ITunes skipping/stopping when surfing the 'net

Hi -- apologies if someone has already answered this ... I've gone through other posts about skipping and not found the answer.
My iTunes plays fine if it's the only programme running. However, when I surf the net at the same time as listen to music in my library, the sound skips and often just stops for entire songs, suddenly coming back on several songs later -- the iTunes player looks as though it's playing, but there is no sound. Particularly when I'm downloading a webpage, the longer the page takes to download the images, the more trouble I have with iTunes sound.
I've already set Quicktime for waveout(only) and ensured all my drivers and DirectX are up to date.
I've got sufficient RAM and no other programmes seem to have memory problems. I'm on a good broadband connection as well. There are no drivers that seem out of date and there is no conflict/problem according to the Device Manager. This happens so matter which internet browser I'm using, as well.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Fujitsu Deskpower C600 Windows XP SoundMAX integrated digital audio (Fujitsu sound card)

You can try this out.
Go into the Device Manager.
Open up the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers.
Right click on the Primary IDE Channel.
Selected Properties.
clicked on the Advanced Settings tab.
Any device drive (CD or DVD drive) should be listed here or in the Secondary IDE Channel, and if any of them are showing in the Current Transfer mode as something mentioning PIO then something is wrong.
uninstall the driver for that particular IDE Channel, reboot the system to force it to reinstall the driver. You shouldn't need your windows install cds for this but have them on hand just in case. The drive should be re-recognized as Ultra DMA 5 or some type of DMA drive.
I can't really explain why a Current Transfer Mode of PIO on a CD or DVD drive that I wasn't using would cause such problems but it would appear that my problem had something to do with the sound studdering, slowing, pausing.

Itunes opens automatically when surfing the web

I've noticed that recently itunes will open automatically when I surf the web. Granted that I was surfing the same adult website, but I think there is something going on here like a hijack.
My apple is a late 2009 unibody macbook running snow leopard (I own lion, but it *****....I want the old finder back)
the site is xnxx.com that I have this issue with. remember it's adult so please don't be a puritan if you're going to address this issue.

I'm not sure why that would be. It may be possible to trigger a download from the iTunes Store, which would result in a request from iTunes for your password before proceeding. If that's possible, I would consider that to be a minor security issue, but since everything you could potentially download from there has been screened by Apple, there wouldn't be any malware involved.
Still, if you're concerned about drive-by downloads (and note that this is not behavior that has been seen from any Mac malware to-date), you should make sure to update your system and should make sure Java is disabled in your browser. For more about keeping yourself safe, see my Mac Malware Guide.

Ipad crashes when surfing the net,

When on the internet my Ipad will just suddenly go back to the app pages ( home ) don't know why it's just started doing it. Tried closing safari and thought it worked but it's not still doing it. Please help anyone.

How full is your iPad?
Try Clearing History, Cookies and data. Then do a hard reset. Hold down the home and power buttons. Screen will go blank, Keep holding until apple logo appears. Still no luck then try restore and reinstall a previous back up.
Hope this helps.

How is the Iphone protected from virus, malware, spyware, etc. when surfing the net?

I'm concerned about malicious software and virus attack on my I phone. I surfed the same internet sites as I do on my computer with my iphone; on my desk top I caught a trojan horse type virus. Is my Iphone susceptible to similar attacks?

The browser is sandboxed. It does not support plug-ins and can not download documents or programs containing executable code. As long as you don't jailbreak the phone, you don't have to worrry.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Also when doing All zero to free space the disk utility stop responding t around 75% of the bar completed.
Aha. Sounds like a bad block on the hard disk. Is your data backed up, or can you get to your machine to the point where you can back it up?
Don't use erase free space unless your data is backed up.

