ITunes Skips, A lot

Everytime a new song starts playing, it starts to skip. THis happens whenever the name at the top changes to the album name or the artist name. What can I do to fix this?
Yes, I did read the FAQ about this and it didn't help.

I have no idea what this last update did, but it helped significantly! It still skips now and then but much much less than usual. However, for some reason itunes is kind of slow at responding now, but hey, northing's perfect.

ITunes skips on my Mac

I have read about this problem on Windows machines, but not on the Mac. I have a new MacBook Pro with enough processing power for anything imaginable, and I am getting a lot of skipping with iTunes 7.3. It doesn't occur with all songs - I can't figure out anything common to the songs it does occur with. It occurs both with iTunes downloads and songs I have ripped from my CDs. I have tried some of the PC suggestions, such as turning off the equalizer and sound enhancer, with no luck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Does iTunes skip when Safari is not running? I have had audio playback problems on every Mac I've used when Safari is open, so I no longer use that browser. The cause of your playback problem may be different, and it's a good start that you've disabled a couple of the extra effects in iTunes already. In addition to what you've disabled already, you might as well turn off Crossfade playback (basically unnecessary now that iTunes has gapless playback) and Sound Check to see if that helps.

Purchased itunes skipping

the itunes that i've purchased are skipping (A LOT) when i play them in itunes on my laptop - it seems they only skip when its minimized because i have no such problem with the screen up. i could understand with cd's i've ripped to itunes, but purchased music? is there some sort of logical explanation or remedy to this - or do i have to stare at my itunes library whenever i want to listen to my music from my computer?

A note was posted about a week ago that the Search function was down. No indication (last I checked) when it's coming back. You can run a Google search with "apple discussions" in front of your query and usually find a host of threads related to your issue.
Try to deauthorize/reauthorize your computer:
Store > Deauthorize Computer
Store > Authorize Computer
If that doesn't help, I'd email iTunes Store customer service and ask to download the album again:

Does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space

does any one know , how to delete the others in itunes. it takes lot of space, i wanna delete that... Actually what it contains

Those are the data of the installed apps. Don't listen if someone says that it's an iOS, because it is not. On your iPhone, go to general > usage. It will show you all the programs installed on your iPhone. If you click any of them you will see how much of "others" it has (documents and data)
There's no way to delete it if you want to still have those apps. You can reinstal those which has the most "others" but after some time of usage, it will raise again.

ITunes Skipping like a CD

I looked around in the community before posting this and no one has seemed to answer this or fix it.
This started happening recently. Songs that never skipped before are acting like a scratched CD. It's not the songs, because they play fine in finder. I don't have anymore programs open then I normally have. I usually keep safari, tweetdeck, x-chat and adium open all the time. When I'm working or cleaning the house I have iTunes open and it has never had an issue playing songs correctly. I don't know if it's a recent update or what, but I'm really getting annoyed with iTunes skipping on all of my music.
I have more then enough memory to run iTunes.

Hello again, Crystal.
Thanks for the update on your issue. Due to the nature of your issue you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action to get a more hands-on response.

ITunes skips a song. It tells me, "This computer is not authorized to play this song. Would you like to authorize it?" So I enter my password. Then it tells me, "This computer is already authorized." But when I try to play it, it's still "not authorized".

I tried that with one song and it charged me for it. I've got hundreds of songs my new iMac won't play! Help!
If you purchased the song from the iTunes Store go to your purchase history and re-download it from there. You will not be charged again.

New songs I add to iTunes skip to the next song half-way through

Whenever I import new music that I have downloaded, iTunes skips to the next track half-way through. I don't have this problem with other songs, or when I transfer the songs to my iPhone or iPad. Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

HT203167 I've downloaded the Now Christmas album, all but 1 song has been downloaded and put in my library. The list says it's there but when I go to play it, iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song. I have downloaded lastest version of iTunes.

