When playing music in itunes, music stops when screen shuts down

I am using Windows Vista, when the screen shuts down for power saving. The song playing will continue, but the next one will not begin. This is when I am just playing music through itunes on computer. Can anyone help?
Many thanks

Hello TheDonsCheek,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with the audio when nothing is playing in iTunes on your MacBook Pro. I recommend reviewing the following article to see if any third-party plug-ins could be causing the problem:

My itunes will stop working and shuts down after 5 to 10 minutes playing. I have the most recent updates. How can I repair or correct this from crashing?

Why do you have to keep adding new items to farm town when the servers you have cant cope now?? No wonder so many people left, but now i see you are adding new items to get them all back, well all my friends have stoped playing because of all the problems. The main problam i have is that i cant work on other people farms therefore i cant earn coins ect ect, I keep getting this bloody sign saying connection to server timed out please tick the tick to reload the game, and as you know thats the end of that job. Please get your servers sorted out before adding anymore new items, I usually use firefox but i have also used IE they are both the same makes no differance. Regards John

When I import to itunes my computer sleeps or shuts down.

When I import to itunes, and work in another program, my computer either sleeps or shuts down. Sleeping is much more frequent but it's extremely frustrating. Obviously I didn't use to do this. I suspect it is as a result of an upgrade, but am unsure. any suggestions would be very gratefull accepted.

Not it. Thanks. I tried it, so thanks for the tip, but I get the same error message. That I need to authorize this computer to get the purchases. I guess it's not really an error message. But It will not let me proceed any further. Once again I have deauthorized and this is the only computer that is authorized for this account.
Then
Then and last
Pretty annoying. Any ideas?

When using iTunes it stops working and shuts down.

I am unable to use the program at all, wether I am trying to sync my new iPod Touch or just to play music. The only thing I haven't tried is uninstalling the program and I am holding off on that until I find out if I am going to lose all of my music or not. Somebody, please help me.

1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

WHENEVER i SURF THE WEB AND PLAY ITUNES MUSIC, THE ITUNES MUSIC STICKS AND SKIPS AND STOPS AND STARTS. i HAVE BRAODBAND COnNECTION AND AN ADEQUATE MODEM

I am experiencing the same problem, not being able to access internet at the same time as streaming iTunes music through an Airport Express.
Our configuration consists ot; an iMac G5 and an AirPort Express connected to a cable modem.
This problem first occurred using iTunes 7.0, now updated to iTunes 7.0.1, along with OS X 10.4.8
I have followed the Apple troubleshooting guide - without success to this point. The internet can be accessed (although slower than usual). However when the AX is set, using the AirPort Admin Utility to provide an AX provided IP address to the computer, the internet disappears, but iTunes can play over the network via the AX station.
I am suspecting a damaged preference file, or something of that nature, but am not sure what file(s) to be searching for.
Any help here would be appreciated.
thanx

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store"

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store" As I am new at this I don't know what I can do to remove this problem.

What country are you in ? If you aren't in the US and the address on your account isn't in the US then try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.

Excessive static when playing songs on itune

When playing anything on Itunes whether it is a cd or imported music I got a lot of static. I also hear it if I play a cd, but not on other media such as You Tube.

Are you talking about your earphones when you say "input my speakers"? If so, have you tried testing another pair of earphones to make sure the problem is not the earphones? Do the songs play fine when you play them without the earphones (using the iPhone speaker at the bottom of your phone)? Is the problem with every song you play? If you rule out everything else but the iPhone as being the issue then you may want to visit an Apple store (if available) or a VZW store so they can check the device. You might also want to try taking your music off of the iPhone and then re-syncing them back to the phone to see if that does anything. I would guess that the problem is with the earphones or whatever speakers you may be plugging in. Also...this may seem like an obvious thing but check to make sure that the cable is inserted fully into the iPhone.

Help! I just got a new MacBook and I cannot figure out how to authorize it to play my purchased iTunes music.

Hi!
I just got my new Macbook today (!!!) and I love it, but I can't figure out how to authorize this computer to play my purchased itunes music. I don't have any other computers authorized to play my purchased music, as I have de-authorized my previous computer. How do I authorize this new one? I know the FAQ section says to go to Store > Authorize computer, but I can't seem to find where this is located? I've never owned a Mac before.

Silly me... I didn't realize that the top of the screen changes as you change windows (unlike windows computers). Thank you so much for the help. I really appreciate it!

I upgraded my iPad (3rd gen) to iOS 7. When I go to iTunes and look at the summary and to the "Apps" list tab, iTunes stops working and shuts down. What can I do? I am using a Windows 7 machine.

