Weird Itunes Problem

Itunes refuses to play some CD's for me.
I put the disc in, and it gets the names of the tracks. I select play on any track, and it starts to play.
It plays for 4 seconds, then pauses to load. Then it continues playing for exactly 2 more seconds and freezes. Itunes will not respond, and soon my other programs quit working too.
If I quickly close Itunes, and all other programs and select reboot, the computer starts to shut down, but won't finish the job, and I'm forced to press the reboot key.
There is no predicting which CD's will freeze it and which won't.
Meanwhile, when I open the CD in Windows Media Player, it plays fine!
*** is up with that?

Figured it out! I tried updating the CD-drive's drivers and everything is working.
Thanks for nothing!

Weird iTunes Problem with Podcast

I have been stumped on this for several months now. My Escape Adulthood podcast has been listed in iTunes for a while now. I have three done episodes. Unfortunately, anytime anyone tries to download or preview episode #2 or #3 from iTunes, all they get is the audio from Episode #1, even though the title and description is different.
My feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/EscapeAdulthood and it works just fine in other aggregators, just not in iTunes. Of course, I've "Repported a Concern" several times and have heard nothing. Any ideas?

FYI...It ended up being a weird glitch in my blog software, Wordpress. Fixed it and it seems to be working now.

Weird iTunes problem!! HELP

Hi,
I've bought this brand new computer with Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit and everytime I open iTunes I get the message that iTunes is not propperly installed.
I had this a couple of versions before and everytime a new version was released I downloaded it but I couldnt instal them because there was some instal problem...
So eventually I uninstalled iTunes and just downloaded the new version from apple.com but I'm still having the same problem.
Does ANYONE knows what to do?

Weird iTunes problem when a song ends.

Has anyone had this problem recently?
Ever since I installed iTunes 7, I began having two problems, one was the music sounding scratchy and stuff, but that is solved. My other problem might sound a bit confusing. When a song ends, it will say that it is still playing, and it will either say it has 1 second left in the song, or 0 seconds. It's not some huge issue but I can't stand it, because I have to select a different song in order for it to go away. This would only happen every once in a while though.
BUT, I have installed the most recent version of iTunes 7. Ever since I installed that, it became worse. Whenever any song ends, it does this. This is where it's getting to annoy me.
Is there anything I can do?

... frequently - one song will begin playing over another.
That is, the prior song will not have ended, and the
new song will begin to play. This lasts anywhere
from 3-25 seconds. This began when I moved to the
first 7.x upgrade, and has continued since then.
Have tried to unistall 7.x and reinstall the last
6.x version, but have been advised the song list was
created with a newer version and will not allow
songs to play.
Is this discussion thread monitored by anyone from
Apple?
I have this same problem. For me it is very specific and consistently repeatable. Today I bought and downloaded Beethoven's Diabelli Variations. This album is 34 songs (in iTunes terminology). The way Beethoven wrote it, some of the songs are supposed to have no delay between them, and most are supposed to have a short period of silence between them. The ones that are supposed to be played with no delay "step on" each other for 5 seconds. (The last 5 seconds of song A are still playing while the first 5 seconds of song B are playing.) Surely Beethoven groans in his grave whenever he hears this, because I sure do. It sounds terrible.

Weird internet problem / ssl connection error, site loads in safari not in firefox or other way around

