ITunes MiniPlayer skipping multiple tracks?

There's a small bug I've recently encountered while using iTunes (7.6.0.29). It's been happening since 7.5, actually. When I switch to MiniPlayer, using the manual Prev/Next buttons sometimes skips 2-3 songs with one click. No, it's not my mouse sending more than one click, since single clicking on my desktop icons doesn't run them. The problem seems to disappear with full mode controls, but MiniPlayer track buttons cause a few track names to flash past before it starts playing the "next" track.
Any chance this could be caused by the iLike sidebar? If not, has this already been dealt with elsewhere? I couldn't find it on the forums. Appreciate your help in advance, thanks!

Oh, and some additional info, the tracks it skips remain constant. (i.e. if I skip forward and then back, I'm onto the track I was on before, then if I skip forward again it goes forward the same number as last time. So, it's not entirely random.)

  • Ipod skips multiple tracks and sometimes freezes

    I've had my 60 gig ipod video for about 3 weeks and after being initially impressed I find myself using my 60 gig photo more often. The problem with the video is that almost always when playing from a playlist or album the first 4,5, or 6 songs get skipped and after about a 30 second pause the ipod begins playing track 6. When watching a video, fast-forwarding within the same movie works as expected, but when I try to exit to the menu and play a different video the ipod acts real sluggish and occasionally freezes and only a "soft reset" (menu + select) will save me. Likewise when moving backwards in tracks, say from 6 to track 2 the ipod will move to track 2 but before playing will then skip ahead to track 8, 9 or 10.
    I've owned almost every model since the 3 gen and these mp3/aac files have played perfect on all other models. The ipod is nearly full, with over 50 gigs of videos, music, and photos. If you were to ask my opinion, I would say it was due to buggy software or just poor hardware performance. I've tried reformating from hfs to fat32 and the problem still occurs.
    Some things to mention is that my ipod is configured for manual song management. It also works as expected when plugged in via usb as I can play songs on the ipod on my computer with no skipping. Anyone else experiencing any performance issues? Or do I just have to exchange my defective ipod?

    Navigating through videos is slow. It seems that when I start the movie, the HDD starts spinning and loading data into memory, and until it is done spinning, I cannot get out of that video. I've read others have the same problem.
    As far as skipping songs go, do your songs have lyrics? If so, that's another issue we're aware of.

  • ITunes is skipping tracks. Why?

    The iTunes player skips two tracks in a row of an album I bought at iTunes store. All the the other thousands of tracks play OK, but these two won't play, either on the PC or the iPod. Any help? Thanks.

    Hi, Susana.
    Thank you for the question.  If the issue is being experienced on the computer and iPod, it could be an issue with the downloaded files itself.  I would recommend deleting the songs that are giving you the issue and download them again free of charge via the Purchased section of the iTunes Store.  When you selected the songs to delete it will present you with two options.  Make sure to select the option that says keep file as it will delete it from iTunes but not off the computer.

  • How do i stop itunes skipping the tracks

    could somebody help??
    i have just bought a mac and when i play my albums through itunes it skips the track after about 20 secs of it playing

    I have had a similar problem, but it was on  the ipod and it skipped after one second. Make sure you have imported the files from a good source- an incomplete download or a scratched CD could cause this problem. Does this happen with all your music?

  • How do I select multiple tracks in iTunes?

    It's like a hold down control and something else, and then drag the curser to select the songs you want selected. I'm not sure what this shortcut is. Again, I want to select multiple tracks on iTunes so I can move files or delete them. Simply selecting all won't work because the files are different names. Anyone know this shortcut? Thanks!

    If you click a track, hold down shift, and then click another one, it will select all the tracks between those two. Holding down command (the apple key) will allow you to select/deselect individual tracks.

  • My iP5 will not play any track not purchased from itunes Store, red circle with red square inside appears and skips the track, any ideas?

    my iP5 will only play songs purchased formmthe itunes store.
    all over songs, uploaded from cd's on my laptop and dragged into itunes will no longer play, a red circle with a red square in the middle appears and skips the track.
    anybody know why Itunes / iP5 will no longer play all tracks, has worked for years, only stopped with the latest itunes update.

    Hey Kelsieee,
    First, I would try to resolve the issue with the ! in a circle that you're seeing in iTunes. There's some steps in the following article that go over what that ! usually means and how to fix it:

  • Is itunes supposed to crash every time I skip a track?

    So I'm trying to import a CD, well, several CDs...Which makes this very irritating by now!
    I'm importing my CDs, but I don't want every track. I listen to the first track & decide to keep it, I skip to the next one, iTunes crashes.
    I relaunch, start that next track again, I decide I don't want it, I uncheck it. iTunes crashes.
    I even tried tricking it, fast forwarding to near the end of the track & just letting it play through to the next, but as soon as that next track starts, iTunes crashes.
    So I wonder, maybe I should just play it all, then uncheck after wards, no skipping, just the CD as it was meant to be. Nope, iTunes crashes after every track!!! It's ok playing my library, I can even skip! But not on CDs. I am very close to breaking something!
    Anyone else had this problem & fixed it?
    I have tried restarting my Mac, I left it a day & tried again, I have re-installed iTunes from the official site. This all started going wrong after that last update....I really hope i'm not alone & they plan on fixing this!

