I cannot watch any TV shows on Itunes. The episode will play for a few seconds and then freeze and skip forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 PC and I didn't have problems before the Itunes 11 update. Any ideas?

After updating to ITunes 11 a while back, I am no longer able to watch TV shows on my laptop. If I try to watch an episode, it freezes and then skips forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 laptop and I didn't have any problems before ITunes 11.

I don't use a graphics card, I use on board graphics as my computer case is too small to fit a graphics card inside.
There are no effects applied to the clip, only one layer of video and 1 layer of audio (both from the same file). The video is in MP4 format at 720p.
Before I rendered the sequence, I had a yellow bar above the sequence. Also, I imported the same clip into CC Standard and it played fine (also had a yellow bar) with no lag.
I think I've fixed the issue now as rendering the sequence made the video play smoothly with no apparent issues.
If any other clips have lag or any other problems in CC 2014, I'll just import them into CC standard and see if that works.

  • Whenever i try to play a video on my iphone, it pauses literally every 2 seconds. i will hit the play button, the video will play for a few seconds and then it will pause again. what can i do to fix this?

    videos will play for a few seconds on my iphone then it pauses. i press play and it pauses again. why is it doing this? and this is for all videos: youtube vides, videos off the internet, videos ive downloaded from itunes

    I can understand this with videos you are streaming, i.e. maybe you have a slow data connection.
    Videos on your phone should not do this.  Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • HT1267 My iPod player in my iPhone isn't working properly it will play for a few seconds then stop and also the volume level will appear then disappear what can I do to remedy this?

    My iPod player within my iPhone isn't working properly when playing videos it will start then stop after a few seconds and also the sound bar appears then disappears, and when playing music no sound is coming out when I'm on a call I can hear everything properly and also on loud speaker! What can I do to remedy this? Please help!!!

    If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first.  Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

  • I have an iTunes account. My iTunes on my computer shows about 100 songs. However, when I click on about 1/3 of the songs, they will play for about 15 seconds and quit. Anyone know what is going on?

    I have an iTunes account along with an older iPod and a new iPhone. My iTunes account shows about 50 songs on it. When I try to play about half of the songs, they play for 15 seconds and then it quits and goes on to the next song. Anybody have any ideas?

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • When watching videos on YouTube and other sites, the sound plays for a few seconds and then stops.

    I've ensured that the sound is working by pressing the volume up/down buttons and by looking in System Preferences to check it's switched to Internal Speakers, and sound plays through iTunes, so I think it could be something to do with Safari. When I Quit Safari and reopen it the sound tends to work, but then goes off again.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.
    Thank you in advance.

  • When completely inactive I will get what sounds like a radio station. It will play for a few seconds then quit. then start again an hour later. no open apps. any similar situations?

    As stated above I will get a random radio station coming through my computer playing ads.  I found similar problems happening to pc users but no help offered to a mac user.  No applications are running in the background (to my knowledge) and its really iritating. Any help or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

    I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
    After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

  • I just updated and downloaded the new version of iTunes. I then downloaded some music and now the music won't play on my iPod or in my iTunes. The tracks play for a few seconds and then skip to the next track

    I just downloaded and updated the newest version of iTunes. After updating I downloaded some new music and synced the iPod. The music doesn't play. It'll play about 30 seconds of the song and then skip automatically to the next song. I restarted the iPod. I restored it. It still didn't work. Then I tried listening to the music from my laptop straight from iTunes...and it's still doing it.
    How do I fix it?

    I'm assuming the tracks that won't play copy/are displayed with exclamation marks. This happens if the files are no longer where iTunes expects to find them. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • My iPhone 4s was working fine yesterday but today, the volume has stopped working entirely. A song will play for approximately 9 seconds and then will cut the sound completely. It has done this on YouTube, Music, and my ringer. How do I fix it?

    My phone played music fine yesterday. Today, headphones plugged in or not, my music (including YouTube and ringer) stops working. The timer still counts up as though it is still working but the volume turns gray or not at all and the little circle volume control disappears. How can I get my music working again?

