No audio from iTunes, WIN 7 PRO

I'm VERY experienced at audio, recording and sound.  I've used iTunes for years with no problem.  I just installed new iTunes to newly reformatted WIN7PRO and I have no audio.  I do have audio from all other sources.  I have expended all known remedies, including internal and preferences. 

Possible remedies:
Check that you have the most recent version of iTunes (12.1.1.4 - released Feb. 18).  The previous release (12.1.0.71) was widely reported to have significant playback issues, varying from "static" and stuttering to complete lack of output.  The 12.1.1.4 release seems to fix most of these issues, in some cases in conjunction with the points below.
Check the setting of Play Audio Using in Edit > Preferences > Playback (you'll have to restart iTunes for changes to take effect).  iTunes 12.1 sometimes defaults this to "Windows Audio Session" rather than "Direct Sound" where (for most users) the latter works better.  In some cases, the 64-bit version of 12.1.0.71 did not have the Direct Sound option available, though this was more widely reported for Windows 8.
Check that you have the latest version of QuickTime (7.7.6) installed.  Several people have encountered the problem you describe on new or re-built PCs where QuickTime had not been installed.  This issue seems to affect Bluetooth audio devices though may not be exclusive to these.
There's an alternative installer here: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards) - some users have reported that installing this has addressed the problem you've encountered.  The "for older video cards" is a something a misnomer - like most prior "64-bit" releases of iTunes, this is a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer.  The "standard" 64-bit version (12.1 and 12.1.1) is a full 64-bit application, but there appear to be a small number of possible incompatibilities between these and some 64-bit Windows systems.

    Should be able to go into your sound preferences and choose your output device, you can also try downloading Airfoil and try that, it's a pretty cool app.

  • When I upload audio from itunes into my imovie project, it does not show all of the track?

    Hi, I have opened a new project in imovie - I have uploaded 200 photos into the project to make a Comic Book movie!
    this project is 7 mins and 8 seconds long - the exact length of the audio track that I want to play during the movie!
    I have selected the music by clicking the musical note button in imovie, which open up my itunes library and displays the track I want to use that is 7 mins and 8 seconds long.
    When I click and drag my MP3 audio from itunes into my imovie project, i only plays the first 5 mins & 33 seconds; leaving my project in silence for the final 1 min & 3 seconds????
    I have not added markers, there are no fade ins or fade outs - only the first 5 min & 33 seconds or a 7 min & 8 seconds MP3 Audio track???
    I have spent 10 hours trying to rectify this problem.......
    can anyone help me with this problem

  • Audio from itunes doesn't play well in imovie HD 6

    I have quicktime 7.1 and imovie HD 6 and my audio from itunes plays only for a few seconds and goes out and doesn't play anymore throughout the movie. I'm only using photos and no transitions at the moment. It worked completely fine before upgrading to ilife 06. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks

    Hello Tia,
    iMovie has quite an issue with Music Store files. See Karl Petersens post: Stutter in iMovie 5 & 6 — causes and workarounds
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=534252&tstart=0
    What you are looking for is workaround No. 5: Burn iTunes Songs to Audio CD
    Generally it is recommended to work with AIFF files in iMovie/iDVD. To convert your iTunes music go to Preferences > Importing and choose AIFF Encoder from the drop-down menu. Now all music will be imported as AIFF. In addition to that you can ctrl-click existing files and choose "Convert to AIFF" from the pop-up menu.
    Note that this will duplicate the files, so after conversion you'll have for example one m4p and one AIFF with the same name.
    hope this helps

  • What should I do if I am trying to add audio from iTunes onto a Powerpoint presentation, but it keeps saying that I must first open up iTunes before I can access the music?

  • Air play gives audio from itunes (sometimes) but not browser

    Apple TV used to work fine from all devices on all apps/browsers.  Now I get video but not audio from my Firefox browser via Air Play & if the settings are just right then I can get audio from iTunes ONLY.  HELP!

    UPDATE:
    Well, the nice folks at AJA were kind enough to send another card out.
    It just arrived today. I swapped it out with the older card, and then -  - - - - the problems still persist.
    The computer revved up into turbo mode, and there are still a few glitchy things happening with some basic functions in OSX. (I even did a re-install before putting the new card in).
    Checked / updated the firmware / etc.
    Starting to think this is a MAC issue, but dont' know how to proceed.
    Thanks so much for the help already, but I'd sure love to see this problem resolved once and for all somehow...
    Ideas?

