Itunes version 11.1.5.5 randomly glitching out during playback

I have itunes version 11.1.5.5 and now randomly when I am playing music the songs will start getting distorted. Somtimes it works but usually after a few minutes it starts to sound like I'm playing it underwater with this weird echo skipping effect; as if the timing is messed up. Oh, and the music plays fine through a different media player like realplayer.  How do I fix this problem?

  • Canon printer randomly erroring out during printing.

    A few weeks ago I bought a new AEBS and hooked up my Canon MP530 printer to it. I printed out a few things from my Mac. My wife printed out a few things from her PC. Everything seemed fine.
    Today I go to print out a simple two page pdf and about 75% of the way through page 1, the printer stops. I look in the print queue and it is just sitting there saying it is printing, but nothing is happening. I click the pause button in the print queue, and the printer spits out the paper and essentially cancels the job.
    I try reprinting several times, but every time it does the exact same thing at a random point. Sometimes it almost completes, sometimes it errors after 1/4 of a page.
    I clicked the "reset all printer functions" or whatever it is called in the print queue and that didn't help.
    I was using the default Leopard Canon printers, which are the exact same version number as what Canon has on their site. I have never had a problem in the past 6 months using a direct USB connection, but I figure I would try reinstalling the drivers. I follow the instructions given by Canon to remove the old drivers and install the new ones. Of course, there is no change.
    I connect the printer via USB and print the document no problem without changing a single setting.
    I look in the error log and this is what I see (I set a marker before I tried printing, so this is the exact point that I clicked print):

    The first line that starts with "E" is after 3 minutes of the printer sitting there doing nothing. I clicked the pause button. This caused the printer to eject the paper. A couple seconds later I clicked resume and nothing happened. About 10 seconds later I click the delete job button (the second "E" line mentioning signal 14).
    This "crash on signal 14" is the error message every single time. I did a google search and only came up with one other mention of this and it was another user asking *** was going on.
    Since it works via USB, I can only assume that it is a problem with the base station or the printer drivers. Has anyone had this error before and what did you do to fix it?

    You can check the cartridge warranty as shown here.  The warranty for cartridges is separate from the printer warranty and is generally two years from the date of manufacture.

  • I tried downloading a CD (lots of my itunes music is from CDs) and it went as normal but when i downloaded it to my ipod it doesnt say the name of the artist. I've tried everything. It only did this after i downloaded the most recent itunes version

    So a lot of my music in iTunes is CDs and recently I was trying to download another CD to it and everything went as normal until I downloaded it to my iPod. So I know that to get everything to match you have to change the names and stuff to get the album to match the iTunes version exactly so that everything will go smoothly and I did that but when I downloaded it to my iPod I saw that it didn't name the artist. Where it should say the artist it says "Unknown Artist". I thought that it was just that particular album but than I tried downloading another album and the same thing happened. I've tried everything. I've double checked to make sure the album matches the iTunes version and it still does it. Everything is fine on the iTunes on the computer. It says the artist and stuff but than on my iPod it doesn't. The album artwork, name of the album, and name of the songs are all there but the name of the artist isn't. It never did this before and it started right after I downloaded the latest version of iTunes so since it happened twice I think it may be a glitch with either my iPod or with iTunes but I thought maybe somebody could help me? I guess it's not important but it really bothers me. Especially since it could be avoided.

    Yes i've tried all of that. I've turned it all the way on and off and erased all of my music and put it back on and nothing works. And with the breaking up CDs and putting into compilation categories i have already fixed all of that stuff. It's fine it just doesn't show up in the list of artists. I can find the album in the songs category and the albums category it's just it doesn't show tha name of the artist. All of the other albums that i downloaded before i updated my itunes to th most recent update are fine. It's just the two that i downloaded afterwards. Thanks for trying though.

  • ITunes 11.0.2 (64-bit) installing glitch for Windows 7

    I've tried several times to download and install iTunes version 11.0.2 (64-bit) onto my Dell computer which uses Windows 7. I've never had iTunes on this computer before, and last night was the first time I've tried to install the program. The file downloads completely, but the installation process stops and glitches at the "Publishing product information" step every single time.
    Here is the error message: "An error occured during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32",version="8.0.50727.4053",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="amd64". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736FD."
    Steps already taken:
    - Deleting the downloaded file
    - Re-downlaoding the file from iTunes website
    - Restarting the computer
    - Downloading the file from Apple Updater
    Big thanks to anyone that can help!

    Were you able to resolve this?  You didn't by chance upgrade to Internet Explorer 10?  If yes, read on ...
    I have a similar post that had some of your symptoms.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5006678
    Turns out that in order to get the installer to work, I had to lower security settings in IE 10.  Not because it's the browser I use (it's not) but because the security settngs in IE 10 affect the overall system.  If you reduce the security settings to something ridiculously low and try it, let us know what happens.
    I wish I could offer the exact steps I took, but I don't recall which security settings it was.  Start with ActiveX controls and "allowing unsigned content to run on my PC."  Of course once iTunes installs, set it back to defaults.

  • ITunes app keeps opening by itself randomly...

    The iTunes app on my MacBook Pro randomly opens and starts playing from my music library no matter what I'm doing on my laptop.  I keep quitting iTunes but it reopens on its own. I've restarted my laptop several times but that hasn't solved the issue. what can I do? (I have the latest iTunes version installed)

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • HT2729 i downloaded 3 songs to my pc and sync'd my ipod and the songs do not tranfer.  is this related to not having the proper itunes version vs ios?  I cannot get the songs to sync, but I can move other songs to different playlists and they sync fine...

    i downloaded 3 songs to my pc and sync'd my ipod and the songs do not tranfer.  is this related to not having the proper itunes version vs ios?  I cannot get the songs to sync, but I can move other songs to different playlists and they sync fine...any ideas what's wrong?

