Why'd iTunes stop playing my CDs?

I just got my iPod Nano 4GB 2 days ago and have been having fun importing some of my CD collection into it. I've put in a lot of music and some podcasts and still a LOTS of space left.
This morning, after importing a CD, when I put the next CD into my computer, it didn't show up in the Source section of iTunes. No little picture of a CD with the title next to it. Hmmm...
I put in another and nothing. I put in another and still...nothing. iTunes isn't asking me if I want to import the CD. iTunes won't even play the CD.
What happened...and how do I fix it??
Thanks.

Hey! Everything seems to be working again.
I turned off the computer, re-booted, stuck in a CD and voila--iTunes asked me if I wanted to Import! And the CD is showing in my Devises Source.
So...if anyone else is having a problem like I was...if all else fails, unplug your iPod, exit iTunes, shut down and then re-boot.

  • Why does my iTunes stop playing when I close the lid on my laptop?

    I am playing iTunes on my Vista laptop and my setting are 'do nothing' for both powered and battery use, but when I close the lid iTunes stops playing music. Does anyone know why and how I stop it? Please don't say "don't close the lid..." Thanks.

    You have your answer... there is no way to stop iTunes from stopping playing music when the lid is closed.
    You can try adjusting the power settings, but if that's not working...there is no way for iTunes to override it.

  • ITunes stops playing music after 20 seconds

    Hi there, after upgrading my os to Mac OS 10.5.1 and iTunes 7.6, iTunes stops playing my tunes after about 20 seconds. I have no idea why this is happening???

    Try deleting the cache. Go to User Name>Library>Cache. Locate the iTunes cache file and delete that file.

  • ITunes stops playing after a few songs (my resolve)

    After about 5 songs I was getting perplexed why it would stop playing in the middle of a song (there was no audio) but the play button was still showing. It always happened in the middle of the 5th song or at toward the end and it ended up being my power settings to turn off the monitor after 20 minutes. The monitor never did shut off because it was my plazma tv connected hdmi. (It would flicker and come back on sometimes)
    Anyway I run XP MCE on a home made htpc. MCE Tunes (3rd party app to bring iTunes database into MCE). Thought this might help anyone that has this issue.

    Sorry...I didn't intend this to be posted in this forum.

  • ITunes stops playing songs/podcasts/etc whenever I move my mouse.

    I have no idea why this happens but its really aggrivating.

    when I move my mouse Itunes stops playing music. Sometimes this happens immediatly and sometime it take 10 to 15 sec.
    At various stages over the years, mouse-related iTunes trouble has been associated with driver conflicts. So it might be worth following up on that possibility.
    Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of PC, and check to make sure you're not behind on any chipset and input-device-related driver updates. (And while there, just in case, also check to make sure your BIOS, sound-card/integrated audio, and video-card/display-adaptors are up to date.)
    If you're behind on anything, and you update, does that help with the mouse-related iTunes issues?

  • Why does Spotify stopped playing when i do something else like browse facebook, go see my messages?

    why does Spotify stopped playing whenever i do something else on my phone like browse facebook, or read my phone messages, or open a link to read something? some other music apps like Jango lets you do whatever you want, but it keeps playing ur playlist.. i'm not even gonna mention how pitifully miniscule Spotify's music library is compared to this apps...ooops

    Hi. I feel your pain my friend.  This is so annoying it makes me want to cancel my "pro" subscription. I think it has to do with other audio from a web page (includes Facebook) overriding Spotify's audio. I have looked all over Spotify to see if there is an override the override setting.  I can't find it. Maybe this bumps up this thread so we get some sort of answer.  I wouldn't mind it even if we got it's not possible. At least then we'd know. That's the problem with forum posting - you never know if you're going to get an answer pee what kind of answer it may be.  As the headline says this forum is not sourced from Spotify. hoibie

  • Itunes stops playing on Windows 7

    I have just installed the most recent Itunes 64 bit for Windows 7 (10.6.1.7)
    Itunes stops playing after about 5 songs if there is nothing else running. If there is another program running, it happens after a minute.
    Everything seems to work except music playback. The play/pause command can be clicked but the progress bar won't move and no audio plays.
    The problem also occurs when Itunes is started in Safe Mode and also when a new library is created.
    I must close and restart to hear music another 4-5 songs before the situation repeats.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Music purchased and downloaded from iTunes will not play in the Windows Media Player.
    Try re downloading the album >

    since there is no info in your profile, which ma model, os, which iTunes you are using, limits anybody from delving deeper into your problem.

  • ITunes stops playing and cannot connect to Remote app whenever the computer display turns off??

    I have a Windows system with iTunes, and an iPhone with the Remote app installed, through which I use to play music on iTunes. Until recently iTunes would play regardless of whether my monitor was on or not, and I could connect to iTunes with the Remote app regardless of the monitor state. Now, however, after updating both iTunes and Remote with the new versions that came out around the time of the iPhone 4S release, whenever my computer turns off my monitor, iTunes stops playing at the end of the current song and the Remote app cannot find iTunes. This is not a system sleep state, I just have the power options set to turn off the monitor after 15 minutes of inactivity. Sleep and hibernate are disabled on the system and always have been, expressly for the purpose of allowing iTunes playback via Remote. If I jiggle the mouse and the system turns the monitor back on then I can manually reenable playback, and Remote can connect to iTunes again. I can't find any setting in Preferences that would control this. How do I fix this? Thanks.

    I'm so glad someone else is having this problem.  I am in exactly the same situation!
    1. Windows Vista
    2. Upgraded iTunes to 10.5 and upgraded remote with iOS 5
    3. My computer has never been set to sleep, but the monitor turns off after 20 mins.
    4. If the monitor goes to sleep, itunes stops streaming music and Remote can't connect to it
    5. If I change my monitor off time to 1 hour, then in 1 hour itunes will stop streaming - it is ABSOLUTELY connected to the monitor sleeping.  Almost like iTunes can't connect to the network the the monitor is off.
    Please help!  I have been using remote for a year and this didn't happen until I upgraded to iTunes 10.5.