  • Error 45048 - itunes - Win XP PRO

    I have a problem with my iTunes. After i updated my iTunes to 11.1.3.8, i can no longer download songs, apps or updates apps with my iTunes PC.

Same problem. i dont know where is the problem. I saw that for Win 7 there is a solution by deleting the SC Info folder... but what is solution for Win XP PRO ?

    I am not re-ripping my CD's to AAC
    Huh?
    Then why did you write, "decided to use iTunes, and set it to Rip my CD's to AAC"?
    If possible (and for best quality) you should RIP for the CD and not convert between lossy formats (AAC/MP3/WMA).
    My question was simply why does iTunes take 3 times as long to RIP a CD at 128kbs AAC then WMP10 does to rip a CD to 192kbs WMA, and what can I do to give iTunes a boost?
    In response to yoru question, Pac wrote;
    "1) UPDATE FIRMWARE for the CD burner drive and get the latest updates for your system,like BIOs hardware ect ect from the PC makers site
    2) Slow the burn speed from "Max" downto 16x 8x or 4x"
    The reason I would prefer to go with AAC is that for the "same" bit rate/quality as MP3 you actually end up saving some space - on my calculation about 25% - so that is preferable.
    You must be calculating something incorrectly.
    Using iTunes to RIP, AAC and MP3 at the same bit rate are almost identical in file size.
    The quality is definitely not the same.
    There are better MP3 codecs available(LAME).
    if there is other software out there that will RIP to AAC - and is faster than iTunes - then let me know.
    Yes, there are different apps that will RIP AAC, but I can't recall offhand.

  • How Do I Transmit Audio from My 2008 MacBook Pro to My 2011 Samsung HDTV?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to transmit audio from my 2008 late model MacBook Pro to my 2011 Samsung HDTV.  My MacBook's Model Identifier is MacBook Pro 4,1 (ancient, I know).  I purchased this DVI to HDMI cable which does a beautiful job of transmitting the video to my HDTV, but no audio (as advertised): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E8SY5Q/ref=oh_o02_s01_i00_details   HELP!!
    Thanks very much.

    I figured it out!  I plugged in my 3.5MM auxillary cable I use to plug my iPhone into car stereo jacks from the headphones port on my MPB to the "PC/DVI Audio In" on the back of my Samsung HDTV and voila! It worked! No additional cables (other than these two). No upgrading OS.  Yay!   
    Here's the auxillary cable:  http://www.amazon.com/AUDIO-3-5MM-JACK-AUXILIARY-CABLE/dp/B002Q3K0QS/ref=sr_1_1? ie=UTF8&qid=1330576344&sr=8-1
    This looks like a great workaround to the MPB to HDTV audio problem!  Hopefully my geek status is still intact.  W00T!
    When in doubt, try all the cables you have in all the different ports.  AV hasn't changed much over the years and you can often rig things to work with what you already have.  Yay for keeping cables out of landfills and repurposing! 

  • Airport Express no longer playing audio from iTunes (airtunes) or Airfoil

    My Airport Extreme recently died so I set up a new wireless network with my 2wire modem from AT&T (Uverse). The new wireless network is fine - laptop connects just fine, Apple TV hasn't had any issues, Netflix through my PS3 hasn't had any problems. However, I'm having problems with the Airport Express in my bedroom. It shows up in airport utility with a green light. It has a green light on the unit itself. It shows up in the multiple speakers pop up in iTunes and shows up in Airfoil's list of available speakers. The problem is whenever I connect to it (from iTunes or Airfoil) it plays audio for one second, then nothing.
    It worked fine with my old network set up. It doesn't seem to be a connectivity issue as I can see it with no problems and things connect to it fine. Is it possible that it just happen to die at the same time that the Airport Extreme died? So when I set up the new wireless network, it was dead? I'm on 10.7.4.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    some times the electricity blinks in the house... have you tried restarting both units... just unplug it for ten seconds then plug back in.

  • No audio from iTunes 11 on windows 7

    I get no audio on playback from newest releases of iTunes 11.1.5.5 on my Windows-7 laptop. This is whether I am trying to listen to groovera.com channels on the internet option, or direct playback of a CD inserted. In all cases iTunes appears to be playing, yet no sound comes out of the speakers or headphones. All other programs (Spotify, Pandora, etc) use the speakers ok. I have uninstalled iTunes and freshly downloaded it several times. This situation has persisted through several releases over the last few months; I do not remember with which release the problem first started. I have no idea why. I have looked at Windows Firewall settings, etc. I have a feeling the answer lies in either iTunes settings or possibly permissions within Windows, but have no clue what to look at. Help?

