I tunes update 10.5 and music files not playing correctly

After I updated iTunes to 10.5, a vast majority of my music files do not play correctly. When they do play, they sound as if they have been super compressed and I cannot figure out why. I have un installed/re installed, checked all of my drivers and even scanned my library for viruses. Is there anyone who may have any info that may help fix this problem? I would be eternally grateful.

I have just downloaded a free program called burn and it burns music perfectly and yet itunes still wont work and comes up with the same error report as above so i do hope this helps apple to fix the bugs in there latest 10.5 itunes update.

Album art is distorted or messed up and music does not play correctly

I recently restored my iPod touch 2g to 4.2.1 and my album art looks mispositioned and distorted as you can see here:

However, album art is displayed correctly in Cover Flow and in iTunes
Another issure I have is that every song on my iPod Touch does not start at the beginning, it starts at the middle and plays for a few minutes then goes to the beginning of the song.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Yes they are correct in iTunes
I have tried that but it would reproduce the problem
I also get the error messages "The iPod cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found." and "The iPod cannot be synced. An error occurred while writing to the device."

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?
And, just out of curiosity, what doe water filtration systems have to do with this?
Best of luck.

The music is not played correctly on my iphone (on Laptop it's ok)

Hi all
I loaded some songs from my laptop to the iphone4 (on the laptops the files are ok) but when I played on the iphone ....The music is not played correctly - I get some cuts and it's jumping from one song to another. A total reboot or update to the latest OS did not bring any change.
Thanks

I too have this problem which seems to be replicated several times in discussion groups. I've swictched off iTunes Match, backup up and restored my iPhone and nothing helps. I'll try other discussion threads but if anyone has a solution, PLEASE post!

HELP....AVCHD / MPEG files not playing correctly!

I have been trying to download video that was shot with the new Sony FS100 camera that I'm told are AVCHD or MPEG files to my older Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 timeline, but they are not playing correctly. When I reverse the field dominance, the image plays better but the sound is strange (I was able to speed the sound to 450% and it worked better, but then the balance of the sound from the clip is lost somewhere.).
Any suggestions to make these files play and work correctly? I tried converting them to AVI files but that showed up completely black on the timeline! Anything I've tried either affects the video or audio negatively! I try either makes the image play or stutterThis was shot in regular SD format, NOT HD, so they should be able to play on a standard timeline. Can anyone suggest anything to help please? Much appreciated!

Thanks for your reply, I ran it through Media Info. Here are the results:
Container & general information:
MPEG-PS: 290 Mib 4min22s
1 Video stream: MPEG video
1 Audio stream: AC-3

Please let me know where to go from here. Thanks so much!

Purchased music and m4p files not playing in itunes

Background: so I had @me.com account with all my music purchased but it got disabled. so I tried to reset it but of course my birthdate did not work. I dont have contacting apple but they could not verify me with only 1 security question, no credit card, and incorrect serial number. so the @me account cant be accessed. Later that year my computer got struck by lighting destroying the hard drive/computer. the good new is I had a backup of the music. I put the music file on the new computer and when I tried to play the .m4p protected files itunes wants my @me.com account I cant access. I have my music on my computer and on my ipod classic but can only play the music on my ipod classic. I have many more tracks I want to add to my ipod but dont want to lose the music I already bought. I already tried many times with program to convert the music but it seems that need the music to play in itunes to work (authorize computer).
Question: Is trying to get my music to play the .m4p files a lost cause? Or can I stream the music from my ipod classic to computer then convert it? Or can I copy an authoriztion file from ipod classic? Any assistance with is would be very helpful.
PS: fairplay is not fair at all.

Protected AAC music/files not playing or appearing in iTunes purchases

Any purchases which I made from itunes during 2007/08 which were protected AAC files will no longer play on my pc (nor download to my ipod). I get multiple 'This computer is not authorised to play....Would you like to authorise it?' When I authorise it, it tells me that 'This computer is already authorised (2 out of 5)'. But the track will not play and again asks for authorisation. The tracks that will not play are all 'Fairplay version 2'. I thought about deleting them and downloading them again as I understand that Apple no longer encripts files, but they do not appear in my previous purchases in my itunes account (no purchases before 2011 appear?) - so I assume that I cannot download them again. So i have the tracks in my library, the 'info' says that they are registered to my itunes account, but it seems that because they are encripted I cannot play them. Help please!!

I am having what seems to be the same problem as Julie described. After purchasing an album on itunes, I created a CD-R disk that will play on the computer but not on any of several players I tried. The CD shows (Get info) each tune to be an MP-4. In ITunes...the tracks are shown as AAC protected...I don't know the difference.
It appears Julie solved the problem by your suggestion to go to iTunes preferences...I tried that Pref>Advanced>Burning>and selected Audio CD and burned a second disk....actually I didn't change anything because my preferences were already set that way.
I would never buy anything else from iTunes that I cannot play on my home system. this has been a frustrating matter and I guess what I am asking is there a pausible solution?
To your questions:
Play on home CD player: message: No audio...although the Cd plays on the computer ok.
Media used: Memorex CD-R
Brand of players: Sony DVD player 1.5 years old & Cyberhome 1 year
Operating System 10.3.9
iTunes 5.xx
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks,
ron

Specific Music Files Not Playing Using Shared Playlists

I have over 3600 music files in my collection, and of those, about 44 will not play using the shared playlist on other machines. There is nothing between the files that is common that I can decipher. Some are *.m4a files, some are *.mp3 files. However, all will play in iTunes on the host machine and will play fine on the myriad of iPods that I have. If an attempt to play is made, the song information comes up in the heading on iTunes (song name, duration, album, etc...), but the song never starts playing. Any help or insight would be most appreciated.

