Songs skips after latest itunes update

Hello guys,
I've just updated Itunes at the beginning of March and after that start noticing weird things going on with my Ipod classic. The other day I wanted to repeat a song played and clicked back to return to it, the screen showed that this song started playing, however the song i could hear is the next song on the playlist. when i clicked back and forward, all went to normal. Minutes after I decided to choose another playlist and when I tried to leave the other playlist to the main menu, the screen got frozen for about several seconds.
Then after a week, today I've downloaded an album of songs and put it on my Ipod. Then I decided to play, but the songs in this album did not play, it just skipped the songs. I decided to check other albums, and the result was the same, I clicked the song and it just stayed at 00:00 and didn't play. However, then I went to one folder with just one song and it played all right. I decided to restore Ipod. When it turned back on, everything was back to normal.
I have this Ipod for about two years, and had no problems with it at all. I have it in the case, and the only accident I can remember is when I accidentally banged it on my desk, but it's in a good case..
I fear there may be some hard disk issues, but have suspicions that all these problems are associated with the latest release of itunes. Any ideas, or maybe there're some of those who experienced the same thing lately? Thanks!

Try this Hard Reset, (it wont delete any song or data on your iPod), from time to time to clear the cache.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

If it doesn't work, bring it in to Apple Store for the Genius to have a look.
Good Luck!

Iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done all trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail.

iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update. I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

After latest iTunes update I get error message when syncing:

"iTunes could not sync information to the iPhone "name" because a connection could not be established to the iPhone". Same for my iPad, same for both even after upgrading to IOS6.0. Any ideas?
I tried to carry out a restore on the iPhone but iTunes cannot back it up.
Is the latest iTunes broken? or is it just me?
I am on Windows 7 64 bit, Never had this problem till the latest iTunes update.

So I am unclear, did you purchase these songs or import them from a cd?
If you imported them and still have the CD try importing them again and see if they work the delete the others.
Or if you purchased from itunes re-dowwnload and see if they work. Maybe they are corrupted files and this should resove it.

MSVCR80.dll file missing (after latest iTunes update). Unable to reinstall iTunes either. Fixes?

After installing the latest iTunes update, I am unable to open iTunes (The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer). Plugging in my iDevices won't prompt iTunes to open, either (they are viewed only as mass storage devices). I attempted to reinstall iTunes, but recieved an error message that said I had insufficient rights to install (I am an administrator). Is anyone else having similar problems? Is there a way to fix it that won't include uninstalling the current version of iTunes? Don't want to lose all my files! Thanks for a rapid response, Community. I appreciate all the help I can get.

Cannot purchase when signed in after latest ITunes update

Since the latest ITunes update I have not ben able to purchase anything through the ITunes Store. I've tried signing out > restarting ITunes and signing back in which works fine, but when I try to purchase I'm prompted for my credendials over and over again. I repaired permissions, and I get no errors - just more prompts. I know the credendials I'm entering are valid, and the update is the only change to my system since my last purchase. I disabled my firewall as well. Anyone else having this issue?

Unfortunately it won't go into disk mode. Even tried the "put your ipod on a flat surface" trick. I'm wondering if the battery hasn't stopped holding a charge. But it seems the symptoms would be more like a constant battery icon. Instead I'm getting the sad face everytime I try to put it in disk mode or reset. Ideas? Throw ipod against wall? Blow on it like old-school Nintendo cartridges?
Oh, and yes, it is Windows formatted.
Any and all help would be appreciated.

My PC won't sync with iphone 4s or ipad after latest itunes update

When I plug it in, it asks to trust the computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I have tried different usb ports and turning off the firewall.It was working ok til the latest itunes update.

Did you click on Trust? What happens when you do? When you removed and uninstalled iTunes, did you use this support document and follow the instructions exactly? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923

After latest itunes update i can no longer drag songs using home sharing.

Previously, I was able to open home sharing between my husband (his mac) and my computer (pc). But after the itunes software update on my pc, the ability to import and drag songs is gone. I have done it many times before. I see the home sharing library and can browse through it. But can't take any action with it. Can't import to library or to ipod.

With your iPhone connected and selected in iTunes, in Summary pane, select Manually manage music and videos.

Screen blacks out after latest itunes update installed

last year after installing an update for itunes my screen blacked out. it then intermittently worked for a few days before failing permanently. this was later fixed by replacing the inverter board. i didn't suspect the two events were linked. however, yesterday i got the latest update for itunes and again a few minutes after installation my screen blacked out! deja vu... it seems unlikely but is it possible the screen fault is caused by updating itunes?
this morning the screen is working again and i have run system restore to undo the installation. fine, but when i try to open itunes it starts installing again.

Thats odd. Not sure what this error means, but you could always try repairing disk permissions, that seems to solve most of the random errors that occasionally pop up on my OS X macs. Load the OS X install dvd into the drive then restart your machine holding the C key. choose english as the main language. Then go into the utilities menu and select disk utility. Click on your hard disk then click the repair permissions button. Once completed, restart the computer into OS X. Then try your screensaver again. If this doesnt work, post again and I'll take a closer look at it.

Non-Library Synced music lost after latest iTunes update. Help!

I downloaded/update to the latest itunes which caused my phone to be reset to its factory settings. Although my contacts, photos and apps ect. were recovered, my music was not. I had a lot of music (2500+) on my phone which was however not synced to my itunes library as most of it was purchased from other sources. They were all normal MP3 files but now I don't know how to get them back! Surely iTunes couldnt have just wiped all of my music, could it? Please please please help me!

If you have content that is on the iPhone but not on the computer then Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device has useful tips. If it has now gone from the iPhone too then you can still recover your iTunes purchases.
What do you see if you drill down into the Mobile Applications and Music folders inside iTunes Media? Are you certain the content has been deleted?
If you've not done too much with the drive since things went wrong, then an undelete tool might recover some of the lost media. FreeRecover looks promising... Select the drive, use the options to get file paths and check file integrity, then, presumably, you can restore anything that has been deleted from within the media folder that looks recoverable.
While it is understandable that you blame Apple & iTunes for losing the media you could have just as easily turned on your computer to find the entire drive fried. You need to be prepared for such by backing up all your important data to at least one secondary independent location.

Music On Ipod lost after latest Itunes Update...

I just updated to the new Itunes software, and after plugging in my Ipod Touch to add some new content to my playlist that I had just purchased from the Itunes store. Itunes froze up and would not respond. When I finally got it running again, all the music that was on my Ipod, (over 2000 songs) were no where to be found, I said I had no content. When I plug the Ipod into Itunes on the computer, it shows all of my music, but will not show up on the Ipod. Any Ideas Mr. Jobs???

Unauthorized Computer After Latest iTunes Update

I just updated iTunes, and when I plug my 80Gb iPod in, iTunes launches and a message comes up telling me the computer is unauthorized and gives me the option to enter my Apple ID's passsword. I enter it, and get an error message:
"We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-42408). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later.
Now if the iPod isn't plugged in and I try to authorize the computer I get a message telling me that it's already authorized.
Anyone else getting this error, and if so, were you able to fix it?

My solution was found here "http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11021537" but it looks like M1k3 found out that you don't have to play a song that's protected but just authorize after bringing up iTunes after ejecting the iPod. Mine is working fine after authorizing w/o the iPod docked. I even went so far as to unauthorize all computers B4 finding the solution.
Have a Blessed day
