ITunes stops playing in between songs in an album or playlist

Since 'upgrading' to iTunes 7, when I'm playing an album or playlist the music will randomly stop completely after a few tracks.
It stops just at the end of a track and the status bar at the top has the diamond on the right hand side of the bar, indicating 0 seconds left to play.
Once this has happened when I double click on another song to play it, the play button will turn to pause, but nothing will happen. The diamond stays on 0 seconds and no music plays. Nor does it work if I drag the diamond to a later spot in the song.
So far I've been resolving this by reopening iTunes, which seems to be a temporary fix. Is there a way to completely remedy this problem?
thanks

i just downloaded and installed iTunes 7.0.1 (maybe another .0 in there?)and it happened again.
it seems that if youi don't touch anything and just tell it to pause then play it will start up again, but this is still really annoying if i'm doing something else. Can anyone help me?

    Same Problem here. Also, when this happens, it loses whatever album art was playing before. I've tried reinstalling and it doesn't help. Any ideas how to fix this? It's really annoying!

  • ITunes stops playing songs/podcasts/etc whenever I move my mouse.

    I have no idea why this happens but its really aggrivating.

    when I move my mouse Itunes stops playing music. Sometimes this happens immediatly and sometime it take 10 to 15 sec.
    At various stages over the years, mouse-related iTunes trouble has been associated with driver conflicts. So it might be worth following up on that possibility.
    Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of PC, and check to make sure you're not behind on any chipset and input-device-related driver updates. (And while there, just in case, also check to make sure your BIOS, sound-card/integrated audio, and video-card/display-adaptors are up to date.)
    If you're behind on anything, and you update, does that help with the mouse-related iTunes issues?

  • Stop play after each song

    Is there a setting that will automatically stop ITunes from playing the next song? I am working with a woman with a disability who wants to be a DJ. She speakes using a communication device and needs time to talk before the song starts. She moves slowly and the next song starts before she can stop it. Thanks.

  • Itunes stops playing on Windows 7

    I have just installed the most recent Itunes 64 bit for Windows 7 (10.6.1.7)
    Itunes stops playing after about 5 songs if there is nothing else running. If there is another program running, it happens after a minute.
    Everything seems to work except music playback. The play/pause command can be clicked but the progress bar won't move and no audio plays.
    The problem also occurs when Itunes is started in Safe Mode and also when a new library is created.
    I must close and restart to hear music another 4-5 songs before the situation repeats.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Music purchased and downloaded from iTunes will not play in the Windows Media Player.
    Try re downloading the album >

  • ITunes stops playing and cannot connect to Remote app whenever the computer display turns off??

    I have a Windows system with iTunes, and an iPhone with the Remote app installed, through which I use to play music on iTunes. Until recently iTunes would play regardless of whether my monitor was on or not, and I could connect to iTunes with the Remote app regardless of the monitor state. Now, however, after updating both iTunes and Remote with the new versions that came out around the time of the iPhone 4S release, whenever my computer turns off my monitor, iTunes stops playing at the end of the current song and the Remote app cannot find iTunes. This is not a system sleep state, I just have the power options set to turn off the monitor after 15 minutes of inactivity. Sleep and hibernate are disabled on the system and always have been, expressly for the purpose of allowing iTunes playback via Remote. If I jiggle the mouse and the system turns the monitor back on then I can manually reenable playback, and Remote can connect to iTunes again. I can't find any setting in Preferences that would control this. How do I fix this? Thanks.

    I'm so glad someone else is having this problem.  I am in exactly the same situation!
    1. Windows Vista
    2. Upgraded iTunes to 10.5 and upgraded remote with iOS 5
    3. My computer has never been set to sleep, but the monitor turns off after 20 mins.
    4. If the monitor goes to sleep, itunes stops streaming music and Remote can't connect to it
    5. If I change my monitor off time to 1 hour, then in 1 hour itunes will stop streaming - it is ABSOLUTELY connected to the monitor sleeping.  Almost like iTunes can't connect to the network the the monitor is off.
    Please help!  I have been using remote for a year and this didn't happen until I upgraded to iTunes 10.5.

    Go to folder "downloads" in iTunes music folder which is the temporary downloads folder for Tunes itself.
    If there is any item within (as a leftover from a former download), delete it.

    Hi there, after upgrading my os to Mac OS 10.5.1 and iTunes 7.6, iTunes stops playing my tunes after about 20 seconds. I have no idea why this is happening???

    Try deleting the cache. Go to User Name>Library>Cache. Locate the iTunes cache file and delete that file.

  • Why does my iTunes stop playing when I close the lid on my laptop?

    I am playing iTunes on my Vista laptop and my setting are 'do nothing' for both powered and battery use, but when I close the lid iTunes stops playing music. Does anyone know why and how I stop it? Please don't say "don't close the lid..." Thanks.

    You have your answer... there is no way to stop iTunes from stopping playing music when the lid is closed.
    You can try adjusting the power settings, but if that's not working...there is no way for iTunes to override it.
