ITunes goes on PAUSE erratically for no reason, have to hit space bar
I have a problem with either iTunes or my keyboard!
When playing music, sometimes the music will stop (iTunes goes on pause)
and I have to hit the space bar to continue, very annoying.
Is this a known issue with iTunes 8.1.1 ?
Did anyone experience such a problem?
It's a brand new iMac I bought a month ago, I would be surprised
if the keyboard was the problem. But then again...
Thanks (iMac, Leopard 10.5.6, iTunes 8.1.1, USB keyboard, wireless internet,
Is my wireless D-Link messing around with my keyboard cable transmissions!!?!? )
I though it might be my Bose sound system on the floor causing vibrations, but my keyboarrd is on a table and the last time it stopped will playing classical piano, not a lot of bass there.
Try moving your computer or your sound system to see if that helps.
If no joy, then as your computer is so new, contact your Apple Store as it will still be under warranty.

Fan going into full blast for no reason
the fan in my macbook has been going to 6000 rpm for no reason. like when im not doing anything, suddenly i hear the fans start spinning. usually, at 2500(min speed for my mb) rpm, it is barely audible. then suddenly i hear this low hum, and i look at the smcfancontrol, and notice that my fan's at 6100rpm. any idea why? is this normal? oh, and i usually have my itunes on most of the time.
Yes, do check Activity Monitor (just type activity in Spotlight). Click on the CPU column and the most demanding application (the one that's sucking up your CPU cycles) will show up at the top of the list.
For me when this happened (twice so far in a week or so) has been Airport. So just disable or force quit the offending application. For me I just turned the Airport off, waited about 15 seconds and turned it back on and all was well.
Good luck

I authorized my home sharing on my itunes for mac to share to my itunes on windows PC, but for some reason my music isn't fully sharing/syncing. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem?
Hi, Dave.
If you're using the BlackBerry browser, you can't configure anything to bypass the RIM servers. I believe you may do so by using the Opera browser, but I haven't tried it myself so cannot comment with authority.
I hope that clears up the issue for you.

so I've downloaded a tv series from iTunes onto my macbook pro, for some reason the episodes on my iTunes won't play at all. no sound and no images. any suggestions and help?
Hi,
As you have match, I suggest that you create a new library by holding ctrl whist launching iTunes. Select create new library. Sign into iTunes Store and activate match. You will now have access to your music and will be able to stream your music.
Options : get a new external drive formatted for mac and either download music from match or copy music from old drive to new one. Alternatively you could reformat old drive and download music from match - I would not be comfortable using this option as it means erasing drive before being able to use with mac.

IPhone 4 Buzzer going On and Off for no reason.
Has anyone had any problems of the iPhone Buzzer going on and off for no reason? I rebooted the iPhone but still doing the same thing. Help!
My wife has a 3gs and I have an iphone 4 and have no such issue.
Have you restored as new?
If it is still inside the one year warranty you can make an appointment at the local genius bar and they will replace it, if they cannot solve it.

Does anyone know how to speak to human being in customer service for iTunes? I got charged for something and have no clue what I got charged for. I have not used iTunes yet. I have spent a lot of time trying to get this resolved on the apple site and there just seems no way to do it. Thanks.
iTunes Customer Service is an online service unless they feel they need to call you.

iTunes will only play one song. I have to hit play to start a new song. I have the shuffle on and I am in a playlist. I am running Windows 7. How do I correct this to randomly play music, by itself?
That's consistent with all the tickboxes to the left of the tracks (in Song view) being unchecked.
Go into Song view and Ctrl-click one of the empty boxes to do a "global recheck".
If you can't see the tickboxes, head into your General preferences tab and select "Show list tickboxes" as per the following screenshot (it's for an earlier version of iTunes, but the boxes are in roughly the same place in the recent versions 11.x): -
Why after I updated my iPhone 4S to the new software it goes dim on its on? I have to hit the sleep button or go to setting to fix it. This has to be a bug.
Hello 6underwood,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581
If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.
Best of luck,

IPad Air goes back to homepage for no reason why
Why is my iPad Air gong back to home page for no reason how to cure please
You could try resetting all settings but I really don't think that is going to work. It won't hurt anything and you will not lose any data, it just takes time to re-enter the device settings again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
If that fails, I think that I would be inclined to backup the iPad, restore the iOS, restore the backup and see how that goes.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
If that fails, you might want to think about restoring as new, but before you do that .... There have been a number of discussions about the iPad Air having low memory crashes. Do a search in the upper right portion of this site and enter iPad Air Low Memory Crashes and take a look at some of those discussions for more ideas. -
I have a lot of songs in my Itunes library. However, for some reason, they have disappeared and I only have one song left. When I check under My Music, I can see all the songs but can't access them through Itunes. Any idea why this happended and how I can fix it?
I think I fixed this problem a few years ago by literally copying and pasting all my audio content into the iTunes library folder. I can't remember what is called of the top of my head and I don't know if this will still work.

Is the iPhone 5 going to be recalled for any reason?
My friend keeps saying the iPhone 5 will be recalled for bunch of different season, is the iPhone 5 going to be recalled for any sort of reason?
There is no way to foretell the future howver, if this is the same friend who told you that the world is going to end on December, 21, 2112, you shouldn't believe him.

ITunes application keeps popping up for no reason.
For some reason my iTunes application keeps popping up to the front of the screen to be on top of all of my other windows. this is a problem because not only does it prevent me from doing anything on my computer like type or read things, but if I am typing or doing something and listening to music, it stop the music I am playing, or switching my play list or what have you. I have tried to repair and reinstall the program but it continue to do this. Can someone help me please?
I had the same problem and I finally figured out what was causing iTunes to pop up as the active window. I use FireFox and I have the add-on Foxy-Tunes, when I disabled that iTunes would work perfectly fine! I think the problem is that iTunes just updated to iTunes 10 and Foxy-Tunes hasn't gotten an update so it works with iTunes 10 yet.
I hope this helps! -
So I was playing an album from my iPod through iTunes like normal, and the album ended. I switched to iTunes view to change to a new one and it said "iPod is done syncing" (I did not choose to sync, nor did anything appear different). I tried to click on a song to play and iTunes froze. I had to restart iTunes and when I ejected my iPod (properly) the syncing sign was still turning on my iPod. As of now my iPod only skips through every song I try to play, but when I plug it into iTunes every song FROM my iPod plays perfectly.
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. Everything was working fine before when it decided to do this with very little effort, therefore I would like it fixed with very little effort.
I have tried resycing my iPod multiple times (every time I eject it from iTunes it appears to do so properly [iPod icon goes away] but the syncing icon still appears on my iPod).
I have almost 58 GB of music on my iPod so I'm not interested in starting from scratch. Also a good portion of my music is on a computer I don't have access to anymore so that's out of the question. Since the music seems to be uncorrupted (still plays from iPod in iTunes) I want a way to fix this iPod issue without having to erase anything.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.
