Music that plays perfectly fine in my library will skip around within the song on ipod.

Every song begins halfway through, then skips back to the beginning, then skips to the end, and then back to the middle until the song's time runs out. Then it will go onto the next and repeat the same thing. It's getting rather frustrating and I can't seem to find anyone else who is having similar issues. All I can find is people who have problems with the ipod skipping the songs themselves, but not each individual song skipping or stuttering around like this. It is every single song I add. I have the ipod touch 4th gen. I'd just like to know what is going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My itunes library will not transfer all the songs to my iphone.

Library had 643 songs but only 609 on iphone... I have tried syncing etc but nothing works what am I doing wrong?

What's the exact error message you are receiving?
B-rock

How come (when playing music) within my songs, it will skip around and go off beat? PS ive already tried ressetting and defragging!

Alright so its a brand new Ipod 4gen, and when i added songs they didnt get an error message and i didnt get any errors at all throughout the entire process.
But some of my songs can play just fine and then my other songs (mostly the electronica/dubstep ones bt also a few normal) skip around within the song and make a weird sound when it happens. And i can play the music just fine out of Itunes!
Is it a sound card issue?
PS i already have tried defragging/ressetting/using dif USB ports!

Will iTunes 10.7 play my 720p HD movies on my Core Duo Mac mini that are currently on my iTunes movies playlist and playing perfectly fine in iTunes 10.6.3?

Will iTunes 10.7 play my 720p HD movies on my Core Duo Mac mini that are currently on my iTunes movies playlist and playing perfectly fine in the older iTunes 10.6.3?
Please let me know so I do not update to iTunes 10.7 and lose the ability to playback my 720p HD collection from my Core Duo Mac Mini to my Apple TV.
In the requirements it says:
• To play 720p HD video, an iTunes LP, or iTunes Extras, a 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor and 1GB of RAM is required.

Performed the AppleTV update yesterday. Haven't had a problem since...though it's only been one day. Am I just hopelessly optimistic to think that AppleTV just needed to be updated to match iTunes and iOS for home sharing and airplay?
Fingers crossed...

Had to have my hard drive rebuilt in my PC (not a Mac). When I reinstalled my music library from itunes, some of the songs did not properly download. They appear in light colored ink, but will not play and will not synch with my iPod. How can I get all of my songs back?

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.

How can I get rid of the music that plays when people call me?

I get complaints about the music that plays when people call me. They expect a tone that indicates a ringing phone and get frustrated with the music.
How do i change from the automatic music to a ring tone? Thanks-

I read this OP's post better then I did that other one from this morning.
I am not crazy about those that have ringback tones on their phones. It is a good thing that no one I call has one any more.

How can I delete the music that plays while someone is waiting for my to answer my phone?

all I want to do is delete the music that plays while my phone is ringing,until I answer it-I believe it is called a "playback" song?

Playing rentals, Netflix, from local iTunes, other?
Firstly restart router and AppleTv after unpowering to see if that helps - may or may not but quick and easy to try.
Connection via ethernet or wifi? If wifi are there any new devices in the house which may be causing interference or new neighbouring networks? If feasible try to eliminate wifi issues by using an ethernet connection.

Here's the exact scenario with it:
1) Ipod connected successfully to iTunes.
2) Drag song from Library(in AAC format) to My Ipod.
3) Song plays successfully in iTunes.
BTW: This is one of the songs from my cd. Not bought.
4) Eject Ipod.
5) Find song in Ipod and press play.
6) Display for song and time appear.
7) About 1/3 of a second of the song plays, then it cuts out and restarts itself. (boots me back to apple logo)

Nope - and it was set to not look for them.
The final clue came when I tried hooking the drive directly to the computer, instead of to the airdisk. iTunes still hung. Then I disconnected the drive and tried to run it, and iTunes came up right away - but with an ! next to each song. Clearly it was trying to find/touch every file in the library on first startup.
I didn't try plugging in the drive and leaving the hanging iTunes running for more than a few minutes, so it's possible that it would have recovered and launched. But after removing the XML file, restoring the library to my pre-7.7 version, I could hear it accessing the directly attached drive (and see it in disk activity in the monitor) for a few minutes (less than I'd left the hanging one trying), before it came up.
Conclusion:
1) 7.7 is definitely trying to touch/see all the files in the library on first launch (proved by the ! when they are missing).
2) Disconnecting/interrupting the touch/see MAY have corrupted something (can't prove it).
3) Since touching 10,000 files takes a LONG time even at 802.11n speeds (let alone b or g), it's worth the hassle to plug the drive in directly for the first time.
4) Patience is a virtue

Why does my on-phone music library have gray circles by the songs I imported from a cd

Also, the songs I imported onto my PC play on my PC but they won't sync to my IPhone 5. Thanks for your help.

Downloaded an E.P. and all of the songs play fine except one which skips itself. The play count goes up and if I click later in the song it will play, but it doesn't play automatically, how do i fix this?

many thanks.
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 item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

Hello,
Perfectly fine working iPad and I attempted to load the software update provided for settings. Now all I get is an on again off again apple. Attempted hard reset to no avail. iTunes no longer recognizes the device. So......? what? how? where?
Thanks, Richard

And one more point, I am not an Apple user. This is my first experience and have had to learn as I go. So any explanations please break it down for a noob. I am fairly computer geeky but when it comes to Mac or Apple or iAnything... I have zero experience.
