Importing from CD does not play properly in iTunes on Leopard

When I am import from a CD either separately per song or all at once, the songs import and you can see the song on my library; but then when I play they do not work, only work for a few seconds and then quit, or skip badly. I have tried changing the preferences and am importing as .mp3 now but still have same problems. I read the forum and saw problems similar but not exactly like mine. Also when just clik and drag the track as an .mp3 from an external drive I get the same problem. Anyone know what gives?

I just started having the same issue, I just got a brand new cd and when I import the cd I get skips and scratches in the music. I just updated to 10.6 today, and I don't know if it is a problem with the new operating system or with my aging machine (most likely my machine because it is a '06 MB). I know it is not the CD because I can play it on my surround sound at home with no skips. Any ideas how to fix the issue?

TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly. How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

I could not find an option to "report a problem".
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 item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

Hello, do you know that when you play a song skips or returns and does not play properly?

HT1657 My movie rental freezes and does not play properly

I rented a movie and when I pressed play it would not play. When it finally started to play it would freeze and looked very digital.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.

Imported .mov file does not play in Flash export

I have imported a .mov file as a background for a flash banner I want to put on my website. The exported flash file plays all of the text animations, but the .mov background does not work -- it's just frozen on the first frame. I have read similar problems with QT exports, but I haven't found any similar flash problems. Thanks for any help.

I think it might be necessary to look at the Inspector in QuickTime. Open the .mov file in QuickTime and go to Window > Show Movie Inspector:
In the info window that comes up, under the Format: field you want to look at the second row where it tells you the audio track format:
In this example, this particular clip is in a really odd format. It is MPEG Layer 2 (no Layer 3 which is MP3 format) at 32Khz, Mono. Preferably for anything in iMovie or iDVD you would prefer the Inspector to look like this:
Linear PCM, 16bit (etc) 2 channels, 48kHz. This can be accomplished by downloading and installing MPEG Streamclip. Open the program and drag the .mov clip into the applicationw window (with five dots in it). Then under the File Menu choose Export to QuickTime:
Then go to the Compression pull-down menu and choose Apple Intermediat Codec (AIC):
Then under the Audio section, leave the audio pulldown to uncompressed but do set the sample rate to 48kHz instead of Auto:

Audio cd does not play properly

I have an early 2008 macbook with a cd/dvd combo drive. My problem is audio CDs will not play or import properly. The music scratches and pops and sometimes there is no sound at all. When I try to import the audio, sometimes the files will only be 10 seconds long, but the track on the cd is 7 minutes. Also when importing a CD some of the tracks in iTunes say "Not Available" where the length of the track is listed. DVDs, on the other hand, play fine.
I'm not using burned discs. These are brand new audio CDs.

ITunes 7.02 does not play properly on Windows XP Computer

I was given a 20 GB click wheel iPod in 2004. It went sick and I was given a new 30 GB 5th generation. Prior to updating iTunes to version 7.02 for Windows iTunes always worked well in playing from computer through an Onkyo stereo amp and speakers. With the new 7.02 it will jump to another song, (about 2400 songs installed) as well as a movie and a game. In addition, it jumps from one song to someplace else, not the next song on the list.
It does not do this on the iPod itself. It works as it should. Is this a matter of 7.02 not quite being ready for prime time, or is there something it requires that earlier versions did not and I have failed to grasp?
The computer has two gigabytes of DDRAM at 400 Mhz and 120 GB of hard disk space with almost half available. Sound card is Sound Blaster Audigy 24 bitX-Gamer.

I told you that I was embarrassed to ask the question re iTunes. In iTunes 7.02 in the control menu there is an item called "Shuffle." It was clicked, so it was doing what it was supposed to do, "shuffling." I never use shuffle, and have no idea how it was selected. I'll take the easy way out and blame Apple for making it a default when I made the upgrade to 7.02.
Moral to the story is RTFM and all menus and settingss.

