Songs will continue to play with no sound...

when I use iTunes and I am playing songs from my library of purchased music, the song will be playing along, but then the sound will drop out. When I look at the iTunes Screen it looks as if the song is still playing, but no sound. If I pause the song and restart it, the sound returns. Also if the song finishes, the next song will start off with sound. This seems to occur only when I have my VPN connection established with my company (Cisco VPN client). Is there any settings that I can change to make this not happen? It is very annoying.
Thanks,
cmccoy2

I think it has to do with my Cisco VPN Client being connected. Apparently iTunes is constantly going out to the Internet when a connection exists to do something. I would guess that it has something to do with the DRM. When I disconnect from the VPN connection, then it seems to play with no issues. It would be great to be able to turn off whatever it is that is trying to connect to the Internet when I am just listening to music, but I haven't found that option. Thanks for the response.

Try again. If the problem persists contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I spilled some pop on the back of my iPad. I cleaned it off and everything seems to be going good but when I play music it will either play with no sound or play then continue with no sound. What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2)

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't work, there isn;t much anyone here can do for you. It may be a physical problem with your speakers.

I have a iPhone 4S and when watching videos on the internet sound cuts out as the video is playing. The rest of the video plays with no sound. Sometimes when I pause It and play again sound comes back but not all the time. can anyone help?

The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

Getting a flv file to start playing with no sound

Hello,
I am trying to get my flv file to start playing when the page is loaded with no sound, but I am have no luck. The flv file starts playing fine with the sound on, and I can turn the sound off with my volume controller, but I need it to start playing with no sound. Please help.

you can use the soundmixer's soundtransform to control all volume but, unless you have multiple sounds, you should probably use the netstream's soundtransform.
in either case, to start your video with no sound, assign the volume property in you onMetaData function:
function onMetaData(data:Object):void {
var st:SoundTransform = videoStream.soundTransform;
st.volume = 0;
videoStream.soundTransform = st;

Videos play with no sound!!!!

All the videos that I have in itunes play with no sound. the picture is fine, Just no sound! This seems to be the way it is for videos that I have imported, and videos that I have purchased from the music store.

Holy Cow,
I think I figured my problem out. Go here -
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
Do the exact opposite, uncheck the box. When I unchecked it, the sound problems disappeared, I can hear everything, the voices sync up with the video again, and it seems to work.
We'll see how long this lasts...
Good luck!

Purchased Songs Playing with no sound on Touch

I upgraded my Ipod software on Sunday and ever since my purchased songs will play on my laptop through Itunes but they play on my touch without audio. I've removed them from my itunes and added them again with no success. Anyone have a solution to this problem?
Thank you in advance.

I should also add that this problem applies to tracks purchased from iTunes and tracks imported from CD's equally. I do not have any ripped music.

I have downloaded songs and when I play them they stop playing. I have to hit the sleep/wake button for the ipod to come on and hit play, then the song will continue playing where it left off

Why are songs cutting out in the middle and my ipod shutting down?I have to hit the sleep/wake button to turn it back on and hit play again. Then, the songs will play from where it left off.

Strange Itunes Problem? (Songs Will No Longer Play)

Alot of my songs have just randomly stopped working lately. When I try to play certain songs nothing happens. They won't start playing (and there is no question mark next to the song asking me to locate the file). If I right click on the song and select "get more info" then on the "summary" tab the 4 song details on the right are gone, "Format", "Channels", "ID3 Tag", and "Encoded With." Also the song lyrics and album artwork are no longer modifiable.
I have noticed alot of songs becomming like this lately. I have over 6,000 songs in my library, so I don't feel like going through and finding every song that has been "corrupted" but I have discovered, 25-50+ songs so far, sometimes even full albums no longer work.
The wierd thing is that these songs will NOT play in iTunes or Quicktime, but they will play in Windows Media Player, Winamp, etc.
One thing I've noticed is that alot of the songs that have been "corrupted" were added to iTunes roughly around the same time, but have worked fine for 6+ months up untill recently. Im not sure if it matters or not, but all my music was NOT downloaded from the iTunes music store, or NOT ripped from CD's, but downloaded from limewire, bittorent, etc. Also I'm using the latest version of iTunes (6.0.4.2)
I've tried searching for an answer to this problem but failed to come up with an answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'll try and post some pictures later...
Windows XP

