AirTunes Goes Silent After Track Change

Hello all,
I've had a long-standing issue with my Airport Express, and I'm wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue.
While streaming music to my AirTunes speakers, the music will go sometimes go silent after a track change.
For example, I'll be listening to an album. Track 1 will play. Track 2 will play. Then iTunes will switch to Track 3, and the sound stops. iTunes itself continues normally, with the time ticking away and the scrubber/timeline moving as it should. There's no error message, and if I restart the track by clicking the back button or double clicking the track in the list, it will play and stream normally.
I don't think it's a network dropout issue, since when the sound it coming through, it's perfect. And I've never noticed a similar problem when playing through my speakers. (Oh, there it goes it again! I'm streaming as I'm writing this.) I've just confirmed that once the sound stops, it stays off through any subsequent track changes.
This issue has survived several Airport firmware and iTunes version upgrades.
Does this sound familiar to anyone else?

  • Has anyone experienced text going missing after using Change All in the Find Font dialogue box?

    I manage an artwork production studio and two members of staff have separately reported that when using the Change All command to substitute fonts in InDesign's Find Font dialogue box, some text disappears from their documents. All affected text is originally set in the same font, and most of the conversion is fine but a few instances of text are actually removed (not reflowed). In the latest reported case, only four or five instances of text were 'deleted' across two pages of a 20pp document.
    I've found a link that refers to the same issue but it's unresolved (http://www.listsearch.com/InDesign/Thread/index.lasso?20041#last)
    I haven't been able to replicate this behaviour but would be interested to know if anyone else has experienced it and if so, under what circumstances it can occur, and what work-rounds or fixes are available.
    Applies to InDesign CS3 and CS4, have not tested with CS5 because we haven't upgraded yet.

    Joel, I am having the same problem you described. I have read of similar posts on PrintPlanet.com. Someone there thought it was a different text engine or something in CS4 which may be causing the problem.
    I don't know what causes this but I believe it can be traced to a previously created file in CS3 is saved as a CS4 document.
    The fonts associated with this problem for me are always Gill Sans, Palatino and some form of Helvetica. There may be others but these are the ones we notice the most.
    Today I worked on an InDesign CS4 file. When I opened it I was given a missing font warning. I went to Find Font and it was different typefaces of Gill Sans that was missing. When I changed the missing font to Gill Sans Regular entire lines of text disappeared. I closed the document without saving it and reopened it. I did the same thing in replacing fonts. This time no text disappeared. Not reflowed; not white; not hidden—gone.
    This is what I have been seeing for the past few months. The disappearing text is random and cannot be duplicated, though fonts may disappear in some other place. You never know where text will just disappear.
    The workaround I have found is to export your file to an INX document and reopen it in CS3. You have to replace all missing text before saving it as INX, though. To my knowledge CS3 has never had this happen.
    The workaround, though it works for me, is annoying. I'd like to know what to do to resolve this issue. What's the use in having CS4 if you can't trust it completely.
    I use a Mac running 10.6.3. I also have running Suitcase Fusion 2.

  • Word doc track changes in RH

    i need help working out why all my track changes in a word
    doc that i have uploaded to RH, show up!!!!
    its a real mess. the changes have been accepted so the word
    doc is clean but then they all show up in RH.
    any ideas?

    I don't want to revise the document after track changes. My point is; when I finished my track changes and sent the document off for the other person to see the changes I have made, they can't see any markings, just the revised text (that had been changed
    via track changes) It automatically changes without anyone excepting any changes I have made.

  • Airtunes plays two songs then goes silent

    After playing two songs using airtunes the volume cuts out on both the computer and the remote speaker while itunes continues to play the songs albeit silently. To reinitiate the audio I have to select a new track.
    The iMac I am streaming from uses airport to connect to multiple airport n enabled base stations that use the same name so that it picks the base station with the strongest signal strength. All of these base stations are networked together using gigabyte ethernet so the route to the particular airport express i'm streaming to varies.

    Hi, I have the same problem since a few months. Note that this does not only affect airtunes devices. Also my default line-out goes silent. It happens completely random. Sometimes after 1 track sometimes after 20 tracks or anything in between.
    Pausing and unpausing the currently (silent) playing track also makes it audible again.
    Strangly if a silent track is playing all the next songs in queue play silent. Unless you skip or pause the song...
    odd.

  • Audio Tracks are silent after Narration PE12

    Audio Tracks are silent after Narration. Mixer is at 0.0dB on all channels. Audio plays fine when double clicked but is silent when played back on timeline. Narration is fine. Any ideas as to what's happening and how to correct this?

    What you described is a known issue with Premiere Elements 12/12.1. I have not been able to reproduce the problem which has been encountered by
    several. But....
    Please read about the fix offered by Llamadude99. That specific fix as well as modifications of it have resolved this problem for several.

  • Long waiting times when going back to the organizer after doing changes of images. Elements 11.

    After doing changes of images and going back to the organizer I have to wait a long time. This was not the case when I used elements 9. I have a lot of images stored around 18000. There are also often long waiting times when I move around in the organizer. Any suggestion?

  • Change Track Change Author after Review Complete

    In a Word 2010 report, various reviewers have worked on their individual sections so track changes shows their individual names.
    Now the client wants no individual name but company initials instead.
    Can I somehow make that change from my computer? If they open the doc on their computer and make the change individually, is there a way to update that information?
    Thanks!

