Itunes loses soundoutput on trackchange

Hi.
I stream music from itunes to my Denon AVR 1912. The network is built with a Fritzbox 6630 router. ( i also tried a 7270).
My system is Windows 8.1 and on my second pc Windows 7. (both with same error)
to the problem:
My receiver is found in itunes and also plays a few songs without any problem. However after a few tracks, on trackchange i lose the soundoutput on my AVR.
Itunes keeps on playing the song, but i can't hear anything till i skip the track manually. Than it will work again for a few tracks.
My music is stored on a Buffalo NAS. (implemented in windows as a Drive L: )
Can anyone please help me? Is that a known error?
Best regards

Morph,
All I can suggest is to let Apple know your opinion by submitting this form:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
Then it will be "wait and see" whether or not it gets any results.

ITunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Any advice very welcome

iTunes loses my entire library with artwork, playlists and podcasts every time I close the program. Upon restarting it takes at least 15 minutes to rebuild the library and podcasts and a lot longer to replace the artwork, I also lose playlists. I would really welcome some feedback and assistance here and am losing faith in the Apple product. Since iTunes has been updated to version 11 it seems to have caused a lot of issues for many people. I am hopeful of a reply and a resolution. I have approx. 1200 albums at just under 90 Gb. Thanks in advance for any help.

Ditch AVG (at this stage it really does seem to be the problem for some people) and install Microsoft Security Essentials...

ITunes lose track of music files

Every couple of days iTunes loses track of all the songs stored on my PC. As soon as you open iTunes for any user. all songs you attempt to access cannot be found and the exclamation point appears beside all songs listed in the library.
I have centralized all my song files – about 9400 files - on an internal secondary drive “e:\music\iTunes\iTunes music”. This is set as the default folder for all iTunes users.
I have iTunes v.6.0.4.2 installed for three separate user IDs on a single Dell PC running XP Home Edition. The User IDs and individual iTunes library files – iTunes Library.itl and .xml – are stored in the personal directory – “c:\Documents and Settings\my documents\my music\iTunes – per the defaults when iTunes is installed.
The only way I am able to recover from this is to delete the library files for each user and rebuild the library by going into “file=>add folder to library” and pointing at the iTunes music folder on the ‘e’ drive. I do not lose any music files but this is a very annoying bug which should be fixed. I have looked in the iTunes user forum and many people have experienced similar problems on both PC and Mac environment. None of the suggested fixes on the forum have solved my problem I have also spoken to Apple Support about this problem twice, including a Level 2 support tech. None of them was able to solve this problem.

I have had the same problem. it seems to have stemmed from the upgrade. However, I have over 40 gig of files on an external HD. I was wondering how you reload delete the titles from ITunes and reload them back into ITunes from the external HD. I want to avoid deleting the actual file from the HD; only from ITunes. thoughts?

ITunes loses track of music

iTunes 9.0.1 under SL 10.6.1
How can iTunes lose track of music after I just added an entire folder full of music using the Add to Library command?
I select all my music. Delete all music. Do not move music files to Trash. Select Add to Library. Select the root folder where all of my music is stored. It adds all 18,000+ files. A new list of songs is displayed. As I browse through them, the missing file exclamation points start appearing next to songs. I double-click the missing file, it says it can't locate the song and asks me to help it locate it. I locate it, navigating through the same folder I used above to Add to Library, re-map the missing song. Repeat about 5,000 times.
The songs reside on a secondary hard drive in my MacPro. This is a constant game of cat-and-mouse. After adding a few songs, sometimes iTunes just gets tired and crashes.

If I rename items from within the iTunes interface then iTunes will make the changes and move things accordingly.
Yes, that is what I wrote the box is for.
If I take an item in iTunes and move it in the Finder to the Trash and empty the trash then iTunes will give me the !
And?
That has nohing to do with the Keep box being checked or unchecked.
Uncheck that box then toss a file into the trash and iTunes will still show an exclamation mark.

Itunes loses my songs

Why does itunes lose my songs? they appear one minute but gone the next? I have organize my songs enabled and copy files to folder. I have the latest version of itunes.

Glenn, there is a huge difference between the music no longer showing up in the iTunes library and the music actually being deleted from your computer. Could you do a search and confirm that the music you have labeled "deleted" is actually no longer on your hard drive? Use Windows' search function to locate music files, and either look for specific ones (if you know the file name) or for the format (.mp3, .m4a, etc.).
Just because iTunes can't see the music anymore doesn't necessarily mean it has been removed from your hard drive

My itunes loses the sound when playing through TV/receiver

My itunes loses the sound when playing through TV/receiver. It is my 2nd Apple TV, I have a Mac and PC and I have used 2 different receivers. Any help? If I start the music through Apple TV is doesnt skip but then I cant have it playing through computer at the same time. It amazes me how these littles things arent fixed yet.

I have almost the exact same problem, except that mine is without the iTouch. My itunes is working perfectly - uploading music from CD's, searching for music, syncing with my iPod classic. However when i ask it to play any music it will say that it is playing yet not only will no sound come out but the timer bar will not move either. it is the same with music in the itunes store and happens regardless of what else is happening on my laptop.
i know my sound works fine with all other programs, and i read on another forum that 'repairing' itunes through the control panel fixes it, however this is not the case.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

ITunes loses ALL infomation

Every now and again my iTunes loses all infomation, this isnt a huge problem as i can just import it all again, it's just starting to get very annoying. Anyone know what could be wrong/how to fix it?
Thanks

Welcome to AD!
Vaio users worldwide have been seeing this problem. Some Sony software causes a conflict with iTunes. You need to set the Sony Content Folder Watcher to leave the iTunes folder alone.
Looks like Sony may have put out an update for that in Asia:

ITunes Loses Tracks

Hello good people of the board.
I imported all my files over from my old iMac to my new one and have an annoying problem. iTunes loses tracks seemingly at random. I assumed that it was a glitch during the transfer which caused the little exclamation mark to appear next to tracks meaning that I would have to manually tell iTunes where the file wass. I've noticed that it's starting to happen with tracks imported directly on to my new computer though. I've searched the forums but no-one seems to have this exact problem, all the others seem to be related to external hard drives which I'm not using. Any ideas?

