Airplay cuts out after one song

I am having a problem with airplay cutting out after each song when using Itunes. I tunes continues to play but tracks but is not transmitting via airplay.
configuration is as follows:
Airport time capsule is connected via wireless to airport express, airport express is connected to wireless internet router via cat 6 RJ45, Apple TV connected via wireless to airport express.
It is not physically possible to connect all devices together with cable.
Time capsule is set to extend network via wireless connection to airport express and both are configured for 5GHz.
I can connect my MAC Book Pro mid 2012 to either the Time capsule or airport express.
Aiport express is connected to a Sound sytem and apple TV is also connected to separate Sound System.
When playing tracks through ITunes and selecting both or either airport express or apple TV airplay cuts out. If I connect directly to my old internet router it also cuts out, indicating there is a possible problem with the WI-FI connection but each device has a perfect connection due to their proximity. If I connect my MAC Book Pro directly to the airport express in the same room and within 4 ft of each other airplay cuts out after one track so that does not indicate a signal error.
This problem has only started recently and did not happen on my windows PC and if I play directly from my IPad or Iphone the music streams perfectly but I can only stream to one device at a time.
Current configs:
Airport express Version 7.6.4
Time Capsule version 7.7.1
Itunes version 11.1.3 (8)
MAC Book Pro OS 10.8.5 mid 2012
Apple TV (latest update)
Obvious things I have done:
Checked for updates
Rebooted every device several times
Tried moving every device closer together (made no difference)
Re-rooted all light aircraft and switched off every thing that could possibly that transmits device in the house
Does anybody have a solution to this problem.

I have this same problem. 
I am using an Alienware Aurora desktop PC running Windows 8.1.  My music library is stored on  Synology Diskstation 1513+ NAS.  The PC, Playmaker and NAS are all wired into a Netgraer D6300 router. 
I have no problem playing iTunes through my PC speakers or headphones but when I use Airplay to play either through my Apple TV OR my Bang and Olufsen Playmaker (through to B&O speakers) the music stops after one track even though iTunes is still playing the next track in the playlist.  If I stop and restart, or if I choose another track it plays through to the end and the problem starts again.  If I play wirelessly from my iPhone through the Playmaker and the B&O speakers I have no problem.  So it seems to be fairly and squarely an Airplay issue?
This was intermittently happening but is now happening all the time.  GRRRRRR!

  • Music cuts out after 1 song

    Hi
    I am currently having a problem with music playback on iPhone 3g where it will play one song and then quit back to the main page where the apps are held.
    I have tried resetting the phone but it is still not working!!
    Any ideas on how to sort this out??

    i have no idea what can be the problem. i've seen other posters with this, but i can't remember what they did to solve their problem.
    first off, can you check to see if you have shuffle or repeat on? that may be part of the issue. to see, start playing a song, and then tap on the album art. the scrubber bar should appear, along with the repeat and shuffle options. if the icons are white, it means they are off, but if they are blue, that means that they are on.
    the only other thing i can think of being the problem is your audio files. what is their format? are you playing mp3, aac, etc?
    if that's not the problem, i'd take it back to the apple store.

    Delete the problem song(s) from library including file(s). Then go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Select Music tab to re-download again for free.

  • HT204406 some of the songs i have downloaded from iclouds cut out after about 50 seconds? Has anyone else had this problem?

    Some of the songs I have downloaded from iclouds cut out after about 50 seconds when i play them? Has anyone else had this problem and if so did you manage to fix it.
    Thanks

    I've had this happen several times... I suspect the download was interrupted for some unreported reason so it only has a partial file or has a corrupt byte in the file it failed to catch.
    Just delete the local copy and re-download from the cloud and they play fine.

  • I bought a song on itunes but it cuts out after 14 seconds on my laptop but on my ipod it plays in full, how can I rectify the tune on my pc, thankyou

    I bought a song on itunes but it cuts out after 14 seconds on my laptop but on my ipod it plays in full, how can I rectify the tune on my pc so that I can play it in the house and put it on a cd for the car. I went into the itunes store to play the tune and it cuts out there too. thankyou

    Hello there, La Clairiere Feerique.
    I understand you are having issues with playback of a purchased song. If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, it might be best to delete the song from your computer, then re-download from your purchase history.
    To delete a song the following Knowledge Base article offers how to delete from your iOS device:
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5772
    Music
    Open the section below for the device you are using.
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Mac or PC
    Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
    Launch iTunes.
    From the Library pop-up menu, choose Music.
    Click Songs in the navigation bar.
    Click the song you want to delete.
    Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    In iTunes 11, the album cover art will remain visible, but a cloud icon will appear on it to allow you to download the item again (in countries that support this).
    Note: If you didn't purchase a song from the iTunes Store, you won't be able to download it again for free from iTunes in the Cloud. You might want to back it up somewhere on your computer.
    Afterwards, re-download the purchases from your purchase history:

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • I downloaded an album recently, but I guess my internet was going in and out the whole time, and now 5 of the 14 songs will cut out after a few seconds.  How can I re-download those few songs?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • I have downloaded a CD from iTunes onto my matchbook pro but the first three songs cut out after a few seconds? Help!

    I have downloaded a CD from iTunes onto my Macbook pro but the first three songs cut out after a few seconds? Help!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Sample song cuts out after 42 seconds

    I am trying to play the sample of songs and they are cutting out after 42 seconds instead of 90 seconds. Any suggestions?

