Starting partway through songs instead of at the beginning

for some reason, itunes is starting partway through songs (between 5 seconds to a minute or so), instead of at beginning. i don't have crossfade on, not that this would result in such an action. when i click the progress diamond back to the start of any song, it plays normally from the start, so i know the files aren't corrupted.
what gives, and how to troubleshoot? thanks.

Hi
By BEFORE burning the DVD - control that in organizing mode (sort of block diagram) Your movie HAS NOT ended up in the top left hand box "Auto Start box" - If so - move it over to next box in line.
AND - still before any BURNING
Save as a DiskImage.
Double click on this new .img file created
Test play it with the DVD-tool (in Applications - in Your Mac) - To see that all functions OK

  • Itunes started speeding through songs with no sound

    All of a sudden, Itunes has started speeding through songs, as if on super fast forward. There is no sound, and it moves on to the next in a hurry. I updated Itunes and Quicktime this morning and it still continues. Any ideas? I've run malware and spyware checkers, with no findings of anything bad.

    Yout computer has one volume button and iTunes has another. What position is the volume slider in itunes? To the right will increase volume.
    You can check your System Prefs>Harware>Sound to see what your system settings are.

  • When I start firefox through shortcut icon on desktop, the message comes that Windows cannot find C:\...\jqsnotify.exe

    When I start firefox through shortcut icon on desktop, the message comes that Windows cannot find C:\...\jqsnotify.exe . Tried to search the file through Search also but could not find the file.

    That is the Java Quick Starter, a couple of options for you:
    # Open the add-ons manager (in the Tools menu select Add-ons)
    # In the list of Extensions, click on Java Quick Starter to select it, then click on Disable
    When you re-start Firefox that should stop the error.
    The second option is to re-install Java. You are using an old version of Java so it is recommended that you install the latest version, available from http://java.com/

  • When playing music, at the end of a song, instead of playing the next song in an album, it repeats the song that was just played

    When playing music on an Ipod Nano, at the end of a song, instead of playing the next song in an album.  The previous song repeats.  Any help?

    Check the iTunes Playback preferences and see if the Crossfade Playback option is turned on. If it is, you can either uncheck it or alter the slider to a more pleasing setting.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes will only play one song. I have to hit play to start a new song. I have the shuffle on and I am in a playlist. I am running Windows 7. How do  I correct this to randomly play music, by itself?

    iTunes will only play one song. I have to hit play to start a new song. I have the shuffle on and I am in a playlist. I am running Windows 7. How do I correct this to randomly play music, by itself?

    That's consistent with all the tickboxes to the left of the tracks (in Song view) being unchecked.
    Go into Song view and Ctrl-click one of the empty boxes to do a "global recheck".
    If you can't see the tickboxes, head into your General preferences tab and select "Show list tickboxes" as per the following screenshot (it's for an earlier version of iTunes, but the boxes are in roughly the same place in the recent versions 11.x):

  • How can I get a start-time modified song to play with the modification on my ipad2? The sync shows the modification.

    I shortened a song in my PC iTunes music library by using "get info" options and start time. The change shows up in my PC iTunes library for the song and after syncing, in my ipad2 music library when hooked up via USB. The song plays at original length on my ipad2. Weirdly enough, after syncing with my iPod, the song plays at the shortened length on the iPod. A previous sync with the ipad2 sent the shortened version to the iPad with no problems. The next time I synced, and 50 times later, all I got was the long version. It's a trivial matter but I need the song for a slide show presentation at a high school and the first few seconds of the song feature an expletive that I obviously can't use. Help! This is maddening.

  • Dowloaded Itunes, not playing on ipod...... scanning through songs instead

    It does not play on my ipod.

  • My classic iPod is syncing all songs instead of just the ones checked

    my iPod classic is syncing all songs from library rather than just the ones checked and is not giving me the pull-up screen to make this change

    To stop it from syncing automatically when you plug it in, in iTunes, choose Edit > Preferences. Click Devices. Select “Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.”
    If you click on your device name (from the left side menu) you can check "manually manage music".
    You can choose what to sync with that selected .

