How to fix iTunes skipping cutting out and repeating?
iPhone to iTunes on Windows. I've had iTunes for over a year and has worked well I downloaded Heavy Metal and all I get is skipping, cutting out and repeating. I will take any and all reasonable suggestions to fix this problem. I enjoy listening to music I buy while web surfing. Thank you in advance.

Do technical people from Apple ever read these forums, or will they wait until I'm too desperate to wait, contact their advisors, and then charge £25 to tell me I need to get a new phone?
Unlikely... as these are user to user technical support forums.
That being said, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Work through each of these steps in succession.
If the issue still occurs, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

Older itunes purchases cutting out half way through
I've been noticing for some time (this is not my first attempt to get an answer) that my older itunes purchases cut out about half way through when played on my ipod (but not when played on my PC) I've tried to find an answer on Apple forums before but it seems to be one of those questions that never gets a good answer. I'm beginning to wonder if it is Apple's way of getting us to buy our music all over again, but they wouldn't be that cynical would they. Anyway, since I'm increasingly unwilling to trust Apple to look after my music I'm going back to CDs whenever possible. I don't always want to buy an entire album, so does anyone have a real remedy for this problem?
Hello Jo Tampoco,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have some purchased music that plays as expected in your iTunes library on your computer but does not on your iPod touch. Any purchases made in the iTunes Store can be downloaded again at no charge as long as the item(s) are still available for purchase so you will not be asked to repurchase these items.
For troubleshooting, depending on how your music is being moved to your iPod, there are some steps I would suggest. If you are syncing the music from your computer to your iPod and the music on the iPod is not playing completely, I would suggest trying to download that music directly from your purchases to your iPod. To do this, please use the instructions in the first article below.
Download past purchases - Apple Support
If you have been downloading the purchases directly to the iPod and the music is not playing completely, I would suggest syncing the music from your iTunes library and testing to see if it will play as expected once it is on the iPod.

Have a great day,

Audio cut out and midi miss sync
Lately I have been getting audio cut out, and the missing, 'error while trying to sync audio and midi'.
I thought it was that I had too many instances of virtual instruments. So I mixed the song down. Imported that into a NEW song, with only one audio track, and then proceeded to try to do an organ overdub...Well Logic still drops out and gives me the message, even though there is NO midi information in this file...
Then I noticed that even AIF or mp3 files, didn't play properly from the desktop preview mode. They stop too. Activity monitor doesn't seem to be showing anything overworking..
Disk Warrior fixed some volume errors,
Anyone have any ideas to try?I'm using a motu828. I disconnected the firewire connection, and ran audio from the headphone jack to the motu, and VOILA, no problems... Last year, I went thru two motu units, not really sure if they are the issue.
I think it might be LOGIC's firewire circuitry. Apple techs couldn't find the issue, I had the G5 motherboard replaced. Another factor was I had 3 Lacie firewire drives (2 firewire 800, 1 400) I have had 4 Lacie drives die on me in the last 3 years. They are the only firewire drives I have, so I don't know if the fault lies with them, or the again Apples firewire circuitry, stressing the drives out???
I also put a firewire 800 card in my system.
I have now switched to an external ESATA raid setup. No more firewire drives. So far so good. Since I had the whole motherboard replaced, I don't know what that means in terms of MOTU connected via firewire..
For now, I'm running audio out of headphone jack, using all virtual instruments, so I know it will sound better when I get firewire audio up and running, but I got tired of it cutting out every 3 - 30 minutes. I'm thinking about the apogee duet unit. But again if it's connected via firewire, I don't know where that leaves me..
My G5 is three and half years old, perhaps it's tired and wants to be retired....
The dark part of me wonders, if Apple computers don't start crapping out after three years of heavy use, or is it that technology, software, updates, push the hardware beyond it's capacity after a few years. -
After recent upgrade to Yosemite on Macbook air bluetooth audio cuts out and associated video stops with audio. Likewise with airplay and Apple TV. I have deleted all my saved wifi connections and restarted numerous times. I do not expect a resolution from the community, but hope to get the attention of Apple engineers. If you are having same problems or have a miracle cure I am all ears.
May start my own thread, but I'm having similar issues.
I've been using an old iMac (running 10.7.5) and Apple TV for years with no issues. Last week I bought a new Macbook Pro running Yosemite and have had audio issues multiple times. The weird thing is that sometimes it works flawlessly, other times (like now) I spend half an hour just trying to get a song to play.
My issues are: When I got to "computers" in Apple TV to stream my music, my music is sometimes chopper or intermittent, and I seen to know when it's going to happen based on the status wheel just before it plays. When I choose a song, the status wheel will spin for an unusually long time, usually an indicator that the audio is either not going to work, or stutter.
When it does finally pull up a song, the playhead sits at the beginning of the song for a good 3-5 seconds before actually playing. Then, when it starts playing, it's all downhill. It will play a few seconds, drop out, play a few more seconds, drop out, and then ultimately the playhead will keep moving across the song as if it's playing, but there's no audio.
Again, this is a new phenomenon never experienced by me. I've tried everything I could think of, some of them all at once:
• restart Apple TV
• restart Macbook Pro
• quite iTunes/open
• turn off Home Sharing on iTunes then reconnect it
• unplugging and cycling both my modem and router
None of these have alleviated the problem.
The odd thing is, like this morning, the audio started up perfectly and never gave me any issues. It wasn't until later in the day that it started. Perhaps after the macbook pro had been put to sleep? Not sure.
Regardless, this is an annoying trait, one that's new to me and my system (as stated, worked flawlessly until my new purchase), and is 100% limited to either a) the macbook pro b) Yosemite or c) both of them. -
I get a message stating MSVCR80.dll is missing. How to fix? I have removed and re-installed multiple times.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Way back in Photoshop 5 there was an easy way to make a cut out and save that part of the picture as a new one. How in the world do I do it with Photoshop Elements 9? I know I did it before but can not remember how?
ThanksSelect what you want, then copy it (ctrl+C in windows, command+C on a mac), then File>New from Clipboard. If you want to remove it from the original photo instead of just copying it, use ctrl+X/Command+X instead.

my ipad2 keeps cutting out and going back to start up screen?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -
I have an iPad 2 and so does my mom. We both have the app Slotomania and now all of sudden after having it for months, our games connected and we don't know how to fix it. Deleting it and reinstalling does not work.
Does the app now use iCloud, do you use iCloud and do the two of you use the same account on iCloud?
Just a guess.
