Bookmarking audio and video files in iTunes 5 and later

Starting with iTunes 5, you can enable a bookmarking feature that lets you bookmark any audio or video file in your iTunes library. This allows you to pick up from where you left off the last time you listened to or viewed the file. To enable an audio or video file's bookmarking function, do this:

1. Select a desired file in iTunes.
2. From the File menu, choose Get Info.
3. Click Options.
4. Select the "Remember playback position" checkbox.
5. Click OK.

If you have any iPod that has a Click Wheel that's been updated with iPod Updater 2005-06-26 or later, you can sync bookmarked files back and forth between your iPod and iTunes. For example, if you listen to a file on your iPod, stop playback, sync your iPod with iTunes, and then play that same file in iTunes, iTunes will start playback from the point you last heard on your iPod.