    Hi Dennis!
    I have a couple of steps for you to try in order to get those songs transferred to your iPod touch. First, make sure all of your software is updated with the latest versions. If the songs were downloaded from iTunes, you will also want to delete the songs from your library and then download them again from the list of past purchases on your iTunes account. An article about doing that can be found here:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    If you try a sync after those two steps and are still seeing the issue, then I would like you to try syncing the iPod by setting it to manually manage. An article outlining more information on manually managing your iPod sync can be found here:
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
    If you are still having issues after that, I have another article that can outline some other reasons why your songs may not transfer to your iPod, and it can be found here:

    You need iTunes 10.0 or greater to update your phone...iTunes isn't confused at all. If you're on a Mac, you'll need OS X 10.5.8 or greater to update iTunes to 10.0 or greater.

  • Something in iTunes version 7.6.9.2 is not working on my laptop (Toshiba)

    Just this week I began having problems with my iPod nano (3rd generation) and my computer. Here's the deal: A couple of weeks ago I went through some of the files on my computer and removed them because I thought I didn't need them. One of those files that I deleted was Quick Time. I never knew that I needed Quick Time in order to use iTunes. Anyhow, I immediately uninstalled my version of iTunes and reinstalled iTunes (version 7.6.9.2)+ Quick Time. At that point in time, I was having an issue with my iPod displaying that it indeed was connected, but it wasn't showing up in iTunes for me. So I called the oh-so-helpful folks at Apple Support. That first call sent me on a wild goose chase and has cost me at least $100 so far. So when I first spoke with the Apple Support person, he went through all the steps that he knew could be done (ex. uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes once again). No advice that he was giving me was working, and he basically ended our conversation (because it was later than 6 pm Pacific time and they close at 6). He told me that once my Toshiba laptop (with Windows XP Service Pack 2) rebooted, everything would be in order. It sure wasn't! When I rebooted my system, my iPod no longer even said that it was connected! It simply lit up and then faded to black when plugged in to any of my 4 USB ports. Fortunately, I live near an Apple retail store, so I took my iPod there the next morning. The guy at the store tried my iPod on the store's computer that had Windows, and it (my iPod) showed up immediately. He then asked me to bring in my laptop so that they could check and see if there was just something wrong with my computer. I returned 3 hours later at my scheduled appointment time, and all the kid who looked at my computer could say was that there was a problem with my USB ports and that I should get a new laptop! I was extremely frustrated at this point, but instead of falling for the "buy a new computer" trap, I immediately took my laptop to Geek Squad within a nearby Best Buy. The Geek Squad representative actually took about 1/2 an hour to go through everything on my computer and (once he was done running diagnostics) let me behind the counter to see for myself that there was absolutely nothing wrong with a single one of my USB ports! He even went and got a brand new iPod of the same make and model as mine and plugged it in to my computer, and it popped up instantly! So after all this messing around, I decided to call Apple again to tell them that in fact, there was nothing wrong with my iPod, and also nothing wrong with my computer. The Geek Squad rep. said to me that there is something going on in my registration of iTunes 7.6.9.2 that is not closing out that is not allowing ONLY my computer to recognize ONLY my iPod. At the end of that phone call, I agreed to pay $40 to send my iPod off to get repaired/replaced, but immediately after our conversation, I thought to myself...Hang on a minute...My iPod is obviously not the problem here, so I just paid $40 for nothing! Next morning I called Apple again to explain what had happened in my previous phone conversation with them, and the kid on the other line spent all of 2 minutes claiming that there was nothing that could be done since my iPod didn't (and still doesn't) show up under the Device Manager. As a matter of fact -- nothing shows up in my device manager, even though I have both a mouse and a printer hooked up to my computer in 2 of the USB ports (one in back and one on the side) and both of these work (and always have worked) just fine! Any advice as to what I should do with the exception of banging my head against a wall and call Apple Support and pay for more cell phone minutes that are outside of my plan's coverage??!!

    I think there's on higher version than 7.6.2.9

  • I currently have iTunes version 7 and I need to upgrade to version 10.  I am afraid of losing all my music if I just download 10 and when I use the "Check for updates" in the version 7 help menu, it tells me the server cannot be contacted.

    I currently have iTunes version 7 on my computer and need to upgrade to version 10 to sync my new nano iPod.  When I tried the "check for updates" under the version 7 "help" menu, it said it could not contact the update server.  I am afraid if I just download version 10 from the website, it will wipe out my music library.  What should I do to upgrade?

    Back up your music and install from the website. You probably won't need to do this, but if your library is erased, restore it from the backup.

  • Itunes version 7.6 and later will not open (no error message recieved)

    All Itunes versions before 7.6 work fine on my computer, i am currently using 7.4 because i can not use 7.6. However, with 7.4 i can't update my ipod because it is a newer ipod. I have installed, reinstalled and tried many other things to get 7.6 to work but it will not open when i double click on it. The process runs as evidenced by the task manager but the hourglass disappears and it never opens. It is very frustrating any help please?

    Often if I update iTunes, i need to reaccept the terms etc when i reopen it.
    If you have other programs open, you often cant get this "terms acceptance" screen to come up.
    I suggest closing all open open programs and then trying.
