Feature request : Crossfade when skipping to next song ...

Hello,
Is there any feature request area for iTunes ? I really love the program and think it is great. I would like to request implementation of crossfading between songs when hitting the next song button. This is the only reason I still have to use my winamp from time to time. Almost every other player has this feature or a plugin that has.
It is really anoying when we have some friends over or a party at home and you want to skip to the next song. The cold transition really cools down everyone ...
Hoping this will be implemented !
Greetings

ITunes stutters when skipping to next song

When I hit the Next-button, the playback of the current song stops, but before the next song starts I can hear for a very short while (less than a second) the current song again. So that's what I mean by "stuttering". When I let iTunes play and it goes "naturally" to the next song, the problem isn't there.
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes and the most recent drivers for my sound card. In other mediaplayers like Windows Media Player or Winamp, the playback is okay so this seems to be an iTunes problem?
What can it be?

Loud noise when skip to next song

Nano makes a loud noise when I switch to the next song. It happens with songs that I have lowered the volume on in iTunes. Is there a fix? Thanks.

You can't do that with iTunes. Believe me, I like that functionality, and I've tried. The closest thing is to have the mini player on top so you can click on the next track button with your mouse pointer.
There is a music player I like to use, however, that you CAN do it with. No pressure to use it though. It's called XMPlay and available free at un4seen.com. Reply again if you need me to walk you through that.

Using skip to next song when set to repeat song

I use repeat one song quite a bit, but am not able to use the forward side of the click wheel to skip to the next song in my playlist. Is this a limitation of the repeat setting?
Thanks for your help.

For a level 5 editor that is the worst response. Unspecific and simply unhelpful.
Perhaps your problem with me is because you have yet to undertsand how this support community works. (I'm referring also, to the other post you added to.) You need to take into account that my "level" does not indicate training by Apple, or anyone else. Nor is it a recognition by Apple of my abilities. That "level" has been gained because other users (which is what I am, a user of Apple products, just like you) have marked my response to their question as having been helpful or as solving their issue.
Frankly, I think you and I have got off on the wrong foot, and I suspect that wound will never be healed.
However, despite that...
If a song is being played on "repeat one", then selecting the "next" button will take it forward to the start of the next track/song, which is the track that has been playing. You've set it to repeat one, so that's what it will do. If it worked some other way in the past, then I suggest that was wrong - a bug - which Apple have now fixed.
So as far as I can see, there is no problem. If you believe I'm wrong, then let's hope one of the other more experienced contributors will jump in and correct me. That will be fine by me.
Alternatively, you can send Feedback to Apple by going to http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html .

Nano 6G: When I play next song, an extremely loud sound will play for 0.3 sec.

I am extremely annoyned to the fact that when I play music on my iPod Nano 6G (The small one with touch feature), I will play next song by double clicking sleep button then suddenly an an EXTREMELY LOUD DEADLY SOUND will play as if the iPod wants to kill my eardrums. This happens in 1:500 ratio I guess. Did anyone experience this before? I tried playing the song with iTunes, Media Player and other players then I click NEXT to try if it happens but not.

Oh sorry - just answered my own question - somehow the songs were marked "Skip on shuffle" (went to "Get Info" for all songs, under Options....not sure how they got marked that way, but the issue seems to be resolved on both Mac and iPhone....

Bought album and it downloaded in iTunes but it only plays partial of first song and then skips to next song in album, help?

