Audio stutters when listening to music on U410

I have a U410 ultrabook (purchased in Nov. 2012) which has been working fine until a couple weeks ago. Almost any time I try to listen to music now (either online with internet radio or locally with mp3s), the sound will stutter and skip. This happens about once a minute.
I haven't installed any new software or changed drivers lately, but the computer does seem to be slowing down a bit compared to when it was brand new.
Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any ideas on fixes?

For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

for some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store. my old iphone 4s audio jack was messed up but i just got a new one with my warranty , can anyone help me please.

It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

When listening to music on ATV, it plays two songs from the playlist, then won't play any more. You can see playlist and songs, but won't respond. Any ideas?

When listening to music on ATV, it will play two songs from the playlist, then no more. You can see the playlist on songs, but it won't play. Turned everything off, reset the network...nothing works. Any ideas? It used to play fine...for hours at a time.

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
It is happening via "shuffle" in a playlist. Always two different songs within the playlist. You can see the next song on the screen that should, theoretically, be playing...but nothing happens. Even when you push "play" on the remote, it doesn't receive the command.
I reset, then restored ATV. Now, it doesn't limit itself to two songs, but does stop after a few. The more trial and error I do, the more I believe the problem is with Homesharing in iTunes. If I turn off Homeshare, then turn it back on, a couple more songs will play in the playlist. I have shut down iTunes, restarted computer, completed updates, but nothing seems to change it.
It used to play fine for hours on end, but has now found this glitch.

Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire. I have a 4th gen iPod Touch.

Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire. I have a 4th gen iPod Touch. A Genius suggested something went wrong during the transfer from my MBP to my iPod, but I tried resyncing it, and it seems to happen haphazardly. Even if a podcast plays oddly one time, it might play perfect the next - so it can't have been the sync that went bad.

- First try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next restore from backup
- The restore to factory defaults/new iPod

Lumia 920 crash when listening to music

Hi,
My Nokia Lumia 920, windows 8 mobile keeps crashing when I listen to music from "Nokia Music". I usually use nokia-provided headsets when listening to music. In recent times the crash has become more frequent. When listening to music, the handset just reboots without any notification.
Is there a place I could look at the crash dump and submit it as an issue ?

have you tried a soft reset? i'm not talking about what you think might or might not work, i'm talking about trying it. it doesn't wipe any data. if it still doesn't work, then you may need to perform a hard reset (Settings > About > Reset your phone), which will wipe everything, so please make a backup to PC and/or online storage of your data first.
failing that, you will need to take your phone to your Nokia Care for inspection: http://nokia.com/support

Iphone 5s overheats when listening to music

my iphon 5s overheats when listening to music sometimes after only 2 or 3 songs.
i took it into the apple store they gave me a new phone after seeing there was 5 overheating notifications.
now it happened again on my new phone. i heard something about disabeling syncing between icloud and safari. will this work?

Welcome to the discussions,
did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again? If still no change, a restore "as new iphone" would be the next step. In that case don't use your backup to get your data back, it may contain damaged files causing your problem.

When listening to music on my iPhone 4S, the music stops when the screen fades.

When listening to music on my iPhone 4S, the music stops when the screen fades. I am not using my earphones. Can someone suggest some ear buds that will work with my iPhone4S? The Apple ones do not fit...too small.

Audio Stuttering When Music Score is Inserted

I created my first video using Premiere Elements 12 & was pleased with the results. YAY!!! I deleted all the existing audio and used Audio | Drag & Drop to insert Spin followed by Afternoon Sun. Worked great, saved the file & uploaded to YouTube. I then realized that I wanted to add two additional clips totaling less than 10 seconds. My first mistake was in not saving the file under a new name immediately (DOH!), but I digress. New video clips added to Project Assets panel, inserted into Timeline & trimmed a tad. No problem. I then tried to expand the audio to include the new clips. Realized one couldn't simply make the tune longer to accommodate the additions so I deleted the audio completely & added the audio scores as though starting fresh. The audio / music score skipped every few seconds with no discernible pattern, say, always at the beginning of a new clip. I made sure that I had clicked on Render, but that didn't smooth out the silent gaps in the music. Even the preview of the two musical scores stuttered intermittently so I thought the files must have somehow become corrupted.
I saved the file under a new name, exited the program, uninstalled, then reinstalled Premiere from the DVD. After all that, the previews STILL stutter. I've lost an entire afternoon trying to add those two brief clips. I can see the cursor flicker during the preview, but can't figure out how to correct the issue. I have closed down every other program & re-booted and it would seem that my 8GB of RAM should be sufficient plus it worked before, even with Photoshop Elements & Chrome open. Since the audio files are downloaded, I thought a slow download speed might be at fault. I ran a SpeedTest showing my download speed is 12 Mbps. I've had Premiere 10 on my computer for ages & never used it, but upgraded to 12 specifically to have access to royalty-free music & now that feature isn't working. As a newbie, I'm probably missing something obvious. PLEASE HELP before I resort to violence against my poor computer.
Thanks!
Victoria

