Preview Songs Stops Randomly w/ Win 7 & Solutions Not Working

SInce the 10.6 itunes update I have had issue with preview songs stopping randomly after between 7-20 seconds.  I have tried the recommended solutions on other posts to flush DNS cache files as well as repointing to open DNS server (8.8.8.8) to no avail.  I can preview music on other sites, notably Amazon, and other devices in the house can preview songs in itunes without issue including iphone, ipad, and mac notebook.  I am running WIndows 7 Home Deluxe version on Comcast gateway modem/router.  Given other devices work with itunes I don't think this is a router issues, and since my computer can preview music on other sites I don't think it is my machine.  I think there is an issue between Windows 7 and itunes that started with the 10.6  update.  I am very frustrated.  I have contact Apple Support via email with no reply.  Even went to local Apple store and they hadn't heard of the issue and wanted me to bring in my computer.  I am a cycle instructor and really depend on the preview song feature to find and purchase music and really need a solution.   PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if you have a solution I would really appreciate a reply.

Doublechecking. Have you tried resetting your iTunes Store cache?
Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:
... and then click OK.
Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

  • Videos Won't Play and Songs Stop Randomly

    *These problems are on my iPod Nano 3rd Generation, Blue, 8GB*
    I added a video to my iPod, it will play on iTunes, but when I select it to play on my iPod, all I get is a black screen.
    Also, with a few songs, even one that I downloaded from iTunes, they will stop randomly in the middle of the song and go on and play the next song.
    I never had this song problem with my old, 1st generation nano.
    What should I do?
    Is it faulty? Should I return it back to the shop?

    If you downloaded iOS 6 - YouTube is no longer included in the iOS.
    If you are not running iOS 6 - go to Settings>General>Restrictions and see if you restricted YouTube.
    If it isn't restricted.Swipe from screen to screen and look for it. If you still can't find it....
    You can reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    For the videos - quit the app completely and then restart the iPad and try again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or ... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Or...Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. When the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

  • Task created to stop and start Health service not working.

    We have multiple servers being grayed out so we created a task to stop and start the health service on SCOM 2007 R2. We have created two tasks one to stop and another task to start. The STOP task works but the START tasks keeps running but there is no result
    as well as when i check in Services.msc it is still stopped. Below are the screen shots .
    Task created to STOP the health service which is running.
    Screen shot of service start task creation which is NOT working
    The same was created for another service windows audio. Which worked for both stop and stop (Created separate tasks).
    We also tried the recycle health service and chche which is also failing.
    Can any one please help. The issue is on both SCOM 2007R2 and 2012 R2 both. Is there any other way to touch the health service.
    We are facing the issue only with Healthservice.

    Hi All,
    Thank you for all your answers.
    @ dktoa -
    You are right we have to concentrate on the servers to determine why do they go grey (all in one site). But before we do that i felt i find a temporary solution. Then go deep investigation to solve the issue.
    @Yan LI: As per the likn provided above you. I overrided the servers but still the health services were not starting or restarting. When i created a custom group and added the servers to that  group in that site and then  enabled the override on Restart
    Health Service for a specific group and pointed towards that group then it worked.
    Thanks All.

  • Excel Macro Solutions not working after Citrix update

    Very random question to see if anyone has experienced this. My team creates solutions for users to use with legacy systems to process work. The solutions are created in VB and deployed to keyboard shortcuts for users. Recently the company went to a citrix
    environment. The last couple updates to citrix has caused issues for users where it looks like everything is working but nothing happens. Upon further investigation some references are missing but even when added back the solutions will not work. Ultimately
    the users Citrix profile has a reset done and they reload all the solutions to make them work. Has anybody run across this before and might have any ideas what is causing it.  Nobody on my team (developers) has had this issue only end users. Neither the
    team or help desk have been able to pin down the root cause. 

    Hi ddorsey,
    As this is not about the Excel application itself, I would recommend that you report this problem to Citrix. Let them confirm if any settings have any effect on Excel application.
    They've provide various support channels for customers:

  • ADB for A2107A-H win xp not working

    Hi,
    I just bought a new A2107A-H running Android 4.0.3. To debug a few apps I wrote with the eclipse ide I tried to connect the A2107A-H with adb - no success. The adb runs on win xp.
    I tried the suggestions in the thread ADB for A2109 and red a lot but it seems using Google's android adb usb driver package and patching the inf file with the USB IDs of the A2107A-H does not work.
    Questions:
    1. Any idea (ha ha) if/when lenovo will provide a usb driver for the A2107A-H?
    2. Did one of you guys manage to make it work with win XP?
    3. Does it work with linux?
    4. Does it work with the adb via wlan app?
    Any help welcome.

  • Why is my Intel iMac restarting randomly and USB keyboard not working randomly?

    My intel iMac has been randomly rebooting itself without any error messages.  It also seems to coincide with the keyboard (USB) not working, but not always.  At first, it seemed to happen right after waking the computer from sleep, but now it happens when I am just sitting at the computer about once or twice a day.  For now, i have temporarily removed all external devices (except time capsule) and disabled any bluetooth or iTunes synch'ing over wifi.  I have also disabled all power management features.
    I've tried different keyboards and resetting the SMC.  Could bad memory cause this?