I have purchased and downloaded the Now Christmas album to my iTunes libary and all but 1 song have been purchased. The song appears in my library but when I go to play it iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song. It wouldn't normally bother me but its the only song my son wants to hear all the time (hopefully the heart strings will be pulled here and someone will reply before Christmas to help me!) I've loaded the last verison of iTunes.

Will the media file play with Quicktime Player? If it will then it's an iTunes issue. If it won't then you need to delete the file and download it a second time.

Skip Inspection LOT

Dear Gurus,
suppose one material having QM activate,all the processes have been carried out on regularbasis.
now if a vendor supplies material with no rejection last three months,system should skip inspection lot
material should post the stock to unrestricted not in QC. stock
is it possible in SAP
Siva

Keep in mind that dynamic modification is not time driven. It is lot driven. You cannot specify any set times.
The only time you can specidy a number of days is for the reset value. The DMR gets reset if NO lots are created in a given time. Each time you get a new lot, the reset date is recalculated.

TS1424 iTunes skip the first two songs of the album I just purchased from the iTunes Store?

Why does iTunes skip the first two songs of the album I just purchased from the iTunes Store?
I previously checked that the download was complete. (Had plenty of time, but checked nonetheless it was done.) I have closed and reopened iTunes several times. Frustrated.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
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 items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

ITunes skips and stutters

Itunes skips and stutters, and the program locks up and won't close, requiring me to use the task manager to stop the "program that is not responding". I have deleted itunes and then downloaded it again, but I have the same problem. Everthing else works fine and both Norton and Advanced SystemCare6 indicate there are no viruses or anything. Has anyone been able to correct this problem? Thanks! I don't want to go back to Windows Media Player!!! (Note: Version 11.1.0.126)

Yes, it's just untenable. I hate to leave iTunes behind, but I can't deal with this situation. Are you going to scrap iTunes and go back to WMP, or do you have a better program in mind?

ITunes skips when there is mouse activity

A few times this has happened when I am working on the PC iTunes skips. When I stop, it continues fine. Anyone else have this problem and a resolution?
Thanks in advance.

I am afraid this can be an intractable for some people.
If you are not on the latest iTunes, upgrade. I never got 7.0 to run without skipping under pressure, but the latest vesion is fine for me. Also make sure you are upto date with your drivers.
Apple offers this general help on playback issues:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
Some virus checkers seem to cause problems, briefly disabling checking to see if this makes a difference is worthwhile. Exclude iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Muisc Library.xml if disabling virus checking helps. Mostly virus checking causes symptoms around tack change over.
If you have an identical PC at work that is OK, it might be worth looking for differences in set up.
A simple thing to look at which is a real long shot is: right click My Computer:
Properties>Advanced>Performance>Advanced.
Processor scheduling and Memory usage should be set to programs.
I don't want to get into the virtual memory side as it is outside my experience.
Good luck, but I am afiad this can be a difficult one.

ITunes skips after recent format/partitioning

Hi,
I'm having a slight issue with itunes skipping at the moment, I recently formated my 90gb 5400rpm Hard drive (which I think may be the issue) into four partitions:
50gb - Vista (NTFS)
30gb - Shared Files (NTFS)
10gb - Ubuntu (xfs3)
My iTunes libary (8gb) is stored on the 30gb shared partiton, where it was previously stored on the one partition I had before, (No linux).
Does having your music on a seperate partition affect the read speed?
I'm using the latest version of iTunes and MS Vista is fully up-to-date.

Oh well, it was a possibility.
If you want to roll back to 11.4 uninstall all iTunes/Apple components, restore the pre-upgrade version of your library as described inEmpty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then download and install from one of these direct links:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)
If you have trouble uninstalling or reinstalling see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

TS1717 Since the last I-tunes update, my music skips a lot. Is there a cure for this?

Ever since I-tunes updated yesterday, my songs suddenly skip a lot. Is there a solution or fix for this?

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
