iPod Touch help - stop Auto-Play on playlist

Is there a way to stop the Auto-Play of songs on a playlist on an iPod touch?


I can do this on iTunes by deselecting all of the songs on the playlist. Once the songs are all unchecked, when one song is finished it stops playing.


However when I sync this playlist to the iPod, the checkboxes are all still selected, and when a song is played on the iPod, when it is finished, it continues automatically to the next song on the playlist.

You don't need to do that.


in iTunes, when a Playlist (or any list that is playing) is in progress, look to the right of the Now Playing pane;

  1. tap on the menu icon
  2. make sure Up Next is selected
  3. click on Clear at the bottom of the Up Next list. The player will stop at the end of the current song.

Saves all that un-ticking stuff.


If the Up Next list is longer than the window, there will be a scroll bar on the right hand side of the list. Simply use that to scroll down to the end of the list.
