Playing a mix cd in iTunes

Hello all,
Just imported a mix cd into iTunes. In order for all the tracks to play continuously as intended on the cd I have gone to preferences, set the crossfade playback on, and set to zero. While there is no fade in/out between the trax there is a little jump at the mix point from one track to the other. can anyone help?
also, any idiot tips on difference in quality between AAC and MP3?
Thank you!

This has been expected behavior in iTunes since version 1.

  • Transferring dj mixed cd from itunes to ipod

    i am trying to transfer dj mixed cds from itunes to my ipod but when i play the album from the ipod it has a pause break in between tracks and doesn't play as a continous cd as a mixed cd should.
    can anyone advise on what i need to do on so that the pause doesn't happened.
    thanks changoman

    Welcome to Discussions!
    iPods don't support this feature--which is referred to as Gapless Playback.
    The only workaround I know of is to import the CD as one giant track rather than several individual tracks.

  • Rating Songs While Playing Genius Mixes?

    I love the Genius Mix feature of iTunes. But I also like to rate my music for making smart playlists. How do you rate songs while you're playing Genius Mixes. There is no stars to click when you mouse of the the mix folder. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Thanks, Garbeth, that works.
    Apple - really?  Why can't I just have a LIST VIEW of genius mixes again?  Just becuase this works doesn't mean it isn't totally combersome and frustrating.
    Sometimes a list really IS the best answer.  I have to click someplace to see if I've already rated a song while using Genius to randomly play my music?  Is the goal to discourage our using Genuis?  If so, it's working.  And I really sort of liked it...

  • Every time that I play a tune from my itunes the file duplicates itself into my 'MyDocuments' folder. If I delete this the song is erased from itunes totally. Ideas??

    Everything worked fine for the last two years but now every time that I play a tune from my itunes the file duplicates itself into my 'MyDocuments' folder. If I delete this the song is erased from itunes totally. Ideas??

    You are of course deleting the tunes from within the iTunes interface.
    The settings that I am referring to are your device settings for the iPad. It should show in the left column of iTunes when your iPad is plugged in.
    Go through your playlists and make sure that the tunes(s) are removed from any playlist. You can prevent the sync as noted above then do a sync and the iPad should update with the content from you Mac.

  • How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play in quicktime but not iTunes

    How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play with quicktime but not iTunes so I can't sync them

    Th AVPlayerHD works well for playing other video types.  You can transfer the videos via USB in the app tab in iTunes on your computer.  When you open that tab when you have you iPad connected to the computer scroll down and you will see apps listed on the left and a blank on the right.  Click on the app and then click on the add button under the blank window on the right.  Then navigate to the video you want to play and it will transfer it to the iPad.  I have about 14 movies on mine using AVPlayerHD.  works very well.  Also have VLC player (before it was yanked from the app store).  Works about the same.
    You can also get the app Air Video and stream the video to from your computer to the iPad, and even have Theo ad connected to the tv to watch on there.  I do that all the time with my iPhone.  Saves time with not having to sync movies all the time.

  • How do I show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11?

    I'm looking for a way to show plays in Artist View in iTunes 11. A dialog box pops up when going to View > View Options,  but nothing about changing what information can be diplayed.
    Anyone know anything about this?
    Thanks!

    I do not believe you can. If you want to see plays you need to use The songs View. If you turn on the column browser you can select by Album and in the grid below you should see count. If not then View > View Options and select Plays from the Stats section.

  • When  i play a song from my itunes library, there is a short "buzzing" sound about every 20-30 seconds. I had the problem before and thought it was fixed after verifying that itunes was my default player. Any ideas to fix the problem now??

    when i play a song from my itunes library, there is a short "buzzing" sound about every 20-30 seconds. This same thing happened some time ago, and i thought i had it sovled by verifying that itunes was my default player. Howerver, it has started up again. Any ideas how to fix the problem??

    I am having the same problem I have over 11.5 GB of .tmp files, many 1000s. Here is a thread I have found with some more info:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=824308
    That thread is almost a year old so I'm not holding out hope for a fix from apple. I'm going to try deleting them and see how it goes...

  • PLEASE HELP! My Ipod touch will not play anything from or in itunes.

