When using the player the music skips like an old LP used to do once it was scratched.

iTunes performance has always been generally sluggish on my computer (Windows 7) however my spotlite issue is when during playback the music skips / echos like the old LP's used to do once one was scratched. ( I use a 2TB external drive for iTunes ).

How to i get m3u's to show up in the music section like they did before?

Now when you try to play an m3u it starts in the internet songs section instead of the music section like it did before, is there any way to revert it back to opening in the music section instead?

Ooops, posted to the wrong thread.

When I open ical, the calendar looks like an old desk pad vs what is in the manual. How do I change the view (not month, day, week), but the background presentation?

When I open ical, the calendar looks like an old desk pad vs what is shown in the manual or on-line tutorials. How do I change the view (i.e. background) not the month/day/week view but the background template? The default in the manual is good. Software is current - Lion.

I have an apple certified refurbished iPod touch 3rd generatio. When playing the music with headphones, the music moves from song to song. When it is on a docking station, it repeats the song. Any ideas why or how to fix it?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Will The Music Skip On the Creative Zen To

Can some Answear my question plz: Will the music skip if im walking around with it in my pocket?, will it skip at all and how much force will it take to make it skip if it does?

BoyDe,
The speed at which a question on the forums gets answered can rely on several factors:
) Time of Day
2) Day of Week
3) How difficult the question
4) How busy the other categories are
5) What kind of question is it
and many other things. A general rule of thumb is that it may take several hours or even a day for there to be a reply. The reply to your question was up in about an hour and in the FAQ that was linked is an in depth answer to your problem.
The simple reply is, if you are just walking then no the music shouldn't skip. The FAQ goes into detail of what a "skip" is in the case of HDD based players. I am not sure if your read the FAQ or not, but you should as it is quite helpful.

When typing my password for opening my mac everything is normal until I type in any other field, then the keyboard sounds like an old typewriter and is exceedingly slow. Is there a software solution?

How do I get the music off of my old iphone?

How do I get the music off of my old iphone?

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

The music skip in some songs

I dont know why but some songs have errors because when are playing, the music blinks or skip a sec just like a data error, not all the music but much more that I can accept.
What are the options?
I think is because I backup the data almost a month and just copy the iTunes folder every time.. is there any way to just back up the new songs donwloaded? I dont do that because I dont want that if I made a change by iTunes, lose it if goes direct to folder..
PLease help..
On other question, exist any software to check the data and repair it?

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

WHEN WILL THE MUSIC SYNCING BUG IN IOS7 BE FIXED?

WILL AN **APPLE REP** PLEASE REPLY ??
My library randomly skips songs after upgrading to IOS7.3. This is probably not related to Mavericks, as Windows users are complaining about the same issue. I have tried ALL of the suggested fixes, wasting many hours of time needlessly dealing with this issue. The music syncing bug with IOS7 is completely unacceptable.
I have unsynced, re-synced, made a playlist with all of my tracks, done a full restore, and transferred purchases. After it seemingly copies all of my songs over, it still skips random tracks when I shuffle my songs. I then connect to iTunes, go to devices->transfer purchases, it copies the songs that were skipped, and then other songs skip.
THIS IS SOMETHING WHICH USED TO WORK AND NOW IS BROKEN.
There have been threads on this issue since at least October. Why has this not been addressed ? Music playback is a core feature of IOS devices. I have spent quite a bit of money actually buying music from Apple on my phone, and cannot listen to it. Is this just a ploy to force everyone to pay for iTunes Match (which would probably not work anyway?) I have been an Apple user for over 20 years, and this is really disconcerting. I hate to say it, but if Steve Jobs were still around, heads would have rolled over this issue by this point. All the pretty icons and UI tweaks in the world are less important than actual working functionality. What has become of AAPL ?

No, this is a user-to-user forum. If you want to speak to Apple Technical Support folks, you'll either need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or call them directly. Use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page.
Best of luck.

I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive and then tried to transfer it to my iMac. My music skips like a scratched cd now and I can't add any to my iPhone. Help please!

I have two apple id's one from my old laptop and one from my iPhone. I saved my iTunes library to my external hard drive right before my old mac laptop died and then tried to transfer it to my new iMac. Now when I try to play my old music it skips like a scratched cd. Also, now I can't add any music to my iPhone unless it was purchased recently through itunes and downloaded through icloud. I tried to "Organize" my library in hopes of correcting the problem but my iMac just ejects my external harddrive part way through. Please help!

Ejects the harddrive?
Of what did your old Mac die?
It sounds to me like you have some file corruption somewhere. Either in the transfer of your library to the external or the external itself is flaky if it keeps ejecting.

My music skips like a scratched cd!

This is the second time I'm asking. please? anyone? my music on itunes skips like a scratched cd. but i know it's not a problem with the music itself. i think it has something to do with windows media player interfering with itunes?

I have been fighting this problem for quite a while. Itunes 7.02 skips, but playback on ipod is fine. I already did all the things apple said to do: ie all the things at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610, ie updating itunes, updating audio drivers, no third party plug-ins, enabled Maximum Audio Hardware Acceleration, ensured sound enhancer was deselected, updated directX, and selected “wave out”. I even talked to apple and HP. My songs play on winamp and windows media player, but not on itunes. I re-installed quick-time with itunes many times. Then from searching on the web, someone said that HP dv computers for whatever reason do not work with the copy of quick-time that is downloaded with i-tunes from the apple website. I then deleted the quicktime only with the add/remove programs on the control panel. Then I downloaded the quicktime ONLY, from the apple website. I have now been skip-free for 8 hours. It may not be enough time yet to tell if this is the fix, but before I was skipping every song. Try it and see if it works for you.

On my iPad Mini (2013), How can I make it so, only my downloaded music is shown in the Music app, and not old music I haven't downloaded/ don't want on my iPad?

When I enter the music app, I just want to listen to the music that I've downloaded onto my device, not old music I don't want, but is still shown for streaming. Any help/ideas? I don't want to have to go offline just to listen to the music I want to listen to everytime

Why would you have to go offline to listen to music? Dosn't make sense.
However, you can set the app up to just show you tracks that are actually on the device: Settings app > Music > Show All Muisc [turn OFF]

When using the player the music skips like an old LP used to do once it was scratched.
