Many of my songs are incomplete and will cut out towards the end

I've had this problem for several years now. I have over 4,000 songs (most of which were purchased through iTunes and the rest imported from CDs). A lot my songs will play for a little while and cut out at the end. Sometimes it's just silence but lately the next song will just start playing. When I go into my iPhone to check it out it still has the album artwork and everything from the previous song.
I've contacted support several times about this over the years. The first time I was told to connect to my computer and reload all my songs. This seemed to fix many of the songs but then I would notice other songs had the problem. I was then told to redownload all of my purchases and to sync again. Same thing happened. It seemed alright for a while until the same problem occured. The third time I tried to get it fixed I was advised to delete the song from my phone and redownload it through the iTunes app. This seemed to fix each individual song (though its not very practical). But now even that no longer works. I delete the song and redownload it only to find that it still skips to the next song without registering it. It's driving me nuts and, while I can't prove it, I'm pretty sure the problem is growing. I notice songs that played fine a few weeks ago do the same thing. Considering the amount of money I've spent purchasing music it's maddening not being able to listen to a complete song.
Is there any fix for this? I've found similar posts but no new advice. Any help that anyone can provide would be welcome.
Some additional info...this happened when I had my iPod touch, my iPhone 4 and now my iPhone 5. My software is up to date.
Thanks.

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks 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 you don't see them straight away it may help to restart iTunes. While downloading select the Downloads widget near the top-right (iTunes 11) or in the entry in the left-hand column (older iTunes) and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
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.

ITunes movies--video stutters, then sound cuts out

When I play a video file in iTunes, it starts out just fine, but within a few minutes, the video stutters and the audio cuts out completely. The video will continue playing (although it will continue to stutter a bit) but the audio never comes back. Also, oddly, the search box has a white rectangle in it that covers the blue border of the box. It's a little hard to describe. I've tried a ton of things to try to fix the problem, and nothing's worked yet. It happens unfailingly, and I've tried updating drivers, re-installing Quicktime, re-installing iTunes (incidentally, the problem has persisted throughout several iTunes and Windows updates), and a lot more that I can't even remember. I'm on a PC running Windows 8. Does anyone have any suggestions?

This solution was posted by tmeader on iLounge forums:
You need QT Pro:
1) Open up the Video file in Quicktime Pro
2) Select File->Export
3) Select "Movie to MPEG-4" beside "Export:", then click the OPtions button
4) Select "Video" and make sure that the "Video Format" is set to "Pass through"
5) Do the same for "Audio", then hit OK
6) Save the file
Or you can downgrade the firmware from 1.1 to 1.0:

Yu can get the previous updater at Apple support.

Mouse freeze and sound cutting out

Since I've upgraded to OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), when I switch between open programs, my Logitech Performance MX mouse (uses USB receiver) stops responding for about 30 seconds. When this happens, the audio from my Bose speakers cuts out. While the Logitech mouse is forzen, I can still use the Apple bluetooth trackpad. To be clear, this mouse.audio chain reaciton issue doesn't happen every time I switch between open applications. It doesn't seem to happen specifically when switching out of any particular application but it does seem to happen more frequently when switching out of Firefox. But like i said, even with Firefox completely closed it still happens.
Sometimes the audio will stutter a bit and then will kick back in, but sometimes even after hours the only way to get audio is to either switch to the iMac's internal speakers, or restart the computer.
I opened the console to see what was happening when the mouse freezes and I get the following lines:
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: com_Logitech_HIPointing::terminate(kIOServiceSynchronous) timeout

Alright, so I solved this myself by changing the resolution. Would've liked to resolve it a different way, but this works for now! So, anybody else who may see my issue.... go to system preferences>display and change the resoltuion.

Help, itunes doesn't want to work with airtunes and my airport express!

Strangely specific problem with playing itunes using airtunes. Just connected an Airport express to my time capsule. All the software and firmware is up to date, and I'm streaming from itunes to an airport express connected to a stereo. My itunes is on a laptop. My library is on the time capsule. Almost everytime the song changes, the audio drops out and stays out until I pause and replay the song. It's the weirdest thing. There are no random audio drops, just a failure to keep playing when the song switches (and it doesn't happen every time, just some of the time). This is similar but not the same as the problems other folks are having with airport express and itunes audio drop outs. Does anyone have a solution?

Problem solved. Upgrading to most recent itunes relased yesterday seems to have fixed the problem.