IMAC OSX 10.7.4 Safari why does screen suddenly change to large print etc when I cam surfing the net and how do I change it back to normal size

Safari - Since changing from Leopard to OSX when surfing the net, my screen suddenly changes to large print/icons etc. How do I change it back to normal. It is driving me crazy

That's caused by the "Smart zoom" feature of the magic mouse. It's a Double tap with one finger to zoom and repeat to unzoom.
You can turn the feature off if desired in System Preferences > Mouse > Point & Click tab

Keep getting a prompt to install java even when not surfing the net. I have java installed and the control panel says it is right version. Want to know how to stop prompts. This started after I installed Yosemite.

Since installing Yosemite I keep getting a prompt to install Java even when I am not surfing the net. Went system preferences and I have recommended version installed. I want to know how to stop the prompts. I do not have this problem on my iMac.

Most likely, you have either the Facebook video calling plugin or the "NexDef" plugin for watching baseball streams. Both depend on the Java runtime distributed by Apple. If you no longer need the plugin, remove it. Otherwise, install Java.

Cant surf the net when using C4580 wireless

Hi,
I have on C4580 and when I turn the printer wireless on my Internet just kind of freezes
I can print and I can find computers in network but I cant surf the net
I don't know why this is happening.
I already fully "rebooted" router and printer configs and I got nothing...
What can I do?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK, a very simplified version (it may not work since I skipped some steps):
First, print a network configuration page from the printer's front panel (you will need number off of it later). Then:
Unplug he telephone line from the router.
Turn the power off on the router, wait 30 seconds, then turn the power back on.
From your router interface, choose Advanced (along the top) then DHCP Server along the left side.
In the Add Static IP address area type in the printer's MAC address and it IP address (from the printout).
Click Add/Apply and plug in the telephone line into the router.
Now everything should work.....???
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

If you are being re-directed to other sites, particularly when searching, this can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php Malwarebytes]
* [http://www.superantispyware.com/ SUPERAntiSpyware]
* [http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php Ad-Aware]
* [http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx Windows Defender]
* [http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html Spybot S&D]
If the above malware scanners do not find any malware or can not clear it, you should consider posting in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:

When I try to open iTunes,it tries to start but than I get a message stating-iTunes has stopped working , close the program. Does anyone have a problem like this? I'm using windows 7 compatibility turned off.

I'm using a Dell PC with windows 7. Apple Store cannot open completely. An error message states- iTunes has stopped working, close the program.

Nokia 770: Can't Surf The Net In Hotels

When trying to connect my Nokia 770 Internet Tablet while in hotels, I find that my success is hit and miss. But I can use a laptop and connect. The difference is the browser on the laptop defaults to a web page from the ISP where I have to agree to some terms before being allowed to surf the net. How do I get to this default page with the Nokia 770?Message Edited by cxbank on 26-Jan-2007

Well, both really. Sometimes I can open the browser and surf for a while fine, then it hangs. Other times it hangs as soon as I open the browser. I've also noticed that the iTunes visualizer hangs unless it is in full screen mode. It never used to do that. In fact, I used to have trouble getting a full screen visualizer, now it's all I can do. Windows is updated. I suppose I could try sound and video card updates.

Lion upgrade prohibits second i-Mac machine from downloading email and surfing the net???

I upgraded to Lion this evening, trusting that that all the updates would have resolved the wireless connection problem i had when upgrading to Lion 2 months back. No hope, both my I-Macs can see one another and i can share files across the two of them. My main Mac connects to the Internet by Wireless Modem; this modem is attached to my mac by Ethernet cable. My second Mac could connect to my main Mac and use the Internet connection to download email and surf the net.
Now i have upgraded to Lion on my main machine, but the same problem occurs, my second machine can connect with Wi-Fi to my main machine but cannot get access to the net or download, and this was working fine until i upgraded from Leopard to Lion.
I have created a new network, unpluged the modem, switched on again,tried everything i could find in the forums, but i still cannot connect to the net on my second machine.
Please help, unfortunately Apple support in Africa is not very helpfull.

So you're not using a wireless connection for your main Mac? Is that correct?
If I understand correctly, your main Mac is connected to the router via an Ethernet cable, and your 'second' Mac is connected to your 'main' mac wirelessly. is that correct?
If so, why not connect the 2nd Mac wirelessly direct to your router?