I really can't figure out this problem. Search the internet tried all kinds of things, nothing help so far.
I have a Macbook Pro (Lion originally installed) running on Mavericks (all latest updates). SSD installed and the DVD tray is replaced by the original HDD.
The laptop wasn't running very smooth anymore so decided to give it a fresh Mavericks install (even though I know it's not really necessary for mac, it helped, everything is much faster except a weird internet problem came up).
After freshly installing Mavericks I couldn't get into my google account anymore, just wouldn't load. Tried Safari (use this normally) and Firefox and Chrome, this last was gave a SSL connection error, both Safari and FF said the website couldn't be loaded because the server didn't respond. For Gmail I use Mailplane which is just stuck on a white page. I tried repairing the keychain, repaired disk and disk permissions, cleaned browsers, turned off firewall and antivirus (Shopos) started in safe mode, checked time settings which were all good. Nothing of this helped. I even ended up creating a usb bootdisk for Mavericks, formatted the disk and reinstalled from the start just Mavericks and nothing else, started Safari, still the same problem. As even this didn't help I figured it's not worth reinstalling all software so put back my backup.
Now I ended up somehow only being able to use Gmail normally in Firefox, Chrome still gives SSL error and Safari can load the inbox, but I can't open any messages. I get the error there is a problem with the connection. If I try in Basic HTML mode it surprisingly does work.
You would say, just use Firefox, finished...but the thing is that sometimes random websites won't load in Firefox, when I load the same site in Safari it works perfectly.
O yes, I also tried the connect to my iPhone and use the Cellular data network, then it's no problem using Gmail in Safari normally. You would say it's a router problem, but I have another Macbook Pro (just one model later running Mountain Lion) this one works perfectly with every browser. Also my iPhone does everyting logged into the WiFi network.
You can understand I really have no clue what's going on here, I don't see any logic. I can only think of a hardware problem in my Macbook, but don't see how that could cause these problems.
I hope someone is ably to help me ?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Itunes problem with windows Vista

ok i bought my touchsmart tx2 1025 with windows vista ultimate 64 bit and well i ve noticed that ..well since this is my third time i exchange this computer and i noticed there was a problem with the speakers when i was playing music that anytime during a song i would get this distorted sound like when u put a lot of volume in ipod headphones that it sounds like a crack. Well that happened in my computer even with low volumes.
However I played two times the same song on itunes and two times on windows media player.
Every single time on itunes the sound came as if the speakers were about to blow... like a crack..
Every single time on Windows media player it never sounded like that.
So i am pretty sure its an itunes problem. Does anyone know how to fix this.. i would rather use itunes than windows media player but i really hate the sound it makes sometimes because it shows about 2 to 3 times during one song.

It's possible that the song your playing does indeed have a little audio distortion in it, some media players are capable of filtering it out in a silent way, others play a beep, hence with one song I have, if i play it in windows media player it goes on and then for a split second theres a beep, iTunes doesent seem to do it, so instead of filtering out the missing data, it plays it.
This is more likley a problem with the song than iTunes

My computer failed and the main drive had to be formatted but all my music was on a separate internal hard drive. So I downloaded the latest iTunes , problem is it has found all my songs but seems to not recognize half of the album data, half of the artists, all of the dates and all ratings data.
I had a large part of it backed up on DVD's but it does not want to recognise them either?
Any tips?

You need to select the "Manage My Account" link and not the "Reset Your Password" link. Once you use the "Manage My Account" it will ask you to log in and in there you should see which email addresses are verified.

Hi..
Delete the app then reinstall.
Hold the app icon down until all the apps jiggle then tap the x then tap Delete. Press the Home button once or twice to stop the jiggling.
Then go to the iTunes store and re download the app.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
That should download the most recent version including whatever update was available.
You won't be charged again.

Problems with importing CDs - is it an iTunes problem or a computer problem

Hi,
I just purchased a new iMac in August, and have had problems importing audio CDs into my iTunes library. Sometimes the computer completely skips over certain songs when importing or the songs are imported but have parts skipped over, almost like the cd is skipping while it is importing. This is happening quite frequently, and it is happening with cds that I know aren't scratched, etc, so there is no reason that I can think of that these wouldn't be importing just fine. I'm wondering if this is an iTunes issue or a computer issue. I don't want to bring my computer in to get serviced if this is just merely an iTunes problem.
Thanks so much for your help!

No, just the touch events.
I think it's because I have an Apple multitouch pad but it functions as a mouse so it's actually sending two notices. It doesn't do it on a touch screen device nor does it do it when everything is switched to mouse events, so I think it's just unique to Device Central and this particular type of mouse.
