7.6.2 stutters on some known good songs then Date Modified field is updated

Hi All,
I've just noticed some very peculiar behavior in my 7.6.2 iTunes library on my Leopard MacBook. While clicking around on some songs in my library (~51,000 songs) directly, iTunes will hesitate (ie stutter) at the beginning of the song and then resume playing it. This does not occur on every song in my library though, and appears to repeat itself say on 80% of my songs, now. Occurs in playlists, as well.
I remembered that by adding album art to an album (a manual cut and paste job) to a selection of files while one is playing...and when that particular file gets updated with the bitmap...that I would hear a similar stutter.
So, I opened a Finder window to view an actual file before I clicked it in iTunes. Sure enough, on a stuttering song, the Date Modified field in iTunes and date/time stamp of the file in Finder get updated with the Current Day time. I have no idea what would cause that file to be changed ! Plus, this does not happen with every song.
I do have numerous Smart Playlists and several AppleScripts, but when this occurs, I'm not actively running any of these.
Anyone have any ideas on this...and I thank you for your help and ideas....

itunes 7.6.2
I had the same annoying problem: iTunes would hesitate at the beginning of a song and then resume playing it. This affected ALL tracks in my 17,000+ library. No quarter.
My fix was to uncheck crossfade playback in preferences. I have never used sound check nor sound enhancer so those boxes remained unchecked.
Worked for me and ALL tracks play now with no stutter.
Hope this helps some.

  • Some of my songs won't play after I updated to iOS 7

    Before I updated my phone to iOS 7 all of my music was playing normally, but after I updated there are several songs that are not playing. When I look at them in the music app, it won't let me click on the song and on the right side there is a red square with a red circle surrounding it.

    I encountered the same problem yesterday and found the solution after seeing this same issue posted on Apple support over multiple dates since September. I followed the advice of one commenter and did a restore procedure of the iphone and that solved the issue. The commenter provided a link to a non-apple web site and the instructions differed only slightly from Apple's instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. I can't find the original advice or that site right now but here's what I did:
    1. ensured that only the usb end of my sync cable was attached to my computer with itunes open.
    2. held the home and top buttons down simultaneously on my untethered iPhone to power it off.
    3. Keeping my finger on the home phone only, connected the iPhone to the other end of the sync cable that was connectd to my computer (fyi, I use a macbook pro and back up everthng to iCloud)
    4. the warning message came up in iTunes about are you sure you want to restore all your media and other data (on the phone) will be erased.  You can click cancel or restore; I chose restore. It took a while but all my apps, photos and music returned to my iPhone without the red circles with red squares on some tracks.
    Background:  I updated to ios 7 back in September with no problems.  Yesterday, I imported new digital audio to my itunes library and then went to sync, it appeared that I was way over capacity on my iphone.  I tried removing pictures and apps I don't use. That brought memory down, but the sync would not correct the red circle/squre issue of certain tracks in my music on my iPhone.  These files played fine in iTunes on the computer.  On the Apple thread where I found the advice that I've posted that worked, that person had spoken to an Apple person on the phone who believed that a file must have gotten corrupted on the iPhone and recommended the restore. I think the same happened to me.  The new digital audio files which I had imported into iTunes were mp3s which worked fine in iTunes, but must have gotten corrupted during the first sync. I converted to aac and shrunk to 128, but whenever I tried to sync, things looked normal (except for a diagnostic message) but the waiting to copy took way to long and when things finally started to copy, it was so slow that he sync just quit on its own.  THEN I noticed that all the music that had the red circle/squares were files that I had originally put into iTunes from CDs - so, music not purchased via iTunes.  These were imported quite a while back. Fortunately, they were all backed up to the cloud and restore of the iPhone worked.  All that music is back and I don't get the diagnostic message or slow wait and quit problem now.

