ITunes Radio quickly scrolling songs and not playing any music

On both a iPhone 4 and 4S when a station is played it just scrolls through all of the songs really fast and does not play anything. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
iOS 7 and on work (aka not manged by me) WiFi
Am not experiencing this behavior on WiFi at home.
This leads me to believe work network has TCP ports 8000-8999 and 42000-42999 blocked.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior...or can confirm my suspecion?

I'm having this problem as well. I used to listen to iTunes radio at work frequently. But the past few months or so, it simply fast scrolls through songs (on any station). I'm lucky if I get one song to play and then the scrolling starts. I do not have this problem with my WiFi at home, so I suspect it has something to do with the WiFi at work. Just wondering if anyone found any settings to change or a workaround to the issue?
I agree with sounds_good; I wish Apple would find a solution with a future iOS update as I miss iTunes radio while at work!
And I find it odd that Pandora has never been problematic like iTunes radio is...

ITunes Radio jumping through songs and not playing

What the heck is going on with iTunes raddio!!! It flashes through songs rapidally and then won't play! My regular purchased playlists work fine. It's only iTunes radio.

TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly. How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

I could not find an option to "report a problem".
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

IPod will not play any music. Seems like it is in "Pause" mode. No sound from either the head phones or internal speaker. I have 418 songs stored and none will play.

Try restoring from backup. Next would be a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

My daughters Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today. We have updated, restored etc and will not play any music as in no sound coming from it. It is almost fully charged and played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

So, here is an update to my original question, in case anyone else has this issue. I spoke with a senior adviser at apple, who had me use the "devmgmt.msc" command in the search line of Windows 7; after expanding the USB controllers menu, she had me uninstall/delete the "apple mobile device driver" and then open "control panel" and "uninstall programs." Once the menu of programs was open, she had me highlight the program "apple mobile device controller", then repair it, and restart the computer. This fixed the issue and the iPod synced.
However, just one day ago, when I plugged in both the iPod, then the iPad (not at the same time), I get the message that "this library has already been synced to another iPod/iPad or other IOS device." It then asked if I wanted to set up as a new device or from restore of previous. That is wher I am right now; I am trying to get the same apple adviser again to discuss the case number. More to follow.

OVI music will not play any music on PC any more

Hi there
I have 5800 CWM phone and the CWM licence expired in October 2010. Tthat's fine, as I was able to keep playing the music I had downloaded on both my registered PC and the phone itself.
After a little while I could no longer transfer music from PC to phone. I have about 20GB of music and the phone has about 5GB of space for music so periodically I would transfer different stuff to the phone.
Then I started being unable to play some songs on the PC at all - licence problems for some songs while others would play OK.
Now I can not play any music on the PC at all. I'm getting an error messge saying there is no licence, then an optimistic message saying "Your licence is being delivered" which would not happen. Then I would get a message saying I needed to delete the song/album and redownload it from my download history. I can see my download history but no longer have an option to re-download it - I can only buy it.
Additionally I am now getting a messge saying that "We can't sign you in" and that I need an OVI Music account which I already have. I can login to Ovi.com with it just fine.
This is starting to get really tiresome. From having a handset which i could download any music for a year and keep after the year was up, on both the PC and the phone. I now only have the music that is already on the phone. The remaining music I can't access and indeed can't play any of it at all on the PC.
Does anyone else have this kind of problem that has been fixed? BTW it is now a level 3 support problem with no fix in sight. Sorry for the long post.
Cheers

hi,I have the same problem and this,given the fact that i ave a one year unlimited licence for downloads. I am convinced that Nokia India is fooling people with these type of tactics and therefore I have consulted my lawyers to file a suit or Rs. 1.5 crores against the company for harming my legal interets as a consumer. I am confident that after this NOkia gets to know about my suit, they wil all stop this illegal practices of cheating the consumers.

What do you mean by not playing any music? Are you positive you have music synced to the device from iTunes? What happens when you try to play music on the Shuffle?