    1. Use these DNS: Google and Verizon DNS
    Primary DNS = 8.8.8.8 Secondary DNS = 4.2.2.1
    2. Then apply these instructions:
    Windows XP
    On the Start menu, click Run.
    In the Open field type cmd and click OK.
    In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return(Enter) on the keyboard.
    You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7
    On the Start menu, point to All Programs > Accessories and then right-click Command Prompt and choose Run as Administrator from the shortcut menu. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click Continue.
    In the resulting window, type ipconfig /flushdns and press Return(Enter) on the keyboard.
    You should see a message that the DNS Resolver Cache has been successfully flushed.
    Your problem should be 100% solved

  • Sound cutting out after 2.1 update

    Hi!
    I installed the newest firmware upgrage, 2.1, the one with the "genius" playlist.
    After this install however, i've had problems with songs cutting out after a few seconds. The song continues to play, but with no sound. Also, this often occurs if i turn the screen off, within a few seconds of selecting a new song to play.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    Has nothing to do with that. Like the previous remark says, it's totally random. One song doesn't work so if you select another song it may play, or not, or just for a few moments. Go back to the song you originally chose and it may play, or not. Same with videos. I just bought a new dock and thought there was something wrong with that but, nope, it's the iPod. It chokes me that something that costs so much is so easily broken. I've only had it for 6 weeks and who knows how long it will take them to fix this issue.
    If you are having the same problem, PLEASE report it so that we can get this fixed asap!
    Thanks!!

  • When watching movies over Wi-Fi on my AppleTV, it cuts out after a few minutes

    Whenever I watch a movie from my AppleTV, either via the "Movies" or "Computer" options, it keeps cutting out after a few minutes.
    However, if I play something on my iPad and send it to my AppleTV via AirPlay, the movie plays without any problems.
    What could be the problem?

    That would indicate an issue with the network.
    The Movies icon is streaming from icloud. I would verify your current connection using speedtest.net. Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settings - general - network)
    The Computers icon is utilizing home-sharing to access your local content off your computer.
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.
    Try connecting via ethernet.

  • The audio on my macbook pro cuts out after a few minutes.

    The audio on my macbook pro cuts out after a few minutes. It sounds like all the low end is removed. I still hear audio but it is MUCH lower and sounds filtered. I can barely hear it maxed out. Nothing attached (no external drives, no speakers, etc) and it's only a few days old.

    Apple store pronto.  If need be (if less than 14 days from purchase) exchange for a new one!
    Ciao.

  • Itunes samples are cutting out after a few seconds

    When I sample a song recently, it cuts out after 10-15 seconds instead of the usual 1:30.
    Did I adjust my settings somehow or is this a systems issue?
    I have tried re-loading Itunes into the latest version, but the problem continues.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    thanks Rob but can you provide more info? Do you know where I can find this folder on Windows 7? I checked with the local Helpdesk in my company but they would like more info
    Also, is there any help page that gives details such as this?
    thanks again

  • FaceTime audio keeps cutting out after a few minutes

    Every time I try to use FaceTime on my iPhone 4, the audio cuts out after 5-10 minutes or so.
    Even after hanging up and calling back, there is still no audio. The picture is fine, but I can't hear anything the other party is saying. They apparently can hear me fine, so it appears to be something with the speaker. However, the speaker works fine in every other app.
    I also tried using Skype, and it worked with no audio problems. So the issue is definitely isolated to FaceTime.
    I do not have this problem with my iPad. It works fine. I tried showing this to a genius at the Apple store, but they can't do anything because the phone is no longer under warranty.
    I tried wiping the phone clean, and setting it up as a brand new phone, and still have the same problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello 
    To get a better handle on the problem, connect at least one computer to the router using an Ethernet cable. This can help isolate the problem further.
    You can pretty much connect as many devices to the wireless side as you wish. The only problem you might encounter if you connect a large number of machines on the wireless side is lack of bandwidth. I can't imagine 5-6 machines on a wireless network would be a problem, unless one or two of them attempts a large file transfer. Even then, I would expect the wireless to be slow - not down.
    What version of firmware is in your WRT160N? How long have you had your router, and has it worked properly in the past?

  • Apple TV stops after one song

    Hi All,
    I recently bought my Apple TV (3rd gen) and have the most recent update (5.2). I also have the most up to date iTunes (11.0.1). The thing is that when I want to enter the library on my laptop (windows 7) Apple TV freezes after one song. It loads the next song but then stops. I still can go back in the menu, but the connection with the library is lost.
    I also have a desktop computer (windows 7) running with a different iTunes library, and when i stream music from that library everything works fine. So my guess is that there is something wrong in the laptop (ACER Travelmate). I tried loads of things but they all do not seem to work:
    - switched off windows firewall
    - switched off IP/V6
    - reinstalled the bonjour software
    - reinstalled the itunes software
    - I use a TP-link router with up to date firmware
    Any ideas what might cause this problem? Is there maybe any other software that could be blocking my connection?
    Tnx!

    I have the same problem.  I think it is disgusting that nobody at Apple has responded to your post.  I see no evidence that Apple cares about this bug, which renders Airplay (on Apple TV) useless.

  • Audio cuts out after 2 minutes

    I'm having a bizzare trouble with the Audio cutting out after 2 minutes while watching TV.  It comes back for exactly 2 minutes only after I change the chanel, and with every subsequent chanel change after.
    I have the Audio out on the @anywhere card connected to the line-in on my Audigy 2 sound card via a stero cable (which I've changed) and I've verrified that my sound card is ok by running other devices into the computer through the line-in.  
    I've also had alot of trouble with the MSIPVS software crashing and causing my system to hang.  I've only had the card and software for a short time and am still working out the bugs but any help will be appreciated.

    Did you look at the top of THIS forum? In the Announcements and Important threads? I know there is a sticky thread about sound cutting out, it may, or may not be related to the one problem you have.
