Audio skipping distortions after upgrading to iTunes 7.5

Since I downloaded iTunes 7.5 all of my audio on my laptop has random distortions in it (sounds exactly like a prcessor glitch but isnt caused by that). It isn't corrected when I play media through other programs leading me to think that it wasnt iTunes at first. But after many hours of trying to see what else it could be (and that fact that this happened just after I had upgraded to itunes 7.5) I'm now sure that it must be the new iTunes.I found that if i converted my music to ACC through iTunes then it played correctly but this doesnt solve it messing up the sound on my DVD or windows media player and I can't convert any songs purchased through the music store.
(Have checked it's not my soundcard or CPU usage that's the problem)
Any suggestions?

I had the same horrible skipping problem. Here's what I did to correct it. You need to get itunes ver 6.0.5. My problem started when I upgraded to ver 7 and every version thereafter. First, backup your iTunes library of purchased songs. Get rid of all traces of iTunes ver 7 installation off your hard drive. Install iTunes ver 6.0.5 - then import your iTunes music (I found I had to also delete the two small library files that were created by the later versions of iTunes to be able to import and create the library for ver 6.0.5). After creating the library, all my purchased iTunes songs then appeared in iTunes. The first time I clicked on a song to play it a pop-up window appeared asking to authorize the song on this machine(my PC). I used the same ID and password that I always had used to purchase the iTunes originally. Then everything was great again. It took me a long time to figure out that an earlier version (pre ver 7) was the fix. By the way, prior to doing all the above, I had just re-installed WinXP on a blank hard drive. Hope this works for you - if it does don't ever click yes when the pop-up shows up in iTunes saying that a newer version is available.

Video stutters and audio is delayed after upgrading to iTunes 11

I'm having a major issue with video playback. The audio is about 10 seconds behind video playback. The audio also stutters. Is anyone else having this issue. SO ANNOYING!!!!

Solved it.
I had a program running in the background, which did not get picked up by MSCONFIG.
I looked at the services on CCCleaner and there they were, many instances of this program, slowing the
computer down and preventing other programs (including iTunes) from functioning.
Turned them all off, and iTunes and all other pgms work again.

After upgrade to iTunes 11 "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration"

After upgrading to iTunes 11 I have lost all sound on my PC running Windows XP. When I try to open iTunes I get the following message: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly." I have also lost sound when I attempt to listen to audio from a Website while in a browser session. I notice I have also lost the volume setting icon from the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen.
Please advise.

Something went wrong during the upgrade to iTunes 11. I have lost audio on my desktop PC running Windows XP. No sound in iTunes: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly." No sound during browser sessions. The volume control icon disappeared from the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen.
It seems that an audio driver(s) were damaged or deleted. When I go into the Control Panel and check the reading for the audio hardware, the entry for the DVD/CD-ROM drive says:
"Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device."
Please advise.

Hi iTunes-1,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The error message you posted indicates a possible firmware update is needed for iTunes for Windows to work with your CD drive.
iTunes for Windows: Updating the firmware on your CD or DVD drive - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201852
Having outdated firmware can cause issues using CDs and DVDs with iTunes for Windows. Firmware is a type of software stored in a chip in hardware that can sometimes be updated.Identifying drives and firmware versions
To run CD Diagnostics, follow the steps in this document.
After following the steps to run CD Diagnostics linked above, look at section three to find out more about your optical drive(s).
Here is an example of what section three might look like:
In this example there are two drives. Drive E is a Samsung DVD-ROM drive with a model designation of SD-616 that has firmware version F000. Drive F is an NEC drive with a model designation of NR-7900A that has firmware version 1.08.Updating the firmware
If the optical drive you are using came with your computer, check with the support site for your computer for a firmware update. Typically you will need to go to the support website for the computer maker and click on a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your computer model designation and operating system version to see what updates are available. Then look through the available updates for a firmware update for your optical drive. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of your computer.
If the optical drive you are using came as a separate part (was not included with a computer), check the support site for the drive maker for a firmware update. Sometimes the manufacturer is not clear in the CD Diagnostics results. In that case, you may just have to search the Internet for the drive model designation. You can usually find out who made the drive by looking through the results of such a search. Once you have identified who made your drive, go to the support website for that company. Look for a "downloads" or "updates" link, and then enter your optical drive model designation. Download the updater and run it. If you need assistance applying the update, contact the maker of the optical drive.Verifying that the firmware was updated
Run CD Diagnostics again.
Examine the CD Diagnostics results. The firmware version for the drive should be the new version.

Also, you mentioned that you have been successful burning a CD with the Windows OS. Make sure that you have closed all software programs that can access the CD burner so that there isn't a conflict for the drive. Sometimes chaning the burn speed from "maximum" to 8x can also help in this situation.
I hope this information helps ...