I have been experiencing (or became aware of this ) the same issue since 5/3. I spent a day on and off the phone with apple, itunes and today I finally contacted HP. Of course HP's advice was the same as all other computer sites (Dell, HP etc)....restore or reinstall OS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Apple blames it on Itunes, Itunes blames it on Apple, HP says to reformat my pc to "right out of the box" and I am totally numb at this point!
I know this has something to do with ITUNES latest version as that is when all my problems started. Doesnt do any good to remove and reinstall........
I have done the following:
removed and reinstalled both itunes and quick time standalone
verified that itunes was in my safe sites
turned off my windows firewall.....
restored my computer to April 8th......
I have lost 4 workdays trying to resolve this issue. I am at the point that Music match is looking really good!
I know this is frustrating......I am into my 4th drink!, but hang in there until about a million of us complain
Apple TS, I told them to go out to the itunes discussion board and get prepared!!
Doestn appear that enough of us are complaining....or we all have better things to do

MP4 songs will no longer play in iTunes

For some reason, maybe updating itunes, my MP4s will sit at 0:00 on pause when they are played, or get selected by shuffle. I dont know why this is happening. Most of them are from one artist, because I downloaded their music when it was free online, but they are all in .mp4 format. They are not videos, but songs rather. They have worked for years and played smoothly up until now. Most of them are even rated so they play in "My Top Rated." The weird thing is that they WILL open and play in quicktime, AND on my Iphone. So what is the deal with them pausing at the beginning and refusing to play in itunes?

Got it figured out - Upon furthur inspection inside the music folder there was a hidden folder with some files in it for each song... dont know why or how they got there, but I delete the whole folder and transferred the music from another computer that was playing them smoothly, and WA-LA! So it must have been the files. Still don't know why it happened though

My phone goes silent mid song, the song shows its still playing but no sound. if I try to turn up the volume its greyed out

My phone goes silent mid song. It shows the song is still playing but no sound. If I try to turn the volume up its grayed out...how do I fix this?

try doing a soft reset. push and hold the home button and power button at the same time until the phone powers off completely. only release the buttons when you see the white apple pop back up on the screen if this doesn't work you will likely have to do a complete factory reset which can be found in general settings of the phone. hope this helps!

Playing with no sound via Airport Express

Several posts over the past year have been archived with no answer to this question:
Why does iTunes 7.0.2 stop playings songs when both the computer and an Airtunes Remote (in my case connected via a base station) are selected for output?
Stops between songs
Plays a random number of songs between 1 and maybe 30
The next song is playing according to song progress bar
Pause and play restarts
Other sound (Quicktime movie or Safari sourced) plays
Audio MIDI Setup Line Out set to 44100 Hz (often changed by MPlayer which is not the self-billed greatest)
Computer is not trying to go to sleep
Aiport Admin Utility Wireless Options Multicast set to 2 (experimenting with 1) and Interference Robustness enabled (experimenting without)
Boot ROM MP11.005C.B04
Best guess: downstream of iTunes the audio output hardware negotiates with the network but when it gets a no-go flag clamps the stream from iTunes keeping it from even playing through the line out port. Possibly a firmware bug.

Not using Front Row.
The real issue here is that audio and video stream at different speeds and it is hard to maintain sync. You know how when you hit play within iTunes it takes a while for the song to start through the speakers? It's the same with the DVD. So you'd need to work an offset into the audio when playing a DVD and it's not an exact science.
You can download VLC player and mess around with the offset, then you'll also need a program like Airfoil to be able to force audio through the airport express.
Good luck!

[SOLVED] FLASH and Mplayer automatic fasforward playing with no sound

Hi,
This has been the second time it happened.
When I was playing some video at the background with SMplayer. All in a sudden, the playing stopped. I closed and restarted it:
last time: the video fast-forwarded automatically without any sound, same problem with VLC; [the problem got "fixed" only after I rebooted my host Window 7; restarting the archlinux guest didn't help.]
this time: VLC (there was an update in between) can play at a normal speed, but still no sound; as for smplayer, no sound, fastforwading automatically.
And, in both times, flash in firefox fast-forwarded automatically with no sound.
I have Archlinux/Xfce4 in virtualbox hosted by Windows 7. I have been using it for about one month. The problem occurred in last two days.
Thanks,

Video playing with no sound in iTunes, playing with sound on iPod

When I try to watch my videos on iTunes the video plays but the sound does not, it even happens on videos that I bought from the music store. The sound for my songs works just fine, just not for video. They work when I play it them on my iPod, too. Any ideas?

i updated to 10.4.7 and it worked.

Songs will continue to play with no sound...
