Songs with Lyrics being skipped
Hello, I have about 100 songs randomly in my iTunes list that have added lyrics to them, and although they play fine on my computer, when I try to play them on my iPod (60gb video) they skip about 90% of the time. I don't view lyrics really, but it's annoying when I want to hear a song and it won't allow me to. I have just deleted all my songs with lyrics that I could find, but I was wondering if there was a solution that would allow me to keep the lyrics.
All my songs have album art if that matters.
I have this problem ,but a didnt check if it was associate with the one whos got lyric,i have mp3 and aac,and one song that i buy at the music stores did that.
Somethime the 2 firts song skip but mossly the firts one,mp3 and aac,Ive just check and it seem to associate whit lyric but not all the time
And its log to turn it off when its happen!
I call apple et they send me a box to return to get repair ,but i go at the store where i buy it,and the give another one,i put only 700 song to starte and it was working good,after i put everythig 7500 song,and it starte doing the problem,im always using the shuffle maybe its that,and my labrairie is on an another hardrive
Should i put my labrairie on the main hardrive ?

How to play karaoke song with lyrics
I've purchased a couple of karaoke songs, but when I play them the lyrics don't show. Is there something else I need?
The Music app on the iPad doesn't currently support lyrics (http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html), so you'll need to look in the app store for a third-party music app that does - you could also do a search on this forum to see if any have been recommended.

ITunes Match sometimes skips / plays songs with exclamation marks
Using iTunes Match (v10.5.3) from my MacBook (OS X 10.6.8) I synched about 60G of music located on an external hard drive connected to my home-based AirPort Extreme base station into Apple's cloud. It works great from my iPhone and the iMac in my remote office, but occasionally when I connect with my MacBook I get these confounding exclamation marks between the song list number and the selection check box.
When this happens and I attempt to play a song with an exclamation mark sometimes iTunes prompts me to connect to the hard drive connected to the Airport and when I don't the exlamation points appear. Other times I can play the songs, but only if I individually select them; otherwise it skips all the songs with exclamation marks until it finds a local song (or recording) (i.e. without an exclamation mark).
Sometimes restarting iTunes gets rid of the exclamation marks, sometimes it doesn't. I've noticed that I often have this problem when I upload new music to the Airport-connected hard drive. But sometimes it happens without me uploading.
Through trial and error I'm starting to get a sense of what's happening but it still feels kind of arbitrary. Can someone explain what's happening?
Many thanks in advance.The problem is that iTunes thinks the external HDD is not connected so it can't find the actual song files. So the problem you need to solve is why is the external HDD not connected.

How to use karaoke songs with show lyrics
i am trying to record on garage band, it is pretty easy to bring in reg songs and do a vocal over on it butt my problem is that i want to use karaoke songs with the lyrics on the screen and record different layers one for instrumentals and one for vocals is this possible or is there anther way to do this ?
Unfortunately, Lr can only use a single song. The usual workaround when a longer piece of music comprising multiple songs is required is to join the songs into one. However, this must be done outside of Lr.