Hi
What happens when an agent puts a caller on hold is nothing to do with the UCCX server, prompts on the UCCX server, etc...
What is played is controlled by the 'User Hold Network Source' configured on the agent's line, handset, device pool etc; and which MoH server it is played from is determined by the MRGL assigned to the 'listening' device (e.g. gateway typically).
Regards
Aaron

Music does not play correctly

I am beginning to find more and more music in my library that does not finish completely when played. It seems as though they will play 75-80% through and then stop, sometimes moving to the next song and sometimes just standing still. It has happened to music downloaded from iTunes, imported from CD's, and mp3s added from elsewhere. It is as though I have incomplete files, but I know that is not the case. These files have played in full before with no problem. I have recently transferred my files to a new computer with a backup EHD. I am not sure if this is the root of the problem, or if it is a contributor, or just a coincidence. Has anyone else had this problem wiht their music and had any luck finding a resolution?

update iTunes to 7.01, that should fix it?
reïnstall completely (with quicktime)
update audio drivers?

Music files not seen correctly by iTunes?

I have noticed a strange one this afternoon....and wondered if anyone can help?
I have just loadedimported music from two different purchased CDs into my itunes library on my macbook Pro.
I got no unusual messages, import appears to have been succesful and if I put one the same disks back in it tells me that these songs are alraedy in my itunes library.
I can also confirm that the Mp3 files are present and correct in my Itunes folders in their own indexed folders i.e. by album and artisit as you would expect.
However, there is something strange going on in that when I look for these albums, tracks or artists using the Itunes search box on my itunes library then it doesn't seem to be able to identify them for some reason and I can't just drag them over to the playlist for my ipod.
Never encountered this before - can anyone tell me what is going on?!!

Ajay,
Yes, it is a long-standing display bug in iTunes, that has been reported on both the Windows and Mac versions for several years.
When it occurs, the tracks really are in your library, but do not display in Music view. Usually they do show up in Recently Added, and of course, the files really are in the folders where they are supposed to be. Does that match what you are seeing?
Home remedies that people have reported may fix it are to restart your machine, or to download a song from the Store (e.g. a free single).

Final Cut Express Log and Transfer files not playing audio on another mac

I recently purchased a new Mac Pro for video editing for work, and am having some issues with it. Previously i was working on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.4.11, on Final Cut Express 4.
I used Log & Transfer to get the AVCHD videos from my Canon HF 11 onto my mac, and had no issues. Where my problems started was when I moved my video files to my new Mac Pro running OS 10.5.6. Now when I open those video files in either Quicktime or FCE, the VIDEO plays but _not the audio_. I thought maybe the video files were bad, but when I tried the original files on the new Mac, they still didn't work. I don't know if there's some codec that isn't on the new mac or if there's some other problem... I just know that my new amazing machine cannot play the files that my 3 year old one can. I'm not new to computers, but I'm not an Apple guru. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Well I can try trashing the files, but I can't log and transfer the files again, as it's months of footage that aren't on the camera anymore. But i did find something else out. The files that were recorded with the camera's built-in mic recording is fine and with sound, but the files that I used my wireless mic setup had no sound. I don't know why that is, because they worked fine on the MacBook Pro. I tried log and transferring a new clip on the Mac Pro wit;h footage using the wireless mic, and still no sound.

Why are certain sound files not playing correctly in iTunes?

I have had iTunes for years and have never had prolonged or unsolvable problems with anything playback related until now. I recently acquired some music, and it plays perfectly when I use WMP. When I added it my iTunes library, however, the audio is compressed during playback and there is a lot of skipping and blips going on in every song. It still plays perfectly in WMP, but not matter what I do the same thing happens in iTunes.
For reference, here is what the original audio songs like

And here is what it sounds like in iTunes

I have a similar problem. When I try to play TV episodes that were downloaded (in .m4v format) using iTunes, QuickTime (7.0.4) will play video without audio, and when I press "stop", QuickTime locks up!
My system used to play these files PERFECTLY, until I downloaded some shareware video format conversion programs (that didn't work, anyway). I believe one of them installed a shared DLL or CODEC or something that is conflicting with QuickTime. I'VE UNINSTALLED AND REINSTALLED QUICKTIME AND ITUNES COUNTLESS TIMES, trying to follow different people's advice, mostly from posts on this site, but nothing helps!!
The thing we have in common is that it sounds like you also have other video software that could have conflicting CODECs or shared DLLs. DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TRACK THIS PROBLEM DOWN??
And why doesn't Apple make a CLEAN uninstaller and a COMPLETE installer? People shouldn't have to do the manual registry editing and file deletions that other people are recommending!!!!!

TS1362 Please provide assistance with Itunes 10.7 and the songs not playing correctly-jumping and missing.I did not experience this with Itunes 9.2

Please provide assistance and guidance as I have recently just downloaded Itunes Version 10.7(much to my regret!)and now experience all types of sound issue-problems such as jumping,skipping and generally poor audio.
I have tried all the driver checks,music enhancer and equilizer de-activation on Itunes and defragmented my computer,but the issues are still there.
I have had NO problems with Itunes 9.2 in the past and now when I tried to re-install 9.2.;the system will not allow me to downgrade.
Is it advisable and poosible to downgrade without any loss of Itunes material?
Any suggestions as to how are would be able to resolve this OR is this an issue that is widespread and Apple need to address in a further upgrade?
Thank-you!
Despondent

To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes. Probably best to also remove other suppporting software, e.g. Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support & Bonjour. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.