HT1320 ipod nano 3g from EBay does not see my downloaded itunes but my pc sees them when connected to the nano

I can connect the ipod, the pc recognizes it, can download my itunes and see them at a latter date, they are all mp3 files. The ipod knows that the right amount of merory was used (3.4 G) but does not see any music. When I got the ipod the menue was funnyI was able (I think) to do a reset only after one of the Utube videos suggested toggling the lock swith several times, thid in supposedly refurbished device.. Is there such a thing as downloading original software to the nano? Also, the itunes were on a 1g device. Could my itunes software on the pc be out of date for this device? If so, could that be fixed? My android (unfortunately trashed) had no trouble accepting the download and playing them. Thanks, Bob

Sounds like your iPod's software is corrupt. Connect it to iTunes and restore it. This will wipe all data from the iPod, reset all settings back to their defautls, and install a fresh copy of the iPod's software onto the device.

Then resync all of your music back over to it.

HDV imported from After Effect not playing smooth

Hi,
I work with HDV footage from Sony V1E in FCP. For some reason, i need to do a few things in AE. I then export it there, work it out and rexport it from AE. There I use the HDV 1080/25fps quicktime compression. When I bring it back to FCp, it even shows as no need to be rendered on my TimeLine. But it doesn't play correctly at all. Like if it was to big or... i don't know... I can;t even render it since it appears as not needing it...
What can I do? Help would be very much appreciated...
Thx
Federico

If it looks good in AE then the aspect will be correct already (tends to get set incorrectly when using capture cards like decklink etc), have you tried forcing FCP to render the AE footage on the timeline (tick full in render all then press Option+R)? The HDV codec is really harsh, it could be the multi converting is introducing the error you are seeing. I tend to export using the animation codec, then re-render everything in FCP, not ideal when you have time constraints.
One last thought, have you checked the AE output setting has field rendering enabled or not, this is independent of the timeline setting.

Youtube does not play properly

iPod touch pauses/hangs while playing the youtube video even though the speed of the connection is 2Mbps. The same video on computer downloads very quickly. Is there any fix to the problem?

I am experiencing the same problem, but it's not consistent. My problem might be related to network traffic? I notice the problem more in the evenings. YouTube videos load on the iPod Touch, but will hang or stutter. Resetting the iPod doesn't make any difference. (The same videos play without issue on my laptop.) Then, the next morning the same videos will load and play on the iPod Touch - completely without issue. I am a Comcast home subscriber. I use 1 - 3 laptops, wi-fi printer and a Roku radio, all accessing a Netgear router. It doesn't seem to make a difference if any or all of the wi-fi devices are in use. The only difference seems to be time of day?

Downloaded file does not play properly

I started downloading a movie to rent, but when playing movie the picture is all scrambled. I tried deleting file and starting again, but it seems to restart where I stopped it. What can I do ?

Question 1: Is it possible to listen to the song on my Sandisk MP3 player?
No.
Question 2: Can I simply burn the m4p to an audio cd-rom?
Yes, you can burn it to a CD-R or CD-RW as a standard audio CD.
A CD-ROM cannot be written to.

Imported music CD does not show up in iTunes in my iMac.

I imported a new music CD to iTunes in my iMac running the latest OSX 10.8 but I cannot find the music in my iTunes library. Search by album name or artist shows no result. Yet, when I tried to reimport the same CD, I am told that the album/track by the same name(s) already exist in the library. I looked at the preference and all the pull down menus but no luck. I appreciate if someone could help me.

The music I buy in the Iphone does not play in itunes

When I buy music on my Iphone 4 and then sync with Itunes on my PC, the songs appear in the list but does not play. and then some songs on my Iphone 4 does not play properly or play other song. what is wrong?

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
2011 Transferring your iTunes library - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive/ - An article with good background information, particularly if you are not sure your media files are all grouped for quick solution above. Unfortunately it uses the single term "transferring library" for two very different moves; relocating just your media (not recommended unless you really need this configuration) and relocating media+database (really your whole "library"). Make sure you understand the difference before electing to move only media.
If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
