None of my music will play on the ipod or in itunes

none of my music will play on my nano or when connected to itunes

ahh it works thank you so much...i did the same thing...control panel > sound > playback tab > disabled the second device (in my case it was called "SPDIF Interface - Conexant High Defenition Audio") and my music plays again.
and for the record, my network connection still says disconnected too however i figured that problem was related to my living in a dorm and having multiple wireless networks floating around as well as being hardwired to the internet...i disabled the wireless option on my computer so it would focus on the hardwire and i thought it said disconnected because of that. i never figured the sound issue and that were related.

TS1286 MY MUSIC WILL PLAY THROUGH THE IPOD BUT NOT THROUGH ANY DOCKING STATION SPEAKERS. IT USED TO, BUT JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED.

My music will play through my ipod speakers, but it won't work through docking station speakers. It used to but then just suddenly stopped. Can anyone help??

I just had this problem tonight and here is what worked: Go to Settings; General; Software Update; and update to the new iOS: 6.0.1. It worked for me, hope it works for you!

I synced my iPhone to iTunes and NONE of my music will play, just the purchased ones.. Why?

So I synced my phone to my laptop, transfered all 192 songs that used to be on it, went to play them and nothing. There is just this stupid red round circle with a square in the middle of it next to my music. The only ones that work are the ones that I purchased. PLEASE HELP?!?!

About 5 days ago for no apparent reason at all, about
7000 songs which i have collected over a number of
years has just decided that it wont play in ITUNES or
in any other of my media players. When you click on
Play over a song nothing happens. The play icon
doesnt even come up on the screen.
Steps I have taken so far are:
1 - Remove all tracks from ITUNES and then re-add the
folder where all the songs are. This has obviously
removed all songs, but when I have re-added the
folder , it has added about 650 tracks back on to the
playlist. These 650 tracks will play. This leaves
approx 6400 tracks that it wont play.
By the way all the songs on my PC are MP3 type and I
have had no problem playing any of them until last
week.
2 - I have re-installed ITUNES and reinstalled
Quicktime and that has not worked.
3 - All of my songs are backed up on to a External
Hard Drive. I have tried to restore the songs and
also play them directly from the external hard drive.
I get the same problem when I do this.
4 - I have enabled and allowed all permissions for
the account that I am running the PC from.
I am guessing there must be some settnig or Registry
Key that is blocking me playing the tracks from the
PC. I have also tried to launch the songs in Media
Player and Sonic stage but thsi has not played
either.
All the tracks are in the folder structure as they
were before so I know they are there. I just need to
somehow unlock them.......
If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful as
I dont want to lose my entire music collection.
Also I cannot find anyweher on here that is a Support
number or email address for Apple as this is an
ITUNES issue and they should be resolving it for
me!!!!
Thanks

Music not playing in the iPod/Music app

Randomly there are songs that show as playing but the counter never advances past 0:00. Other songs work fine. If I remove the entire library then re-add all the songs, no issues. But that is really annoying. I'm sure it's playing because it even has the play icon in the status bar, yet nothing happens...the song doesn't play, no sound, and the scrub/counter never advances. I saw that this was a problem in iOS5 beta but seriously, they didn't fix this bug? If it matters these are songs purchased from iTunes. iOS 5.01

Hard reset, as in plug in to iTunes, select your device, click restore. You will be able to recover data by syncing first and then select Restore from backup when it's done.

Since upgrading to iTunes 10.4, no music will play on my laptop

Since upgrading to iTines 10.4, none of my music will play on my laptop. I have cahnged all of the iTunes settings back to their defaults and still none of the music plays. iTunes acts like it's playing the song, the controls change from the "play" symbol to the "pause" symbol, my volume is fine, the icon that tracks the progress through the song doesn't move and no music is played.
Any help any of you could provide, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

I'm helping out a neighbor. They just got an ipod touch and when they set up the itunes they were able to transfer some music but when they purchased music from itunes and tried putting it on the ipod it won't go. Now no music will copy to the ipod. Does anyone know that they should do? I'm not much of a PC person but I think if I can get some direction I can help them out.

Why do my songs and audio books keep getting erased when I add a new book? Now some books will not play and the iPod does not keep track of where I was when I pause a book, leave for music and then go back!

About a month ago I added some new audio books to my iPod Classic and then after disconnecting, I discovered EVERYTHING had been erased.
I had to restore through my iTunes but then I could not load my music back on.
I uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes and completely reformated the iPod drive.
I successfully got my music and books back on but then added a new book two days ago only to discover everything got erased AGAIN!!!
Of course, my 1 Year Warranty was up about a week before the first incident.....
I formatted the iPod again, uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes (it was freezing during sync) and downloaded all my music and books again.
Now I have several books that will not play (they play on iTunes and they played on the iPod before all these events) and the iPod does not keep track of where I was in a book when I have to stop and go to something else.
Does anyone know what is going on with this thing??? I have a 5th Gen Video and in all the years I've had it, I've NEVER had problems like this!
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get my iPod Classic up and running properly again?
Thanks.

When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day!

HT4623 I updated to the latest iOS and now YouTube and the Ap store are no longer on my phone. Also, not all my music will play and if I play a song it will actually play a different song while displaying the one I chose. Any ideas how to fix this?
