When paused, will this hold the CD's place indefinitely? I listen to a lot of books on CD and can't buy a boombox that defaults back to the beginning

It will go back to the beginning on power cycling or by opening the compartment while in pause.

I put an audio book on pause and then forgot and ran into town, was gone about 3 hours came home and it was fine, started at the same point.

The stop button is with the power button below play/pause button. If the cd remains in the player it will resume where you left off. Otherwise it'll start at the beginning. Hope this helps.

Mine just quite playing. Stops in the middle of a song so it is not the CD switch. Very disappointed. Tried different CD's with the same result.

Mine doesn't skip, but I usually sit to listen to lesson cd's or use the device right before bedtime. If I need to get up and move around, I haven't had any concerns. It plays without interruption.

the item will rest after 10s,then you should push the play/pause and it is ok

Typically on boom boxes, you turn it off by switching it to the "tape" function. That is it's off position. Well, I see this is 14 months after the question was asked, LOL but hopefully it will help answer the question for someone else. ;)

No. - If you pause a podcast, and then listen to that exact same podcast again, it will remember your place.- But, if you pause a podcast, and then go listen to another podcast, when you return to the first podcast, it will start you back at the beginning.And yes, it's amazingly hard to believe that Sony has not included this most basic of functionality, but it has not. Steer clear of this device if you want to use it to listen to podcasts and audiobooks.

I would think so. I listen to music on mine, but it always begins where it left off. And you would probably want to make sure you do not hit the shuffle button.

You need headphones. And, unfortunately, this CD player does not have the "Resume" feature.

I think it depends on the CD player, in my case Exomunt only touches the edge of the CD player and actually everything works normally (of course, must be previously inserted the CD and you must remove the mount each time you want to change the CD)

Yes from a CD or Thumb Drive. When turned off, though, it does not keep track of where it was stopped with either CD or Thumb Drive. So, if you are listening to books, as I do, you will need to jot down where you left off. It will allow you to jump ahead or back either one or ten tracks at a time, so if you know which track you want, you can get there fairly quickly. Another thing that I don't like is that the volume is not loud enough to be heard very well when driving on the freeway.

What do you mean? I don't think I have ever seen a CD player with a memory, particularly if you take the CD out of the player, it's certainly going to clear the RAM. But the RAM is designed to provide a buffer. It's only reading 4 or 10 seconds ahead. It's not a drive which is reading the entire player and putting the whole thing in memory and playing it from there (which some drives in computers do, or my high end CD player, the Rega Saturn, does). So while I'm not going to say with 100% certainty, what I know about CD player of this kind, I'm going to say 'no.' Not unless, of course, you're merely putting the thing on pause, but then you'd be wasting the battery and motor if you did that for too long.

My experience is that it does NOT have a restart feature. Press stop and the laser returns to the CD's starting point. You can PAUSE and PLAY but not restart.

Sounds like you may have a defective unit. I listen to books on CD and there's no repetition. When "pause" is used, it starts up where I left off.

Yes it does. Every time you stop playing the cd, the CD Walkman will remember where you stopped palying and resume it after that point. I hope that this answers your questionm my dear friend.

Yes you can. I've never done it but I know many who have. A couple of the previous generations didn't remember where you paused your audiobook, which was a nuisance, but apparently the 7th Gen Nano has fixed that :)

The only way you could do that would be this: When you're through listening to your audiobook for the moment, simply turn the player off. When you turn it back on, it will be at the exact same place you left off at. Other than that, no, you cannot pause the audiobook, play a couple of songs, then go back to the audiobook and resume where you left off at. Sorry :( Hope that helps...
