Volume keeps changing automatically while playing music in iTunes

Recently my iTunes has started to automatically change the volume up and down while my audio or video plays in iTunes. This happens when I'm playing from my library and also when I put in a DVD/CD. It does not happen on my iPod after it is synched through iTunes, though. It's quite annoying and I could use some suggestions in fixing this glitch. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Has anyone else experienced the stopping and starting again while playing music in iTunes. It was fixed but with the last update it has started skipping again.

Has anyone else experienced the stopping and starting again whil playing music in itunes. It was working fine wit the prior fix, but after the last update
it started skipping again.

Try it in another vehicle see if it still happens, at least you can narrow it down to your phone or the car. My 4s play totally fine, I have never had any of those issues. Maybe its time to restore your phone and start over. I would also have someone else play their Iphone in your car, see if it happens to them. Or try yours in someone elses car. Good Luck!

Sound stops while playing music with iTunes Match

While playing music from iTunes Match, the sound stops. The music continues to play but there is no sound. If I double click the song, the sound will start again. But after that song is finished and it advances to the next song. The sound will stop again and I have to double click the song again. Other sounds on my MB-Air will still work. Anyone else having this issue? Thanks

It happens to me too. I listen the most on my iPhone. Song is playing, but no sound. Sometimes I have to close the app and relaunch to recover. Very annoying.

Win XP Blue Screen of Death while playing music in iTunes

For the past two weeks I have been trying to fix a problem with my computer, that crashes everytime i play music in itunes.
The music stops playing, or gets hung up on one note for several minutes, my screen freezes, and then I get a blue screen with error message 0x0000007A.
I have already done checks of the hard drive and RAM and according to the computer's diagnostics there is nothing wrong with the hardware.
I tried re-installing itunes but this does not help.
Any ideas?
Dell Inspiron 6000 Windows XP Pro

im just gonna keep all sound disabled at first. then if there are no errors, ill enabled onboard, still if none, ill put audigy in a different PCI Slot and update drivers. come to think of it I dont think its drivers were the most recent ones...
by the way, I have a question about my motherboard. In another forum on this site I told about my problems with it (rather, my stupidity). At first I put the backplate on the motherboard with no insulating thing on it (had ripped it all off lol) so I had powered on the comp many many times shorting out the circuits surrounding the cpu socket. When we took it off, we pryed it off (was very hard because it was sticking), being careful not to scratch any circuits. My question is, is it possible that damaged the motherboard, and is causing my problems with the blue screen? It seems to me that if Ive made it this far (played games on the comp at full load and what not) then the motherboard must be fine. But I could be wrong..?

Trying to have a break between each song while playing music in iTunes

Hi there
When Playing music in iTunes the songs run without any break - that is something like 5 seconds before the current song playing is supposed to finish, the next one already starts to play. I hope to have a break between the songs - only when the current song reaches an end, the next one begins. Is there a way to do that? I would appreciate your help.
Thank you
Zak

I have the same problem. I have the crossfade set to four seconds and have made sure that the "part of a gapless album" is not checked. Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks.

How to restore the volume control while playing music in iTunes

How do I recover the volume control (slider at the bottom of the screen) in iTunes when playing music? After I plugged the device into an iHome speaker, the volume control dissappeared.

generdude,
Not that I know of, but you can turn it off completely by going to System Preferences...>Sound>Sound Effects>Alert volume: (Uncheck) Play feedback when volume is changed.

Nano 7th generation turns off automatically while playing music

Start playing music and the nano shuts off at random times, usually in the first minute, even with full battery

The headphone jack on the Nano is very tight when it is new. Push the headset jack farther in, there should be no space between the plastic on the headset jack and the body of the Nano.

Commercial ads behind my music while playing music in itunes?

While listening to my music in itunes I hear commercials and other songs behind the music. Any answers on how to get rid of this?