    Instead of Sharing to iDVD you want to Share to Media Browser. This will save the movie to a special folder inside of iMovie that you can then see from inside the iDVD program.
    Choose Share > Media Browser (it's at the top of the list)
    Choose the Large size and let it roll. It will take a while for it to work.
    When it's finished quit iMovie.
    Open iDVD, Create a new project.
    Go to the button labeled "Media" in the lower right hand corner of the iDVD window, and click it.
    Just above that is a window with some buttons across the top. Click on the button labeled "Movies".
    Inside the window you will see an iMovie star icon, double-click the triangle beside it to see all the movies being shared. Your iMovie project will appear there.
    Drag the iMovie project into your iDVD project.
    The quality of the final DVD is visibly better, sharper than if you were to Share directly to iDVD. So bypass Share to iDVD altogether and see if it stops crashing.

  • I am trying to upload a project with multiple tracks to iTunes.  only the first track seems to be uploading. what do I do?

    I am trying to upload a project from garageband with multiple tracks to itunes but only the first track is uploading. what do i do to make them all upload together?

    Couple of questions:
    What type of Tracks are they (MIDI, AUdio, Drummer)?
    WHen you play your Project, do You hear all Tracks playing?
    What happens when you change the Track order, i.e. A-B-C to B-C-A? WHen you export, do you still get only one Track and if so, is it talways the first Track in the list or a specific Track regardless if it is the first, second, or third?
    Are you sure you don't have any Tracks Muted or Soloed (which auto-mutes the other Tracks)?
    Hope that helps

  • Burning podcast in iTunes USED to create multiple tracks

    I have in the past burned podcasts with multiple chapters to an audio CD. This used to create a cd with multiple tracks. Making it easy to skip around from chapter to chapter by skipping tracks on the CD.
    Now with my new 27in imac and latest software updates. When ever I burn a podcast to a CD, I get it all as one track on the CD.
    I'm trying to burn some of the same AAC podcasts that I've burned before. So that is not the problem.
    Does anyone have any suggestions ? Or is this new single track a new 'feature' ?

  • ITunes 12.1.2.27 can't delete field contents from multiple tracks

    This is new to iTunes 12.1.2.27.
    Try it out: you cannot completely delete the contents of any field in the iTunes album "Get Info" window, when there are multiple tracks selected. Every previous version of iTunes could do this easily.
    For example, I have an album with different comments for several tracks. I simply want to delete all the comments on the album. With all the album tracks selected, I delete the gray "Mixed" text in the Comments field, like in the last version. When I close the Get Info window, nothing has changed. The comments are still there.
    This happens with all the fields. You can no longer delete all the contents of any given field all at once. It's one track at a time or nothing.
    Also, bonus problem: try to cut some text out of these fields with Command-X: Artist, Album, Album Artist, Composer, Grouping and Genre fields. You can't. Command-X does nothing. I think it has something to do with the auto-complete function.
    I gave feedback on these two problems. If they bother you, please leave feedback as well.

  • Itunes music and videos online skip multiple times throughout

    I noticed this problem a couple of weeks ago and it has gotten worse in the last couple of days. Whenever I watch videos online they will freeze up but the sound will keep going. Also, when I listen to music on itunes the song will skip multiple times, about every 20 seconds.
    I have looked at my activity monitor to make sure I don't have any programs that aren't in use and up and running. I have cleared out my cache files. I have plenty of free disk space (this computer is brand new)
    I also have made all of the necessary updates to my computer. Itunes skipping only started happening when I updated to the newest version (10.1.1) last week.
    Could anyone please tell me what I can do so everything stops skipping?!?
    Thank you!

    Whenever I watch videos online they will freeze up but the sound will keep going.
    Make sure you are using the latest versions of Perian, Flip4Mac, VLC, Real Player and Adobe Flash Player.

  • ITunes STILL skipping tracks (V. 11.4)

    Ok, so I've had the problem of itunes skipping tracks in mid song, or just at any point.  For any particular album, the skip is at the exact same time.  This is getting very annoying.  I have tried: disk utility, installing and uninstalling itunes, rebuilding the library, removing extensions, adding and removing tracks, and adding and removing tracks.  It is worth mentioning that this only happens with tracks that I have added recently.  It is also worth mentioning that the tracks play just fine on other playback apps like Quicktime.  I had hoped the 11.4 update would fix this bug, but it has not. 
    I would GREATLY appreciate it if anybody has discovered the solution to this problem.  Otherwise, I will have no choice but to replace iTunes as my music playback application, and that would be a real bummer. 
    Thank you. 

    Still waiting for a solution, I found a kind of workaround (not very useful if you had a lot of new music since you experience the bug).
    I came to think that the problem is due to a bug in the analysis that iTunes performs to album tracks when importing new albums (what was called "gapless playback before iTunes 11). So I tried this and it works for me:
    - ask iTunes to show where the tracks are (in the Finder on Mac, in Explorer on PC)
    - return to iTunes and remove the tracks from the library (tell it to remove the songs but not to put the files in the trash)
    - in the Finder (or Explorer for those on PC), re-import the songs one by one
    Still waiting for a better solution of course. I'll try to rebuild the iTunes library entirely to see if it solves the problem but I don’t expect this to solve the problem so I'm not in a rush to do this annoying task.

  • Bizarre: iTunes skips importing Track 1 on ALL discs!

    I am having the strangest, most frustrating problem: I have been importing my large music CD collection and midway through, I have noticed that the first track of EVERY disc has NOT been copied to my library. The remaining tracks (Track 2 and up) were imported fine. When each CD was importing, everything looked normal and I got a green checkmark next to the first track. What's even more bizarre is that now, I cannot recreate this problem because iTunes imports the first track of every CD as normal. What the heck?! I'm going to have to re-import the first track of every disc now... Did a Google search and got nothing. Anybody have the same issue? I'm running the latest, up-to-date iTunes (v9.2) and Mac OS X (v10.6.4). Please help! Thank you so much in advance.

    May never know the answer I guess.