  • Prime Infrastructure 2.0 "Wrong CLI Credentials" error with known good credentials

    In the device work center sometimes devices show up with "wrong CLI credentials". Even when I change to known good SSH credentials and click the update & sync button the error does not go away.
    Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know a workaround?
    It seems absurd that you would not be able to edit the SSH credentials of devices.

    ok, tried all that was said here. Nothing worked ... I do have banners, but no # sign ... removed them anyways ... then thinking about the banners might be causing issues for what PI expects ... (i do have my prompts changed to mask the platform) ... so i defaulted back to regular prompts ... WORKED !!!!
    So here is what works for me ... no banners, no custom prompts AND device added through the 'classic theme'.
    I presume the expectation is that the device begins with minimal config ... the rest is pushed through the config templates deployment. But have the developers thought of existing devices ? is it IOS version related (target device) or simply a bug.
    BTW, PI v2.1
    Edit --- needing to clarify, for some models (namely UC520) ... removed banner, custom prompts and i could add it comfortably through the Lifecycle interface.
    Others (3550), could be inserted easily with banners and custom prompts ... rather inconsistent, though at least , i have working recipes.
    Thanks for the help all :)

  • Any way to set aside a "known good" iPhone backup?

    I've had lots of trouble with my 3G iPhone crashing irreversibly and needing a restore. Tonight Apple gave me a new phone- maybe that will solve it, but in the meantime, after four full restores, I really want a way to preserve a "known good" backup.
    Every time I've restored, I've had to go back farther in time than I wanted to. iTunes gives me a choice of multiple backup dates, but I've found there's only a couple that are very recent, and they're typically suspect.
    Is there any way to trick iTunes into preserving a particular backup version? As I understand it, renaming the iPhone won't do this. Can I duplicate and set aside some SyncServices folder and then replace it when I want to roll back to the known-good version?
    I've been through a lot of iPhone 2.0 suffering here, and it would be nice to improve my odds for the future....

    I've been able to get out of a bind by doing backups every so often on more than one computer. With the previous version iPhone, I had a few times when one backup was corrupted so I went in and used the backup from another computer that was about a week old. Just lost a few SMS messages and that weeks phone logs but nothing too important.
    Hopefully someone else will have other ideas as well.

  • WARNING: No "known good" pasword found in LDAP

    I'm trying to get windows client (EAP-PEAP MSCHAPv2) to authenticate through freeRadius. I have eDirectory as user store. I've configured universal password and assigned the policy to respective OUs in eDir. I configured universal password policy to allow to retrieve cleartet password by users and "radmin" account, as per Novell docs. iManager RADIUS plugin is also installed, eDir RADIUS schema is extended, radius profile is applied to some users for testing (although no radius attributes are specified in that Radius profile, as Novell docs don't mention anything about it).
    However, is looks like eDirectory is still not returning user's clear-text password in its LDAP reply to freeRadus server, the following warning appears in radius debug log: (WARNING: No "known good" password found in LDAP).
    I followed this Novell guide to setup eDir and freeRadius: https://www.netiq.com/documentation/...ata/front.html
    Here is my radius ldap config:
    ldap TEST {
    server = "192.168.1.1"
    port = 636
    identity = "cn=radmin,ou=USERS,o=TEST"
    password = "password"
    basedn = "ou=USERS,o=TEST"
    filter = "(uid=%{%{Stripped-User-Name}:-%{User-Name}})"
    #base_filter = "(objectclass=radiusprofile)"
    auto_header = yes
    ldap_connections_number = 5
    timeout = 4
    timelimit = 3
    net_timeout = 1
    tls {
    # start_tls = yes
    tls_mode = yes
    cacertfile = /etc/raddb/certs/test-tree.b64
    dictionary_mapping = ${confdir}/ldap.attrmap
    password_attribute = nspmPassword
    edir_account_policy_check = no
    set_auth_type = no
    # access_attr = dialupAccess
    keepalive {
    idle = 60
    probes = 3
    interval = 3
    #END
    Any suggestions on fixing the problem are welcomed. Thanks in advance.

    log doesn't seem display any errors, also I notices that the "nspm password" is is mentioned twice. As far as I know the n="nspm password" attribute is the clear text password. Also From the log i can see that all attributes are the request from radius, would be good to see actual eDir ldap reply in the log, including reply attributes. Any suggestions?

