Why can't I play my music with version 10.6.1.7?

I just upgraded my iTunes software to version 10.6.1.7 from the previous version 10.6.0.40 the other day. Now, I can't play out any of the music on my computer. When you click on any song, the play head does not advance at all.
Can anyone help me out here? I'd gladly downgrade back to my previous version if I knew how. This is extremely frustrating. Even when I pop a CD into the computer, it brings up iTunes and I have the same issue.
This was not an issue at all with my previous version.

I uninstalled iTunes, downloaded it again and re-installed it. Same issue. Did a Windows System Restore on my computer for a few days before I initially updated the iTunes software to 10.6.1.7. Computer showed my version of iTunes to be 10.6.0.40. Only problem now is that I'm still having this issue, and it was not an issue prior to the upgrade. Please keep in mind that the day I did the upgrade, I did not go into iTunes to play any music, so I did not see the problem on the day of the initial upgrade.
In a nutshell, I cannot play my music files with any software programs, not even in Windows Media as it does not recognize the files.
On my wife's computer in iTunes, the pop up for the upgrade came up today while I was checking her computer. I clicked on do not install. I don't trust it and now I wish someone could help me salvage my account on my computer before I do something drastic like wipe the computer clean and re-install everything.

  • Why can't I play my music after having moved to a new country?

    I moved countries four years ago and thought I had transfered my account to my new home country. I just purchased a new MacBook, authorized it and deauthorized the old one (which worked just fine) and can't play my music. iTunes tells me to authorize the account in my old country which I thought was transfered to my new country.

    Well, finally it didn't: I only have access to part of my library! I have an appointment with the Genius Bar next week to get this fixed...

  • Why can't I sync my music with my iPad mini? I am using the latest version of all software available

    I don't understand why I cannot sync any of my songs with my ipad mini through itunes. Please help

    Hello cwill2
    Change one of the options to sync, like check to see if you are Manually managing your music and videos. If you are you can drag and drop the music you want to your iPad mini. If you are not, then check the things that you want synced in the music tab when looking at your iPad mini in iTunes. Either way, change it and sync, then revert the changes and you should be able to get your music on there.

  • Why can't I play VEVO videos with McTube Pro on my iPad?

    Until recently VEVO music videos would play fine on my iPad and iPhone 5 with McTube Pro. I only noticed this week that they won't play anymore besides the ones I have already saved to the cache.
    I get this error every time I try to access any VEVO video or channel.
    "Playback Failed. You do not have permission to access the requested resource."
    Since I have tried numerous times on two iOS devices and it doesn't work on either of them, I assume it's nothing to do with my devices specifically.
    The videos work on the YouTube app and YouTube itself, just not McTube Pro. I wouldn't mind so much if only YouTube didn't have so many ads, some that can't even be skipped.

    Thanks. 16 people and many more have this issue as well, so I have no doubt that it's not my iPad.
    I checked the app store and saw that they have now removed the paying feature, so it's an entirely free app now. I'm also told I have never downloaded this app despite having it on all my devices, so I suspect it is being treated as a new app after those updates. That would explain why some people ended up paying twice at first.
    I'm afraid that the issue won't ever be resolved now that they have stopped working on the "old" McTube Pro that, for many of us, still supports caching.

  • New mac user - Why can't FrontRow play my music?

    I'm new to macs, but I've had a few dreadful experiences so far and I hope I can get some help. I just got through using Senuti to move my iPod's songs to my Mac Mini after they unexpectedly disappeared from there.
    However, now that I have my songs back, FrontRow cant find them. When I click on a playlist in FrontRow, it is simply blank. All my songs are in Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. Is this a bug with Senuti or what?
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Mac Mini Intel 1.5Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    That's weird, it only finds songs when they're check-marked. I check-marked all songs in my library and everything's back to normal.
    If anyone knows why, please let me know. It's weird. At least it works, though.

  • Why can't I play downloaded podcasts with WiFi and Cell Data turned off?

    I'm on a limited data plan and want to ensure I'm not downloading or streaming podcasts when I'm not on WiFi.  It appears I have several podcasts downloaded (Blue Dot next to the title) but I'm not sure.... When I turn off WiFi and Cell Data, the podcasts grey out and are unable to play.  Why would I not be able to play a downloaded podcast while I'm off the network (both WiFi and Cell data)?

    Update....  Apparently the blue dot just indicates whether or not you've listened to the particular podcast or not, regardless of it's download status.  After playing with the app more, it also appears that many podcasts are not downloading to the device as I thought.  When I turn on Airplane mode, many podcasts are not playable (greyed out) but some that I have already listened to are playable.  I'm assuming the podcasts that are playable when on airplane mode are the only ones that are actually downloaded to the device (this makes sense doesn't it?).  So now my question is, "why aren't these podcasts being downloaded after I press the download button?".   They seem to play OK in streaming mode, either from WiFi or Cell Network.  Any insights?
    Thanks.

  • Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?

    why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?  The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot.  Can anyone advise me please.  It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!

    What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

  • HT204382 Why can't I play a .MOV movie on my apple (MacBook Pro)?

    My parents have been sending me little .MOV movies via email. But I can't play them on my MacBook Pro. I am however able to play them on my iPhone.
    Why can't I play it on my computer?
    This is the error msg I get: The document “IMG_0259.MOV” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands. You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
    Many thanks,
    Mascha

    I have the same problem. I make a video on my iPhone and email it to my webmail, can't open it on the MacBookPro, but can on my phone from my webmail. On the MacBookPro, a screen opens that displays the "Q" from Quicktime with a question mark on it. That's all I get!
    Thought I didn't have quicktime, but since the computer comes with it and my updates are all up to date, it just doesn't make any sense. This has only started recently. The two videos in question are the longest (under 15 min but over 10) ones I've ever had. When I go to email them, it says they are too long but send them anyway.
    I am perplexed. I really want to be able to watch them (or I wouldn't have made them in the first place) and just can't figure out what to do!!

  • TS1424 Just purchased Beatles' Tomorrow Never Knows.  But some (four) of the cuts did not download and can't be played or synced with ipod.  Any help?

    Just purchased Beatles' Tomorrow Never Knows.  But a few of the cuts did not download properly and can't be played or synced with ipod.  Any 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.
