    WMP doesn't go back to a song in shuffle mode


    Does anybody know why the Microsoft cesspool changed the behavior of the app, and why should I continue to allow the arbitrary changes that are usually for the WORSE???


    Is there a way to recover the behavior that when a track is played and you hit the Previous key the track replays?

    :)

  2. Some WMP songs will not return to itunes library

    When I try to access specific songs in itunes it says "file location not found" yet I can call the song up on wmp and listen to it.
    Sometimes when I list the album in itunes the song is missing and other times it is grayed out. I am trying to put music to a video but I can only do it through itunes. Does anyone have any suggestions. I have spent too much time watching facebook videos on how to sync these two programs

    Music player disables shuffle by itself

    I always use the onboard Music player and I always have the Shuffle feature ON.



    Before the Anna update, I could press "Back" pick a song in the list and continue listening in shuffle mode.



    After Anna update, every time I press back and pick a song shuffle gets disabled. I really don't like that and the fact that it does something I didn't ask it to do. I just picked a song, I didn't pick "disable shuffle as well".



    Why is it doing this, its' really annoying.

    WMP doesn't go back to a song in shuffle mode

    Why does WMP skip songs during sync?

    I make frequent changes to my WMP playlists and sync my phone to match. There are about eight thousand tracks and set the phone to automatically sync when connected, which is about once a week. About a fourth of the songs on the sync list, however, are skipped.
    Not sure what I can do about it.

    There doesn't seem to be a connection to how songs are chosen to be skipped. An album with ten songs may have three skipped. The skipped songs play in WMP just fine. Nothing wrong with the files themselves. At the end of the sync list, there is a list of
    songs that have problems, usually the file name was changed or the file was moved to a different folder. That list is helpful in fixing problems. But why are other seemingly random songs just skipped during sync?