  • Ways an attacker might start malware with a known good service

    How would an attacker be able to get malware started at the same time a legitimate, known good service is started? I am consulting on trying to fix a server that has a service starting and using the tool StealthWatch, we can see that the service is
    shown as running TCP scans of blocks of network addresses. I have compared the MD5 hash of the service to a known good copy of the same service on another server and they are the same, so I pretty confident that the service itself is not changed. I see no
    dependencies for the service and other testing I have done is testing using sigcheck.exe to validate that the service is signed and also checked the signature all of the files in the same directory where the service is located.
    What techniques have you seen that can be used to run malware along with a legitimate service?

  • 13" white Macbook will not power on with known good battery

    Macbook will not attempt to power on with a known good battery that shows full charge.  Also, when Magsafe plugged in, there is no indication (no green or amber light) it is connected.  This charger does work with another Macbook (same kind).
    I have checked the Magsafe/port for any dust & debris, and have followed the tips listed in the FAQ's for a macbook with no power.  As I said, the battery & charger both work in another Macbook.
    Suggestions please!

    Hi Stephanie. It could be a logic board issue or simply the power button at this point (let's hope its the latter). Can you give us more info on how this happened? Did the computer suddenly shut down or was it stored and unused for quite some time?
    Without any power, and with you making sure both the battery and and charger is working, then I would suggest bringing it in to the Apple Store.

  • ICloud flags known good email as junk!

    For the past few months, iCloud mail has frequently flagged known good email as junk. In all cases, the messages that are flagged are from correspondents who have been sending me messages for years without any problem. Now, all of a sudden, iCloud thinks these messages are junk—and continues to flag them as junk no matter how many times I tell iCloud that they are "not junk".
    I also see that Apple offers iCloud tech support only to those whose computers are still in warranty. What's with that?! No email support, no nothing.
    Suggestions appreciated.

    - Add the thumbs down button to your mail toolbar as other commenters have noted (View>Customize Toolbar).
    - Open your junk mail folder and find one of the messages that should not have been marked as junk.
    - Hit the "Thumbs Down" button.
    - A banner will appear at the top of the message preview window that says "You marked this a junk mail."
    - In that banner will be a "Not Junk" button.
    Contrary to Apple's principle, this is not very intuitive, and it places the blame/responsibility for the mis-categorization back on the user ("YOU marked..."). However, this method does work to keep future messages like the ones you've unmarked from landing in your Junk folder.

    So your not a student or alumni?
    It is that Kerberos for SMTP that gets me. That requires a token server to be .
    Try the It people with how to you connect your computer to the issuing trust tokens

  • Suddenly all my iOS devoices refuse to connect to all my known good networks

    Weeks ago I upgraded my iPhone, iPad and iPad Mini to iOS7 (and the subsequent updates). All was well. This morning all three devices refuse to connect to both of my known good WiFi networks (known good because everything else connected to them is fine).
    The symptom: Settings:, Wi-Fi: I select my network and the 'grey ball' starts to spin. But... it never makes a connection. The grey ball spins forever, never making a connection nor reporting an error. Both networks are totally seperate Airport Express devices. In pursuit of this problem I have completely reset and reconfigured one of them, no solution.
    Attempted so far: Network Reset on all three devices. Nothing. Reboots on all three, nothing. A hard reset, nothing. A total delete and restore of the iPad both via iTunes 11.1 and standalone, nothing.
    All three devices can make cellular connections just fine.
    I am really running out of ideas here - any pointers would be most welcome.

    Ok, after a very energetic and impressive response from Apple I found the answer - thank you Apple.
    Reboot the Router! Yes... it did'nt make sense to me. Something to do with DHCP leases, the Aiprports use DHCP assigned IP addresses that are issued by the router. Rebooting the Router forced the leases to renew, and bingo, problem solved. If I have the problem again I may put the Airports on fixed IP addresses to see if the issue goes away.

  • 8320 won't boot up, even with known good battery

    Hi Guys, my first post, hope you can help me.
    I've got an 8320 which died last night, initially suspected a dead battery so have changed it this morning for one that is known to be good, as its from my other phone where it shows fully charged.
    With the known good battery in the suspected faulty phone I get a bettery symbol with a red line through it.
    Is it worth trying to reinstall the software or is it a hardware issue ?
    If its worth doing the software how do I go about it ?