You're really running OS 8.6 (or earlier) as your computer profile indicates? You must be using iTunes 1 or 2. There's certainly no Dashboard widgets with OS 8.6.
How do you have this set up? If you are using wired speakers in there somewhere it is possible you are picking up radio stations with the speaker wires and need to introduce a RFI choke in the setup.

ITunes seems to be skipping/hiccuping while playing music during browisng.

Hello Everyone
So for the past month or so I experience intermittent "hiccuping" while playing music through iTunes on my PC. Songs don't skip in the traditional sense of skipping from one song to the next ... instead it's more like a blurp/drag. It lasts for about a second or two and then it stops. It happens mostly when I'm web-browsing. I've tried using another browser but nothing seems to help. my PC is three years old and it came with Windows 7. I've used Windows 8 since it became available so I guess that's about two years now, I'm on to Windows 8.1. My system has a 1TB hard drive, 4 GB of RAM, and an AMD Athlon X4 640 3GHZ processor (I don't know much about processor specs but I thought I'd include it to be as thorough as possible). Of the TB of Hard Drive space, I've used less than 40% of it. I've run virus scans, malware scans, I've made sure my defrags and Windows updates are up to date. There was recently an update to iTunes in the last day or so - and I was really hoping this would be fixed - but the problem seems to be getting worse.
I'm to the point where I'm ready to download Google Play and just use iTunes solely for syncing my iPhone 5s. I cannot continue to put with playing music in iTunes with this problem. I'm at my wit's end. I've considered "dumping" everything on to an external hard drive, wiping my system and starting fresh ...
Anyone have any thoughts, ideas?

It may just be your DVD player. I have found
this
with some of my DVDs. They work fine on my player
and
skip on others.
That results from a high level of burn errors as a
result of low quality media and/or high burn
speeds.
Hmm, maybe. I never (knowingly) use crappy media.
I always use Imation discs (mainly because they are
fully printable - and I thought they were meant to be
good quality). Also, I cant see where to change the
burn speed. I always burn a disc image and then use
Disk Utility to burn a disc. It just does it
automatically and doesn't seem to offer any choices.
How can I get it to burn at slower speed? I'd
prefer not to use third party software if poss.
OK, you've got me worried now.
I've just checked this

and think I'll be off tomorrow to buy some new discs.
Thanks for alerting me.

While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and slide the scrub through songs. This has always worked for me until now. I have not changed any settings

While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs. This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings. This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.

I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue. I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off. I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then, test it out again. Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.

For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”

Suspending the Screen while playing music...

I noticed while playing music for long periods of time this bad boy gets hot. So I tried suspending the screen while playing music. The screen shut off but the music still plays ;0) (go apple). So now I shut the screen off when playing music and that seems to help the battery life as well as the heat it puts off.

I have been looking for an answer for it myself and here are the opons :
1.having an external diplay will disable slep mode with close lid.
2.there are programs that will force it to not go to sleep (sleepless,insomnia ) - risky !!!
3.turn off the screen (by dim all the way) and keep it almost closed ....
i know non of the above are perfect for you and its realy nice to have it closed when not in use but apple will not give you service if you use the programs and it will overheat.....so dont. please,dont.
tomer
p.s. don't!

Lock screen while playing music and charging

I thought recently Apple had made a change so that the lockscreen would show your album art while playing music AND charging at the same time. Right now I'm playing music and charging, but the lock screen shows the battery charging. Is this a change or am I mis-remembering?

That is strange. I do not get album art when the phone is locked and an album is playing. All my albums have album art too. I will reboot and try again, maybe it's a bug in iOS4.1?
FIXED !!! -- I just rebooted my iPhone and now it works. Strange.

Touch screen doesnt work only while playing music.

While playing music, the touch screen does not respond. I can only change songs by locking, then double tapping the home button. The touch screen works fine for all apps and home screen. I can't change albums, songs or anything. I have not dropped the Ipod or exsposed it to water. Have no insurance on it. Thank you in advance!

Don't play songs!
If it has never been jailbroke, the following may help.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.