  • Song pause/skip at the beginning of each song

    I've recently been experiencing my music pausing for a second when a new song starts playing. The music will just stop playing for a short time after the song has begun. Sometimes when I quit iTunes and open it back up, the issue is resolved temporarily... But eventually the songs start skipping again. I have the latest version of iTunes, but I'm not sure if that's the reason why this is happening.
    Any suggestions?

    This sounds just like what happens on my Rio Karma and my 5G iPod when I play certain albums containing tracks over 10 or 15 minutes long. Gapless playback isn't quite perfect in these cases, because I think the devices simply don't have enough memory capacity to buffer ahead when they're dealing with such long files.
    I really don't know how to solve your particular problem, and I don't think I've ever experienced this in any version of iTunes since 7.0. It sounds vaguely like a memory/buffer handling problem to me, though. Do the playback problems coincide with anything obvious, such as a large amount of Internet activity with media file caching and so on? If so, I might start by checking your browser, QuickTime, and other application preferences to keep them from caching or at least set some minimal limits. I have been using Cache Out X for years and setting it to run at login and clear Internet-related caches, and I believe this has helped at least to some extent in improving overall application responsiveness and performance.

    thanks

    Hi Gak,
    Thanks for the suggestions. I still didn't got it to work though. I moved the stop command to inside the while loop like you said but it didn't work. The problem seems to be in the communication between the producer/consumer loops. When I run the VI in highlight, the queue message "trigger camera" leaves the producer and arrives at the consumer loop in the appropriate time, starting the "trigger camera" state of the case structure. However, the message "stop" doesn't seem to be sent by the producer loop, so the consumer doesn't receive a signal to start the "stop" state of the case structure. Can you think of anything I should change in the producer loop so that the second state (stop) is added to the queue?
    About the functional global, I read about it, it seems that either that or a local variable could work, but I don't quite know how to implement it in my state machine, since the stop of the first while loop isn't activated in the "stop" state but in the "shutdown" state. It works more or less like this: after 10 loops of triggering and stopping the camera, light and valve (so after acquiring 10 movies), it goes for shutdown. Can you show me what you had in mind with the functional variable?

  • My ipod classic 160gb will be playing fine then it sometimes freezes up or start shuffling through the songs not playing at all. After i reset it works ok for a while then same thing. Bought this so i could control through my steering wheel/radio.

    I sure hope someone can help me with these ipod classic 160gb issues.
    My ipod classic 160gb will be playing fine and then freeze up (unable to move around in it at all) and i have to reset it. This happens constantly whether in my car or when i listen at work. After i reset it works ok for a while then eventually requires another reset.
    Another problem is that it will be playing fine and then start shuffling through songs without playing them. The songs that get shuffled work fine in the itunes program but not on the device. A reset does not correct the problem with these particular songs.
    Also, sometimes when it is working and not freezing up or shuffling through, it will appear that a song is playing (in fact it says "now playing"), the song titlte is scrolling, but the song progression bar does not move. The count up in front of the bar stays at 0:00, and the count down at the end of the bar stays at the song length minutes not counting down. After I reset, it works fine and all the songs will play.
    The reason I got this thing was because i can control it through my steering wheel/radio while i'm driving. I previously had a Zune 80gb which i'm glad I held on to. I have over 6600 songs (so I'm obviously a serious music listener and obviously frustrated), but only about 10 songs were downloaded through itunes, the rest I either ripped or downloaded from other site. From what i've been reading it sounds like there's a lot of ipod owners out there experiencing similar problems. Does anyone have any suggestions to resolve these issues for me and everyone else? I got my first iphone 8 months ago, then the ipod and was considering an ipad. But in light of my ipod issues.....
    I hope someone can help me and convince me it wasn't a mistake to go Apple! Thanks!!

    I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
    After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

  • Music starts halfway through a song

    Just wondered am I doing something wrong.... When I'm listening to my music some tracks start halfway through the song and not at the beginning. Any help would be appreciated

    Have you tried updating it and doing a restore with the latest iPod updater (2006-03-23)? You can go here and install the latest updater on your PC and then hook the iPod up and run the updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    Doing a restore will wipe everything off the iPod, but once connected to iTUnes, it will load everything back up. More on restoring can be found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
