I need help! when songs begin they are very choppy

on many songs , when they begin, the songs begin to get choppy for the first few seconds. it mostly seems to happen when i am listening to an isolated artist/album (via the search thing on i tunes) and it usually only happens when i let the songs switch without me choosing the next song (ie random)- this is about all i have concluded though. i guess i should preface this buy saying i just reformatted my computer and all my music is on my external HD. i feel like it may be a problem with my external Hd (there is a lot of stuff on there), but ive had this problem in various forms before and i was wondering if anyone had a suggestion on what may be causing it and what the best way to solve it would be. thanks

I have the exact same problem whenever I let tracks run from one the the next (without me pressing the "next" button), except my library is not on an external HD, so I don't think this is the reason. I thought initially it might have to do with the last.fm software I installed recently but turning it off the problem persists. Very annoying. Did you find any solutions?
Thanks for any help,
Diego

  • Me or my pc can't see my songs, but they are still on my Ipod.

    Me or my pc can't see my songs, but they are still on my Ipod.
    I've connected my Ipod to my pc, and suddenly there were no songs left, but when I checked it, was the memory still full, like before.
    I've disconnected my Ipod and suddenly there were also no songs on my Ipod aswell.
    please help me!!

    "There should be a solution I think"
    Yes, to restore the iPod and reload the songs with whatever program you use to put songs on the iPod.
    How do you manage to use iPod Agent to transfer songs to the iPod since this is what it says in the iPod Agent FAQ?
    "iPod Agent is not a music manager. It does not provide the ability to organize your music and transfer it to your iPod. Apple's own iTunes does a great job of this and thus we don't see a reason to try to duplicate it's functionality. iPod Agent is meant to work hand-in-hand with iTunes."
    If you don't use iTunes, what "library" do you use?

  • I received an ipod touch 5th gen for Christmas.  The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my touch have created ghost songs.  They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play.  I can't delete them

    The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my new touch have created ghost songs.  They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play.  I can't delete them.  I've tried unticking all the music that was on the ipod via itunes and re-syncing, which in theory should delete all music from my ipod.  It does except for the 5 ghost songs.   So at present I have no music on ipod except the 5 ghost songs.   Has anyone got any ideas how I can get rid of these?  
    I had no problems with my ipod touch 4th, which I had for years.   Any help would be great.

    The first time I synced my iphone 4 with my mac, I didn't realize that all of my photos from the iphoto library would transfer over to the phone (more than 3,000).   Now, I need to remove some, as they are taking up too much space.  I cannot figure out how to remove them from the phone.  I tried to uncheck boxes and sync again, but I get a message that there is no room on the iphone.  I've read as many articles as I can find, but still cannot manage this.  Thanks for any help.

    Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync

  • Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes?

    Is there a DJ app for the Ipad that will read the "start" and "stop time" setting for each individual song, as they are set in the song Options screen in Itunes? The Ipod Touch, by itself does not allow cross-fading, therefore when the stop time is edited short, the song jusst truncates then goes to the next song. I tried the DJay ap and while it would crossfade, it would NOT read the song settings for the stop marker. So now I want to try and Ipad and see if there is an app that will READ the Itune stop settings within the song. I do NOT want an app that will allow me to DO the stop marker. I want an app that will READ the stop marker from the song as it is set in Itunes.

    Itunes provides the option for setting the Start and Stop times of each music track.  However, the start and stop times do not synchronize to the iPhone.  I don't understand why this option is even available as it doesn't work when listening to music on the phone.  I have not found another application that will support the start and stop time markets.  I have searched quite a bit for this but can't find anything.  I hope we can find something. 

  • In random mode i tunes stops some songs before they are finished.  How do I fix that?

    In random mode, itunes stops some songs before they are finished.  How do I change the ending point of a song in itunes?

    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.

    On my iphone, when I get into Messages, I see a list of message thread names and at the top right is an icon with a square and pencil coming out of it.  If I tap it, I can begin composing a new message with having to deal with any others.
    If on your screen you see one or more message "bubbles", then press the "Messages" button at the upper left to go back to the home page for messages.  There you can tap the compose icon.

  • I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked.

    I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked. So basically it's syncing all of the songs when I just want the checked ones on. This is very frustrating.

    When your device is connected, check the tabs at the top ("Summary" "Apps" "Music," etc. Under the Music one, check to see if "Sync Music>entire music library" is checked. If it is, that may be why all the songs are syncing.

  • Is there offline mavericks help? There should be an option to get it installed. We need help more often than we are online. The idea of only online help is lazy and uncaring of the dealer to clients.

    Is there offline Mavericks help? There should be an option to get it installed. We need help more often than we are online. If there isn't, then idea of only online help is lazy and uncaring of the dealer to clients.

    I've done just that.
    And another on the finder column bug in list mode.
    And a few more in the pipeline if I find the motivation: I'm afraid my long relationship with Apple is flagging. They are excessively focussed on consumer goods and leaving their core business to wither away.
    Maybe more serious users aren't profitable to them, and they are happy to let it wither.
    So presumably they are happy if we wander off and start focussing on all the open source  unixes out there.
    p.s. not happy with general Apple trends since about 10.6.8, can anyone tell ?

    Make that four.
    If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
    Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
    Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
    Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
    There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
    Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
    Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
    It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
    The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
    Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
    They all uninstall differently.

    My CD reader says all my CDs are empty when I know they are not. Is my reader down or is there a setting that is off?

    Yes. you should keep your media in iTunes, and indeed you should also keep a backup of your library as well. if you have the device set up for manual management then the content would remain on it when deleted from the library, but you would have no way to restore the device if there was a problem.
