraft is annoying and not the easiest to get when holding the iPad Pro.

    You don't need to press Home to use Touch ID.

    Simply place your finger on the Home button to unlock.

    To answer your question, Yes, you can turn it off here:

  • How long for iTunes

    How long normally does for iTunes to pick up new episodes from their published? Podbean using for my hosting. Downloaded my 2nd episode this morning, but iTunes is not picking it up. IM assuming that them takes some time, but what is normal?

    When you add a new episode to your stream and download it, it immediately appears for subscribers because their iTunes application reads the stream directly and the store is not involved.

    However, due to the multiplicity of the podcasts in the store (in thousands) the store caches the flow and it checks updates periodically. For this reason, there are usually 1-2 days for new episodes to appear in the store: sometimes it can be lower, and sometimes the whole process seems stuck and it may take several days.

    You should check your supply you signing up, either from the page of the shop, or manually in the menu "Advanced" in iTunes, check that your new episodes are there. If this isn't the case, then you have a mistake any (for example, a duplicate tag "guid"). If all of your episodes appear when you subscribe the store must catch up after a bit.

    When you have a query, it is recommended to display the URL of your Store and your feed iTunes page, otherwise I can give you only a very general answer. It may be that there is a problem with your workflow even if as I say a few days late is quite normal.
