If you sync the episodes downloaded to your computer over to the device then there is no need for 3G data usage, however if the podcast app is set up to check for new episodes it may refresh the feed, which could involve a tiny data transfer.

New 7.01 Problem: iTunes locking up while scanning for "playback gaps."

Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? When I open iTunes, it immediately begins scanning for "playback gaps" and locks up after maybe 20-30 songs...and it does not consistently lock up on any one song it is scanning.
This is most frustrating: the 7.01 upgrade has rendered iTunes non-functional.
Any help would be appreciated.

I USED to be able to get a playlist or two, I had gotten 5 GB of music back on it by putting 1-2 playlists on, ejecting, plugging back in, rinse, repeat. Now iTunes locked up AGAIN, checked the iPod, NO MUSIC. Really glad I bought this ******* piece of **** two years ago! Totally worth my money!
Now, on top of all this, I find this in the help section.
Symptoms
You may notice the following symptoms on your Windows PC after installing the iCloud Control Panel, iTunes 10.5 or later, or Safari 5.1 or later:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
iTunes is slow to respond.
Windows is slow to respond.
iTunes stops responding when backing up or syncing with an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Oh, so you mean that since you guys released 10.5, (and its now up to 10.6.??) people have had this issue of their iTunes not responding? What the ****. So basically since 10.5 people have had their iTunes not working correctly? Fix this crap.
I already did the LSP check thing, only one besides the apple one are two windows ones that are up to date and should be there. There is no other help to be had. What a joke.

ITunes 10.6/Quicktime 7 1080p playback issue/frame skipping

I have a playback issue with the 1080p videos on the recent version of iTunes - 10.6. I also tried playing the same videos on Quicktime where I was able to find that the videos were playing at around 20fps as opposed to their normal rate - 24fps~25fps.
I seem to barely meet the 1080p playback requirements on iTunes, but I know that I'm able to watch 1080p videos on Window Media Player(WMP) 12 without any issues. Aside from WMP, I'm able to watch 1080p videos on Youtube whenever hardware acceleration is enabled. I assume that WMP utilizes hardware acceleration as well.
The playback issue/frame skipping is probably caused by iTunes 10.6 not using hardware acceleration.

After downloading iTunes all media players have choppy playback

I got a new computer and my CD and DVD playback was great until I downloaded iTunes. Now all my CDs and DVDs play back choppy/stuttering/etc. on any media players that came with my computer and iTunes. I know it is a software issue, but I don't know much else.
Can anyone help me please??

Just an off the cuff suggestion: Have you run your Windows updater since you got your computer? Do you have all the most recent available drivers for your computer's components? You should be able to check your computer mfg's website to verify this.
Good luck! (And be patient, I'm sure others will chime in with other suggestions as well!)

Can not seem to get iTunes v 7.0.2 to playback properly

Have latest version of iTunes. System is clean and tuned up. Since v 7.0 I have not been able to watch a downloaded iTunes TV show without video skipping, audio sputtering. Some older iTunes downloads seem to play fine, but for the most part most TV shows can no longer be seen in full screen mode without these skipping. sputtering problems. This problem even happens often in the very small screen mode. Have updated Direct X and uninstalled iTunes and even reverted back to v 6 and same problem stayed for new downloaded TV shows. iTunes has not worked right since I installed v 7.0. And since it doesn't work right with v 6.0 now I am at a loss. Are there any suggested solutions to view and properly hear the downloaded shows? iTunes email support has not beeen helpful at all: heck, if they respond at all!
HP Ze 4230 Pavilion/ Notebook Windows XP O/S XP Home, Sp 2, Itunes 7.0, 40 GB HDD, 1.83 Ghz, 512 RAM, external 250 GB HDD,

Heck, that is nothing. I just downloaded v 7.02 and none of the problems I had with v7 have been fixed. iTunes still crashes, and if it doesn't crash the gapless playback thing freezes by song 28, and really I'm starting to hate Itunes because of this. I can't even add new songs to my library because of crashes. Will Apple ever fix these problems, or are we just SOL until version 8 comes out?

