OK I tried you fix distorted music with QuickTime it fixed most of the songs but some still start kinda ruff...my iTunes version is 11.3

Hey seems like my music is distorted when I play it...I tried the Quicktime fix it and it worked on some songs but some songs still start out a little distorted and maybe half way into the song...so what to do now ?

No, you shouldn't have to continually restore the iPod.
You could try a format of the iPod in Windows. A full format does a check and remap of bad sectors on the iPod hard drive, and you would need to restore the iPod as normal (using the iPod updater) afterward. This can also work when the iPod is recognized by the computer, but not by the updater.
First, put the iPod into forced disk mode.
See: How to put the iPod into disk mode.
On your PC, go "my computer" and right click on the iPod, then choose "format". Ensure the settings are at "default" and that "quick format" is not checked. Now select "format". It will take a while, but when that's finished, restore the iPod using the updater.
If you need to, reset the iPod to exit disk mode.
If that doesn't work, then it most likely needs service.

HT1768 Itunes will not open and play. It says "Itunes has stopped working". I have deleted and reinstalled Itunes (three times), same with Quicktime. i have updated the driver, but it still won´t open. Any other ideas?

My laptop is Windows Vista.

Having the same problem - am running Win 7 Pro 32 bit. Discovered that when you close iTunes task manager shows that iTunes.exe is still running and will not close unless you reboot. I have also found that after starting Win 7 that if I launch iTunes by inserting a CD, the CD plays and displays all tracks correctly. However, if I eject the CD and insert a different one neither Win 7 or iTunes recognises the CD. These problems seem to have started with the release of 10.5.2 - prior to that no problems at all. Have tried reinstalling and it does not make any difference.

HT1473 my computer crashed and i have a new computer with new itunes, i am trying to get my music from my old iphone 4 into the library but as soon as i unplug the phone it no longer appears in the library

my computer crashed so i have a new itunes and i am trying to put my music from my old phone into itunes, it doesnt transfer only shows up when my phone is plugged in?

The iphone is not a backup/storage device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You shouldcopy everything from your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. This one of the main reasons it has laways been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer.

Hi olddawg66,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
There is a new process called Family Sharing that I would suggest you take a look at.

I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them.

How do I completely clear my ipod music, and how can I solve the syncing problem?

Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

I recently download a song with my IPOD Touch 4G. The song appears in my iTunes music library but not on my IPOD. I've tried syncing several times, but I cannot get it to transfer to the IPOD. Any suggestions??

Use 3rd party software like:

HT204387 can you listen to music with your ipod touch 4g and a bluetooth handsfree device

can you listen to music with your ipod touch 4g and a bluetooth handsfree device

Yes if the BT device supports the profiles supported by the iPod. See:
iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles
The A2DP provide is used with speaker and headphones
The Hands Free profiles (HFP) is typically used with headset (headphones and mic).

Trying to pin background music with no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks

Trying to pin background music with no luck. Following instructions, I click on name of background audio bubble and drag horizontally. The whole bubble moves and does not pin, ie, does not turn purple and no pushpin shows up. Any suggestions? Everything is updated on computer. Thanks. Larry

does not pin the music to frame of video. I followed directions from book, IMovie'11, the Missing Manual. Will not pin.

So I keep trying to sync music to my iPhone from iTunes, and whenever I select the album the sync goes by really fast and nothing goes onto my phone. Then when I click "On this iPhone" it shows the songs, but they're grey, and I can't click on them. Help?

Ok, sorry. And yes, I just restored my iPhone as new and tried to put all the songs on there before I even restored with my previous backup, but it still does the same thing... even when I just checked the option to sync only "selected music or videos". How's that possible?
P.S. After I tried syncing with checked songs only, nothing showed up under Music on my phone and this message popped up in iTunes: "The iPhone "..." could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish." If you could, please tell me what that means, thanks.

ive tried everything and ive been to the store which was when i was given a new ipad mini. i have a a windows PC please help thanks

Are you attempting to sync music from your iTunes Music Library on your PC?
What options do you have set on the Music Tab for your iPad in iTunes?
What happens when you sync?
Any error messages?

I can't get my music to play in my itunes. It comes with a exclamation mark next to the song numbers and says that the original songs can't be played cause cant find the file. How do I get the songs back? (I found the files)

You get exclamation marks or dead tracks because iTunes can’t find the file. This can happen for a number of reasons:
The song file or a folder in its path was renamed
The song file or the folder it is in has been moved
The song file has been deleted
The device containing the song files e.g. external drive is not accessible or the drive letter has changed.
If you use an external drive, a change in drive letter is a common cause and you need to change it back.
AS a way of working out what has happened, right click on a track and select the summary tab (you will have to go past an error message). The summary tab will tell you where iTunes thinks the track is located. How does that compare with where the track actually is?
The xml library file is not used by iTunes, it is created to allow other programs to access the library. You can recreate the iTl file from the xml file, but there is no point if the location of the files is wrong.
There is a simple way of getting you music back in iTunes, but it loses all playlists counts and rating. To do this drag iTunes library.itl and iTunes Library.xml to your desktop. Then open iTunes and an empty library is created. Add you iTunes Media folder to it.
If you can't work out what went wrong and how to fix it, you may have to do this.

I've tried everything I can think of to get my Iphone 4S to play albums like an Ipod does. All it ever does is play the songs but not the albums in alphabetical order. I used to think I was reasonably intelligent until I butted heads with this phone.

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.

The search bar can be very valuable...........
In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad? If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

I cannot play music with my slideshows. I setup the music but it does not play, even with my older slideshows I hear no music.

This category is for iPod shuffle. Is that the type of iPod you have, because your description of the problem does not sound like it's about a shuffle? If it's not a shuffle, what is the iPod model...?
There is music there and I can play it connected to laptop.
Are you doing the playing using the iPod, or are you playing the music using iTunes on the laptop?
All mucis icons read "No music" and this is not correct
Do these icons with "No music" appear on the laptop's screen, or on the iPod's screen

I can not export imovie 11 to youtube. I tried exporting with quicktime so I could upload through youtube,but it had no sound. Very frustrating. When I upload through youtube it looks as if it is working, but I get no confirmation. Tried it many times.

The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

OK I tried you fix distorted music with QuickTime it fixed most of the songs but some still start kinda ruff...my iTunes version is 11.3
