ITunes 7 Songs are skipping and static like

I just installed itunes 7 and after I installed and opened it up and now every song that I go to play is skipping. I have tried many songs from my collection and they all are like this. Please help I have 3500+ songs and I do not have a backup copy of them.
Thanks,
-Rob

Have same problem. Apple borked itunes on win32. iTunes playback now is a single milisecond skipping. I have a creative EM-U 1212m card http://www.emu.com/support/ and Quicktime media/movies and iTunes audio/video now are borked.
Apple really has to get over the Hubris and do some quality testing and controll before they unleash this kind of crap to paying iPod customers. The FreeBSD team never ever releases this kind of untested garbage into stable releases. iTunes7 and the new QT should be BETA or perhaps ALPHA not released to the general public.

  • Songs are skipping when played on secondary hard drive

    Hey all,
    I have a late-2011 Macbook Pro. I installed an SSD and then replaced my optical drive with my original HDD. I re-linked my iTunes media folder to be on the old drive. Everything in my library is playable, however songs are skipping and sometimes iTunes freezes completely. Any reason this would happen? Could it have something to do with spotlight indexing or is it a sign of something more serious? Just yesterday all of these songs were playing fine with the HDD as my primary.
    Thanks!

    I am not familiar with the insides of a MBP but I am wondering if putting a HDD on a bus designed for an optical drive is what is causing the problem.

  • Songs are skipping on new ipod

    I just bought a new ipod shuffle and all of my songs are skipping and breaking up. Some songs are bought from itunes and some are from CD's. Please help!!!!

    Ok, I converted all the music in my itunes library to ACC format, then re-synced to ipod. I am still having the same problem with some songs. These cds/music were previously on my computer that had been imported through either real player or windows media player a while back, prior to having itunes.
    I have heard that the cds need to be imported through itunes in ACC format. If you don't have the original cds anymore, you can re-burn them to a cd and then import again in itunes. Apparently it can't be music that has been previously put on your computer through real player, etc.
    I haven't had time to try this yet so I'm not sure if it works. I will let you know!

  • My songs are skipping in i tunes when i am playing games or moving the mouse doing other things and only happens on computer not my devices

    My songs are skipping in itunes and it is just on computer and happens when i burn to cds songs skip. My other devices the songs don't skip. And skipping is when i am playing a game or moving mouse and checking on something and it is most of songs.

    Hello Cathy 21084,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    Troubleshooting songs that skip
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3217
    Make sure song files are not damaged
    If a specific song skips when you play it, it may be damaged.
    1. Delete the song and update your iPod.
    2. Insert the CD you used to import the song and import it again. If the CD is scratched or dirty, iTunes may not be able to import the song. Try cleaning the CD or use a different one. If the song was imported or created using a third-party application, try the following:
    Use iTunes to import the content directly from the CD.
    Convert the content to an iPod-compatible format using iTunes.
    3. Update your iPod with the new copy of the song.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • After updating to iOS 6.1.5 on my iPod Touch 4th Gen, Some of my songs are skipping to the next song after 30 seconds of play...

    After updating to iOS 6.1.5 on my iPod Touch 4th Gen, some of my songs are skipping to the next song after 30 seconds even though the iPod appears to be playing the current song. Some of my songs are mp3 files that have been playing fine for years...
    Anybody else experiencing this issue?
    I'm using the latest version of iTunes and i don't have that problem on my PC. The only difference as far as i can tell is the updated iOS & firmware...
    AJ

    Yes, other have. If the songs play OK in iTunes on the computer
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • When I create a playlist and sync it to my iPhone not all of the playlist transfers over.  All of the songs are there and are playable they just do not show up on the playlist.

    When I create a playlist and sync it to my iPhone not all of the songs on the playlist transfer over.  All of the songs are there and are playable they just do not show up on the playlist.  For example, in itunes on my computer a playlist has over 100 songs, but when I sync my phone, my iphone only shows 60 songs.  I can go into my phone and add the missing songs to the playlist, but the next time I sync my phone the songs are gone again.

    Wondering if you haven't been bitten by the new "feature" of iOS 5, as was my son. turingtest2 explained it very well in reply to my own query about "missing" songs in playlists.
    Here's that thread...

  • Manually Manage Music option is GONE...when I plug in my IPHONE (which is already synced to this computer) I can no longer manually manage songs. I have already opted to do this but all my songs are grey and it won't allow me to manage ANY songs?

    I cannot delete or add any songs to my Iphone (or my son's ipod) for some reason..all the songs are grey and cannot be manually managed. Any feedback is appreciated.

    You will need to restore your phone as a new one using the itunes on your computer.  This WILL erase everything on the phone but it will let you change the name of the phone and then you can add content to it.

