ITunes no longer plays my music

Tried playing music via iTunes, songs are selected, but playhead never advances.
checked speakers - connected
checked volume controls - correctly configured
updated to iTunes 8.02 - no change.
checked authorization - only 2 computers authorized...
Cannot play from either library or ipod...
Anyone have any suggestions???
Thanks,
Scott

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

  • HT4528 After my last sync my iTunes no longer plays any music not purchased in iTunes. Any suggestions?

    I did the latest update and synched my iPhone 5C, after the sync all music that was not purchased through iTunes will not play on my phone. I figured out how to "homeshare" those songs but they aren't really on my phone so once wifi is off I no longer have them. Any suggestions? Most of these song were off of cds. I don't want to purchase them all again through iTunes what a waste of money. I'm feeling super annoyed.
    Thanks for any help!

    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:

    If the issue is happening in all areas of your computer, not just iTunes, then you will want to reference this article:

  • 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.

  • ITunes will no longer play my music, all the albumss are there but it if I click on a song to play it I get a message saying " The song (name of song) could not be played because the original file coul not be found. Would you like to locate it."

    You get this message because  iTunes can’t find the file. This can happen for a number of reasons:
    The song file or a folder in its path was renamed
    The song file or the folder it is in has been moved
    The song file has been deleted
    The device containing the song files e.g. external drive is not accessible or the drive letter has changed.
    Do any of these aply to you?

  • ITunes will not play songs, music anything

    I've got Mountain Lion and iTunes 10.7 and it will (no longer) play any music. The diamond does not may/progress and nothing happens.
    I already re-installed iTunes, rebooted several times. Also no previews from the iTunes store play.
    No error messages are shown.
    Can anyone help?

    I had the same issue. If it is due to some other application locking the audio driver, you could change that in
    control panel > sound > playback > speakers and headphones > properties > Advanced > Exclusive mode >

    Can't. This is done for the individual movie, not by iTunes.
    Some have it, most don't.

  • ITunes won't play my music unless it's on shuffle

    My ITunes will only play my music (from one song to the next without stopping) if it's on shuffle. This is even if the songs are checked. Otherwise, I have to go back each song and click the next song. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.8.5 (desktop) and MAC OSX 10.9.5 (laptop). Is there an answer to this?

    Try to go through this check list http://www.copytrans.net/helpcopytrans.php#22 it's pretty complete.

  • Itunes will not play my music nor videos

    I recently updated to itunes about a week ago..and for some odd reason my itunes will not play any music that is located in the itunes music library.. I un-installed it, then re-installed it..and it still did not play the music.. I believe it has affected my windows media player on my computer as well. I was wondering if anyone had any information or a solution to my problem??
    thanks

    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

    I have a nearly identical problem. I can import part of the first track, and for some reason, part of the 6th track and then skips over the rest. It shows the play times as a huge number (somewhere around 667 hours) but imports nothing. I cannot play the CD with iTunes either.
    I bought vista home premium and was disappointed to discover it does not come with a x64 bit disk. I used vista 32 bit software and had absolutely no problems with iTunes. After a fresh install of vista for 64 bit iTunes no longer works properly. I can still play anything I transferred from my backup HD but no importing is possible.
    I have tried the error correction with no success. I tried installing and running 32 bit iTunes and it gives me an error saying something to the effect of "iTunes is improperly installed. You may need to reinstall iTunes to fix this problem."
    I have a hard time believing that this is due to a x64 bit problem as Apple has used this technology longer than most. Is this an issue with the latest iTunes? I am going to fuss with it some more but I'm very frustrated that I can bearly use the new iPod I bought. Any suggestions from Apple users as well as Dark Side (*vista or windows in general :)*) users would be awesome.
