Itunes phone app update now I cannot pause or fastfoward the songs in itunes library

Question

I updated Itunes from my phone on the Appstore recommendation of available updates. All of a sudden I cannot pause, play or fastfoward the podcast or lectures I select to listen to. I can only play from the begining and stop. the format of the screen changed where when i click on it a block toggles around to a play symbol. it use to take me to a blank screen for audio lectures that had a pause, rewind, foward or drag and play bar. Can I uninstall this update or reverse this?

iTunes refuses to play/read file, it cannot recognizes headers, or recognizes those as corrupt, but giving no error messages. The problem is the stored artwork(s) on your music files. To correct this, select the files that are corrupted/cannot be played on iTunes&iPod, click "Convert ID3 Tags...", then select v1.1 from the dropdown box (first, try this on a few to see that my solution is working).
By doing so, iTunes replaces headers, but your ID3 tags will not be changed (I assume you are using ID3 v2.4), nor you'll lose any info or anything else. This works as a hotfix for those files. If you try to replace headers via another program, your information will be truncated, and any artwork stored will be deleted. So I recommend this one.
You'll see that iTunes cannot play most of the files that has artwork(s) stored in them. New version hasn't fixed this problem, and it has risen with iTunes 8.2.x. If it's going to take long, I suggest you should go back to 8.1.x.