ITunes/QuickTime on Windows 7 - HD Playback Stutter

I can't seem to properly playback HD video files in iTunes or QuickTime without the whole file stuttering.
System Specs:
Core i7-920
6GB RAM
80GB Intel SSD
1TB Western Digital Black HDD
nVidia GTX 460 768MB
Windows 7 64-bit
iTunes 10.4.1.10
Quicktime 7.7
So, I have a system that has more than enough horsepower to play the files. I watch Blu-ray discs on the system all the time.
The files themselves are actually Blu-ray rips of my own movies that I encoded with Handbrake to the Apple TV 2 format. (H.264, Low Complexity, 720 resolution)
Weird thing is that I can play the same files on my iPhone 4, iPad 1, Apple TV 2 with no problems at all. My computer has more capability than all of these devices put together. My CPU usage is at about 15% during playback.
I can play the files just fine in Windows Media Player 11.
I've also tried playing the files back on a 32-bit Windows machine with the same result.
I had a similar issue a while back when trying to play HD Podcasts from Revision 3. I got frustrated and went back to the non-HD versions after a while.
I'm perplexed on this one.
Any ideas?

Just to follow up.
I did a little more research/testing. I played the same HD file (Blu-ray rip) on my 2011 MacBook Air in QuickTime and it played perfectly. I was in OSX Lion when I played the file.
If you asked me, it's looking like there is some kind of problem with QuickTime for Windows. Because I believe that iTunes is still using QuickTime to play video files.
I would still like to hear from anyone else if they have any ideas.

Itunes freezes everytime it "determines gapless playback"

ITunes immediately crashes on "determing gapless playback"

iTunes crashing on "determining gapless playback". I've read much on the subject but immediately after opening iTunes I get the pinwheel and have to force quit. Is there a way I can access iTunes settings without opening it?

I'm not sure that was the problem. I have the same 20GB 4g colour ipod, and have also updated to ITunes 7. I connect the ipod, sync some tunes and it then starts "Determining Gapless Playback Information" (which I don't want it to do since evidently my 4G can't handle gapless). Gets so far then freezes, and the only way to unfreeze is to disconnect the Ipod. I also have an external HD with my Itunes library on it (Iomega Mininmax 250GB connected via USB2). Tempted to roll back to IT6? Any other suggestions?

ITunes cannot recognize touch/audio/video playback will not function

All right, I asked apple support about this and didn't even get the dignity of a response, so here goes. My computer crashed a while ago, and when we rebooted it, this started: Whenever I plug my iPod into the computer, I get a message saying "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again." So I followed those instructions, and I still get the same result.
A reason I think this might be happening is because I installed the iPod Touch update (not the one you have to pay for, but the one that puts that grey strip across the bottom of the home page), then the computer crashed. So maybe the update is installed on the iPod but not on iTunes? I'm not even sure how to get the update again to be honest.
There are a number of things that we have not reinstalled yet on the computer, like our audio/video playback. Whenever iTunes is started I get this: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback may not function properly." And it doesn't--we have no sound on the computer right now. That is something I would like to change ASAP, I'm just dying to hear some new music.
And when I say we have no sound, I mean zero sound capabilites: iTunes, Windows Media Player, even the internet, there is nothing at all.
I really don't know much about computers, and I just didn't know where else to turn. Thanks to anyone who thinks they can help.

Hey dbsabres06,
Use the steps in this article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698 to uninstall and reinstall the Apple software on the computer. The Apple Mobile Device support is the driver that allows the iPhone and iPod touch to be recognized.
For the audio configuration issue, try the tips in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304424
Not hearing audio from system events, or applications like windows media player might be a driver issue.
Try running your windows updates or checking your computer manufactures website for updates.

How to stop itunes quitting in the middle of playback

Hi everyone. Does anyone know how to set my iTunes or Mac up so that iTunes won't quit in the middle of playback? I'm streaming to my TV using Apple TV, and after a while, my screen goes blank and when I go back to my computer to check, I find that iTunes has logged out or quit. I've already set my energy saving preferences to 'never sleep' but this still happens and there is no iTunes preference to prevent it from happening. Any help would be most helpful. Thank you!

Pages version? Number, please!

ITunes 7.5 hangs during CD playback - OS X

I posted the below last night. Today while checking for followups, I found that it was under Windows version of iTunes (even though a couple other posters may be referring to OS X as well based on their signature) My comments are for only for Mac.