    Could be anything from a loose power cable, to loose or bad RAM module.
    1. Check all your power connections, including the mag connector on the back of the iMac.
    2.  Reinstall the RAM modules, as per > iMac: How to remove or install memory. When installing new or reinstalling RAM, be sure to push firmly on each module with both thumbs to insure that they are fully seated in the slots.
    Then if it is still acting up...
    3. Run the > Extended Apple Hardware Test

  • Double-click in Excel XP Win XP not working

    I have installed the 6.5 Spreadsheet add-in on over 10 systems on my network. Typically the systems are Win98 running Office 2000. This last week we installed 5 WinXP systems running OfficeXP.I installed the Essbase Add-in on three of the XP systems and thought all was well. Last week one user complained that the double-click function was not working.I tested the other two installs and they work fine.I check the ESSBASE-Options tabs and the double-click option is checked.If I un-check this option, and double-click, the system 'edits' the cell, which is what we'd espect. When I check this option the system appears to do nothing. Right-click also appears to do nothing.I have uninstalled the ESSBASE add-in , and re-installed it, and found no difference. I have also 'repaired' my office installation.There only seems to be one instance of Excel running. Multiple instances seemed to be an issue in the discussion boards.This particular user 'customizes' the desktop, fonts, icons etc. all the time. I keep thinking there must be something in that area that is compromised.Any pointers? Any experience? Any help?Regards

    Maybe that user change something in the zoom in section of the essbase options... maybe set it to formulas...

  • "PC health monitor driver" on Satellite L750D with Win 8 not working

    Hi,
    I use a Toshiba laptop (model: Satellite L750D psk4ye).
    Yesterday I upgrade this Windows 7 to Windows 8 pro (32 bit).
    I installed some driver but when I try to setup pc health monitor driver in my computer it is not working.
    I try one more time but failed again.

  • Songs stopping randomly

    it doesn't seem to be happening anymore. it was playing off my hard drive and i believe i was only running firefox at the time.

  • Play ends when song ends - Shuffle and Continuous Play not working

    I'm pretty sure I did not install an update prior to this starting. Since the problem began, however, I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled to see if that would solve the problem and it did not.
    I typically play songs, on shuffle, from my main library. When I open iTunes shuffle is automatically selected and I click on the play button to choose a random song. Since this past thursday when I click the play button nothing happens. I have to manually choose a song to play. Once the song has ended iTunes does not choose another song (if on shuffle) nor does it play the proceeding song on the list (if on normal play). In order to play another song I have to choose another. Once that song ends I have to select another and so on.
    I have checked the settings and I don't see anything that could be effecting the way iTunes plays the songs.

    *Figured it out*
    Somehow, all of my songs where not checked....

  • "Display Unavailable" red canvas screen-forum solutions not working. URGENT

    I a few days ago I started getting, in the midst of editing, my canvas going red with the message "Display Unavalible" in it. After this, the sequence would not play. If I close the sequence and try to reopen it, I get an error window which just says "error:out of memory". I found this problem on the board and tried three solutions: deleting all of my render files in render manager (didn't work); trashing FCP preferences (didn't work); checking for any CMYK stills in the timeline (there were none, but there were greyscale clips, I removed them, still didn't work ); and making the sequence offline, then reconnecting all clips and re-rendering (that worked, then it happened again after working a while).
    I am in a very tight deadline situation for the screening of this film and must find a solution to this problem! Other sequences in the same project appear to play okay. It seems to be this sequence only. I have done a few things differently in this sequence than I have in others. Maybe they could provide some clues as to what might be causing the problem.
    1. I upgraded Magic Bullet for Editors and have applied several effects (problem started after installing MB, for what it's worth).
    2. I am also using Natress filters (including frame rate conversion/deinterlacing) on top of Magic bullet filters.
    3. I have dv source footage which I have enlarged up to 300%, sometimes with filters applied to those clips (yes I know this is highly unorthodox but this is a punk rock movie and I am experimenting).
    The last thing that I did was remove frame rate conversion from all Natress effected clips that also had Magic Bullet Filters on them, reduced all clips to 100%. Then when I when to reconnected the clips the **** thing did it again.
    Is there anyone out there who can help with this? I can pay for extra assistance if necessary!
    Thanks so much,
    Patrick

    Thank you for that, I also found this article, silently hoping that this was not the case. On one hand this is good news, as I can get it repaired for free, while on the other I now need to find a way to back up my data without my screen.
    As a side note the computer screen did light up last night, on a random restart. However, it once again will not turn on, and I may have lost my chance to back up my data. The symptoms fit a burned out video card, so I guess my next step is heading on over to the apple store.
    Thanks again for the article, I'll be printing it off and bringing a copy with me.

  • Really my question is about after effects, which then renders to a quick time movie.  I have imported music into after effects many times, and all of a sudden after import and playing it under ram preview, it stops about 4/5 through the work.

    when I import a song into after effects it only plays 4/5 and then stops.  I'm viewing it in RAM preview.
    the composition time is fine.
    can you help me???
