ITunes music will not play

Hello, All!
I have an issue with iTunes right now...
This is what keeps happening to my music- for a couple of weeks now, I have not been able to play the music I select, whether in my Library or in the Store. I can select it, but then it freezes and never plays. I even had an issue or two streaming videos from YouTube, but it is tentatively working now, I am not sure if that is related.
I think I might know what part of the issue might be. On my computer, whenever I turn it on, this pops up:
For those who don't know, Dolby Home Theater is a program that helps control the sound on my PC. Therefore, I can't help but think the iTunes issue is related somehow. So, I tried reinstalling the program:
Unfortunately, the "Dolby Home Theater" image popped up again, and my music still won't play.
What do I do? And thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
ccarriee

OK, managed to figure it out with multiple hours and outside help!!
Go to Device Manager. If you are like me, you can look at the list of devices and see that there is an issue with the HD Audio Driver called Conexant. Click on it, and it will give you options. I had uninstalled it based on someone's advice, so I clicked on the button that says you want to find Conexant online and install it. It worked!! Finally. :-) Best of luck to others with this problem, hopefully this helps.

  • My iTunes music will not play, what is causing it?

    I recently sync my mac to my iPhone. All of a sudden my iTunes will not play music. I can click on everything, but the timeline stays at 0.
    Help what have I clicked or not clicked to cause this?

    I guess I should be a bit more clear. IT is my iPhone that will not play music.

  • HT201269 itune music will not play

    I just recently purchased a iphone 4 and updated and transferred the informtion in the clouds. Now my music on my phone will not play. It keeps shuffling through the songs without playing.

    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/delete 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.

  • My iTunes music will not play in my iMovie.

    I noticed this topic was asked somewhere else, but those were specifically asking about purchased music. NONE of my music in my iTunes library will play. All of the music I've imported from my CDs is doing the same thing as well. It does fine if I import it directly from the CD into the movie.
    I also noticed now that when doing slide shows with other picture applications like Kodak and iphoto....where I used to could play music, now there's nothing.
    Any help?
    Thanks.

    Hi Lisa:
    Go to the itunes folder and find "iTunes Music Library.xml" Drag that to the trash. Open itunes again and wait a few minutes because it will nee to rebuild that file. Then try imovie / iphoto to see if it recognizes your library.
    You may have a permissions problem (kinda doubt it but...)
    Go to your iTunes folder in ~/Users/Your/Username/Music.
    Select the iTunes folder and Get Info (command-I).
    In 'Ownership & Permissions' expand the 'Details:' item.
    Check that 'You can Read & Write'
    Click on 'Apply to enclosed items...'
    All files in your iTunes folder now have the correct permissions.
    Give iPhoto and iMovie a try.

  • Itune music will not play

    I simply transfer all my music over to my new computer. I follow Itune instructions as far as authorizing my new computer to play the listed song (Yvonne Elliman)...but all I am receiving is apple continuous repeating to input my apple ID and password and then apple keep repeating I am authorize to play song. But every time I try to play this song apple repeating the process all over again.
    Yvonne Elliman (Hello Stranger)...please assist me in authorizing my past purchased cd on an old computer, onto my recent new computer. Whenever I tried to authorize via my My Apple ID and password...on my newer computer, I get the same repeated request to re-enter my apple ID and password. Itune keep saying I'm authorize, but when I tried to play this CD...I get the same massages. please help...thank you.

    Hi tzinaki,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I would recommend deleting and redownloading the song that you are having an issue with on your iPhone:
    You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone.
    This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
    manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

  • HT201272 All my previously purchased iTunes Music will not play on my iPhone 5. I am really frustrated! If anyone knows how to help, please do so :)

    I cannot play any of my previously purchased iTunes songs/albums on my iPhone 5. The songs are listed as downloaded, but when I go to play them, the 'play' screen appears for about 2 seconds, and then disappears. I have followed all the steps I can find online. My phone is syncing with iCloud these days. Please help if you can! 

    Welcome to the forums.
    This hasn't yet been reported but the fact that it's only songs you purchased that plays is suspicious. What is the format of the other music? (Go into iTunes and select one and press Ctrl-I and report on what it says there).