    I don't know what to do. For the first 4 months everything was great then all of a sudden my Ipod would no longer play anything from or in itunes. I can not transfer anything from itunes to it either. It looks like it has been transferred on the ipod and in itunes under my device but it will not play anything. I can download directly into the ipod and its fine.  I listen to audio books from library sites as well as buy them but now it does not work unless it can go directly in the ipod which library sites need to come from your computer and them be transferred after its downloaded.  Can anyone help me?  I even have a brand new ipod thinking it was the other one but its not. I have windows 7 64 bit. Also I have uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing changes. Thank you.

    - Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next restore from backup
    - Last, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    My play lists and songs on iTunes and on my iPhone won't play.  They are light grey instead of black and nothing happens when I click on the songs.  All of the songs were either from CD's or from iTunes that I purchased. I have home sharing turned on. This is a new issue.  It used to work fine.  I tried restarting my iPhone and syncing with iTunes. Neither worked.  Please help!

    Try delete those songs using iTunes by de-selecting and sync. After that mark those songs and sync again.

  • IPhone loses play counts when syncing with iTunes

    I would like to repeat the question from this thread, which has mistakenly been marked "answered".
    When syncing with iTunes, not all play counts are transferred into iTunes. When I turn the iPhone off, it even forgets the complete list of played songs (it is even deleted from iTunes itself).

    I have similar problem. Played podcasts becomes UNPLAYED after synch with iTune.

  • TS3771 How do you play 32 bit media in iTunes?

    When users of itunes purchase 32 bit media in the itunes store, 64 bit itunes doesnt play it.    You can no longer open itunes in 32 bit mode even if you check that box.  so what should users do?

    Thanks for responding.   Let me get specific.  I bought Beware of Mr. Baker and Crank 2 movies in the iTunes store and downloaded them to the latest version of iTunes on a Mac Mini that is less than 1 year old with all updates installed.  Niether movie plays.  Instead, a notice comes up that says that the movies do not work with this version of iTunes, and need to be played using Quicktime.  I can do this, but for the rest of the people in my household, it is difficult to the point of complete opacity.   ...so there is a support discussion that says you can play them if you open iTunes in 32 bit mode.  But when you do this, iTunes will not open at all, and gives you a notice saying that it can't run other than in 64 bit mode.
    I just want to double click the movies I bought in iTunes and have them play.  What am i missing?

  • Can't play HD movies purchased from iTunes on Windows 7 without Internet connection

    Purchased (not rented) Wreck-It-Ralph from iTunes and downloaded it to my local drive. I confirmed that the file is, in fact, in a local directory. However, when I pull up the move's details iTunes it states that the file is in iCloud. (Library > Movies > R-click movie icon > Get info > Summary tab > "Where iCloud".) Every time I try to play the movie, either by playing it from iTunes or by going to the file itself and opening it via iTunes, it won't play unless I'm connected to the Internet. And even then, there's still a long pause before playback actually begins. It almost looks like it's trying to buffer it.
    If the movie file is taking up 3gigs of space on my computer (that's authorized to play content from iTunes), I expect to be able to take this video on the road.

    You need to authorize your computer to play your
    husband's songs, by putting in his iTunes account
    info on your computer, (Not your computer's
    password.) meaning his login and password of his

    He used my account to purchase the song.
    If you did enter his iTunes account information and
    the song still not playing it could because the
    iTunes store is down for upgrading,

    SOLVED!
    As suspected, my problem of not being able to play or import CD from iTunes 8.1 was internal to iTunes (with a little help from me). iTunes does not recognize the drive letters of A: or B: I wanted the drive letter configuration of my computer to be C:SYSTEM and D:DATA, so I changed the optical drive to A: just like the old floppy drives used to be. (Going old school.) Since iTunes will not accept that, I changed the drive letter of the optical drive to O: (for optical) and everything works.
    To do this, go CONTROL PANEL>SYSTEM AND MAINTENANCE>ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS>COMPUTER MANAGEMENT>STORAGE>DISK MANAGEMENT. All your drives should be laid out in front of you. (If your optical drive isn't listed, you might have to insert a disk and from the menu bar select ACTION>REFRESH.) Left click on your optical drive to select it and then right click on Change Drive Letter and Paths... Select Change, enter any unused drive letter greater than B: (D: is common by default, O: seemed to work) and OK your way out of it.
    Changing my drive letters has probably left me open to problems from other programs that don't taken drive letter flexibility into account, but iTunes works for me.
    I am e-mailing this to the Apple tech who tried unsuccessfully to help me, placing suspicion on everything except the coding of iTunes. Hopefully, Apple will put this in their knowledge base, because it seems to be a common problem and few know the solution.