  • Songs imported into Itunes only play for a few seconds

    I seem to have a problem with some of my songs in my library playing for a few seconds and then itunes jumps to the next song. I have played these songs before and they were fine. Once this happens once it always happens to a particular song. Anyone have any thoughts?
    thanks

    I think I might have found an answer - importing a folder and or Limewire!
    Either Limewire mess's with the files, folder or your system or iTunes attempts to stop illegally downloaded files being played. iTunes might also do it if importing a lot of files in one go.
    I imported a music folder that isn't mine from our home network drive that has a few tracks in it downloaded through Limewire. I re checked some of the files in Ableton Live and they are actually damaged! So I tried importing one of the Limewire tunes again individually after finding some info online (links to the pages at bottom) and the track plays no prob now. I also un-checked the "look for shared folders" in iTunes preferences.
    For about 2 years now I haven't been able to import more than 3 files at a time which is why I imported a whole folder (about 50 tracks) just after the software update and C.D importing.
    My concern is that importing a whole folder even without any Limewire downloads in it might well be treated this way by iTunes. Most of the tracks in our network drive folder that have been downloaded through Limewire are legit direct connect transfers from producer to producer or legit submitted tracks!
    Hope this helps.

  • IPOD updater 2006-1-10, now no sound after video plays for a few seconds

    I installed the latest IPod updater 2006-1-10 and now all my movies will hang for a few seconds and then the sound stops working. If I forward through a few frames, the sounds comes back and repeats the same behaviour.
    Anyone have a fix or seen this before?

    iPod Updater 2006-01-10 has caused a variety of problems on multiple iPod models.
    I just spent an hour on the phone with tech support. They forwarded me to some higher level techs due to my extreme heat while recharging issue. They still seem unaware of the problem. I suggested they read the forums to see just how widespread the problem is. The tech I spoke with assured me she would pass the problem up through the ranks and check the forums, but she said they haven't had a lot of service calls on the issue.
    SO!
    I suggest that everyone post a "me too" message to the "Complete iPod Failure" thread from 1-23-1006 ( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=330396&tstart=0 ), with a description of the problems they are experiencing and what model iPod they own. That thread is an effort at consolidating discussion of this specific issue, as well as a collection of the myriad possible fixes available.
    Then phone Apple's tech support (1.800.275.2273) and let them know you've had a problem with the iPod Updater 2006-01-10.
    Choose menu selection #1, Technical Support, and talk the automated responder through your configuration.
    Hopefully we can at least bring the issue to their full attention and get them to pull the updater from the downloads so it doesn't ruin anyone else's day!
    Good luck!

  • Why do you tube videos take so long to load and once they do they will only play for a few seconds before quitting ?

  • TS1398 My iphone 4S has been updated to the newest software and isn't detecting internet, although sometimes it connects for a few seconds and then disappears again. I have tried everything it has said on the internet about this and it still isn't working

    My iphone 4S has been updated to the newest software and isn't detecting internet, although sometimes it connects for a few seconds and then disappears again. I have tried everything it has said on the internet about this and it still isn't working.

    Ok I think it's a problem with my router. I went to my cousin's house and the Wi-Fi worked there perfectly. I was even able to download many apps. So I guess my router probably can't take in more connections. Oh well thanks anyway.

  • When I try starting my iPod touch, it won't start; the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds, and then, it just shuts off. I tried to charge it through an outlet; the iPod didn't even charge, so I tried to restore my settings on my computer. iTunes won't

    when i try starting my IPod  it won't start, the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds,and then. it just shut off . I tried to charged it through an outlet, the IPod didn't eve charger so I tried to restore my setting in my computer, i tunes won't

    But that requires the computer to see the ipod. I am having the same problem and I keep being told to restore it, but you have to either get the ipod to turn on or have the computer see it in order to so that. Right now I have a pretty useless 32GB ipod touch cos I cant get the thing to turn on! I can only get the apple logo for like maybe 20 seconds and it goes away. Ive charged it for days on a wall charger, on the computer usb charger, and on a speaker charger. Nothing works.
