my  i tunes is skipping like a scratched cd….please help it is driving me crazy...

If no change after restoring with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, more than likely your iPhone has a hardware problem. You can make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • My music skips like a scratched cd!

    This is the second time I'm asking. please? anyone? my music on itunes skips like a scratched cd. but i know it's not a problem with the music itself. i think it has something to do with windows media player interfering with itunes?

    I have been fighting this problem for quite a while. Itunes 7.02 skips, but playback on ipod is fine. I already did all the things apple said to do: ie all the things at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610, ie updating itunes, updating audio drivers, no third party plug-ins, enabled Maximum Audio Hardware Acceleration, ensured sound enhancer was deselected, updated directX, and selected “wave out”. I even talked to apple and HP. My songs play on winamp and windows media player, but not on itunes. I re-installed quick-time with itunes many times. Then from searching on the web, someone said that HP dv computers for whatever reason do not work with the copy of quick-time that is downloaded with i-tunes from the apple website. I then deleted the quicktime only with the add/remove programs on the control panel. Then I downloaded the quicktime ONLY, from the apple website. I have now been skip-free for 8 hours. It may not be enough time yet to tell if this is the fix, but before I was skipping every song. Try it and see if it works for you.

  • I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive and then tried to transfer it to my iMac. My music skips like a scratched cd now and I can't add any to my iPhone. Help please!

    I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive right before my old mac laptop died and then tried to transfer it to my new iMac. Now when I try to play my old music it skips like a scratched cd. Also, now I can't add any music to my iPhone unless it was purchased recently through itunes and downloaded through icloud. I tried to "Organize" my library in hopes of correcting the problem but my iMac just ejects my external harddrive part way through. Please help!

    Ejects the harddrive?
    Of what did your old Mac die?
    It sounds to me like you have some file corruption somewhere.  Either in the transfer of your library to the external or the external itself is flaky if it keeps ejecting.

  • Songs skipping like a scratched CD

    A few songs on my iPod nano are skipping like a scratched CD would skip: always in the same place, making that annoying stuttering sound. They work fine in iTunes, so I figured removing that particular playlist from my iPod, syncing, then re-adding the playlist and syncing once again would fix it by making sure I had the file from my computer on my iPod.
    Since that didn't work, I have no idea what to do. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Might want to post this over [here|http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=154] as you clearly stated it plays fine on the computer...

  • Having a problem with the sound for purchased movies is skipping like a scratched CD

    Every time I got to play a movie of Television show the sound keeps skipping like a scratched CD. I've tried redownloading but that doesn't seem to work. I dont know what else to do.

    Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
    Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
    Thanks again!

  • Why when playing downloaded music on apple tv through my distributed audio, it sometimes skips like a scratched record or just stops (in pause mode and won't play again) and yet i have full bars on the wireless in home service from the mac to the appletv?

    Why when playing downloaded music on my mac through my appletv (I have distributed audio so play it through speakers not actually on the television), which is sent wireless from mac to the apple tv, does the music sometimes skip like a scratched record or stop playing (in pause mode) altogether and won't start again when I hit play?  I have full bars on the wireless icon.  Anyone experience this?

    Full bars don't tell the whole story. These issues usually stem from interference, use istumbler to verify

  • All songs skipping like a scratched record in Itunes!  Help!

    I don't know if this problem has anything to do with Itunes 11 or Icloud but around the same time that I downloaded these I began to have all my Itunes songs, the great majority of which have not been bought from the Itunes store, skipping like a scratched record.    I also synched my PC with an ipad around the same time.  Thanks in advance!

  • My iTunes skips like a scratched CD?

    So I didn't have this problem until I upgraded iTunes about a month ago to the current version.  All of my music, which previously played fine, skips like it's playing off a scratched CD whenever I do anything else on my computer.  I'll go to load tumblr and it'll repeat the same clip of like half a second of song for ten seconds.
    I use iTunes when I draw and that's the worst.  I can't put my tablet pen down without my music freaking out.  This is driving me crazy because I love music and it was just fine until I downloaded the new iTunes.  Now my music skips on both my computers and it's getting to the point where I want to scream.  I've done a disk cleanup, defragmented it, everything my friend and I could think and it still skips all the time.  Windows Media Player and all my other players work perfectly, just not iTunes.
    Please tell me someone out there knows what I'm talking about and how to fix it?

    Ejects the harddrive?

  • Purchased songs that skip, like a scratched CD

    I have purchased atleast 2 songs that skip, like a CD that is scratched. Really bad quality. Does iTunes music store credit those songs? If yes, how do I go about it?

    Assuming that it's just specific tracks, not every track you purchase from the iTMS, contact the iTunes Music Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of this web page and explain the problem to them. Most likely they'll credit your account and instruct you to try again in a couple of weeks after they've had a change to try and get new copies of the tracks.

  • Skips like a scratched LP

    Hey Y'all, Looked through the topics here but didn't find any help. My 20Gb click-wheel has started to skip songs about midway through. The song will start playing, and then a little ways in, it'll jump to the next tune. It doesn't do it for all songs, just a few, but it's real annoying. Any thoughts on what I could do to fix this?
    Thanks!

  • I downloaded a tv show that when I try play on Ipad it skips like a scratched DVD and now screen is black, what should I do?

    Ihave downloaded a tv show and when I try to play on my ipad it skipped and then screen has gone black.  What should I do?

    If the Videos app is now 'frozen then try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • ITunes is skipping like a scratched cd

    It was playing fine for several hours today and then all of a sudden it started skipping, and it's been going in and out since.
    It usually happens when I've got an internet browser window (chrome) open and running.
    I updated iTunes to 11.0.1 to see if that would fix the issue but it didn't.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I'm having the same problem.
    All of my songs are skipping - songs stop playing every few seconds for a few seconds and then continue.
    When the songs skip, my entire internet "skips" as well
    When the songs skip, my entire computer "skips" as well including my wireless mouse and even the volume controls.
    Computer: 2011 iMac
    Operating System: Mac OS X v. 10.6.8
    iTunes: v.11.0.1
    Installed the update today
    I only have about 10 songs that I have purchased online. Everything else was uploaded from a CD.
    I have tried the following things and the problem persists
    Uninstalled/Re-installed iTunes
    Disconnected from the internet while using iTunes
    Checked that the library is playing from a folder on the computer (rather than from cloud)
    Searched for settings to fix this

  • Drawing a line causes it to turn straight instead of curving like it should. Help please?

    This is what i get when i try to draw. i've read all the other threads about this. nothing helps. I'm the latest version of flash, everything is updated on both my drivers, tablet and adobe. I'm using a wacom pen and touch tablet, windows 7, 64bit. No fixes have helped so far that i've seen.

    When using a drawing tool there should be sth. available that is called Pencil Mode
    In the screenshot above its the icon on the right that looks like an S. Per default this mode is set to "straighten" which gives that

  • My Powerbook sounds like a clock! Help please.

    A few hours ago my Powerbook started clicking like a clock. About every second it clicks. The sound is coming from the rear of the unit, or the rear left, or the bar that connects the main unit to the display; it's hard to tell. It's pretty loud too.
    What's going on?
    It can't be dying! I have an interview tomorrow and need to finish my presentation.
    Thanks for any help.

    BACK UP YOUR DATA NOW!!!
    Ok, now that your done backing up trying running the hardware diagnositc utility that is found on one of the discs that come with the computer. Also if you can tell us when the clicking started what was happening with the computer or if you can cause the clicking to start or stop (determine causality)
