ITunes No Longer Plays Music after upgrade to 10.7.3

Since upgrading to Lion 10.7.3, music has stopped playing in iTunes.  I double click on a tune, and it looks like it is playing but there is no sound and the little progress bar doesn't advance across the screen.  I can play the tunes in the latest version of QT Player.  Any idea what might be going on?  I am running M-Audio studio monitors through a FocusRite Scarlett DA/AD USB converter box.

Well, after a complete re-start, the problem has gone away.  Now I just need to sort out audio and video problems with Skype and FaceTime.  But that's for another section of this board.  Sorry for the false alarm.

  • My itunes no longer plays music.

    My itunes no longer plays music. This is both songs from my library and any songs I select from the itunes store to sample.  I can still buy songs and they sync to my ipod but again they will not play on iTunes.  I have the latest iMac

    Hi there dryval76!
    There are a couple of reasons for seeing an issue such as that. I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot and find out the source of the issue. The first is an article about troubleshooting issues with playing songs in iTunes, and it can be found here:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: If you have trouble playing music or other audio
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12135
    If the issue is happening in all areas of your computer, not just iTunes, then you will want to reference this article:

    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • ITunes doesn't play music after sleeping mode.

    iTunes doesn't play music. I try to start any song by remote app in iPhone from sleeping mode of mac mini.
    I can see all my music library, choose any artist and any albom.
    But when I try to start the music nothing is happen.
    The button Play/pause doesn't work and the play-bar is not moving.
    This issue have appeared after upgrade to iTunes 11 and new remote app.
    After reboot iTunes everything is ok, but in a sleep mode I have the same problem.
    Please help!

    okay. i solved the problem. After reading a few other posts on related topics, it appears that using either the Setup Assistant(instead of the Airport Admin program) or if you are using the new version called 'Airport Utility' to use the option to 'Assist Me'. After going through the setup in this way it worked!

  • Itunes no longer plays music videos on iMac 27inch

    When I click on a music video to play the music plays but the video does not.  This never used to be the case.  Has anybody seen this happen.  TV programmes and normal movies play fine.. 
    I found the answer minutes after posting the question !  Seems you cannot have a remote set of speakers selected when playing music videos.  Somebody had already answered previously

  • ITunes no longer plays music

    All of the sudden my itunes stopped playing music. When I try to play a song, the song info appears in the menu area but the diamond does not move along the song bar and the little speaker icon by the song title in the playlist does not have lines coming out of it. I downloaded a video from the itunes store and it worked fine, but music files still do not play.
    I have tried the solution listed by Apple and it does not help. I have also uninstalled quicktime and installed quicktime standalone and it didn't help either. I've updated windows, itunes, and quicktime. The files work if I use windows media player but some of the purchased songs won't open and have a lock in the corner of the icon.
    I've tried the solutions listed in previous posts and nothing seems to work!!! HELP!!!!

    No, the song doesn't play if I click on it in itunes and it doesn't work if I go into the music folder and launch it from there. itunes lauches if I try to open the file from the music folder but then it doesn't play. I've tried double clicking, right clicking play, hitting the play button in the menu...nothing works.

  • Unable to send text and play music after upgrading to IOS 6.1

    After upgrading to IOS 6.1, I am having problems sending text messages (sms) to several of the contacts to whom I was able to send text earlier. Also all the songs I have downloaded previously from iStore have all stopped playing. Being a new IPhone convert I am seriously regretting why I got rid of my Blackberry

        I can understand how you are upset, MJ406. I want to make sure that we do everything we can to get the text messages up and running with out any kind of problems.
    When you are trying to send these text messages out are you connected to Wi-Fi or the cell network? If you are connected to wi-fi please do me a favor and turn of the wi-fi, try to send a text to see if it goes out without any kind of issues. Then go into Settings, Application Manager, Slide the screen to the ALL section, Scroll to Messaging and perform a force stop, clear cache, and clear data. Once that is done, power the device off and then turn back on. Once it is back up and running you can turn the wi-fi back on (if you had to turn it off) and retry sending a text message again.
    Please keep us posted.

  • External Hard Drive won't play music after upgrade

    I have all my music and iTunes on an external hard drive and it worked great unitl I upgraded to iTunes 10. Now it says it can't play the music because it is from an earlier version of iTunes. PLEASE HELP!!