Some Ringtones Distorted After Upgrading to IOS 5

Has anyone else noticed that some of the ringtones sound distorted after upgrading to IOS 5? For example, Sherwood Forest is one of those ringtones. Please let me know if you have experience the same and what workaround, if any, has worked for you?

Not sure if this will help... I had problems playing almost everything and it behaved very erratically... Here was the solution that worked for me:
Altered from original solution from Emily P:
Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
in iTunes select the phone or iPad
Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
Sync
Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.
Now check them both back on, sync, and everything should copy back onto it.
Working now !!!!!

QuickTime in Safari cannot play video after upgrading to iTunes 10.2

After upgrading to iTunes 10.2 and QuickTime 10 on my MacBook Pro, the latest Quicktime version embedded in Safari is behaving strangely. When I want to play video on certain websites like " http://www.lynda.com/Aperture-3-tutorials/essential-training/59221-2.html ", the Quicktime logo on Safari browser appears and just sits there with sound only. I tried it on Firefox, the video can only be played on the lower part of my suddenly splitted screen, there is an "error" message on a Quicktime logo background.
Could anybody help me solve the problem. By the way, all these videos can be played normally on my Windows 7 desktop using both Firefox and Safari for Windows.

To make the matter more weird, the QuickTime plays normally on my Safari after I log out and switch to the administrator account of the MacBook Pro. When I change back to a normal account, the QuickTime error takes place again. It seems there must be something I configured wrongly.

After upgrading to itunes 10.5, and connecting ipad 2, message appears " IPAD cannot be used it requires itunes 10.5 or later. Go to itunes store and download the latest version." I am windows xp user.

After upgrading to Itunes 10.5 and connecting the IPAD. I get a following message. How do I resolve this issue. There is no other way to download itunes to ipad other than the itunes on your computer or laptop. I am a windows xp user.

Dear Mr. Sawyer,
To my surprise, the version is shown as 10.0.1.22. I will uninstall itunes and try loading the same again. After uninstalling do we need to delete any registry entries for Windows XP.
Thanks for your response and concern.

Anyone having issues with USB port power after upgrading to iTunes 11.1?

After upgrading to itunes 11.1, I can no longer use the USB ports on my wired keyboard to synch my iPhone 4s, ipod Nano, and Ipad 2. Previously, I could use this port to synch and charge the nano and iphone, and synch (but not charge) my iPad. Now I simply get an error when I attach any of the devices ("a usb device needs more power").
I currently use all four of the USB ports on the back of my imac (UPS power supply, aformentioned keyboard, a Lacie backup drive that has its own power supply, and a superdrive). Interestingly, when I unplug the Superdrive (which is plugged directly into the mac on a separate USB port), the USB port on the keyboard will work. Unplugging any of the other 2 devices does not allow the port on the to work.
I bought the wired keyboard to have the easily accessible UBS port to synch my nano as well as the fact I needed a number pad.

Get yourself a good self-powered 7 port USB hub to plug your extra devices into.

Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
Thanks!

Lost music files after upgrading to itunes 7

Hi, can someone please confirm whether or not my music files have been physically deleted from my computer after upgrading to itunes 7. Many of the songs in my playlist, including MOST of the songs purchased through itunes come up with the error that the original file can't be found. I've done searches and can't come up with the files.
I want to know if they are indeed gone.
I realize that you click "I agree" to the agreement before installing and as of now this "contract" has held up. However, we'll see how well it holds up when offered software is knowingly removing personal files. I'm sure that if someone were to write a virus that destroys your computer, if it had a warning message with an "I agree" button, it would be a very difficult contract to stand by.
To my recollection, no software in the past has physically removed personal files from your harddrive on install.
So, I don't think a precedence has been set for this kind of class action.

and we refresh.

Lost iTunes Library after upgrading to iTunes 7.7 HELP PLEASE

I have two issues on hand : after upgrading to iTunes 7.7 I opened iTunes and all of my music was gone except for about 1,000+ songs (3.2 GB) when I originally had about 20GB worth of songs. How can I recover my full library into iTunes ?
Second issue: when importing new CDs into iTunes 7.7 it only plays a fraction of each song before moving on to another song, whereas iTunes shows that I have the full song imported.
I really appreciate someone's help here, and does the latest version of iTunes have a bug ??

Further to my last post, I find that the purchased songs have been retained in the iTunes Library of my Mac Book - is there any way iI can restore them to the iMac?

After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, unable to type in text/search fields

Hi,
After upgrading to iTunes 9.2, I am unable to type into text or search fields within iTunes.
Haven't tried all fields, but I've seen it in both search in iTunes and the iTunes store, and also trying to create folders on my iPhone (through iTunes only, it works fine on the phone).
Anyone else seen this or have an idea for a fix?
Thanks...

I'm wondering if you figured out this problem. I'm having the exact same issue, which means I can't even log in to my iTunes account. I've even tried uninstalling it and reverting to iTunes 9.1.1, which then won't even open.