Re: itunes 7.5 hangs during cd download preview
Posted: Nov 30, 2007 10:46 PM
I am having the same problem on 2 different G5 Dual PPC systems running 7.5. This occurs when playing commercial (redbook) CDs..... during CD playback iTunes stalls after the 2nd song (usually at time marker 0:02). I have no problem playing back any music already in my iTunes library (99% AIFF format). Something is up with this version! Please correct it asap. thanks.

When I searched I missed this thread: Problem Playing CDs in iTunes 7.5 http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1225880&tstart=0 which has the solution/fix. Seems to be the "Use Error Correction when reading audio CDs" setting in the Advanced >Importing iTunes preferences. The other solutions deleted plist files which essentially reset the preferences to default which has Use Error Corrections off.
I am listening to a CD now which did not stall at the normal track location.
I have to confirm that a CD does not stall when ripping(import CD) with the Use Error Correction setting ON.

Why is iTunes skipping through songs during computer playback?

Over the past couple months, after adding new files to iTunes, when I'm listening to them on my computer, it will sometimes arbitrarily skip the next song. Each song skips at a different place, but it's always the same places every time I replay the tracks. When I listen to them in Windows Media Player, they play all the way through. I know it's not an issue of file corruption. What can I do about this?

Hi LD,
Take a look at the article below and try playing the tracks in Safe Mode. If you no longer hear the playback issue, you may be able to resolve the issue by removing outdated 3rd-party plug-ins as suggested below.
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3430
There are several ways an add-on can cause iTunes to act erratically, such as those listed below:
Loss of iTunes functionality, such as the Visualizer
Distortion or irregularity in the iTunes interface
Slow performance
iTunes won't open or quits unexpectedly
You see this alert while syncing: "... cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified."
If you see the above symptoms or other unusual behavior, you can disable any third-party plug-ins by opening iTunes in Safe Mode:
OS X: Hold down Option-Command.
Windows: Hold down Shift-Control while opening iTunes.
You should see this message before iTunes starts up: "iTunes is running in Safe Mode. Visual plug-ins you have installed have been temporarily disabled."Note: This is different than Safe Boot or Safe Mode for Mac OS X. You may need to test both at the same time to isolate all third-party interference.Click Continue and see if any issues persist. If your issues are resolved with iTunes running in Safe Mode, check the following:
Consult the vendor of any plug-ins you installed to see if they're compatible with your version of iTunes and check for any updates that may be available.
Close iTunes and move third-party add-ons to the Desktop to troubleshoot the behavior. iTunes stores these plug-ins and scripts in these locations:
Mac: /Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/

ITunes 12.1.0.71 broke "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" option

After upgrading to iTunes 12.1.0.71 (64 bit) on my PC, iTunes is no longer organizing my iTunes media folder.
Example:
I drop a video into "automatically add to iTunes" folder
Video appears as a Home Video in iTunes as expected
I go into "get info" > Options for the video and set the Media Kind to "Movie"
Video now appears in the Movie lists, however(!)
iTunes does NOT move the file out of iTunes/Home Videos into iTunes/Movies on my hard drive like it used to
So now I have Movies piling up in the "Home Video" folder instead of getting auto-sorted correctly. The "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" option I have enabled in preferences is, obviously, not working.
This is happening for "TV Shows" as well. In addition, I can no longer set disc (season) and track (episode) numbers for TV Shows so that they're renamed with the season/episode numbers in front of the episode name. There used to be a work-around where I would shift-click "Get Info" to get into the old style pane / control panel, but this no longer works. I can't figure out how to rename files from within iTunes to force the issue. If I rename the files by hand before importing into iTunes, iTunes erases the disc/track numbers off the front of the filenames.
Does anyone know what's wrong? Why are my videos not auto-sorting into the correct folder / sub-folder hierarchy on my hard drive? Why is everything piling up in my "Home Video" folder even though iTunes has been told that they are NOT home videos? Help!

iTunes 12.0 had an issue with not moving video files around after tag/media kind changes. That seems unchanged. A workaround is to uncheck the Keep organized option, click OK, then set it active again.
The iTunes 12.1 version of Get Info appears, at first glance, to include all of the properties that were only available in the old school get info dialog in the previous version. Also gone are the Add Field button for optionally enabled fields, and the autocomplete on space bug. The old dialog doesn't seem to be available from any keyboard combination, although I quite possibly haven't tried everything.