Upgraded to iTunes 6.0 now songs will not play

I upgraded to iTunes 6.0, now when I go to play a song the run time shows up as a negative number and the song will not play. I reinstalled the software several times and reauthorized the computer. Does anyone have a solutions to this problem?
Thanks for your help

I should add that every time I remove the iPod from my computer to try and see if any of the songs are back it asks me for a language just like the first time you start it up. Kinda like it forgets everytime I plug it into the computer.

I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk. It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

Windows iTunes not playing any music

I have iTunes and just recently it is not playing music. Other music files will not play as I have set iTunes as my default player. But videos will play. Also, when I play music on another media player like Windows Media Player and RealPlayer music plays. In iTunes the pinhead telling the time of the song does not move. On my keyborad I have always been able to press a button that would raise, lower or mute audio. I cannot change the volume of the computer and whenever i press the mute button it says "Mute Off" no matter how many times I push it. Finally, in the bottom right hand corner of the computer where the small icons are there used to be a volume control button. That is no longer there and I have set Windows to always have it in the toolbar. If anyone could help me it would be great! Thanks.

okay, that rules out a creepy possibility.
let's try for some more standard problems.
if you're running itunes 5.0.0.35, 5.0.1.3, 6.0.0.18 or 6.0.1.3
try:
iTunes for Windows: Audio files do not play in iTunes 5 or 6
if you're running a higher version of itunes, or the compatibility settings thing doesn't seem to be a factor
try a careful standalone QT 7.0.4 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.0.4 installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.0.4 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes play back properly again?

My iPhone will not play any music not download from iTunes

Not even music ripped from CD's I own. Deleting, re-installing or re-syncing does not help.
When I try to play any song from my library, iTunes fast-forwards at breakneck speed through the songs until it finds one it approves of. (Including the F****** U2 album I neither wanted or downloaded.) I've tried deleting and re-synching, deleting and restoring from back ups in iCloud and from my laptop bot nothing helps.
When I choose 'Get Info' on the tracks that won't play they are described as 'AAC Audio Files', hose that will play are described as 'Purchased AAC Audio Files'.
My wife purchased an iPhone 6 on the same day, she has no such problems with her purchased and ripped tracks.

Well that was a complete waste of time. Thanks for nothing guys.

HELP - No sound and will not play any music or videos

Hi All,
I'm really hoping someone can help me. I have an Apple iPod 2g 16gb.
I am having real problems with the sound not working when I upgrade the firmware. If I update to the new 4.1, the internal speaker stops working completely and that's not all...
If I try to play a song, it basically loads the PLAYING screen (with the two arrows and PLAY button in the middle at the bottom) then appears to immediately stop the song and go back to the track list screen.
Also... whenever I try playing any videos on the youtube app, it keeps saying video cannot be played...
Now, if I downgrade to Firmware version 2.1.1 sounds works, videos work and music plays!
I have tried all the Restore option and Reset all settings solution and nothing seems to work. I have been researching like mad on the Internet and have found a couple of posts with similar problesm so I know it isn't just me but does anyone have any ideas at all because, had I any, I'd have ripped all my hair out by now!!!
iPod Touch 2G 16GB 4.1 Windows XP Pro

If it works fine with the older FW, I would leave it alone. iOS 4.1 has its share of problems. Battery life is one big issue.

Itunes is not playing any music on windows 8.1

I have updates my windows to 8.1 and now itunes does not play anything.
Itunes opens fine, but when i click a song to play nothing happens. The time does not elapse and no music is played.
PLease help, i have tried updating itunes, but iit says i am up to date

I am having the same issues; the playback is spotty in that sometimes it goes, but the majority of the time (as in 95 percent of the time) it is having problems. However, it is playing movies without any difficulty--only the music is giving me trouble.

TS1967 Can not play any music in iTunes

I am running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and the latest version of iTunes 11.0.2 I cannot run any of my music. If I click on a song to play it nothing happens. This happens whether I'm in the iTunes store or off my own music library. Is it a compatability issue? It worked fine before I upgraded iTunes.

I think this may be a clue to the problem. When you purchased the MBA did you restore any of your personal data from a prior backup? In particular, did you restore any prior data in the Music folder?
Or, did you simply launch iTunes and enable iTunes Match?