Hi thanks for the encouragement. It's not that the severs are "swamped", iOS 7 has been successfully installed.
I can't access the apps list in iTunes because it *****
down. Its pretty frustrating because many of my apps require me to manually transfer files into iTunes first to view
them. Not sure if the servers being swamped is an issue for me, unless they release a bug fix through another version of iTunes.
Has anyone else had this problem? My iPad is pretty useless unless I can access my app list in iTunes....

When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

Max OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1
I had a similar problem: I wanted to synch my playlist to my iphone. I like to have my playlist sorted by genre. But under each genre, albums are not sorted by the track numbers. This is a problem, especially when I am listening to club mixes when the DJ smoothly transitions from 1 track sequentially to the next one. Under the properties of each audio file, the Track Numbers and Disc Numbers are already there.
My perfect solution was to turn On Sorting - Sort Album under View>Show View Options. Then, select all the songs in that album (Shift click, Cmd click, etc) , and Edit multiple item information (Cmd I). You will see Info-Video-Sorting-Options buttons. Click on Sorting. Then, under Sort Album, Enter the name of the album. Then OK.
You should now have the playlist sorted by Genre, then each album individually sorted by track numbers. On your playlist you should see, if you scroll right, the column added called "Sort Album".
Hope this helps.

Jumpy playback when playing movies wthin iTunes

I just downloaded iTunes 7 and a movie purchased and downloaded successfuly. When playing it within iTunes 7 The picture is very jumpy and skips frames. Also when playing within iTunes 7 it generates or uses a lot of my resources 50% to 60% and veriates. I did figure out that I can watch the movie by opening my QuickTime player and find the file of the movie and it plays fine, flawless awesome quality of picture without jumping and my resources stay under 2% even if I run other aplications at the same time.
My question is how do I get it to play the same within iTunes 7 so I can enjoy the full screen option and avoid jumping through all the hoops just to open and play the movie? I did try fix tool within the instal program and it did not fix the problem. Thanks for any help you can give!

I am having exactly the same problem--my movie and TV shows are very jumpy. It gets significantly worse at loud or fast-moving sections. I've not found any solution.

Cannot Buy Music on iTunes Music Store --- WOW -What's Happening at Apple ?

I am running iTunes 6.0.4.2. Since I upgraded I have not been able to purchase the music in my shopping cart, currently valued at about $200.00
My shopping cart displays properly, and when I click on the “Buy Now” button I get the normal purchase dialog. My account name is displayed correctly. After I enter my password I receivethe following message --
“Purchasing Shopping Cart”
Unfortunately, the buy attempt fails, and it fails repeatedly. Over the past two days I have tried over 20 times to purchase music from the Music Store, and in every case the result is failure.
The error messsages follow a pattern
ERROR MESSAGE ON FIRST ATTEMPT
“Your account is temporarily unavailable.
The store is unable to access your account information. You may continue to browse the store. Please try again in a few minutes.”
ERROR MESSAGE ON SECOND ATTEMPT
“Could not purchase the items in your cart.
The store is temporarily unavailable. (5555)
There was an error in the Music Store.
Please try again later.”
ERROR MESSAGE ON THIRD ATTEMPT
“Could not purchase the items in your cart.
An unknown error occurred. (-50)
There was an error in the Music Store.
Please try again later.”
After these errors the system simply fails to provide any error messages at all.
My music downloads never start.
These errors seem to be permanent. Over the course of all last evening, early this morning, and now late this afternoon, I have received the same set of error messages over 20 times.
Seems like Apple's iTunes is not producing much revenue.
How about a fix ASAP ?
This is CLEARLY Apple's problem, NOT Mine, as evidenced in these iTunes generated error messages.
Come on, Apple – Clear up this mess
LATE BREAKING NEWS -- I now only receive the first error message, after which the Music Store just sits there unresponsively, producing no messages at all.
I guess Apple did not like the 2nd and 3rd messages. They clearly indicate that Apple is at fault here. From the number of postings, I guess that it pretty clear to all of us.
COMMENTS ?

It's interesting. There's clearly something wrong with the Music Store, but everyone seems to be having different problems. All lead to not being able to connect or stay connected. I can't connect. I don't even get the luxury of starting something in the store and getting an error message. It just sits there reading "Accessing Music Store." And it never accesses. And if I leave my computer on and let iTunes run, it will continue to say "Accessing Music Store." I can even close out iTunes and reopen it and it will continue to say "Accessing Music Store." It gets stuck. It's doing it right now. The only way I can get it to stop is by shutting down my computer. That's right. Even if I disconnect my LAN line, it will continue to read...well, you get the point now, I'm sure.
I am glad to find out that it's not just a problem with my computer. My computer's not the best, so I was convinced that it was just my computer. But I just happened to take a look at the forum. Well, it looks like we're just going to have to wait for Apple to do something about it.
