OMG Please help me - my itunes stops playing after 2 tracks

Someone please help me.....I have recently been downloading a couple of albums from the internet and drop and dragging them into my itunes. I have done this about 3 times succesfully and itunes plays these no problem. Since last week, I have been trying to play my itunes, then all of a sudden, the sounds stops. The play bar at the top keeps going, but for some reason, the whole of the sound stops. Nothing out of my speakers. This happens every time! I have unistalled itunes and reinstalled it to the new version (I think I was on version 7.0.1 in any case) I have defraged, disk cleaned, reinstalled my itunes library manually....OMG everything I have done! I have tried to install an older version (to the one I was on already) and it still happpens. I have no idea what the **** to do - I have never had this problem before. I did a virus scan only the other day and I did have viruses on my pc, but they have been removed. On the version of itunes I have at the moment, it won't even recognise my ipod (2nd gen 4gb Nano) Please help me!!! I can't even find a bloomin number for apple either and I am going to throw myself and the pc and itunes out of the window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Windows XP

My video playlists from iTunes stop playing after about 3 episodes on Apple TV 2. Is there any fix for this?

My video playlists from iTunes stop playing after about 3 episodes. It just appears to buffer for no reason. I have checked to make sure that the hard drive that these movies are on does not go to sleep. Any ideas?

Why does my iTunes stop playing after a certain amount of time?

When I begin a Playlist in iTunes on my 2009, 24 in. display iMac, it will suddenly stop playing after a few songs. I have looked through
every setting I can locate, but am unable to correct this problem. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

On the webite for the station. look for a Listen link for another type of player. Many stations are going away from streams that iTunes can link to. while you're on the website. look for a Contact Us llink and report your trouble. They might not be aware there is trouble.
Do a Get Info, go to first tab and Edit URL.. Copy and paste the stream URL here so others can test it.

ITunes stops playing after a few songs (my resolve)

After about 5 songs I was getting perplexed why it would stop playing in the middle of a song (there was no audio) but the play button was still showing. It always happened in the middle of the 5th song or at toward the end and it ended up being my power settings to turn off the monitor after 20 minutes. The monitor never did shut off because it was my plazma tv connected hdmi. (It would flicker and come back on sometimes)
Anyway I run XP MCE on a home made htpc. MCE Tunes (3rd party app to bring iTunes database into MCE). Thought this might help anyone that has this issue.

Sorry...I didn't intend this to be posted in this forum.

ITunes stops playing after a few songs

I am running iTunes on a Macbook Air, the music is stored on a time capsule. I also run the Remote App on the iPad.
I play back songs through the Airport Express and after a few songs, it stops playing (always when a song is over - NEVER during a song). I hit play to start it again but the busy icon shows for a bit and nothing happens.
When I switch the audio output back to "computer" it starts playing, when I switch back to the airport express then, the playback works again - until it eventually stops again.
The Airport Express doesn't seem to be an issue, as we received a NEW one yesterday with the same thing happening.

Hi jakeloveslucy
Thanks for your feedback. However, just to clarify: my iTunes Library is not stored on my TC itself, yet on a separate HD that is USB'd to the TC.
Also I wonder where it's stated that a iTunes Library is 'meant' to be stored locally.
Regards.

Itunes stops playing on Windows 7

I have just installed the most recent Itunes 64 bit for Windows 7 (10.6.1.7)
Itunes stops playing after about 5 songs if there is nothing else running. If there is another program running, it happens after a minute.
Everything seems to work except music playback. The play/pause command can be clicked but the progress bar won't move and no audio plays.
The problem also occurs when Itunes is started in Safe Mode and also when a new library is created.
I must close and restart to hear music another 4-5 songs before the situation repeats.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Music purchased and downloaded from iTunes will not play in the Windows Media Player.
Try re downloading the album >

ITunes stops playing and cannot connect to Remote app whenever the computer display turns off??

I have a Windows system with iTunes, and an iPhone with the Remote app installed, through which I use to play music on iTunes. Until recently iTunes would play regardless of whether my monitor was on or not, and I could connect to iTunes with the Remote app regardless of the monitor state. Now, however, after updating both iTunes and Remote with the new versions that came out around the time of the iPhone 4S release, whenever my computer turns off my monitor, iTunes stops playing at the end of the current song and the Remote app cannot find iTunes. This is not a system sleep state, I just have the power options set to turn off the monitor after 15 minutes of inactivity. Sleep and hibernate are disabled on the system and always have been, expressly for the purpose of allowing iTunes playback via Remote. If I jiggle the mouse and the system turns the monitor back on then I can manually reenable playback, and Remote can connect to iTunes again. I can't find any setting in Preferences that would control this. How do I fix this? Thanks.

I'm so glad someone else is having this problem. I am in exactly the same situation!
1. Windows Vista
2. Upgraded iTunes to 10.5 and upgraded remote with iOS 5
3. My computer has never been set to sleep, but the monitor turns off after 20 mins.
4. If the monitor goes to sleep, itunes stops streaming music and Remote can't connect to it
5. If I change my monitor off time to 1 hour, then in 1 hour itunes will stop streaming - it is ABSOLUTELY connected to the monitor sleeping. Almost like iTunes can't connect to the network the the monitor is off.
Please help! I have been using remote for a year and this didn't happen until I upgraded to iTunes 10.5.

Itunes stops working after say half hour of use and will not play next song, the only way to get it working again is to close and reopen, then it works fine till next time, but the problem keeps returning

At various stages over the years, mouse-related iTunes trouble has been associated with driver conflicts. So it might be worth following up on that possibility.
Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of PC, and check to make sure you're not behind on any chipset and input-device-related driver updates. (And while there, just in case, also check to make sure your BIOS, sound-card/integrated audio, and video-card/display-adaptors are up to date.)
If you're behind on anything, and you update, does that help with the mouse-related iTunes issues?

After doing an OS update, now iTunes stops playing music after playing a few songs.

Same Problem here. Also, when this happens, it loses whatever album art was playing before. I've tried reinstalling and it doesn't help. Any ideas how to fix this? It's really annoying!

Why does my iTunes stop playing when I close the lid on my laptop?

I am playing iTunes on my Vista laptop and my setting are 'do nothing' for both powered and battery use, but when I close the lid iTunes stops playing music. Does anyone know why and how I stop it? Please don't say "don't close the lid..." Thanks.

You have your answer... there is no way to stop iTunes from stopping playing music when the lid is closed.
You can try adjusting the power settings, but if that's not working...there is no way for iTunes to override it.

Please help!
My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

Holding down the shift key while iTunes is opening. That will bring up the 'choose iTunes library' dialog. Select 'Choose LIbrary' from the choices and navigate to your music folder and iTunes music folder.