  • My music will not play on my iPhone 5. It has the upgrade as well as my iTunes on my macbook. But the music will not sync to my iPhone and all music is in my library. What do I need to do?

    My music will not play on my iPhone 5. It has the upgrade as well as my iTunes on my macbook. But the music will not sync to my iPhone and all music is in my library. What do I need to do?

    An exclamation mark means that it doesn't know where you moved the music to.  To fix this, click on the exclamation point and when it asks you to browse to the location where you moved it to, use the normal commands to go up and down folders in your external drive until you find the song.  Repeat as necessary.

  • I recently purchased a new computer and tried to move my itunes music to the new PC, I am not savay on computers, but music will not play on new PC, error (!) will not play and have to locate.  Why is this please help.

    please help, someone that doesn't have the savay on moving music from an old pc to a new pc.  Music will not play message comes up and have to search. also purchased music from iPhone and does not show on my music library on PC.  This is very frustrating.  Thank you

    It all depends on exactly how you move the library from one machine to the other. The database holding information about your library is normally in a folder called iTunes, with the media in a subfolder called iTunes Media. In this layout you can usually copy the entire iTunes folder from one machine to the other and it will work. If the media folder is split to a new location however then often the links to tracks will fail on a new computer.
    You shoud find that the FindTracks script is able to repair the links in your library.
    I'm not sure I know what is going on with the purchased music, however if you enable Edit > Preferences > Store > Automatic Downloads > Music you should be able to recover your past store purchases.

  • Music will not play from iTunes during a slideshow that is run from flickr. ATV says turn on homesharing...it already is on!  HELP!!!!

    Music will not play during a slideshow launched from Flickr.  After choosing music and starting slideshow, the screen says "loading" and it never stops.  Under the computers section it says, turn on home sharing in iTunes on the computer with the music library.  It is on but apple tv wont recognize it.  I've signed out and signed back in over and over and home sharing is on but music wont play.  Is this a bug with flickr?  Music will play when i launch a slideshow from the iPad but it doesnt have as many cool options for slideshows as flickr does.  I want the flickr slideshow to play with music!!!  Grrrrrrrr!!!!!  Can anyone help???   

    ok, major miracle.  it is now working.  here is how i fixed it, and it was a stroke of luck to even find this.  opened iTunes, went to edit, then to preferences.  box pops up, went to the sharing icon and clicked share my local library on my local network.  then scrolled down and checked all the boxes that were applicable.  for the heck of it i went through all the other headings to see what else might be hiding from me.  i never thought this would do anything but went to ATV, selected flickr, chose some music and wa-la....its playing.  also, under the computers heading, it still does not show my iTunes library but clearly its there someplace.  oh well, it works...i'm happy!  your reply inspired me to keep working so thank you for that!

  • Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..Thank u for your help.

    Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. 64 gig. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..I use windows XP but don't believe this is an issue since i have read posts saying this is not the problem..right now am converting my higher bit rate music to see if that changes anything. I also turned off my unit and the next thing am going to do is a restore if this doesn't work. Anyone find a fix for this yet? I also see that this is not a unique problem to Gen 2 units and is occuring on newer units as well..thank you all for any advise...

    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

  • How come my music will not play without wifi??

    How come my music will not play without wifi??

    It happens when you download from two or more different Apple IDs often. It says you must waut 90 days before you can play it without wifi. So in 90 days, try to download again.
    Good luck!

  • Older itunes purchases will not play on newly authorized computer...

    before i got an apple id i was using my aol account for my itues account id.  eventually got an apple id which i've used to make purchases over the last couple of years.  just got a new computer and the songs i purchased with my old aol itunes id will not play on the new computer.  when i try to authorize the song using my current apple id it says my computer is already authorized to play the song.  any ideas?

    I meant to mention that I bought a new song from iTunes since getting the new iPod hooked up as a 'test' and it will not play either. I thought possibly the older purchases were associated with the other player...
    Thanks

  • IPod Touch: music will not play

    Music will not play, podcasts will. When I press play on a song or playlist it goes straight to pause & will not play. I have reset it but no luck. Any thoughts??

    Many thanks,