    You could do that with a macro, such as:
    Sub Demo()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim StrUser As String, StrCompany As String, i As Long, Rng As Range, RngMv As Range, bTrk As Boolean
    StrUser = Application.UserName: StrCompany = "My Company"
    Application.UserName = StrCompany
    With ActiveDocument
      On Error Resume Next
      bTrk = .TrackRevisions
      .TrackRevisions = True
      For i = 1 To .Revisions.Count
        Set Rng = .Revisions(i).Range
        With .Revisions(i)
          If .Author <> StrCompany Then
            If .Type = wdRevisionDelete Then
              .Reject
              Rng.Delete
            End If
            If .Type = wdRevisionInsert Then
              Rng.Copy
              Rng.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
              .Reject
              Rng.Paste
            End If
          End If
        End With
      Next
      For i = .Revisions.Count To 1 Step -1
        Set Rng = .Revisions(i).Range
        With .Revisions(i)
          If .Author <> StrCompany Then
            If .Type = wdRevisionMovedFrom Then
              Set RngMv = .MovedRange
              .Reject
              Rng.Cut
              RngMv.Paste
            End If
          End If
        End With
      Next
      .TrackRevisions = bTrk
    End With
    Application.UserName = StrUser
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub
    The above macro deals with insertions, deletions and moves. There are numerous other revision types that might also need to be dealt with - I'll leave it to your organization to code for them. Change 'My Company' to whatever name you want to use.

  • Audition CC: Playback works fine and then suddenly goes silent?

    Audition has been working fine until just now. When I hit the spacebar/play button, it will play normally for a while and then suddenly go silent. The tracker keeps moving and the timer keeps going but there is no sound. Occasionally, the sound comes back on. Also, if I pause it once it goes silent, wait a few seconds, and then hit play, it starts working again, but will then go silent later on.
    Any idea what is going on?
    I am using earbuds, if that helps at all.
    Thanks,

    This sounds frighteningly like a problem I had--except I described it as sounding like an old 78 record rather than tape.
    What interface and driver are you using?
    In my case, the problem was intermittent but gradually became more frequent.  It also occurred in Premiere Pro and, in that programme it eventually became almost every time.
    In desperation, I finally tried changing the device class of my interface (an M Audio M Track) to MME and the problem immediately went away, pointing the finger very much at the ASIO drivers I'd been using.  However, these had been rock solid for ages (and not changed) so I put it down to a problem between the drivers and one of the all-to-frequent Windows "updates".
    Fortunately, the latency issues of MME weren't an issue for me--I have a different interface for multitrack work.
    However, the kicker in this tail is that, a couple of weeks ago (after a few more Windows updates) the problem suddenly went away (I'd also reinstalled the ASIO driver but, as I'd done that before, dunno if that played a role).
    Anyway, long and convoluted, but it might be worth trying MME even if only as an experiment.  If that fixes it, a bug report to your interface manufacturer might be in order.

  • I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    Im not sure what garage band is, but i can tell you the way apple recommends making ringtones. Highlight a song in iTunes, right click and select get info. Goto the options tab and youll see the time lengths (write down the ending time) for the start time type in where you want the ringtone to start, ringtones can only be 30 sec long so make the ending time 30 sec later. Exit it out of the info and while song highlighted goto the "advanced" tab at the top of iTunes where you will see an option that says "create aac version". after creating the aac version you will have a duplicate song in your iTunes, change the original back to the correct time length. Take the 30 sec aac version and drag it to your desktop, right click the icon and click "preferences" You will then be able to change the name of the file which will be somethign to the effect of "songnamehere.m4a" you just change the m4a to m4r. you now have a ringtone, drag the new file to iTunes where it will pop up in a new tab labled ringtones. If you cannot change the name of the file when it is on your desktop let me know and i will give you instuctions how to be able to change it. Once you get it figured out you can use any song you have on iTunes to make a ringtone.

  • Tabs glitching out, videos going silent

    Sometimes when I close a tab, the next tab it changes to will glitch out and have a few artifacts of the website I was just on. For instance, I can have a Google.com tab and a Youtube video in another. if I close the youtube video and go to the google tab, some of the objects from the youtube tab will appear on the google tab.
    As for the videos going silent, this is mainly youtube. When I'm watching a video and want to skip forward, the video will act as if it's pause. The pause button will change to have the play symbol instead, but won't change back to pause when I click it. The video will continue to play and the audio will be completely mute. The only way to fix that has been, so far, to close and reopen the tab. So far, it mostly occurs when I go fullscreen.
    I'll try and get a picture of the first problem, but the second problem is so random, I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything to show.

    Did the glitches just start recently? Firefox 33 introduced a new feature called "Off Main Thread Compositing" (OMTC). There is a preference to disable this feature if you want to try that. You might need to exit and start Firefox up again after making the change.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''layer''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled''' preference to switch it from true to false.
    Any difference?
    Regarding the YouTube videos, are these playing in the Flash player plugin or in Firefox's built-in HTML5 player? Usually you can distinguish them by the right-click menu for the player: Adobe's plugin has a distinctive short context menu instead of Firefox's standard right-click context menu.

  • 6120 problems, phone goes silent

    I bought a 6120 claasic, the camera didnt work and the phone kept going into a silent mode , i returned it and nokia gladly replaced it for me with a new 6120.
    the problem im having with the new 6120 is same as the 1st one, after the phone sits for a while it goes silent, no keypad tones, ringtone or any sound, so i cant hear if people are ringing me or i am recieving a message, i have to restart the phone to fix the problem, im not changing any of my profiles in the phone like to slinent or anything else
    i have updated my software in the phone, i'm wondering if anybody else has had this problem or is it a fault with this particular model, it just seems strange that 2 brand new phones do the same thing
    thanks

    Yes, this is normal behaviour. You can silence an incoming call without rejecting it by pressing either of the volume buttons, or the sleep/wake button. In addition, if you quickly press the sleep/wake button twice, iPhone will reject the incoming call.