    Same here, but I can play everything that I own, but can't play rentals. I think that is the reason because it is on an external hard drive. iTunes is to big for my MBP hard drive. Not sure what the problem is.

  • My 3gs headphones only play music after  upgrade

    the clicker on the headphone cable now does nothing since upgrading iphone 3gs to ios5 - any ideas why and how to fix this, they still alow music through.its definatley the upgrade.
    thanks
    Steve

    You can try cleaning it with the shaft part of Q-tip.. Just make sure that you do not leave parts of the q-tip in the jack.  However, the headphone jack does "break" sometimes and replacement is required.  A third-party place like this one is less expensive than Apple since Apple will only exchange your iPOf for a fixed price depending upon the capacity.

  • ITunes No Longer Plays Music & Videos

    I accidentally moved my library files from the C drive - noticed my error and moved them back. Now - iTunes won't recognize them. I am getting the following error message "The song [video] " " cannot be used because the original file could not be found." Have I lost everything???

  • ITunes no longer plays 3rd-party site music samples (eMusic, etc)

    After downloading the latest iTunes upgrade, it no longer plays music samples from sites like eMusic or any independent vendors. Never had a problem before. I would click on a sample icon and the clip would play automatically in iTunes. It's still set as my default internet player, but sound clips are saved to my desktop instead of opening in iTunes now. Any ideas?

    There has to be a solution. Isn't anyone else having this problem? I would think it's a big one, because there has to be others like me who only download music from eMusic or third-party sites, never iTunes which is way over-priced. If this problem isn't fixed, adios iTunes.

  • Updated to iTunes 7 and can no longer play music off my iPod through iTunes

    The title says it all. I can no longer play music from my iPod through iTunes now that I have upgraded. When I click on my iPod there is a little black lock beside where it shows the disk usage.
    anyone have any ideas. I like some of the new features of this version of iTunes but it really seems to be a few steps backwards.

    That little lock usually indicates that the iPod is set to autosync. In order to play iPod content through iTunes, you have to be on manual sync.

  • HT1222 my iphone 4S no longer plays music output to speaker after updating to version 6.1.3.  I am unable to reset the phone to an earlier version!  How do I get my audio output to speaker back? (music, audible, youtube, netflix))

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • AirTunes -  Unable to Play Music After Installing iTunes 7.1

    I upgraded to iTunes 7.1 and all of a sudden I can no longer play music through my stereo speakers. iTunes gives an error "The Remote Speaker <speaker name> is not compatible with this version of iTunes". Airport Express is v6.2.
    Has anyone encountered this error, and is there a fix?

    Ditto here.
    Mac OS 10.4.9. iTunes 7.1.1 (5)
    Airport Extreme Base Station "chained" to 2 Aiport Express Remotes. All connections are fine. Have internet on remote Macs. Airport Admin utility displays all three airport units, but I'm now unable to broadcast to the remote Express hooked up to my stereo in adjacent room. Have done this many times in the past without problem, but not in past couple months, so can't say if it broke with 7.1 or 7.1.1, but I get this message from iTunes:
    The remote speaker "Living Room Speakers" is not compatible with this version of iTunes.
    Prior to restarting iTunes (and being sure all Aiport station firmware was up-to-date, I was getting the message that no speakers were connected (double-checked all speaker and stereo connections), but now just the "not compatible" message.

  • ITunes no longer plays any music.

    my iTunes that I use at work on Windows no longer plays music. I double click a song and nothing happens. I hit play and nothing happens. Even when I go into the music through iTunes, I double click a demo song and nothing happens.
    So I reinstalled iTunes and have the same problem still. So unless anybody has a troubleshoot for this. I'll be looking for another music application to set up my music in.

    I'm having a similar problem.
    When I click to play some of my purchased songs, it just skips right over it. But, it increases the "Play Count" column value by 1 each time, even though it doesn't play anything.
    Of the $50 worth of music that I just bought today, only 2 songs seem to be working. The "Play Count" column is blank for these songs. And I think these are songs that I bought without previewing them first.
    Maybe if you buy a song WHILE previewing it, it will cause this bug? /shrug

  • After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

    After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

    Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
    Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
    This listed below will fix it...
    Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
    Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
    You're very welcome! Have a great day!
    Sincerely,
