7.3.1 (3) - Songs stop briefly a few seconds in

Has anyone noticed a problem with iTunes 7.3.1 (3), whereby playback pauses for maybe a second or so during the opening few seconds of each track? Better yet, any solutions?
Thanks!

Do you have any software that is searching for info on the tracks (e.g pearLyrics widget, Clutter looking for artwork)? I've found if I'm using Clutter and the track has no artwork, Clutter will look for it and add it. However, the act of transferring the artwork to iTunes can cause the track to pause briefly. Programs that search for lyrics and automatically add them can cause the same problem.
Best of luck.

  • HT1923 preview song stops after a few seconds

    the preview song stops after a few seconds, any ideas on how to correct?

    Perhaps try resetting your iTunes Store Cache.
    Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:
    ... and then click OK.
    Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

  • Songs stop after a few seconds

    My problem on is that every songs just stops after a few seconds, I already searched for this on google and the only thing that I found was to disable high quality streaming and it's already disabled.This problem also only occurs on the downloaded software on my pc, the webplayer and spotify on my phone still work. I am using Windows 7 and I have Spotify Premium if this information helps. I hope you can help me with my problem :)

    I have that same problem! (It occured yesterday, after last update) What does NOT help in my case:- reinstall Spotify- close in Manager SpotifyWebHelper.exe- clean the cash and temporary files- update Java- turn off VPN If anyone finds the solution, please let me know :) I have Windows 7 as well (and I have disable Flash in web browsers - I don't know it's important)

  • One song stops after a few seconds on a new ipod touch, need some help

    So I just got a 16gb iPod Touch as a gift and it works fine, all my songs play fine except for one of my songs that stops after like 7 seconds of playing. If I have it on repeat it will keep doing the same thing but if I forward the song a bit it will play fine till the end. Now this song plays fine on my PC, and it has played fine on my previous iPod video. Any one have any idea on why this is happening? It's kinda scaring me since I don't have the receipt for this iPod Touch and thats one of my favorite songs.

    I had the same problem with one particular track I downloaded off Limewire earlier today and I've downloaded lotsa stuff on there over the years. I guess I'm fortunate compared to some of you with like 10 songs affected.
    Anyways a little troubleshooting helps here. First off, it shouldn't be happening with any track downloaded off iTunes. Those are clean as a whistle in my experiences although iPod touch had some bug issues with songs stopping few seconds into them when they first came out last year. That problem appears to have been rectified unless you guys haven't done an update lately on your units.
    So if you're downloading off Limewire or some other peer-to-peer service, you're probably getting a corrupted file that is causing this problem. I tried a couple different file downloads of the same song from different users and parameters until I found one that finally worked. It is true that a corrupted file will play on the older iPods because in my case it did on my 80GB and on my computer. It's only iPod touch that appears finicky about what it wants to play.
    This is most likely therefore not a bug specific issue with Apple that you can rely on fix. You guys are probably gonna have to find new source files for your affected songs until you get one that works. Pain in the arse no doubt but the only real solution.
    Cheers!

  • Songs stopping for a few seconds during playback in both my iPad 2 and my iPod. Running latest iTunes on both. Any fixes out there? It is extremely annoying.

    I noticed recently that more songs are stopping during playback for a few seconds in both my 4th generation iPod touch and my new iPad2. Very annoying. Any suggested fixes for this?  Thanks!

    I should mention, it was on low power as I was using it.

  • Song stops after a few seconds only

    I've got this one song on my iPod Classic 80GB (roughly 2 months old) I have an issue with.
    I only noticed it today for the very first time.
    Upon starting the song, it takes approximately 14 seconds, then the song is stopped and the iPod automatically moves forward to the next song on the album.
    I've never encountered this problem before and now I wonder why this is happening.
    I can avoid it manually by fast forwarding a bit, passing the 14-second mark.
    Suggestions, please.

    The iPod seems to have difficulty with some tracks - see my post HERE

  • Song stops after a few seconds

    Hi.  Have just upgraded my iMAC to Mountain Lion.  iTunes is slow.  Playlists created take a few seconds to show up in the list of playlists.  Downloaded an album this week and all songs play okay except 1 which stops after around 10 seconds.  When I check the info it says it's only 1.1 MB compared to 8 - 10 MB for all the other songs.  All songs play okay on my iPAD.
    Thanks

    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

  • Some songs stop playing after 60 seconds

    Most of the songs on my ipod were burned thru itunes from cd's I've purchased new from retail stores, Amazon, etc. I'm having a problem where some songs stop playing after 60 seconds. It then goes on to play the next song. Can anyone out there shed any light on this for me?
    Thank you.

    This has started to happen to me too.

  • HT1711 When I am in the iTunes store site and listening to samples of music the songs stop playing after 12 seconds. Does anyone know a way to get it to play the full one and one half minutes?

    When I am in the iTunes store site and listening to samples of music the songs stop playing after 12 seconds. Does anyone know a way to get it to play the full one and one half minutes?

    I have a similar problem with at least two songs that I know of, one is an iTunes download (encrypted) the other was imported from a CD using iTunes (no encryption). Both songs play 2-3 seconds then immediately go to the next song. The "weird" thing -- I plugged my iPod into my new MacBook which has no songs other than what are on my iPod (i.e., not playing the song from another source) and both songs play fine. Unplug the iPod from the computer, plug in headphones and the songs skip again.
    I've gone through the 5 R's as well, with no luck.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 stop after a few seconds

    I'm a CC subscriber and I recently updated my photoshop CC to photoshop CC 2014.
    I can start Photoshop but it automatically stops after a few seconds. I've already tried to uninstall / install multiple times without any success.
    When I read the file "amt3.log" in my temp dir, I can see "[ERROR] |  |  |  | AMT |  |  | 7188 | ERROR: Failure Validating Product License!".
    So it seems like a licensing issue.
    Did anyone faced this issue?
    Thanks for your help

    I have the exact same error on the log file. I even tried the "nuclear solution" with no more results...
    But as I tested the nuclear solution, I uninstalled Lightroom (which worked fine) and I've got the same issue, but I solved it by manually installing it (i.e without using the cc application) and it worked fine.
    The installer I used for ligthroom : https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom
    However, I can't get my hands on a similar installer for Photoshop CC.

    Purchased song plays for a few seconds then skips. The rest of the songs from the album play fine. Purchased 5 albums at once and all songs play except the one. I've looked for a way to report this and can't locate a link and I was unable to reload the song from the purchased link. I am using Windows Vista and Itunes 10.6.3.5