Sound cuts out after 1 sec on .avi files in QuickTime

First, let me preface this post by saying that I have spent about a week searching through different posts in these and other forums regarding similar issues, and have yet to find a solution that works for me.
So I have been trying to play certain .avi files with QuickTime that I BELIEVE have been encoded with the XviD codec. At first, no sound played at all. After installing a bunch of different codec files, including packages such as Perian and codecs such as DivX, XviD, and AC3. I finally managed to get QuickTime to play these videos with sound for about a second, after which the sound cuts out. Also, if I rewind or skip to another point in the video, the sound will restart again for about one second and then cut out once more.
I should mention that these videos work perfectly when I play them with the DivX player. Does anyone have any suggestions or anyone with similar issues? I am currently running OS X 10.7 (Lion) on a new MacBook Pro 15"

As stated on the Perian "Support" web page, "Please consider removing obsolete QuickTime Components: FFusion, Xvid Delegate, 3ivX, DivX, DivX Decoder, XviD, msmpeg4v1, msmpeg4v2, AviImporter, EX_M4S2, Casio AVI Importer, AC3 Codec, and MatroskaQT." Having multiple codecs for the same compression formats can create component conflicts. Since Perian component package supports all of the named codecs, it is not necessary to have both Perian and the named codecs simultaneously installed.
In addition, Lion seems to also be prone to conflicts with third-party software apps and hardware peripheral casrds/devices. If possible, it is usually best to disconnect/close anything you can during the tests. Also, it might be a good idea to test the same files on alternative systems. (I.e., if possible, you might like to post a sample problem file to see if others can play them without problem on other platforms operating under Lion OS as a further conflict test.)

Why do the movies i have bought from itunes store the sound cuts out and glitches?

The sound cuts out of the movies I have bought. Can anyone tell me why?

You can't. Sorry. Encrypted movies in no way can be played back thru the VGA adapter.
You could do the following:
- get the Apple TV and stream the video to it. If you only have VGA input in your protector, get a HDMI -> VGA converter box. I use the one at http://www.dealextreme.com/p/hdmi-to-vga-video-converter-71816 for this purpose. It's pretty cool for the price - nevertheless, there're better models for more money; let me know if you need further recommendations on them. (Note that I haven't tested this unit with a direct HDMI output from the iPad yet. Will do it soon.)
- if the projector does have HDMI input, test it with the HDMI adapter. Hope the projector supports HDCP.

I have a iPhone 4S and when watching videos on the internet sound cuts out as the video is playing. The rest of the video plays with no sound. Sometimes when I pause It and play again sound comes back but not all the time. can anyone help?

The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

My ipod video sound cuts out after 30 sec

I play my movie and the sound cuts out after a while and then it only plays the video with no sound. It's not the video because it works fine on my computer and all the other videos are doing the same thing. I found if I rewind or fast foreward the sound comes back but only for a little while and the sound cuts out again.

This happens with the current firmware 1.1 upgrade on the iPod. You can downgrade the firmware to 1.0 and this will solve that problem. Doing it this way you won't have to restore the iPod which will erase it. If you can't do this then you can restore the iPod using the previous updater.

T410 - sound cuts out during playback, resumes after pressing volup or voldown

hello, I am using T410 with Win& x64, more more than 2yrs. Last week the sound playback issue occured. This happens with video and audio playback of any file type. After 2-3 mins of normal playback sound cuts out, but resumes right after I press vol up or down. Then after 2-3 mins it cuts out again and so on. I dont believe its a software -related error, since sound does not play even with Knoppix Live CD. Latest drivers and BIOS updates are properly installed. windows sound test finishes succesfully. I have read similar posts but all were related to software configuration. I have also replaced the speakers without change. Is there a known fix, or even a fix at all? Thanks

Yes, videos, music, online, off-line and even window sounds, all audio turns off. Sometimes messing with the volume slider or mute button will bring it back on but eventually neither of these work and I have no audio period until I restart the computer and then the cycle starts over. For my business I create informational short videos or audios and use internet calling. I also attend trainings and meetings online. Sound cuts out first every few minutes and gradually increasing until it will not come back on at all. I purchased a small bluetooth speaker and use that but it is a pain to move, along with the laptop, when I am moving from one room or location to another. Thought it would be a temporary solution until I could get the internal speakers working but since that is unlikely to happen purchased clipon speakers to make it easier to transport. This is not some off brand, $350 computer but supposedly a quality business computer, which is what I paid for but did not receive. As I said, I have searched the internet and found hundreds of post regarding this problem on both 410s and 510s.

Video problem - sound cuts out after 29 minutes.

I have put some TV shows from my computer onto my iPod but after 29 minutes, the sound cuts out and I am left with just the video. If I skip past 29 minutes, the screen goes black for a second, then returns to the previous menu.
My iPod is a 30GB 5G with iPod Software version 1.2.
I used iTunes 7 and tried 7.0.1 to copy the videos to my iPod. They play fine on the computer.
I have put films (1hr+) on before and they have worked fine, however that was with iPod software 1.1 and an older version of iTunes.
Any ideas?