I forgot to mention that my mp3 files play fine so this isn't an issue with my speakers. Further, I get the stuttering / gaps in other music scores I've not even downloaded while using the Music Score preview feature.

Audio Stuttering When Importing Video

Hey guys, quick question.
I am currently working on a project that was given to me in the form of one Mini-DV tape. I'm trying to capture the footage into Premiere CS3, however, both as I'm capturing and while I'm watching the captured footage, there is a ton of audio stuttering, rendering the clips worthless.
I'm capturing using a Canon Ultura A mini-dv cam. When I listen to the audio coming from the camera's speakers, it's perfect. Only on the computer do I have issues with it.
My computer's speed should not be a problem either, I'm running premiere on this:
Intel Core2Duo E6600 @ 2.4
2 GB DDR2-800 ram
MSI P6N Platinum Motherboard (This is where the firewire port is located)
Nvidia 8800 GTX Graphics card
Creative X-fi Soundcard.
Any ideas on potential fixes?

Interesting, I will have to try and find another firewire cable to see if that fixes the problem.
Any other capture programs you guys could recommend for me to check out?

Updated to 4.4 and now my Bluetooth 'studders' when listening to music and a phone call. Yes I have reset the phone and removed the battery.

I just updated my Note 3 to 4.4.2. Since then when I listen to music or make a call on my Bluetooth my music and calls 'studders' and has some type of 'drop-outs' during the music and calls. This was not the case prior to the update.
Yes, I have power down the phone. Yes, I have removed the battery and restarted the phone. My Bluetooth headset is an LG 730. I tried listening to music on my other Bluetooth devices and they also 'studders' and has drop-outs during calls and music. I connected with a wired headset and the 'studdering' disappeared.
Is there a way to revert back to the previous 4.3 version of Android. I use my phone extensively for business and drive with it. The law for my state requires 'hands free' usage of my phone.

Unfortunately, I was forced to do a factory Reset. This wiped the device to a new state.
Afterwards all Blue-tooth, wi-fi and calls operated fine.
I would advise that you notify your customers that they would most likely have to do a Factory Reset once they update their device.
All contacts, pictures, data and applications were either lost or had to be reinstalled.

In iOS 7 I am no longer able to use the forward and revese keys when listening to music or spoken word

I use my iPhone in the car. It has been a really useful feature to be able to fast forward and reverse buttons on the steering wheel when listening to an iBook. This no longer works with iO7 and I am really disappointed that I now have to revert to using the keys on the iPhone rather than the cars steering wheel. I also now get regular warnings that the cables I am using were not made for the iPhone. I bought them from Apple direct so what

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp50501-51000/sp50856.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.

Problem with the speaker when listening to music

I've been having problem with my iphones speaker when im listening to music through it, like u would hear a bad sound and annoying noise, wat can i do to fix this problem?

Another thing to think of that might help.
If you hear an odd sound intermittently over speakers when the iphone is near, that could be GSM interference. GSM phones produce this interference when contacting the cell network. You don't have to be using the phone for this to happen. The phone is in constant contact with the cell network to check time, signal strength and a range of other things you might have turn on the phone.
one way you could test this is to put the iphone into airplane mode and play the music for a while.
Hope this helps.

Headphones/earbuds and carrying options when listening to music?

How is everyone carrying their iPhone and listening to music? I see there is an earbuds option with a microphone but unlike the Nano there isn't a lanyard option. Are people putting it in their shirt pocket (what about you gals?) or clipping it on your belt?
With my Nano (and the touchwheel) carried around my neck lanyard I can easily change volume by touch which is very convenient. I assume with no such wheel I'll have to at least look at the iPhone so I'm trying to figure out the best strategy for carrying it while music playing and would like to know what others are doing.

Hi,
Which phone model are you using? And when this happens, are you doing something special with the phone? Does the volume go up by itself again or do you need to press the volume up(+) button to increase it? Do you get any kind of message when you press the volume up(+) button after this behaviour?