  • TS3697 all of my songs are gone and when i try to sync again the sync is 2 seconds long and nothing happens

    all of my songs are gone and when i try to sync again the sync is 2 seconds long and nothing happens plus all of my photos from my computer synced to my phone and i cant delete them and i dont have neough storage PLEASE HELP ABOUT TO CRY

    1. Have you applied sync settings for music to be synced to the iPhpne?
    2. Photos that are synced to the iPhone cannot be deleted directly from the iPhone
    To delete photos and videos from your device
    To delete synced photos and videos
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

  • How do i copy an ipod playlist into itunes- the songs are already in my library

    how do i copy an ipod playlist into itunes- the songs are already in my library

    I found out an easy way....
    With iPod connected to iTunes, right click on the iPod playlist you want to export, choose the Export option on the menu that appears. 
    iTunes will prompt for a location and format to save the file.  Save playlist as an XML file using whatever name and location you want (I saved as "songs.XML" to my desktop).
    Then, in iTunes, go to File - Library - Import Playlist and selet the XML file.  The playlist will be created in the iTunes library and will contain any tracks that are refereced in the original playlist that already exists in the library.
    There may be a mesage, "Some of the songs in the (filename).XML were not imported because they could not be fund".  This is because the songs you are importing have to already be in your iTunes library.
    I just did this with my kid's iPod and it worked great.  I found this tip on Apple Support Communities (discussions.apple.com/thread/2577582?start=0&tstart=0).  It was posted by SpyglassSally and my original search question in Goole was was, "How do i copy a playlist from an iPod to iTunes".
    Thanks for the responses and I hope this helps anyone else.

    Delete the song from your library and re-download it from the Purchases section of the iTunes Store.

  • Since upgrading to ios5 doesnt play music from my playlists allthough songs are installed, and some of the applications are crashing

    since upgrading to ios5 on my iphone4 does not play music (ipod) from my playlists allthough songs are installed, and some of the applications are crashing

    Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
    plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
    in iTunes select the phone or iPad
    Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
    Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
    Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
    Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.
    Now check them both back on and everything should copy back onto it.
    Working now !!!!!

  • I just transferred music from a desktop to a laptop to put on itunes. After this exhausting process of renaming and renaming unnamed tracks, when I play one on itunes the song title disappears and though the song plays, I have to rewrite name of song.

    I just transferred music from a desktop to a laptop to put on itunes. After this exhausting process of renaming and renaming unnamed tracks (b/c itunes made me rename them even after I rewrote the names in the music folder of my computer even though I hadn't put the songs onto itunes beforehand when the tracks were unnamed), when I play one on itunes the song title disappears and though the song plays, I have to AGAIN rewrite the name of the song. Is there an actually answer out there???!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    i guess you are referring to iTunes Match. It sounds as though you haven't downloaded all the content and are trying to play your music over a poor connection.

  • Can I gift my own album on itunes? Im an artist and would like to give my music to a few people for free

    Can I gift my own album on itunes? Im an artist and would like to give my music to a few people for free

    I would presume you can pay and gift the album as you would any other album, even though the album is your own. Not having any content in the iTunes Store, though, I haven't tried it. You probably can't gift it at no charge to yourself, though, if that's what you mean. I'm not aware of any program in the iTunes Store where you get "gratis" codes you can give out. If you want to give your music to a few people free to both them and you, you'll proably need to get the music to them in some other way.
    Regards.

  • I had to reload all my programs after a  hard drive problem. Now certain songs are skipped over or only play for a sec or 2 then it jumps to next song. all songs played before. Some are Itune bought and some are my old music.

    I had to wipe my hard drive clean and reload all my programs. After reloading Itunes, I noticed that some songs will not play, they are skipped over, or the songs plays for 1-2 secs then it skips on to next song. Any ideas what I did wrong? All songs played before and some of affected songs are bought, some are my old library I copied off of CDs

    Could be a lot of things unfortunately, from corrupt firmware, corrupt format on the disk, a problem with the mainboard, or a problem with the hard disk.
    I figure that if the hard dri've was damaged it would always freeze up on the same file at the exact same point in the music wouldn't it's
    Not necessarily. It could be just an intermittent fault.
    I want to Format my Zen Touch and reload the Firmware to start from scratch, but I first want to backup my 28 GBs of MP3 and WMA files. However I noticed that when I transfer the files to my hard dri've, all the ID3 Information is gone. Now adding ID3 info to 28GB of files will take days!
    Strange. Did you edit the tag data on the player? If so what happens is the tag data changes are made in the Music Library but not in the files themselves. There's only one way to write the changes back and this involves getting a copy of MediaSource 3. You then transfer the files back to the PC Music Library, and use an update function to update the files (the PC Music Library will have the same tag data as the Music Library on the player). One problem is that MediaSource 3 is very large, and not available from Creative as a download. I can try and get a copy to you if you can't find it elsewhere.