Well I bought the Bring Me The Horizon album There Is A **** Believe Me I've Seen It, There Is A Heaven Let's Keep It A Secret on my iPhone and it synced to iTunes on my laptop. The entire album was downloading however when the first song was starting download it displayed an error message and I quickly pressed okay and disregarded it. The rest of the album resumed download and completed. I then went up to the download button next to the search input in the upper right hand corner and finished download for the rest of the song. When I went to listen to the album I was in a minute into the first song, "Crucify Me," and it skipped to the second song in the album, "It Never Ends." I tried playing it over and opening and re-opening iTunes but it still persists to skip the first song a minute in... so it appears to be a partial download. I mean, I have the album downloaded on my iPhone (this was the original site of purchase and download) but currently I am not in a state to do anything with that because my USB cable broke so my phone's been dead for the past few days and I'm waiting until tomorrow to get one with my father, I'm just a 14 year old girl afterall. I need a quick fix for this error and soon, preferably one without needing my iPhone because I want to listen to this album tonight and make sure it's all in order (and so I know what to do for future reference in case this happens again.) Please let me know your suggestions on resolving this issue. - Taylor
P.S. I've inserted a picture of what my iTunes looks like just in case it might help, which I doubt, but it might. Also please don't judge the Blood On The Dance Floor albums... I went through a phase that involved **** music.

Song downloaded from iTunes plays fine in iTunes, but only first 15 seconds will play on iPod then skips to next song?

Songs that I download from iTunes play ok in iTunes. On iPod classic though, SOME (but not ALL) of these downloaded songs will only play for 15 seconds or so before it skips to the next song. It is random in that some songs off the same album will do this, but others not. Any ideas?

Try this Hard Reset
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Test the sound again.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

If these songs are in MP3 format, google and download MP3 Validator and run through songs in the library.
Good Luck!

Songs keep skipping to next song

I have a iPod nano 8gb. Why is it when i am listening to a song it jumps to the next song for three or more songs. What options do i have enable or disable.

I, too, am having this problem as of two updates ago. It' been like this for about two weeks now. Music stops, songs skip like I'm using an old CD player and went over a bump - just abruptly stopping/changing to the next song. I've also noticed VERY clear and sudden changes in song quality while streaming, it's a bit jarring.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4. I'm in the Phoenix, AZ area, and I'm using T-Mobile.
I have tried the following:
Restart phone
Clear data
Uninstall and reinstall
Lower streaming quality
I've noticed this seems to only happen on streamed songs.. downloaded ones are OK. Everything was fine until the update that changed the 'Your Music' section :(
Edit: Wifi works fine.. It seems to either be a) streaming over T-Mobile or b) how Spotify handles streaming/slow connections/whatever has changed in a recent update. Can past and future repliers include their mobile carrier to see if there's a trend?

Itunes plays song for 10 seconds then skips to next song and so on....

Hey Everyone
I recently acquired a macbook (love it). However I have one issue, I imported all my music off my windows formatted ipod, and then formatted my Ipod for Mac. Everything plays fine, however I have one major issue. Some (not all) of the songs in itunes play for about 10 seconds and then jump to the next song. if I skip ahead past this 10 second barrier, the song plays fine . This happens on my itunes as well as my ipod.
Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated

now when i play back in itunes (v10.6.1)
Doublechecking ... do you still get that if you update to iTunes 10.6.3.25?

Only half of some iTunes Matched songs on my iPhone will play, then audio skips to next song in playlist!

Several (maybe 5%) of iTunes Matched songs on my iPhone do this... at EXACTLY 1/2 way through the song.
EXAMPLE: At 2:25 of a 4:50 long song (Shania Twain - From This Moment) the next song in playlist (Taylor Swift - Tim McGraw) starts as the audio skips to beginning of next song in playlist. Oddly, Shania's attractive album artwork and title stays up while Taylor's tune plays (?)
When the timeline for the first Shania song hits the end, the artwork slides to Taylor Swift's CD Cover art and the timer slider adjusts to near the end of that song.
When I play same songs on the same playlist on iTunes (also downloaded from iTunes Match) this does not occur.
Does anyone else see this happen or are there any suggestions?
THANKS

Hey Guys, from my late model iPhone 4, I am also seeing my iTunes Match songs terminate playing very abruptly ...some won't play at all ...others skip to the next track after 10 seconds.
I checked the source files on my iMAC, and they are 100 percent perfect.
Tried deleting them, recreating them, signing out and then back into iTunes with Match On & Off, etc ...still no resolution to these problems.
Maybe the MATCH product is crashing under it's own weight now? It used to be good, but now I am not so sure anymore.
Please post if you have any solution or suggestions.
Thanks!