Problem with Apple Lossless, skips some songs! Ipod Video 30 gig
I would love to play my music in higher quality then mp3 so i re ripped my albums to apple lossless (knowing ipod don't play FLAC) but when i try to play a song the ipod often skip the song and go to the next song and when i get it to start playing the first song, it can skip every other other song (from one to three) what's up with that?
My firmware is 1.2.3Hi,
I brought my ipod yesterday and had the exact same issue. it would skip certain songs frequently and was extremely frustrating. Im not sure if this is the case for all ipods (i have an ipod nano 16Gb 4th gen, with firmware 1.0.4), but i fixed my issue in a series of steps. Im not sure which exact part of my method did the job, but here it is:
1. plugged it into iTunes and clicked "restore" under the tab "summary". WARNING: This will delete everything, and restore factory settings. im not sure if this is necessary, but youll need to delete the songs which skip anyway.
2. pressed the eject button IN ITUNES (under "devices", and next to your ipod icon), ejecting the ipod. wait for the ipod to specify when it is ready for it to be unplugged. proceed to unplug said ipod.
3. Choose the language of your ipod, and go into playback settings and (settings/playback or something) and turn OFF "shake" and "energy saver"
4. Plug your ipod into your computer again and drag all the songs onto your ipod using itunes.
5. after it has finished copying, WAIT until the ipod no longer says "synching", and until it says "connected"
6. Press the eject button IN ITUNES (again, under devices, and next to your ipod icon)
7. Eject when the ipod says it is ok to do so.
As i said, im not sure which part of the method did it for me, but i think it might be the way in which i was ejecting it. Before i was ejecting the ipod on my desktop. I think it is important to eject it using itunes. Anyway this fixed my ipod. Im not sure if it will do the same to yours, but if its making you very angry (to say the least) like it made me, its worth a try i guess. I would appreciate it if people let me know if this works. -
I booted up my computer and opened up my usual shortcuts. I got a message from iTunes that a new version was available and would I like to download it. I clicked on "yes". It took over 1/2 hour to download and now ALL of my songs sound like a skipping record or like they are tripping over themselves. I uninstalled the ITunes and tried reinstalling my old version. I've tried EVERYTHING I could think of to get my old version back but everytime I go through the download process I get a message saying that - the file "iTunes Library.itl "cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. I was finally able to download a version that will open but it has the same "skipping" problem. How do I stop/fix this or COMPLETELY get rid of this version of iTunes and re-download what I had??? I'm REALLY distressed. Jim
Usually, the exclamation mark tells you that the song was not where the program expected to find it. It may also mean that there was an error with the file itself.
If you click on the exclamation mark, it may give you a reason. You can also double click the file to make it play. If the file is not found, it will tell you. Just follow the prompts to look for the song again. It will ask you if you want to look for the other missing songs in the same folder. You can do it, but unfortunately, the last few updates have made the program blind to the songs that are there and you sometimes have to do the same process for each song.
If neither of these help, I would suggest starting from scratch and reinstalling iTunes. I have had to do that before. Do your best to back up the library and such first.
Sometimes a computer will rename a hard disk (Windows) and all the songs on that disk will be gone to iTunes because it will think it's looking in the right place. It can't recognize that the hard disk or partition has been renamed.
I know that this is a podcast, but the principle is the same. A dialogue box should pop up to tell you just what the problem is.
I hope this helps! -
I assumed this would help my problem with not being able to open apps like Preview or TextEdit since I installed Mountain Lion. Instead, first I'm prompted to enter a password, then once I do that, I get an error box telling me the Library needs repairing. So I click on Repair, and once again I'm prompted for a password, which I enter, then the same error box opens, and so it goes. Can anyone help me with this problem? I'd greatly appreciate it.
ThorBack up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Step 1 should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary, and if everything is working as expected after step 1.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -
Syncing a blackberry curve with Outlook 2003 on Exchange 2003. Using internet email for blackberry. When syncing, the data moves between the device and Outlook without an issue. However, I constantly get an error message about one item being skipped. It will say Address Book Handheld 0: Outlook 1 and to 'see the log file for details'. I look at the log file but can't really get a clear picture of what is going on. It also repeatedly tells me it is going to add items to the Calendar, even though they have already been synchronized. I removed Desktop Manger entirely and downloaded and reinstalled the newest version. I exported all contacts to a PST, deleted them, synched to empty the contacts, imported back to Contacts and resynched. Same message. Do I have a corrupt Contact? How do I find out?
Hello kimscoles,
It looks like you might want to check out this article for your skipped contact during synchronization "Records skipped during synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager".
hope this helps

In one of my 'playlists' in Itunes it comes up to about the 7th song and when finished skips to about the 47th song?, instead of going to #8 What gives?
There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery. -
Hello
I've got a problem With my 3rd Gen. Ipod touch:
when I add lyrics to my songs at ITunes by the usual way (Get info->lyrics)
and I sync my Ipod Touch, the lyrics doesn't appear on the screen when I hear a song.
What's interesting, that I put hebrew lyrics to one of my hebrew songs, and when I heard this songs, the lyrics appear for a second and the disappeared, and every time I hear this song, the lyrics pops-up for a second at the beggining of the song, and then disappears for all the time..
What should I do?
Thanks, AharonHmm..
Try converting the ID3 tags to an older version in iTunes, then syncing the updated changes to your iPod.
_To convert the ID3 tags to an older version via iTunes:_
1. Locate the songs you are unable to retrieve lyrics from on your iPod
2. Right->click on it and choose "Convert ID" tags.
3. A small window will pop up with a few options for you to select.
4. For the best results, tick the option that says ID3tag version, and choose either version 2.2 or 2.3 for the version (2.4 has been known to cause issues).
5. After the conversion has finished, sync the updated changes to your iPod.
You may need to restore your iPod as well and start from scratch to try and resolve the issue.

Burning CD's works fine, BUT when playing the cd, seconds are being skipped
Hi,
Burning CD's works fine here, but when I play the completed CD, every 30 seconds a second of the song is being skipped. It's like it jumps one second forward.
Any ideas for this problem?
I already tried to solve it by rebooting and burning the playlist a second, or even a third time, but even this ended up in CD's I can't use.
Thx!i've got a similar problem (see posting 25th nov.) i've no solution - have you got an answer? thx

Is anyone else having this issue? Any tips?

Severe flex timing issues: song with varying tempo
I've been having a ton of trouble with flexing a drum track on a song with minor tempo changes (The song speeds up at the first chorus, and at the outro, so I programmed those into logic's tempolist so that the metronome would follow). Every time I turn on rhythmic, Logic speeds up the tracks (the wavefiles go green where the tempo change begins, and end much sooner than the files which are not being flexed). The only way I can get them to revert is to turn flex time off. It is driving me crazy as I only need to correct one minor thing, with a deadline approaching.
Incase it will help more, here is what I have done.
-Grouped drums together.
-clicked editing and phase locked audio
-turned on flex
-clicked slicing
-Logic analyzes the files
-suddenly everything is out of whack.
Is it something I'm doing wrong, or is it a bug in the system. Is there any way I get get Logic to analyze the files again? Any help is GREATLY appreciated.I bounced and replaced all tracks, analyzed them again, and everything is working fine. Has anyone else experienced this bug?

I have recently purchased an album from iTunes but although I see it in my music library none off the songs play they just skip through to the next one repeatedly. I since downloaded another song and this work perfectly
Does this only happen with the tracks you have downloaded from the iTunes Store? Perhaps you should work the suggestions in this Apple support document first.
