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.

  • I am trying to play my ipod shuffle 1st gen in itunes but it will not play. My windows 7 computer recognizes the ipod and I can easily select the songs on my ipod playlist in itunes but cannot play them. Any solutions to the problem?

    I get the feeling some has asked a question "like" this but not exactly that question which makes it really hard for find answers fast to the above question. Therefore, I decided to ask it anyway. Hopefully someone has a good solution that will work.
    Background on the question:
    - I had to erase and reupload song on my ipod 1st gen to my new computer. Apparently the ipod could not be read by the iTunes in my new computer because the playlist cannot be opened in more than one iTunes or in another computer or something like that (this makes no sense). All this was to try and charge my ipod that does not seem to want to charge. It connects perfectly to the computer and I can see the initial blinking yellow lights on the back and front, but won't charge. I am currently working on this problem from other community discussion topics.

    Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
    All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

  • 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 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.)

  • Flash player does not work properly on Windows 7 32 bits

    Hello,
    My flash player does not work properly on Windows 7 32 bits with Firfox and IE8 (lasts versions).
    My Flash player version : 10.0.45.2, but I tried with version 9 too, with same problems.
    I have tried to uninstall, reboot, reinstall several times, ... witch did not worked.
    In fact, it works correctly on some sites, like youtube, but not on some others like :
    http://www.dailymotion.com/ => black screen instead of videos, right click gives flash context menu
    http://www.canalplus.fr/ => videos does not load, right click gives flash context menu
    http://www.myspace.com/ => no audio player, right click gives flash context menu
    some games in http://www.kongregate.com/ => black screen instead of games, right click gives flash context menu
    I have no problem with shockwave in http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/
    No problem too with flash player on http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    But in the Global Privacy Settings panel (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l), I cannot change any settings :
    I cannot check boxes,
    My changes are not saved.
    In most of flash animations, videos, ...,
    when I click on parameters, I cannot do anything, even closing.
    when I am in full screen mode, the message "press escape to exit...." does not disappear.
    Last thing, all those problems was not there when I was on Windows XP, few weeks ago, and appear with my registered Windows 7 premium familly edition, with the same hardware configuration...
    Thank you for your help

  • Can I get an older release of Firefox? 36.0 does not play well with Windows 7.

    Firefox 36.0.4 does not play well with Windows 7. If it opens at all, it freezes within a minute so the screen goes pale and I get the classic spinning circle of death. Then the header says (not responding).
    Ideally I would like to drop back to version 32 or 33, but 34 and 35 had fewer problems.
    Can I find older versions anywhere?

    You can [[Install an older version of Firefox]] any time. But which will cause significant security risk. So If you can't use the latest version of Firefox, we recommend that you use the latest version of another browser.
    If the latest version of Firefox is causing problems for you or you just don't like something about it, please give us feedback about it here:
    [https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback/ Submit your feedback and suggestions about Firefox]
    Anyway head for the ftp for older version but please be careful with these: ftp://ftp.eu.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

  • 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. 
    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 item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • HT1657 I downloaded a film for rental from itunes and it will not play properly,why?

    I rented a film last evening The book of Kells and it will not play properly.  My computer has more than enough memory or whatever it needs and I am using an account I have used in the past with success.  The films starts, then stops, then speeds ahead like it is not successfully loaded.  Any suggestions?

    Where did you download it to and is it a purchase or rental.

  • 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.

    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?

  • What do you do if itunes 10.7 does not load properly?

    i recently got the new Ipod touch 5th generation and i need to update my itunes for it but it wont let me update?? it downloads so far and then a message pops up that says "An error has occurred during the instalation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32", version "8.0.50727.4053", publicKeyToken="1fc8b9a18e3b", processes Architecture="amd64" Pleas refer to Help and Support for more information" Any sugestions as to what i should do?

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • Copied my iTunes music from my Windows 7 computer to my Windows 8 computer and my MP3 songs will not play on my Windows 8 computer?

    How to get iTunes to play my MP3 files in Windows 8.  They played in Windows7.

    I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
    iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
    However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
    To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
    However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes, 
    Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound  from Skype to Windows Media Player,...