Audio playback randomly freezes on iPod, skips to next song in iTunes.

When I'm listening to music on my iPod, at a random point in certain songs the audio will suddenly cut out, the play progress bar and time keeper will freeze, and yet the icon indicates that the song is still playing. When listening to those songs through iTunes, at the same points rather than freezing up, it will simply skip to the next song, similar to what it would do if I had edited the options to make the song end sooner than it normally would. I have gone through these songs and checked that option under the "get info" menu and the song end time has not been altered. What has happened to my music, and is there any way to fix it short of whiping out half my library and starting from scratch?

I’ve read reports from many other iTunes users who are having the same issue I am. Please read on...
When listening to songs that I purchased from iTunes (as opposed to those I imported from CD), several, but not all, of them stop playing prematurely several seconds (or even minutes) before the end of the tune. Playback jumps immediately to the beginning of the next tune.
I noticed this, I believe, shortly after moving my iTunes library to a new iMac (3.1 GHz Intel Core i5, 12 GB memory) running iTunes 10.5.3 (3) on Mac OS 10.7.3. Everything was fine before the move.
Of the 283 purchased songs in my iTunes library, about 100 of them exhibit this behavior. The song playback times at which this happens range from 2:14 to 5:19.
What is interesting, is that tunes from the same album all end at the same playback time! For example, I purchased the whole album “River - The Joni Letters” (Herbie Hancock’s album covering a number of Joni Mitchell tunes). Every song from that album now stops playing at 3:39. The same happens with other tunes that happen to be from the same album, too. I have no idea why this would be the case, but it certainly seems significant.
Another interesting finding, is that if I copy one of tunes exhibiting this issue to the desktop and play it from there, the song plays all the way through to the end without a problem. This would, I think, rule out a corrupt file and tend to point to iTunes itself as the source of the problem.
The problem certainly is annoying, and it would be great if we could find some resolution and get back to enjoying our music without the mind-jarring bump that too often now happens without warning.
Sincerely,
Michael Loomis

Song stops before finishing playing in ITunes and skips to next song

I'm using ITunes on a Windows Vista 64-bit system. Occasionally, when a song is playing, it will stop before it finishes and skip to the next song. It seems to only happen with certain songs though. Very strange. Didn't happen in the past. Is it a bug in Itunes? Any ideas??

This is really getting annoying. I'm on the verge of giving up on iTunes, or at least giving up on iTunes 8. The first rule of business is to make it easy for your customers to give you money. iTunes Store is a classic example of that. The second rule of business is not to p*ss off your customers. Looks like Apple is falling down on this one.
New information since my last rant. I have another computer running iTunes 7.6.0.29. Songs that do not play to completion on iTunes 8, play just fine on this older version of iTunes.
Worse, this problem has infected my wife's iPod. Songs that iTunes 8 does not finish playing also do not finish playing on my wife's iPod Classic (Model MB029LL, Version 1.1.2 PC). The same bug appears to be in newer iPod software.
I have an old 20GB iPod Click Wheel (Version 3.1.1). The same song that fails to play properly on iTunes and the iPod Classic plays just fine on my iPod Click Wheel.
This problem (at least my problem) is obviously a regression. Apple please fix it!

Volume automatically goes up to maximum when I select next song. Why?

Whenever I choose to skip to the next song, the volume automatically goes up to maximum when I use the headset. Why is that? Thanks

Battery pulling did the trick for me too. For those who, like me, had no idea what this is, it simply means taking the battery out of the device when it is turned on, waiting 30 seconds, then putting it back in. Apparently and inexplicably, this has the power to cure many of these problems which seem to have no solution.

Song doesn't play and skips to next song

I downloaded a song onto my Ipod from my computer and it plays perfectly on my computer but when I try to play it on my Ipod, it doesn't work and just skips straight to the next song on the playlist. I already tried to add it again but it still doesn't work. What should I do?

Have you tried resetting your iPod?
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the
Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I just bought music on my iTunes account and the files did not download completely. The songs play for a minute or so then skips to next song.