After upgrading to itunes 7.3.1.3 I can't run the backup to dics anymore.

After upgradeing to itunes 7.3.1.3.1 I can not run the backup any more. Also the CD burning runs very slow.
The DVD burner run ok with other software.
After it checks for file to be backed up it kept ejecting the blank DVD and asking for a blank disc.
I have even replaced the DVD drive with drive from another computer.I also reinstalled ITUNES once-- It ran as a repair during the install.

I have used this same DVD Burner to backup my list from within iTunes before. I did this back in June just after I purchase 30 songs. I think I was running version 7.1 or 7.2 when the DVD backup worked. If not sopport then why does their diagnostics say DVD/CD Diagnostics. Even so I have the same problem on my other PC with a CD Burner. I think Apple support sound a little like Microsoft. I once had a problem with Windows NT and had to call MS support 5 times before they said their software had a defect and issued a patch.

Problems after upgrading to iTunes version 6

Hello,
I've been going through the threads a lot since I have had problems after upgrading to iTunes v. 6. It looks like a lot of people have had the same issues, and I have tried some things that were recommended. After I upgraded, iTunes would not open. I tried:
1. deleting sidb file
2. doing the msconfig thing suggested in discussion boards
3. going into safe mode and deleting 4 and 6 letter weird files in DOS - I found 3 that I deleted
iTunes worked after this -- then I bought a song and it said my computer was not authorized, after I authorized computer (that never happened before), iTunes worked for about 15 more minutes and then closed down abruptly. I haven't been able to open it since.
I also downloaded Spybot search & destroy and that did not find anything. I am using McAfee, and have scanned for viruses with McAfee and AdAware.
Now, when I restart my computer, a bunch of windows pop up with Chinese/Japanese looking characters and say that device (I think) was not found. I seem to be able to use everything except iTunes and Quicktime. When I open the Task Manager, iPodService.exe and iTunesHelper.exe and qttask.exe are there, but when I click on Quicktime or iTunes the file flashes in Task Manager and then disappears.
I'm not sure where to go from here.
Any help would be apppreciated -- I'd like to be able to open iTunes!

Hello,
I used Nickroo's post:
I was able to get iTunes launched (with the help of Tech Support) in a very unsafe environment. I owe it to those who may need this after me. It will get you going, but you will be extremely vulnerable to internet virus assaults. Please do not use this approach, until you have exhausted every other available solution for your issue in the KB.
There are three Steps 1) Uninstall 2) Disble and 3) Reinstall.
UNISTALL Uninstall iTunes using Windows utility Add Remove Program available in Control Panel.
DISABLE Disable all third party System Services and Startup Items using using MSCONFIG utility as described in Service Document http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
RE-INSTALL Re-install iTunes6 + QT7. Launch it under the Selective Startup Option.
It worked ! You realize among other things at this point you have your Antivirus and Firewall disabled. When I started my computer in the Normal Startup Option, iTunes fails to work again. So I have ahead of me the long and ardous task of ruling out the service that is causing conflict with iTunes6. Then work with the software vendor to arrive at a solution.
This seems to have worked so far- I haven't started to go through ruling out what made iTunes not work; I also haven't tried to connect my iPod or burn a CD, so we'll see.

TS2972 Home Sharing with ATV stopped working after upgrade to iTunes 11

After upgrading to iTunes 11, my two PCs are no longer visible to Apple TV or the iOS Remote App. I went through all the steps in "Troubleshooting Home Sharing" http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972 without success. In additions, I tried:
Turning Home Sharing off, then on again on both PCs
Re-created Firewall rules for iTunes
Ran a factory reset on Apple TV
Disabled iPV6 on the network adapter, based on a blogger's fix for an iTunes 10 problem
Some other observations:
Home Sharing was working with Apple TV an hour before I ran the updates for iTunes 11 and Apple TV.
The Apple TV and iOS Remote App are working together, so the network settings must be correct.
The PCs in question are running Window 8 Pro 64-bit and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
The two PCs can see eachother's iTunes.
It seems likely this is an iTunes 11 issue, but upgrading ATV2 at the same time clouds the diagnostics.
I was just about to order two more Apple TVs, but now have second thoughts now that my ATV2 is just a doorstop.
Any suggestions?

You are not alone with issues related to the e1000e (but all they concluded was that reloading the module makes it work again):
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=145564
It seems like this is more your issue:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux. … devel/8932
But if none of those boot flags work for you, then there's not much you can do, and you'll have to write a script to reload the module each time after initial boot finishes I guess until the module gets fixed.
Also, power management of the PCIe interface causes the e1000e to shut off after a while as well (lots of people on CentOS noticing this):
http://serverfault.com/questions/226319 … ie-aspm-do
So you can use that boot parameter to stop that from happening, if that becomes an issue for you as well.
