ITunes skipping during audio while browsing the web - Quicktime issue?

iTunes 11.1.2 for Win 7 is skipping during playback of audio when I am browsing the web. Is this a Quicktime issue? I tried changing the audio output device latency but it didn't do anything different as far as skipping goes. Any suggestions?

Actually, that doesn't work either. Here's the solution that is working consistently:
Go to iTunes, and Preferences > Playback tab > Play Audio Using > Windows Audio Session instead of Direct Sound. There we go, that works!!

Listening to Internet Radio while Browsing the web

Is it possible to listen to Pandora Radio (Internet radio) and browse the web at the same time with my MacBook Pro? I used to be able to do this with my Dell Laptop computer. If so, how do you do this? Thanks.

Open another tab in your browser. Works here using Firefox.
If it doesn't work in Safari, you know what to download.

ITunes skips, stammers when I browse the Internet

This didn't occur before I upgraded to 7.0+.

I don't think I should buy a second computer to listen to iTunes. I have an AMD Athlon 64 processor with 2 GB of RAM. I ought to be able to surf the web and listen to iTunes at the same time...
Does anyone have any ideas? Apple has been unresponsive.

This seems to be a very common problem after upgrading to iTunes 7. Apple offer this help on troubleshooting the problem:

Some people, like me, never completely resolve the problem. I got rid of most of the stuttering except when a large program was loading by following the above advice.
In the end I downgraded back to 6, but this is only possible if you have an iPod that is OK on 6 and you don't want the content offered on V7.

S4 freezes while browsing the web

Several times during the last few days my Galaxy S4 will freeze while I am searching the web. It will not switch to another application or home screen and eventually the screen goes dark. The only way to recover is to remove the battery for a few minutes and start again. Cannot figure out what is happening. Any ideas?

Are you using WiFi or Verizon network? Does this happen at the same location or where ever you go?

Can I turn the screen while browsing the web ?

Can I set the screen to display the web longways as aposed to narrrow ways ?
It would just make some pages look better.

Hi, I have downloaded some avi files and mov files. i am not getting audio while playing the movie. i tried to play with iTunes, QT, DivX player. but I am getting audio in mp4 files. can u help me to fix this

Hi, I have downloaded some avi files and mov files. i am not getting audio while playing the movie. i tried to play with iTunes, QT, DivX player. but I am getting audio in mp4 files. can u help me to fix this

First, back up all data and then uninstall "DivX" according to the developer's instructions.
Then try this:
VideoLAN - Download official VLC media player for Mac OS X

I am trying to watch videos online, but a message saying "You are currently browsing the web with Google Chrome..."

I have a MacBook Pro, which I just bought in August.
When I try to watch videos on my computer, a message pops up saying, "You are currently browsing the web with Google Chrome and your Video Player might be outdated." I know it's a pop up, but I don't know how to get rid of it and watch videos on my computer. I did look it up online and I downloaded the TSM Adware Removal Tool, which removed some adware files. Then I also downloaded Bitdefender Virus Scanner from the app store to scan my entire computer - nothing came up.
Please help me solve this problem. Thanks.

The update alerts are fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they're almost certainly the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked, but you should assume that the router is at fault until proven otherwise.
The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions.

How can I watch a movie while surfing the web?

I've been trying to figure out if there is any way to anchor the iTunes player so I can watch a movie while surfing the web. I've had no luck, Please tell me there is a way! =)

There are two ways I do this.
1. I set the playback in preferences to play the video in a seperate wind. Then I size the browser window so I can see both at the same time.
2. My prefered method is to play the movie on my extra monitor I use. That way I can run it full screen while working with a full screen browser.

How are you trying to play them, in the iTunes store or the Music and Videos apps ? Downloaded and synced music and videos should be in the Music and Videos apps, and you can stop content that is only in the cloud from showing in them via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music and Videos 'off' (under the 'show all' heading).
If you don't have your music and films/TV shows in those two apps then you should be able to download them into those apps via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app.

Music distorting when browsing the web

Hi,
Since installing the latest version of itunes on my windows pc the music distorts whenever i am browsing the web and click on links. Its never done this before. Any ideas please?
I have 8mb broadband and a good spec pc so its none of these causing the problems.
Thanks

i'm not having that problem but it may be somthing that a software restore through iTunes could solve. If not then it may have somthing to do with the websites your browsing. If the sites arent compatable with the touch or have some file formats that are not compatable somewhere on the webpage it could be causing the touch to freeze up for a bit which would stop your music.

I can ping, but I can't browse the web

I decided to try out Arch after having used ubuntu for a while, and things seemed to be going fine until I tried to get an AUR package with wget. I tried pinging aur.archlinux.org and had no problems with that and then I started searching the web. Eventually I found that wget works with the -4 option. I could live with that but when I tried to browse the web I found that I couldn't view any web pages. In fact, it seems like the only internet related tool that I'm not having trouble with is ping, while wget, curl, firefox, and host are all broken unless they have a -4 option I can use.
Here's a sample terminal session where I ping, try wget, then wget -4.

Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.

Windows will randomly close while on the web.

Hi, I have an ASUS x501A-BSPDN22 lap top with windows 8 operating system. While on the web my window will randomly close by itself. At first I thought maybe it was the browser I was using (which was chrome at the time) but I installed firefox and the problem
would still occur. Usually it will close like an hour using it and also the flash plugin will randomly crash as well. Am I worrying for nothing or is there a possible problem?
Also is Avast agood antivirus?

Hi,
Collect the crash dump file:
Then upload it to forum, we can analyze it to see what is the culprit.

I just updated to 4.0.1 on my mac and now it says "Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the web". It is not my internet since I am using Safari just fine. Any suggestions? I sure wish I wouldn't have updated!
