Songs lock/skip when doing ANYTHING online

Recently, probably a month or so, any time I try to play music in iTunes and do anything online the music skips. Ie. Open a browser, click a link to a site, try to write anything on a website (as in what I am doing right now in this message), send/receive messages in MSN, pretty much anything that deals with the net causes my songs to continueously skip. Seriously annoying. Does anyone know what would cause this and how to fix it so I can listen to music again normally!

I've had this problem increasingly since about v6 came along. I have 2Gb of RAM and 3Ghz processor, yet if I try and do anything else whilst itunes is playing, I get stuttering playback. Itunes seems to be going the same way as realplayer - over complicated and buggy. All I want is for it to library my music and play it back, but Apple try and get clever adding all this extra crap and now it can barely play a song.
Only solution I've found is to ctl-alt-del to Taskmanager, go to Processes, right click on the itunes entry, and select 'High' priority. This doesn't fix it entirely, but it does improve it. You have to do this every time though.

  • List of songs marked "skip when shuffling"?

    I've marked a number of songs to "skip when shuffling," and I have no problem with that.
    However, my computer's hard drive just crashed and I'm putting Humpty Dumpty back together again. I was able to keep the music (including some I'd deleted between the time of my last backup and the crash), but not the libraries and playlists.
    And the things like "skip when shuffling."
    So.. on my old computer, is there a way to get a list of things I'd marked that way? Then I'd get at least most of it.
    I'd ask if there was a way to transfer the libraries, and I started to, but I'm going to go ahead and do some other cleanup, too, so what the heck.
    Thanks!

    If you need it, I have a script that creates a playlist of any tracks excluded from the shuffle, FindSkipOnShuffle.vbs, which:
    creates a playlist "skip on shuffle" if it doesn't exist;
    deletes anything in that playlist if it already exists;
    adds any tracks that are marked as skip on shuffle; and
    displays a message that tells you when it's done (because it's slow, taking about a minute to scan through 10,000 tracks, it's nice to know when it's done).
    If you want to run this, just right click on the above link, save it to your PC, and invoke it while iTunes is running.

  • My iphone 5 keeps crashing all the time and has a delay of about 3 seconds when doing anything on it i did a factory restore on it but it didnt fix the problem

    my iphone 5 keeps crashing all the time and has a delay of about 3 seconds when doing anything on it i did a factory restore on it but it didnt fix the problem i went to optus to see if they could help me as my phone is through them but they knew nothing i need help please my phone is only 8 months old

    Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

  • Songs are skipping when played on secondary hard drive

    Hey all,
    I have a late-2011 Macbook Pro. I installed an SSD and then replaced my optical drive with my original HDD. I re-linked my iTunes media folder to be on the old drive. Everything in my library is playable, however songs are skipping and sometimes iTunes freezes completely. Any reason this would happen? Could it have something to do with spotlight indexing or is it a sign of something more serious? Just yesterday all of these songs were playing fine with the HDD as my primary.
    Thanks!

    I am not familiar with the insides of a MBP but I am wondering if putting a HDD on a bus designed for an optical drive is what is causing the problem.

  • Strange error when doing anything with yaourt

    Hi
    I have just installed yaourt from the AUR on my arch install (with LXDE, if that makes a difference) and whenever I do anything with it, it gives me the following error:
    shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    This will happen whenever I run any command to do with yaourt, such as:
    yaourt -s virtualbox
    Normally, I only get one error, and then the command continues as normal. It does not appear to be affecting yaourt in any way. However, if I run the command as root, with sudo, I get many errrors. This is the output from running "sudo yaourt -s virtualbox":
    shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory
    Basically, my question is whether or not this is 'normal', and whether or not it would be ok to just ignore it. It is quite annoying, so can anyone see a way to stop it?
    Thanks

    Hmmm... I haven't done anything, except maybe update the mirrors with pacman -Syy, and now the problem is gone. I don't know how I fixed it!
    Sorry for any inconvenience.
    Would I mark the thread as solved? Because it wasn't really solved, the problem merely 'disappeared'. What should I do?

  • When doing anything that would require log in, i get promted for a password. When inputting the correct password, the iphone does nothing as if i hadn't even put it in.

    As title, very annoying.
    Basically my boss registered again with the same email. No idea how, but now 2 other devices prompt for password and when inputted it just cancels the action as if i havn't even tried. Tried removing payment details etc but to no avail.
    Any help appreciated.

    Yes, you can exchange the handset for a refurbished out-of-warranty product for £216.44 (includes shipping + VAT).  Treat your objects like women - with love, and respect.

  • When does the online store restock?

    currently looking to get a PS4 GTA V/Last of Us bundle and it's out of stock in the online store, when can I expect it to be restocked?

    Didn't you already ask this question and get a response? This bundle hasn't been around for quite a while already, and you have been told that there is currently no information about it being made available again, which probably means it won't be after this long of not being stocked. There are newer games coming out that there will probably be bundles with instead.

    Mac-user myself, so I can just offer generic advice …
    Boilerplate-text:
    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

  • Crazy lag / slow / when doing anything with text

    CS6 on PC with 16 gig new ram and i7 and inDesign and Illustrator are both giving me lags. Especially on ID, when I try and use the type tool to select text it takes four to fifteen seconds for the top toolbar to turn over to text! WT*?

    How many Fonts are currently installed on your PC? Are you using a Font management program? From InDesign preferences, set the Live Screen Drawing to "Never" which is inside the Interface panel. Turn the Preflight panel off by unchecking the On option within the Preflight panel. Within Preferences > File Handling panel uncheck the option "Always Save preview images with Documents". Disable Autocorrect if its on within the preferences. Within the Pages panel, go to Panel Options from the flyout menu and uncheck "Show Thumbnails". From the preferences > Display performance choose Fast display.

  • G5 Crashing when doing anything that requires some effort!

    Intially I thought this was a FCP problem as I was having problems rendering anything over a couple of minutes, but I have now have the same problem converting VOB files using MPG Stream Clip namely: the screen goes grey, the fan goes bonkers and I get a message that I have to re-start. It has done this 4 times now.
    I have a Power Mac G5 Quad 2.5ghz with 14GB of RAM. Is this a RAM, overheating something more sinister?
    Thanks,
    Dame Hyndman

    the screen goes grey, the fan goes bonkers and I get a message that I have to re-start. It has done this 4 times now.
    That's a kernel panic.
    Could be hardware related, could be software.
    Have a look through this:

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Itunes Freezing when doing anything!

    I have an Itouch (I believe it is a 3rd generation.)  I tried to sync it to Itunes (latest version) but it keeps freezing up Itunes. 
    Initially I tried to sync and it got stuck in the back up.  Since the App icons were white I decided to do a restore to factory settings.  That has not helped the freezing issue. 
    I plugged the Itouch in and it froze for about 5 minutes.  It then asked me to set up my Ipod.  I typed in the name and hit enter and it is stuck again.  Okay, a couple minutes later it is trying to back up.  Shouldn't take long because there is now nothing on it.
    I am not sure what to do.  This is going to drive me CRAZY!
    My husband has been able to sync his Iphone without trouble.
    I am running Windows 7
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you using any iTunes Plug-ins/widgets. It sounds as though there is something activating iTunes.
    You can see what plug-ins you have by running iTunes diagnostics. (iTunes>>Help>>Run Diagnostics).
    If you're using Windows Live Messenger or have it running in the background - uncheck the option to show your current song as your personal message.
    As a diagnostic test, you can run iTunes in a special "safe mode" which disables plug-ins.
    To open iTunes in "safe mode": Press Control-Shift while opening iTunes