Well sounds like the TV shows had transferred errors. Have you tried reloading them?
Also make sure the Frame rate, and Audio rate are working ok. You will know if they are not, if voice and video are off even slightly. Also how long are the TV shows? 30 Min? If they are, then it may just be a corruption or skipped of the last min or few seconds, because the video is ending. That would explain the black screen. It does that after the video finished and it goes back to the last screen. So it just may have not copied the last few sec of the video, that happens sometimes. Try reloading it again!
Also if that does not work, try resetting the Ipod. I would hate for you to “Restore” your Ipod for just 30-60 sec of lost sound of a TV show. Especially if everything else if working well.
Best of luck. Don’t forget, if this post helped you, click Solved or Helped at the top of the post. It makes our rank better!
Have a great day, and hope you fix your problem.
P.s. it could just be that your Tv shows End at 29 min-ish as well IDK?

Sound Cutting Out on Standard Def Channels with or wthout DVR

Hi!
We are having occasional sound drop-out problems. They seem to only be happening on standard def channels although we have a hi-def box. (We often record sitcoms and kids shows in standard def to save room on the DVR.)
The problem is that the sound cuts out for a fraction of a second (just long enough to notice) at random spots. If we rewind and play it back, it still drops out in the same spot so it seems the issue is with the signal getting to the box from the outside line, not an hdmi cable issue as I've seen mentioned elsewhere.
The issue occurs whether we're watching a previously recorded show or a "live" one (understanding that even the live shows are delayed a few seconds to enable the DVR to record it).
I've seen other sound issues related to switching channels but this is not the case here.
I've also had it happen on a small TV with no box. We just have the coax going right into the display to watch standard def network shows on it. This leads me to think it's a signal issue, not a DVR one.
Anyone else have this and/or have any luck in getting it resolved?
Thanks!
Jeff

Hello Jeff,
I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble with the sound on the Set Top Boxes. I sent you a private message to further assist you.

Sound cuts out after any given amount of time, only way to turn back on is to reboot.

For reference, I am using a fully up-to-date mid-2012 model rMBP. Attached to my MacBook via USB I also have an M-Audio KeyStation 49i, which is where I have my headphones plugged in (probably not related in any way, but just noting this).
I first encountered this issue while using Chrome and listening to music on SoundCloud with Garageband open after the last Mavericks update yesterday. I initially thought it was a Chrome bug, and in doing some research, I found that other Chrome users were having the same issue as me, but it was related to PepperFlash (a version of the standard Flash player), and disabling it in Chrome Canary fixed the issue for them.
Unfortunately, it did not fix the issue for me, but I have refrained from using Chrome since then and stuck to Safari to ensure that it's not two issues with the same outcome.
Then I stumbled across all of the Mavericks users that are having sound problems; anything from crackling/popping to not working at all. It seemed, though, that everyone that was having the sound cut out for them entirely were not only having this happen after their laptops came back from sleep mode (which is not the case for me), but were able to fix it by restarting Coreaudio[d] or -- if they had been using the headphone jack on their Macs -- they just had to plug it in again and take it back out. Neither of these worked or were applicable to my situation. Some were able to get it working again by resetting the PRAM/NVRAM, and a few others seemed to be able to bypass the issue by using Soundflower, but neither of these solutions worked for me either. The only way I can get sound to work again is to restart my computer entirely.
After doing so, I am only able to listen to audio for a certain amount of time. It seems to vary depending on how much memory the task is taking up. Like I'll be able to listen to a track or two on SoundCloud, or attempt to record into Garageband for five minutes or so. If I'm in a Garageband project that already has a lot of tracks, I'll be lucky if I can even get through a few seconds before it cuts out entirely. There are very quiet crackling/pop sounds every once and awhile, but it is hard for me to distinguish if that is just the natural state of the hardware I am using or if it is related to background system sounds.
I'm at wit's end trying to figure out what the problem is, mostly because there are so many others with similar issues and varying hardware/software setups that it's hard to track down exactly what my own situation is.
I'd like to know where I should be exporting any error logs from so that someone can take a look at this issue.
Thank you.

After doing some additional testing, I was able to get the sound working again without rebooting by:
1. Unplugging the MIDI device.
2. Resetting the audio input and output to "built-in".
3. Plugging back in the MIDI device.
4. Changing the audio input and output back to the MIDI device.
Still, though, the sound only lasts for a little while, and there doesn't seem to be anything indicating how or why it stops.
