While playing songs, each songs skips at the beginning

Recently while listing to my ITunes on "shuffle", each songs skips at the beginning of the song as if there is a delay or something when switching songs. I ran OneCare to check for viruses, and I've tuned up my computer, so I don't know what else I can to do stop this. Please help!

Been having the same problems myself. And I don't know about you but sometimes it'll take a while to get it to actually play the first song.

Alana James Songs Skipping At The Beginning Of the Song

I purchased and downloaded 4 songs by Alana James, and at the beginning of three of the songs (Down The Line, Twenty-Four Hours A Day, and All The World And I) the playback skips for about 5 - 8 seconds. How can I resolve this?
Thanks.

When you're in the iTunes Store screen, click on support in the upper right corner, then find "Download Problems" (approx. mid-page) and click. At the bottom of the screen that opens is a way to email Apple with complaints/comments. Let them know about your bad downloads (maybe the files are bad?) and ask to re-download them.
With hope, they'll listen to the files and make sure they're okay, fix them if they're not, and then give you a chance to download good versions of the songs. Good luck!

While playing songs skip from song to song without playing entire song

My ipod shuffles thru songs playing parts of them on a random basis. I can not get it to stop however it does play some complete songs that were downloaded from a friends computer. I have tried everything but a restore. Has anybody had a similar issue.
thanks

Presuming that these are not all purchased songs from the iTunes Store, let's first try resetting your iPod.
To reset an iPod:
First toggle your iPod's "Hold" switch back and forth a couple of times (make sure to leave it on the white side of the switch).
Then, press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for 5-10 seconds.
You might need to try this several times before it works for you in any way. For more effect, try connecting your iPod to a power source while you reset it.
If several attempts at resetting don't seem to fix this issue, then I would suggest that you try restoring your iPod at this point.

While playing songs on my classic, they stop playing intermittently. I have to press "play" again to get them to play. I've restarted the iPod. No help there. Any ideas?

I, too, am having this problem with my classic today. It's just begun stopping itself once on each song I play today. I press the middle Select button to start it again, but this is getting very annoying! I haven't tried anything on mine today.
EDIT: I just realized that it's now doing this more than once per song. I just had this happen three times in a single 4 and half minute song. Any clues?

My ipod jumps, skips and slows down while playing songs. It is very annoying.

My ipod jumps, skips and slows down while playing songs. It is very annoying. Is it fixable??????

I have the same problem. Often, the songs worked perfectly fine before, even the previous day! Changing the format does not help either, nor does restoring iPod settings. In another case, a song WILL work after settings are restored, but after a few plays will return to its old state of making the ipod reset.

Ipod skipping to the BEGINNING of a song

Hey i bought my ipod classic 120gb about 11 months ago and sometimes it skipps to the beginning of the song i'm listening to as if i would press backwards. I usually have my ipod in a case in my pocket so it can't be me accidentally pressing any button!!! I think it doesn't have to do with particular songs, because it's always a different song and in the beginning, at the end or anywhere in the middle of the song. What i realized is, that when the ipod skips back to the beginning of the song i'm often accidentally pulling on the earphone cable. For example if im standing up or moving while sitting (like today), but it also happened while i was standing at a bus stop. Did anybody ever have the same problem or knows how to solve it? I'm grateful for any help!!! (my warranty runs out in a month and i need to know if i should send my ipod in quickly!)

Mmmmmm. Works OK for me. I've tried every variation I can think of. Play from playlist, play from library, shuffle on, shuffle off, single song repeat on/off, playlist repeat on/off.
WAIT !! Now I've found it !! It happens when I have the sidebar hidden and play a playlist from the PLAYLIST pane. Hitting Enter then takes me to the FIRST song in the playlist.
WAIT AGAIN !!! In the time it took to write the above, it changed again and works properly. Well properly is not really true. It works if I stay in the PLAYLIST pane. If I switch to the SONGS, ALBUMS or ARTISTS pane, enter does nothing. BUT, if I switch to the GENRES pane, enter starts the first song there. AND, if I've switched away from the PLAYLIST pane and switch back, enter then starts the first song in the playlist.
WOW !! That was a crazy ride. I think we can safely say that there is something awry.

Audio cuts out at random while playing songs in itunes

While playing songs in itunes audio will frequently drop out completely across the entire system. The song will still be in play mode but the track progress indicator doesn't move. There's no slowdown or spinning beachballs, activity monitor doesn't indicate any processes hogging resources, and there are no other noticeable effects other than zero audio output. The problem resolves temporarily if I pause itunes then click the volume up/down keys and click play again. Any clue as to how I might resolve this annoying issue?

Hi. What OS X release? (10.x.?) iTunes? On this G4 1,25 single now connected I got 10.4.11 and iTunes 7.0.2 Works fine.

Itunes plays songs; skips/repeats 10 seconds in

Okay at first I thought it was just something weird with my mp3 files...
But now this has happened to over 6 of my songs.
For some reason, the song will start; and it'll play until 10 seconds; and then skip to the beginning again.
Does anyone know anything about this?

I'm having a similar problem with a couple of songs so far. They stop after 45 seconds and go to the next song.

While playing songs in iPOD, Volume bar and Song time bar does not appear !

Hi ...
I bought a new 30G iPOD and have added nearly 500 songs. It worked fine for 2 weeks. But now it is experiencing an issue while playing songs - It does not show volume bar as well as Song time bar. But I checked the same for videos, it is working perfect.
Kindly help me resolve this issue ...
Thanks & Regards,

Sometimes, if you don't allow the screen to refresh before pressing another button, it gets stuck.
See this for help.
iPod "stuck" on the artwork or rating screen.
As you will see, updating the software can cure this.

Why do my songs skip to the next song mid way through the song?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

When I play music, it seems to 'skip' at the beginning

I listen to music a lot on my iphone. I noticed this originally on my iPhone 4 and was assuming that it was due to the slow processor and limited memory of the '4'. I recently upgraded to an iPhone 6 with 128GB of memory and it still does has the issue. It's almost like what you hear when an old vinyl record would skip ahead. It seems fairly consistent in that the same song skips in the same way.
I play the exact same MP3 files on other players and I don't hear the same issue. How can I troubleshoot/fix this problem??

Sorry that sounds like the file is damaged or recorded at a bit rate that is not compatible with the player.
I would also try creating new versions in iTunes on a computer, you can tweak the 'Import settings' to generate an MP3 or AAC audio file at various bit rates. Change the settings inside iTunes > Preferences > General tab, click the Import settings button.
Setup for MP3 at 192kbps or 128kbps.
Close the dialog, select the effected tracks and choose File > Create MP3 version (you can also use right click).
I'd rename the new copy to make it obvious whilst testing & then sync that to the device(s) and test playback.
Repeat with AAC at similar bit rates. Throw them into a playlist to make it easy to find them.
You can also look at the info for the troublesome files to see the bit rate & the format. AIFF/WAV are basically raw files from CD - these can cause buffering issues on some devices, they are huge too. It's generally better to use a compressed format (or try Apple Lossless).
If none of the above helps I'd throw the file into Fission to look at the waveform, if it has holes when zoomed in no amount of re-encoding will fix it, re-rip the file or re-download from the iTunes store (assuming it was a purchase).
