ITunes music has an Echoe or Skipping

I did not have this problem when I first installed ITunes a few months back after purchasing my Ipod. I have allot of music on my laptop but I decided to upgrade to a new version of ITunes and my computer plays the music fine for about 40 seconds and than begins to Skip or Echoe and I'm unable to determine what the issue is has anyone seen this?

hi Vert!
let's start by working through this document. if you've got an itunes version 5.0.x or 6.0.x, you'll need to check the QT 7 settings:
iTunes and QuickTime for Windows: Songs and other audio don't play correctly

    You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone.
    So, yes, you need to get a sim card.

  • I have seen that some of my Itunes music has not gone to the cloud, and I can't seem to refreash this? What should I do?

    I have seen that some of my Itunes music has not gone to the cloud, and I can't seem to refreash this? What should I do?

    First try:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    Next
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    For other music y will have to get them like you did before

  • My itunes music has gone ='(

    my itunes music has gone!
    it is still in my documents and stuff but not on my actual itunes =(...it has also erased all my purchased music aswell does anyone know the resolution to this dilemma somebody help me i will die without my ipod music ='(

    check the itunes folder location. preferences>advanced>general.
    just you know check if it's pointing in the right direction.
    I think your purchased music should still be in your music folder.
    wait do you mean that your music is still all scattered everywhere. awww. check it anyway.

  • ITunes music has just disappeared

    Okay, first off my main problem is that all of my library of iTunes has disappeared (1500+ songs).
    I'm running version 7.6.1.9
    I do believe this could be a user error, as while it was saving my music library I shutdown the computer.
    I have tried to go about restoring the library from a previous date, but when I double click the file, it loads up iTunes, but nothing happens after that.
    So any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    ~Paul

    The same has happened to me. I had opened it and it was empty. I dragged my music folder into the iTunes app, and everything goes in fine. However, under my podcasts, all of the previous files showed up, but when I clicked on 'subscribe', that particular podcast listing disappeared. (edit: this was fixed by importing an older .xml file, keep reading)
    My .xml and .itl files are from October, and would like to include the increase in my library since then.
    My main question now is, is there anyway I can get my playlists back?

  • Itunes Music has a lock on it

    So I bought a new Verizon phone that plays music. My husband was able to download some of his songs from his cell phone to my card reader, but when I tried to put the songs from Itunes on my card reader it has a lock in the upper left corner. I'm on my computer staring at my songs that have downloaded onto my hard drive with a lock on them and I don't understand or know why there's a freaking lock there. How do I get that lock off?

    Welcome to AD!
    You are probably going to need to look at the specs for yoru Verixon phone nad see if it will play AAC files, which is what the iTunes store sells. And it proobably can't play any older files that have DRM, but that's a guess.
    I am not sure where you are seeing this lock, either.

  • Itunes music and movies jumping and skipping

    Movies and music are almost unplayable - jumping and skipping. I have tried rebooting and not sure what else to try.

    Type "move itunes library" into he search bar at the top of this page or into the Google search bar. You will find instructions.

  • Non purchased itunes music has suddenly disappeared

    All of the music in my itunes on my pc has suddenly disappeared, with the exception of the (small) amount of music that I have downloaded from the itunes store. I am assuming that the files are still on my pc hard drive somehwere but that itunes for some reason is no longer locating them. Any suggestions anybody?! Thanks.

    I am having the same problem, upgrade of computer from Dell 754 to Dell 900, XP to 7 so because I do not have an external harddrive, have synced my iPod touch to my new iTunes on new computer. Now my delimma is how do I get the 'purchased' iTunes list to my music library. This is 700+ songs not seen in my music library.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • My itunes music has gone :-( how do i get it back?

    Can I put all of the tracks/videos on with the play count/playlists still there?
    Hi,
    I have just turned on my computer, then itunes.
    What I found was nothing. I store all my files on an external hard drive and wasn't connected when I first loaded it up.
    I have tried loading up itunes with the hard drive and even my playlists and videos have gone.
    How can I reload all the tracks without manually putting all my music, videos, photos and podcasts?
    Thanks

    Visit the store, log in and download again, what you can get. Apps are no problem, even videos.
    Regarding music, this is not since ever that you can download music again. So if there are older purchases, like from 5 years ago, you can't simply download them again from the store.
    In this case, contact iTunes support saying you lost all music purchases from before a certain date and kindly asking if they would make that available for download for you and most probably they will. The store keeps your purchase history, so they can verify.
    After all or at least most of the stuff is ack on HDD again - make a backup! And later, regularly make backups again. Remember it.