    Hello Ozboz1,
    It sounds lke you are not hearing audio in iTunes when playing a CD or listening to internet radio. I recommend first checking out this info from the article named:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: If you have trouble playing music or other audio
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12335
    If the progress bar at the top of the iTunes window is moving, but you don’t hear anything
    If you’re using your computer’s built-in speakers: Make sure the volume control at the top of the iTunes window isn’t turned down, and that your computer’s output volume isn’t turned down (in the “Sound and Audio Devices Properties” control panel).
    If you’re using powered speakers connected to your computer: Make sure the powered speakers are properly plugged in to your computer’s audio port, plugged into a power source, and turned on. Also make sure their volume isn’t turned down.
    If you’re using remote speakers and the iTunes volume control is dimmed: Make sure Computer is selected in the AirPlay pop-up menu at the top of the iTunes window. Then choose iTunes > Preferences, click Devices, and make sure “Allow iTunes audio control from remote speakers” is not selected.
    If you’re trying to listen to music through remote speakers using AirPort Express: Make sure the remote speakers are selected in the AirPlay pop-up menu at the top of the iTunes window. If you only want to use the volume control on the speakers, choose iTunes > Preferences, click Devices, and select “Allow iTunes audio control from remote speakers.” Make sure the volume control on the speakers isn’t turned down.
    If the issue persists, try the troubleshooting in the following article to help isolate it further:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3430
    If the issue still is not resolved I would next use the following article to help investigate conflicts with Windows:

  • No audio from Itunes Movies via AppleTV

    I haven't been able to get any audio from any of the movies I stream from Itunes. Funnily enough, AppleTV works with Netflix and Youtube. The audio works here. Can someone help?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Could you please tell is where the movies you are playing from iTunes have come from. (I.e. are they from the iTunes Store or are they your own videos)

  • Can't import audio from clip into Premiere Pro CC.

    I can export a clip, with audio, from Premiere Pro, but when I import it back into PP the audio track is missing.  I noticed that when I delete the .xmp file from the file folder the audio will import with the clip successfully.  Can someone please instruct me as to how I can edit the .xmp file so as to correct this problem?  Thanks.

    I export a clip using the "match sequence settings".
    Mmm, don't ever use that.  It's for people who don't know what they're doing, and often causes more problems that it solves.
    Better to know what you're doing and set up your export manually.  Try that, then report back what happens.

  • Missing Audio from FCP to Soundtrack Pro in Final Cut Studio 2

    I've been trying to edit a sequence from Final Cut Pro 6 in Soundtrack 2 by sending the sequence to soundtrack as a multitrack project. For some reason, when I send it, multiple audio files from the original sequence are completely missing, and I have no clue why. They're .mov files from the original import of footage.
    Anyone know why these don't transfer and how to fix it?

    Hi
    I too have had trouble with Audio from FCP 6 messing up in STP 2. My opinion is that the process works if the audio tracks in FCP are either Mono sourced or stereo sourced and are never relinked, split to mono (in the case of stereo files) in FCP during editing. God forbid you unpair a stereo track and delete one channel!
    Once in STP I have had occasions where non audio appears, the wrong track appears... or sometimes the wrong audio!
    Once in a while double clicking on the offending clip in STP to open it in a Wave window seems to show the right audio. Either saving it of closing the window ( command/w) restores the right material to the clip in STP.
    You could right click on the audio in FCP and "send to STP Audio Project". Hopefully the correct audio is opened in STP. Then save it. Now re-export the Multitrack project and see if the audio makes the trip.
    Or, you could export the Audio directly from FCP, then import it into STP and position it against the video manually.
    One warning : once things start going pear shaped in the FCP-STP workflow, it's my experience that I'm fighting problems all the way. It's why I don't use STP for FCP mixing .... I want to, but its too risky.
    I hope V3 is better.
    Best

  • Burning Audio from iTunes video albums

    can you just burn audio cds from videos purchased from itunes? i recently purchased the U2 and Mary J. Blige version of One and wanted to add the audio to a mix cd.

    You don't need a mic for that or any kind of hardware - But as Mac user I'm only aware of "Audio Hijack" - sorry