Have you tried 'Advanced:Consolidate Library...' option? I've never needed to do that yet (when I occasionally get the !, I just navigate to the relevant iTunes folder to re-establish the link, but if you're getting a lot of them, maybe you need to Consolidate? )
Try it out, it can't hurt, see if it helps.

Itunes loses library . I updated to 10.3.1.55 and i open Itunes and my entire library is gone

Itunes loses library . I updated to 10.3.1.55 and i open Itunes and my entire library is gone, put all the music back in itunes then next time i open it the library is gone again.I am using window 7 and after a few weeks of this it is driving me crazy.PLEASE HELP

I am afraid troubleshooting this is difficult if it is intermittent. That is why I suggested making copies of iTunes library.itl and iTunes Library.xml then you can restore these copies if the lirbary disappears. Then you only lose data since you copied them.
You can check for plugins by running iTunes>>Help>>Run Diagnostics. You don't need any of the check boxes ticked. Any plug ins will be shown.
Also you can run iTunes in "safe mode" by holding ctrl shift while starting iTunes. This runs iTunes without plug ins.
Think about other software that uses iTunes data - instant messaging that shows what's playing, and anything that might use the iTunes library.
If the problem occurs every time, you can use MSConfig to look for conflicts, but that is not feasible for an intermittent problem.
I would not expect to see a "saving library" message when closing iTunes, that does suggest that something may be slowing it down.
Are you using the default set up- for iTunes, that is everything on your c: drive or are you using an external drive or network drive?

Libraries - how can iTunes lose them?

I am at a loss. iTunes is a famous Apple product and yet it is apparently so unstable that if you dare to move the files, even when following instructions, suddenly you can be left quite helpless, with not a song in sight. I have spent the entire evening resurrecting my iTunes folder on the second attempt, which I moved to my Hard Drive from my external drive, and (at great length) also fixed the artwork which was really muddled (a lot missing that had been there before, as well as some that was quite wrong). Then I decided to make a second library for some work files.
I followed the help file carefully but now I cannot open my entire, large, collection although it is there in the music folder. The new library I gave a new name to, but iTunes does not see it.
It's rather a bleak outlook, isn't it, because I see a lot of unanswered posts on this forum, and that suggests that there is something not quite right with the software, if so many people are having problems and there is not adequate help either in the form of articles or as people online to help sort it out. What a pity!
But if someone can shed light on this, I would be very grateful! It seems that I cannot select the new folder by using preferences. Why not? I am sure I have done it before.

I rip a music Cd. It goes to the itunes music folder. I transfer this ripped Cd out of the itunes music folder. I then go to the itunes library and delete all music in that library from that ripped Cd. I use the add to library pointing itunes to where I stored those music files and I will not lose my files now that they are no longer located in the itunes music folder by deleting any file from the itunes library.
Hi.
I'm struggling but making some progress. I did find the artwork I was installing last night (that's good) but not where I expected, and I found all sorts of iTunes files all over the place. I think what I've got is actually what you described, as I did drag my music folder over from the external drive and dropped it into a new (named differently) folder, but I have no idea now whether iTunes is pointing to that folder or not. It does not contain a data file called iTunes Library. The 'good' album artwork folder is somewhere else!
Where are all the files that you need to run iTunes on your set-up?
I think one problem that many of us must be running into is the naming of the components. You said that you delete all the music in your iTunes Library - but I don't think you can't do that unless you mean delete the data file called 'iTunes Library'. What I suppose you did is delete all the music files in 'iTunes Music'. But I don't see how iTunes knows where to look for the files in the place that you put them - because that folder will not have the iTunes data files with it.
And did you know that the iTunes Music folders all contain data files that look identical to the data files in the iTunes folder but I am not sure if they are....What are they? For example, in among my music, looking just like one of my albums is a folder called 'Album Artwork'. And I'll bet you've got one too.
In other words, iTunes makes an 'iTunes' folder with various data files in it and your music folder called 'iTunes Music' and then, inside 'iTunes Music' are some files with identical names to the data files. Why are they there? Can I delete them? Why is the structure of this set-up not explained anywhere? More to the point, how do I put it all back together again into one operating whole?!
I hope some people will think about this but I can't get back for a few days.

Will uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes lose alll my iPod Touch data

My iPod touch 5 stopped responding. I opened iTunes so I could restore it and got a message that said I needed a newer version of iTunes. I GOOFED and installed a new version instead of updating iTunes. Now I can't open iTunes. If I uninstall and reinstall iTunes will I lose all my data from my iPod? Is ther a way to revert back to the older version of iTunes so I can then update the iTunes software? I am using Windows XP on my computer.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

ITunes loses my library and playlists for no apparent reason!

I opened up my iTunes today, and my library and playlists are not there! This is the second time it's happened in the last week. The last time I solved it by doing: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1967 and it worked temporarily, but it was my old-old playlists and stuff. What can I do to get my most recent library and playlists back? I see them in my folder....why is iTunes not connecting with my folder? I hope you can help.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.