  • ITunes Music has no volume

    I recently installed iTunes on my HP Media Center PC and using EZ Vinyl Converter, created a file with album tunes. When playing the tracks in iTunes, I see the progress bar, but there is no volume. None of my volume controls is on mute. Suspect incompatibility with computer speakers and iTunes. How do I troubleshoot?

    I figured it out. was controlling volume from keypad, instead of top bar!
    Thanks

  • The iTune music has become to expensive in Norway.

    Apple´s new price politics is bad for their business. I am now using other vendors with lower prices when ever possible. Happily there are severeal alternatives.

    Correct - and this time Apple is the looser.

  • Music has TINY SKIPS while playing on my mac

    Anyone know why the music has these little "click" skips while playing?  I'm playing on a mac pro with Yosemite and hard wired high speed 150 Mbs connection.  It's like the music has these tiny fast interruptions in it when playing.  It seems to have happened only recently.  Perhaps this is spotify encouraging me to leave for Apple's new service?  

    Is app nap enabled? https://community.spotify.com/t5/Help-Desktop-Linux-Mac-Windows/App-Nap-and-OSX-10-10-3/m-p/1160650

  • Music has suddenly altered pitch

    All my itunes music has suddenly turned high pitch and the sound of the songs has changed so it sounds stupid and i don't know why or how to turn it back to normal?! I scanned my computer and got rid of any threats that it could have been but i don't know what to do to get all my music back to normal. :S

    I had the same issue this morning. Music and podcasts that had been on the iPhone last night are gone after a brief sync this morning. Checking the settings page shows 0 songs and 0 videos but only 1.9 gb of free space. I hope the reset fixes mine as well.
    And Apple, your patch screwed something up here.

  • Purchased music from itunes music store doesn't play on ipod Mini

    Can anyone please help. I have an ipod Mini. Whenever I try and play music purchased from the itunes music store, the song is skipped. I have just purchased a 20 track album and every track skips without playing. It is fine in itunes on my ibook. All music ripped from my CD collection plays fine on the ipod. Thanks for any suggestions.

    If you have made sure that both the iTunes and iPod software are current and have deauthorized and reauthorized your computer, try this test:
    1. Deauthorize the computer.
    2. Create a new user in the system.
    3. Download the free song of the week from the iTMS in the new user account.
    4. Play the song in that user account to authorize again.
    5. Restore the iPod (using the iPod updater) in the new user account.
    6. Sync just the free song of the week and see if it plays on the iPod.
    If it does, you appear to have a corrupted iTunes library file, and you should recreate the iTunes library file in your normal user account, and then sync your music back to the iPod and all should be well.

  • Ripping my hair out...my music has completely disappeared, except for my most recent purchase. Help!

    From about a year ago up until I attempted to access it today, my Itunes music has been stored in the cloud and all of it was accessible in my Itunes on my W7 PC.
    Today, my music has ALL disappeared except for my most recent purchase of about a month ago.
    I've tried everything I can find, and NOTHING will make it reappear.
    Help??

    maybe it does have to do with other apps. i wish i would have paid attention to when this started occuring so i could narrow down which application might be the culprit.
    the only thing that seems to be working right now is if i take my loop folders out of library/audio. i dragged some to my desktop (don't ask me why i did this) and imported them from there. for some reason they are staying in my loop browser. also when asked where i wanted to put the files, i selected them to go where the rest of the loops are at....in the proper directory. i'm thinking of trying this with all the loops and see what happens. something is corrupted and i'd like to know what and why. i admit, which i am embarrassed about, my computer is a mess. i really need to organise it and all that. actually, i am hoping hoping hoping to get a macbook just for my music. it would make life easier for me seeing i am quickly running out of room on all my hard drives.
    the only loops i am having trouble locating are all the ones i made recently. which i am upset about. but i am sure they are here somewhere. i just need ot wade through the mess to find them.
    thank you for your help.
