HT1349 iTunes radio frequently cuts out in the middle of a song and rebuffers--a lot! This is really annoying.

I have a dual platform system and when I use iTunes on the PC side, it frequently craps out. It suffers from constant dropout and needs to rebuffer. I went on here to create a post about it and found the choice of communities disappointing. Furthermore, the MAc side also suffers from this issue. Anyone have any ideas as to why this is always happening?

Hey Ariddel,
I don't have the issue, but I am curious what's different between you and me. If you use nslookup in Command Prompt on Windows or use Network Utility on OS X to lookup pri.kts-af.net - what does it say?
Is it a particular genre or station that you're testing, or did you try several?
Could you share one of the streams you listen to and see this with that so I can test?
Does it happen at all hours, or are there only certain hours you listen to the radio in iTunes?
I know I mostly listen in the office - maybe it only happens when everyone is at work and listening to the radio?
Thanks for helping me with my curiosity problem.

As i am watching a movie the audio will cut out in the middle of the movie.

As i am watching a movie the audio will cut out in the middle of the movie. Also I am watching the movie in full screen mode. IfI have a windows 8 and this article does not work http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1718. I have uninstall and reinstall with a current version of quicktime.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

TS1424 i tunes down load song cuts out in the middle of the song

Yes. That can help.

Songs cut out in the middle

On several different files downloaded from the iTunes store, the content cuts out in the middle. The song will be going along, playing normally, then there will be anywhere from several seconds to several minutes of silence before the song begins to play again. The progress bar in iTunes window continues on counting off seconds/minutes as if playing normally, but no sound comes out. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which files are doing this. I have entire albums where there isn't a problem and others where it happens on one, two or more files. It occurs across different devices. How can I re-download the files to see if this fixes the problem? Thanks

You can delete a track by selecting it and pressing the delete key. Confirm that you want to move it to the Trash.

Plug it into your computer or charger and let it charge for awhile.
Maybe your battery ran out of charge..

Audio cuts out in the middle!

I have now burned two disks for my current project. The preview looks and sounds fine, but when I view the burned disk, the audio drops out in the middle. I thought maybe it was a memory issue, but wouldn't I get an error message or something? Maybe I did something wrong in the editing, but then why would the preview be fine? Any suggestions? THANKS!

The problem may be the actual DVD media or player. Read Beverly's comments here:
http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?128@@.68b68f78
Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save As Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Disk Utility to burn the DVD.
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (not the .img, the one below) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. Your SuperDrive tray will open. Insert a recordable DVD. (DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and Tiger.
b Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD 5 project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

How Do I Fade Out In The Middle Of A Song?

I cant find out how to do it on certain parts in the middle of a song I am mixing. Can anyone help?

You may want to head over to http://labs.adobe.com/ and download the public beta release of Soundbooth CS4. It offers multitrack, volume keyframing, and more tools that are better suited for mixing music than the tools offered in Soundbooth CS3.

Hp touchsmart win8 audio cuts out in the middle of listening or watching stuff after 5min

Just bought a brand new HP Touchsmart Envy 23 and audio will stop working after listening to anything after a few minutes. Been doing it since I bought it. Will work again if the computer is restarted, but still will only last a few minutes before cutting out for good again.

To confirm, the driver linked to earlier in this thread was installed and your audio is no longer working at all?
What is the product number?
NOTE: Do NOT provide the serial number or the Windows product key.
If you open the device manager (typically Start>right-click Computer>manage>device manager), is the sound card listed without any errors (?, ! )? If it has a ? or a ! on it, open it and let me know what the status message is.
What is the status of the mute key? Does the key respond when it is pressed?

Almost every time I open a new page, and that page has an ad with movement or video, the browser page hides behind other open pages. This is really annoying.

I don't see any evidence that this is malware. For instance i opened a page that was for a major newspaper from Dallas. As i reached my cursor to the page, it hid behind the other pages, and i had to now reach down to my taskbar to find it again. When i did, i saw an ad on the page with movement (flash?). Anyway, the ad was for breast cancer awareness, and was made by that newspaper, which is why i think it has nothing to do with malware. Same thing happens everyday with normal sites like Yahoo. Anytime an ad has movement or video, the page is only visible for a second, then hides behind the others. This has really become a major annoyance.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

My iTunes keeps logging me out of the Store as I open and close it.

Before, whenever I closed iTunes, and opened it the next day, I would still be logged into iTunes. But since I redownloaded iTunes, everytime I open and close iTunes, I have to log in to get Album Art and stuff. It's just a minor hinderance, but it's still very annoying. If anybody could help, that'd be appreciated.

Restore the device as new.

Audio cuts out in the middle of recording an instrument track

The recording continues to happen, but I can no longer hear either the pre recorded tracks, nor the track I am laying down.
I am using Logic 7 Express on a Mac Mini with 1 Gig of Ram, and I am recording through a M-Audio Fast Track USB. Play back goes through the Fast Track into a Logitech basic computer 3 piece speaker system. I dont know if this is an application or hardware issue.
Any thoughts?

My ipod touch stopped playing music in the middle of a song and now stops playing music. It says that it's playing a song but i don't hear anything. I've tried turning it off and on and restoring it's settings.

So like the title (which i thought was suppose to be a question to tech support) suggests, my ipod touch has stopped playing any audio sound. I've turned it off and on and restored it to it's default settings and still nothing. If it helps, it stopped playing music a few minutes after i accidently had some water on it.

- First place the iPod in a sealed container/bag of rice for a couple of days. Change the rice daily. Do not turn on or charge before it is dry.
- The try the standard fixes, reset and restore, including restoring to factory defaults/new iPod.
- Try both headphones and speaker.
- If no usccessful then the water caused permenent damage to the iPod and service is required.
