Thanks for all the great responses. I was mostly wanting to listen to one track at a time, because I was editing a song for a ringtone, and hearing the next song right away was distracting. :)
Thanks for the instruction on getting rid of the tracks for ringtones.

That means that if you start playing a track in the middle of the songs table, iTunes will go on to play the next item in the list. That also means that if the list is sorted so that the track you are playing is at the end, iTunes will stop playing when you reach it. One way to stop after one track if you have selected an album is to go to the search text field by pressing Command+Option+F, and type in a term to filter the list in the songs table so that only the song you want matches it. Alternatively, since the song you are currently playing will not stop just because you type something in the search text field, once you start it playing, navigate to the search text field with Command+Option+F and type in something like "xxxxxx" or some key sequence that won't match any track in your song table, and iTunes will stop playing when your current song is done, since there will be no "next track" entries in your songs table -- it will be completely blank. You can still get back to displaying your currently playing track in the songs table with Command+L, but all the other tracks will show up again, too. HTH.

Then you can edit the ring tone name to read however you wanted to read. HTH, Donna Sent from my iPhone On Nov 1, 2011, at 12:26 PM, Traci <[email protected]> wrote: Hi all, 2 iTunes questions. 1. Is there a way where I can play a single track, and not have iTunes automatically begin playing the following track? 2. How can I have no track numbers? For example with my ringtones, I don't need 01. then the title. I'd like to have just the title.
